Who he is, is very simply stated in the passage. He is the anti-christ, the prince of the people who destroyed Jerusalem in 70 AD.

Nancy, When my wife died, I experienced pain a thousand times worse than I ever imagined could even be possible. That is when I needed my Rock and my Refuge to rely upon. Instead of concentrating on present circumstance, I redirected my focus upon the past 77 years, remembering how He has...

The Bible is to be taken literally unless it specifically reveals otherwise within the context. But I rely upon the promise of the Holy Spirit who has promised to lead us into all truth. It has been working rather well so far.

I am satisfied that the Scripture declares the 70th week as a 7 year period, as well as the Book of Revelation which reiterates the 7 years if the Tribulation over and over.

It is merely a matter of adding to Scripture, something that is not there. And since the most distant visible star is 9 billion lightyears away . . .

You are not referring to creationists, but young-earth advocates, who don't tend to be overly intelligent.

I agree. Whatever happened before Eden is not stated, but sometime after God created the heavens and the earth Gen 1.1, the earth became formless and empty, suggesting a vast judgment upon the earth. But considering the all buried dinos, along with the vast oil reserves in the earth, it must...

Which is more important? The earth or the people who live on it?? The first atomic attacks might have destroyed the earth, but they also brought a war to an abrupt end, saving thousands of lives.

Well that sometimes depends upon one's perspective. The atomic bomb for instance. Whether it's good or bad, depends upon whether you are the giver or receiver. :-)

What a novel idea! IMO, a lot of good things have happened in the last 100 years, and good things don't come from Satan!! "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness neither shadow of turning." James 1

Well, we are not in Babel, although it sometimes seems like it. When someone declares Revelation to be merely a symbolic book, has never actually read the Book. Sure Revelation, uses symbolism as it reflects harmony with the prophecies given to Daniel. When you see obvious symbolism being...

Why does it need to "symbolize" anything ? Seems to me that it is merely a statement of fact, much like happened in Egypt during the ten plagues.

Gasp! You would never want to accept the plain word of Scripture as it is written!! Duh!

I never suggested that you were trying to trick me. I just said what you have posted makes no sense to me. You say that Isaiah's prophecy has already taken place in the past. When was Israel ever a third party with Egypt and Assyria?? And when did the Lord ever say “Blessed is Egypt My...

Anthony, At Pentecost, He sent a number of Holy Spirits to baptize with fire those who were gathered together that day. What is this prophecy about Egypt I’m certain it’s already been fulfilled. The Isaiah prophecy contains a whole lot of promises which have never been fulfilled. You didn't...

Okay Anthony, I'm not all that bright, and lack the mental dexterity to understand what you are saying. First of all, you say this happened in 70 AD, and then you say it didn't happen, that it was only figurative. So it didn't happen. The only Scripture reference mentioned was from Isaiah, a...

I read Hislop's book many years ago, and thought it was a bit hokey, but I have a VERY high regard for Philip Schaff, the translator of the Early Church Fathers, etal. Maybe I should read it again.

It has only been hours since I heard a sermon that declared that Chernobyl translated into English is Wormwood. I don't know enough about it to have formed an opinion.

You previously said that all this stuff happened in 70 AD. And now you say He is still coming!?? When you finally figure out whether He has already come, or is still coming, let us know.

Anthony sez >> "This took place in 70ad" Really! ?? "The Son of man came in a cloud with power and great glory." ?? Is this something you witnessed personally, or did someone tell this to you?? Giggle!
