Dr. Chuck Missler, an internationally known business executive, outlines our current economic predicament and defensive steps you can take to lessen the impact of the impending economic crisis. As a Bible teacher for over 30 years with a ministry reaching over 40 countries, Chuck shares some key strategies to prepare yourself spiritually and practically.

There are many diverse anticipations concerning the coming world leader, commonly referred to as "The Antichrist". This study will explore the Biblical descriptions with the specific expectations of the globalists, Islam, the Vatican, Freemasonry, and others. Clearly, the Bible has much more to illuminate this issue far beyond the popular conceptions; and yet, the composite perspective will astonish most. Furthermore, is there a climactic cosmic deception being prepared that, if it were possible, "it would deceive the very elect?" Jesus commanded us, "Be not deceived." But, how?

Every major theistic religion in the world encourages its followers to "Love God" which is usually expressed through religious rituals. Christianity alone tells its followers that "God Loves them". This love is understood and enjoyed through a personal relationship with him. God "Love for us creates a Love for God which creates a Love for God" ways. What is love and where can we find it? If God is a loving god, why is there suffering in the world? Why does God love us?

For salvation, man must understand the purpose and power of the Bible. But how do we explain our faith? If we only rely on our personal experience to explain our faith, we are no different than any other religious mystic. Can the Bible be trusted or has it been corrupted over time? How do we defend the Bible as the inerrant Word of God? What does the Bible reveal about God and us?

This follows the wonderful success of the Weathering the Coming Storm series where Ron Matsen and Dr. Chuck Missler dealt with global, national, and personal issues impacting all of our lives today. Leadership for the End Times serves as the next step in equipping ourselves with the tools and insights we need to be a guiding light to a world coping in the last days' darkness of chaos and deceit.

Of all the end-time themes discussed in the Bible – such as global disasters (Mt 24), the rise of the global super-state, the identity of the Antichrist, the mark of the beast, and the Magog invasion (Ezek 38-39) – “deception and apostasy in the church” is listed more times than any other end-time “sign of the times.” Are we currently living in the Age of Apostasy? Ron Matsen explores the evidence and causes of apostasy and provides an antidote for apostasy in this timely study.

The rapid rise of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) has caused many in the world to wonder at its apocalyptic implications. We will examine this emerging problem with what I like to call the “Issachar Challenge”. When you consider the coalescences of current events in the former region of Assyria with Biblical precedents and prophecies it should not seem strange to see this region of the world once again at the center of the world’s prophetic stage. The question is, “What should we be doing during this time of great uncertainty?"

In 1 Corinthians chapter 12 the apostle Paul writes: “Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be ignorant.” Sadly, today many Christians are poorly equipped to understand what the Bible has to say about the Holy Spirit. Throughout the Old Testament we see the revealed power of God referred to as the “Spirit of God” (at creation, anointing prophets, etc.). Yet clearly the Holy Spirit is more than just the force of God, he is a person. In the New Testament Jesus refers to the Holy Spirit as the third person of the Triune God.

Satan often relies on deception through disinformation. Misinformation is defined an accidental untruth where disinformation is the intentional misrepresentation of the truth. Therefore, doctrines of demons are creeds that offer counterfeit truths. What are these "doctrines of demons" that the Bible warns us about? Is there "another Jesus" being accepted by many within the world today? Is there "another Spirit" working in the world today?
