The Terminal Generation

Jan Markell and Eric Barger feature two guests. Dr. Gary Frazier reminds listeners that we are likely the terminal generation, the generation to experience Christ’s return, since Israel is back in her land. We feature Frazier’s newest book, The Miracle of Israel found here. Israel is the key to all events playing out today. David Fiorazo joins Jan and Eric to take a further look at the “me generation”. People today take 93 million “selfie” photos a day and obsess over themselves. The Bible predicts such self-absorption for a final generation. Find Fiorazo’s book here.

When a Prophet is a False Prophet

Because Seventh-Day Adventism is in the news, our hosts consider that belief system and ask if it is a cult? Ellen G. White, their leader, is clearly a false prophet. Does that mean that we shouldn’t vote for Dr. Ben Carson—who is an honorable and righteous man? And what’s wrong with annihilationism or the false doctrine that hell is not eternal? This is a part of Seventh-Day Adventist theology. Jan Markell, Eric Barger, and cult expert Jill Martin Rische consider these issues. They also look further into the coming censorship of all Christians and conservatives. Yet Islam must be glorified and protected. We use the mobile app found at www.oneplace.com.

The Unraveling: Distress with Perplexity of Nations

Jan Markell and Eric Barger first talk to Anne Graham Lotz about the unraveling and distress with perplexity among the nations as history winds down. Is God trying to get the world’s attention? Anne reminds us that God always warns before judgment. They also focus on the hope of Heaven in dark times. They discuss the wounding by God’s people of each other and how this can cause many to walk away from the Lord and the church. Then Jan Markell talks to filmmaker George Escobar who is producing a theater version of “Trapped in Hitler’s Hell.” Find that current documentary about Anita Dittman here.

Many Shall Come in My Name

Jan Markell and Eric Barger host former New Ager Warren Smith for the hour. This movement is now called the “new spirituality” and you would be surprised how even evangelical leaders fit into it. The chief proponent of it is Oprah Winfrey who is now utilizing Rob Bell to further this Satanic agenda. Why would Rick Warren tap into three men with involvement in this “new spirituality” to be a part of a program at Saddleback Church? Hear from one who attended this outrageous seminar. We carry Smith’s excellent book, False Christ Coming: What New Age Leaders Really Have in Store for America, the Church, and the World. Find it here. We use the mobile app found at www.oneplace.com.

The Most Dangerous Cult: Liberalism

Jan Markell, Eric Barger, and Jill Martin Rische spend the hour discussing the most dangerous cult, the cult of liberalism. Mainline Protestantism caved to it 150 years ago and now evangelicals are doing the same. Order Eric Barger’s excellent updated DVD on this subject here. Liberalism is ravaging our churches, colleges, and seminaries. Find out who the leaders of this movement are and how you can combat liberalism if it is in your world and church. Though the liberal church will say they are Christians, they have taken their eyes off of the important issues of eternity. We use the mobile app found at www.oneplace.com.
