We’ve established beyond a shadow of a doubt that the Ezekiel 38/39 Russia, Iran, Turkey, et al., invasion of Israel takes place after the Rapture at the 6th Seal earthquake (Ezek. 38:18-20). 
.
That begs the question: How much time will it take for the first 5 Seals to be completed?

The 7-year Tribulation is divided into two 3 1/2 year periods with seven fascinating days in the middle.
.
The middle of the week begins with the New World Leader attempting to kill the 2 Witnesses...

These two dudes, whom we identified last week as Elijah and John come at the time of world chaos following the Rapture. Millions of people will have just disappeared into thin air, likely leaving behind a pile of clothes and fake body parts (false teeth, knees, hips and other implants)
.
While the world leaders are giving false explanations for the bizarre disappearance of so many (they'll probably blame it on UFOs), the 2 Witnesses will be tasked to witness first to the Jews about the need to turn back to God...

“And I will grant authority to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy for twelve hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth.” Rev. 11:3 
.
If these two Jewish men show up just before or just after the Rapture, it will immediately propel every Jew in the world back into their Bibles. Here's why...

If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (1John 1:9)
.
On first glance, the verse appears to mean we have to continually confess our sins in order for the Lord to forgive us our sins.
.
Many Bible teachers teach this verse is "God's bar of soap." NOT!!!!!

.
We're saved by what Jesus did, not what we do...grace, not works! So why do so many pastors teach that you must continually confess your sins in order to be forgiven?

The grand disappearance is the next big event in the Church Age. But who's paying attention? Not that many. Yet God says He'll tell us all about it through scripture. Can we know the date of the Rapture?

To commemorate the USA's 250th birthday, this week's article is about the War of 1812 and how we got our national anthem.

Every Bible prophecy pundit worth their salt knows the future 7-year Tribulation is central to all last-days prophecies. The Church Age concludes with our loud and wild vanishing act.

Those 7 years that follow the Rapture are all about God again making the Jews his number one priority after having scattered them around the world for almost 2000 years. 
.
And as He replants the budding nation of Israel in her God-given homeland, the Bible says she becomes a burdening stone for the whole world to deal with... Have you noticed Israel being in the news lately?

Revelation 20:4b is one incredible verse regarding the 7-year Tribulation. It’s describing beheaded Believers who had not taken the Mark of the Beast AND not worshiped the Beast or the Beast's image. 
.
These are massive numbers of people who missed the Rapture, and know what just happened. They'll be willing to die before they worship Satan and take the Mark to get food, etc. Their reward will be huge—they reign with Jesus for 1000 years.
.
To better understand that verse, there are two parallel verses that discuss event taking place earlier in the Tribulation...

There continue to be growing seeds of a spiritual awakening in Israel. They're not awake yet, but you can see the Lord is getting them ready.
.
Of course, it's not just the Jews who are spiritually blind today. There are several groups of likely Christians to whom God has not revealed His prophetic timelines.
.
For instance, the most damning characteristic of the a-millennials today is the insistence that Israel is over and done with. Those pushing that narrative will one day see the truth...

There’s an ad that I keep hearing on iHeart Christian Radio advertising a podcast called “I Choose Me.” Jennie Garth began the podcast in 2024 and has used the phrase to promote her conferences and a book.
.
Her contention seems to be: For you to be happy in life you need to put yourself first… it’s all about you. 
.
But Garth saying you should choose yourself to serve obviously flies in the face of what the Bible wants us to be seeking. The Bible says we’re to seek/choose God above self. She should be saying she chooses God over her self. What God wants, not what she wants...

I've been fortunate to visit the Isle of Patmos about 20 times. Patmos is, of course, the place to which John was banished after they couldn't boil him to death in Ephesus. Banished is a misleading word. The place is extraordinarily beautiful. In Ephesus the Romans tried to kill him, but at Patmos the locals provided John with food and water while Jesus personally showed him the future.
.
The first sentence John recorded is also misleading in most English translations...

The three most important dispensations for Believers to fully understand today are the age of Israel, the Church Age and the Tribulation. Each is separate and distinct from each other.
.
Because of those dispensational distinctions, most pure dispensationalists believe the Rapture is not in the Gospels because the Church Age was hidden from the Jews. 
.
Let me tell you why I think the Rapture is indeed in the Gospels.

The Gate Beautiful lined up with the Nicanor Gate which separated the Women's Court with the Court of the Israelites (men's court). From there the line-of-sight went all the way to the curtain in front of the Holy of Holies.

Therefore, when the ashes of the red heifer were burned on the Mount of Olives across the Kedron Valley there was a direct line-of-sight from the Eastern Gate to the Holy of Holies, where God dwelled.

For over 30 years, Chuck Missler opened his radio broadcasts saying the Bible was 66 books written by 40 authors. With his incredibly large listening audience, that stat of 66 books in the Bible seemed to be ironclad.
.
So when I recently made the comment that there were 70 books in the Bible, it raised a lot of eyebrows...

The Bible is a book of serious boundaries. A big boundary to note is Israel’s borders. So demanding that Israel give up her land boundaries for peace with anybody, for any reason, should never have happened as it's not Biblically permitted. Israel is back in the promised land, but is grappling in the darkness because she lacks God's Spirit.
.
But a lot of God's boundaries in scripture are about Believers taking responsibility for their decisions...

Anyone who's studied last-days Bible prophecy usually has a natural curiosity about who might be the Antichrist. After all, he’s a central figure in last-days prophecies as he comes bursting on the scene after the Rapture.
.
Could Trump qualify as the Antichrist?

Simply stated, Satan loathes God. Therefore he loathes humans who are made in the image of God. He hates our looks, He hates our DNA; he would just as well have all of us dead. The more dead the merrier. 
.
An unsaved human, dead from war, drugs or whatever, is one less human who could get saved and go to heaven. 
.
Satan and his demon angels are alert to people who are hearing the Gospel and will try to stop them from believing the Gospel...

The Rapture is the next big prophetic event on the Christian calendar, marking the end of the Church Age.
.
Exactly when the Rapture specifically takes place is unknown, but we know the Tribulation closely follows that mysterious vanishing act by Born Again Believers.

Since the Rapture and Tribulation are so closely tied together (50 days apart?*), if we can see signs of the Tribulation being close at hand, we know we’re even closer to the Rapture. 

This Sunday is Easter Sunday. It's THE most important Christian day each and every year.
.
We should celebrate Easter/Resurrection Sunday on the Sunday after Passover. That's fact, end of story. But that's not the day most Christians celebrate Easter...

We think there’s a good chance the Rapture-rescue of Church Age Believers will take place on the Feast of Rosh Hashanah… in whatever is God’s chosen year to end the Church Age and begin the 7 years of Tribulation judgment.
.
But let’s explore a theory that IS possible. Not likely, but is a possibility. Some peeps believe the Rapture will happen at Pentecost. The late great Chuck Missler believed this, so it has some merit...

In 2013 while on one of their trips to Israel, Bill and Susie Perkins began kicking around an idea for a Christian historical novel.
.
The purpose of the book would be to show the accuracy of the Bible, the importance of Bible prophecy and the Jewish connection to all Believers worldwide.
.
By 2018, even though Bill and Susie had a rough idea of how the book would flow, neither were novel writers. But God brought a novel writer into their life—Buck Storm. And Buck was not just another novel writer, he was an award-winning and quite successful novel writer.
.
When it was finished, it turned out to be a page-turner! It follows the life of Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea, bringing to life what it was like living at the time of Christ.

There’s a lot of garbage floating around regarding Iran, Russia, Israel, etc., both on the web and even from pulpits. Sigh.
.
Poor theology being promoted has caused a lot of confusion as we watch the recent USA/Israel pummeling of Iran. Sadly, most people just seem to be misunderstanding basic Bible prophecy.
.
So here are a few unchangeable truths that should help anyone figure out what’s going on using an accurate prophetic view.  

700 years before the birth of Christ, the prophet Isaiah proclaimed to the Jewish nation that their Messiah would be born through a woman.
.
By using the name “Immanuel,” which in the Hebrew means “God with us,” the Lord used Isaiah to build on Genesis 3:15 which specifically ties the future Messiah to a baby from a female. But did Jesus inherit Mary's genes?

In the picture above, Israel is in red, and all the green countries are Israel's sworn Muslim enemies. Why should we as Christians support Israel at all costs? Find out in this week's eNews...

Luke, a successful physician in his day, looked first at the cause of the ailment, not the symptoms. More importantly, Luke never prescribed a single pill. A lot has changed since then...

As we approach the end of the Church Age, the Bible warns us not to be deceived. And that the last days deception would go from bad to worse.
.
But it also states that the deceivers themselves are continually being deceived. Which means Satan has to deceive his own followers to follow him and do his dirty work...

Capitalism, principles related to wealth, work and property rights, is taught in the Bible. It’s a system in which individuals or private groups own property and businesses with the goal of making a profit. 
.
Within capitalism is the framework from which Believers can choose to use their gift(s) by working hard at whatever they choose to do/managing what God is allowing in their lives. 
.
Most importantly, Believers must always keep their eyes on the eternal God, not temporal wealth. Never forget, the most important thing in life is who goes to heaven and who goes to hell.

The first thing that usually comes to mind regarding giants in the Bible is Goliath—of the Bible story of David and Goliath. You know the slingshot story in 1Sam. 17 that took place about 1020 BC. 
.
Goliath was a Philistine warrior whose height was around 9’ 10” tall… that’s tall! He was connected to the Rephaites through his family tree. (2Sam. 21:15-22)
.
The Raphaites are linked to the Anakim who were the sons of Anak who are linked to the Nephilim. (Deut. 2:10-11; 20-21) And the Nephilim, as most Bible prophecy pundits know, were giants living before and after the Flood of Noah. They were the evil kids born from human women having illicit sex with fallen angels...

What an exciting time to be alive! Almost everything we read about these days is connected to Bible prophecy. It's hard to watch/listen to the day's world news without seeing some kind of Biblical tie-in. 

Unfortunately, a lot of untruths have been circulating in the Christian community regarding the status of Israel’s Red Heifers. Here are the facts.

One of the many Biblical characteristics of the last-days nation of Babylon is that she is God’s military hammer over the whole earth. The United States fits this description as she was the winner of WWI in Europe. And she was the winner of WWII in Europe and Japan. She has 128 military bases in over 50 countries, plus over 100 military sites/agreements or smaller facilities.
.
And if we’re living in the last days before the Rapture, what President Trump is doing with the United States military fits last-days Bible prophecy of God's military hammer like a glove. 

On Paul’s Second Missionary Journey around 50 AD, he traveled across Asia and across the Aegean Sea into what was then referred to as the Roman district of Macedonia—what we now call Europe. 
.
After he left Thessalonica, the new Believers had questions so he wrote them a letter (1 Thessalonians) and one of the first things Paul writes about is the Rapture...

Andy Woods famously quipped at a Steeling the Mind Bible Conference—“There’s not one problem I have that won’t be fixed when the Rapture happens.”
.
What a statement! Regardless of how old you are, where you were standing/sitting/sleeping, how long you’ve been a Believer, or if you rise from the dead or are translated from the earth, you won’t be disappointed in the results of the Rapture!
.
I've pondered—what happens to the different groups of Believers after the Rapture?

God is a rewarder to those who are putting Him first in their lives. But it’s interesting that few people talk about the Bible teaching that spiritual rewards can be lost.
.
But again, we’re talking about rewards, not salvation. Salvation is dependent on what God did, not what we do or don’t do. But He will reward us for the good things we allowed Him to do through us. Will we have crowns to cast at the Lord's feet?

One of the most important events in the Bible is the Rapture/rescue of Born Again Believers at the end of the Church Age. We know the Bible says the mystery of the Gentile inclusion in God’s redemptive plan was hidden from the Jews. Did God hide the Rapture in the Old Testament, like he did with the Church Age?

Several hundred people were having great difficulty in worshiping with freedom, so they began to speak out about their commitment to Jesus and their desire to follow only the writings of the scriptures. These people became known in England as the “Separatists.”

On our last Holyland trip around the Mediterranean this past October, I couldn’t help but notice the proliferation of “evil eye” products everywhere we stopped, regardless of the country. 
.
So what’s with all the “evil eyes”?

One of the funniest television lines of the 1960s came from comedian Flip Wilson playing a character he made up named Geraldine.
.
Geraldine, when caught red handed in sin, would defend herself by hilariously pleading, “The devil made me do it.” That line was repeated millions of times by Believers and non-believers alike as an excuse for sin.
.
Funny thing is, like any good joke, there's actually some truth to it. Satan IS behind all sin committed. Will sin continue in the Millennium?

Veterinarians are beginning to go through the same thing doctors are experiencing: loss of trust. 
.
You see, a vet is also under the thumb of the pharmaceutical industry, whom they were taught in vet school to trust. And, vet practices are profit-making enterprises that have to look at the bottom line like any other business.
.
Just like Big pHARMa sees a sick patient on pills as an income stream, to many, a pet on pills is better than a cured pet.

Thankfully, pet owners are waking up and seeking "holistic" vets...

Once we finished our cruise, Athens to Athens, we flew to Israel for 5 more jam-packed days. Puff puff. The nice thing about the cruise is there's plenty of free time to work on eNews, etc. But in Israel there is little time as we go non-stop morning to night. And Susie and I barely make it to bed! All that to say, this eNews will have little to share, sorry!!

Believers who take the Bible literally are excited about likely being on earth during the next dispensational change.
.
The next dispensation change is, of course, when Jesus removes the Church from the earth, brings His wrath for 7 years, and then comes to reign as King of earth for 1000 years.
.
However, those who don’t take the Bible literally have to worry about the end of the world. 

Last week my youngest daughter Taylor questioned me how Christians could be involved in Halloween. After listening to her cite verse after verse, I said "write all that down" ...and she did. She took no prisoners. Enjoy!

One of the prophesied characteristics of Israel returning to her promised land is that she would have an “exceedingly great” army. God knew Israel, a tiny nation of about 8 million Jews, would be surrounded by some 550 million Muslim enemies. 
.
Drawing from her past, today Israel is a model of fighting efficiency. She’s the strongest army by far in the Middle East.

Most everyone who studies Bible prophecy from a pre-millennial/pre-tribulation position is watching as President Trump tries to put in place a peace treaty between Israel and many nations.
.
All this peace treaty interest comes from the famous prophecy we refer to as Daniel’s 70 Weeks, Daniel 9:24-27...

September 24, 2025 WAS BY FAR the most interesting and exciting Rosh Hashanah we've ever celebrated...

Hope you can join our live webcast at 8 AM Pacific Time, 11 AM Eastern Time. Tune in to compass.org/tv for the countdown to sunset in Jerusalem when the last trumpet blast is blown.

I have taught for many years that the 7oth Week of Daniel/God's Wrath would take place in the last seven years of the Church Age. Most seem to teach that today. But since God's Wrath is its own dispensation, I now wonder if we should treat it separately.
.
And notice that all those Creation week verses above show the Rapture coming between the 2,000 year Church Age and the 1,000 year reign of Christ as King of the earth.
.
That makes for a solid case for the Rapture occurring AFTER the 2000 years, or AFTER 2032/2033.

If we're taking Scripture literally, wouldn't everything that happened before the flood in the "days of Noah," happen to the Church before the Rapture since Matthew 24:37 says "For the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah? 
.
But there is one more trait the Bible mentions that few people tie into the Noah/Rapture comparison. It's part of the description in Genesis 7 of the pre-flood activities—God gave Noah a 7-day warning before He closed the door of the ark. So could we also get a 7-day notice before Rapture?

Have you noticed that many people have that deer-in-the-headlights look when you share prophetic scripture with them? Only a few Christians seem to connect the dots.

If you’re reading this you’re probably like me, watching and waiting for all the latter-day prophecies to take place. That puts us in a special category.

And having the privilege of watching prophecy unfold in front of us is nothing we deserve, the Lord just by His grace, allowed us to learn.

God chose us to know what we know and He wants us to share it with those in our sphere of influence—family, friends, co-workers...

The first four major events of the Church Age took place exactly on the first four Jewish spring Feasts that are commanded by the Lord.

I highly doubt that’s a coincidence.

And as you can see, the next feast in line is the fall Feast of Trumpets (AKA Rosh Hashanah) where the Jews celebrate by blowing trumpets (a Ram’s horn) for two days.

At the end of the two-day celebration, at sunset, they have one last, long-blowing of the Ram’s horn, called the Last Trump.

Paul says the Rapture will take place at the last trumpet...

Why do we support Israel? The main reason is that God says they are special to Him. God didn’t say to support Israel if they were doing everything correct.  He wants us to look for ways to support Israel, not look for ways to condemn her.

I would encourage all Believers to support Israel at every opportunity...

Despite popular pastors assuring their flocks that "Satan is entirely predictable," the Bible warns that Satan is anything but predictable and often comes as a deceptive “angel of light” and his ministers as “ministers of righteousness” (2 Cor. 11:14-15). To teach that Satan is “entirely predictable” is a far cry from putting on the “whole armor of God” and standing fast against “the wiles of the devil” so we “may be able to withstand in the evil day.”

Next month, September 22-24, Israelis will be celebrating Rosh Hashanah, the 5th of seven national feasts/celebrations designated by the Lord to occur at specific times during the year.

During Rosh Hashanah the Jews blow the ram's horn/trumpet 100 times. The last blowing is one great long blast at sunset, i.e. the "last trumpet." Will Believers hear it this year?

There are lots of theories about what the “unpardonable sin” is. The first time you read that it's usually an eye-opener—even for Believers. The key to proper understanding it is its context...

Compass was founded 32 years ago with the expressed purpose of defending the accuracy of every word of the Bible, in their original languages, from Genesis 1 to Revelation 22.

The word “inspired” in 2Tim. 3:16 is the Greek word “theopneustos,” and means “divinely inspired.” So taking every word of the Bible literally is a no-brainer—they are God's Words, not man's. Therefore, if God said it, we defend it.

There’s a great gathering at the beginning of the Millennium. Who's gathered, what’s the purpose and from where? 

Since many don't understand dispensational divisions in scripture, every few years it becomes necessary to bring our more recent subscribers up to date on why the cross (specifically Acts 2) is a major dividing line between the Old and New Testaments, not Matthew 1. So, what book closes the Old Testament?

Christian Zionism is a belief most prominent among solid Born Again, evangelical and theologically dispensational Believers who support the establishment of the modern state of Israel.

This group believes Israel being in her homeland is a fulfillment of Biblical prophecy—a scriptural prerequisite for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. All of which necessitates a literal view of scripture.

We support Israel because we believe the biblical account of her past, present, and future (Romans Chapters 9,10,11). 

Big pHarma's grip on the medical community seems to be finally coming to an unglorious end. Back in the 1950s they claimed their va((ine cured polio. And they've used that claim as their gold card to do pretty much whatever they wanted.

Then came Covid. When the dust settled, we could see their true colors. They opened themselves to scrutiny and now we know they recklessly distributed a poisonous concoction that continues to kill and maim people worldwide...and the numbers are still growing...

As we breathlessly watch all the reports of Iran and Israel launching missiles at each other, CNN is reporting that 75% of all Americans support President Trump taking whatever action necessary to keep Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons. CNN! 

The prophet Ezekiel, who lived most of his life in Babylon during Israel’s 70 years of captivity, predicted in the latter days that Persia (Iran) would be an enemy of Israel. 

Ezekiel also said Persia (Iran) would invade Israel, along with other nations led by Russia. But what we are watching today going on between Israel and Iran is NOT this often-discussed Ezekiel 38/39 invasion. Here’s why…

Big pHarma's built hundred-billion-dollar pharmaceutical businesses suppling drugs and va((ines that the FDA recommended. Through numerous studies we've posted in the past in our eNews, we've discovered Big pHarma has gained control of the government agencies that approve all drugs and vaccines.

And through the people they control, the FDA approved many, if not most drugs, without proper testing.

But we're finally seeing some movement against Big pHarma unchecked control...

I, like many others, was duped throughout my lifetime with the notion that salt was bad. The Big pHarma-controlled physicians and media constantly referred to salt as being a terrible thing to consume. 

I found myself consciously and subconsciously avoiding salt as much as possible. 

But my wife, Susie, pointed out to me that the Bible totally contradicts avoiding salt with the point-blank statement in Mark:

Salt is good; Mark 9:50

Our docs say one thing, God says another. Guess who's correct? God, of course! 

Anyone wishing to understand anything about Bible prophecy related to the last days must correctly understand the Book of Daniel, and specifically Daniel 2 and 9:24-27.

We, as Believers living in the Church Age with Holy Spirit scriptural enlightenment, can more easily understand Daniel's and John's scriptures about the latter days. So let's have some fun looking at some specific latter day prophecies our adversary didn't want us to know!

Not long after the creation week, Satan rebelled (he sinned big time), and set his sights on God’s image. For 6000 years, he’s been lying out the wazzu. And his lies have taken a toll on the human race.

But Satan’s all-time objective is to destroy God’s image. He wants all humans dead. If he can’t murder them, then he wants to stop them from multiplying.

The food offered in the USA is horrible. Much like Big Pharma, which has lobbied/controlled much of our government’s pharmaceutical approvals, Big Food is just as guilty. 

How foods get approved in the U.S. to begin with is, of course, suspect. Much of what they have approved for Americans to eat simply shortens our lifespans... 

Recently, I read an article about a new personal payment technology that reads your eyes instead of requiring people to have a password to access your funds. Called “Worldcoin,“ puts a tight lid on the security of your funds. 

The article’s author compares the future Mark of the Beast to the Worldcoin system. And on the surface, it seems like it could be a good fit. But, trying to be a Berean (Acts 17:11), our main question is always, “Does it fit scripture?”

The recent news headlines about Iran's dock explosion are prophetically rich in numerous ways! 2600 years ago the Bible prophesied that Iran (Persia changed its name to Iran in 1932) would be one of the major nations involved in the Ezek. 38/39 post-Rapture invasion of Israel.

So we’re watching world events play out in the run-up to that invasion.

Jewish men began wearing kippahs around 150-200 AD. There is no requirement to cover one’s head, but it’s considered a symbol of reverence to God. Why? Find out their reasoning...

It's Easter weekend!  It's time to celebrate THE most important Christian event in history.

To compromise Easter, Satan tries to shift the emphasis from the incredible God-inspired account of the death, burial and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, to Easter eggs. Satan doesn’t want our children growing up understanding what happened during the Passion Week. 

This eNews "Lite" shares some pics of just a few of the places we've been. We have more sites to see in Jordan and should be home by the weekend.

Plus a "You Said Nothing" post that is quite interesting!

And, of course, a couple of gotta-see "Additional Resources!"

Enjoy a few pics of our first few days of our Holyland trip. It's a good one so far! Among other things, we had baptisms in the Jordan River...

I read an article recently by Michael Snyder, who was lamenting the fact that so many people seem to be “not right”—people whose actions make no sense whatsoever!

All those nutty decisions, all those hard-to-believe statements we’re seeing every day (mostly coming from the far-left liberals and the massive numbers who took the vax) are from people who have rejected God, His Word, and His provision for salvation. 

And if they don’t repent, it doesn’t end well for them...

Certainly one obvious purpose for the Rapture is to get Believers out of harm's way. Immediately after the Rapture our entire planet will undergo one horrible 7-year period of God’s deadly and destructive wrath. Thankfully, our exit is before God’s wrath even begins.

However, the most important result of the Rapture is not missing the pain, but rather that our bodies are transformed...

It's Steeling Conference Weekend!

Nothing gets our juices flowing more than a room full of Born Again Believers being taught by top Christian speakers on fascinating Bible subjects! Watch it live on our website Saturday, March 15th!

It's quite likely we're living so close to the end of the Church Age that you'll witness all 12 of these prophecies being fulfilled! How cool is that!

Last summer I, like most people, thought the USA was dying a slow death. Every facet of our government was in an unbiblical and unapologetic state of decline. 

I was hopeful Trump could get elected to slow down some of the Satanic influence and ungodly principles being shoved down our throats. I have to admit I prayed prayers that the Lord would give us a reprieve. 

In my wildest imagination I never dreamed the Lord would answer our prayers with this much happening so fast! We can only marvel at all the decisions President Trump is making. 

When Jesus walked on the earth there were two major, and one minor, political parties. The two major parties, the Pharisees and the Sadducees, made up the majority of the 70-member supreme court of Israel, called the Sanhedrin. The Essenes were the third group—they separated themselves from the rest of Israel, living down near present-day Qumran on the northwestern edge of the Dead Sea.

Who were Biblically the most accurate?

In Part 1 we covered Israel entering into the Tribulation with a 7-year Peace Treaty. In Part 2, midway through the Tribulation the New World Leader breaks the peace treaty, surrounds Jerusalem, and attempts to kill all of the Jews. 

The Jews were clearly warned this would happen and were even given a sign to know when to drop everything and run for the hills...

As Chuck Missler often said, “If you want to know where we are on God’s world time clock, watch Israel.” Indeed!

Once God brings the Church Age to an end with the Believers' “Great Whoosh,” Israel will return as His main world emphasis... 

Can we know the year of Rapture? The answer is “maybe.” Here are the clues God gives us... We believe the six 24-hour days of creation and one 24-hour day of rest is a template for all human history. And it fits like a glove. 

God equates a single 24-hour day to 1000 years in two places in scripture. Think about it, on the first four days of God’s creation, no life was created. On the 5th and 6th days life was created. And on the 7th day He rested...

Heaven is the eternal residence of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Currently God the Father and Jesus are in heaven, and the Holy Spirit resides in Believers on earth, but will depart at the Rapture so Jesus can come again to the earth. 

When Believers die in the Church Age, they go straight to be with Jesus in heaven. So where IS Heaven?

Once Trump gets sworn in and starts on his attempt to right the American ship, time will finally shed some light on what the Globalists/Satanists have up their sleeve for America. 

As we move closer to the Rapture, no one in their right mind thinks it will be clear sailing ahead for President Trump—here or abroad. 

The Bible says the U.S. is 100% destroyed in one day, even in one hour, immediately following the Rapture.

To prove this you first must confirm that the U.S. in the Bible. Here are 7 verses that are hard to argue with!

All have to do with an end-time nation in existence just before the Rapture. Who is this nation?

Sacrifices to atone for sins started outside the Tabernacle and continued in the Temple (except during the 70-year captivity) through the time of Jesus and up to 70 AD when the Temple was destroyed by the Roman Army. 

Today, there is only one place a sacrifice can be made and that is on Mt. Moriah, on the Temple Mount. The Rabbinical Jews who study the Old Testament KNOW they cannot get right with God without making a blood sacrifice to cover their sins. 

So there's a movement in Israel today to rebuild their Temple and go back to sacrifices. But currently, in order to keep peace, Israel allows the Muslims to administer all activities on the Temple Mount. That will immediately change after the Rapture...

I recently had a conversation with someone I’m pretty certain is a Believer. She, in no uncertain terms, let me know how much she detested Israel. 

She rattled off several points in fast succession to defend her hatred of God’s chosen—none of which were true but all are making the rounds on social media and from deceived Bible teachers. All these lies are coming from our adversary, not God. 

I was recently dismayed to read an article published by a respected online ministry.

The author was lamenting how the Church as a whole seems to be doing more entertaining instead of evangelizing.

The idea that bright lights, secular-sounding music and watered-down sermons will keep people in the pews simply misses the purpose of going to Church...What is the purpose of Church?

Big Pharma’s total revenue from the Covid va((ine was in the hundreds of billions of dollars; it probably now has exceeded over a trillion dollars.

So what does God think about all this death and disability from all the drugs, not just the Covid va((ines, distributed by mostly American companies?

Apparently He is not happy. There is a country in the Bible that in the last days of the Church Age distributes drugs worldwide.

This nation, obviously the USA, distributes drugs to all the nations of the world...and she is severely punished/wiped out in one day...

Compass was founded on the principle that every word of the Bible was inspired by God as recorded in their original languages. 

We defend all scriptures from Genesis 1 to Revelation 22 using a literal hermeneutic from a pre-millennial, pre-tribulational doctrinal perspective. So when it says in Ezekiel 38:13 that cattle will be captured along with gold and silver, it literally means cattle!

The article this week is quite interesting and eye-opening. It's a book critique of Naomi Wolf's new book, The Pfizer Papers.

The author does an incredible job and shares statistics that boggle the mind as well as points out the obvious conclusions about what's going on behind the scenes that are beginning to be revealed.

Behold, the Lord came with many thousands of His holy ones, to execute judgment upon all, Jude 14b-15a

Jesus returns at the end of the Tribulation to defeat Satan’s armies who had gathered at the valley of Har-Meggido (Tel Megiddo), what today is referred to as the Valley of Armageddon.

So the question is, who are these “Holy Ones" who come with the Lord?”

Petra is 99% likely to be the place described in Isaiah 2, Matthew 24 and Revelation 12, where the Jews flee to safety from the Antichrist at the mid-point of the 7-year Tribulation.

If you've never been to Petra, and/or wish to see it again, we'll be heading to Israel in April (March 30 to April 10) to see incredible Biblical sites AND tour Petra also.

It’s fascinating to contrast the Book of Genesis with the Book of Revelation!

With all the evil we see going on around us, it’s easy to forget how close we are to a TRUE world peace.

It won’t be long before Jesus rescues His born again Believers from the horror that’s coming. And we’ll return with Him at His Second Coming to reign with Him on an earth. It will be an earth totally transformed from what we have today.

Why do the Arabs do what they do? To understand the reason, we have to go back to the time of Abram, who God later renamed Abraham.

The Bible gives us some insight into the Arabs...

The most interesting question is: Is the Lord now allowing Trump to take office so we could have four years of conservative prosperity... followed by another three years or so of whoever succeeds Trump? THEN the Rapture happens followed by the Tribulation?

Only the Lord knows the timing of all the prophesied last days events. As unlikely a scenario it is that Trump will be allowed back in office, it IS a possibility.

So we can have hope for the next three weeks that the Lord will answer our prayers. Not that we deserve a conservative leader, but because He is a merciful God.

It won’t be long until the Internet will be worthless for information due to so many AI fakes. It’s coming faster than you can imagine. Already we have to second guess just about everything on the web. We don’t know if what we’re seeing is real or fake.

You have to admit, this is an exciting time to be alive! Before the foundation of the earth was laid, God chose you and me to be here on this earth at this time—knowing the pending dispensational change from the Church Age to God's  horrible wrath in the Tribulation is about to take place.

He chose us to warn others that we expect the Rapture (our rescue from God's wrath) to happen. We don't know when, but it could be soon!

Some 2600 years ago the Prophet Ezekiel wrote three remarkable chapters about Israel returning to her God-given land (Ezekiel 37) and later being invaded by several nations (Ezekiel 38, 39).

There’s probably not one Bible prophecy lover alive today who hasn’t read and researched these verses and noticed that God is in control of the invasion.

For us today, the question is when will all this occur?

For those relatively new to Compass, we’ve already established in past articles that the United States IS in the Bible as the latter-day Babylon. This article dives into the timing of America’s fall and the Rapture. We’ll answer the question “Has America already fallen?”

Rosh Hashanah is one of the seven mandatory feasts when the Jews blow the ram’s horn 100 times over the two-day feast celebration and end with a final last blowing of the shofar... Find out why!

Join us Friday, October 4, 2024, 8 AM Pacific Time.

We'll be live online celebrating the last trumpet blowing of the Jewish Feast of Rosh Hashanah. Will the Rapture be this year?

Hidden in scripture: When you read the meanings of the names in order, in a sentence, it reveals a knock-your-socks-off hidden message.

As Believers, we know that in the end we win. And the bad guys will all eventually burn in the lake of fire for eternity. But if we’re in the last act of their worldwide show, what’s their current end-game? They can’t lie like this forever.

Luke 3:4-6 quotes Isaiah the prophet who says the purpose of the earth being shook so badly is for the entire earth to see the glory and power of God.

Was John Darby first to teach Pre-Trib Rapture doctrine? Hardly. Know the facts to ward off those non-dispensational ding-a-lings.

It’s interesting that red often represents sinful things like Santa Claus, Satan, the whore of Babylon, Buddhist Monks, high Catholic priests (Cardinals), the robe the Romans put on Jesus, and the Crimson Tide.

We’re left to wonder, do the bad guys want us to believe that they are in complete disarray and are running in circles so they can spring their next trap? Or are they actually losing their power grip?

Before beginning His earthly ministry around the age of 30, Jesus would have worked with His dad, Joseph, learning a trade. It’s not likely he was a carpenter as trees were scarce and rotted quickly in the dense humidity of Galilee.

These are three Rapture scenarios to consider... but no one knows for sure!

The Antichrist, or false-Christ, shows up halfway through the Tribulation when Satan is thrown to the Earth. Since Satan is a spirit being, he will need a body, so he takes over the slain body of the New World Leader.

All this is painfully obvious to any Believer with two brain cells. It’s clearly laid out in the Bible for those who have Holy Spirit illumination. The rest of the non-Believing world (and even some Believers) will be caught totally flat-footed.

Russ Miller is one incredible teacher. He's a gifted communicator. The theme for the entire trip might be summed up with the words, "by grain size, weight and density"... which is how the layers were formed all over the earth.

They were laid down by Noah's flood's swirling waters... the heaviest settling first, then the next heaviest, and so on until the last and lightest layer was formed at the top.

Observe the global nature of the pandemic response. The new religion of Science took the world in its iron grip, and over a few days, every single world government signed a legal loyalty oath requiring them all to respond in exactly the same way.

But universal agreement is not human. Humans never easily agree on anything.

How then did the entire world fall into line in a few days? How did they achieve universal agreement to supplant the long-standing, inarguable goods of truth, transparency, and trust with a brand-new lodestar, a new universal faith offering redemption to the human race — Science?
We must look for a non-human cause.

The coming 7-year peace treaty sets in motion God's horrific wrath on earth. So if we're close to the Rapture, we should be seeing the world moving toward peace with Israel as the heavy/burdensome stone.

Last week, for the second week in a row, when we sent out the link to our eNews we had posted on Compass.org, there were so many people clicking on it that it crashed our server!
To keep this from happening in the future, we had to upgrade/increase our server RAM and it should be fine in the future. I have to say it's quite humbling to have so many people trying to open our eNews that the server couldn't handle it! Amazing! But it's good to go now!

Just as Jesus had 3 1/2 years on the earth to glorify God, heal people, and do good things, Satan will have 3 1/2 years on earth to glorify Satan, make people sick, and do horrible things.

Jesus would have followed the Old Testament Law including the dietary laws in Leviticus 11. So He would have eaten only clean animals. In those days, few people were fat.

This is proof that the Dome of the Rock is NOT built over the site of the previous two Jewish Temples.

"...for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived." Rev. 18:23b, could be translated, "for by your drugs all nations were deceived." Rev. 18:23b

This will be an eye-opener for a lot of people—great STEEL ON STEEL! Many will not have heard this explanation of this key prophetic verse!

One of the most incredible privileges of being a believer is having direct access to God. The creator God of the universe, Who spoke all things into existence, allows us to communicate directly, one on one, with Him 24/7.

The Believers in the Church Age are the Bride of Christ—and the Old Testament Believers are the “invited” and “blessed” guests.

I suspect those who die as martyrs in the Tribulation will also be invited. But the Bride of Christ is ONLY for the Church Age Believers.

Today humans are limited to experience life through five senses. We can see, smell, hear, touch and taste. But when we get to heaven God can give us new eyes that can see the entire spectrum. With new eyes we’ll be able to see trillions of brand-new colors we’ve never seen.

On Easter, most decent churches teach various scriptures regarding Jesus' last week before His crucifixion. So we backed up a week to see what was going on the week before the last week to understand the events leading up to the Passion Week in 33 AD.

God instituted the sacrifices as a key part of Israel’s Theocracy. He wanted to personally fellowship with His Chosen People and could only do so if they were cleansed by the blood of specific sacrificial animals.

31 years of STEEL ON STEEL by the best and brightest Bible teachers in America sets the Steeling the Mind Conference apart from all others.

God has obviously blessed America since its inception. Our success peaked in 1948 when we came to Israel’s aid just after WWII when Israel became a nation again after being scattered around the earth for 1900 years. If for no other reason, God raised up America for that singular purpose.

The original KJV, including all its additional updates, modifications and corrections, were translated based on one manuscript called the Textus Receptus.— a Latin, word-for-word, New Testament translation that was compiled by several scholars in the 16th century using eight Byzantine manuscripts.

Being under authority of the government is a command from God. When we obey, we’re showing respect to the Lord Who put them in place as they are God’s servants.

That statement only makes sense if you believe the Bible is without error and God is in control of everything at all times. Today we Believers have specific instructions that have not changed. We are not to obey authorities only if we agree with them.

It sure helps when you know God is in control of JRB!

"I was duped into taking the vax. Since the Covid va((ine is actually changing my DNA, am I still going to heaven or have I forfeited my right to entrance?”

There are many examples in the Bible where God prompted Believers to "get up and go."

As we live in these last days before our rescue, there may be many situations that arise where we can’t afford to be indecisive. It’s likely we’ll have to step out of our past American comfort zone in one way or another.

We should all be scripturally prepared if the Lord says “Get up and go.”

From the very beginning, God wanted to fellowship with His creation, but sin torpedoed the original creation. So God set up a way to redeem mankind. He began by promising a Savior would be sent.

Until the Savior came, He set up a blood-sacrifice system to cover sin because "Life is in the blood."
God set up a specific system for sacrifices and what to do with the blood from the sacrifices. All sacrifices were to be made at the Tabernacle, and later at the Temple, both minutely designed by God.
Not surprisingly we find buried in the Tabernacle and Temple design fascinating Bible prophecy truths.

Two bombshell events the Bible says are dead ahead!

Most of our nation’s major problems—border, healthcare, va((ine deaths, monetary, legal, military, woke culture, political—have almost assuredly been intentionally created by our enemies in order to collapse us. Thankfully many red cities and states are holding on to capitalistic ideals.

Could Donald Trump ride this conservative wave to get back into the White House? Is this a real shift or are the Globalists/Satanists just letting some air out of the balloon before it pops?

As we mentioned last month, we’ve been busy working on a new direct mail piece that we are planning to send to 500,000 people over this year. Maybe more...
Our purpose is to communicate that there are two huge events about to happen that will shake the world to its core.
Everyone needs to know how close we are to this prophetically documented time of God’s wrath on earth. And Satan is doing a masterful job keeping this info out of sight. So we want to be proactive in getting the word out.

Can we add anything to the finished work of the cross?

I have often said there is nothing a person can do or not do to make themselves any more or less acceptable to God, more or less holy. It’s not about us, rather, it’s all about what He did 2000 years ago.

But this teaching is at odds with some great Bible teachers who have taught that when you get saved, you are only sanctified positionally. Then throughout your life your good works somehow add to your sanctification. And that when a Believer dies, they then enter into heaven fully sanctified.

As we inch closer to the end of this age, there may be a lot of people wondering about who is, and who is not, a Christian.

Some may have lingering doubts put in their minds by our adversary. He'll make you wonder how in the world you think you're a Christian knowing all the things you know you're doing wrong.

Since there’s a good possibility of weird stuff happening in the world between now and the Rapture, the opportunities to witness to nervous people will undoubtedly increase.

Therefore, this will be a simple review of the scriptural basics of salvation...

Before discussing what may be coming in 2024, it’s imperative to have a firm grasp on the fact that God is in 100% control. So when you read the rest of this article, there is no reason to fear the future because God’s predetermined where we are and where we’re going. Our job is simply to line up with God’s Word.

Micah 5:2 is an amazing prophecy of Israel's coming King. It specifically states Israel's Messiah will be born in Bethlehem. The verse also states the Messiah will bring lasting security and His rule will be eternal.
God wanted to make sure the prophecy about the coming Messiah being born in Bethlehem was understood to be the city located just five miles south of Jerusalem...

We’ve written before about Jesus being born in Bethlehem in the middle of all those sheep being birthed and raised for the Jewish Temple sacrifices. Jesus was even referred to by John the Baptist as “The Lamb of God.”

But to the shepherds in the fields, why did the angel of the Lord say the baby “wrapped in cloths” would be a sign? As it turns out, it was a HUGE sign!

Last week I mentioned we were working on a new mail piece. As the idea and copy came together, I decided to use it this week as an article. So read it as if you just got some unsolicited mail.

It's just a portion of the mailer but should be interesting to see what you think of where we're going...it's meant to be a cold-water-in-the-face reality of what's ahead...

The Strait of Hormuz is a very narrow strip of water that links the Persian Gulf to the Oman and Arabian Seas.

For Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates and Qatar, this strait must be navigated in order for their ships to supply 40% of the earth’s oil exports to world markets. This is over 20 million barrels a day!

Iran is saying that if Israel and/or the United States attacks her, she will close the strait. And she could as Iran borders the strait on three sides.

An Iranian blockade, of course, would be shooting herself in the foot regarding her oil revenue but she would cause instant global economic chaos.

We had a Compass subscriber write us that he disagreed with the once saved always saved theology. He based his theory on Rev. 3:10. It's a confusing verse.
At first glance, based on the way that verse has been traditionally translated, it would seem to support a works doctrine. However, careful examination of the Greek shows that it was improperly punctuated...

A recent article on cleveland.com discussed why more than 600 rural hospitals in the United States are either at immediate or high risk of closure. In the article it stated: 

“…according to a report by the Center for Healthcare Quality and Payment Reform, based in Pittsburgh, in more than half of the states, 25% or more of the rural hospitals are at risk of closing, and in 12 states, 40% or more are at risk."
With that in mind, I want you to read a recent quote by Dr. Simone Gold (pictured speaking at a Steeling the Mind Conference). She’s very close to being spot on.

The Rapture of the Church is a special event when New Testament Believers, who are alive at the end of the Church Age, bypass physical death and go straight to heaven.

The Doctrine of The Rapture brings up lots of interesting questions, like...

What happens to our clothes?

The horrific Hamas invasion that massacred some 1400 Israelis, almost all unarmed, innocent family members, brought Israel front and center on the world’s stage…just as prophesied.

Currently there is a media war going on trying to position “poor Palestine” as getting the short end of the stick. But like most other mainstream news these days, that simply isn’t true.

To best understand what’s going on in the Middle East, you first must understand the TRUE history of Israel and their miraculous rebirth as a nation in 1948...

To get the whole world to obey and follow instructions, the Globalists/Satanists have to control 1) the money, 2) the food and 3) the energy.

The Globalists have been for some time using fake/false climate issues to dismantle our energy supplies. This will reduce the amount of food available, cause inflation, which will give them more control when they come to full power over the world—albeit post-Rapture.

That leaves our current banking system to be “reimagined.” It will be purposely collapsed so the Globalists can “save the day” with a new “digital only” system...
