    Will the real "Antichrist" please stand up?

    Shalom, Jack; "Peace" to you. Let me help you with that... John 5:28-29 28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, 29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil...

    Will the real "Antichrist" please stand up?

    Shalom, Jack. First, you quoted me saying, And said, Do let's try! There is a major difference between the "Kingdom of God" and the "Kingdom of Christ." God's Kingdom, the "divine Kingdom," as you call it, is NOT about control of the universe or even the world. His control over His Creation...

    Will the real "Antichrist" please stand up?

    Shalom, Jack. Sorry, but the "Kingdom of Christ" or the "Messiah's Kingdom" is NOT present in the "now" AT ALL! We can consider ourselves subjects for His Kingdom AHEAD OF TIME because we recognize that He WILL BE our King in the not-too-distant future, but IT IS NOT HERE, YET because HE IS NOT...

    Will the real "Antichrist" please stand up?

    Shalom, Floyd. Yes, but qualified somewhat. The "Sheep and Goat Judgment" is a LOCAL judgment against the NATIONS (not individuals) that come against Isra'el. It will be a WAR TRIBUNAL by the new King of Isra'el!

    Will the real "Antichrist" please stand up?

    Shalom, Jun2u. First of all, word studies may not be "gospel," as you call it, but neither is the pseudo-theology of suggesting that allegorical interpretation is the correct way to interpret Scripture, ESPECIALLY when it comes to prophetic Scripture! Second, look, people like Aharown (Aaron)...

    Will the real "Antichrist" please stand up?

    Shalom, brakelite. Okay. I think that it's a dangerous proposition to suggest a fulfilled prophecy can be fulfilled AGAIN in some more nebulous way, but believe what you will. We'll just have to agree to disagree. Actually, I've NEVER seen a prophecy have more than a single fulfillment, and you...

    Will the real "Antichrist" please stand up?

    Shalom, brakelite. Time to put on the brake lights! The Scriptures that you have quoted are NOT universal statements! They were specifically for those times in which they were written! For instance, Yirmeyahu (Jeremiah), the "Weeping Prophet," was the prophet who personally SAW the captivity...

    The Cleansing of the Sanctuary & The 70 Weeks of Daniel

    Shabbat shalom, DaDad. And, when are YOU going to understand that there is NOTHING about "shiviym" (NOT "shibiym") that is an "irregular masculine gender!" Gender in Hebrew adjectives (such as numbers) must have the same gender as the words which they modify! IF the word is different from one...

    Will the real "Antichrist" please stand up?

    Shabbat shalom, Floyd. Right. That's very possible. The first Temple (in the "trib") will be a human attempt by Zionists, and even the Orthodox Jews recognize that the Messiah is the One to construct the Temple for the Millennium.

    Will the real "Antichrist" please stand up?

    Shabbat shalom, brakelite. Well, you may believe that "anti-" means "in the place of," if you wish, but that's not how it is used in this word. Consider again the verses that actually USE the word "antichristos" or "antichristoi"; here they are in context: 1 John 2:18-23 18 Little children, it...

    Let God be true and every man a liar - Rom 3:4

    Shalom, DaDad. The Scriptures don't say what YOU say they say. You've made up some wild ideas BASED on the Scriptures without actually LISTENING to them! Don't rely on gematria and cabalistic interpretations of the Scriptures! They will ONLY lead you to a DEAD END! Psalm 24 doesn't have...

    Will the real "Antichrist" please stand up?

    Shalom, Jack (aka shturt678). Then you should also know that 2 Thessalonians 2:4 is talking about something different than most Christians understand it. 2 Thessalonians 2:1-14 2:1 But in connection with the coming of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah and our gathering together to meet him, we ask...

    Let God be true and every man a liar - Rom 3:4

    Shalom, DaDad. Well, only since you asked, Scripture is foremost in precedence, to be followed by ACCURATE historical records. Now, you tell me: How do you live with yourself when you READ SO MUCH INTO the Scriptures instead of letting the Scriptures SPEAK TO YOU?! This little quotation from...

    Will the real "Antichrist" please stand up?

    Shalom, all. Boy! When the cat's away,...! This topic is NOT to be about Revelation! In my opinion, Revelation should be the LAST place we go until we have other facts down pat! Just to reiterate and get this thread back on track, ... Then, I said,... To which, Enoch2010 wisely responded...

    Defending Amillennialism

    Shabbat shalom, Wormwood. No "rabbits," brother, and no "secret decoder rings," either. It's really quite simple: The disciples of Yeshua` were first and foremost HEBREWS! (Some folks say "JEWS," although that's not entirely accurate.) They were children of Avraham, Yitschaq, and Ya`aqov -...

    Do You Believe That We Are In A Covenant Relationship With God

    Shabbat shalom, Rocky Wiley Nonsense. One should LEARN Hebrew before you make JUDGMENTS about the Hebrew of the Bible! Brother Febus makes assumptions that one should not make. For instance, to say "the seventy weeks of Daniel portraying 490 years of Jewish history culminating in the...

    Defending Amillennialism

    Shalom, Wormwood Um, YES, Wormwood! Thank you, Floyd, but that is only part of the equation. There are also many internal clues to the fact; i.e. consider the Hebraisms that can be found throughout the NT. Not only were they a tell-tale sign of Jewish thinking, they also make little sense...

    Defending Amillennialism

    Shabbat shalom, Wormwood. Regarding a "symbolic understanding of the 1000 years," that they represent "a long time," the argument is insufficient. The "literal" view of the Scriptures is actually the historical/grammatical interpretation of the Scriptures. I've said it before, but I'm probably...

    Let God be true and every man a liar - Rom 3:4

    Shalom, DaDad. I'm sorry, but your logic TOTALLY escapes me. What does Psalm 24 have to do with the "dictate from God" or the "going forth of His word?" Psalm 24:1-10 1 The earth is the LORD'S and the fulness thereof, the world and those who dwell therein; 2 for he has founded it upon the...

    America in the Bible

    Shalom, Eric. Not so, brother. First of all, there's NO SUCH THING AS A PERMANENT SOLAR ECLIPSE! Do you realize the complexity of such a scenario?! It's NOT physically possible! The orbits are not exact; they are elliptical and oblique! Futhermore, the orbits of the earth around the sun and the...
