The contemporary Christian church is in critical decline, both in membership and finances. All attempts at reversal are failing, primarily because of the consuming socioeconomic-secular dynamic in which society is immersed in its self-destructive course. Consequently, Christian imagery is losing its conceivability and credibility, and past motivations that once encouraged belief have lost their appeal. Without these as points of contact, the demise of the institutional church will be relentless, despite all efforts to halt it. Yet, as at other crisis points in history, the divine promise has been to raise a “faithful remnant” with sufficient promise to outlast whatever the societal demise. After carefully analyzing the ingredients of our societal crisis, the author develops the contours of a “Remnant Church” to be set in place now within the present institutional churches. This necessitates distilling a vital spirituality and discerning the heart of a preservable tradition, sufficient to claim both personal and communal commitment. Thereby prepared for the long haul, the Remnant Church can emerge as a prophetic alternative.

"Let every student be plainly instructed and earnestly pressed to consider well the end of his life and studies is to know God and Jesus Christ, which is eternal life, and therefore to lay Christ in the bottom, as the only foundation of all sound knowledge and learning." -Harvard University 1636 If you grew up in America within the last 70 years, you've been lied to about the reality of your existence. You've been lied to about the roots of your great nation. And you've been lied to about the purpose of your life. A thick fog of religion, the pride of life and censored "education" has clouded the minds of several generations. Since the beginning of human history, God has been preserving a remnant of his offspring that will worship him in spirit and in truth. The remnant's population has always varied in size, from many millions to as few as just eight. The remnant cannot be identified by any single denomination or church affiliation. They are scattered like salt throughout the entire world. One such remnant came to America 400 years ago. These forefathers sacrificed their lives to build a society structured on the word of God. Now, our nation's foundation is being removed brick by brick, and at this rate our country's collapse is inevitable. The only way to avoid this downfall is to return to the source of stability and truth we were built on. The fate of our nation rests in the hands of the remnant. It rests on a conditional promise of God, IF... "If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land." 2 Chronicles 7:14 The end of the church age is upon us. The window is closing. God is giving the United States a celestial warning you need to see! The greatest harvest in American history is a close, tangible possibility! The harvest is plentiful, but the remnant is few! With all love, humility, and unity, join the harvest. Join The Remnant.

There is no remnant, Jewish or Christian present today, Romans 11:5 notwithstanding misinterpretations, refers to a remnant at the beginning of the Age of Grace dispensation. There is no Christian remnant and to misuse the term for Christians or the Church is in violation of God's rule for remnants that He has maintained throughout history. What God has given us is a view of Israel's future remnant, which He is yet to call. This book is about the Eschatological Jewish remnant, empowered by God to flee the Antichrist and his Abomination of Desolation, into the Wilderness. There God preserves the Jewish remnant and brings them into the Kingdom of God.

I have had the pleasure of living my entire life in a family of Christians. My children had many nonbelieving friends while growing up. As they individually reached out to their circle of friends, some saw the light and became believers, but not all accepted Jesus as their Savior. Others would tell one of my four children that they became Christians after watching how he or she had grown into adulthood committed to follow Christ. As a family, we would have discussions about the rapture because of Scripture or even books we read. Our concern was for our friends and relatives who never made a commitment to love the Lord. Our conversations left us wondering if (after the rapture) they would remember our talks and seek an answer, or would they just give up""believing it was too late? The Remnant of Truth Seekers "" Living God's Final Prophecies is a realistic, different, and definitely unique scenario of what might possibly occur after the rapture. Characters and locations develop as the story gains momentum. Readers will be drawn into the lives of these people as they watch them struggle and work through seven years of prophetic, biblical discovery. As truths are uncovered, they must be applied to their lives. Survival depends on community living much like the book of Acts. Life is now totally relevant to what the prophets in the Old Testament, and the apostles of the New Testament, penned for mankind. Life for the remnant parallels much of what is found in Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, and Revelation, as well as the unfulfilled prophecies in the New Testament. The end of their saga does not come at Armageddon, but when God Almighty is reigning on and in His new heaven and new earth. The Holy Bible will always define "real life" for anyone who is interested in knowing the truth!

In the year 2069 the Apocalypse came and went, but Jesus didn't show up, as some expected. Instead, a cataclysmic war, natural disasters and pandemics eradicated 90 percent of earth's population. Now, in 2131, a totalitarian government rules the world from the majestic, opulent capitol of Carthage, Tunisia. Blamed for igniting the war, religion and religious books are banned. Citizens who will not renounce their religion are sent to work camps. Grant Cochrin, imprisoned in a bleak petroleum camp in what was once North Dakota, leads his family and friends to escape and embark on a long, dangerous quest for a Christian community. Their resource in this journey? A cherished page torn from the now banished Bible-a remnant of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount handed down from Grant's grandparents. What if there were an Apocalypse and Jesus didn't return? What if the survivors found themselves living in a world ruled by a totalitarian government, where religion is forbidden and all religious texts have been destroyed? In The Remnant, award-winning author Monte Wolverton tells the tale of a band of concentration camp escapees who trek through the lawless American wilderness on a quest for authentic Christianity, only to come face to face with an unthinkable dilemma. The Remnant is a fast-paced story punctuated with dry satire, memorable characters and hard questions about religious institutions.

This book provides a thorough presentation of postmillennialism. Postmillennialism is the eschatological system of Scripture that holds that the gospel of Jesus Christ will gradually win world-wide sway. The postmillennialist believes that o ne day before Christ returns the world as a system will be Christianized, operating on biblical principles in all areas of life. This will lead to a long period in which righteousness, peace, and prosperity will prevail in the earth. He Shall Have Dominion argues for Christianity's dominance in world affairs be means of scores of Bible verses and numerous theological observations. It provides three entire chapters answering objections to the postmillennial hope.

The Great Controversy between Christ and Satan is reaching its final battle. Those who keep the commandments and have the faith of Jesus Christ play a significant role in the outcome of this battle. God's Remnant Church has been given the Great Commission as their mission objective. Yet, Satan has crept behind enemy lines, implementing the distraction of division among the ranks. Understanding that a house divided against itself cannot stand, Satan has been successful in causing division in the church, distracting them from their mission by encouraging them to argue over various issues. But there is a remedy to this poison that has infected the minds of God's people, as the Word of God shows Satan to have used this tactic before. This book will take you on a journey through the last moments of the ministry of Christ, showing how Christ himself experienced in the church of his time, what we are experiencing today. By studying, understanding, and using biblical history as our example, we will learn how to stand in these last days, lest we fall. Are you ready to receive the remedy?

As ancient Israel's size and influence declined, her prophets began to increasingly predict a new act from God that would accomplish three things on a global scale: (1) a purifying judgment that would reset the scales of justice and remove the degrading effects of evil; (2) the carving out of a remnant community deeply devoted to Yahweh, expanding to include international participation; and (3) the ushering in of a messianic age in which goodness, harmony, and righteousness would pervade every dimension of life on earth. Jesus' disciples connected the prophetic Day of the Lord with his coming and redemptive work. Yet many questioned whether the full impact was made manifest in Jesus, since wars did not cease, broad judgment on sin and evil was not unleashed, and the full blessings of the predicted messianic age were not evident. Jesus did something that no one had anticipated, however, by splitting the Day of the Lord into two divine acts instead of one. This is what distinguishes Christianity from its Jewish roots, as well as its Islamic successor—neither of which acknowledge this unique aspect of Jesus' person and work, or the reworking of how and when the Day of the Lord would take place.
