by BibleStudy.org (Farmington, Michigan) What is wormwood? Where is it located in the Bible? What does it mean? How is it related to the prophetic Day of the Lord?

Rodney Atkinson, author of three books on the subject of Fascist Europe Rising (his most recent), led the charge, sounded the alarm, from a strictly secular point of view that interestingly matched what theologian Herbert W.
