Welcome to The Berean Call podcast. I’m T. A. McMahon, TBC’s Executive Director. We’re currently re-airing a discussion I had with Dave Hunt in 2003 featuring his book Countdown to the Second Coming.
In this segment, I recount a timeline of significant prophecies beginning with Genesis all the way to the Great Tribulation, which is indicated in the Book of Revelation.
Dave refers to those prophecies as “history written in advance.” He explains the difference between the Judgment Seat of Christ and the Great White Throne Judgment. The former has to do with a believer’s works and the latter a person’s judgment for rejecting Jesus Christ.
Dave also talks about the Antichrist and his false peace agreement with Israel. That—and much more—to come.
Significant Prophecies from Genesis to Revelation

Are you Ready for Christ's Return?
May 21, 2021 • Dave Hunt and T.A. McMahon
In this final chapter of Countdown, Dave talks about some fundamental teachings of the Word of God that tell us how we are to go about living the Christian life. He cites verses in Colossians chapter 3 that give believers in Jesus instructions, what we ought to be and what we are to do to please Him, and what believers are to put off that displease Him and bring about destruction in their lives. In addition, Dave and I discuss what a believer’s motivation and objective is to be during our temporal life, such as setting our affection on the things which are above, not on things of this earth. That affection has to be first and foremost our increasing love for Jesus, who must be the complete objective of a Christian’s life. Dave also points out what separates biblical Christianity from the other religions of the world.

Does Hope Need a Reason?
May 7, 2021 • Dave Hunt and T.A. McMahon
In this session Dave and I address the subject of hope, which the lost of this world do not have—certainly not hope in God. Instead, they have a substitute of hope in various forms such as a positive mental attitude and wishful thinking. They are centered upon feelings and have no basis in reason. Biblical hope, on the other hand, is rooted in reason. Throughout the Scriptures, God gives us reasons to place our hope in Him. They are foundational to knowing and putting our faith in Him. Dave points out that as finite beings there are many things about our infinite God that we cannot comprehend, yet we can believe in Him based upon the reasons we can comprehend.
