o Satan and his angels were cast out of heaven, and they dwell among us (Isaiah 14:12, Ezekiel 28:17, Revelation 12:7-9, Luke 10:18, 1Peter 5:8-9). o There are guardian angels on earth as well to protect us from them (Psalm 91:11-12, Matthew 18:10, Daniel 6:22, Acts 12:7).

<Out of what land do you believe that beast will rise?> I assume the beast will go up the same path he took going down, somewhere in the Middle East. This will occur after his 1000-years incarceration (Revelation 20:2).

IMO: This holy city new Jerusalem appears in the new heaves and earth. "Prepared as a bride" indicates "pure and beautiful." Sin corrupts the sinner and everything associated with the sinner, hence this entire universe must first be disposed, then recreated, and repopulated. This is analogous...

<you think we are in Daniel's 70th week?> I think that's what happens in the 70th week

o Satan is a Cherub. o. Satan's angels followed him in a rebellion in heaven. o. They were all exiled to earth. o. They dwell among us.

Aunty Jane asked: <Why wasn't it God's bosom?> God is invisible, hard to find.

ewq1938 noted: <Those ppl are made immortal before being taken there> o I suppose they can fly too, so they can hover in the sky.. o And they do not need oxygen (no oxygen in upper atmosphere). o And they are immune to cosmic radiation (oxygen atmosphere shields us from this). o How about...

Ancorite noted: <But it was the original Jewish disciples of Jesus who evangelized gentiles as they spread the gospel to all nations, as Jesus commanded them to do> Jesus commanded his disciples not to go to the Gentiles (Matthew 10:5).

ewq1938 noted: <Not to "heaven" but to the clouds of Earth known as the 1st heaven but not the heaven where God is> There is not any oxygen there in the upper atmosphere, will the people have oxygen masks?

David in N.J. noted: <The earth does not move.> The earth rotates about its axis and also revolves around the sun. <With today's advanced magnification, the ship is brought back into sight.> The earth is solid. A ship sailing across an ocean is likely to sink below the horizon at some point.

David in NJ suggested: >men from ancient times (though very intellectual) attempting to know based on limited observance that can and does have erroneous conclusions> Claiming "erroneous conclusions" without supporting facts is begging the question.

EWQ1938 noted: <God the Father is not invisible since many have seen him.> My Bible says God is invisible (Colossians 1:15, 1Timothy 1:17, Hebrews 11:27).

Anchorage explained: <By the 5th century B.C., Greek thinkers like Pythagoras, Empedocles, and Anaxagoras proposed a spherical Earth.> IMO: There was no concept of a ball-shaped planet earth in early times. >Aristotle later supported this with evidence, such as the curved shadow of Earth on...

IMO: God is invisible (Colossians 1:15), so there is no representation of God the Father in the Temple. Likewise for the Spirit of God.

IMO: "Time no longer" (Revelation 10:6) = "no further delay." "Bema" according to one webpage is Hebrew בימה = "a raised platform or pulpit where the Torah scroll is placed and read during synagogue services."

<Do the ships sailing out to sea still 'sink' below the horizon as they follow the supposed 'curve?> The earth is spherical, hence a ship,.moving away from a viewer, in any direction, will reduce what is seen by the viewer.

David in New Jersey noted: >Moses knew about planet earth when he wrote Genesis.> "Earth" in Genesis 1:1 is Hebrew ארץ (Arets) = "land." There was no no concept of planet earth in the distant past. Ships sailing out to sea would sink below the horizon, which I imagine would suggest a curved...

For example: "And the LORD said unto him, 'Go through the city, through Jerusalem, and put a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that groan over all the abominations that are committed in it.'"(Ezekiel 9:4). I would view "put a mark"as "make note of." I suppose it could mean a...
