This week we continue the discussion about end time deception and the movement of the dragon, the beast, and the false prophet as they manifest their counterfeit worship system. Focusing on Revelation 17-18, what does God warn us this counterfeit system will do? How many will be deceived? What false doctrines do they teach? Who will be on the Lord's side? What is God's counter-strategy? What appeal does God make to those who are in spiritual Babylon today?

With all the deception, how can we know the true end time church? As we see hypocrisy, mixed messages, and confusion in the church, can we be sure that God still has a plan for His people? While, today, the church seems unclear in its message to the world, the church and the world seem to be on the same page. Learn how the prophecy of Revelation 17 predicts the confusion and mixed messages we hear today. What is God's plan in all this?

This week we discuss the United States in prophecy (Part 2). Can we be sure of the role the U.S. will play in end time events? Does the Bible mention the U.S.? What is it's connection with the anti-christ power? Which side in the final conflict will it be on? In this study we take another in depth look at Revelation 13 which holds the key U.S. involvement in end times. But how soon could these events occur?

John Spellman preaches at the Outreach SDA Church in St. Albans. The focus of this message is on Galatians 4:28-31. Paul uses the story of Hagar and Sarah (the bond and free woman) as an allegory for the Old Covenant and New Covenant church. But how might this feud between the two women illustrate what goes on in our Christian experience today? How can we learn from this story? Both women had children (Ishmael & Isaac) by the patriarch Abraham, and both had expectancy toward the inheritance. However, only the child of the free woman would be the heir. What does that mean for us today?

Based on Numbers 21:4-9, many folks are dying in the wilderness. Why does God take us through difficult experiences? Do these experiences mean God has forgotten about us or abandoned us? As we study the path the Israelites took toward the Promised Land, we can have clarity on why sometimes God takes us down difficult paths.
