    Typical questions people ask about the Olivet Discourse.

    No, Revelation 16:15 is referring to persons who turn to Jesus after the rapture, to remain faithful to Him. Revelation 16:15 is near the end of the great tribulation, and Jesus's sudden appearance as the sign of the Son of man in heaven will be unexpected. The sudden appearance of the sign of...

    Typical questions people ask about the Olivet Discourse.

    Davy, you have made the same mistake as others holding the post-trib view of the rapture. The gathering of the elect in Matthew 24:31 is not referring to the rapture, but to the bringing back of all the scattered house of Israel from the nations back into the land of Israel. See my...

    Typical questions people ask about the Olivet Discourse.

    Davy, there are 7 years verses 9-10 between Ezekiel 39:4 and Ezekiel 17-20. The birds and beasts feast on the dead bodies in both events. But that does not make them the same event. Ezekiel 39:17-20 corresponds to Revelation 19:17-18, the Armageddon event. The gathering of the elect in...

    Typical questions people ask about the Olivet Discourse.

    Davy, it is Ezekiel 39. Gog/Magog event verses 1-6. Then the 7 years, verses 9-10. Then the Armageddon event, verses 17-20. Then in verses 21-29 is Jesus Himself speaking in the text having returned to this earth, His Second Coming. Regarding the rapture, it may happen before the 7...

    Typical questions people ask about the Olivet Discourse.

    Davy, the Gog/Magog event in Ezekiel 38 and Ezekiel 39 is latter days, latter years (Ezekiel 38:8 and Ezekiel 38:16) and will take place 7 years before Jesus returns. When we see those things start to happen, look up, our redemption draws near. Things are really close, since God puts...

    How many great suppers of God are there? Just one or more than one?

    Gog/Magog does not involve all the nations of the world. So all of the military of the world's armies will not be destroyed, nor participate 7 years later, Armageddon involves all nations of the world. Plus, in countries like Russia, there will be a rebuilding effort made of their...

    How many great suppers of God are there? Just one or more than one?

    Why ? Jesus's return trumps everything.

    How many great suppers of God are there? Just one or more than one?

    Read Ezekiel 39:21-29. It is Jesus Himself speaking in the text, having returned to this earth. Work back up through Ezekiel 39 from there. 21 And I will set my glory among the heathen, and all the heathen shall see my judgment that I have executed, and my hand that I have laid upon them...

    How many great suppers of God are there? Just one or more than one?

    The 7 years is the 7 year 70th week of Daniel 9:27. The 7 months is the first 7 months of the 7 years. After which, animals sacrifices will begin again - to initiate the 2300 days of Daniel 8:13-14. 7months (210 days) + 2300 days = 2510 days (the 7 years is 2520 days). A quick building of...

    How many great suppers of God are there? Just one or more than one?

    Don't make it hard, It is easy. Ezekiel 38 and 39 both involve the Gog/Magog event. Ezekiel 38 - addresses the nations that will make up the Gog/Magog force. Ezekiel 39 - addresses what will happen following the Gog/Magog event, which is... Gog/Magog followed by 7 years in verses 9-10...

    The Seven Last Plagues

    Not 12 crowns, but 7. Revelation 12:3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. In Revelation 12, which has the 7 year 70th week in it, the prophecy of the 7 kings will have been fulfilled...

    He who Scattered Israel, will Gather them

    I was once agnostic as a teenager. Agnostic means not being sure, searching. John never said he was an antichrist. None of the apostles ever said that they were antichrists at one time. No preacher stands in the pulpit delivering a sermon on salvation every calls the unsaved in the pews...

    He who Scattered Israel, will Gather them

    John 12:12-13 is a very important verse to understanding what being the coming Antichrist entails. Jesus is the true King of Israel, who comes in the name of the Lord. But was rejected by his own people. In John 5:43, Jesus alludes to the coming Antichrist. 43 I am come in my Father's...

    He who Scattered Israel, will Gather them

    No. It is accurate though to say all of us at one time were unbelievers in Jesus as our Lord and Savior... and thus unsaved. Take a look at 1John2:18. John sets the criteria of an antichrist. 1. first, they go out from believers in Jesus. i.e. they at one time were Christians. 2...

    He who Scattered Israel, will Gather them

    No. As John described antichrists in 1John2. They are persons who once were Christians who fell away to deny Jesus as the Son of God, and the Father-Son relationship. An example would be someone who once was a Christian but departed Jesus to become a muslim. Someone like Yusuf Estes on...

    The Seven Last Plagues

    The 7 heads also are 7 kings. Not 7 kingdoms. 5 fallen, one is, one is yet to come at the time John In Revelation 17 no crowns on the 7 heads. (prophecy about the 7 kings incomplete) In Revelation 12 crowns on the 7 heads. (prophecy about the 7 kings complete) In Revelation 13 no crowns on...

    The (7th) Abomination That Maketh Desolate

    Revelation 10:7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets. In Revelation 11:15, the 7th angel sounds. And in verses 16-19, the reaction in heaven is rejoicing...
