I admire Chuck Missler and would call myself a fan of his teaching. I attended a Chuck Missler seminar in July 2009, when he toured Australia, and found him fascinating and informative. So much so that, when his “Strategic Perspectives 4″ DVD was recently released, featuring speakers from a conference held in Oct 2009, I eagerly ordered a copy and looked forward to some new insights.

Sadly, like you, I found Dr. Missler to be just like you described him above. I was surprised at this and, to be honest, rather disappointed.
I am still very much an admirer of his teaching but this time I found some of the other speakers to be much more interesting and informative.
Grant Jeffrey (of whom I hadn’t heard prior to watching the DVD) spoke about global surveillance and the RFID chip -that was fascinating. I see you’ve done a post on the chip so I’m off to check it out.
Thank you for this website, it obviously takes a lot of time and effort.
God bless,

I admire Dave Hunt and Chuck Missler’s teaching or I never would have spent my time and money to go to the conference. There were four main guest speakers over three days. Hunt was sick and unprepared and in obviously pain and was almost intelligible, he spoke mostly on atheism. He really should not have even been there in his condition. I also have news, atheism is not Bible prophecy. Missler was rehashing old material and spending a third of his time teaching on why people should spend money to join his bible institute. A third person was the former pastor of that church and he did a good job but it was pretty generic teaching. There really was nothing noteworthy about Bible prophecy to report on there that I recall. The fourth speaker was flown in from Israel and was suppose to be some expert on the inner secrets of Israel because he once was in the military and now is a tour guide. The whole substance of his speech was that he had inner information that an attack on Iran would happen within six months. It never did.

Billions of people are being misdirected? Get a grip! a few thousand at most have ever read this post and there is no misdirection in it. Have you ever heard of constructive criticism or are Christians above that? The only person bickering here is you. Just because Finger Lakes is a small conference does not mean that people should get second rate presentations from first rate billings. Hopefully the 2009 Finger Lakes conference was better. I did not attend that conference so I cannot comment on it.

I really think that Missler and his trainees should take that four inch gaudy medal off of their neck when they go to Bible Prophecy conferences. Many of the people attending the conferences know as much about the Bible as those wearing these huge medals all day every day. Lets face it, the different color medals for public display is all about vanity and it makes those that wear them look like a bunch of Chuck Missler groupies. Even if I graduated from Dallas Theological Seminary I would not wear a four inch emblem displaying that around my neck at Bible conferences.

Thanks for your response.

So if that is true could that also mean that the Rapture would also be a reward just for the faithful at the Lord’s return and not a birthright for all Christians as some teach? I teach the escape from physical death is a reward for those pleasing God at His return and not a right. Examples being Enoch who pleased God so he did not see physical death and only one of the churches of Revelation being delivered from the time of trial that would come on all the earth. Not to mention in detail all the warnings to watch because we do not know when the Lord will return.

“Everything about John’s prophecy demands the existence of a global computer network tied into a global economy and overseen by a global governmental authority. Until this generation, it was impossible.”

I hope the Prince of Peace comes before all our good Bible teachers fall to pieces!
