First, I would like to state that I consider myself to be a charismatic Christian, which basically means I believe that the Bible is the inerrant Word of God and believe everything it says including Mark 16: 17-18 “And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well.” I do not pick and choose certain parts that line up with my beliefs and discard those

First of all, I want to say that I am pro pre-tribulation rapture. Pro pre-trib in the sense that I would greatly prefer to not endure any of the tribulation, however there is a certain passages in the Bible that cannot be ignored. The pre-tribulation rapture view is largely popular and preached by most churches and televangelists throughout this country, but does Scripture support it? I’m not going to present the pre-trib rapture view, as it is widely known and held by most rapture believing Christians. I am also not going to point out the problems with this view.

My name is Michael Fackerell. Born in 1965, I’ve been a Christian since 1984, and this blog is part of my christian-faith.com site, which began in 1997 and was established in its current domain in the year 2000.

In this blog I will be writing about things which are of interest to many people, Christians in particular. My goal here is to help my readers become more successful – primarily in eternal terms but also in terms of this life, however that may be possible.

At the time of writing I’m in India, but I travel in Australia, the U.A.E. and other nations.
