Gary concludes his interview with Steve Deace about eschatology. Terms are defined, views are set forth, and questions are asked. Bible prophecy and "end-time" events can be controversial, but Gary keeps his interpretation tied to Scripture without appealing to current events.

A Short Course on Biblical Eschatology (Part One)
The Gary DeMar Podcast
Gary was recently interviewed by Steve Deace about Bible prophecy and eschatology. In this first part, Gary defines terms and gives a quick method of interpretation (hermeneutics) for Christians to follow as they read their Bibles and encounter difficult passages. It's not wise to always rely on the "experts" (who have been wrong over and over and over again).

Reading Matthew, Trusting Jesus (Part One)
The Gary DeMar Podcast
In this first part of his interview with author Jonathan Sedlak, Gary introduces listeners to Jonathan and his new book, Reading Matthew, Trusting Jesus. This academic work on the long history of Christian interpreters and their views on the Olivet Discourse in Matthew 24-25 is fascinating and important. Their conversation ran more than an hour, so we split it into two parts. Get Jonathan's book here:

Ezekiel 38-39 and Modern Israel
The Gary DeMar Podcast
Gary concludes his response to a recent sermon by Pastor Jack Hibbs about how close we are to the end. Pastor Hibbs jumps from Matthew 24 to Ezekiel 38-39 claiming it also is yet to happen. Gary makes the biblical and exegetical case that the events described in Ezekiel 38-39 have already taken place. Pastor Hibbs sermon can be found here:

Tattoos, Transgenderism, and Slavery
The Gary DeMar Podcast
Gary discusses a short video clip where a grandmother says that she supports hormone blockers for young people, including her own granddaughters, but opposes tattoos because they're "permanent." This astounding ignorance reveals how people seldom connect what they believe about one thing and how it affects (and contradicts) other things.

The Two Witnesses
The Gary DeMar Podcast
Gary answers a listener question about the two witnesses from Revelation 11. Are these actual people, or groups of people, or something else? There is of course an Old Testament applicability to these witnesses and we must not ignore the OT requirement in interpreting Revelation 11, as well as the rest of the book.
