    Are we on our way to the GWT?

    Another end time question?

    Kriss, How is it that we are warned that "your adversary, the devil prowels about as a roaring lion seeking someone to devour" (1 Peter 5:8, and "we are not ignorant of his schemes" (2 Cor 2:11), and James 4:7 "resist the devil and he will flee from you," and "do not give the devil an...

    Are we on our way to the GWT?

    The GWT does not include the judgment of saints. Saints would not be judged by their works, but those who are not saints would. We see a set of books consulted wherein is contained a record of man's works, and a book, the book of life wherein is recorded the names of those who by faith in the...

    Proof!

    The last verse in the book of Judges in the Old Testament says it all today, "In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in his own eyes." Judges 21:25. Today we see the chaos that results when mankind does not have the true King reigning, and does what is right in...

    Natural Children and God's Children

    I agree with you entirely, but feel I must ask, Do you recognize that believing Israel is a segment within the church today? I have jewish grandparents, one of my best friend's father is a Jew (Rosen), whom I shared Christ with and is now in the church. samy

    Proof!

    Just the fact that God destroyed Sodom and Gamorrah should cause us to be somewhat expectant of something. I'm quite sure that rampant, aggressive, homosexuality did not just happen overnight in S&G, any more than it has today in so many places (CA). Society has been spoiling for a long time and...

    first works?

    It appears that in Ephesians 2:10 we are saved, a creative and finished work of Christ, for good works. "For we are His workmanship creaed in Christ Jesus for good works that we should walk in them." Eph 2:10. God gets the bragging rights when we, with our new lives and the power of the Holy...

    70 weeks

    The break is not arbitrary, but it is definiely a break. The break is at the time of the crucifixion of Christ, a very significant incident in history. And the break is in the middle of the week. Notice that Daniel writes about the remaianing 3 1/2 years in DAniel 7, 8, 12. There still needs to...

    70 weeks

    I would respond in this way. I see that believing Jews and believing gentiles are distinguishable groups within the one body of Christ today, and as also demonstrated by Christ's letters to the seven churches Rev 2-3, Smyrna & Philadelphia, vs, the other five. And I would challenge you to...

    The Two Witnesses

    I guess if you need an individual to show up and be reincarnated so he can fit a prophetic theory, you just assert it and it becomes probably true. Please note that those who hold the Elijah-witness theory are often those who hold that John the Babtist could have actually been flesh and blood...

    The Two Witnesses

    The two witnesses will "show up" at the beginning of the great tribulation which is 3 1/2 years long. There is no 7 year tribulation mentioned anywhere in the Bible. the 70th week of Daniel is nowhere called the great tribulation. The book of Daniel repeatedly tells us of a future 3 1/2 year...

    ezekiel 38 & 39

    liz7711, I have written that we are the temple of Christ, His body, as revealed in the NT, Eph 3 (last 4 verses); 1 peter 2:1-7; 1 Cor 3. We are the temple that will be attacked in the end times because Christ Jesus dwells in us and we are evangelizing others. samy

    Lord's Day is Day of The Lord

    I correspond with two prominent N.T. scholars (one a Ph.D in Greek at Wheaton and one a PhD and ThD at Dallas) regarding my work. The one at Wheaton largely agrees with my position on Lord's Day (Wheaton), the other, at Dallas, does not. Neither dismisses me with the apparent ease you find. Many...

    2300 Evening-mornings of Daniel 8

    Tamid is used a total of two times with any words that refer to sacrifice for certain--Num 4:16 an 29:6. It is used by itself in Daniel and assumed to mean daily sacrifice on the very thin evidence of the two usages in Numbers. The word for sacrifice, zebach, is used by Daniel only one time, and...

    2300 Evening-mornings of Daniel 8

    and please note that every use of tamid is NOT with the word sacrifice. It is a VERY common word used with many different words. samy

    2300 Evening-mornings of Daniel 8

    I believe in a six literal day creation and an old earth. Hebrew lexicons do not include the word sacrifice except by way of association. The word for sacrifice is used by Daniel in other places, but not here. I'll have to look them up for you. I just returned from being in the hospital and out...

    2300 Evening-mornings of Daniel 8

    Sorry coop, but the angel Gabriel said that the vision spoke of the time of the end, not the time of Antiochus, and the 2300 spoke evening-mornings spoke of many days (not years). samy

    7th trump!

    The rider on the white horse carries the wrong weapon, a bow. He is not Christ. Christ carries only the two edged sword, the word of God. But the rider is moving righteousness forward (white horse). Simply the hermaneutic of Revelation and colors of horses in prophetic passages throughout...
