And Elohim said further to Mosheh, “Thus you are to say to the children of Yisra’ĕl, ‘YHWH Elohim of your fathers, the Elohim of Abraham, the Elohim of Yitsḥaq, and the Elohim of Yaaqob, has sent me to you. This is My Name forever, and this is My remembrance to all generations.’

NEW FOR TODAY:

END TIMES:

• "There Shall be Scoffers In the Last Days" (by Spirit Journals)
  There is no escaping the fact that from Genesis to Revelation the “last days,” the “latter times,” and the “end times,” and other similar terms are used again and again with what is clearly a major theme of the Bible.  Israel is the key to Bible prophecy. I know there are well-meaning ministries out there who put the church in the forefront of all end time events, thus producing such viewpoints as a mid-tribulation rapture, a post-tribulation rapture and even some camps who teach there will be no rapture. All that has been written in the past by prophets and apostles has a bulls eye on THIS time of history when we are seeing events take place that scholars in the early 1900s and even mid-1900s would have paid blood for to see. To make the last days anything less than a time of great social, economic and spiritual upheaval prior to Christ’s return is false.
