Hi Vet, I don't believe that I said that Babylon would be the location of the throne of the a/c. Imo, Babylon and the a/c are two different things. Will the a/c's throne be in Jerusalem? Yes, I agree. Babylon is where the Harlot is enthroned. I believe America will become that latter day...

Hi Veteran, Your words: The coming Antichrist will not be a flesh born man. I disagree with you on this one. I believe he will be human but will be fully possessed by satan when he is killed and raised up the third day. I believe vs. 12 takes effect at the point of Rev. 13:3.

Hi Axehead, Your words: What I am trying to address is God's Word to someone personally, and how they would think it now becomes God's Word for everyone for all time in the same vein as Scripture is. I have seen this sort of thing happen. An example would be an alcoholic that has been...

Dell, Your words: “I appreciate your time and look forward to the debate, but I'm not one to get in a rush, as you probably have figured out by now. I read everyone's post and try to reply with as much respect and attention as possible.” As do I. My apologies for being late in responding as...

Hi Axehead, Hmmm. A very interesting topic! I do agree with this statement you made: "There is No man today that has the same level of authority or qualifications of the Apostles." However, I don't believe prophetic revelations ended with the Book of Revelation. Daniel tells us that in the...

Hi, I wrote this a few years ago when we were still in Iraq but I still believe the majority of it applies. I believe that the USA will become the Babylon of Rev. 17 & 18, however I do not believe it is that Babylon at the moment, nor do I believe that Rome or a future apostate church is the...

Hi Ridgerunner: Your verse" 1Jn 2:18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time In this verse, the first mention is singular and speaks, imo, of the a/c to come, the second...

Hi Aspen, This isn't "fatalism", it's "pessimism". Fatalism says, I will die at my appointed time and nothing I can do will stop it.

Hi Retro, Your words: Furthermore, I challenge anyone to find a place in Scripture where "sons of God" EVER refers to "angels!" In every verse you listed! you say, "It could just as easily refer to human beings presenting themselves before God at the Temple!" and it could just as easily be...

Hi Ridgerunner, I think you may be over simplifying things a bit. Yes, the "spirit of antichrist" has all those things mentioned in the scriptures you quoted and they have been around since the beginning of the church, but don't stop there. The man who will become what we call the "anti-christ"...

Hi Richard, Your words, "Many on this forum, believe the book of James when it says "faith without works is dead" A book that plainly says it was written to the Jews who we`re under the Law of Moses (James 1:1). Therefore they believe they must have their own works instead of trusting in the...

Hi Epi, Your definition...: "The Broad Way: Having our own possessions, maintaining a private life that suits us, choosing things for ourselves, maintaining a comfortable distance from other believers...seeking happiness!!!!! The Narrow Way: Having all things in common with the...

Hi Axehead, I suppose there is a possibility that some people may believe this, but I haven't met any. If they have this errant view of positional holiness than they are wrong, but that doesn't make the concept of positional holiness wrong. To answer your 2 questions: But, does a confession of...

Hi Dragonfly, Here's my input. Rom. 4:16 - "Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; (all those who believe by faith) not to that only which is of the law,(the Israelites) but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; (all...

I don't know what all the fuss is about. Richard is correct when he says the gospel of grace as taught by Paul was different from what Christ taught but there is a good reason for that. Jesus lived, taught and died under the law. In Christ's teachings, we get glimpses of grace and mercy but not...

Hi Faithful, I think I agree with most of what you wrote but assuredly you know the a/c will have great influence on unsaved people. That's how he will rise to power. The church has nothing to fear from him, except for the trials and tribulations of being persecuted for our beliefs, but with...

Hi Pelaides, The NJ of Rev. 21:10 and the city of Ez. 48:35 are two different cities. The 18,000 measures are roughly 6 miles. The twelve thousand furlongs of Rev. 21:16 comes to roughly 1377 miles. As you can see there is a huge difference. The city of Ez. is the earthly millennial Jerusalem...

Here's one of my favorite quotes from Thomas Edison (on inventing the light bulb) "I did not fail one thousand times, I successfully found one thousand ways it would not work!"

Hi Retro, No, I'm not forgetting about them because they won't be residents of earth. The earth will be for the physical. Those who have experienced death already and will have been resurrected will abide in heaven at least until the NJ comes down. While we may be able to travel back and forth...

Hi Dell, Your words: "Here in Romans 7 there is nothing there to think this man is trying to exercise any gifts of the Spirit to get victory over sin." That's not what I said. I said, "trying to exercise the gifts of the spirit and getting victory over sin" Two separate things, though as I...
