    How close is the Seven Year Tribulation?

    Shalom, veteran. According to YOUR take, you mean. You're right about the New Covenant. That's why that covenant does not apply. However, you are QUITE wrong about the Davidic Covenant. That agreement between God and David and David's sons as kings is intact and is PRECISELY what Yeshua`s...

    How close is the Seven Year Tribulation?

    Shalom, terry. No, neither one of you is correct. The covenant "confirmed with many for one seven" is the DAVIDIC COVENANT as noted in 2 Samu'el 7:8-17 and 23:5 and described in Psalm 89: 2 Samuel 7:8-17 8 Now therefore so shalt thou say unto my servant David, Thus saith the Lord of hosts, I...

    When Raptured, are we there for eternity?

    Shalom, romans7. "Yesha`yahu" is the Hebrew name that is frequently BOTCHED when one says, "Isaiah!" How many Christians know that the "-iah" at the end of his name is the first two letters "YaH" of the Tetragrammaton or God's Name (YHWH)?! The name MEANS something! It means "Salvation of...

    We Know When the Tribulation Takes Place

    Shalom, rjp34652. The tribulation (Greek: thlipsis = "pressure; distress") is not limited to a mere 7 years nor is the "Great Tribulation" limited to 3.5 years. The tribulation has been going on since 66 A.D. and will continue until the Master Yeshua` the Messiah returns. It is NOT linked to...

    How close is the Seven Year Tribulation?

    Shalom, dragonfly. The latest "gap" in the 70 sevens of Gavri'el's prophecy shared with Dani'el was IN THE MIDDLE OF THE 70TH SEVEN! After Yeshua`s "ministry" of 3.5 years (actually, His offer of the Kingdom and Himself as its King), HE pronounced them "desolate" (Matthew 23:37-39)! (And, for...

    When Raptured, are we there for eternity?

    Shalom, veteran. Sorry, but that's not biblically correct, either! Yochahan's record in John 5:28-29 is only a generalization of the two resurrections because Yeshua` will be the source of BOTH resurrections! However, if you will carefully look at the verses, it does NOT say that the two...

    How close is the Seven Year Tribulation?

    Shalom, JLB. What would be the point in showing you more Scripture when you don't honor the ones we are talking about now?! When you won't honestly investigate the Greek texts behind Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21, you are proving that you don't honor these Scriptures. I don't care WHAT the...

    Mitt Romney

    Shalom, teleiosis. Right you are on all accounts. Two fronts on haSatan's assault on the advance of God's righteousness freely given and imputed to those who would come to Him. It seems to me that the crux of the matter is this: Which front has a greater chance of success in our times...

    Mitt Romney

    Shalom, kaoticprofit. It's hard NOT to be too negative about THIS economy in which we're barely treading water! Romney is definitely the lesser of two evils, regardless what you think about him or his religious views. I'd rather have someone in office who believes that he must do good deeds to...

    How Many Antichrist Objects in 1 John 2:18?

    Shalom, veteran. What is it with you?! Is it vanity or stubbornness that won't allow you ever to be wrong?! YOU WERE WRONG THIS TIME, and you STILL have to come up with some lame excuse how "you're really right" in some ridiculous manner! And, in doing so, you paint yourself into a corner...

    How Many Antichrist Objects in 1 John 2:18?

    Shalom, veteran. LOL! Regarding Revelation 9:19, that verse is about the HORSEMEN, not the locusts! The locusts' description ends in verse 12! Revelation 9:1-21 1 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit...

    Prophesy: The Whore of Babylon is ISIS "THE STATUE OF LIBERTY."

    Shalom, BibleScribe. Sorry this is a tad bit late, but ... Ironically, the McDonalds worker may not have been so foolish; he/she may have been an amateur COLLECTOR and realized the true value of such a forgery! Something like that in a few years time may be worth a considerable amount of REAL...

    How Many Antichrist Objects in 1 John 2:18?

    Shabbat shalom, veteran. But, you're not being careful as to the details! Was "Satan" said to be that "old serpent," or was that "old serpent" said to be "Satan?" I'm not deceived; I know that the "original snake" is related to "haSatan"; HOWEVER, why did the authors, Yeshua` and Yochanan...

    What prophesy are we looking for next?

    Shabbat shalom, xBluxTunicx82. You have WAY TOO MUCH analogous thinking. Why didn't the author SAY "high places, governments, seats of power, kingdoms, nations, ..., individual person, spirit, or body of the Church" if that was what he REALLY MEANT?! If all these were representative of...

    Mark of the Beast

    Shalom, xBluXTunicx82. I'm sorry, but that's just crazy talk. There is NO SUCH THING as the "righteous seed of Adam!" And, as far as the "descendants of Cain" are concerned, they were all destroyed in the Flood of Noach's time! While there is no doubt of there being haSatan, the Enemy, and...

    What prophesy are we looking for next?

    Shalom, veteran. I, too, believe in one Gospel; however, what is "preached" today is NOT the Gospel that the Messiah Yeshua` or the Apostle Paul "heralded!" It is a mere portion of all of the good news that is recorded in Isaiah and in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John (as well as other places in...

    How close is the Seven Year Tribulation?

    Shalom, JLB. Sorry, but that's not quite true. First, no matter WHAT the disciples ASKED, Yeshua` gave them what they NEEDED in His answer! He answered their questions, but He also supplied things they didn't know to ask! As you quoted above, verses 4-6 shows us that Yeshua` gave them some...

    How close is the Seven Year Tribulation?

    Shalom, veteran. To my statement, "The “’travail with child’ idea” is NOT one of them within this chapter!" you wrote... You're reaching to equate these two passages! Look at the WHOLE context for placement in Yeshua`s lifetime: Luke 23:27-32 27 And there followed him a great...

    When Raptured, are we there for eternity?

    Shalom, Warrior. Yes, this is a literal 1000-year period. That's what Yochanan and Kefa (John and Peter) said, and there's no justifiable reason to believe otherwise. Three things here. First, we won't leave the vicinity of the earth when we are "raptured." It is a MASS TRANSIT SYSTEM to get...

    Receiving The Revelation 16:15 Scripture

    Shabbat shalom, veteran. But, IN HIS BRIGHT PRESENCE, "one day" - that "last day" - will endure for a THOUSAND YEARS! And, the Fire doesn't occur at the BEGINNING of that Day; it occurs at the END of that Day! Furthermore, as you just quoted, the resurrection is at the BEGINNING of that Day...
