The End of History as We Know It

Dennis McCallum

Daniel 11:29-12:10

Daniel predicts the final war of the end times. There is much we do not know, but studying biblical prophecy, and how it has been fulfilled, gives us confidence in God and His power!\r\n\r\n

Seventy Sevens

Dennis McCallum

Daniel 9:24-27

In one of the most famous prophetic passages of all time, Daniel predicts the coming of the future Messiah down to the specific year of his death! Although it involves a little math, this passage is one of the most faith affirming passages in Scripture.

Two More Beasts

Dennis McCallum

Daniel 8

Daniel has a vision and prophecies about future historical figures that will persecute God's people, ultimately pointing towards the "Beast" of Revelations, the Anti-Christ. God has given us evidence to trust Him through already fulfilled prophecies, so we know we can trust the things He has promised us and His predictions for the future!

Globalization & the Regathering of Israel

Dennis McCallum

Ezekiel 37:1-24

Biblical prophecy stands out against other prophecy seen in history, in that it has been fulfilled and verified again and again! Some examples of this are the regathering of Israel and the increasing globalization of our world!\r\n\r\n

Foundations of Faith

Jim Leffel

Isaiah 52:13-53:12

There are major differences between our culture's view of faith and the Bible's view of faith. Peter instructs the ?resident aliens? about the life of faith which has intellectual and character components and provides hope. God has given us incredible prophecies about Christ in the Anonymous Servant passages in Isaiah in order to strengthen our faith to endure suffering.\r\n

The Tale of the Beasts

Dennis McCallum

Daniel 7

Daniel predicts the overthrow and victories of various nations, all of which ended up happening later. He points towards a final battle, at the end of this world. The Bible is clear that this world as we know it will have an end. What side will you choose in the battle?

Nebuchadnezzar's Dream

Dennis McCallum

Daniel 2:1-25

Daniel is the only one who can interpret a troubling dream of the Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar, through God's wisdom and power. The dream contains a prophecy of future empires that are to come, almost all of which have been fulfilled!

God's Heart For People

Dennis McCallum

Jonah 1-4

Jonah was a prophet who initially ran from what God called him to do. After some discipline and repentance, God uses Jonah to show characteristics of His heart: 1) His love goes out to needy and confused people, and 2) God has a lot more compassion than we do. This book can lead the readers to consider if they have answered the call to reconcile the world to Him that God has given all believers.

Relating to God

Dennis McCallum

Hosea 14:1-5

Hosea was a prophet who God called to marry an unfaithful prostitute. God reveals that this will "illustrate the way my people have been untrue to me, openly committing adultery against the Lord by worshiping other gods." Hosea's book contrasts idol worship (which applies to letting anything have priority over God) to the relationship God wants with people. This relationship includes intimacy, grace, discipline, freedom, faithfulness, and repentance, which is contrary to the perils that people experience without God.
