This site is a teaching ministry of the Disciples Global Network offering studies on Bible prophecy and related subjects. The goal is to understand each passage in its literary and historical contexts. The theological center of the Bible is Jesus - his Death and Resurrection. All God's promises and "mysteries" find their significance and actualization in him.

I have been a student of the Bible since my conversion in 1971. Over the decades, I have developed a particular interest in end-time prophecy. I live in the City of Gardnerville in Nevada, U.S.A.

Paul’s description of the “ arrival ” or ‘ Parousia ’ of Jesus in his first letter to the Thessalonians was written to comfort the Assembly concerning the fate of their compatriots who died before that event could take place. They needed not sorrow “ like the others ” since the righteous dead would be resurrected when the Lord “ arrived ” from Heaven.
