Good Friday + Easter Sunday: It Doesn't Add Up!

March-April 2023

Have you ever considered how much the Easter holiday just doesn’t add up? Start with the timing: Jesus said He would be in the tomb three days and three nights. But do the math—a Good Friday crucifixion to a resurrection on Sunday morning is at most only one day and small parts of two others, plus two nights. Also, John’s Gospel tells us Jesus was already resurrected before sunrise, so we can’t count that part of a day. Does the Bible offer a solution? Yes, and when we understand it, everything adds up perfectly! But that’s not all that doesn’t add up about the Easter holiday. What do rabbits, colored eggs and sunrise religious services have to do with Jesus Christ’s resurrection? Discover the fascinating historical truth about all this and much more in this issue of Beyond Today.

The Biblical Identity of Britain’s Royal Family

January-February 2023

People all over the world have long been fascinated with Britain’s royal family.

But why? Is there a little-understood connection between the British monarchy and the Bible? Yes there is—and understanding it helps us understand the roles of nations in end-time Bible prophecy.
