    Reason for The Crusades explained

    I think you are taking a lot of things out of context. I agree with you about joining some random army and going of to war against neighbors over some political squabble. Or mining rights. Or land/boundary disputes and theft. But there were Christian mains in the past, with genuine...

    The Current War against Iran and Support for Israel is based on Catholic Counter Reformation Theology.

    Ibelieve the US is focused on defending Israel because of eschatology. The cry coming the evangelical and charismatic/pentecostal majority in America is fairly strident. People are being called racist and homophobic if they are calling for tougher immigration policies and are anti-alphabet and...

    Apostle Paul's Temple of God

    I don't care. A temple may be built, or not. They may even get around to killing a few sheep. But whatever they do, it isn't because they are fulfilling prophecy. And it certainly isn't fulfilling 2Thess2. Why? Because the temple Paul was talking about belongs to God. It's the temple of...

    Apostle Paul's Temple of God

    Conjecture and assumption. There is not one specific text in all scripture stating what you claim. You are relying on your own understanding, not revelation. Where the Bible explicitly states the church or the individual as the temple of God, you deny, deny, deny. The only time where Paul...

    Those military commanders aren't coming up with that idea in a vacuum. Hegseth. As radical a Catholic militant as you would ever find. Seen his tattoos? He's a believer. But not in anything I've read in scripture. If the above link isn't all the evidence you need of a burgeoning...

    Allow me to quell the confusion. Big thumbs and too many bent fingers. The word intended was not poem, as you likely realized, but own.

    Should we as Christians support the State of Israel ?

    OP... should we as Christians support the state of Israel? In what capacity? And from what motive? And from what sector of the community? And for what purpose?

    The Current War against Iran and Support for Israel is based on Catholic Counter Reformation Theology.

    All of God's promises are conditional on repentance. That applied to the Jews of the first century who joined the church began by Christ, and it applies to the Jews of today who still reject Christ, deny the Son, and therefore deny the Father, becoming an antichrist. “22 Who is a liar but he...

    Not for the church to decide and influence the state to intervene.

    I want to add to the above in light of recent revelations. Some of you may be aware of this and quietly going about your business not wanting to make waves. What I'm going to say is going to ruffle many feathers. Your military (in the US) is being told by their commanders that they are...

    God's promises were conditional. Israel never met those conditions.

    Apostle Paul's Temple of God

    You are accusing me of lying by saying Paul affirmed there was to be no third temple? Where did I say that? What I am saying is that you have no foundation for creating an entire thesis on the belief that there is going to be one. Particularly when the temple Paul mentioned is the temple of...

    The current support for Israel is perplexing. Religion in Israel is held by a minority. Rabbis do not learn their craft from Torah. The text book for Rabbis even from the time of Jesus was not Torah based. Today's "Judaism" is the modern Phariseeism. Any Christian support for them is highly...

    Ribera and Bellarmine both taught of a future physical temple in Jerusalem with am antichrist individual occupying. Today you are right, not so much. But they don't have to. The job is done. Protestant historicism, identifying the papacy as the Antichrist and the mark of the beast being the...

    Apostle Paul's Temple of God

    Also early in the fourth century Cyril of Jerusalem (318-386 A. D.)had this to say: “But this aforesaid Antichrist is to come when the times of the Roman Empire shall have been fulfilled, and the end of the world is drawing near. There shall rise up together ten kings of the Romans, reigning in...

    Apostle Paul's Temple of God

    Who said anything about a false Messiah? The man of sin is just that. The personification of lawlessness, the mystery of iniquity. The fulfillment of Daniel 7's little horn who thinks to change times and laws. God's laws. As for 2 Thess. 2:4... 1. Now we beseech you brethren, by the...

    Do you like, dislike, or are neutral on Israel?

    You have summed up my potential response fairly well. However, I would take it a step or two further. Most people on this forum know me as a Seventh Day Adventist. And most of them are aware of adventist eschatology, and for those who aren't, allow me to enlighten them. In 1864 the church was...

    @Davy “3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the...
