    What and when is the rapture part two?

    What did Paul teach us that the rapture is for? When it would occur? There are two main teaching by Paul on the rapture,the first one is: 1.1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest...

    What and when is the rapture? Part one

    Introduction Does the bible really teach us that the rapture is the church being rescued by Jesus from a 7 year tribulation? Actually, the rapture or even a seven year tribulation is not mentioned in the book of Revelation. The book of Revelation shows the church going through a 3 1/2 year...

    Timing of the abomination of desolation

    I don’t think that Nero was the antichrist but the sea beast of revelation. The sea beast and the antichrist are two very different entities. My view is entirely to do with revelation and history as history is what reveals the true interpretation of prophecies and nothing else.

    Timing of the abomination of desolation

    I have no idea how you think Tim debunked anything here I am a PP not a full one and I have never avoided 2 Thess 2:4 it was Nero who set himself up as God by demanding that everyone worship him including Gods temple (the church)

    The many errors and contradictions found in Amillennialism.

    Sorry but I have no idea what your talking about I’m talking about Rev 20:4 4 I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony about Jesus and because of the word of God. They had not...

    The many errors and contradictions found in Amillennialism.

    I agree with you but that’s my point that sometimes there is more behind the verse is isn’t strictly literal.

    The many errors and contradictions found in Amillennialism.

    You are right we have no right to argue against God but my point is that the bible shows us that God doesn’t do things out of character. Thus there must be a different interpretation. For example if this verse is literal then what if a saint was killed by the beast in a different way wouldn’t...

    Then how come it is only them who come back to life and reign?

    Well said "Therefore, God is not going to honor any martyr above another.". How true they wouldn't be more honored than those burned to death or fed to lions

    Timing of the abomination of desolation

    I think that its the revelation of Jesus as in who He is and what He did. Jesus is God and He ushered in the new covenant. I also think that revelation is a book of transition from the old covenant to the new covenant from the earthly Jerusalem to the new Jerusalem. Thus revelation is about...

    Timing of the abomination of desolation

    Thanks Randy I see babylon the great as Jerusalem and this verse below seams to go with the Olivit Discourse Rev 18:4 4 Then I heard another voice from heaven say: “‘Come out of her, my people,’ so that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not receive any of her plagues;

    Timing of the abomination of desolation

    Remember also that Luke and Mark were not of the 12. Its funny because John who was there didn't record an Olivit Discourse in his gospels. I believe that revelation was his Olivit Discourse

    Timing of the abomination of desolation

    Actually none of the gospel writers who recorded the Olivit Discourse were present when Jesus gave it but you are right that the Holy Spirit did inspire them of what to write. Mark 13:3-4 3 As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John and Andrew asked him...

    All people there not globally. It's the same battle. They arrive at Armageddon early in Revelation 16, but the battle doesn't happen until Jesus arrives in Revelation 19. Nope. It's the battle of Armageddon which happens in a valley 66 miles from Jerusalem and the armies there are...

    No that’s not what the text says it says it says “18 so that you may eat the flesh of kings, generals, and the mighty, of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all people, free and slave, great and small.” All people free and slave great and small. It mentions the people in the army...

    Revelation 19:17-21 17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun, who cried in a loud voice to all the birds flying in midair, “Come, gather together for the great supper of God, 18 so that you may eat the flesh of kings, generals, and the mighty, of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all...

    70AD would of still happened Luke 19:41-44 41 As he approached Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it 42 and said, “If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace—but now it is hidden from your eyes. 43 The days will come upon you when your enemies will build an...
