You could say "Chiastic Structure" is recapitulation, however, the Churches, Seals, and Trumpets describe different experiences to which the church would be subject along the prophetic timeline between Christ's first and second coming. As for the entire book, it's definitely one huge chiasm...

According to the entitled Master's Thesis, "A Comparative Study to the Hermeneutical Approaches to the Seven Seals", Historicism says prophecy parallels history with predictions meeting fulfillment along a prophetic timeline that spans from the time of the prophet to the end of time, unlike...

Protestant Historicist, which essentially says, "history parallels prophecy because - unlike the claims of Jesuit Preterism and Jesuit Futurism - God has no blind spots".

If a cop writes a speeder a ticket, but then redeems the speeder from suffering the penalty of a costly fine by paying the fine for him, which has the cop redeemed him from: suffering the penalty of having to pay a costly fine his obligation to obey traffic laws See, as ridiculous as the 2...

Sure they did. The 7 Churches, Seals, and Trumpets are PARALLEL prophecies that span the period between Christ's first coming and His Second Coming: 7 Churches - how the church would be impacted religiously 7 Seals - how the church would be impacted politically 7 Trumpets - how the church would...

I would stick to what's translated from the Textus Receptus Greek (KJV, any non-Catholic or non-Alexandria Family MSS published in any language anywhere in the world before the 20th century) because Young's Literal, NIV, NASB, RSV, etc., are all garbage that's based on the corrupt Critical Text...

Praise God! However unpopular, I keep telling folks that good works are not the means by which we obtain salvation, but the outward evidence that our inward faith in Christ has obtained it. Likewise, the OSAS crowd seems to think that we may by dead faith obtain that which can only be obtained...

You're corrupting Scripture because the law is "holy, just, and good" - it's not a curse. So, to what does "curse of the law" refer? Damnation to them who break it. "Not under the law" doesn't mean "under no obligation to obey it". It means "not under condemnation of the law for having broken...

Yes, obedience to God's law is the outward evidence we're inwardly a "new creature in Christ" and "born again" which is the result of our faith. There are many who claim to be a new creature and are born again, but they refuse to surrender to God's law (Romans 8:7 KJV) and view His commandments...

Hypergrace says: "My sinful heart, salvation doesn't change, just God's opinion of my sin that remains". But, I read lots of verses which teach "a new heart" and "a new creature" and "old things are passed away" and "go and sin no more" and "whoso confesseth and forsaketh (sins) shall have...

I agree it refers to His birth, but could also refer to the birth of Christianity, against which the devil came with violence to destroy as soon as Jesus left for heaven.

If all the elements melt with fervent heat, doesn't that include the elements that make up the atmosphere?

Many Christians claim that since the word “Sabbath” isn't mentioned until Exodus 16, it didn't exist until Exodus 16. Therefore, it only pertains to Jews - nobody else. But, what if the Sabbath could be shown to exist not only before Exodus 16, but all the way back in Eden - thousands of years...

Peter says when Jesus comes as a thief, the elements are going to melt with fervent heat. The only way to interpret this is that when the Second Coming takes place, the Earth is not going to be able to sustain life for 7 more minutes, let alone 7 more years. Don't all of us agree that the One...

At this point, the conspiracies ought to be the lead stories on the nightly news and the "official government report" ought to be relegated to the cubbyhole of "human interest" fluff pieces that directly precede the end of the broadcast lol :watching and waiting:

Amen, especially since it confirms God's almighty power in the Universe while exposing all others as impotent. I think Mrs. Dixon was scored to have less than 6 percent accuracy in her "predictions". Can you imagine Daniel or John or Ezekiel being only that accurate? I'm convinced, was the...

What's the atmosphere made of? That's right: elements, like oxygen, nitrogen, etc. They're going to melt with "fervent heat" which is obviously from the FIRE that will accompany the Lord when He comes as a thief: Isaiah 66:15 KJV [15] For, behold, the Lord will come with FIRE, and with His...

A discussion regarding what is observed by the James Webb telescope and how the Creationists knew what to expect while the atheistic scientific community didn't expect it at all. Big Bang theory isn't supported by what is seen further out in space, and the "explanations" for why it doesn't were...

Before we criticize the Bible for being a book that requires a comparison of "line upon line, precept upon precept, here a little, there a little" in order to understand truth, let's first remember that it was God Almighty Himself Who ordained that very method of study and conclusion, having...

How about you embark on your own research instead of dismissing everything you hear that's contrary to what you think is a well founded position? I can assure you, you've built upon the worst of unstable ground. Even FEMA won't write you a flood policy, and their money appears straight of the...
