After the Christians of the East were chased out of the Byzantian and Palestine areas by Islamic invaders, and they fled West bringing with them their pure, unadulterated Eastern Greek Bible MSS, a formidable challenge to Rome's "authentic" Latin based Bibles arose and still wages today. Except...

Lately, triggered liberals have sought to Though it is not apparent on the surface, the world is run by members of "societies" with names like "Council on Foreign Relations", the "World Council of Churches", the "Trilateral Commission", etc. These organizations present themselves as being...

Jesus was considered hostile, bigoted, close-minded and a threat to the religious community of His day...If He were here today, I'm convinced liberal Christians would be hating on Him with the same ferocity.

While your facts of history are spot on accurate, the Second Beast is indeed a "beast" and God's assigned meaning to that symbol is a "kingdom", not an individual (Daniel 7:23). Yes, Daniel 7:17 says "these great beasts, which are four, are four kings" but we know that this description does not...

OK LOL Key Maxim: "The Bible is its own interpreter". Knowing our propensity to err, God took it upon Himself to assign the meaning of prophetic symbolism. The movie "Contact" ripped off this concept by explaining the key to unlock the mystery of the alien blueprints was a "primer" found right...

Prophecy is really simple, but simple things don't appeal to those who crave the excitement of what modern prophecy teachers claim. Here's what John Wesley wrote about the Second Beast of Revelation 13 in 1754: ""He is not yet come, though he cannot" far off. For he is to appear at the end of...

The Rapture is when the resurrected and yet alive Saints are "caught up together in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air", followed by massive global destruction, so nothing will be going on down here afterward. The problem with Futurism aka "Left Behind Theology" is that it fills the future...

I'd like to think that Solomon is referring to non-essential secularism - would the wisest man ever discourage the study of prophecy or any other part of God's inspired Word? Probably not. Also, it's not right for ByGrace to arbitrarily decide that studying prophecy is outside the realm of...

Avoid getting the Mark of the Beast...and going to hell?

Prosperity preachers... A lady I once met said she was the church secretary of a very large non-denominational black church. She said one day she and her pastor picked up other pastors at the airport for a conference, and they all started bragging about how much money they brought in and how...

Amen, the sooner the better

Studying about the Beast gets us nowhere spiritually? "Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein:" Revelation 1:3 KJV I'm sure you'll agree none of us can afford to miss out on any blessing of God, right?

You have absolutely no idea what an indictment of the character of God your statement is. Would God cloud the identity of the Beast in impenetrable mystery, and then warn those He loves that if we accept the Mark of the Beast, we go straight to hell?

No one is condemning Catholics, except those disgusting child predators who've destroyed countless lives by their disgusting predatory behavior. The Beast is a system, a kingdom, not an individual, and God is calling those He refers to as "My people" out of that system. Why are Christians so...

Since the most fearful curse in the entire Bible is "don't take the Mark of the Beast", does it seem reasonable that God would cloud the identity of the Beast, Man of Sin, Little Horn, etc. in what most suppose to be impenetrable mystery - the eschatological equivalent of forcing us at gunpoint...

Stupid? Abraham prayed for God to not do to Sodom and Gomorrah what He said He would. The Ninevites prayed for God to not do what He told Jonah to announce to their city. And anyone who cares even the least bit about children ought to be praying that these child molesting Antichrist...

Clues given by Paul leave no room for speculation. He said before Christ's return, there'd be an apostasy and the Man of Sin would arise within the Temple of God, would claim to be God, and present himself by appearance, doctrine, and authority as God. Paul continues by saying that there was...

There's nothing blind about my beliefs. It is well known that there is no salvation for anyone who refuses to acknowledge the supremacy of the Papal See. If the Pope wakes up and declares "you here get an indulgence...and you there get an indulgence...EVERYBODY gets and indulgence!!!" Catholics...

Yes, just imagine how Biblically literate Spurgeon and the rest of us would be if the Papacy hadn't so early on outlawed individual possession of the Bible, outlawed all translations except in a language understood only by papal authorities, chained it to the pulpits, and threatened death to...

Praying for the coming of Jesus is by its very nature against Antichrist - the Man of Sin will be destroyed "with the brightness of His coming", right?
