    23 major reasons to reject the Premil doctrine!

    The understanding of this verse is flawed. The covenant being referenced in this verse was the Covenant given by God to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob over some 240 years with the last of the Covenant given to Jacob just before he left to go down to Egypt. This is in agreement with Exodus 12:40-41...

    23 major reasons to reject the Premil doctrine!

    In your total of 2,000 years add up from my calculation based on your data does not come up with the same answer. You ignored that the flood lasted for around 1 years which you did not take this into account in you calculation. Even when using your data, there is an error of 23 years. I will...

    23 major reasons to reject the Premil doctrine!

    Wow! Using the scriptures, I find that establishing the chronology of all of the seven ages, I get a period of time that is a little longer than the 7,000 years that you are suggesting in your post. In fact, Abraham was born 100 years before the beginning of the third Age when Isaac was born...

    Prayers for New Zealand

    Ah Rocky, the weather in NZ may have started off as a cyclone in the Coral Sea near the Solomon Islands. In the tradition of giving cyclones name it was called Tropical Cyclone Gabrielle, but this weather system no longer fits into the parameters of a cyclone, but has developed into a very deep...

    Prayers for New Zealand

    The line that determines how far south a cyclone will go as determined by the insurance companies for sailing boats, on the east coast of Australia, is that the cruising boats need to be berthed in the port of Burnett Heads or be further south during the cyclone season. The Australian Weather...

    Who is the Antichrist? Let's Put a Name on Him.

    I am surprised that you are critical of someone for not adequately separating verses which do not numerically follow each other. but the gap between the verses was highlighted by a number of "....." to indicate that there were verses let out between the verses indicated. As for when the second...

    Hard day

    Ah, it could simply mean that someone has hay fever where the nose runs all the time just like a faucet does when it cannot be completely turned off. Going outside for a walk may simply just aggravate the hay fever symptoms and the runny nose.

    Prayers for New Zealand

    This is the Gov Weather agency. http://www.bom.gov.au/index.php. The link shows no potential cyclone at the moment in the monsoon trough. What has been happening this year is that the monsoon trough has gone further south and bringing summer rain to the southern areas of NSW and VIC. Their...

    Prayers for New Zealand

    The power of a cyclone can change as it moves south into colder waters. It was a category 3 cyclone but overnight it became a category 2 and lost a lot of its power. It seems that Norfolk Island was spared last night as the cyclone passed over the island.

    Prayers for New Zealand

    How about Norfolk Island which the cyclone is expected to pass right over before it even starts to reach NZ. It's great to pray for the people in NZ but the cyclone will be downgraded before it reaches there. Here is a news item about Norfolk Island...

    The Sheep and the Goats

    That is sad. I believe in the "rapture," i.e., the gathering of the Saints to Christ in the air during his second coming at the end of the Seventh Age just before the final judgement. I do not believe in the pre, mid or pre wrath rapture. I believe that God's wrath is a time of refining the...

    Who is the Antichrist? Let's Put a Name on Him.

    Yes and as scripture confirms, Satan also has other angels, who have also rebelled with him, doing his bidding as well. It is from among these angels that we get the five beasts of Dan 7. One of these fallen angels will become the Antichrist. The antichrist will not be a man, but an angel...

    Who is the Antichrist? Let's Put a Name on Him.

    I am sorry, but the "C if U can see" is applicable to everyone who reads the bible. In Muslim Countries many new Christians are reporting that they have had dreams and visions where they interacted with Christ before they took the step of accepting Christ as their Lord and Saviour. As for your...

    Who is the Antichrist? Let's Put a Name on Him.

    Yes: - Parable of the ten Virgins in Matt 25 The king coming to judge the nations at Armageddon after which all of Israel will be saved. Luk 14:31-32 Rev 19:11-16. The defeat of the armies that have come up out of the Bottomless pit coming to fight Christ, Rev 19:17-21

    Who is the Antichrist? Let's Put a Name on Him.

    I have no problems with Christ visiting the earth a number of times before the "Second Coming," when he will sit on His throne to judge mankind at the very end of the seventh age. The Bible tells us that there will be a number of visitations of Christ before the second coming. Shalom
