Vlad Savchuk is one of those pastors that has the ability to express ideas in very simple terms. I like the way he thinks. Is prayer just a one way street? God still speaks to His children.

A life without prayer
Thursday, September 28 2023.
One of the most predictable activities of Jesus was His regularly going off alone to pray - to talk to and listen to God. I really like the ministry of David Diga Hernandez. His is a unique take on the gospel message - focussing on the ministry of the Holy Spirit. There are probably not many alive […]

Religious Traditions and Strongholds
Friday, September 22 2023.
This is a very good session from Pastor Nick Uva. The context is healing. But there are overarching principles that extend to all the gifts of the Spirit. Quite often our religious traditions can create strongholds in our lives that prevent us from experiencing these gifts.

He will confirm a covenant with many
Monday, September 18 2023.
And he will confirm a covenant with many for one week, but in the middle of the week he will put an end to sacrifice and offering. And on the wing of the temple will come the abomination that causes desolation, until the decreed destruction is poured out upon him. Dan 9:27 The above verse is […]

Eyes on the Middle-East
Sunday, September 17 2023.
Astute readers of the Bible will recognize that the record of the prophets and statements by Jesus consistently testify that God is not finished with Israel. And that Israel will be at the center of a coming storm. In combination with that, there is also the general recognition that the geopolitical […]

Horses, riders, and chariots!
Thursday, September 14 2023.
The more I read Zechariah, and compare it to the Revelation to John, the more I see Zechariah as a companion text to this final book. It provides insight into some of the imagery John uses in his record. Without it, I think it's possible to go sideways in your interpretation. For example, consider […]

Knowledge Filters
Monday, September 11 2023.
Looking at Scripture with Fresh Eyes In this podcast, Michael Heiser introduces the subject of "knowledge filters" and how they can sometimes trap us into thinking a certain way. Sometimes, we carry with us ideas about scripture that have been handed down to us by whatever religious […]

When beast like nations get the upper hand
Saturday, September 9 2023.
It's nerve wracking to witness first hand once strong democracies - like Canada - who's constitutions were influenced by Christian principles - fail. This tragedy is being played out across many once strong democracies. Instead, beast like geopolitical formations more nefarious in nature are gaining […]

Reshaping the Global Order
Saturday, September 2 2023.
With 6 new countries being added from a list of 22 candidates and as many as 40 countries expressing interest in joining, why has BRICS suddenly become so popular? As a citizen of the West, we become accustomed to thinking a certain way geopolitically. We forget that there are a multitude of nations […]

A context for slavery in Egypt
Sunday, August 27 2023.
The narrative of Israel in Egypt is often portrayed this way. They were innocent victims subject to the cruelty and slavery imposed by Egyptian kings following the death of Joseph. We get that impression from these statements at the beginning of the Book of Exodus. Then a new king, who did not know […]

Geopolitical Shifting
Friday, August 25 2023.
Because of our limited historical perspective, there's a tendency to believe "what has been" will always "continue to be". For most of the last century, Western democracies have enjoyed positions of geopolitical and geoeconomic favour. Power blocs like the G7 have yielded […]

A Sabbath rest for the people of God
Tuesday, August 22 2023.
There remains, then, a Sabbath rest for the people of God. For whoever enters God’s rest also rests from his own work, just as God did from His. Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest. Heb 4:9-11 I've been on both sides on the issue of the Sabbath. Historically, I believe the […]

How the enemy operates
Monday, August 21 2023.
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world’s darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Eph 6:12 Satan would love to have us operate from a position of ignorance or denial of […]

The Assyrian
Monday, August 14 2023.
Ezekiel 38 and 39 offer one of the most detailed descriptions of Israel's "last days" adversary - Gog. These two chapters describe what I believe are two separate invasions of Israel. One describing the invasion at the end of this age. The other describing a final invasion at the end of […]

Confessions of a Maranatha Pastor
Friday, August 11 2023.
“In the beginning the church was a fellowship of men and women centering on the living Christ. Then the church moved to Greece, where it became a philosophy. Then it moved to Rome, where it became an institution. Next, it moved to Europe, where it became a culture. And, finally, it moved to […]
Kingdom Now?
Friday, August 11 2023.
It's like sandpaper to the soul when I hear statements from the pulpit that emphasise a "Kingdom-Now" theology. Especially when these statements come from teachers within denominations that have doctrinally identified as premillennial. A belief that the "Kingdom of God" is here […]

A smooth path?
Tuesday, August 8 2023.
Reality check. A smooth path in this life, though desirable, is unrealistic, improbable. In the world you will have tribulation. John 16:33 David, through adversity, learned to walk "through the valley of the shadow of death" - Psalm 23:4 But know this: Many are the afflictions of the […]

Replacement Theology
Sunday, July 16 2023.
I ask then, did God reject His people? Certainly not! I am an Israelite myself, a descendant of Abraham, from the tribe of Benjamin. God did not reject His people, whom He foreknew... I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you will not be conceited: A hardening in part […]

I am in My Father, and you are in Me, and I am in you
Saturday, July 8 2023.
On that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you are in Me, and I am in you. John 14:20 that all of them may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I am in You. May they also be in Us I have given them the glory You gave Me, so that they may be one as We are one— I in them and You in […]
