Well, the 2019 meeting of the Embracing the Truth Conference is behind us. It was a truly enjoyable time. Plenty of good teaching and preaching, tasty food, and lots of fine fellowship. This particular post includes my two lecture sessions (on the Rapture of the Church and the Great Tribulation), as well as my notes. In the weeks ahead, all of the audio from the conference will be available on the conference website and I’ll post a link when it is.
Many thanks again to Elders Pickett, Spickard, and Kennedy for their leadership and tireless efforts to make this annual conference a reality.

By Grace Alone – in Tagalog update

Many thanks to our listeners and readers in the Philippines! Especially our friend, Fiel. He has sent me an updated PDF of the Tagalog version of my book “By Grace Alone.” The very fact that it is being translated and distributed is divine providence in action. And I am very grateful for the effort it took to produce and update it.
You can download it, for free, right here: TAGALOG By Grace Alone

Thursday night: Jesus as Judge / Positive
Friday night: Eternal Judgment (Skepple)
