The Greatest Appointments
Everyone has an appointment with death, and everyone has an appointment to meet God in judgment. Neither can be postponed, and neither can be avoided — which is why Scripture calls us to prepare now.
Sharing the Everlasting Gospel
The hour of His judgment is come.
Time Is At Hand Evangelistic Ministries has carried the everlasting gospel of Revelation 14:6 to the nations since 1999 — verse-by-verse Bible study, the Three Angels’ Messages, end-time prophecy, and practical care for the poor, the orphaned and the forgotten across the Caribbean, Africa, the Philippines and Europe.

About TIAH
An international ministry that began with one series of meetings
Time Is At Hand Evangelistic Ministries began in September 1999 with a series of evangelistic meetings in the Cayman Islands. Since then we have grown into an international evangelistic ministry working across Africa, the Philippines, the Caribbean and Europe.
Alongside the preaching we feed the poor, help orphanages and send children to school — reaching people on the ground in a practical way, raising their standard of living, and then pointing them to Christ, the way, the truth and the life.

Except Ye See
Trouble brought the nobleman to Christ. Sometimes the trial we would never choose becomes the blessing that draws us close to the Saviour.

Except A Man
Water baptism is the public declaration. But there is a deeper baptism — of the Holy Ghost and fire — without which no one enters the kingdom of God.
John 15:4
Except Ye Abide
However good the branch may appear, the moment it is severed from the vine it begins to wither. Fruit is the evidence of connection, not effort.
Luke 13:5
Except Ye Repent
Calamity is not a verdict on the sufferer. It is a summons to the onlooker. Instead of judging others, we are called to look into ourselves and repent.
Acts 27:31
Except Ye Abide In
When Euroclydon strikes, seamanship, rank and wealth are all useless. The old ship of Zion is battered but it will make harbour — and safety is found aboard.
Matthew 18:3
Except Ye Be Converted
The disciples argued about rank. Christ answered with a child. Greatness in the kingdom is not the ability to be better than others, but the willingness to be humble.

Questions
Questions about the everlasting gospel and the Three Angels’ Messages
What is Time Is At Hand Evangelistic Ministries?
Time Is At Hand Evangelistic Ministries (TIAH) is an international evangelistic ministry founded in September 1999 in the Cayman Islands by Devon and Vanrica Searchwell. It shares the everlasting gospel through verse-by-verse Bible study, evangelistic campaigns and practical welfare work across Africa, the Philippines, the Caribbean and Europe.
What does “the time is at hand” mean?
The phrase comes from Revelation 1:3 and Revelation 22:10 — “blessed is he that readeth… for the time is at hand.” It means the events of Bible prophecy are near enough to act on now. Scripture uses the same urgency elsewhere: the coming of the Lord is at hand, and the day of the Lord is at hand. It is a call to read, understand and be ready rather than to set dates.
What are the Three Angels’ Messages?
They are the three proclamations of Revelation 14:6–12. The first angel carries the everlasting gospel to every nation, kindred, tongue and people, calling us to fear God and give glory to Him because the hour of His judgment is come, and to worship the Creator. The second announces that Babylon is fallen. The third warns against receiving the mark of the beast.
What is the everlasting gospel?
The everlasting gospel is the same message from age to age — in simple terms, repentance towards God and faith in Christ for salvation (Mark 1:15). Revelation 14:6 describes it being preached to every nation, kindred, tongue and people. It is the first of the Three Angels’ Messages and the heart of what this ministry preaches.
What does “the hour of His judgment is come” mean?
It is the announcement of the first angel in Revelation 14:7. This ministry understands it as the judgment-hour message: a work of investigative judgment beginning in the heavenly sanctuary before Christ returns, which is why the appeal is to fear God, give glory to Him and worship the Creator now.
What is the mark of the beast?
Revelation 14:9–11 warns against receiving the mark of the beast. This ministry teaches it as a mark of allegiance in the final conflict over worship — the opposite of the seal of God — and studies it in context alongside the Three Angels’ Messages rather than in isolation. The full exposition is in the study on the everlasting gospel.
Where can I find free Bible studies on Daniel and Revelation?
All of the ministry’s Bible studies are free to read online, including verse-by-verse studies on the Book of Daniel chapters 1 to 10, the sanctuary, the mystery of the eternal Godhead, the origins of evil and getting to know Jesus. Printable PDF booklets and a twelve-lesson Bible study course are also free to download.
Where can I watch Time Is At Hand sermons and follow the ministry?
Full messages and campaign highlights are published on the ministry’s official YouTube channel, and shorter encouragements, verses and photographs from the field are shared on Instagram and Facebook — all linked from every page of this site. Written articles and updates are published on the ministry blog.
How can I support the ministry?
Time Is At Hand is a faith-based ministry reliant on the generosity of individuals. You can give towards evangelistic projects, orphan care, schools and poor families, or church building — you can sponsor a child from £10 a month — and you can support the team in prayer.
