Enoch 111, You are free to believe what you want. I am just expressing an opinion and if you think any of this would lead anyone away from God than perhaps the strength of your faith should be questioned.

How long is the prophetic "that day", the last days, the Day of the Lord, etc.? The answer is most certainly not 24 hrs.

Yes! If it was sincere, accompanied by the willingness to repent from your sins (change course, but it can be a lifelong struggle) and not conceived as just a formality.

Hi Rocky, I do believe in a rapture just not a pre-trib one, I'm pre-wrath.

Danube said, "Paul recieved "grace" but still avoided punishment for overseeing the execution of an early Christian, or avoided the punishment from a sin unto death (also according to Torah observance which Jesus preached) so does that mean that "grace" doesn't or cannot EVER come by your...

Sorry Jay, but I'm not getting your point. Yes the beast is the same as the one out of the sea (which can mean nations) however that doesn't contradict the point I was making.

Hi Rockytop, Actually he will come as a thief only to the unsaved world. We the church will know the signs (Matt. 24 and the 6th seal) when His return is close. 1Thess. 5:4-5 - "But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. 5 Ye are all the children of...

The pre-trib rapture theory is the only rapture theory that exempts believers from the trials and tribulations to come. The others like pre-wrath, puts us right there in the midst of them.

Hi Lady, I suppose I should have added the word "faith" after grace. Eph. 2:8 - "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:" and John 13:34 - "A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one...

That is an assumption not based on scripture. First, how much wisdom would it take to think of seven hills = Rome? I don't think John thought they were all idiots so maybe he is implying somewhere other than Rome. However, the passage uses the term "mountains", not hills. Does it fit the...

Imo, the doctrine of imminence is incorrect and never implied in scripture. If it were than the whole of Matt.24 + is an exercise of misdirection and false signs. Imminence means w/o signs.

"Instead of brimstone or a flood we will have a tribulation. But... The saints will be delivered, likened unto Noah, likened unto Lot. So, be ready for it... Christ could come today!" 1. In neither of those examples did they leave the earth. They were delivered while in the midst of judgement...

Personally, I believe the DofL starts with the 6th seal and continues through to the end of the millennium.

I was correcting that it is satan and NOT the a/c who attacks Jerusalem after the mill. It doesn't imply that he immediately attacks Jerusalem after his release. He is given time to try and deceive the nations. Rev. 20:8

Another way to look at it is to understand that Jesus, was born, lived and died under the law so we wouldn't have to. The disciples at first shared the gospel only with other Jews until Peter's vision in Acts 10. Acts 15 is another good read on the subject. Paul was anointed to spread the gospel...

where exactly does it say that??!!!

Not quite Corel, According to Rev. 19:20 both the beast (a/c) and the false prophet are thrown into the lake of fire. Only satan is bound for a 1000 yrs. until his final release. However, a lot will happen before the earth is again re-purposed. For all we know there could be another 1000 yrs. or...

but not always

Hi Windmill, I don't believe that a day in the bible is always 24hrs. (ex. Dan. 9:24-27). With wisdom from the HS we can learn and contemplate different meanings and still be authentic to God's word. The word "day" in the OT has several possible translations (H3117) as do most words in the...
