    The Rapture will also be a time of mass suicide; the Tribulation a time of mass condemnation (still at rest?)

    That's a great quote in your signature, btw. I'm not sure how old you are, but Israel continues to be a pressure cooker, for conflict - which will inevitably bring about an iron-fisted rule of law. As to how you say "none will witness (it)" I don't know: it doesn't matter so much when the...

    The persecution of the poor is universal, don't just get rich, get generous! (for God's love?)

    Hi there, So I will just declare it straight out, in my nation, I am considered poor. Now what that means, in my nation, is not that I don't have luxury, but that I don't have the same type of luxury as others. I know, crazy, right? The thing is, I have been facing this issue (of being poor)...

    The Coming Global Mandates of Evildoers - Ready for the Harvest?!

    I drank too much fluoridated water, and started projectile vomiting. #justsaying

    If people are thrown into the Lake of Fire for ETERNITY, how then do they appear outside the gates of New Jerusalem in Revelation 22?

    Yes, but you are assuming they get there "immediately". "The end will not come immediately" Luke 21:9 The New Jerusalem comes to Earth, first and then the condemned are cast out, into the Lake of Fire (as Revelation says). Be careful about trying to "rush" the Judgment of God, God reserves...

    If people are thrown into the Lake of Fire for ETERNITY, how then do they appear outside the gates of New Jerusalem in Revelation 22?

    Revelation 20:14 "death and hell were cast into the lake of fire" Revelation 21:4 "no more death" Revelation 22:15 "outside are the dogs, etc." The answer to the question is that those outside the temple, cannot die where they are, but are compelled to leave, one way or the other.

    The Rapture will also be a time of mass suicide; the Tribulation a time of mass condemnation (still at rest?)

    Ok, So there is a little more to the picture, that is unfolding before us, as we head in to the time of Jacob's trouble: typically, we focus on the Rapture and put off thinking about the Tribulation - that's only natural. We can be calm and spirited about the Rapture; spirited and calm about...

    If people are thrown into the Lake of Fire for ETERNITY, how then do they appear outside the gates of New Jerusalem in Revelation 22?

    Left in the wilderness, where there's no place to settle. The question was "how can they be outside, if they are dead?" The answer was, "they can be outside, if God puts them there, dying left dead" That does not mean that they will not be thrown in the fire, just that death dies first. Why do...

    If people are thrown into the Lake of Fire for ETERNITY, how then do they appear outside the gates of New Jerusalem in Revelation 22?

    That's what I said: death is destroyed - so people who were condemned are there, but they can't enter the New Jerusalem. They are left outside.

    If people are thrown into the Lake of Fire for ETERNITY, how then do they appear outside the gates of New Jerusalem in Revelation 22?

    Death is destroyed at that point. Rev 21:4. So they might be there, but they can't live (not on their own).

    the anti-Christ makes a good friend, just not a great one (need to journey ahead, without him?)

    Hi there, So there is a lot of mystery surrounding the anti-Christ - who is he, where will he come from, who can war against him - but in reality, it just boils down to one thing: the anti-Christ is a good friend. I'm not saying his behaviour is welcome, all the time. I'm just saying, he is...

    Leaving My Post

    Two things: one, its not necessary to keep confessing, if your witness is bold; two, you are always going to feeling awful about your sin, why not let the Holy Spirit comfort you?

    Christianity is essentially admitting you are God without admitting you are God

    Yes,I agree: there are many that do the will of God, without realising it. Helping the old lady cross the road? God's will! Donating to charity? God's will! Praying there is a God who hears? God's will.

    Christianity is essentially admitting you are God without admitting you are God

    He must be up to something, this "God"? How could I question it, if He wasn't?

    Bible is finally banned in Utah elementary/middle schools for vulgarity and violence!

    Where in the Bible does it say "please, be delusional"? If someone tells you there is a cliff there, are they trying to manipulate your ideas about gravity? Again, as I said, you may take the Bible out of school, but what do you replace it with?

    The Lord is with me! I can't tell you how relieved I am!

    Wow! So, I finally broke free of the Devil's attacks! It has been a constant battle, but the Lord has finally prevailed! The whole thing pivoted on one thing, that which is faith is faith and that which is death is death. You literally cannot hold on to your life and expect the Devil to ignore...

    What Makes Ex-Christians Think They Once Were Christians?

    I think the thing is, once you backslide, what you want most is to function, the way God intended - like you say "Lord, just let me be" (much like the prodigal son). So if you are just trying to be yourself, doubting yourself can only ever lead you back to God - since He made you, to function...

    Instead, you ought to say, “If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that.” - how James saved me from myself!

    Hi there, This verse literally saved me, from myself. Specifically, I realised that I was making plans constantly, without trusting the Lord at all. Even in meditation, I would try to reach a state that I thought was stable - not what the Lord was giving me, should He be willing. If feel a...

    Library of congress, our provably Christian heritage

    Wow! So complete! I always heard about Christian forefathers in America, but I had no idea it was so universal. You are the envy of the world, America - walk while you have the light!

    Bible is finally banned in Utah elementary/middle schools for vulgarity and violence!

    It's right to want your children, to be theologically strong. Why create a vaccum? What are they replacing it (the Bible) with?

    The Goalposts of Understanding All Move!

    All things happen, to every generation - that's the simplest way to put that it's better to wait (than pretend to know).
