This periodical highlights the life, ministry, and distinctive's of the ARP. Apologetics.com = This site was recommended by a college student who gave it high marks as a resource. That same week, I ran into one of the website authors. Great guy and good message. They are continuing to expand! Check out the resources and podcasts (even the shows that RevK has appeared on HERE and HERE and HERE and HERE and many others...) www.monergism.com = This website is the standard for Reformation Theology! Compiled at this location are articles, sermons, outlines, and further links to the "leaders" of Reformation thought, both past and present. If you are researching any topic of theology, you should FIRST search it out here! www.whitehorseinn.org = The Whitehorse Inn radio program has been broadcasting challenging and convicting episodes for over ten years. This "panel discussion" program explores the Scriptures and our culture (church and popular) with a clearly Biblical worldview. Access past shows here.

Visit this link and listen (or watch) seminars and presentations on the purpose and status of the modern church. www.freebiblesoftware.com = Do you want to read theological classics, and have them fully searchable on your computer?

Communion Presbyterian Church Blog = Reflections from RevK Olivet Discourse Comparison Chart = The synoptic gospels have a similar topical flow to answering the question, ""Tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the close of the age?" How many questions do you read in that sentence? Is this the outline for Jesus' answer? The first section is the set up: No stones left upon each other. The second section is a description of the intervening years between Christ's Ascension and the destruction of Jerusalem in 70AD; a period manifesting: False Messiahs, Global 'birth pains,' Jewish persecution of Christians, Global advance of the gospel, The abomination that causes desolation (read Luke's 'surrounding armies') [Note chiastic elements of Mat. 24:3-28] The third section is Apocalyptic language reminiscent of Old Testament prophets announcing God's judgment and signals the end for, "this generation." (read rebellious, unbelieving Israel, circa 70AD) The final section concerns, "that day;" THE 'Day" of Jesus' return and consummation of all things.
