In this sermon we unpack Psalm 52, exploring its historical context and timeless relevance. Learn why David, a prophet and poet, penned this “Maskil”—an instructional song designed to impart God’s wisdom for life. We’ll examine the stark differences between David’s humility and reliance on God, and Doeg’s pride, treachery, and self-reliance, highlighting the critical choices each of us faces.

This Christian sermon reveals how Psalm 52 serves as a “decision track,” challenging viewers to choose between walking in God’s way (leading to life) or their own way (leading to death). We discuss the destructive power of wicked words and evil desires, as exemplified by Doeg, and contrast it with the life-giving words and heart of David, who consistently sought refuge in God.

If you’re seeking to study the Bible deeply, understand the intricacies of Old Testament Psalms, or grow in your Christian faith, this video is for you. We explore the consequences of rejecting God’s salvation and the ultimate judgment awaiting those who refuse to surrender to Him. Drawing parallels between David’s and Doeg’s journeys, we underscore the crucial difference: one trusted God, the other trusted himself, his wealth, and his strength.

Join us as we uncover how Psalm 52 powerfully illustrates the triumph of God’s faithful love. Discover how, like a flourishing olive tree in the house of God, those who trust in Him will endure and produce fruit, even amidst trials. This message is perfect for anyone interested in Christianity, seeking to understand Jesus’ teachings, or looking for insightful Bible study content from a Calvary Chapel perspective. Don’t miss this opportunity to deepen your faith and learn how to put your hope in God’s good name forever!

In this profound Bible study from our ongoing Ezekiel series, titled “Ezekiel 33 – We’ve Got The Watch,” we explore the vital role of the watchman in both ancient Israel and in the Christian life today. Join us as we delve into the Old Testament book of Ezekiel to uncover timeless truths relevant to Bible prophecy and the end times. This sermon will resonate with anyone seeking deeper Bible insights, Christian teachings, and Calvary Chapel perspectives on God’s word.

We begin by drawing parallels between the solemn “End of Watch” tradition in law enforcement and Ezekiel’s own “End of Watch-man” experience. Discover how God’s prophet, Ezekiel, delivered challenging prophecies to the exiled Jews in Babylon, warning them of Jerusalem’s impending fall, a message they initially rejected. Using the clear, conversational New Living Translation, we break down Ezekiel 33:1-6, examining the watchman’s responsibility to warn the people and the consequences of their disobedience.

Learn why God, not man, chose Ezekiel as a watchman, a crucial lesson for believers today about divine calling versus human ambition. We emphasize that God’s exhortation to Ezekiel was ultimately for the benefit of the Jews, highlighting the personal responsibility of individuals to heed divine warnings. We clarify that the physical consequences described in Ezekiel 33, such as captivity and death, are distinct from the concept of eternal life.

As God commissions Ezekiel to a second watch, we explore what it means to be given “more to do” in service to the Lord, encouraging every Christian to seek God’s will for their lives. We then unpack Ezekiel 33:8-9, distinguishing between physical death and eternal salvation, reinforcing that repentance leads to life. We also address the false notion that God condemns individuals for another’s disobedience.

Delving into Ezekiel 33:10-11, we confront the people’s self-pity and blame, revealing God’s true desire for sinners to turn from their wicked ways and live. This section offers powerful insight into God’s character and His long-suffering love, echoing 2 Peter 3:9. We engage in a discussion about the meaning of “all” coming to repentance, advocating for the “whosoever will believe” perspective.

The video then examines Ezekiel 33:12-16, exposing the futility of relying on past righteousness or superficial worship. We use a compelling analogy of modern legal frameworks to illustrate why God does not overlook sin based on general obedience. These verses paint a picture of restoration and blessing in the land for those who genuinely repent and obey God’s life-giving laws.

We discuss the people’s accusation that “The Lord isn’t doing what’s right” (Ezekiel 33:17-20), asserting that it is they who are failing to act righteously. The video powerfully recounts the moment a survivor confirms “The city has fallen” (Ezekiel 33:21-22), marking a pivotal shift and the end of Ezekiel’s period of muteness.

Further, we analyze the survivors’ misguided claim to the land based on Abraham’s legacy (Ezekiel 33:24-26), contrasted with God’s stern judgment against their idolatry, murder, and adultery. This leads into the dire consequences prophesied in Ezekiel 33:27-29, where the land’s complete destruction signifies the beginning of “The Time of the Gentiles,” a period that continues to this day until Christ’s return.

Finally, we explore the people’s superficial interest in Ezekiel’s messages (Ezekiel 33:30-33), highlighting the danger of hearing God’s word without acting on it. The video concludes with a tender reflection on Ezekiel’s faithfulness and a powerful exhortation for Church Age believers: Are we watchmen today? Learn how we fulfill this role by heeding “one another” verses, exercising spiritual gifts, and eagerly watching for the Lord’s return. This sermon provides ten New Testament encouragements for our watch, emphasizing purification and steadfast hope in Christ’s imminent appearing. Get ready to strengthen your faith and deepen your understanding of God’s sovereign plan!

In Prophecy Update #824, titled “If You Say Sow,” we delve into critical Bible prophecies unfolding before our eyes. Join us in this Bible study as we connect current global trends with end-times predictions from the Bible. This video is a must-watch for anyone interested in Christianity, Bible prophecy, and Calvary Chapel teachings on the Last Days.

Discover how advancements in biometrics and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are setting the stage for future prophecy fulfillment, including the biblical descriptions of a global system of commerce and a “mark.” While dramatic events unfold, we also explore less obvious, yet equally significant, prophecies.

We examine Jeremiah 31:27, where the LORD speaks of “sowing the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of man and with the seed of beast.” This Bible verse signifies a time of population growth, blessing, and restoration for Israel, a Millennial scene that we see being prepared even now.

A recent article highlights Israel’s announcement of 22 new communities in Judea and Samaria, a move that directly aligns with this prophecy of “sowing Judea and Israel with the seed of men.” Hear powerful statements from Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich emphasizing Israel’s sovereignty and settlement efforts.

In response to a global surge in anti-Semitism, there’s a clear message for Jews worldwide to return to the land of Israel. Following the events of October 7, 2023, over 31,000 new immigrants moved to Israel, fulfilling Jeremiah’s ancient prediction of the Jewish return to their Promised Land in the Last Days. We clarify that this prophecy specifically refers to ethnic descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, not a spiritualized interpretation for the Church.

Finally, we turn our attention to Revelation 3:10, a foundational scripture for understanding the Church in the Last Days. Jesus promises to “keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world.” We explain why “the hour of trial,” or the Tribulation, is a global event that believers will not endure. This discussion covers the Rapture, the resurrection of the dead in Christ, and the transformation of believers into glorified bodies before this critical period.

Are you ready for the Rapture? This video will challenge you to get ready, stay ready, and keep looking up for the imminent return of Jesus Christ. Don’t miss these crucial prophecy updates that will help you understand the times we live in and strengthen your faith. Tune in for deep Bible insights and sermon content relevant to today’s world.

In this powerful Bible study, “Psalm 12 – The Talking Dead,” we dive deep into the ancient wisdom of the Old Testament book of Psalms. Join us as we explore Psalm 12, a profound passage that resonates with believers seeking to understand Christian living, faith, and spirituality in today’s world. This sermon, part of our ongoing Psalms series, offers a unique perspective on King David’s lament and his unwavering confidence in God amidst a crumbling society.

Discover how the vivid imagery of a “talking dead” world, surprisingly similar to modern zombie narratives, illuminates the spiritual state of humanity. We’ll unpack David’s cry for help in Psalm 12:1, reflecting on feelings of hopelessness and confusion that resonate with many Christians today. This Bible teaching emphasizes the importance of honest prayer and authentic communication with God, drawing parallels to the rich tradition of lament Psalms. Learn how God hears the cries of His people and is always listening for our needs and desires.

This in-depth study of Psalm 12 reveals humanity’s urgent need for salvation, not from physical plagues, but from the sin that infects our hearts and mouths. We expose the deceptive nature of lying and flattery and its destructive impact on relationships and society. This sermon challenges us to audit our language and allow the Lord to cleanse us from the malignancy of deceit. We’ll confront the seriousness of lying and the pride that infiltrates ungodly hearts, as highlighted in Psalm 12:3-4.

Explore the powerful truth that our tongues have the ability to either build up or tear down, and that ultimately, God is our master, not ourselves. This Christian sermon provides a crucial message for those searching for truth and meaning, explaining how outside of covenant with Jesus Christ, we are enslaved to sin. For those interested in Christianity and spirituality, this video offers a clear path to salvation through faith in Jesus, the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

In Psalm 12:5, we witness God’s compassionate response to the cries of the needy and the oppressed. This Bible study encourages Christians that God still hears our groanings and moves with power on our behalf. We’ll see how David’s isolation transforms into a sense of community, recognizing that God is mindful of all His people.

A key highlight of this Psalms teaching is the profound truth of Psalm 12:6 – the purity and power of God’s Word. Like silver refined seven times, God’s promises withstand any trial or opposition, offering an unshakeable foundation for our faith. This Calvary Chapel sermon emphasizes the reliability of God’s truth, even in a world where it is constantly under attack.

Finally, we find assurance in Psalm 12:7-8, knowing that God will guard and protect His people from the spiritual degradation of every generation. This sermon encourages believers to understand their identity as sons and daughters of God, no longer aimlessly wandering but walking with purpose toward His eternal glory. We’ll conclude by reflecting on the call to make disciples, carrying the cure of the Gospel to a world in desperate need of rescue. This video is a must-watch for anyone who wants to study the Bible, grow in their Christian faith, and understand how to live a life of purpose in Christ.

Welcome to Prophecy Updates #823: Dust Men Tell Their Tales — a compelling episode exploring current global trends in light of Bible prophecy, with special focus on the Dead Sea Scrolls, end times events, and the soon return of Jesus Christ.

In this weekly series from Calvary Hanford, a local fellowship associated with Calvary Chapel, we take a few minutes to analyze how today’s headlines echo the ancient predictions found in Bible prophecy. As part of our ongoing effort to study the Bible systematically, we examine real-world developments that align with prophetic Scripture, including Old Testament prophecies, the Book of Daniel, and the Book of Revelation.

In this episode, we highlight fascinating connections between the Dead Sea Scrolls and the end times, focusing on how Isaiah 29 may have foretold their discovery. These scrolls, hidden by the Essenes during the Roman destruction of Jerusalem, have begun to “speak from the dust” — a direct fulfillment of prophetic imagery. We discuss how these ancient texts, including the Great Isaiah Scroll, the Temple Scroll, and the Damascus Document, were uncovered during key moments in Israel’s modern history — the rebirth of the nation in 1948 and the Six-Day War in 1967 — both significant markers in prophetic timelines.

Could these discoveries be part of what Daniel and John wrote about — sealed messages meant to be revealed in the last days? Are we seeing the unlocking of ancient truths for a final generation?

We also take a fresh look at Revelation 3:10, discussing the pre-tribulation rapture and God’s promise to keep His Church from “the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world.” This verse is a cornerstone for believers awaiting the return of Jesus Christ — not to endure wrath, but to be rescued before the Great Tribulation begins.

If you’re interested in Bible study, Christian eschatology, or discovering how current events align with the Bible’s end times prophecies, this video is for you. Whether you’re a student of the Scriptures, a follower of Christ, or simply curious about how ancient texts like the Dead Sea Scrolls fit into the prophetic puzzle, this video will encourage and equip you.

Dive deep into the supernatural realm with our latest Bible study video, Ezekiel 28:1-26 – SupernaturalisticFallenAngelsAreAtrocious. In this in-depth exploration of Ezekiel chapter 28, we uncover the unseen forces at play influencing the nations, much like the dark parallel dimension of the Upside Down in Stranger Things. If you’re seeking a profound understanding of Bible prophecy, the role of fallen angels, and the intricacies of Old Testament scripture, this video is for you.

This chapter of Ezekiel unfolds in four key segments. First, we examine the rebuke of the Prince of Tyre, historically Ethbaal III, for his audacious claim of divinity. Discover how his earthly pride mirrors a deeper spiritual arrogance. Secondly, we confront the chilling reality of a supernatural menace, identified as the King of Tyre, operating within the unseen realm. This section delves into the nature and influence of demonic forces as revealed in scripture.

Next, we turn our attention to the judgment pronounced upon Sidon, Tyre’s sister city, highlighting God’s sovereignty over all nations. Finally, we conclude with the glorious future promise of Israel’s restoration, a prophecy that ultimately points towards the certainty of the Millennial Kingdom under the reign of Jesus Christ.

Drawing parallels to Loki’s boast in the face of the Hulk, we consider the Prince of Tyre’s “puny god” delusion. We analyze verses 1-10, exploring Ethbaal’s hubris in claiming divine status amidst his maritime power, perhaps even likening himself to Poseidon or Triton. We contrast his arrogance with the wisdom and faithfulness of Daniel, a captive who served God even in a hostile environment. Just as Paul turned his Roman imprisonment into a powerful ministry, Daniel’s captivity was within the Lord’s hands.

The temptation of becoming “like God,” the very lie from the Garden of Eden, continues to plague humanity. While we may not overtly seek worship, unbelievers often live as the ultimate authority in their own lives. Even believers can fall into this trap when worldly desires take precedence over Jesus.

We explore the significance of “the mountain of God” and its potential connection to Mount Hermon, the site where rebellious angels, according to Enoch, descended and interacted with humanity, leading to the Nephilim. This location, near Caesarea-Philippi, was even referred to by some Hebrews as “The Gates of Hell,” adding profound context to Jesus’ declaration that these gates would not prevail against His church.

The fall of this glorious cherub, driven by pride in his beauty, led to his banishment from God’s presence. We connect this account with Isaiah 14, noting how both prophets speak of this event, one as future and the other as past, highlighting God’s eternal perspective.

Expanding on Angelology, we touch upon Deuteronomy 32:8-9 (as interpreted by the Dead Sea Scrolls and Septuagint), which speaks of God disinheriting the nations at Babel and assigning them to “Sons of God,” angelic beings. We mention the Prince of Persia and the Prince of Greece from the book of Daniel, suggesting a spiritual battleground behind earthly powers, with Michael as the protector of Israel.

Finally, we examine the prophecy against Sidon (Ezekiel 28:20-24), a nation marked by its contempt for Israel, and the beautiful promise of Israel’s restoration and security in the Millennial Kingdom (Ezekiel 28:25-26), a tangible, thousand-year reign of Christ following the Great Tribulation.

Just as the Mind Flayer battles for minds in the Upside Down, the true battle in our world is for our minds. We conclude by referencing 2 Corinthians 10:3-5, urging believers to stand firm in the armor of God against the lies of the enemy, the same lie of self-deification that began in Eden. Stand firm in the truth!

Welcome to Prophecy Updates #822, where we delve into fascinating current trends through the lens of Bible prophecy. In this installment, “River Walk,” we explore remarkable geographical changes unfolding in Israel that align with unfulfilled prophetic scriptures. If you’re seeking a deeper understanding of Bible prophecy, end times, and how today’s world reflects biblical predictions, you’ve come to the right place.

Join us as we examine a significant prophecy from the book of Ezekiel, chapter 47, verses 6 through 11. This passage speaks of a river flowing eastward, healing the waters of the Dead Sea and bringing life where there was once barrenness. We unpack the details of this prophecy and connect it to tangible events happening in Israel right now.

In this video, we highlight compelling evidence of this prophecy’s near fulfillment. Discover how water is currently flowing into the Dead Sea, undergoing a natural purification process. Learn about the formation of thousands of natural craters, known as bolaines, which are capturing salt deposits. Witness the surprising presence of small fish in areas where the healing waters are reaching. It’s truly amazing to see these developments occurring naturally and exclusively on the Israeli side of the Dead Sea, pointing towards the prophetic future described by Ezekiel.

We emphasize the concept of near and far fulfillments in Bible prophecy, suggesting that these current events are significant indicators of what is yet to come. This is not man-made; it is a natural unfolding that resonates powerfully with biblical predictions.

Beyond this incredible development in Israel, we also touch upon a peculiar news item from the UK regarding planned open-air experiments in solar geo-engineering. While we don’t believe this to be prophetic, it serves as a thought-provoking example of global efforts to address climate change, a topic often discussed in the context of end times discussions.

For our viewers interested in Christian theology and Bible study, we also reaffirm the comforting promise given by Jesus to His Church in Revelation 3:10: protection from the coming hour of trial. We discuss the imminence of the resurrection and rapture of the church, underscoring that this pivotal event could occur at any moment, with no preceding prophecies needing fulfillment.

This video is a must-watch for anyone engaged in Bible study, seeking to understand Christian perspectives on current events, and specifically those interested in Bible prophecy and the end times. If you regularly watch sermons and teachings from Calvary Chapel or are looking for insightful analysis of biblical prophecies, this update is for you.

Welcome to our chapter-by-chapter Bible study through the Book of Ezekiel with Ezekiel 26-27 – Flattened Tyre, a powerful expository sermon from Calvary Chapel! This video explores the ancient city of Tyre, a hub of commerce and wealth, and its prophetic destruction as a cautionary tale against the love of money. Join us for an in-depth Bible study unpacking the perils of choosing mammon over God and the freedom found in discipleship through Jesus Christ.

In Ezekiel 26-27, God pronounces judgment on Tyre, a Phoenician city known for its economic dominance and moral corruption. We examine how Tyre’s obsession with wealth—gold, silver, precious stones, and slaves—led to its downfall, as prophesied by Ezekiel and fulfilled through Nebuchadnezzar’s siege and Alexander the Great’s conquest. Learn how Tyre’s idolatry of mammon, exemplified by figures like Jezebel and the trafficking of Jews, mirrors modern materialism and spiritual dangers. This sermon draws parallels to Jesus’ teaching, “You cannot serve God and mammon,” and highlights the biblical prophecy fulfilled with stunning accuracy, as noted by Peter Stoner’s probability analysis.

This Bible study is ideal for Christians, Bible prophecy enthusiasts, and those seeking expository sermons on Christianity, Jesus, and Old Testament teachings. We delve into Ezekiel’s vivid imagery of Tyre as a shipwrecked vessel, explore the spiritual implications of mammon as a demonic force, and offer practical applications for living a life devoted to God. Discover how generosity, as David Jeremiah suggests, counters the lure of wealth and aligns with God’s call to love Him and others.

Learn about the Nephilim, fallen angels, and their role in corrupting human DNA, as verified by the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Book of the Giants.

We also explore modern genetic manipulation—gene editing, cloning, transhumanism, and the revival of the dire wolf through de-extinction efforts by Colossal Bioscience. Hear insights from Ben Lamm’s appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience, where he revealed China’s advancements in genetically modified children. These developments echo the Days of Noah, signaling the End Times as foretold by Jesus.

This Bible study is perfect for Christians, Bible prophecy enthusiasts, and those seeking sermons on the rapture, Second Coming, and End Times events. We unpack Revelation 3:10, where Jesus promises to keep His Church from the hour of trial. Are you ready for the imminent rapture?

Welcome to our ongoing Old Testament Bible study series, where we explore the book of Ezekiel chapter by chapter. In this expository sermon, “Ezekiel 25:1-17 – Don’t Fight The Hand That Saves You,” we unpack God’s outstretched hand—a powerful gesture of judgment, mercy, and discipline. This Calvary Chapel teaching dives into Ezekiel 25, where God declares His hand against Ammon, Edom, Moab, Seir, and the Philistines for their hostility toward Israel. These nations faced destruction for their spite, a sobering reminder of God’s justice against sin and those who oppose His chosen people.

Ezekiel 25 reveals two key truths: God stretches His arm out to destroy your enemies and to discipline His children. From Ammon’s gloating over Israel’s fall to Edom’s vengeance and the Philistines’ ancient hatred, God’s judgment was final—none of these nations survive today. Yet, this passage also reflects His mercy. The same outstretched hand that delivers justice offers salvation, as seen in Christ’s sacrifice on the Cross. This sermon connects Old Testament prophecy to Christian living, showing how God’s discipline refines believers while His justice protects them.

For Bible study enthusiasts, this video explores the historical context of Ezekiel’s prophecies, including the Ammonites, Moabites, and Edomites, and their relevance to God’s covenant with Israel. We also examine the spiritual application: just as God judged these nations, He calls us to repentance and restoration, not retribution. Whether you’re seeking Christian devotionals or deep Scripture analysis, this teaching offers practical insights for living out your faith today.

Join us as we study Ezekiel 25:1-17 verse by verse, reflecting on God’s dual role as Judge and Father. Perfect for those interested in expository preaching, Bible prophecy, and growing in Christian faith. Subscribe for weekly Bible study videos from a Calvary Chapel perspective, and share this sermon to encourage others in their walk with Christ. Don’t miss this powerful lesson on trusting the hand that saves—God’s outstretched arm is both a warning to the rebellious and a promise to the redeemed. Stretch your hands upward in rejoicing, for Jesus has overcome!

Prophecy Update #820 – Keep Scrolling

April 6, 2025

When discussing the Dead Sea Scrolls, the term “fragments” comes-up often. It refers to the small, often broken, pieces of parchment or papyrus that make up much of the collection. Keep that in mind.

Welcome to Prophecy Updates #820, part of our ongoing Bible prophecy series from a Calvary Chapel perspective. In this episode, we explore current world trends aligning with biblical predictions about the end times. Topics include biometrics, artificial intelligence, cashless commerce, human DNA manipulation, global government, instantaneous global communication, and the push to rebuild the Temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. These signs, foretold in Scripture, are accelerating like never before, offering insight into God’s prophetic timeline.

We dive into Daniel 12:4, where the prophet is told to “seal the book until the time of the end; many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.” This verse could point to a growing understanding of Bible prophecy, especially Israel’s dispensational role in the last days. Alternatively, it may predict the explosion of technology, science, and global travel in the modern era—clear end times indicators. Yet, a third interpretation ties this prophecy to the Dead Sea Scrolls, ancient manuscripts discovered between 1947 and 2021 near Qumran. These fragments, including Zechariah and Nahum translations, reveal biblical truths preserved for the end times.

The Dead Sea Scrolls connect to Elijah’s prophetic school and the Tanna Eliyihu, referenced in 3rd-century commentaries. Elijah’s words, “Truth will be found in fragments,” may foreshadow these discoveries, unveiling hidden insights from Daniel and John’s sealed writings for the last days. For deeper study, check out Dr. Ken Johnson at biblefacts.org.

This Bible study unpacks how these trends and discoveries signal the nearness of the rapture, as promised in Revelation 3:10. Jesus assures His Church protection from the coming global trial. The resurrection and rapture are imminent—nothing stands in its way. Are you ready? Get ready, stay ready, and keep looking up, because Jesus is coming soon!

Join us for an in-depth expository Bible study of Ezekiel 24:1-27 – Killing Her Shortly With His Word, a powerful sermon exploring the 24th chapter of Ezekiel in the Old Testament. This video, delivered from a Calvary Chapel perspective, unpacks God’s prophetic message to Ezekiel, focusing on the fall of Jerusalem, the siege by King Nebuchadnezzar, and the personal cost of obedience to God’s will. For Christians, Bible study enthusiasts, and those intrigued by Bible prophecy, this teaching reveals how God’s commands—often a ‘voluntold’ calling—equip and example His people, even through trials like the death of Ezekiel’s wife and the destruction of the Temple.

In Ezekiel 24, we see God’s judgment unfold through a parable of a ruined pot, symbolizing Jerusalem’s fate, and the sudden loss of Ezekiel’s beloved wife as a sign to Israel. This study examines themes of obedience, divine equipping, and God’s faithfulness amid rebellion, connecting Old Testament prophecy to lessons for today’s Church. Keywords like voluntold, a blend of volunteer and told, highlight how God’s big asks—seen in Moses, Mary, Jonah, and Ezekiel—come with spiritual equipping and purpose, preparing believers for His plans.

Perfect for those searching for Bible study resources, sermons on Ezekiel, or insights into Christianity and prophecy, this video ties the historical siege of Jerusalem to God’s unchanging nature. Whether you’re exploring the Old Testament, seeking Calvary Chapel teachings, or studying the interplay of faith and judgment, this sermon offers rich scriptural depth. We’ll cover Ezekiel 24’s key verses, the significance of Jerusalem’s fall, and how God’s Word remains relevant for modern believers facing their own ‘voluntold’ moments.

Welcome to Prophecy Updates #819 – Shut-up, Daniel, part of our ongoing series exploring current world trends aligning with Bible prophecy. In this episode, we dive deep into the Book of Daniel, specifically Daniel 12:4, where it says, “shut up the words, and seal the book until the time of the end; many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall increase.” Join us as we unpack how today’s advancements in biometrics, Artificial Intelligence (AI), cashless commerce, human DNA manipulation, global government, instantaneous communication, and the push to rebuild the Temple on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount reflect biblical predictions for the end times.

This Bible study and sermon from a Calvary Chapel perspective examines how these prophetic signs are trending like never before. We explore two interpretations of “knowledge shall increase”: a growing understanding of God’s plan for Israel and the Church, as emphasized in dispensationalist teaching, and the explosion of technology, science, and global travel in the modern era. Artificial Intelligence stands out as a key focus, with experts like Elon Musk warning of its potential to surpass human intelligence and pose serious risks—could AI be setting the stage for end-times events?

For those seeking in-depth Bible prophecy insights, this video connects scripture to today’s headlines, highlighting the rapture, the Great Tribulation, and the distinct destinies of the Church and Israel. Jesus’ promise in Revelation 3:10 assures the Church escape from the coming hour of trial, while Israel’s salvation follows the Tribulation. The resurrection and rapture remain imminent—ready or not, Jesus is coming!

Perfect for Christians, Bible students, and prophecy enthusiasts, this episode offers a thought-provoking look at how technology and world events align with God’s Word.

Ezekiel 23:1-49 – Oho, Oho, A Harlot’s Life For Me

Welcome to our chapter-by-chapter Bible study series on the Old Testament book of Ezekiel with “Ezekiel 23:1-49 – Oho, Oho, A Harlot’s Life For Me.” This expository sermon unpacks Ezekiel 23, an allegory of two unfaithful sisters, Oholah (Samaria) and Oholibah (Jerusalem), representing Israel and Judah’s spiritual idolatry. Perfect for Christians, Bible students, and those exploring spirituality, this Calvary Chapel-style teaching dives into God’s Word to reveal His intimate and incessant love amidst human unfaithfulness.

In this video, we explore how God portrays Samaria and Jerusalem as harlots, unfaithful to Him despite His covenant. Oholah, meaning “her own tabernacle,” and Oholibah, “My tabernacle is in her,” highlight the northern and southern kingdoms’ idolatry after Solomon’s reign—Samaria’s false worship and Jerusalem’s defiled Temple. Ezekiel’s vivid language, paraphrased here for clarity, shows their pursuit of Assyrian and Babylonian lovers, symbolizing alliances with pagan nations and idols. God’s response—judgment through conquest—reflects His holy jealousy and deep sorrow, emotions echoing Hosea 11:8 and Hebrews 4:15, where Jesus sympathizes with us.

This sermon organizes Ezekiel 23 into two points: God’s intimate love (verses 1-10), hurt by spiritual infidelity, and His incessant love (verses 11-49), persisting despite Judah’s worse rebellion. Keywords like idolatry, unfaithfulness, Assyrians, Babylonians, and Egypt connect to New Testament warnings (1 John 5:21, 1 Corinthians 10:14, Colossians 3:5), urging believers to flee idolatry today. We see God’s heart broken by sin, yet His sovereignty unshaken, culminating in Babylon’s 70-year captivity and Israel’s future restoration.

For those searching Bible prophecy, Christianity, or Old Testament studies, this video ties Ezekiel to broader themes—Israel’s 1948 rebirth, the Great Tribulation, and Christ’s return. Whether you’re a Calvary Chapel fan or seeking expository preaching, this teaching equips you to understand God’s emotions and apply His truth. How does spiritual unfaithfulness hurt God today? Reflect with us.

Welcome to Prophecy Update #818 – His Number Is 6GG, part of our ongoing series exploring current world trends aligning with Bible prophecy about the end times. This video dives deep into biblical futurism, where we interpret unfulfilled prophetic passages as literal, physical, apocalyptic, and global future events. Join us for an in-depth Bible study examining how today’s technological advancements—biometrics, Artificial Intelligence (AI), cashless commerce, human DNA manipulation, global government, instant global communication, exponential knowledge growth, and the push to rebuild the Temple on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount—match predictions in the Book of Revelation.

In this sermon, we focus on 6G technology, the next generation of wireless innovation succeeding 5G. Expected by 2030, 6G promises faster speeds, lower latency, and efficient connectivity, enabling AI-driven networks, immersive augmented and virtual reality, Internet of Things (IoT) applications, smart cities, autonomous systems, and even brain-computer interfaces. These advancements aren’t just about better phones—they signal a tyrannical surveillance society foretold in Scripture. Revelation predicts a global government enforcing a cashless economy, accessible only through a personal biometric identifier on the forehead or hand. Once unimaginable, this system could launch today, perfectly describing the antichrist’s rule during the Great Tribulation.

We explore insights from experts like David Bowen, who warns of 6G’s role in a 40-year march toward total surveillance, control, and loss of autonomy. Samsung claims 6G will transform entertainment, medicine, education, and manufacturing, integrating AI and automation into every aspect of life. This aligns with end-times prophecy, where every action, conversation, and movement could be tracked and controlled—hallmarks of the future tribulation government.

For Christians, Bible students, and those curious about prophecy, this video connects today’s headlines to Revelation 3:10, where Jesus promises to keep believers from the hour of trial. The rapture and resurrection of the church are imminent—could happen any moment. Are you ready? This Calvary Chapel-style teaching urges you to get ready, stay ready, and keep looking up, because Jesus is coming soon.

Prophecy Update #817 – We Do Digital Right | Bible Prophecy, End Times, and the Coming Cashless System

Are we witnessing the rapid rise of a global, cashless economy that will play a role in end-times prophecy? In this week’s Prophecy Update #817, we examine how biometrics, artificial intelligence, and digital commerce are shaping a world that aligns with Bible prophecy. As technology advances, we see clear indications of a future system described in the Book of Revelation, where a one-world government will control global trade through a personal biometric identifier.

The Bible foretells a time when no one will be able to buy or sell without a mark on their hand or forehead (Revelation 13:16-17). What was once considered impossible is now becoming reality. From cashless transactions to AI-driven commerce, companies like Yum Brands (KFC, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut) are moving toward 100% digital sales, reflecting the technological infrastructure necessary for the prophesied global economic system.

What You’ll Learn in This Prophecy Update:

– How biometrics, AI, and digital payments point to the coming cashless society
– Why global corporations are pushing for 100% digital sales and what it means for Bible prophecy
– How the mark of the beast system could be implemented today
– What the Bible says about the seven-year Great Tribulation and the Antichrist’s economic control
– The promise of the rapture of the Church—why believers in Jesus Christ won’t be here for the tribulation

Signs of the Last Days – Are You Ready?

The resurrection and rapture of the Church is imminent. Jesus promised:
“I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the Earth.” (Revelation 3:10)

The world is being conditioned for a global system that will dominate during the Great Tribulation. But Christians have hope—we are not appointed to God’s wrath! Are you ready for the return of Jesus Christ?

Prophecy Update #816 – Trump & Temple

February 23, 2025

Prime Minister of Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel, recently called President Trump the greatest friend Israel has ever had in the White House. In his first term, President Trump did something amazing for Israel. He moved their embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.

There is a great deal of speculation that Jews in Jerusalem will take advantage of the Trump presidency in order to get the Temple built.

Those around Trump would like to see the Temple built. Speaking at an event in Jerusalem in 2018, now Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said there was “no reason why the miracle of re-establishing the Temple on the Temple Mount isn’t possible,” using the Israeli name for the raised plateau in occupied East Jerusalem where Al-Aqsa Mosque stands.

He also told attendees that Israel should take advantage of Trump being in office to do what they needed to do in the region, because there were “true believers” in Washington who would back them.

Right now it remains speculation. We are simply pointing-out that this is exactly what you would expect to read about in the news if you are familiar with the Bible and its prophecies.

Ezekiel 20:45-49 – I’ve Seen Fire & I’ve Seen Pain

February 16, 2025

The LORD describes His discipline of Judah and Jerusalem as a fire that will consume everything in its path.

Ezekiel was God’s 6th century prophet to the Judean Jews exiled in Babylon. A remarkable number of his prophecies were presented as silent theatrical dramas. When he did speak, Ezekiel frequently did so utilizing riddles, allegories, and metaphors. So much so that Ezekiel could say (in verse 49), “Ah, Lord GOD! They say of me, ‘Does he not speak parables?’ ”

Ezekiel describes the third and final siege of Jerusalem by the Babylonians as if it were a catastrophic forest fire.

Prophecy Update #815 – Hard To Swallow

February 16, 2025

Jesus compares His future death, burial, and resurrection to the experience of Jonah (Matthew 12:39-40). Jonah spent three days and three nights in the belly of a great fish, and similarly, Jesus would be in the tomb for three days and three nights before rising again.

I hope you saw the video this week of a kayaker being momentarily swallowed by a whale!

PROPHECY UPDATE #815 – HARD TO SWALLOW | Bible Prophecy & Viral News

What does a viral video of a kayaker getting swallowed by a whale have to do with Bible prophecy? In Matthew 12:39-40, Jesus compares His death, burial, and resurrection to the experience of Jonah, who spent three days and three nights in the belly of a great fish. This remarkable event foreshadowed Christ’s time in the tomb before His glorious resurrection.

While this recent whale encounter isn’t a direct prophetic sign, it does remind us of something undeniable: Jesus is alive, and He is coming back. Could God have a sense of humor and a flair for the dramatic? This Bible study and prophecy update explores the sign of Jonah, what Jesus meant by it, and why it still matters today.

Ezekiel 20:1-44 – National Inquirers: Idolatrous Minds Want To Know

February 9, 2025

The Elders of the nation of Judah come to inquire of the Lord, but they didn’t need a new message from God, they needed to obey what He had already revealed to them.

In our own lives, we may have experienced times when it seems as though God is not telling us what to do, where to go, and what to say. Likely He has already told us what we need to know.

Prophecy Update #814 – L.A. 2.0

January 26, 2025

In the wake of the fires in Los Angeles, some governmental leaders are suggesting we rebuild towns like Pacific Palisades and Eaton as ‘Smart Cities,’ with what they call a modern Marshall Plan. It sounds utopian, but history and prophecy suggest it would more likely be dystopian.

Control over the total population is predicted for the Last Days. There has never been a time in human history in which the government has had so many tools and the technology to significantly control everything about you.

In Prophecy Update #814 – L.A. 2.0, we explore the aftermath of the devastating fires in Los Angeles and the controversial proposal to rebuild towns like Pacific Palisades and Eaton as “Smart Cities.” While the idea of a modern Marshall Plan might sound promising, what does it mean for personal freedom? These Smart Cities could bring sweeping changes: no single-family zoning, mandatory public transit, and unprecedented government control over daily life. Could this be a utopian dream or a dystopian reality?

Bible prophecy foretells a time of total population control in the Last Days. Today’s technology gives governments tools to monitor and regulate society like never before. Could these Smart Cities be the stepping stones toward fulfilling end-times prophecy? Join us for an in-depth study of what the Bible says about the future and how current events align with Scripture.

Join us for Prophecy Update #812, where we explore the foundational Biblical hermeneutic used at Calvary Hanford—a literal, grammatical-historical approach to interpreting Scripture. In this video, we discuss why it’s essential to read the Bible as we would any other literature, paying attention to the plain, normal meaning of words, while recognizing literary devices like metaphors and symbols within their proper context.

This method leads us to two key conclusions:

The Bible should be understood in its straightforward, literal sense.
Ethnic Israel and the Church are distinct entities in God’s overarching plan for humanity.

By interpreting the Bible this way, we embrace a “normal” reading that honors its genre, historical setting, and the intent of its authors. This perspective not only enriches our understanding of Bible prophecy but also strengthens our faith as we see God’s plan unfolding with clarity and purpose.

What does it mean to bear spiritual fruit in God’s vineyard? In this expository sermon on Ezekiel 15:1-8, we explore the sobering imagery of the wild vine. The 6th-century Jews, called to abide in the Lord, chose to become unfruitful wildwood, destined for the fire. This powerful passage points us to Jesus’ words in John 15:5-6: “He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit. If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered.”

In this study, we’ll examine two key truths:
Your Yield Depends Upon Your Yielding
Your Burning Comes From Your Burdening

This message challenges us to reflect on our spiritual walk: Are we bearing fruit through abiding in Christ, or are we weighed down by worldly burdens, heading for judgment?

If you’re passionate about deep Bible study, understanding Old Testament prophecy, or uncovering connections to New Testament teachings, this sermon is for you. Perfect for those seeking Christian sermons, Calvary Chapel teachings, or insights into living a fruitful life in Christ.

Prophecy Update #794 – This Mount Is My Mount

July 28, 2024

None of the major news outlets understand the true cause of the fighting in Israel that began with the October 7 attack by Hamas.

In May of 2021 Hamas launched rockets in retaliation for Israeli security forces entering the Al Aqsa Mosque after Palestinians threw stones and other objects at them. Hamas opposes any changes to the status quo at Jerusalem’s Temple Mount.

The current war was started by Hamas in response to the arrival of the red heifers. These exceedingly rare animals are needed to establish worship on the Temple Mount. In January, 2024, a Hamas spokesman specifically identified the red heifers as proof Israel would soon try to destroy the Mosque & other Islamic buildings.

Prophecy Update #792 – Before Your Very Eyes

July 14, 2024

One day the Holy Land was under British control. The next day, Israel was a sovereign nation.

Over 2,800 years ago, the prophet Ezekiel spoke these words about Israel:

“I will take you from the nations and gather you from all the countries and bring you into your own land” (36:24).

The first part of that was fulfilled on May 14, 1948. Isaiah made this wild claim: “Who has heard such a thing? Who has seen such things? Shall the earth be made to give birth in one day? Or shall a nation be born at once? For as soon as Zion was in labor, She gave birth to her children” (66:8).

Does God’s Sovereignty Cancel Out Free Will?

July 2, 2024

Does the Biblical illustration of the potter and the clay prove that God’s sovereignty cancels out human free will?

Does God create some humans for salvation and others for damnation?

What are we to make of this word picture when we read passages like Romans 9?

You may be surprised to learn that every instance of this illustration concerns nations, not individuals.

Pastor Gene Pensiero shares some thoughts on this issue.

Isaiah 63:7-64:12 – One ClayNation, Under God, Impressionable

June 30, 2024

Isaiah illustrates God’s involvement with nations as a potter working with impressionable clay.

Certain aggressive but disturbing theologies teach that the Master Potter makes some ‘people-pottery’ that will definitely be saved, AND He makes some ‘people-pottery’ that cannot be saved. If you object to that awful depiction of God, they will look at you with their cold, steely eyes and say three words they believe will render you subdued and compliant: “God is sovereign.”

Of course God is sovereign! His sovereignty doesn’t mean God can behave in ways that are contrary to His nature. If something would be immoral for us to do, how much more terrible if God does it?

That approach to sovereignty reminds me of the famous Richard Nixon quote, “When the president does it, that means that it is not illegal.”

September 24, 2023

AI is everywhere these days – on your computer, at sports games, even in corporate board rooms. How might this line up with Bible prophecy?

It makes sense that the world would be moving in the direction that the prophecies predict. Biometrics, Artificial Intelligence, cashless commerce, the manipulation of human DNA, global government, the exponential growth of human knowledge, and the rebirth of national Israel are potential End Times phenomena the Bible predicts.

Prophecy Update #756 – The G

September 17, 2023

We are rushing headlong into the tyrannical one-world predicted in the Bible. If polls are correct, most of the people in the world favor it.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has determined that we have fewer than 10 years to reduce global emissions by half to avoid the worst impacts of catastrophic climate change. To tackle this urgent need, they say we must align food policy with climate policy and drastically reduce the amount of meat and dairy produced. This is especially true for countries with high consumption, like the United States. Cutting 90% of beef consumption and replacing 50% of other animal-based foods with plant-based foods in the United States would save more than 2 billion tons of greenhouse gas emissions from being released into our atmosphere by 2030.

Prophecy Update #755 – Let’s Get Digital, Digital

September 10, 2023

In the Revelation, one thing John was shown about the future was a cashless, global system of commerce. Have you heard about FedNow, the Federal Reserve’s new instant payment service?

We are on the verge of a global, completely cashless economy that will be accessed by a personal biometric identifier.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. calls trend “the slippery slope to financial slavery and political tyranny.” That’s an extreme statement, but you can see how it is true. Once you must rely upon an all digital economy, the government will most assuredly gain access to your account to punish you, or to force behaviors they deem necessary.

US cities listed as members are Austin, Boston, Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, New Orleans, New York City, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Portland, San Francisco, Washington, D.C., and Seattle.

Christians have long been accused of being conspiracy theorists for saying such things. Recently, I might say even suddenly, powerful groups of wealthy influencers, government officials, and tech giants, have come out of the closet with their radical global agendas.
