    William, thank you for your response, but with all due respect, I would like to ask you again to answer those questions. Absolutely not wanting to be difficult, but God has indeed give us the answers to these questions and so much more... and he is not an end time actor. William, who is he...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    William, who is he? When does he arrive? Where does he come from? Where does God reveal to us everything about him?

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    Our approaches to Daniel and to Scripture are simply too different. You repeatedly insist that Scripture must interpret Scripture, yet when Daniel itself gives clear historical identifications, you seem willing to redefine them as something primarily spiritual whenever that better fits your...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    There is a lot of comments here but I do not see much that represents the interpretations of Daniel - and this is where He identifies the little horn, and all of the prophecies of his coming (Daniel 7 and 8). God gave us the Book of Daniel to interpret.... and He does not give us vague...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    With all due respect, God has indeed made this fellow known - the timing of his arrival, his characteristics, where he comes from, why he comes out, and simply so many more detailed pieces of information found in Daniel 7and 8. These are indeed not a type and shadow of an evil one that will come...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    Well, we are clearly miles apart on this topic. And it all begins within the interpretations of the Book of Daniel. And once Daniel is understood, then Revelation will seem like a piece of cake - especially concerning the "short period at the time of the end" that you mentioned. But the little...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    Part 2 of 2 What About “The Antichrist”? Even where English translations use the phrase “the antichrist,” the article does not prove that John is identifying one final end-time individual. A singular expression can identify a category, character, or recognized adversarial principle. The...

    Part 1 of 2 Does 1 John 2:18 Predict One Future Antichrist? John writes: “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.” —1 John 2:18 Some argue that the words “antichrist...

    MOTB by itself does not always = LOF ??

    Right above these 3 you will find this statement: Revelation 14:11 reinforces the finality and seriousness of God’s judgment:

    MOTB by itself does not always = LOF ??

    For what it is worth, here is the current narrative for Chapter 14: 9-11, found within the Commentary on the Book of Revelation (still in progress): Revelation 14:9-11 introduces the third angel’s message, one of the most serious and urgent warnings in all of Scripture. It is the culmination of...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    Thanks for your thoughts, but I do not believe that conclusion necessarily follows. The four Gospels proclaim the same Messiah and communicate truths intended for the entire Church. However, they do not present the life, ministry, death, and resurrection of Jesus in precisely the same way. I...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    As we know, each of the four Gospels was written with a particular audience and purpose in view. For that reason, one Gospel may emphasize a certain event, detail, or prophecy from the Messiah’s ministry that another Gospel does not mention, while another may present a different aspect of the...

    Daniel 9:25 - the messiah the prince

    I would ask that you go back and read post # 175 and #176. And should you like to do some further research on you own, I would recommend you take these four verses in 24 -27 and prepare your own chiasitic structure. You will definitely find it can only be interpreted one way.
