  1. 3 Resurrections

    Do you believe this is...

    Yes, it does do that. As the ancient prophecy in Psalms 68:11related, "The Lord gave the word: the women that publish the tidings are a great host." This fits those women Paul listed in Romans 16, for certain. The Romans 16:20 promise that God would crush Satan under the feet of the believers...
  2. 3 Resurrections

    Do you believe this is...

    Try responding to the single point I made about Satan's destruction from Romans 16:20 to begin with. I can certainly supply more. But I'm not about to dump a dissertation on you all at once. That wouldn't be fair, and nobody reading this can digest all of that proof at one time anyway. God...
  3. 3 Resurrections

    Do you believe this is...

    It took me a while to chew on all the various texts both OT and NT that speak about Satan's destruction and that of his devils and unclean spirits. I was skeptic also for quite some time. But I had to be honest with myself where the scripture proofs were leading, and not to let my former...
  4. 3 Resurrections

    Do you believe this is...

    Just for starters, consider the Romans 16:20 text which I gave above, written around AD 60. Paul gave an encouraging promise to the Roman believers that "...the God of peace shall crush Satan under your feet SHORTLY." Satan only had "a short time" to operate on earth in the first century after...
  5. 3 Resurrections

    Do you believe this is...

    I do. There is scripture proof enough that Satan and his devils were destroyed - which tells us both where and when God accomplished this. But I doubt you would give this scripture proof any consideration. People are rather heavily invested in continuing to have a spiritual enemy to which...
  6. 3 Resurrections

    Do you believe this is...

    There IS Biblical evidence for Satan and the entire demonic realm having been destroyed back in AD 70. As I used to do, you have probably read over these texts numerous times over the years without recognizing these scriptural proofs that the entire Satanic realm was destroyed long ago. It is...
  7. 3 Resurrections

    Do you believe this is...

    God has given this world the opportunity since AD 70 to demonstrate their behavior towards Him without the presence of the Satanic realm anymore to influence them one way or another. The results are that mankind still chooses to disobey God, and shows all kinds of evil which comes out of their...
  8. 3 Resurrections

    Do you believe this is...

    There are those of us who quote the various scriptures telling of the time when Satan was going to be destroyed utterly so that he existed no more. I have given these various texts often before. Romans 16:20 had Paul encouraging the Roman believers that "The God of peace shall crush Satan...

    Why Antiochus Epiphanes IV Is Not The Little Horn - Part I: "in the latter time of their kingdom"

    You are not paying any attention at all to the time-relevant terms surrounding those 10 horns on the Scarlet Beast in Rev. 17. The Scarlet Beast which had those 10 uncrowned horns was not in existence when John was writing, (it once "WAS" but "IS NOT" in John's days). However, for John's...

    Why Antiochus Epiphanes IV Is Not The Little Horn - Part I: "in the latter time of their kingdom"

    None of the Beasts that Revelation or Daniel spoke of survived past AD 70. That is because Christ the "stone" kingdom struck the feet of Daniel's image and the ENTIRE IMAGE was broken to pieces together, with the dust of it blowing away like chaff on the wind. Christ the "stone" kingdom has...
  11. 3 Resurrections

    Do you believe this is...

    There is some really flawed logic proposed in the original post. This Psalms 103:20 verse never claims that ALL angels remained obedient. It is only speaking a command to that particular group of angels who were preserved in faithfulness to God, directing these obedient, angelic mighty ones to...

    Why Antiochus Epiphanes IV Is Not The Little Horn - Part I: "in the latter time of their kingdom"

    The "little horn" of Daniel 7 was found among ten horns on the 4th "dreadful and terrible" beast. But the "little horn" of Daniel 8 was a single horn that arose from one of the "four notable ones" of Alexander's Greek kingdom (which was Daniel's 3rd beast kingdom). These two horns were not...

    LOCUSTS From The Book of JOEL

    I quote this Revelation 1:19 verse all the time. It reconciles perfectly with Revelation 1:3 and the time which was "AT HAND" in the first-century generation for John's prophecies to be fulfilled. "Write the things that ARE" (presently going on in John's days), "and the things thou HAST...

    Why Antiochus Epiphanes IV Is Not The Little Horn - Part I: "in the latter time of their kingdom"

    The term "holy people" was first given to the ancient Israelites when God inaugurated them as a nation back in the wilderness. "For thou art an holy people unto the Lord thy God: the Lord thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of...

    Why Antiochus Epiphanes IV Is Not The Little Horn - Part I: "in the latter time of their kingdom"

    You just don't like the answer I gave. For Antiochus Epiphanes to "destroy the mighty and the holy people" with his army's invasion of Jerusalem and abolish the practice of Judaism was from the Jews' perspective "exceeding great". After all, that was the very purpose of Daniel's visions: to...

    LOCUSTS From The Book of JOEL

    That's good, I'm glad we agree on this point that the planet was not scheduled for annihilation - just renovation. The language of scripture tells us that the "Great Tribulation" has long since passed. Those "days of vengeance" called "the Great Tribulation" and "great distress in the land...

    LOCUSTS From The Book of JOEL

    The basis for what I am writing here is found in John's own language in Revelation 1:3 and 22:10 and elsewhere in the book. John announced that "the time is AT HAND" in his own days for the fulfillment of those prophecies of future events. Just because you cannot see HOW those events were...

    LOCUSTS From The Book of JOEL

    You're right, it IS about both. The line of demarcation between the two is that whatever prophecies which were WRITTEN were fulfilled (Luke 21:22 - "...that all things which are written may be fulfilled"). What prophecies were NOT WRITTEN were "sealed up" in Revelation 10:4 for times...
  19. 3 Resurrections

    LOCUSTS From The Book of JOEL

    There is no promise whatever in scripture for the end of the planet's existence. But there was a promise for the "end of the AGE". Paul testified of this to his 1 Corinthians 10:11 first-century audience concerning the OT scripture stories, "Now all these things happened unto them for...

    LOCUSTS From The Book of JOEL

    LOL, I am reading straight from the text itself. I listen to no one who counters what scripture directly teaches. The text itself mentions those living in Judea and Jerusalem who were warned by Christ to flee from both areas when they saw Jerusalem surrounded by armies, because that was when...
