About Our MinistryWelcome to our Prophecy in the News Web Site. We are pleased to make you a part of the growing number of people across the world who have discovered the blessing of studying Bible prophecy. Prophecy in the News was established in 1979 in Oklahoma City, OK, for the purpose of providing the Christian community with the tools needed to study this most obscure of all the methods of interpretation. The Bible contains the story of not only where we came from, but where we are going as well. God did not leave us without a "blessed hope" for the future. When our Savior ascended into heaven, He promised to come back someday. All of the prophets in the Bible wrote about that day. However, over the centuries, the expectation of His return surged, then diminished for a time, only to flourish again. In this generation, there is more anticipation for the return of Christ than ever before. It is, therefore, our purpose to help explain this phenomenon and keep it in perspective with current events. Over the past 20 years, our television program has grown to include stations across America - plus two satellite networks - Sky Angel and INSP, reaching the entire western hemisphere. Out of that came our efforts to publish books, tapes, and a monthly magazine. Our desire is to reach as many as possible with materials designed to inspire and strengthen you in your Christian life. Thank you in advance for taking the time to get to know us. We encourage you to subscribe to Sky Angel Satellite System - our favorite access to Christian television, offering 36 Christian television and radio channels. Visit the Sky Angel web site at www.skyangel.com or call 1-800-SKY-ANGEL for information on how you can receive them and us on your TV set!Statement of Faith
We are often asked for a
Statement of Faith. Such a request is a valid one. Indeed, it is a question
which ought to be asked, for the Bible tells us to “try the spirits whether
they are of God” (I John 4:1), and we gladly offer this declaration: 1.
We believe in God,
revealed in three persons — God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy
Spirit. 2.
We believe that Jesus
Christ, the only begotten Son of God, was born of a virgin, lived a sinless
life, died on the cross to atone for our transgressions, and rose again on the
third Day. He ascended into Heaven with a promise to return some day. 3.
We believe that it is
solely by the grace of God that man, as a condemned sinner, receives salvation
through faith in Jesus Christ to forgive sin. Only then are we held blameless
by the Father. Faith in Jesus Christ saves us from a literal hell, for a
literal, eternal Heaven. 4.
We believe the Bible is
the verbally inspired infallible Word of God, inerrant in its original
manuscripts. The Scriptures should be dispensationally interpreted. 5.
We believe the Bible
clearly teaches that Jesus Christ is coming again — first in the air to
resurrect those believers who have died and to rapture those who are still
alive. His coming may occur at any moment prior to the Tribulation Period. 6.
We believe in the
visible, personal, premillennial return of Jesus Christ to the earth at the
close of the Great Tribulation. He will establish His kingdom and reign for
1,000 years. Afterward, we shall enter the Holy City, New Jerusalem, where we
shall live and serve God throughout eternity. 7.
We believe in God’s
promise of eternal life for the saved and His warning of eternal damnation for
the lost. If you, dear friend, have not yet come to a saving
knowledge of Jesus Christ as your own personal Savior, we would count it a
privilege to pray with you on this most important decision of your life. You
have only to ask. Call and ask for J. R. Church or Gary Stearman at
