Pastor Jack challenges shallow, speculative approaches to end-times prophecy and calls believers to straight thinking about the Second Coming. Drawing from 1 Thessalonians 4-5 and 2 Peter 3, he teaches that while Jesus’ return is imminent and unpredictable, the church’s obedience, maturity, and spiritual authority in prayer and witness can hasten His coming-not through frenzied activity, but by growing into its calling to take dominion over the powers of darkness.
