This is a site dedicated to Christian studies of various subjects, which include: End Time Prophecy, Apostasy, Ministry, Missions and Current Events. You may notice that there are some other random topics here as well. This is because this was my first site and at the beginning, I wasn’t sure if it would be a personal site or otherwise… it turned out to be otherwise, therefore, I created other sites for my more personal entries. You can see those sites, which are listed below. Thank you for stopping by and I hope to hear from you. If there is anything that you would like for me to research, please feel free to leave a comment and I will do my best to cover it. Thanks again and God bless!

Mark Biltz Responds To Criticism
Posted by truthoughts on May 20, 2008
With all of the controversy from the video I have posted, I would like to share an excerpt from Mark Biltz website:
For my previous posts please visit: Jewish Feasts of the Lord also Feasts of the Lord Part II and for the combined version… Jewish Feasts and Holy Days
Stipulating Eclipse Comments
By Pastor Mark Biltz
“[…] Remember when Messiah said the gates of hell will not prevail against the church! Gates
are a defensive piece of armory, not offensive! The church has been terrified of being
attacked by gates?! The truth here is that the gates are trying to keep people in captivity
and the church is supposed to storm the gates of hell and rescue the people held cap-
tive! The truth is that Satan and his minions are terrified of us! It’s time to storm them
and that’s my heart. Be Blessed!
I hope you enjoyed listening to the song above and now watch the video. May you
be inspired to join me as we Wake, Watch and go to Work! Pass this on to other
Warriors! We need to quit squabbling over the dating of the rapture and unite to the
Work! Keep this going, time is short, and the battle is near!”
There is a lot more that he said, but I would like for you to visit his site to see for yourself. The excerpt that I am sharing here is one that we should all be able to relate to in the Church. There should be no controversy with this. I found his words very insightful and inspiring and I hope that you will as well. Please do give it a read and if you have any questions about what he teaches, please ask him. Pastor Mark Biltz is the perfect source to find out what he, himself, means with what he states.
In this content that he has written, it also states his clarifications of what others may be misunderstanding about the controversial video interview he had with Prophecy In The News. For your researching desires, this is a great place to start.
This video has caused quite a stir amongst those in the church and those leering in for multiple reasons. For some, it has been an encouraging wake up call, for others, it has been an alarming siren that they just want to silence. It reminds me of the comparison of Jesus being the corner stone and a stumbling block.
If you have not seen the video, please check it out:

Paul,
That is great! I think it caused quite the wake up call to the Church… to some however it has been quite a loud warning siren that they just want to quiet. Thank you so much for your comment my friend.
Sincerely In Christ,

Love, love , love the article! The connection between the eclipses and the Feasts Days is awesome. I believe the info gives us a heightened motivation to get the gospel message out, and to get it out quickly.

I completely agree with you whole heartedly! Time is so short and once it is over, we can do no more. God speed my friend!

hi I’d just like to know, in order for the tribulation to start the Antichrist must sign a 7 year peace treaty with Israel, which we know has not happened yet, that means that the tribulation has not started yet and its 2009, 7 years from now gets 2016, I’m fascinated by the eclipses but 2008 passed and the tribulation didn’t start, second coming can’t be in 2015 its not rocket science,its another failed prediction whats all the hype about,I do believe the eclipses have some kind of significance tho. Unless there is a solar eclipse on the feast of trumpets in 2016 that would be significant,I’m just confused again, any new info please email me – btw, I know who the Antichrist is!

Nigel,
Thank you for your comment. You are correct in stating that the Great Tribulation has not yet begun. The correlations regarding the eclipses are stunning and I am sure they hold a significant “sign” regarding the end times though I do not have more details for you presently. The next solar eclipse occurs later this month (July 22nd) which is also Av 1 on the Hebrew calendar. We know that from Av1 – Av 9, this is the most solemn time for the Jewish people (temples destroyed, etc.). The prediction you are referring to is more of a reference to coincidence than an actual prediction. Kind of like the things that make you go, “Hmmm…” rather than “Ah-Ha!”
Either way, we know that based on what is happening around the world… the time is very near and literally could happen any moment now. So, no matter what is predicted or researched, we should all keep looking up for our redemption draws near.
Thank you again for your comment. I’m sorry that I cannot give you more information at this time. Let me know if you come across anything of significance as well and I will research this further. Have a blessed day Nigel.
Sincerely In Christ,
Alison
