Summary

Allie is joined by Mark Hitchcock, the senior pastor of Faith Bible Church in Edmond, Oklahoma, to discuss how modern events could be fulfilling the Biblical end times. Hitchcock correlates the formation of Israel and the Iran war with scriptural prophecies, while saying a peace treaty could usher in the Antichrist. However, Mark warns against trying to figure out who the Antichrist is, while he also believes the rapture will rescue believers before his appearance. Mark also has a special message for potential parents worried about the final judgment. In the end, there is no hope in this world beyond the coming of Christ.
