They already had taken the mark. The virgins told them to go and buy because they knew they could. Taking the mark requires in some way a denial of Christ and aligning and agreeing with a system that has denied Him. So they have erased all their identity with Christ and that is why He says He...

After the Christians are gathered after the tribulation, they are protected from the time of wrath when the bowl judgments are poured out. If any come to the Lord at that time, they will miss the marriage supper of the Lamb. Those who are alive and remain at Jesus's coming will receive Him...

When the apostle Paul said "Then comes the end" he was referring to the end of the reign of the wicked which occurs after the dead in Christ are raised after the tribulation. We have to co-ordinate everything in order to understand scripture properly. We can't just take Paul's statement, build a...

The timing of the parable occurs just before Jesus returns when the mark is in effect. That is why the virgins were able to buy and sell and why they were rejected. They had let the oil in their lamps go out. Oil is symbolic of the Holy Spirit and the Spirit is the Spirit of truth. They had lost...

My reading is based on Revelation which fills in what the apostles were teaching. Peter taught that the world was going to end, from his reading of the prophets, but that was written before John's Revelation which came in after Peter's death and filled in the details. The same applies to what...

These passages are referring to Jesus' millennial reign. This occurs after the tribulation. His sign appears in the sky first Matt. 24:30, then He sends His angels to gather His people. This is the only time there will be no true believers on earth. Heaven's time zone is different than ours, so...

The postmillennial theology really isn't based on scripture, it a a philosophy based loosely on scripture. The word says that there will be a falling away from the faith, a time of apostasy before Jesus returns II Thess. 2:3. The world definitely is not going to get better. That is not the...

John Calvin had a religious spirit as do the majority of Christians today. What has this got to do with the subject of the thread?

Okay. The Geneva Bible was published before the King James Version, and influenced the King James translators. It was later banned in favor of the King James. It pre-dated the King James by about 51 years. The Geneva Bible was taken from Wycliffe's translation among others. It was banned by the...

I don't want to get away from the subject of my thread. But, the verses you quote from Zechariah that describes the mourning, relates to the surviving Jews after the second captivity (Zechariah 14-1,2)when they see that Jesus is the Messiah who has returned and stopped the war. In prophecy much...

What has that got to do with the subject of this thread?

I haven't read any of your posts. There is no world peace during the tribulation. Jesus shows us in Matthew 24 that the tribulation begins with an attack on Jerusalem. And further more, the subject of my post is validating the Messiah through Daniel's prophecy, a subject which you have tried to...

I am not a preterist, where do you get that from? Jesus' currently bringing men to salvation and in a spiritual sense He is here through the workings of His Holy Spirit, but He is not ruling over a worldly kingdom. He will rule and reign when He physically comes at His second coming. Daniel's...

I don't rely just on Paul's chronology. In order for any interpretation to be correct all the scriptures have to be consulted. When Jesus returns any survivors from the tribulation and the time of wrath will have that opportunity to receive Jesus. We see in Zechariah 12 that the Jews will look...

Zechariah 14 deals with the time after the antichrist has been defeated. The first part of Daniel 11 describes Antiochus the second part describes the last antichrist and he is from "the people who destroyed the city" Daniel 9:26, meaning Jerusalem in 70 AD. The linked to the people who...
