We campaign against Human Exploitation: people taken, trafficked and sold every day. We are currently working in Cambodia, DRC, Uganda and Nigeria.
Giving children in poverty a hope and a future through Orphan Care, Healthcare, Children's Centres and Children's Churches.
Equipping and training leaders, church planters, missionaries and many others around the world to enable them to fulfil God's call on their lives.
We support missionaries and church planters, providing practical tools to share the gospel with those in unreached communities around the world.
We are a team of 4 with a vision to serve Elim in Estonia.
Our 'mission statement' has been echoed by Romans 1:11:
("My Estonian friends,) we long to see you so that we may impart to you some spiritual gift to make you strong - that is, that you and we may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith. We do not want you to be unaware, brothers (and sisters) that we planned many times to come to you in order that we might have a harvest among you."
As a team, our vision is to see a new move of the Holy Spirit in Estonia. We see our part in this as coming alongside established churches, struggling churches and new church plants in order to encourage them, support them, pray for them and generally help in any way we can. Sometimes this takes the form of preaching, teaching and worship and often listening to them talk about their hopes, dreams and problems.
EKNK Käina
A new church plant on the Island of Hiiumaa - Pastor Urmas Elmi and his wife Kristel. This is the main church we will be working with over the next 3 years.
EKNK Lihula Church (West Estonia)
We have an ongoing connection with Pastor Markko Põld and his wife Maret. We help to run a children's party/gospel events, we have also been involved in the Bread Church where food parcels are given to the needy by the church and a gospel message is presented - we bring a time of worship and a gospel presentation with an appeal for salvation.
EKNK Turba (West Estonia)
Pastor Sirje Meriküla leads a small church that meets in a flat in a block of flats. We try to support this work each time we visit. We bring a time of worship, a preach and often pray for most of the congregation after the service.
Churches in Tallinn (North Estonia)
Pastor Nikolai Rytkinen is the Bishop that oversees the churches in the North of Estonia. He is a Russian speaking Estonian minister who leads a Russian speaking church.
We are exploring the possibility of links between the Russian speaking church in Estonia with the church in Siberia that is linked with the Water's Edge Elim Pentecostal church we attend in Poole in the UK.
We hope that one day the EKNK church will plant a church or home group in the village of Lavassaare where we currently have flats we own and stay in on our visits. We have met with Christians living in the village who have been praying for many years for a work to start there
I grew up in a Christian home and knew the love and support of two brilliant parents. I gave my life to Jesus when I was 7 years old and from the age of 16 until 21 I drifted from my commitment to the Lord until I heard a Pastor preach about having one foot in the world and one foot in the church and I knew that described me exactly. I recommitted my life to Jesus at the age of 21 and at that time also met Dee, who was to become my wife 4 years later. Dee and I moved from Surrey to Poole in Dorset in 1990 where the Lord called me into leading worship at a local church and I have been leading worship ever since.
I visited Estonia in October of 2010 and knew quite quickly that God was doing something in the nation and in my heart for the people of Estonia. I encouraged my wife Dee to join me on the next visit to Estonia in the February of 2011 and the Lord moved on her heart too.
My areas of ministry have been worship, writing gospel songs, teaching, preaching and coming alongside people to encourage them, sometimes by just being there to listen to them over a cup of tea - that they would leave feeling lighter in their soul and spirit than when they arrived. Dee and I both have a great sense of humour and we often use that to lighten the atmosphere in order that love and compassion can have a better opening to be received.
Only the Lord knows what the future holds for Estonia and for us as Team Estonia but we go together, in unity with the Spirit of God, to show the love of the Father and to see souls saved.
I am originally from South London but moved to Poole in Dorset in January 1990 with my husband Mike and our daughter Lindsey (our son, Paul, arrived in the June of 1990, followed by Andy in June of 1994 and John in May of 1998). We are also blessed with a lovely son-in-law and 2 grandchildren (Jed and Emily). Mike and I met when I was 16 and he was 21 and we married 4 years later in 1984.
My heart and ministries lie in worship/singing, prophecy, encouraging others to see themselves as Christ sees them and sharing the gospel, especially creatively to children. I 'come alive' in the company of people and especially enjoy encouraging fellow believers to push through to be all that they can be, in and through Christ. Mike and I flow well together with the Holy Spirit when praying and often have pictures and words of encouragement the Father wants to give to those we are praying with. I have a vision to share the Word of God, especially to women.
I first went to Estonia following a trip my hubby made in 2010 and after being there almost 2 weeks and not thinking I was called to Estonia the Holy Spirit 'zapped' me with a measure of the love the Father has for Estonia and I wept. The Lord spoke to me later that He wanted to heal a land that had been consistently 'raped' - taken by force and abused. When I feel just a portion of God's heart for Estonia I can say confidently it is where we are supposed to be. Whatever the Father wants to bring, to say or to do I will turn up and let God move.
I gave my life to Jesus when I was 13, during an evening youth group. I have two grown up daughters who still live at home with me. I live in Poole, close to the other members of Team Estonia and I am blessed to be part of a wonderfully supportive Elim church called the Water's Edge Church.
God has proved His faithfulness and love through the interesting journey my life has taken and His promise of restoration in my life is part and parcel of my testimony. I have a heart to love and encourage others, a love for the Word and sharing the Word, I enjoy praying for people and have a desire to see souls saved and that those new converts are nurtured and grow in their relationship and faith out-workings.
The Lord has put a deep love for Estonia in my heart and I long to see the outworking of God's plans and purposes for Team Estonia and for the people of Estonia - to love God and be loved by God in all its fullness.
I am originally from North Wales, where I met and married my wife, Lynne in 1990. We have two grown-up children, Leon and Adele and a three-year-old granddaughter, Amelia Rose. Like the rest of the team, I live in Poole, Dorset and attend the same church (Water's Edge Elim).
My first experience of Estonia was in 2013 when I drove from England with a family from our church. I was impressed with the beauty of the countryside, covered with ice and snow. Even the sea was frozen! I was also impressed with the people, who were so hungry and open to God, despite having to cope with heavy burdens. I played keyboard in worship services and had opportunities to pray with people. I also took part in a prayer walk, sounding the shofar in the village where we were staying. I felt after returning home that I had "unfinished business" there, and prayed about when I might make another visit.
I visited again in April of last year. This time, I felt the Lord was calling me to bring the message of the Father heart of God to Estonia. This message has been foundational for me in ministry at home, but this was a specific assignment, for a people who have suffered much from fatherlessness. In January of this year, I visited as part of Team Estonia, and the Lord revisited the call to bring the message of the Father's heart. I believe we as a team are called to bring hope and healing in a land where people have deep hurts and there is much spiritual darkness.

THE TRIUMPHANT RETURN AND KINGDOM OF GOD #2 What Did the Early Church Believe about the Second Coming? Some who reject the futurist, literal interpretation of Bible prophecy as taught by those of us who hold to the apostolic and premillennial doctrine of Christ's Second Coming often claim that our beliefs were basically unknown to the early Church. In this chapter I hope to demonstrate to any fair-minded inquirer that the historical evidence is overwhelming that the apostolic Church generally adopted a literal and futurist interpretation of the prophecies, especially regarding the Second Advent and the premillennial return of Christ to set up His kingdom. We will examine the specific prophetic beliefs that are commonly held by modern prophecy teachers such as Hal Lindsey, Tim LaHaye, John Walvoord, and myself. Examples of these particular prophetic beliefs include acceptance of a literal and future Antichrist, False Prophet, Second Coming, the resumption of sacrifice in the rebuilt Temple in Jerusalem, and the establishment of the millennial kingdom of God by Christ at His coming. (They have the coming of the anti-christ false prophet [which are the same man - but they have it wrong on that point], Second Coming, millennium Kingdom, correct. The REST they have WRONG! - Keith Hunt) We will compare these modern prophetic views with quotations of the early Church theologians and teachers as documented by the authoritative collection of ancient manuscripts called the Ante-Nicene Fathers. (Ya, remember those "fathers" were in the large main, those who founded the Roman Catholic church - Keith Hunt) Years ago, I embarked on a systematic study of the writings of the early Christian theologians who taught prior to the Council of Nicea in 325. These informative writings were translated from Greek and Latin into English and assembled in a ten-volume set called the Ante-Nicene Fathers in Edinburgh, Scotland, in the 1890s. There is ample evidence that our modern views regarding the fulfillment of the prophecies are remarkably similar to those held by the Christians during the first three centuries following Christ. A later chapter in this book will examine the specific millennial kingdom beliefs of the early Church and will demonstrate conclusively that these early Church teachers almost universally taught the premillennial return of Christ. An examination of several key prophetic teachings of the apostolic church will provide powerful evidence that current prophecy beliefs are consistent with the earliest teachings of the apostles and the early Church. Should Prophecy Be Interpreted as Literal or Allegorical? One of the most fundamental issues facing those who consider the prophecies of the Bible is the question of the correct method of interpretation - literally or allegorically - as indicated in the previous chapter. However, one of the most significant considerations is to examine the question of the method of interpretation used by the Church Fathers, some of whom personally knew the disciples of Jesus. The quotations listed in this chapter provide compelling evidence that the primitive Church writers interpreted the prophecies in a quite literal manner. Several writers from the first few centuries specifically addressed the issue of how we should interpret the prophecies. As noted the second-century writer Irenaeus declared that the literal method was correct: "If, however, any shall endeavor to allegorize (prophecies) of this kind, they shall not be found consistent with themselves in all points, and shall be confuted by the teaching of the very expressions." Another second-century writer, Justin Martyr, also confirmed that we should expect those prophecies about the events in the last days to be fulfilled in the same manner as those predictions fulfilled in the past. Justin wrote, "Since, then, we prove that all things which have already happened had been predicted by the prophets before they came to pass, we must necessarily believe also that those things which are in like manner predicted, but are yet to come to pass, shall certainly happen. For as the things which have already taken place came to pass when foretold, and even though unknown, so shall the things that remain, even though they be unknown and disbelieved, yet come to pass." The Early Church's Prophetic Beliefs Virtually all serious scholars of Church history, regardless of their personal views regarding the Millennium, acknowledge that the early apostolic Church believed in an imminent Second Coming. For example: Professor Richard Rothe states: "The apostles unanimously expected the return of Christ, to enter upon this Kingdom (Chiliastic) on earth." Professor James Donaldson, the respected editor of the Ante-Nicene Library, in his "History of Catholic Doctrine and Literature," wrote about the belief of Justin Martyr in support of the premillennial doctrine: "The opinion just adduced is one in which the whole Church shared. All expected Christ to appear on earth, to raise His saints, to grant them the possession of the earth, and to bless them with uninterrupted happiness." Philip Schaff declared in his "History of the Apostolic Church": "The expectation of the speedy return of Christ in glory, as probably one of Paul's favorite themes; that he exhorts the Thessalonians 'to be always ready to meet the Lord, who shall come unexpectedly, like a thief in the night, and warns them, for this very reason, among other errors, against presuming to calculate the day and hour of His appearing." The French historian Professor Joseph Renan (1823-1892) stated, "The two Syriac words Maran-atha (the Lord is about to come) became the watchword of the Christians among themselves; the short, animated expression, which they passed from one to another to encourage themselves in their hoping." After surveying the overwhelming evidence that the premillennial doctrine was strongly held by all of the key leaders of the early Church, Karl A. Auberlen wrote that in his view, Jesus, the Prophets, and the Apostles were all "Chiliasts" [premillennial]. The anti-millennial scholar JohannA.W.Neander (1789-1850) admitted in his history of the primitive Church that the apostles were not looking for the immediate conversion of the world but for the speedy return of Christ. He wrote, "Every unprejudiced reader of the New Testament cannot fail to perceive that such an expectation filled the souls of the apostles." Neander wrote about how this expectation influenced their concept regarding the purpose of the church. "It was not the idea of a renovated time that Christianity first attempted to realize, but everything appeared only as a point of transition to a new, heavenly, eternal order of things which would commence at the Second Advent." The Last Days The first issue is the question regarding the time when the prophecies will be fulfilled - immediately in A.D.70 or in the final "last days" that include Armageddon and the ushering in of the promised millennial rule. Irenaeus (A.D.120-202), who died as a martyr to his faith, wrote "Against Heresies," one of the most important prophetic writings of the primitive Church. Irenaeus was a disciple of Polycarp (A.D.69-155), who was personally taught by the apostle John. Therefore, he knew that John's prophecies in Revelation were not fulfilled decades earlier during the destruction of Jerusalem in A.D.70. Irenaeus writes: "In a still clearer light has John, in the Apocalypse, indicated to the Lord's disciples what shall happen in the last times, and concerning the ten kings who shall then arise, among whom the empire [Rome] which now rules (the earth) shall be partitioned. ... It is manifest, therefore that of these (potentates), he who is to come shall slay three, and subject the remainder to his power, and that he shall be himself the eighth among them. And they shall lay Babylon waste, and burn her with fire, and shall give their kingdom to the beast, and put the Church to flight. After that, they shall be destroyed by the coming of the Lord." Irenaeus obviously expected the fulfillment of this prophecy to occur at some point in the future, although he knew the Roman army had destroyed the city of Jerusalem eighty-five years before he wrote his book " Against Heresies." He also understood that the apostle John taught about a final future apostasy of the Church that would lead to its prophetic and symbolic designation as "Mystery Babylon" and the ultimate destruction of this false church by the Antichrist's tenfold kingdom at the midpoint of the seven-year Tribulation (Revelation 17:16-18). (Oh, did you notice that HUGE leap Jeffrey did? There is NOTHING in the quote from Irenaeus as to what Jeffrey claims he is saying. Irenaeus sticks with no more than what John wrote on Revelation. The beast man will lead in ruling people and subjecting them to his power. But finally he and his will turn on Babylon and destroy Babylon Mystery Religion. The church will be put to flight; but he and his will be destroyed by the coming of Christ. All of THAT is in the book of Revelation, as Irenaeus knew, but all of THAT is vastly DIFFERENT than what Jeffrey tells you in his last paragraph. Read his last paragraph again, and read what he quoted from Irenaeus. The two do NOT say the same at all. This is the clever manipulating of your mind, by Jeffrey, IF you are not reading carefully. He's planting ideas in your mind, and making them out to be from way back people like Irenaeus. Very deceptively clever - Keith Hunt) Toward the end of the second century, the theologian Hippolytus (A.D.170-236) wrote about the fact that the prophecies all pointed to a final fulfillment during the "last days" during the final generation of this age: "These words then being thus presented, let us observe somewhat in detail what Daniel says in his visions. For in distinguishing the kingdoms that are to rise after these things, he showed also the coming of Antichrist in the last times, and the consummation of the whole world." It is significant that every one of the early Christian writers taught that the prophecies of Daniel, Revelation, and Matthew 24 would be fulfilled in the last days at the end of this age until the publications of Origen (A.D.185-254). The respected Church historian John Mosheim wrote, "The prevailing opinion that Christ was to come and reign a thousand years among men before the final dissolution of the world, had met with no opposition previous to the time of Origen." (I have no problem with those before Origen understanding the prophectic word of the Lord would be fulfilled literally and did include the coming of Christ in glory to set up the Kingdom of God on earth; the Bible teaches that fact very clearly - Keith Hunt) The Hope of the Imminent Second Coming The "Didache" (also known as the Testimony of the Twelve Apostles) is an important Church document from the first few years of the second century (approximately A.D.110) that gives us vital insights into beliefs that were dominant in the primitive Church. The following statement in an early Christian document, Didache 16:17, indicates the strongly held belief in the Second Coming: "Then shall the world see the Lord coming upon the clouds of heaven." A primitive Christian manuscript known as "The Reliques of the Elders" was fortunately copied and preserved in the writings of Irenaeus. This valuable document preserves powerful evidence of the widespread popularity of the doctrine of the return of Christ in the primitive Church. The manuscript declares, "Afterwards he chanted the psalm of confession, waiting for the coming of the Lord, who washes and cleanses the man who had been bound in sin ... and was speaking his three thousand parables on the coming of the Lord, and his five thousand songs, by way of hymn to God." This remarkable statement indicates that there were thousands of statements or parables related to "the coming of the Lord" that were known during the time of the post-apostolic Church. Another document from the primitive Church encourages all Christians to imitate those who sacrificed everything to their faith in Christ and went about "preaching the coming of Christ." Clement of Rome, an important Church leader who is reported to have become an early bishop of Rome, wrote an epistle to the Church at Corinth in which he encouraged the believers to follow the example of those who first taught the coming of Christ. Clement wrote: "Let us be imitators also of them which went about in goat skins and sheepskins, preaching the coming of Christ." The brilliant Church historian Hippolytus (A.D.200) wrote about the Christian belief in the two advents of Christ: For through the Scriptures we are instructed in two advents of the Christ and Saviour. And the first after the flesh was in humiliation, because He was manifested in lowly estate. So then His second advent is declared to be in glory; for He comes from heaven with power, and angels, and the glory of His Father. His first advent had John the Baptist as its forerunner; and His second, in which He is to come in glory, will exhibit Enoch, and Elias, and John the Divine. (Well old Hippolytus had the coming of Christ, in advent one and advent two, correct, but the fellows he says will be with Him, is correct, if you understand the truth of the saints being resurrected at the coming of Christ in glory - Keith Hunt) The British historian Edward Gibbon wrote in his book "The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire" about the universal belief of the early Church in the doctrine of the literal and imminent return of Christ. It was universally believed that the end of the world, and the kingdom of heaven, were at hand. The near approach of this wonderful event had been predicted by the apostles; the tradition of it was preserved by their earliest disciples, and those who understood in their literal sense the discourses of Christ himself were obliged to expect the second and glorious coming of the Son of Man in the clouds, before that generation was totally extinguished which had beheld his humble condition upon earth. While Gibbon acknowledged the historical truth that the first Christians longed for the speedy return of Christ, he is quite wrong in his conclusion that the primitive Church believed, or was obligated to believe, that the Bible's prophecies demanded that Christ would return in the generation that first heard His prophecies. We will examine the subject of the imminent Second Coming in depth in Chapter 10. However, in brief, the prophecies taught that Christ could come at any moment but they did not place any time limit on how long the Lord would tarry until He returned. In fact, many prophecies warned that some critics in the last days would deny His Second Advent because of the long delay in time. The apostle Peter warned about the danger of losing faith but instructed us that the reason for the apparent delay was God's compassion to sinners. "But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night" (2 Peter 3:8-10). (The idea and teaching that Christ could come at any second is FASLE! There are specific prophecies that MUST be fulfilled BEFORE Christ returns; we have the whole book of Revelation to state that fact. As the nations of the world will NOT repent and freely turn to God and His way of life, then the prophecies MUST come as God has stated. Hence Jesus cannot come at any second - Keith Hunt) The French theologian Jean Baptiste Massillon (1663-1742) acknowledged that "in the days of primitive Christianity it would have been deemed a kind of apostasy not to sigh for the return of the Lord." However, the abandonment of the foundational doctrines of the Word of God together with the continued growth of apostasy within the ranks of Christian pastors has produced the lamentable situation where those "who love His appearing" and powerfully teach the scriptural doctrine of the soon return of Christ and His millennial kingdom are often criticized as "prophecy speculators" and considered to be eccentric in their teaching. Tragically, many who lead in the Church today consider those who state "Even so, come Lord Jesus" to be on the theological fringe and unbalanced when they teach the historic doctrine of the return of Christ. This rejection of the biblical prophecies regarding the Second Coming and the kingdom of God is clearly a fulfillment of the New Testament prophecies of the last days, in which the apostle Peter warned "there shall come ... scoffers, walking after their own lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation" (2 Peter 3:3-4). The Antichrist The primitive Church was fascinated by the prophecies about the future world dictator known as the Antichrist and his horrific and bloody rule over Israel and the nations during the last days. One of the most interesting of the early Christian writers, Hippolytus (A.D.160-236), wrote that the Antichrist would arise from among the Jews to deceive them: "For in every respect that deceiver seeks to make himself appear like the Son of God. Christ is a lion, and Antichrist is a lion.... The Saviour was circumcised, and he in like manner will appear in circumcision ... he in like manner will gather together the dispersed people of the Hebrews.... Christ arose from among the Hebrews, and he will spring from among the Jews." (Hippolytus only got right that the anti-christ will make himself appear as if he is Christ. For the anti-christ is the false prophet of Revelation, the man of sin of 2 Thes. who will declare himself "God" on earth. In fact we have had MANY anti-christs over the centuries, for the leader of the largest "Christian" church does even now declare God is on earth through him. His members of his organization do indeed believe God is on earth through the leader of their church. What did Hippo boy think, that this anti-christ would expose his "penis" on world-wide TV to expose to the Jews he is circumcised? He will NOT gather together the dispersed Hebrews - he will kill and DISPERSE them! He will NOT come from the Jews. Hippo guy was out in the mud with the Hippos when he dreamed this theology up - Keith Hunt) Another key writer, Lactantius, wrote in A.D.313 that the Antichrist will imitate and seek to replace God in the worship of humanity in the last days. "Now this is he who is called Antichrist; but he shall falsely call himself Christ, and shall fight against the truth, and being overcome shall flee." Lactantius also wrote that Satan will attempt to set himself up as God in this final conflict. "But that king will not only be most disgraceful in himself, but he will also be a prophet of lies; and he will constitute and call himself God, and will order himself to be worshipped as the Son of God." (Now Lactantius stuck with the NT Scriptures and so he got it CORTRECT!! - Keith Hunt) Irenaeus wrote about the career of the Antichrist in relation to Christ's return. "For he [Antichrist] being endued [empowered] with all the power of the devil, shall come, not as a righteous king, nor as a legitimate king, [one] in subjection to God, but an impious, unjust, and lawless one; as an apostate, iniquitous and murderous; as a robber, concentrating in himself (all) satanic apostasy, and setting aside idols to persuade (men) that he himself is God, raising up himself as the only idol, having in himself the multifarious errors of the other idols." (Ah, yes Irenaeus knew the Scriptures also. Anti-christ will come as appearing as God, he will appear to be "Christian" but he will really be the false prophet of Revelation. He will have the power of Satan; he will really be against the way and laws of God, yet he will say he is from God, that God is in him - Keith Hunt) The False Prophet The Scriptures indicate that the False Prophet, the partner of the Antichrist, will perform supernatural acts to deceive people. (This is again where people like Jeffrey fall off the beam. The False Prophet IS the anti-christ, IS the man of sin of 2 Thessalonians. They are one and the same. It is the false prophet that has a "man beast" with him, a secular leader of the Roman/Babylon empire - Keith Hunt) Possibly he will falsely claim to be the prophet Elijah as foretold by Malachi 4:5. It is fascinating to note that Lactantius (A.D.260-330) confirmed this interpretation regarding the False Prophet in his book "Divine Institutes" in the third century: He will also be a prophet of lies; and he will constitute and call himself God, and will order himself to be worshipped as the Son of God; and power will be given him to do signs and wonders, by the sight of which he may entice men to adore him. He will command fire to come down from heaven, and the sun to stand and leave his course, and an image to speak; and these things shall be done at his word-by which miracles many even of the wise shall be enticed by him. Then he will attempt to destroy the temple of God, and persecute the righteous people; and there will be distress and tribulation such as there never has been from the beginning of the world . (Lactantius again stuck with the Scriptures and is correct, but he is speaking of the False Prophet, the Man of Sin, for THE anti-christ and false prophet are one the same - Keith Hunt) Another Christian writer, Victorinus, wrote a fascinating commentary on the Apocalypse in A.D.280. In it, he declared that the False Prophet will set up an image of the Antichrist in the rebuilt Temple in the Holy City. Victorinus wrote: "He shall cause also that a golden image of Antichrist shall be placed in the temple at Jerusalem." He also noted that the False Prophet will counterfeit the supernatural signs of the genuine prophet Elijah, who will minister as one of the two witnesses during the Tribulation. "And he shall make fire come down from heaven in the sight of men." Victorinus' reference to the satanic miracle of bringing fire down from heaven (Revelation 13:13-14) is virtually identical to the interpretation found in the writings of modern prophecy teachers. (Victorinus had missed the boat leaving the hot desert and was under sun-stoke in writing those words. He had just about nothing correct, except the false prophet could bring fire down from heaven, and that part is written for all to read in the book of Revelation. Everything else is Vic boy's fancy ideas - Keith Hunt) The Revival of the Roman Empire - A Ten-Nation Superstate Irenaeus clearly identifies the kingdom of the future Antichrist with the final revival of the Roman Empire, symbolized by the fourth beast of Daniel 7. He taught that the Antichrist will violently overthrow three of the ten kingdoms that will form a ten-nation superstate in the territory of the original Roman Empire during the last days. "In a still clearer light has John, in the Apocalypse, indicated to the Lord's disciples what shall happen in the last times, and concerning the ten kings who shall then arise, among whom the empire [Rome] which now rules (the earth) shall be partitioned.... It is manifest, therefore that of these (potentates), he who is to come shall slay three, and subject the remainder to his power, and that he shall be himself the eighth among them." (Irenaeus was getting some of the prophecy of Daniel out of order, and mixed up. He could not be expected to understand Daniel in any full way, because it was said to Daniel himself that his prophecy was closed and sealed up till the time of the end, when people would run to and fro and knowledge would be increased. Irenaeus was NOT living in that time. That time has only been here about 100 years - Keith Hunt) Lactantius also confirmed that the prophets foretold that ten nations would join a superstate confederacy in the last days. "Then civil discords will perpetually be sown; nor will there be any rest from deadly wars, until ten kings arise at the same time, who will divide the world, not to govern, but to consume it." (Well once more not hard to figure that much as Revelation tells us about ten kings who give their power to one king beast, and they obviously think they are mighty powerful, as they will try to fight Christ at his coming - Rev.17:12-14 - Keith Hunt) In his commentary on Revelation, Victorinus also wrote about the seven kings of the revived Roman Empire who survive after the first three of the original ten kings are destroyed by the Antichrist. "His seven heads were the seven kings of the Romans, of whom also is Antichrist, as we have said above. 'And ten horns.' He says that the ten kings in the latest times are the same as these, as we shall more fully set forth there." (Again, Vic boy was getting things mixed up from Daniel and Revelation, but he was right in putting it all within a Roman- Empire context. My in-depth study "The Beasts of Daniel and Revelation" is on this Website. It will dovetail Daniel and Revelation correctly for you - Keith Hunt) Daniel's Seventieth Week - The Seven Years of Tribulation and the Gap of Years (Now we come to probably the BIGGEST MISTAKE our fundamental Christian prophets make - Keith Hunt) Some critical writers have stated that the teaching about a gap, or "parenthesis," of many years occurring between the end of Daniel's sixty-ninth week (at the time of Israel's rejection of the Messiah) and the commencement of the final seventieth week, the last seven years of this age (the beginning of the seven-year Tribulation), is a new theory that was unknown before modern times. However, a careful examination of the prophetic writings during the first few centuries of the Church era reveals that a number of writers also understood that the critical events of the last days will be fulfilled during Daniel's seventieth week of seven years. (And that just means that others before today GOT IT ALL WRONG! - Keith Hunt) In his commentary on Daniel 9:24-27, Irenaeus refers to the prophesied seventieth "week" of seven years as the duration of the future Antichrist's tyranny: "And in the midst of the week, he says, the sacrifice and the libation shall be taken away, and the abomination of desolation (shall be brought) into the temple: even unto the consummation of the time shall the desolation be complete. Now three years and six months constitute the half-week." (Read that quote again friends! Does Irenaeus say anything about 7 or 3 years and 6 months, being at the very end of this age? If he did believe it, this quote sure does not state it - Keith Hunt) In another early Church commentary, Lactantius confirmed that Satan would supernaturally empower the Antichrist with evil power during the last half (three and one-half years) of Daniel's seventieth week: "Power will be given him to desolate the whole earth for forty-two months." (Just a minute now, where in this quote did Lac boy tell us this was the last half of Daniel's 70th week. Old Lacy boy is telling us exactly what is written in Revelation - 42 months. There is NOTHING in Revelation about 7 years or 84 months - Keith Hunt) The writer Hippolytus wrote a detailed commentary about the prophecies and noted the clear prophecy of Daniel about the final seven-year Tribulation: He intimated also of old in this Daniel. For he says, "I shall make a covenant of one week, and in the midst of the week my sacrifice and libation will be removed." For by one week he indicates the showing forth of the seven years which shall be in the last times. And the half of the week the two prophets, along with John, will take for the purpose of proclaiming to all the world the advent of Antichrist, that is to say, for a "thousand two hundred and sixty days clothed in sackcloth;" and they will work signs and wonders. (So old Hippo guy believed what most fundamenatl prophets teach. All that proves is that the false teaching of Daniel 9 has been around the block a number of times before, before it grew into a huge following like it has today - Keith Hunt) In another manuscript, Hippolytus wrote about Daniel's vision of the seventy weeks and clearly revealed his understanding that the final "week" of seven years (the Tribulation) will occur after a long gap of time from the ending of the sixty-ninth week, when Christ had first come. Hippolytus commented on Daniel's prophecy that the time between "the commandment to restore and build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks" (Daniel 9:25). Hippolytus wrote: "For when the threescore and two weeks are fulfilled, and Christ is come, and the Gospel is preached in every place, the times being then accomplished, there will remain only one week, the last, in which Elias will appear, and Enoch, and in the midst of it the abomination of desolation will be manifested, viz., Antichrist, announcing desolation to the world. And when he comes, the sacrifice and oblation will be removed, which now are offered to God in every place by the nations." (Again just becuase old Hippy boy had some strange idea about Elijah coming back to life with Enoch and the last 7 years of Daniel's 70 week prophecy being at the time of the end with the anti-christ, DOES NOT MAKE IT CORRECT! - Keith Hunt) In this same manuscript, Hippolytus identified the last half of Daniel's seventieth week (Daniel 9:27) with the Antichrist's persecution of the saints after the ministry of the two witnesses. "As also it was announced to Daniel: 'And one week shall confirm a covenant with many; and in the midst of the week it shall be that the sacrifice and oblation shall be removed' - that the one week might be shown to be divided into two. The two witnesses, then, shall preach three years and a half; and Antichrist shall make war upon the saints during the rest of the week, and desolate the world, that what is written may be fulfilled." (Yep, I guess Hippy boy realy did teach this popular present day fundamental teaching of the last week of Daniel's 70 week prophecy. On the other hand MANY of the fundamental Bible scholars of the 17th, 18th, 19th centuries in their popular Bible Commentaries TAUGHT NO SUCH TEACHING as Hippy boy and the present prophets like Jeffrey teach. See the Bible Commentaries of Albert Barnes; Adam Clarke; Matthew Henry, etc. - Keith Hunt) It is intriguing to note that the ancient Jewish sages also interpreted the prophecy of Daniel 9:24-27 to teach that the Messiah, "the son of David," will literally appear at the end of a seven-year period of great troubles, suffering, and distress. For example, the Babylonian Talmud contains the following statement regarding the return of the Messiah: "Our rabbis taught: In the seven-year cycle at the end of which the son of David will come ... at the conclusion of the septennate [7 year period] the son of David will come." In another passage, the Babylonian Talmud reported, "The advent of the Messiah was pictured as being preceded by years of great distress." (Hummmm, interesting, but Jewish ... whatever proves nothing. If you take a look at what Jesus thought about MUCH of "Jewish" theology in the Four Gospels, it is hardly flattering to try and quote from them just about anything that has to do with Jesus the Messiah - Keith Hunt) The Mark of the Beast Irenaeus also commented on the mark of the Beast and 666: "The number is 666, that is, six times a hundred, six times ten, and six units. (He gives this) as a summing up of the whole of that apostasy which has taken place during six thousand years. For in as many days as this world was made, in so many thousand years shall it be concluded. And for this reason the Scripture says: Thus the heaven and the earth were finished, and all their adornment. And God brought to a conclusion upon the sixth day the works that He had made; and God rested upon the seventh day from all His works. This is an account of the things formerly created; as it is a prophecy of what is to come. For the day of the Lord is as a thousand years; and in six days created things were completed: it is evident, therefore, that they will come to an end at the year sixth thousand." (Wellll nowwww .... according to the chronology of Usher [Adam being created in 4004 B.C.] we have sailed right by the bay of 6,000 years, and the 7th thousand millennium reign of the Kingdom of God on earth ain't come YET! The plain truth is God is NOT working on a 7,000 year plan. Science and true history now proves mankind has been on this earth for at LEAST 8 to 10 THOUSAND YEARS and maybe even more. Oh it may have been nice for Ireny fellow to try and look at creation and figure out some 7,000 year time span, IN HIS DAY, he had a few thousand years where he could not be proved wrong. BUT HE SURE IS PROVED WRONG TODAY! It's all clever dreaming folks, just wild speculation, which has NO bearing of FACT in any of it. There is not ONE WORD in Scripture to uphold the idea that God is working on some 7 THOUSAND YEAR time span for mankind on this earth - Keith Hunt) Irenaeus indicates in this passage his belief that Christ would establish His rule approximately two thousand years after His first coming. (Welllll, as Jesus was born 5 B.C. [there's a study on this Website proving that fact] we are getting kinda well over 2,000 years from our Savior's first coming, and He has not been sent back yet. Nice to figure things when you are 2,000 years away from it - Keith Hunt) Irenaeus wrote that some writers had speculated that the number 666 (Revelation 13:-18) may refer to the name Lateinos (the Latin) or Teitan (Titan) but he wisely refused to speculate about the name of the Antichrist. "We will not, however, incur the risk of pronouncing positively as to the name of Antichrist: for if it were necessary that his name should be distinctly revealed in this present time, it would have been announced by him who beheld the apocalyptic vision. For that was seen no very long time since, but almost in our day, towards the end of Domitian's reign." (Actually, Ireny guy could have figured it out, the fellow that started the Roman Empire - Romulus - his name adds up to 666 - and the Roman Empire was to have TEN resurrections, the last 7 ruled over by a woman whore church. The 7th and last Holy Roman Empire is yet to arise in Europe. It will be the last Romulus 666 empire to be on this earth - Keith Hunt) Victorinus wrote in his commentary that both John and Daniel prophesied about the satanic system of population control that the Antichrist will employ involving the mark. "Moreover, he himself shall contrive that his servants and children should receive as a mark on their foreheads, or on their right hands, the number of his name, lest any one should buy or sell them. Daniel had previously predicted his [the Antichrist's] contempt and provocation of God." (Not hard for Vic boy to do this, it is written in the book of Revelation as plain as day for all to read - Keith Hunt) Lactantius wrote in his "Divine Institutes" about the last three and a half years of terror during the Great Tribulation under the Antichrist's mark of the Beast system: "As many as shall believe him and unite themselves to him, shall be marked by him as sheep; but they who shall refuse his mark will either flee to the mountains, or, being seized, will be slain with studied tortures. He will also enwrap righteous men with the books of the prophets, and thus burn them; and power will be given him to desolate the whole earth for forty-two months." (Now isn't that some revelation on Lactantius' part. My oh my, he could read the Bible. I speak with tongue in cheek. He is not saying anything new, he's just restating what John wrote down in the book of Revelation. And by the way he was correct in keeping it all to the last 42 months you will note - Keith Hunt) The Temple will be Rebuilt in Jerusalem (Here we go again, with one of the fundamentalist folly of all time, the idea that prophecy cannot be fulfilled until we have a literal stone/wood Temple in Jerusalem - Keith Hunt) Lactantius wrote in "Divine Institutes" that there will be a rebuilt Temple in the last days that will be defiled by the Antichrist during the Tribulation when he will persecute the Jewish people. "Then he will attempt to destroy the temple of God, and persecute the righteous people; and there will be distress and tribulation such as there never has been from the beginning of the world." (The question no one seems to want to ask is what did old Lactantius mean by "destroy the temple of God"? This quote does not elaberate - it just is not there as to what is the "temple of God" - Keith Hunt) Irenaeus also refers to the Antichrist sitting in a rebuilt Temple in Jerusalem: "In which (Temple) the enemy shall sit, endeavoring to show himself as Christ, as the Lord." He quotes Jesus' words in Matthew 24 that refer to Daniel 9:24-27: "When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand)." (Irenaeus really did not study the subject in its FULL DEPTH. Most have followed him, they haven't studied it either in full detailed depth. I HAVE! And my findings are all in the study called "The Abomination of Desolation" on this Website. All prophecy can be fully fulfilled without there having to be a literal physical Temple in Jerusalem where Jews with offer animal sacrifices - Keith Hunt) The Rebirth of Israel It is interesting to note that several of the early Christian writers correctly interpreted the ancient prophecies that Israel would once again become a nation when the Jewish exiles returned to the Promised Land. Irenaeus acknowledged that Israel would become a nation again in his book "Against Heresies": "And again the same speaks thus: 'These things saith the Lord, I will gather Israel from all nations whither they have been driven ... and they shall dwell in their own land, which I gave to my servant Jacob." (How nice of Irenaeus to remind us of what is stated OVER AND OVER again in the prophets of old. But the modern fundamental prophets think the Jews in the Holy Land is the fulfilment of all those prophecies; they are once more very mistaken - Keith Hunt) Hippolytus wrote the following statement in his book "Treatise on Christ and Antichrist": "For he will call together all the people to himself out of every country of the dispersion, making them his own, as though they were his own children, and promising to restore their country and establish again their kingdom and nation in order that he may be worshipped by them as God." (All true, for Hippy man was just telling us what all the prophets of old have written for us centuries ago. Now if you think the Jews in the Holy Land have fulfilled this prophecy, ask yourself this question: How many Jews over there are "religious"? And if a few are, next question: Do they accept Christ as their Savior? Next question: If they do not, do you really believe under the New Covenant, God accepts their worship towards Him? I THINK NOT!! So as Hippy boy wrote it they ain't really worshipping God yet. Jesus said the time was that God wanted people who would worship Him in spirit and in truth. The Jews (who reject Jesus) .... their worship is not in spirit and in truth, therefore they worship God in vain, as Jesus told them they did, when they would not acknowledge Him as the Son of God, the Messiah, and kept their own traditions and made the commandments of God as no effect. The prophecy has not yet come to pass, but it will; you can read about as I expound all the prophets on this Website - Keith Hunt) The Fig Tree Represents Israel For many years the critics of modern prophecy teachers have denied that the prophetic passage of Christ's message in Matthew 24 regarding the "fig tree" actually referred to the rebirth of the nation Israel. Many critics suggest that there was no persuasive evidence that the "fig tree" actually refers to Israel and its restoration to the Promised Land in the last days. The Bible used the "fig tree," "fig," and "figs" numerous times as an obvious symbol of the nation Israel. For example, the book of Jeremiah used the "fig tree" as a symbol of the Jewish people. "Thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel; Like these good figs, so will I acknowledge them that are carried away captive of Judah, whom I have sent out of this place into the land of the Chaldeans for their good" (Jeremiah 24:5). Another significant use of the fig symbolically occurs in the repeated prophetic image of the Messianic dominion through the phrase, "But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree" (Micah 4:4). Jesus alluded to the same well-known messianic image of Israel at peace when He chose Nathanael to be His disciple, "When thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee" (John 1:48). However, a careful examination reveals there is clear and unequivocal evidence from the teachings of the primitive Church that they understood Christ's prophecy to definitely refer to Israel as the "fig tree." One of the Church writings that appeared in the first century following Jesus Christ clearly identifies the fig tree as a prophetic symbol of Israel. The ancient book known as the "Apocalypse of Peter," which is an early second century (A.D.110-140) commentary on the Gospel of Matthew, was discovered for the first time in 1887 in a Greek text, and an Ethiopian version was found in 1910. The Apocalypse of Peter comments on Christ's specific words used in the Matthew 24 Mount of Olives passage, when Jesus gave one of His most detailed messages regarding the Second Coming. Of particular note are the prophetic symbols used by Christ in this passage, especially His use of the "fig tree" symbol. This early Christian document states the following: And ye, receive ye the Parable of the fig-tree thereon: as soon as its shoots have gone forth and its boughs have sprouted, the end of the world will come. And I, Peter, answered and said unto him, "Explain to me concerning the fig-tree, [and] how we shall perceive it, for throughout all its days does the fig-tree sprout and every year it brings forth its fruit [and] for its master. What (then) meaneth the parable of the fig-tree? We know it not. And the Master answered and said unto me, "Dost thou not understand that the fig-tree is the house of Israel?" Hast thou not grasped that the fig-tree is the house of Israel? Verily, I say to you that when its boughs have sprouted at the end, then shall deceiving Christs come, and awaken hope (with the words): "I am the Christ, who am (now) come into the world." (The fundamental prophets today will not admit WHO the very peoples of the House of Israel are! If they knew they would see indeed that the House of Israel has sprouted, and we are in the days of many false prophets, many deceiving Christs have come and are here - Keith Hunt) A later comment in the Apocalypse of Peter on Christ's vital prophecy reveals that early Christian commentators understood that Jesus' plan was to restore the nation of Israel before the final "last days" crisis when the Antichrist will appear. (And so they probably had in mind the Jews from various lands, coming back to Palestine. By reading the prophets of old, and by getting their time frame mixed up, they no doubt thought the Jews needed to come again as a nation to the Holy Land before Jesus would return. In actual correct time setting of those prophecies, the people of Israel are to return to the Holy Land AFTER the Great Tribulation of the last 42 months of this age, and at the coming again of the Messiah to earth, who will take command in leading them back from the lands of their enemies, where they will have been scattered during the last 1260 days of this age - Keith Hunt) Another interesting comment is found in the statement in The Apocalypse of Peter that the two witnesses, "Enoch and Elias [Elijah]," will play key roles in the last days: "Then shall the boughs of the fig-tree, i.e. the house of Israel, sprout, and there shall be many martyrs by His hand: they shall be killed and become martyrs. Enoch and Elias will be sent to instruct them that this is the deceiver who must come into the world and do signs and wonders in order to deceive." (Again, all this shows is that the writers of this Apocalypse of Peter, were "out to lunch" - "way off left field" - "fallen off the beam" - for they obviously did not have correct, the subject of "death" as taught in the Holy Scriptures. Elijah and Enoch are dead, and will not come back to life again until the resurrection at the coming of the Messiah, AFTER the deceiver has come, after the Tribulation and Day of the Lord has all been fulfilled - Keith Hunt) A small note of correction: Despite the statement, the evidence is compelling that Enoch will not be one of the two witnesses because he was not a Jew and his rapture to heaven did not uniquely qualify him for the role as one of the two witnesses. (What human reasoning of theology we have here. I shake my head in disbelief at the ideas men can come up with to supposedly explain Scripture - Keith Hunt) Elijah and Moses appeared together with Jesus Christ revealing the glory of His coming kingdom on the Mount of Transfiguration. This fact strongly suggests that Elijah and Moses, who previously caused drought and plagues, will be the Two Witnesses of the last days described in Revelation 11:3-13. Malachi's prophecy about Elijah also mentions the role of Moses (Malachi 4:4-5). (I should not be so surprised at the ideas of fundamental theology. The two witnesses, who they are, is not told to us. We await to see. But I can tell you for sure, they will not be Moses, Elijah, Enoch, or anyone that ever lived before. All that ever lived are NOW DEAD, all except Christ. No one will be resurrected back to life, UNTIL the resurrection at the coming of the Lord Jesus. And that coming and resurrection is AFTER the last 42 months of this age - Keith Hunt) This statement of Christ about the parable of the figs from the earliest days of the apostolic Church provides compelling evidence that believers who lived closest to the apostles understood the words of Christ in Matthew 24:30 to prophetically foretell the rebirth of Israel in the last days. (Nope ... Jesus was simply saying that when you see the signs He told us about to watch for in the world, then His coming would not be far away. In this context the fig tree had nothing to do with Israel - Keith Hunt) The prophetic teachings of the great theologians of the primitive Church provide compelling evidence that they understood the prophecies about the return of Christ and the future millennial dominion as we do today. Therefore, we can have confidence that our own prophetic interpretation about the coming Antichrist, the seven-year Tribulation, the mark of the Beast, and Christ's triumphant victory over Satan to establish His millennial kingdom are biblically valid and consistent with the Word of God as understood and taught by the first Christians. (The Bible certainly gives instruction on the COMING of the Lord; the 1,000 year millennium rule of Christ on earth; the False Prophet anti-christ; the Greast Tribulation; the Mark of the Beast; the victory of Christ over Satan. BUT THE TEACHING OF A 7 YEAR GREAT TRIBULATION IS TOTALLY FALSE AND IS NOWHERE TAUGHT IN THE SCRIPTURES. DANIEL 9 IS VERY MISUNDERSTOOD BY MANY FUNDAMENTAL PROPHETS, AS IS THE NEED FOR A PHYSICAL TEMPLE IN JERUSALEM IN WHICH JEWS WILL AGAIN PERFORM ANIMAL SACRIFICES. THE TRUTH OF THESE LAST TOPICS, AS WELL AS THE TRUTH ON THE "RAPTURE" TEACHING, CAN ALL BE FOUND IN VARIOUS STUDIES ON THIS WEBSITE - Keith Hunt)

The EU is funding a European project
for child victims of violence
The Justice and Consumers Directorate-General of the European Commission has financed a European project submitted by the HOSPITALITY EUROPE office in Brussels, for child and adolescent victims of domestic violence. The application had been made in November and funding of EUR420,000 has been approved. This is the very first project to be coordinated by one of the Orders European Centres under the EU Programme to assist victims and witnesses of domestic violence. For the project will be led by the St John of God Hospital in Barcelona and involve the Rome-based Fatebenefratelli Foundation (Tiber Island), the St. Hedwig clinic of the St John of God Hospital in Regensburg, as well as the Bambino Gesù Childrens Hospital in Rome.
The project will take off after the summer, and will offer the opportunity to provide Europe-wide training for the health care personnel in the participating facilities, by sharing and enhancing their skills and capabilities to correctly detect cases where patients have developed behavioural or post-traumatic stress problems as a result of having been victims of or witnesses to domestic violence.
This kind of training is particularly important today in childrens psychiatry apartments and paediatric clinics, where it is increasingly more difficult to distinguish between cases of neurodevelopmental problems (such as the ADHD or hyperactivity-compulsivity) and post-traumatic behavioural reactions on the past of child victims or witnesses of violence.
In addition to improving the health care workers knowledge and skills in this field, the project will implement an appropriate support programme to meet the psychological-physical needs of the victims and their loved ones.
The hospitals taking part in the project will also draft a protocol jointly with the Local Authorities to encourage people to report violence and ensure that increasingly more prompt action is taken by the judicial authorities in the countries concerned.

The Rapid Plasma Reagin Test abbreviated RPR is a non-treponemal macroscopic flocculation test for the serological screening of syphilis.It detects the presence of reagin antibody in the serum of a patent suffering from syphilis.During RPR test method, reagins form visible flocculants upon reacting with the carbon-containing RPR antigen.Rpr test for syphilis has replaced the Venereal Disease Research Laboratory (VDRL) test, as a rapid screening test due to the following reasons
- There is no need for daily preparation of reagents.
- No microscope is required.
- Heat inactivation of serum is not required
The test uses the VDRL antigen modified with choline chloride to inactivate complement, and charcoal particles to allow the results of the reaction to be read without the use of a microscope.
It is a reliable, economical, reproducible and rapid test which is easy to read without the help of a microscope. The specificity and sensitivity of the test are similar to those of VDRL test, the sensitivity being 85-90% in primary disease, 100% in secondary, 90-95% in latent disease and 75% in late or tertiary stage.
Principle of Rapid Plasma Reagin Test
RPR antigen suspension is a carbon coated non-treponemal cardiolipin antigen, which detects reaginic antibodies present in serum/plasma of patients suffering from treponemal infections.
These antibodies may be occasionally found in sera of persons with other non treponemal conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, tuberculosis, Kala-azar, 132 etc.
There are two types of antibodies that are produced in response to treponema pallidum infection which are
- the host forms specific anti-treponemal antibodies to Treponema pallidum
- The anti-lipid antibodies in response to the lipoidal material released from the infected host cell which are referred to as reagins.
When a specimen contains the anti-lipid antibodies, flocculation occurs due to co-agglutination of the carbon particles of the RPR antigen with the antibodies, which appear as black clumps against the white background of the card, which is read with the naked eye.
The non-reactive specimens show an even light grey colour. This test does not look for antibodies against the actual bacterium, but rather for antibodies against substances released by cells when they are damaged by T. pallidum

Getting a divorce can be a difficult, emotional time. Many couples struggle to agree about the basics of the process, including child custody and asset division. One thing fewer people stop to think about before filing divorce is debt.
Student loans, car loans, mortgages and credit cards all have a profound impact on your financial status. While you are likely aware of the fact that your marital assets will get divided by the courts during your divorce, you may not realize that your debts and your spouse's debts will get divided as well. Unless there is a prenuptial agreement, you will end up sharing the debts.
Slippery slope between the terms "equitable" and "fair"
When it comes to property division, Georgia is an equitable distribution state. That means that the courts will look over your current circumstances and consider your future prospects when deciding how to divide your assets and debts.
For example, if one spouse has historically stayed home and therefore has fewer personal assets and less earning potential, the courts will consider that when deciding how to divide up your assets during the divorce. Equitable basically means fair, and fair does not always mean a 50/50 split of all assets.
The date of the debt matters more than the name
So, you may be thinking that the courts couldn't possibly expect you to pay on a credit card or a student loan that is solely in your spouse's name. However, depending on when the loan or line of credit was taken out, the courts could very well order you to assume half of that debt.
Just like with assets, debts from before the marriage are one person's obligation. Any debts incurred after your marriage are considered marital debts. Those debts will be split equitably, even if only one spouse contributed to their development. After all, your spouse assumed those student loans while believing that both of your incomes would be put toward paying it off.
Exceptions to equitable distribution of debts
There are some exceptions to the practice of dividing marital debts. In cases of adultery, for example, the courts may review financial information more carefully. Any amount of money spent on an affair, from gifts, to rent, to vacations and dinners could come out of the assets that would otherwise get allocated to the partner who cheated.
Similarly, if one spouse was recklessly squandering marital assets by gambling or feeding an addiction, those funds could also be considered during the debt and asset division process.
If your spouse had the debt before your marriage, you likely won't have to help pay it. Excepting special circumstances, however, you could very well end up paying half of any debt accumulated during the course of your marriage.

Grace Runciman
- Hometown:
- Burlington, ON
- What conservation issue is closest to your heart?
- Going back to when I was a child to today as I go on hikes in southern Ontario, one issue of conservation always stands out to me is litter. It has always made my gut sink seeing the amount of garbage that ends up in the streams near my house, and even in the more remote shores in Algonquin. I have recently begun a strong effort to eliminate my dependence on single-use plastics, and I would love to share with others how easy it can be.
- What are you hoping to learn from CCC?
- I am so excited for all of the opportunities offered in the CCC adventure. Not only am I able to contribute to a conservation effort in Canada, but I get to see a new part of our amazing country and share my knowledge and passion for environmental conservation actions with the community. I anticipate that I will grow a lot personally during this adventure.
- Who/what inspired you to care about conservation?
- A connection to the environment has been in my nature since a young age. It wasn't until my decision to study environmental science in university that I started getting more involved with understanding threats to the Canadian environment and conservation efforts. I thank my parents for introducing me to outdoor adventures at a young age, and not getting mad when I would come home covered in dirt.
- If you could sit down with anyone in the world and have tea or coffee, who would it be? And why?
- If I could sit down and have a cup of tea with anyone in the world (and travel back in time), I would give anything to sit down with my grandmother Grace. My Dad's mother passed away when he was young, so I never had the honour of knowing her. I have heard so many stories about how amazing of a woman she was, and how my family always sees her in me. Not only do we share a name, but we share a love for all living beings. I would love the opportunity to share with her the adventures I am taking and the life path I have chosen.

Get Patients to Come Back to Your Practice Again and Again
Cosmetic practices are a perfect fit for loyalty programs. They can help your practice develop lifetime patients and a steady stream of recurring revenue.
Patient loyalty programs get your clients excited about your services, maintain consistently beautiful results, and save money all at the same time. It helps your practice retain the patients you've earned, as well as open a dedicated channel for much-anticipated marketing and promotional communications. These strategies ultimately increase your revenue.
Discover LoveMyDoc, our unique digital loyalty program – Available as a mobile app and web browser portal!
Page 1 Solutions is excited to offer a complete, all-in-one patient loyalty program that includes a custom app for cosmetic-focused practices! Learn more by calling us at 303-233-3886.
What Is a Loyalty Program?
In addition to increasing patient retention, loyalty programs can add a significant revenue stream without taking up surgeon time.
Loyalty programs increase sales for plastic surgery offices and med spas by an average of 35%!
Some of the fastest growing practices with high profit margins have developed strong non-surgical revenue centers. Now you can take it a step further with your own branded loyalty program.
Retention is the key to increasing revenue.
Many practices in the aesthetics industry focus on generating new patients. New lead generation is important, but so is retaining patients who have enjoyed your products and services before.
For many patients, cosmetic treatment is not one-and-done.
Many become interested in a variety of procedures – surgical and non-surgical – as they get older and their needs and goals change. A loyalty program allows your practice to encourage that interest with cost savings AND high-quality messaging that creates an exclusive experience.
Is a Patient Loyalty Program Right for Me?
You don't necessarily need to be a huge practice located in a major city in order to create a successful loyalty program. We have found that practices just need a wide variety of products and services in order to have a successful loyalty program. Your program should have many different treatment options in order to entice your current patients to make a return appointment.
Find out if a loyalty program is right for your practice. Contact Page 1 Solutions for a complimentary consultation.
Creating Your Customized Loyalty Program
Our marketing consultants will collaborate with you on all aspects of development, including:
- Structure of the program, including prices
- Design for the loyalty card and print collateral
- Promotion through digital marketing
- Print ads
- Social media marketing
- Training your staff
- Launch event promotion
Some plastic surgeons and cosmetic practices also implement a smartphone app that tracks points. Patients love this because it is so easy to use. When patients earn enough points, they qualify for special discounts. We provide support with the creation and management of the loyalty program app.
Criteria for a Successful Loyalty Program
Our consultants will take into account several different factors to help you determine the prices you should offer for the loyalty program. These factors include:
- Regional pricing
- Comparison with similar loyalty programs
- Name recognition of your practice
"Give more. Get more" is the guideline for a successful loyalty program.
Offering a lower price for your service catches the patient's eye, but the quality of the messaging and the consistently excellent experience ultimately get patients to come back to your practice again and again.
LoveMyDoc Digital Loyalty Program
In addition to the proven and customizable solutions above, we are proud to introduce the LoveMyDoc digital loyalty program for plastic surgeons, doctors offering cosmetic procedures, and med spas. Powered by Page 1 Solutions, LoveMyDoc is available in both app and browser-based options.
Your practice will receive the web browser portal when you purchase the app, or you can purchase the web portal as a standalone service. For best results, we recommend offering your patients the option to download the app.
Here's why:
- We live in a mobile-first world, where smartphone traffic to your website almost certainly outnumbers the users showing up on desktop.
- Smartphone users access an average of 30 apps on their phone each month, according to Business of Apps.
- Staying connected with loyal patients on an app enables greater flexibility. Visitors can easily see how many points they have and how close they are to the next tier right on a device they use all day, everyday, rather than having to sit down at a computer.
- The LoveMyDoc app features the ability to send push notifications in the form of text messages to patients who are eligible to claim rewards. Whether they're at home or on the go, you can send a timely update that they will see on their favorite device.
- Patients may overlook online ads and even emails, but they are likely to pay attention to texts from a business they know and trust. Patients agree to become part of the loyalty program, so they will expect and even look forward to your updates.
You and your team manage LoveMyDoc through a convenient webmin right in your browser. The webmin is a centralized hub that allows you to send the push notifications, view the points users have accrued, see the revenue generated through patients who redeem loyalty program rewards, and more.
LoveMyDoc is a groundbreaking solution for cultivating patient relationships and return business. Patients who download the app and/or access the web browser portal feel connected to your practice. Your practice gains the opportunity to build and maintain relationships with your current patients, as well as earn revenue from a customer base who knows your services, trusts you, and requires less persuasion to spend money than a new patient.
Get Started – Contact Us Today!
Patients across demographics value discounts. They also value personalized communication with the practice.
A custom loyalty program meets both of these needs. Start designing your loyalty program by calling 303-233-3886 for a complimentary consultation with Page 1 Solutions today.

How To Get Started Collecting Coins
Getting your coin collection started isn't as hard as you might think and there are a number of avenues you can pursue. Most of it depends though on why you want to become a coin collector. If you're doing it just as a relaxing hobby then you have no problem and can get started pretty much off the b
Coin Investing
This article discusses the pros and cons o investing in rare coins.
Coin Fun Facts
There are approximately $8 billion worth of coins circulating in the U.S. today. In the past 30 years, the U.S. Mint, who is responsible for designing and producing the nation's coins, has minted over 300 billion coins, worth about $15 billion!
Take Care Of Your Coins
There are collectors that specifically find classic editions of coins that existed during the period from 1892 to 1954. These coins have marked events or may signify the work of royalty during that period. There are those collectors that prefer the modern series that are very distinct as well. One
How To Find Rare Coins
Coin collecting was started only as a hobby for most people, however you can hear what other people say (or you probably have heard yourself) about news of people cashing in on their old coin; and that encouraged more people to go on a coin-collecting streak. If you are one of those people who want
Coin Dealer Safety
Coin collecting can be a lot of fun. This hobby which dates back to 2500 BC is much larger now since people are now able to collect currencies from other countries.
Should You Use A grading Service?
Coin collecting has been a very popular hobby to many people of all ages. The marketing of coins has expanded widely and because of this wide the market prices of coins has varied immensely.
Beginnings of U.S. Coinage
Throughout the Colonial years, Americans had become accustomed use of the Spanish dollar and its fractional parts, the real, the medio (half-real), etc. It was only natural, therefore, that when a national coinage was under consideration the dollar was mentioned most frequently.
Storing Your Coins Safely
Major problems with holding coins are the risks of fire, theft, and impairment of condition through environmental conditions. Accordingly, before you invest a lot of money in coins, resign yourself to the fact that you must invest additional money for the purpose of safe storage.
Getting Started
Before we go into any detail on collecting coins and sundry other details, I feel that I should introduce you to one, or rather two, simple facts which will help you in your coin dealings.

A new website has been launched—Debate Questions for Steve King—to provide a collection of questions which could be asked the 4th District Representative in a debate.
- The questions have been written to address Rep. King's statements and actions in the last few years, thus making them timely.
- The questions have been written to be non-partisan and similar to questions Rep. King might be asked in an actual debate.
- The questions have been written to be on issues publicly known, making them surprise-free.
This site serves simply as a resource for journalists and citizens.
These questions are welcome to be used by the two campaigns to continue discussion of a possible debate. At the very least, they provide topics for which the King campaign could choose to address for constituents or journalists could seek to have answered from Rep. King.
