Practical application of Pentecostal theology in politics, economy and social issues
DIFFERING PERSONALITIES IN A CHURCH FELLOWSHIP We have begun 2023. I don’t believe in new year resolutions, but always we should assess ourselves with the Scriptures as the standard. We have no other benchmark other than the Bible, and to follow the philosophy that is in the world, or what the world wants to program […]
The post Message for the New Year 2023 :: By Ron Ferguson appeared first on Rapture Ready.
I want to talk to my American Christian friends. Please don’t think this presumptuous of me, as I am not a resident of an American State. The recent election (2022) may not have been the result you were expecting, or the projected media results tilting towards the Republicans gaining both Houses with great gains. It […]
The post For My American Christian Friends :: By Ron Ferguson appeared first on Rapture Ready.
This is an important posting. Please do not tune out and ignore what is happening now at increasing speed. We need to be able to read the signs of the time, and that is biblical, from the Lord Himself. Matthew 16:3 “and in the morning, ‘There will be a storm today for the sky is […]
The post Critically Reading Signs of The Times in The Last Days :: By Ron Ferguson appeared first on Rapture Ready.
INTRODUCTION Talk to Christians about heaven and what that will be like, and you have so many variant answers. That is normal, for none of us knows any details, and a lot of what we think is more in line with our own assumptions. What will you do there? Will we meet our friends and […]
The post Whom Will You Meet In Heaven? :: By Ron Ferguson appeared first on Rapture Ready.
We don’t have to labor the point of how bad things are outside the Christian framework. We all know that, the readers and contributors of RaptureReady. The world’s agenda is fast in decline in its philosophy and its direction. I am appalled at the wicked Marxist leadership in my own State and in my nation […]
The post Another Look: Conditions in the World and the Church:: By Ron Ferguson appeared first on Rapture Ready.
This talk continues from Part 4. This is the last one in this series. We live in troubled times when the very foundations of our faith are being shaken. So many qualified people have written and spoken on this subject that sometimes it feels like one is climbing on the backs of those who were […]
The post Liberal Theology in the Churches: Part 5 :: By Ron Ferguson appeared first on Rapture Ready.
We will continue this three-part series on the Easter Message from a poem of mine. Today, we will look at the thoughts derived from the next 11 stanzas. The material in the poem comes from the following scriptures: Psalm 22 Psalm 69 Isaiah 52 and 53 The Gospel accounts of the betrayal night and the […]

[A]. THE FACE OF SATAN Have you seen the face of Satan? No, I don’t expect you have, nor will you, but Jesus has. He knew the anointed cherub because He created him. He knew him when he was perfect in all his ways. Some don’t acknowledge the Ezekiel passage as relating to Lucifer/Satan, but […]
The post Satan’s Origin, Influence, and Activity Today :: By Ron Ferguson appeared first on Rapture Ready.
The Lord Will Not Call His Church from Heaven Not really. He will not call from heaven for the saints to go home. He opens the door in heaven according to Revelation 4:1, and there is a cry, “Come up here!” It is one of the joys of scripture when we compare verses. Not to […]
The post A Rapture Viewpoint :: By Ron Ferguson appeared first on Rapture Ready.
Throughout the world, in nearly every Easter message, you will hear the words Calvary and crucified. You will probably also hear the words “cross, Jesus of Nazareth, thieves, Pilate, resurrection,” and several others. I will be using some of those terms today. ONE VERY EVIL MAN Esther 7:9-10 “Then Harbonah, one of the eunuchs who […]
The post Four People Crucified at Calvary: Easter Message :: By Ron Ferguson appeared first on Rapture Ready.
This message will bring to an end our consideration of the events at Calvary, relying on details from Isaiah 53, Psalm 22, Psalm 69, and the Gospels. I have based the messages on my poem called “Victory Through Sorrow’s Deep Sea.” “Let Me not be swallowed by the deep. Dishonour has covered My face; And […]

We recently were on a cruise from Australia to New Zealand, and it was a blessing to have met on that cruise a reader of Rapture Ready. That is the first one I have met. ————————————————————————————————————————— I am finding more and more that there is a decay in biblical standards and the theology of the […]
