Bible Prophecy Answers with Dr. Alan Kurschner

<p>The History of the Battles of Armageddon<br /> What This Bible Prophecy Session Is About</p> <p>In this opening session on the history of the battles of Armageddon, viewers are introduced to the biblical, geographical, and theological background behind one of the most misunderstood places in Scripture. Rather than treating Armageddon as a vague symbol of catastrophe or a pop-culture reference to global destruction, this message explains that Armageddon is a real place connected to Megiddo and the broader Jezreel Valley in northern Israel. This teaching helps viewers understand what the original readers of Revelation would have heard when John referred to “Armageddon” and why this region carries such massive prophetic significance.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com/the-history-of-the-battles-of-armageddon/">The History of the Battles of Armageddon</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com">Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner</a>.</p>

<p>The Third Temple: What the Bible Says About Jerusalem, Temple Mount, and End-Time Deception</p> <p>In this final session, Ryan Habbena takes a careful, biblical look at one of the most discussed prophecy topics today: the Third Temple. This teaching walks through the history of the temple in the Bible, from the tabernacle in the days of Moses, to Solomon’s Temple, to the Second Temple, and then examines what Scripture says about a future temple connected to the abomination of desolation, the Antichrist, and events surrounding the end of the age.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com/the-third-temple/">The Third Temple</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com">Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner</a>.</p>

<p>Session 5: Decoding the Second Half of Daniel’s 70th Week</p> <p>In this intensive fifth session of the Abomination of Desolation conference, we dive deep into the specific chronological markers provided in the Book of Revelation and the Book of Daniel. While many interpretations of the "End Times" exist, this session focuses on the literal, grammatical, and historical context of the scriptures to provide a clear picture of the final years leading to the return of Christ.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com/revelation-explained-1260-days-42-months-time-times-and-a-half-time/">EXPLAINED: 1,260 Days, 42 Months, Time, Times and a Half Time</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com">Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner</a>.</p>

<p>Antichrist Takes His Seat: Understanding the 2nd Thessalonians 2 Prophecy</p> <p>Is the church destined to witness the arrival of the Antichrist? In this deep-dive session, we unpack one of the most pivotal and debated passages in all of biblical prophecy: 2nd Thessalonians 2:1-4. If you have ever felt confused by the timing of the Rapture, the "Day of the Lord," or the "Abomination of Desolation," this video provides the grammatical and historical clarity you need to understand the days ahead.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com/man-of-lawlessness-and-the-temple-of-god-in-2-thessalonians-24/">Man of Lawlessness and the Temple of God in 2 Thessalonians 2:4</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com">Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner</a>.</p>

<p>Understanding Daniel 11–12: The 1,290 Days and the Abomination of Desolation</p> <p>The prophecies found in the Book of Daniel have captivated scholars, theologians, and believers for millennia. Specifically, the closing chapters—Daniel 11 and 12—present some of the most intricate chronological markers in the entire Bible. This video exploration dives deep into the "nexus" of prophetic fulfillment, focusing on the mysterious timeframes of 1,290 and 1,335 days, the role of Michael the Archangel, and the future reality of the Abomination of Desolation.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com/1290-days-and-the-abomination-of-desolation-in-daniel-11-12/">1,290 Days and the Abomination of Desolation in Daniel 11–12</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com">Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner</a>.</p>

<p>In this message, we move into the New Testament to explore one of the most important end-times passages in all of Scripture: Matthew 24 and the Olivet Discourse. Jesus’ teaching on the Mount of Olives is central to understanding biblical prophecy, the timing of the end of the age, and the events that lead up to His glorious return. This session highlights the significance of Daniel’s prophecy, especially Daniel chapter 9, and shows how Jesus directly connects Daniel’s words to the future.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com/the-abomination-of-desolation-in-the-olivet-discourse-matthew-24/">The Abomination of Desolation in the Olivet Discourse | Matthew 24</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com">Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner</a>.</p>

<p>In this in-depth teaching, Alan Kurschner lays a biblical foundation for understanding one of the most critical events in end-times prophecy: the abomination of desolation. Drawing from Daniel 8 and Daniel 9, this session explains why the abomination of desolation is not a side issue in prophecy, but a central event that anchors the timeline of the Antichrist, the Great Tribulation, and Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 24.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com/antichrist-the-desolator-is-coming-daniel-8-9/">Antichrist the Desolator Is Coming – Daniel 8–9</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com">Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner</a>.</p>

<p>In this teaching, we examine supersessionism (replacement theology) and its common claim that the Old Testament contains land promises for Israel, while the New Testament is mostly silent, implying those promises are canceled or absorbed into the Church or Christ.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com/israels-land-promise-jesus-didnt-absorb-a-map/">Israel’s Land Promise: Jesus Didn’t “Absorb” a Map</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com">Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner</a>.</p>

<p>Will the New Jerusalem Physically Land on Earth?</p> <p>In this episode of Bible Prophecy Answers, we tackle a key end-times question: Will the New Jerusalem actually descend and be set down on the earth—at the site of present-day Jerusalem? Walking through major prophetic passages in Isaiah, we explore how the Old Testament anticipates the radiant glory, worldwide gathering, and unique light source that closely parallels John’s New Jerusalem in Revelation.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com/new-jerusalem-in-isaiah-will-it-physically-land-on-earth/">New Jerusalem in Isaiah: Will It Physically Land on Earth?</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com">Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner</a>.</p>

<p>In this short teaching, we examine 2 Thessalonians 2:8 to show why the man of lawlessness (Antichrist) must be future. Paul says Jesus will destroy the lawless one at His parousia (Second Coming)—meaning the Antichrist is active on earth when Christ returns.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com/preterism-problem-ad-70-the-parousia-and-the-man-of-lawlessness/">Preterism Problem – AD 70, the Parousia, and the Man of Lawlessness</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com">Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner</a>.</p>

<p>Where Is the New Jerusalem Today? (Heavenly Jerusalem Explained)</p> <p>In this episode of our New Jerusalem / New Creation series, we tackle a question that Christians often wonder about but rarely explore in depth: Where is the New Jerusalem right now? Drawing from key passages in Hebrews, John, Galatians, Isaiah, Genesis, and Revelation, we build a biblical case that the New Jerusalem presently exists in heaven as a real, God-built city—awaiting the day it descends to the earth at Christ’s return.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com/where-is-the-new-jerusalem-today/">Where Is the New Jerusalem Today?</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com">Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner</a>.</p>

<p>What Is the Thessalonian Error in 2 Thessalonians?</p> <p>In this episode, we explain the “Thessalonian error”—the fear that believers are already in the Day of the Lord when, in fact, they are not. Walking through 2 Thessalonians 1–2, you’ll see how Paul comforts the Thessalonian church during persecution and corrects false teaching that the Day of the Lord’s judgment/wrath had already begun.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com/dont-fear-the-antichrist/">Don’t Fear the Antichrist</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com">Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner</a>.</p>

<p>In this teaching, Roger Best continues his overview of end time events and focuses on one key question: When does the rapture take place in the sequence of end-times prophecy? Rather than date-setting, he lays out a clear biblical timeline using foundational passages such as Daniel 9, Matthew 24 (the Olivet Discourse), 1–2 Thessalonians, and Revelation 6–16.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com/prewrath-rapture-an-overview-of-end-time-events-part-2-of-2-roger-best/">Prewrath Rapture: An Overview of End Time Events, Part 2 of 2 (Roger Best)</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com">Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner</a>.</p>

<p>In this opening session, Roger Best tackles a question many Christians are asking in a world marked by conflict, upheaval, and spiritual confusion: *What does the Bible actually teach about the end times?* With so many prophecy books and teachers offering competing timelines, this message aims to clear the fog by returning to Scripture and laying a foundation for understanding end-time events—especially the timing of the rapture in relation to tribulation and God’s wrath.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com/prewrath-rapture-an-overview-of-end-time-events-part-1-of-2-roger-best/">Prewrath Rapture: An Overview of End Time Events, Part 1 of 2 (Roger Best)</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com">Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner</a>.</p>

<p>In this episode of Bible Prophecy Answers, Dr. Alan Kurschner challenges a common imbalance in modern evangelism: many Christians boldly proclaim the cross (Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection) while rarely proclaiming the crown—the second coming of Christ, His kingdom reign, and His coming judgment. The result is a “truncated” message that often omits what the host calls the full gospel of the kingdom.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com/why-we-preach-the-cross-but-whisper-the-crown/">Why We Preach the Cross, but Whisper the Crown</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com">Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner</a>.</p>

<p>In this short but forceful episode of Bible Prophecy Answers, the host challenges Christians to rethink how they approach end times prophecy, the Antichrist, and the purpose of suffering in the Christian life. Using the vivid biblical image of David and Goliath, he urges believers to cultivate fearless faith for the moment when the eschatological Goliath—the Antichrist—arrives. The message is not merely academic or speculative. It is a call to spiritual readiness, faithful endurance, and uncompromising worship of Christ, even in the face of persecution and death.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com/be-a-david-when-the-end-times-goliath-arrives/">Be a David When the End Times Goliath Arrives</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com">Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner</a>.</p>

<p>This episode of Bible Prophecy Answers tackles a focused question many readers of Revelation ask: Why is there no temple inside the New Jerusalem? The host frames the discussion around Revelation 21:22, where John describes the climactic city of God’s future kingdom and makes a startling observation—he “saw no temple” in the city.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com/why-there-is-no-temple-inside-the-new-jerusalem-city/">Why There Is No Temple INSIDE the New Jerusalem City</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com">Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner</a>.</p>

<p>Ezekiel’s City and Revelation’s New Jerusalem</p> <p>One of the most significant theological claims highlighted is Willis’ argument that Ezekiel’s millennial city is the same city John describes in Revelation as the New Jerusalem. The host calls this identification crucial, because it strongly affects the timing of the city’s descent and its role in the millennium. He mentions he devoted an entire previous episode to defending this connection and intends to continue expanding the argument.</p> <p>The post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com/new-creation-premillennialism/">New Creation Premillennialism</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.alankurschner.com">Bible Prophecy Answers with Alan Kurschner</a>.</p>
