Go Away or I Shall Taunt You A Second Time-a!

By | 23 Jul 2024

While my title for this article recalls what has to be one of the funniest scenes in cinematic history — as well as being one of my all-time personal favorites! 🤣 — the actual topic at hand is exceptionally serious.

Now that we’ve explored the challenges involved when interpreting prophesy, explored some commonly-bandied-about end-times terminology, and examined the significant historical events surrounding some of them, we’ll now tackle the prevalent mythos surrounding this complex topic. As the title of this article indicates, it involves the pervasive false beliefs arising from Hal Lindsey’s book. Sherman, set the Wayback Machine… Read More »
