We are a home school (prefer to call it “home education”) family dedicated first and foremost to the Lord Jesus Christ. Over the last several years, our family has discovered its many God-given talents. In this pursuit, we dabbled in many different and interesting enterprises. Nothing has brought joy to our hearts like serving the Lord through serving others. Listed below are some of our continuing and steadfast services as well as some new endeavors.
In a business sense, we remain Utmost Enterprises, however, as of late, with much prayer, we have begun our true love of family ministry (Life in the Bible Institute). This is now a 501(c)(3) ministry. This means we are a bona fide tax-deductible charity in the eyes the government as we have been in the eyes of our Lord for some time now.
In a time such as this, where many people in the world are attempting to delete the Bible and all mention of God from society, we desperately need your donations. So, if you feel lead to be a part of our effort to fight against the lack of knowledge by which many people are perishing, then please don’t wait or hesitate to give to Life in the Bible Institute (use PayPal “donate” button found at the website for Life in the Bible Institute - see link below). Time is running out!
You can also help our family greatly by using one or more of our services. These are our sole source of income, while we are missionaries to this cause.
PLEASE LOOK AT THE FOLLOWING MINISTRIES AND SERVICES WE OFFER:

Dear Mr. Aprile,
I just found your site in searching for an answer to something. While I didn’t find that, I did find something monumental. I am a recent born again, and admittedly knew next to zero about the bible. I had pretty much come to the conclusion that I believed in the pre-trib view, but just when I thought I was done, I would read something that made me doubt all over.
What I just read in your writings was that it has to be pre, otherwise we are looking for something/someone other than our Lord. THANK YOU!!!! It was just what I needed, perfect. And something I had not read in ALL the reading I have done on this. Bless you, you have given me much peace!
However, I wonder if you could spare the time to answer/address this verse. It’s what I was searching for in the first place.
Matthew 24: 22: And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.
My question is, are those who are saved after the rapture not considered the elect? I am assuming not, otherwise this doesn’t make sense (for a pre-trib). I would love your thoughts on this when you have time, I’m sure you’re very busy.
And once again, thank you and God bless.
