I was hesitantly baptized in the name of Jesus Christ last month. I say hesitantly because I understood the urgency, but I knew I didn’t really want to turn from my sins. Part of me was still in denial that the God of the Bible could …

As the storm clouds of this life gather into dark and ominous-looking monsters, especially as we see the signs of the coming Tribulation rapidly unfold, it is crucial that we, the ready remnant,[1] remember just who it is we serve.
