Reading Time: 3 minutesQuestion 8047 Dreams appear throughout Scripture as one of the channels through which God communicated with His people, from Joseph’s dreams in Genesis to the angel’s appearances to Joseph in Matthew’s Gospel. The question of whether Satan can use dreams in the same way requires both honest engagement with what Scripture says and appropriate restraint…
Reading Time: 3 minutesQuestion 8012 Gabriel is one of only two angels named in the canonical Scriptures, and his role is remarkably consistent across every appearance: he comes to bring understanding, to interpret visions, and to announce the purposes of God at moments of supreme significance in redemptive history. Where Michael is a warrior, Gabriel is a herald….
Reading Time: 4 minutesQuestion 10201 Revelation is among the most misread books in the Bible, and part of the reason is that readers approach it in isolation. In fact, it is the most densely allusive book in the entire New Testament, saturated with the imagery and language of the Old Testament prophets on virtually every page. Estimates suggest…
Reading Time: 4 minutesQuestion 10011 This is one of the most asked questions in Christianity, and it has been asked since the earliest days of the Church. The disciples themselves wanted to know. “Tell us, when will these things be?” (Matthew 24:3) The answer Jesus gave them, and the answer Scripture gives us, is both clear and mysterious….
Reading Time: 6 minutesQuestion 10202 One of the most common objections to the pretribulational Rapture is the claim that the “last trumpet” of 1 Corinthians 15:52 must be the same as the seventh trumpet of Revelation 11:15.

Reading Time: 3 minutesQuestion 10029 The question of whether modern Jewish people are still God’s chosen people sits at the intersection of some of the most important and most contested doctrines in Christian theology. The answer you give depends heavily on how you read the Old Testament promises, what you understand the relationship between Israel and the church…
Reading Time: 4 minutesQuestion 10146 Whenever a new technology emerges, a segment of the Christian world immediately maps it onto biblical prophecy. The internet, microchip implants, artificial intelligence, digital currencies, global surveillance networks: each has been identified, at one time or another, as the fulfilment of specific prophetic passages. The question of whether modern technology is “related to”…
Reading Time: 4 minutesQuestion 10166 The concept of a one-world government is embedded deeply in the prophetic landscape of Scripture, particularly in the books of Daniel and Revelation. It is also a feature of contemporary geopolitical discussion, though the biblical picture and the secular conversation are not always talking about the same thing. The question is not whether…
Reading Time: 3 minutesQuestion 10092 Jesus told His disciples that “wars and rumours of wars” would characterise the period leading up to the end (Matthew 24:6; Mark 13:7). In every generation since, believers have looked at the conflicts of their own era and wondered whether these are the wars Jesus meant. The question of how Christians should respond…
Reading Time: 4 minutesQuestion 10106 The book of Revelation describes a future religious system of staggering scope: a global religious entity that seduces the nations, persecutes the saints, and ultimately serves the purposes of the Antichrist before being destroyed by the very powers she rode to prominence. The idea of a one-world religion is not a conspiracy theory…
