    Daniel 9:24-27

    My 2 cents, I think "the Message" says it best and it has nothing to do with speed. Dan. 9:27 - "Then for one seven, he will forge many and strong alliances, but halfway through the seven he will banish worship and prayers. At the place of worship, a desecrating obscenity will be set up and...

    Breaking down the seven churches

    Then the seven churches are no mystery! Correct, the answer to the mystery was supplied in Rev. 1:20.

    Ez. 40-44

    Hi Retro: I said, “Could at some point a third millennial temple be built to these specs? Absolutely, but this does explain the animal sacrifices and sin offerings described there as being for the second temple as they will have no place in the millennium. Zerubbabel was the high priest who was...

    Ez. 40-44

    Many people believe that the temple described in Ez. 40-44 is a prophetic picture of a third temple to be built in Jerusalem at the beginning of the millennium. Let’s face it, God isn’t going to give them plans for a third temple before a second one was built. This is the design for their second...

    Sabbath-Keeping

    Hi Brakelite, Your words: "It was God that sanctified, and made holy the 7th day. Nowhere in all of scripture is there any record of God making the 7th day 'unholy', or 'unsanctified'. The commandment is for man to keep it that way. It is the day that is still holy. It is the day that is still...

    Pop-Up Ads

    Most of the ads I've encountered are in a new window that has either a 15 or 30 second countdown before you can x out of it and I've run across two that automatically bring you to another page altogether.

    Pop-Up Ads

    What's with all the annoying pop-up ads lately? They are an aggravation and one of the reasons I don't use facebook. I appreciate the desire to add to your income but there has to be a better way, imo. I'm sure I'm not alone in this.

    Daniel 9:24-27

    Hi Retro, Your words: "However, you have a “gap,” too. You just place it between the 69th Seven and the 70th Seven. The problem is this: How does one justify THAT “gap?" The preterists are right when they point out that there’s no Scriptural reason for having a gap between those two Sevens...

    The Rapture placement of Revelation 16:15 revealed

    Hi Bold, Your words: “I'm a foundation guy. I've poured 1000's of yards of concrete as a profession. It is true, I do not have a critical eye for the window dressings, however, I wouldn't build a house on a foundation that isn't going to last. The foundation is what I see as critical.” I can...

    End times - Isaac Newton was closest

    Hi Born Again, Your words: “Interesting. I'm not sure what to say other than, I guess we will see, wont we. I guess the anti-Christ thing has always baffled me. I mean, true Christians will know better and blow him off. And those who buy into it, well, they got theirs coming, don't they. Do you...

    Daniel 9:24-27

    Hi Retro, I thought I made my point pretty clear in the OP, but I guess not. Let's take a second look: "Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in...

    The Abomination of Desolation

    Your words: "I'm not interested in "debating" or opinions; I'm interested in pursuing truth. Try answering the imperatives in the post rather than protecting your perceived status." I have no "status" to protect. If you're not willing to discuss alternatives to your viewpoint, why bother? You...

    Daniel 9:24-27

    Hi S4C, Your words: "In the prevailing view of Bible prophecy, the well known passage in Daniel chapter 9 concerning the 70 weeks of Daniel is commonly interpreted to put forth the proposition that the Antichrist will make a 7-year treaty with the Jewish people. But is this proposition actually...

    The Abomination of Desolation

    Hi S4C, I don't mind debating with you but I do ask that you stay on point. If you want to go off on some tirade that has nothing to do with the OP, then start you own OP. You went in multiple directions on things that were never mentioned or implied in my post just because you assume that I...

    The Abomination of Desolation

    What is it? Who is it? These are some of the questions we ask when we try to determine exactly what this is. Based on my studies, I think the only thing it can be is a statue/image of the “man” who will be known, in Christian circles as the anti-Christ. Let’s see what the bible has to say about...

    Daniel 9:24-27

    If you really want to understand Dan. 9:24-27 then one must drop all their metaphorical thinking, mystical whimsies and thoughts like “well, in a manner of speaking…” and just deal with the cold, hard facts. Dan. 9:24-27: (words in parenthesis mine) 24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy...

    The Rapture placement of Revelation 16:15 revealed

    Hi Bold, Your words: “Yes I wish I could respond without loads of interruptions and in solitude, but that is not the case, I had intended to state more that just an angel guiding John through the revelation. I'm sure you will find grammatical errors and poor sentence structure. I am sorry for...

    Sucky Christians

    Hi KingJ, I think you're putting too high of a standard on what it means to act as a christian. It does NOT mean that we are to let the world roll over us or open ourselves to abuse or not to fight back when we are wronged. You made this statement: "Jesus says we must give the thief what he...

    Sucky Christians

    Hi KingJ, I think you're being a little hard on yourself. While an inspection of our inner self is a good thing, if we concentrate on where we miss the mark without remembering how far Christ has brought us, it doesn't do us any good. Just the fact that you're even aware of your short comings...

    The Rapture placement of Revelation 16:15 revealed

    Hi Bold, I’m kind of a stickler for detail and when you say (the highlighted part below), I just needed to verify. So let’s start with the “walk through”. Your words from post #1: “Throughout the book of Revelation the angels are showing John the revelation and walking him through it, until you...
