While on my flight from Okinawa to Taipei, I was able to read an Asian International Newspaper from Taiwan. There were a lot of interesting articles. Most of them focus on what is happening on this side of the world. There were many articles printed about Russia. It really stirred my heart so I made this little video. There is so much written in the Bible about the last battle: The Battle of Armageddon. There is no way that I could explain it all in this short message, but again these are some thoughts that the Lord stirred in me. Double click on the video above. God bless you, Pastor Tommy

Tom, please, please, please state your opinion as your opinion, and not as "you know the Bible tells us". A clear distinction between what the text says and what your interpretation of the text is would be much appreciated.

OMG! I agree with the below commentator. I do think that one's opinion is detrimental to others that closely follow behind Pastor Tom.
The point is Christ is coming back soon guys...lets not focus on the contreversal details but lets focus an what Christ does say (Rev. 22:20)He who testifies to these things says, "Surely I am coming quickly," Amen. Even so, come, quickly Lord Jesus! Guys let's just remember this video is just agreeing with this scripture. It's another witness of the Lord through world events, put on Tom's heart that He is coming quickly. Doesn't matter about anything else let's just focus on Him and all those who aren't even ready for it. Amen
I am always encouraged when I read the writings of men or women of the past who used the same analogies and seemed to feel the same frustrations that we do, when it comes to reaching the lost. Thomas Watson, way back in 1660, wrote of something he called “cruel mercy.” He quoted Jude 23 (“Rescue others by snatching them from the fire!") and then said, “If a man's house were on fire, and another should see it and not tell him of it, for fear of waking him--would not this be cruelty? When we see others sleeping in their sin, and the fire of God's wrath ready to burn them up--and we are silent--is not this cruelty?” All around us we have professed firefighters who prefer to stay in the comfort of the fire station and let people burn. So you and I have a two-fold task 1. To awaken those within the Church to their sober responsibility to reach out to the unsaved. And, 2. To reach out to those who are ignorant as to their true state before God. Perhaps the two tasks are one in the same.
LET'S GO FISHING !!!
To concerned reader and OMG. Thank you for your comments on e3missions. As you study the Word of God there are three things that we should not be ignorant of; 1. Spiritual Gifts, 2. Typology of Jesus Christ in the Old Testament and 3. End times (Jon Courson commentary). As you study the Book of Revelation it tells us in the last days that Gog and Magog are gathered to the Battle of Armageddon. Also in Ezekiel 38:4 we are told that Gog will be led out into battle with a hook. Most Bible Commentaries are universal in their belief that Gog and Magog are a direct reference to our modern day Russia. As you study the geographical area of these references it is quite clear. Also, we know that Persia, Ethiopia and Libya will be with them (Ezek.38:5), making reference to the Muslim nations. It it so amazing to see Bible Prophecy being fulfilled right before our eyes. Jesus say in the last days " when these things begin to happen, look up for your redemption draws nigh" (Lk.21:28), Praise the Lord! Jesus is coming back soon! Let's all be ready.
Agape,
Pastor Tommy
I agree! Let's be mindful of the end times but careful as to how we may interject our opinion as we interpret the scriptures.
Let's be ready for the Lord!
