Will the Roman Empire Be Revived?

April 2, 2021 • Dave Hunt and T.A. McMahon

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 episode Dave addresses the Bible prophecy regarding the revived Roman Empire, an event that seemed impossible given the dominance of worldwide Communism. Yet it was through the involvement of Pope John Paul II, President Ronald Reagan, and Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev that the Berlin Wall came down and communism began to break up.

Dave relates the significance of that historic event in opening the way for the coming kingdom of the Antichrist, which will take place after the church is caught up to heaven in the Rapture. The Antichrist, who will be empowered by Satan, will then rule over and be worshiped by the entire world.

That discussion and more are just ahead.

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.

When Will Our Hope Be Realized?

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.
