On today’s program, host Brent Nagtegaal outlines the right approach to ascertaining whether a discovery supports the Bible or not. He then applies that approach to recent archaeological claims regarding the dating of King David’s Palace, the location of biblical Ziklag, and the ethnic identity of Khirbet Qeiyafa.

History and Prophecy of the Middle East

The next time you read about peace in the Middle East, consider the facts: For over 4,000 years, the Middle East as been fraught with cultural, political and religious violence.

A powerful and genuine example of peace was given to this world for a tiny period of time. (Was it prophesied in your Bible?)

Jerusalem in Prophecy

Jerusalem means “city of peace,” and yet this city’s history has been filled with rivers of blood! No city has suffered like Jerusalem. It has known almost no peace. But there is very good news. God established Jerusalem to be a city of peace—and will one day make sure that it becomes so! It is actually the city from which God will rule the entire universe!

Many people are aware of the atrocities committed by Germany in World War II but would consider them ancient history. These people are completely unaware of the legacy which Adolf Hitler drew upon in creating his Nazi war machine. His was merely the latest resurrection of a war-making empire with a long and bloody history. Did you know that the Bible prophesied of his regime-as well as the terrible emergence of one last resurrection in our day?
