Or it could just simply mean that for Christ to whom a "day is as a thousand years" that "shortly" for Him is not the same as "shortly" for us who are bound by time restrictions. People do have a tendancy to overthink things.

My opinion is that America is described in the bible as a type of Babylon. See Jer. 50 & 51 and Rev. 17 & 18.

All I know is just about every continent has cave drawings depicting men interacting with dinosaurs, not just mammoths and sabertooths.

The seven weeks (49 yrs.) represents the time from the prophecy until the command was given to rebuild Jerusalem by King Darius, I think. The 62 weeks (434 yrs.) represents the time that Nehemiah started to rebuild until the crucifixion of Christ, imo.

Hi Group, I just finished reading this book and thought it was very timely and interesting. It doesn't have an "end times" viewpoint but I believe it should be read by all christians who will see the hand of God at work with this nation. I believe the "truths" he revealed are way more than mere...

Hey Foreigner, Maybe if you kicked back, relaxed and had a smoke you wouldn't be acting like a tool. Most smokers I know just watch all these anal-retentive non-smokers keel over from type -A heart attacks.

Hi Foreigner, The problem with your argument is that you believe the CDC gives out factual information. Nothing could be farther from the truth. The CDC is just the health police of the democratic liberals who want to control the way you live, eat and breathe. All this threat of second-hand...

Hi Rex, The people Jesus was rebuking were the Pharisees, the religious leaders of Israel. At that point, He wasn't condemning the nation as a whole. I'm sure that same tirade will be used against many Gentile pastors and church leaders come judgment day.

Excellent post Arnie, I agree whole-heartedly.

I'd like to add my opinion to the question, "Are gentiles excluded from the promise?" I guess it depends on which promise you are referring. Regarding the land promise - Yes, we are excluded but we have a better promise" Heb. 6:19, 10:34, 11:16,40. A heavenly one, not an earthly one...

Hi Arnie, Imo, the "all" of Israel will consist of the remnant elect who have attained salvation. Among them will be the 144,000. That is the "all" of Israel who will be left alive and who survive the sheep and goat judgment.

Hi Alan, Your words: "That the Church has to go before the anti-christ can come, That means the Church is raptured to heaven for the whole of the seven years." That's subjective thinking because that sentiment isn't in the bible. Your words: "Jesus is coming back for a people just like Him, A...

Hi Joshua, Your words: "Here is the thing to understand about the church, while the church is active on the earth and before it reaches it's full number, anyone who get truly saved and becomes born again becomes a member of the Church, and becomes a NEW CREATURE. As far as God is concerned they...

Hi Alan, Your words: "That means the Church doesn't go through the tribulation period." If you are still considering the whole of Daniel's week as the "tribulation period", than you are in error. There is no verse in scripture that even hints at a "tribulation" lasting seven years. The 70th...

Hi Alan, Your words: "Anyone who believes we go through the tribulation period, Is calling God a liar., Either that or they don't know the Bible." Actually, I believe it is you that is misunderstanding scripture. Do a word search on trials and tribulations in the NT. The amounts they are used...

Hi Joshua, The pre-trib doctrine stands on the two-legs of imminence and dispensationalism and if either are proved false than pretribulationism crashes and burns. Given time I believe I can knock both legs out. Your words: "The term that I like the best is either the 70th week of Daniel or The...

Hi Joshua, You've given me something to ponder about regarding vs. 46. I can't say I've really noticed that before. However, your words: 'Therefore the Church that operates completely within the Age of Grace must have been completed and removed from the earth by the Rapture before the...

Hi Joshua, Your words: "So you are still stuck with the individual sheep, either being a believer or not a believer. If the sheep is a believer, then why wasn't he raptured? If he wasn't a believer, why does the Lord call him Righteous? " Imo, the separation in Matt. 25 isn't based on belief or...

Hi Enoch, When one understands the great trib as being a short-term event within the context of the 70th week and realizes that the great trib will end well before the end of the 70th week and when one understands that, then the real meaning of post-trib as described by the early church fathers...

Hi Joshua, Your words: "The Bride is the church." This is an assumption without scriptural verification. There is not one single verse that flat out states the church is the bride. Yes, there are some verses that uses marriage as an analogy but it would be wrong to read into them more than it...
