Ezekiel: Prophet on Steroids, Part 2
There just isn’t a prophet quite like Ezekiel. Isaiah . . . wears Ezekiel pajamas. Ezekiel can kill two stones with one bird. He can order a Big Mac at Burger King . . . and get one. Okay, well, … Continue reading

Ezekiel: Prophet on Steroids, Part 1

Read this one slowly and with the book of Amos close at hand. Read it more than once over the next few days. Perhaps it will revive you as it did me. …………………………. Of the minor prophets, Amos has always … Continue reading

Revelation 7, Israel, the Church, and Tabernacles
Last week I lamented the unfortunate conclusions Grant Osborne came to in his otherwise excellent commentary on Revelation. Like many other commentators, he reads Israel out of Revelation. Israel shows up in Revelation in four places: chapters 7, 11, 12, … Continue reading
