Summary

Are we actually living in the last days? And what if most Christians have misunderstood the end times entirely? In this special episode of LIVE FREE, Pastor Josh Howerton sits down with John Bevere to unpack the Second Coming of Christ, the rapture, and the rise of global deception. From shocking biblical timelines to the possibility of a “strong delusion,” this conversation connects Scripture to what’s happening in the world right now. But this isn’t about fear or speculation, it’s about urgency. Because if Jesus is returning sooner than we think, it changes everything about how we live today. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why some believe we’re in the final generation before Christ’s return The real timeline of the rapture, tribulation, and Second Coming What a biblical “strong delusion” could look like in today’s world Why end-times teaching often leads to confusion—and how to get it right How the fear of the Lord produces lasting spiritual transformation The one mindset that will keep you ready when Christ returns Stand firm. Think biblically. Live free. John Bevere’s latest book, The King Is Coming, is now available. https://a.co/d/0iwqRoxx 🧢 Want a Live Free hat of your own?
