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

    Ok, I think we are in agreement that people who currently believe, both Jew and Gentile, their Sun never goes down. Your statement about after the remnant are saved applies to everyone who becomes a believer right now and in the future, not just the future. It’s a current reality, the new...

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

    Tapp is the only one who might possibly suggest that the sun represents joy, no scriptural references are given for that and it would differ from the other commentaries that suggest the sun is Messiah or Jehovah’s light. Really, I think Tapp is just saying that when the sun doesn’t go down there...

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

    I agree somewhat with the commentaries but there are some glaring issues that stick out like a sore thumb. Tapp equates joy with the sun and concludes that when the sun no longer goes down we will have habitual cheerfulness. An explanation of why we currently have joy when the sun is up and...

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

    Ok, let’s substitute the word Israel for sun and moon in Isaiah 60:20, keeping in mind that it’s direct intended audience is Israel. Isaiah 60:20(KJV) Thy sun shall no more go down; neither shall thy moon withdraw itself: for the LORD shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy...

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

    Ok, is this what you’re arguing? “Thy sun shall no more go down; neither shall thy moon withdraw itself”, are you says this means that whatever the sun an moon represent in new Jerusalem, that figurative sun and moon are currently going down and withdrawing themselves but they won’t do that...

    No, that verse is not meant to be read as something that could never happen, obviously it happens when new heaven new earth are realized. Where else does the Bible describe something being impossible then go on to describe that thing as happening (literal or not) but we interpret the scriptures...

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

    Yes, we all should be able to come to the conclusion that these verses are not to be taken literally. So for starters the seed in Jeremiah 31:36 should be looked at in conjunction with Galatians 3:16 where seed, singular, is Christ. Since Jesus paid for our sins, which is eternal separation from...

    Isaiah 60:20 Thy sun shall no more go down; neither shall thy moon withdraw itself: for the LORD shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended. That is not obeying Genesis 1:14, to divide the day from the night. The sun has not disobey the Genesis 1:14...

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

    Right, things will be different in NHNE, the sun and moon will not be obeying the ordinances in Genesis 1:14. Jeremiah 31:36 says if those ordinances depart from before me, saith the LORD, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me for ever. Do you think the...

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

    Are you suggesting that in Genesis 1:14, this “And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven” is an ordinance but this “to divide the day from the night and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years” is not an ordinance? Ordinance <2706> choq Statute...

    What about the promises made in Jeremiah 31:35-36? Jeremiah 31:35 Thus saith the LORD, which giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; The LORD of hosts is his name: 36 If those...

    The only promises made to Israel isn’t just the dirt, is it? What about being ruled with a rod of iron, Israel isn’t going to be ruled with the rod of iron, it’s the Gentile nations. Wouldn’t it be beneficial to escape the rod of iron by converting to be a Jew right now?

    Would you encourage believers to become Israel believers so they can receive the promises made to Israel? Are you planning on becoming a Jew yourself so you can get the icing on the cake of salvation?

    Update on World System.

    In the book of Daniel, Daniel was a government official in the one world government of Babylon at that time. Daniel certainly didn’t agree with Nebuchadnezzar but nevertheless he remained a government official. Could this be a foreshadow and there could very well be a “Daniel” in the upcoming...

    Update on World System.

    Ok, here’s the thing I’m looking at, Romans 13:1-3 says we shouldn’t resist government, we should be subject to government. If we interpret either beast in Revelation 13 as government or possibly a dictator, we should still be subject to the beast according to Romans 13. I know we aren’t to obey...

    Update on World System.

    What is your view on Romans 13:1-3? Let’s say, for example, digital currency is mandated by the end of this year by our government, should we resist it? There’s nothing inherently wrong with digital currency itself, so I would think we should not resist its implementation. What do you think...

    Time of the End and Knowledge shall be Increased.

    Sure, when the Catholic Church was the only Church I suppose a person could make those kind of arguments but currently there are thousands of individual churches and in those churches where two or three are gathered, Christ is there. Should we constantly want to divide churches? You quote...

    Time of the End and Knowledge shall be Increased.

    Well, I haven’t physically visited very many churches so I can’t say for absolute certainty without trusting others who have. I can look at statements of faith over the internet but they don’t really tell me what’s going on. I have gone to a few churches where their statements of faith look good...

    Time of the End and Knowledge shall be Increased.

    What is your source of information on the condition of what’s happening in the church today? Is it only from the Bible or is it secular? If the church has fallen away then the information from the fallen away church itself is secular.

    Time of the End and Knowledge shall be Increased.

    Not true. Jesus gives us the example of how to determine if something is fulfilled or not in Luke 7:20-22, we can’t use scripture alone for this. We are to see and hear what is literally happening and compare that to the scriptures in order to determine what’s being fulfilled. Jesus didn’t tell...
