    New Views on the Rapture

    RB ( short for Retrobyter ) - You make a solid defense and knowledgable argument for a SPECULATIVE description of the Holy Jerusalem. However, scripture simply doesn't detail your wanton understanding, or vision, of the Holy Jerusalem. Be careful, RB, because you're going down that path whereby...

    RAPTURE QUESTION + answer

    Psalm 48 is talking about Holy City, new Jerusalem, the city that descends to earth, and the mountain of God, the holy mountain, Mt Zion, AFTER IT HAS DESCENDED TO EARTH.. This Psalm is speaking of nothing else, period. It's corresponding passage is in Rev 21. Plain and simple. Nothing here to...

    RAPTURE QUESTION + answer

    I've read the Psalms, and frankly, fail to see where they align with historical accounts, albeit, everything written there is subject to interpretation....and in some cases....really ambiguous and "reaching" type interpretations. Frankly, when it comes to numerology, I'd prefer to put my trust...

    How Many Resurrections Are There? (Rapture Topic)

    First Resurrection = Resurrection of dead and living in Christ, pre-mil. Second Resurrection = Resurrection of the dead for the GWTJ, post-mil. That simple folks....You guys are complicating the obvious....don't worry about the fate of the damned, either post-mil or pre-mil. Now, what other...

    How Many Resurrections Are There? (Rapture Topic)

    Rev 20:4 & 5 is simply stating that those that accompany Christ to Armageddon, set-up shop in Jerusalem and rule the nations of the earth from there for 1000 years with Christ as their mentor. Those that were resurrected in the first resurrection include all the Disciples and everyone in Christ...

    How Many Resurrections Are There? (Rapture Topic)

    Scripture does claim two resurrections, one pre-mil, one post-mil. What's the problem? You can tell me, 'Scribe... B)

    Wavy Gravy, a man of peace

    He's a moron who is a follower of the cult, Mormon. Plain and simple....oh? Not talking about Nit Romney, the Republican candidate for The Presidency? Oh well...got my 2 cents in anyway.... ;)

    How Many Resurrections Are There? (Rapture Topic)

    There is only one resurrection, pre-mil. Those WHO'S BODIES lie dead in graves throughout Christian history are changed and reunited with their souls, and THEN those who are in Christ but are alive, shall be changed and scooped-up to meet Christ in the air. These same souls are also one and the...

    RAPTURE QUESTION + answer

    There is a year that can be calculated to determine the "season" of Christ's return. It is simply 2000 years after the date of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. If this were not true, then the words of Christ are not true. Ad-libing, Christ said that if your enemy commands you to carry...

    Recognizing the antichrist and the subtle methods of the adversary

    Mr. Pardo - You have an excellent way of relaying your thoughts in the written form. I've been impressed by your clarity in thinking, and in the clarity in which you present your opinions, thoughts, etc.. You also give a great amount of care in assuring you praise God in any of your comments. I...

    Rev 21:16 - "And the city lieth foursquare..." There's your "precedent", Bible Scribe. The term "foursquare" appears in no circle / sphere description I've ever heard of. Just admit it, BS...it's NOT a sphere. It's ok ....( You're getting as bad as Petra now! LOL ! ).... Your friend, Mike

    New Views on the Rapture

    Retrobyter, Bible Scribe - Items no. 1-6 of Retrobyter's analysis, is dead-on!.... And were reasons I was going to use to show that there is indeed a "New Earth". And the new earth is a totally separate entity from the New ( Holy ) Jerusalem. However, your 7th point is in error. There is only...

    New Views on the Rapture

    God will dwell with men on Earth, from the New Jerusalem, as it is written: Rev 21:2 & 3 The New Jerusalem is a cube, 1500 miles in width, height, and depth. It descends from Heaven and will rest on Earth. This takes place after the 1000 year Millennial Reign of Christ, and after God makes all...

    Prophesy: The Whore of Babylon is ISIS "THE STATUE OF LIBERTY."

    Bible Scribe- Nothing I can't stand more than those who use scripture to forward a hate message. These types are lower than the low in my opinion. Also can't stand British-Israel-ist. Their whole premise is founded in outright bigotry and racism. I hope I'm standing at the throne and see one of...
