Weekend Bible Study with Jacob Prasch | Discernment or Discernment Ministry

In this teaching, Jacob Prasch addresses the widespread confusion surrounding discernment in the modern church, arguing that discernment is a universal Christian responsibility, not a specialized or standalone ministry. He explains that while Scripture affirms a spiritual gift of discerning spirits, biblical discernment itself comes from rightly handling God’s Word and sound doctrine. Prasch warns that without doctrinal grounding, believers become vulnerable to deception, emotionalism, false prophecy, and counterfeit spirituality that mixes truth with error. He emphasizes that Scripture—not feelings, visions, or speculation—is the standard by which spiritual claims must be judged.Prasch further critiques the rise of organizations and personalities whose entire focus is identifying error, contending that such “discernment ministries” often drift into imbalance, fear-mongering, conspiracy theories, or inconsistent alliances that undermine their credibility. Drawing on biblical examples from Jesus, the apostles, and Old Testament prophets, he argues that confronting false teaching is necessary but must exist alongside gospel preaching, church planting, missions, and pastoral care. The message concludes with a dual warning: believers must beware both of churches that refuse to exercise discernment and of movements that reduce Christianity to constant criticism, insisting that true biblical discernment always serves Christ’s mission rather than replacing it.This teaching was originally taught on RTN TV's "Word for the Weekend" on May 24, 2025 and can be found on RTN and Moriel's YouTube and ministry channels.

Friday with Jacob Prasch | Understanding The Four Horsemen

In this teaching, Jacob Prasch offers a detailed exposition of Revelation 6 and the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, interpreting them through the lens of Old Testament prophecy—especially Zechariah 1 & 6, Job 1, Jeremiah 14, and Ezekiel 14—and Jesus’ teaching in the Olivet Discourse (Matthew 24). He explains how the visions in Zechariah historically applied to the end of the Babylonian captivity while simultaneously prefiguring the end-times judgments described in Revelation. Prasch emphasizes the importance of recognizing literary structure, original languages, and prophetic recapitulation, showing how Revelation retells earlier prophetic patterns with greater finality.The message centers on the correct order of the horsemen, arguing that the white horse (Antichrist) must appear first, bringing a false peace—particularly connected to Israel—before war, famine, and death follow. Drawing from 2 Thessalonians 2, Matthew 24, and Revelation 19, Prasch challenges common end-times assumptions, warns against deception and premature claims that prophecy is already fulfilled, and urges believers to discern current global trends without confusing precursors with fulfillment. The teaching concludes with a sober reminder that present events may be setting the stage, but Scripture provides clear markers believers must watch for as the return of Christ approaches.

Jacob's Midweek Bible Study | Jeremiah | Part 26

Jacob Prasch opens with prayer and then teaches from Jeremiah 18’s “potter and clay” image to argue that God’s sovereignty is never arbitrary: judgment comes in response to unrepentant sin after God calls people to turn back, and in Jeremiah the immediate context concerns nations (Judah/Israel) rather than individuals. From there he critiques Calvinism for, in his view, misreading Romans 9 by detaching it from the Old Testament context (Isaiah, Jeremiah) and from the “two nations in your womb” framing of Jacob/Esau, insisting election is corporate and tied to Israel’s ongoing place in God’s purposes (Romans 9–11) rather than a deterministic decree sending individuals to heaven or hell. He also polemicizes against replacement theology and modern church accommodation of homosexuality, and then reinforces the warning by moving to Jeremiah 19 and the Valley of Hinnom/Gehenna—linking Judah’s idolatry and child sacrifice to impending Babylonian judgment and using the geography as an admonition that persistent rebellion leads to irrevocable destruction, while God’s desire remains repentance and mercy.

Bible Study with Sandy | Lessons in Forgiveness - Who Must I Forgive

Sandy frames the lesson around “Who must I forgive?” arguing that Christians must forgive repentant believers within the church as well as enemies and persecutors, because unforgiveness gives Satan strategic leverage; drawing on passages like 2 Corinthians 2, Colossians 3:13, Ephesians 4:32, and Galatians 6, he stresses forgiveness as release and restoration while distinguishing it from immediate reinstatement to leadership, which requires time, observation, and discipleship. He portrays unforgiveness as a foothold that fuels secondary sins (anger, slander, malice, revenge), and uses Joseph as a model of genuine forgiveness paired with prudent testing of repentance and trustworthiness. The teaching then expands forgiveness outward—love enemies, pray for persecutors (Matthew 5)—with vivid reconciliation stories to show forgiveness as practical obedience that frees believers to love and witness. A related point follows: while we can forgive personal offenses, only God can forgive sins in the justificatory sense, especially sins “against God” like false prophecy/teaching; therefore believers should forgive such offenders in their hearts to speak truth in love, but still publicly rebuke public deception, “mark and avoid” persistent false teachers using a range of texts, and restore only upon clear, demonstrated repentance.

Sunday Morning by Pastor Marco | The Book of Amos | Judgement Begins in the House of God

Amos 7 turns the spotlight fully inward: God measures His own people, not the pagans first. Pastor Marco explains why judgment begins in the house of God and how spiritual leadership, worship, and public religion can become corrupted while still claiming God’s name. As Amos faces resistance for telling the truth, this chapter exposes the ongoing conflict between faithful preaching and a culture that demands comforting lies. The message is both warning and mercy—God confronts His people because He is holy, and because repentance is still possible while the warning is still being spoken.

Weekend Bible Study with Jacob Prasch | A Consistent Credo

The Word That Endures Forever: Creeds, Canon, and the Test of Doctrinal Consistency In this foundational teaching, Jacob Prasch examines the nature of biblical Christianity by contrasting the unchanging authority of Scripture with the evolving doctrines of religion. Beginning with the early creeds—the Apostles’ Creed and the Nicene Creed—he explains how the “line of faith” preserved essential Christian truth before the New Testament canon was fully written and recognized. From there, the message traces a consistent biblical warning against adding to or subtracting from God’s Word, drawing on Deuteronomy, Proverbs, Isaiah, the Gospels, the Epistles, and Revelation. Prasch argues that while Scripture remains coherent and self-consistent, false expressions of Judaism, Roman Catholicism, Eastern Orthodoxy, Islam, Mormonism, Jehovah’s Witnesses, and modern ecumenical and emergent movements are marked by progressive doctrinal invention and internal contradiction. By documenting historical developments, shifting dogmas, and extra-biblical authorities, the teaching exposes religion as man’s attempt to reach God, in contrast to the gospel—God’s unchanging revelation reaching fallen humanity. The message concludes with a clear test of truth: what is from God remains consistent, but what adds to His Word will inevitably prove unstable, contradictory, and false. This teaching was originally taught on RTN TV's "Word for the Weekend" on July 6, 2024 and can be found on RTN and Moriel's YouTube and ministry channels. Word for the Weekend streams live every Saturday. See RTNTV.org for more information.

Friday with Jacob Prasch | The Antichrist and 666

In this uncompromising teaching, Jacob Prasch expounds Revelation 13 and the doctrine of Antichrist by tracing its biblical patterns across both Testaments, exposing how deception precedes domination. He explains that before the mark, the image, or 666, Antichrist first comes as a counterfeit savior—working signs and wonders, promoting a false humanitarianism, and advancing a social gospel that sidelines repentance and the cross. Drawing parallels with Judas Iscariot as the “son of perdition,” Prasch shows how Antichrist infiltrates from within, masquerading as compassion while pursuing power, money, and control. He then follows the repeated biblical appearance of 666 through Solomon, commerce, gold, and global trade—especially its connection to Tarshish, which he presents as a prophetic symbol of economic alliance, compromise, and rebellion against God’s will. Applying these patterns to modern ecumenism, celebrity Christianity, unbiblical worship, and political-religious convergence, Prasch warns that the apostate church is already “setting sail.” His sobering conclusion is both a warning and a prayer: discern the signs, refuse ungodly alliances, stand on Scripture illuminated by the Holy Spirit—and ask God, in mercy, to sink the ship before it reaches Tarshish.

Jacob's Midweek Bible Study | Jeremiah | Part 25

Continuing in Jeremiah 17:19–27, this teaching addresses the meaning of the Sabbath—not as a legalistic observance, but as a prophetic sign pointing to Christ Himself. By examining Scripture from Jeremiah, the Gospels, Romans, Colossians, and Hebrews, the message explains why Sabbath-keeping was treated as a matter of life and death under the Old Covenant and how its true fulfillment is found in entering God’s rest through Jesus. Contrasting religious rule-keeping with genuine faith, this study exposes the emptiness of man-made religion, false visions, and legalism, and calls believers to rest fully in the completed work of Christ, who alone is the substance behind every shadow.

Midweek Special | Charles Douglas | The Beast

In this installment of his series, retired pastor Charles Douglas opens by briefly recommending RTN (a Christian TV/radio network offering music and Bible teaching) and then turns to the third theme: “The Beast to Come”—the Antichrist as the ultimate personification of false anointing under Satan. Framing the topic as a set of starter thoughts for personal or small-group study rather than an exhaustive end-times chart, he defines “antichrist” from John’s letters (as denial of Jesus’ true deity and true humanity), notes the recurring influence of deception (including a modern resurgence of gnostic-like distortions), and explains Satan’s work in terms of strategic (ultimate aim to exalt himself like the Most High) and tactical (ongoing preconditioning of minds through authoritative platforms—political, financial, and religious). Douglas then walks through key texts—especially Revelation 12–13, Daniel, and 2 Thessalonians—highlighting the beast rising from the turbulent “sea” of humanity and the dragon empowering him, the beast’s blasphemous self-exaltation and persecution of saints, and the coming certainty of Christ’s victory as King of kings. He also introduces the “second beast” (the false prophet) as a religious deceiver who performs signs to enforce worship, briefly weighs interpretive options around the “mortal wound” and the “image” (including but not limited to technological possibilities), and repeatedly emphasizes a sobering theme of divine sovereignty—the beast is “allowed” authority for a limited time—alongside a pastoral warning to stay spiritually alert, sober-minded, and grounded in Scripture amid accelerating deception.

Bible Study with Sandy | Lessons in Forgiveness - How Much Must I Forgive?

How Much Must I ForgiveIs there a limit to forgiveness? How many times must a Christian forgive someone who continues to hurt them? Sandy Simpson addresses these difficult questions by examining Jesus’ teaching on limitless forgiveness and the dangers of keeping score. This lesson confronts the human desire for revenge and justice while pointing listeners to Christ’s example of mercy. Forgiveness, when practiced fully, dismantles bitterness before it hardens into a lifestyle of resentment.

Sunday Morning by Pastor Marco | The Book of Amos | Seek God and Live!!

Amos 5–6 — Seek God and Live!!What does God actually want from His people? In Amos 5–6, the answer is not more empty ceremony, but genuine repentance and renewed devotion: “Seek Me and live.” Pastor Marco walks through Amos’s urgent call to abandon false confidence, religious performance, and self-indulgent ease—and to pursue the Lord with integrity, justice, and righteousness. These chapters confront the danger of loving comfort more than truth, and warn against a spiritual life that looks “fine” externally while collapsing internally. The invitation stands: seek God truly, and live—because life is found in Him, not in prosperity, appearances, or national pride.

Weekend Bible Study with Jacob Prasch | Who Has the Power

He Changes the Times and Seasons: God’s Sovereignty Over History, Kings, and the Destiny of Israel In this wide-ranging exposition anchored in Daniel 2:21, Jacob Prasch unfolds a biblical theology of history, arguing that God—not human rulers, ideologies, or institutions—ultimately governs the rise and fall of nations. Tracing Scripture alongside modern history, Prasch explains how God has repeatedly used even wicked leaders and catastrophic events—such as the Holocaust, World War II, and global crises—to accomplish His redemptive purposes, particularly in the restoration and preservation of Israel. Drawing extensively from Daniel, Isaiah 44–45, Ezra, Chronicles, and Revelation, he presents Cyrus the Great as a major Old Testament type of Christ and a model for how God can raise up unlikely, even secular rulers to bless Israel and fulfill prophecy. The teaching also confronts apostasy within institutional religion, the politicization of public crises, and the growing inability of governments to understand the spiritual forces shaping world events. The message concludes with a call for discernment: true wisdom and understanding do not come from politicians or global bodies, but from God alone, who gives insight to His people as history moves inexorably toward the return of Jesus Christ and the establishment of His everlasting kingdom. This teaching was originally taught on RTN TV's "Word for the Weekend" on April 5, 2025 and can be found on RTN and Moriel's YouTube and ministry channels.

Friday with Jacob Prasch | The Rapture - Don't Divide!

This teaching lays a foundational warning against building doctrine on opinion, extrapolation, or tradition rather than clear biblical exegesis, repeatedly emphasizing “text, context, and original meaning.” Using the pre-tribulation rapture as a primary case study, the speaker argues that its modern form originates in 19th-century theology, lacks explicit scriptural support, and has been admitted by its own leading proponents to be inferred rather than taught directly from the text. Jacob traces how such assumptions lead to deeper errors—dividing the body of Christ, redefining key biblical terms, and ultimately contradicting plainly stated Scripture, particularly in Revelation regarding perseverance, deception, and the fate of those who worship the Antichrist. The message concludes with a sober appeal: believers must refuse to nullify what Scripture explicitly teaches, must not divide over non-biblical opinions, and must return to disciplined, contextual interpretation if the church is to withstand deception in the last days.

Jacob's Midweek Bible Study | Jeremiah | Part 24

In this teaching from Jeremiah chapter 17, the focus turns to the spiritual anatomy of fallen humanity—particularly the deceitfulness of the human heart and the danger of trusting in man rather than in the Lord. Drawing connections between Jeremiah’s warnings before the Babylonian captivity, the ministry of Jesus, and the realities of the last days, this message explores idolatry, false religion, emotional deception, and misplaced confidence in human systems, wealth, and power. Through biblical cross-references and historical examples, the teaching contrasts those who are cursed for trusting in flesh with those who are blessed for trusting in God alone, culminating in a call to recognize Christ as the fountain of living water and the only true refuge in a time of judgment.

Midweek Special | Charles Douglas | The Fake and Genuine Annointing: Part 2

In this episode, retired pastor Charles Douglas continues his series by shifting from “fake anointing” to genuine anointing, first briefly recommending the RTN Christian broadcasting network as a free resource for sound doctrine, then settling into a structured, Bible-centered teaching meant to feel like “friends” studying together at home. Using a historical-grammatical foundation with selective typology, allegory, and symbolism, he traces genuine anointing through the Old Testament’s holy anointing oil (Exodus 30) and its fulfillment in Christ, emphasizing holiness, non-counterfeit spirituality, and the “flow from above” seen in Psalm 133. Douglas contrasts authentic anointing—Christ-centered, humble, scripturally tested, and life-giving to the gathered church—with counterfeit “high-profile” spirituality that exalts self, fuels fleshly desires, and deceives. He closes by urging believers to rely on the Spirit of truth, remain in what they heard “from the beginning” (1 John 2), and seek wisdom from above for stability in increasingly dark and unstable times, previewing a final installment on “the beast to come” as counterfeit anointing fully personified.

Bible Study with Sandy | Lessons in Forgiveness - Why Must I Forgive?

Why Must I ForgiveWhy does Scripture place such a strong emphasis on forgiveness? In this teaching, Sandy Simpson explores the theological and spiritual reasons forgiveness is mandatory for believers. He shows how forgiveness is inseparably connected to our own relationship with God, our prayer life, and our spiritual growth. Refusing to forgive doesn’t punish the offender—it imprisons the one holding the grudge. This lesson makes clear that forgiveness is not about fairness, but about obedience, healing, and alignment with God’s will.

Sunday Morning by Pastor Marco | The Book of Amos | Hear This!

Amos 4 — Hear This!In Amos 4, God’s voice cuts through noise, comfort, and denial: “Hear this!” Pastor Marco calls attention to the prophetic warning that outward religion cannot cover inward rebellion—and that God’s discipline is often meant to awaken, not merely punish. As Israel remains stubborn despite repeated mercies and warnings, the chapter becomes a mirror for any generation tempted to ignore God while enjoying God’s gifts. This teaching is a direct summons to listen, repent, and prepare to meet the Lord with humility—before hardened patterns become irreversible.

Weekend Bible Study with Jacob Prasch | The Iron and the Clay | Part 2

The Iron and the Clay (Part Two): Government, Principalities, and the Coming Clash Between Christ and Antichrist In this extended continuation of The Iron and the Clay, Jacob Prasch expounds Daniel 2 to address the biblical tension between submission to civil authority and obedience to God, showing how political power, religious systems, technology, and economics are all influenced by unseen spiritual principalities. Moving between Scripture (Acts 4, Romans 13, Daniel 10–12, Revelation 12–13) and contemporary events in Europe, Britain, Israel, and the West, the teaching argues that modern persecution of Christians, censorship, and moral inversion mirror the conditions of pagan Rome and foreshadow the final Antichrist system. Prasch traces how the “iron and clay” kingdom reflects a fractured Greco-Roman world struggling to hold together through authoritarian control, false religion, and counterfeit unity, while warning against deception in the church, triumphalist “kingdom now” theology, and false assurances of escape from tribulation. The message culminates in hope: though many battles will be lost, the war is already won—Christ, the stone cut without human hands, will crush every earthly kingdom and establish a reign that will never end. This teaching was originally taught on RTN TV's "Word for the Weekend" on February 22, 2025 and can be found on RTN and Moriel's YouTube and ministry channels.

Friday with Jacob Prasch | The End Times in Laodicea

Drawing extensively from Revelation 2–3, this teaching examines the seven churches as real historical congregations, recurring spiritual conditions present throughout church history, and a prophetic mirror especially relevant to the last days. Beginning with Christ’s warning to Laodicea, the speaker exposes how material affluence, consumerism, and “people’s opinions” have produced a lukewarm church that believes itself rich while remaining spiritually blind and naked. Moving church by church—from Ephesus’ loss of first love, Smyrna’s persecution, Pergamum’s compromise, Thyatira’s false sacrifice, Sardis’ dead orthodoxy, and Philadelphia’s faithful mission—the message traces how cultural shifts repeatedly force the church to choose between biblical recontextualization (changing the packaging, not the gospel) and theological redefinition (changing the gospel itself). Through historical examples ranging from Augustine and Aquinas to Wesley, the Jesus Movement, and modern evangelical trends, the teaching issues a sober warning: when the church replaces repentance, discipleship, and truth with programs, experiences, tolerance, or prosperity, it risks becoming Laodicea—called not to innovate, but to repent, open the door to Christ, and recover true spiritual sight.

Jacob's Midweek Bible Study | Jeremiah | Part 23

In this extended exposition of Jeremiah 16, Jacob Prasch interprets the prophet’s warnings as both an immediate judgment on Judah and a far-reaching foreshadowing of the last days, closely linking the chapter to Jesus’ Olivet Discourse and the book of Revelation. Prasch explains why God commands Jeremiah not to marry, mourn, or celebrate—signs that divine compassion has been withdrawn from a society that has crossed a moral point of no return. He traces recurring biblical patterns of famine, judgment, false prophecy, and idolatry from the Babylonian captivity to 70 AD, and ultimately to the rise of Babylon the Great, emphasizing that understanding prophecy requires understanding history. Addressing modern apostasy, false religion, moral collapse, and the abandonment of biblical truth, he contrasts counterfeit “words” from false prophets with the true Word of God. Yet amid judgment, Prasch highlights God’s enduring covenant promises to Israel, the future regathering of the Jewish people, and the certainty that the nations will one day recognize the futility of their idols. The teaching closes with a sober reminder: when God makes Himself known in judgment, every false system will be exposed, and all will know that Yahweh alone is Lord.

Midweek Special | Charles Douglas | The Fake and Genuine Annointing: Part 1

In this teaching, Charles Douglas, an 84-year-old retired pastor with decades of ministry experience, introduces a three-part series focused on discerning fake versus genuine anointing in an age saturated with voices, prophecies, and spiritual claims amplified by modern technology. Drawing carefully from Scripture—including 1 Corinthians 14, 2 Peter, Acts 8, Exodus, and Revelation—he warns against fabricated prophecies, sensationalism, and counterfeit spiritual power that exploit believers, dull discernment, and prepare the ground for greater end-time deception. With pastoral clarity and sober urgency, Douglas calls listeners to exercise sanctified common sense, test all claims against God’s Word, and maintain a balanced faith rooted in both heart and mind, laying the foundation for understanding genuine anointing and, ultimately, the rise of the false prophet and the beast to come.

How Must I ForgiveWhat does biblical forgiveness actually look like in practice? In this lesson, Sandy Simpson explains how Christians are called to forgive—not emotionally, conditionally, or superficially—but biblically. Forgiveness is an act of obedience grounded in Christ’s sacrifice, not a feeling or a denial of wrongdoing. This teaching clarifies the difference between forgiving and excusing sin, forgiving and enabling, and forgiving and forgetting. Listeners are challenged to follow Christ’s model of forgiveness in truth, humility, and love.

Sunday Morning by Pastor Marco | The Book of Amos | Crime and Punishment

Amos 2:6–3 — Crime and PunishmentThe spiral tightens, and Amos now lands on Israel’s sins—crimes not merely “out there” among the nations, but inside the covenant community itself. Pastor Marco unpacks how God holds His own people to account for corruption, exploitation, and hypocritical religion, showing that privilege never cancels responsibility. In these chapters, God exposes the way injustice, greed, and spiritual compromise become systemic—and why judgment is not random but measured, moral, and deserved. This message confronts the false security of religious language without repentance, calling God’s people to sober self-examination, accountability, and a return to covenant faithfulness.

Weekend Bible Study with Jacob Prasch | The Iron and the Clay | Part 1

Daniel’s Iron and Clay: Government, Principalities, and God’s Hand in the Rise and Fall of Nations (Part One) In this first part of The Iron and the Clay, the teaching opens in Book of Daniel 2:21, unfolding a sweeping biblical framework for understanding history, politics, and prophecy through the lens of divine sovereignty. Drawing from Daniel, Zechariah, Job, Revelation, and modern history, the message explains how earthly events—wars, elections, governments, and global upheavals—are reflections of spiritual conflicts in the heavenlies involving angelic and demonic principalities. The study identifies three forces God uses to restrain evil: human government, the convicting work of the Holy Spirit, and the church functioning as salt and light—and warns what happens when all three fail. Tracing examples from ancient Israel to World War I, World War II, the Holocaust, the rebirth of Israel, and contemporary geopolitics, the teaching argues that God allows even evil rulers to rise in order to accomplish prophetic purposes, calling believers not to political obsession but to spiritual discernment, intercessory prayer, and biblical wisdom in understanding the times. This teaching was originally taught on RTN TV's "Word for the Weekend" on February 15, 2025 and can be found on RTN and Moriel's YouTube and ministry channels.

Friday with Jacob Prasch | The Death of Reason

Using his testimony as a starting point, this message tackles Jacob's assigned theme: how prophecy and evangelism are inseparably linked. Anchoring the talk in Isaiah 1:18 (“Come now, let us reason together”), he argues that the gospel is not a blind leap but intellectually credible and historically defensible, contrasting it with what he portrays as religion’s subjective claims and man-made attempts to reach God. Drawing from his own background in 1960s counterculture, leftist politics, science-minded skepticism, and occult involvement, he describes how the “Jesus Freak” revival confronted him with evidence he could not dismiss—especially fulfilled messianic prophecies and external historical attestations that forced him from trying to disprove Christianity to accepting Christ. He critiques alternative religious systems and Christian counterfeits, then pivots to end-times themes—Israel’s centrality, geopolitical convergence, cultural decay, and deception within the church—to emphasize urgency: personal mortality and global instability are “time bombs,” but the “blessed hope” is available now through repentance and faith in Jesus the Messiah.

Jacob's Midweek Bible Study | Jeremiah | Part 22

Continuing his exposition of Jeremiah 15, Jacob Prasch presents a sobering theology of judgment, repentance, and perseverance for believers living amid apostasy. He explains that when a nation—or a church—passes a moral point of no return, God may cease calling it to repentance and instead give it over to judgment, even while still calling individuals to faithfulness. Tracing the chapter’s imagery of fourfold doom and its fulfillment across Scripture, Prasch connects Jeremiah’s anguish to Christ’s own suffering, showing how the prophet typifies the rejected Messiah and, by extension, the faithful remnant in every age. He emphasizes the necessity of “eating the Word”—allowing Scripture to be fully internalized—so that it becomes both a joy and a burden, sweet in the mouth yet bitter in the stomach. Addressing discouragement, isolation, and righteous indignation, Prasch underscores God’s promise to preserve those who refuse compromise: believers must extract what is precious from what is worthless, resist conformity to apostasy, and trust that even in persecution God will ultimately redeem them from the hand of the violent and the wicked.

Bible Study with Sandy | Lessons in Forgiveness - Unforgiveness

This week Sandy begins a multi-week series on forgiveness. In this opening lesson, Sandy Simpson exposes the spiritual, emotional, and even physical damage caused by unforgiveness. Drawing from Scripture, personal testimony, and real-world examples, he shows how bitterness becomes a root that grows into anger, violence, self-destruction, and spiritual bondage. Unforgiveness is not a harmless attitude—it gives the enemy a foothold and robs believers of healing, peace, and intimacy with Christ. This teaching lays the groundwork for understanding why forgiveness is not optional for Christians, but essential for spiritual health and freedom.

Sunday Morning by Pastor Marco | The Book of Amos | A Man from Tekoa

This week Pastor Marco begins a 7-week study in the Book of Amos. Pastor Marco Quintana introduces the Book of Amos and the prophet behind it—an unlikely messenger from Tekoa, a shepherd and tender of sycamore trees, sent to confront a prosperous but spiritually rotten nation. In this opening teaching, we explore why “majoring on the minors” reveals the righteousness and holiness of God, how prosperity can breed complacency and injustice, and why God’s judgment begins with the nations before closing in on His own people. Amos is not a comfortable book—but it is a necessary one, exposing the seriousness of sin and the mercy of God who warns before He judges. Ultimately, Amos drives us to the hope of the gospel: the Savior who bore God’s wrath so sinners can be forgiven and made right. The plan for 2026, for your future listening enjoyment, is to begin the new year with Amos, followed by Haggai, then Habakkuk. We'll begin April with an Easter message and then continue through the year in the Book of Mark. That will get us all the way to the second week of December where we'll finish 2026 with a series of holiday and Christmas messages from Pastor Marco. As with all plans, however, these may change, because our future is not up to us. Thank you for being a Moriel podcast listener, God bless!

Weekend Bible Study with Jacob Prasch | A Very Serious Call For Prayer

SubtitleGod Who Removes Kings: Israel, the Nations, and a Desperate Call to Prayer In this urgent and uncompromising message, the speaker issues a desperate call to prayer grounded in Daniel 2:21—that God alone removes kings and establishes rulers according to His sovereign purposes. Tracing biblical prophecy, church history, and modern geopolitics, the teaching argues that current international actions against Israel and the silence surrounding the persecution of Christians signal a dangerous alignment against the God of Israel Himself. Drawing from Scripture, historical examples (including Britain, Europe, and the rise and fall of empires), and present-day events at the United Nations, the message warns that nations which oppose God’s covenant purposes risk divine judgment. The teaching concludes with an impassioned plea for repentance, intercession, and divine intervention—that God would remove wicked leadership, spare entire nations from judgment, and establish righteous rulers before it is too late. This teaching was originally taught on RTN TV's "Word for the Weekend" on September 27, 2025 and can be found on RTN and Moriel's YouTube and ministry channels. Word for the Weekend streams live every Saturday. See RTNTV.org for more information

Friday with Jacob Prasch | Two Ends of the Loaf, Creation and New Creation

In this teaching, the speaker introduces Genesis (Beresheet) through a distinctly Jewish-Christian lens, arguing that the Bible is a unified, Christ-centered revelation in which Genesis, Proverbs 8, the Gospel of John, John’s Epistles, and Revelation form a deliberate theological structure—“like a loaf of bread, the same on both ends.” He explains how early Jewish believers understood Scripture typologically rather than as modern historiography, emphasizing historicity without modern historical genre, and shows how Jesus is present as God’s agent of creation and new creation throughout the Old and New Testaments. Drawing connections between creation and redemption—light and darkness, water and the Spirit, the tree of life, the fig tree, marriage, and the Trinity—he frames Genesis as the foundation for understanding salvation history, human identity, marriage, gender roles, deception, and spiritual warfare. The message also addresses creation and science, warning against both Darwinism and naïve creationism, insisting Genesis answers why God created rather than how, and concluding that all Scripture—from Genesis to Revelation—reveals God declaring the end from the beginning, calling believers to read Genesis not only to learn what happened, but to understand what is happening now and what is yet to come.

Jacob's Midweek Bible Study | Jeremiah | Part 21

In this intense and confrontational teaching from Jeremiah 14:13 through 15, Jacob Prasch interprets contemporary political violence, cultural collapse, and ecclesiastical apostasy through the lens of biblical judgment. Beginning with the assassination of a prominent Christian voice and the moral chaos surrounding it, Prasch frames current events as evidence of a society—and a church—being “given over” by God, echoing the divine prohibition given to Jeremiah not to pray any longer for a people who have chosen deception over truth. He exposes false prophets and corrupt clergy as modern counterparts to Jeremiah’s day, explaining how counterfeit visions, occult divination, and self-deceived minds continue to mislead nations and believers alike. Moving verse by verse, he traces God’s fourfold judgment—the sword, the dogs, the predatory birds, and the beasts—as prophetic patterns culminating ultimately in Babylon the Great, warning that mainstream Christendom itself is destined for captivity because it has abandoned repentance, holiness, and biblical authority. While emphasizing that God will preserve faithful individuals for His purposes, Prasch delivers a sobering conclusion: judgment begins in the house of God, and what happened in Jeremiah’s generation is now unfolding again, inexorably, in our own.

Sunday Morning by Pastor Marco | Prophecy Update: The Rise of AI

Pastor Marco Quintana of the Community Church of Devore discusses the rise of AI. Although Pastor Marco gave this prophecy update on August 4, 2023, AI is even more prominent today. It is rapidly becoming a major force in our society taking over businesses, media, and even jobs to the point that we don't even know it's happening. Next year, in 2026, AI is certain to become bigger than it has ever been and will provide a greater view into the future of mankind than we have ever seen - for good and bad. Who knows, will AI usher in the antichrist and the return of Jesus, or is it just another passing fad?
