David in NJ explained: <The reason why JESUS referred to her as "little dogs" is because of the occult practices she was involved in, which led to her daughter being demon possessed.> I do not see anything about "occult practices" in the text. Jesus explained that he was sent only to the...

ewq1938 explained: <Gentiles are not dogs in that sense> Jesus said: "It is not right to take the children's bread and toss it to their puppies." (Mark 7:26). That seems a bit perjorative to me, and I imagine it was appropriate, since Jesus was sent to the house of Israel (not to Gentiles).

Regarding Anti-Christ, let us understand: If God hates false prophets, then God doubly hates false Messiahs (2Thessalonians 2:4).

Spiritual Israelite asked: <When did I say "card...doesn't mean you're not saved"?> In your spiritual dreams. If you are Israeli you should be telling me these things, I am but a gentile dog (Matthew 15:27).

IMO: o This conflict is Middle Eastern only, not all over the world. o Refusal to take the mark has consequences (Revelation 13:15-17). o Taking the mark has worse consequences (Revelation 14:9-11). o Petra time! (Matthew 24:15-28, Zechariah 14:5).

"Melchizedek" is Hebrew: מלך (melek) = King צדק (tsedeq) = righteousness I.e. "King of Righteousness" He was an early king of Salem, i.e. Jerusalem. He was apparently not part of an order, rather he was directly appointed by God, as was Jesus: "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me...

>What human being do you know has been alive on earth for over 2,000 years? > Angels and cherubim do not die.

"Day and night" is a Hebrew idiom for "any part of a day." We use the same idiom ourselves. If I work on something 2 hours on Monday, four hours on Tuesday, 3 hours on Wednesday, then I can say, "It took me three days."

<Can't because the Mark Of Beast is placed in the forehead or right hand and Card Chips are not placed in those places.> The tiny chip is the functional part, and they can be set in various places. Pets sometimes receive chips in the subcutaneous tissue before the shoulder blades. It's just a...

Revelation 13:12 says: ποιει τγν γην και τους εν αυτη κατοικουντας ινσ προσκυνησουσιν θηριον "It makes the *land* and all those dwelling in it worship the beast" There was no concept of planet earth in Biblical times.

<Can't be because the MOB is placed in the forehead or right hand and CCs are not placed in those places.> The functional part of a credit card is the chip. It is tiny and can be placed within flesh.

<How many times are the dead judged?> IMO once: 1. Believers once for rewards (Revelation 20:1-6). 2. Unbelievers once for condemnation (Revelation 20:11-15).

IMO: Jesus will return sometime after two events take place: 1. Israel is back in the land, and declares independence (done May 14, 1948). 2. Jewish temple is rebuilt (Malachi 3:1, not done yet).

Randy Kluth noted: <All good points. I don't know.> IMO: o. "Day and night" is a figure of speech indicating the same thing as "eating day and night" (i.e. continually, not continuously). o. The four living creatures are cherubim.

The Light noted: <There will be men in heaven with new bodies......after a rapture.> I certainly agree. The apostle Paul spoke of being caught up (a.k.a. "raptured") to heaven in Romans 12:1-6, and that would likely require an imperishable body, different from what we have now. We look...

Apparently in times past "Isaiah the prophet" was used as a header for the "prophetic books."

ewq1938 noted: <Can't be because the MOB is placed in the forehead or right hand and CCs are not placed in those places.> Chip implantation is an existing technology. The modern credit card is not a chip, rather the card houses the tiny chip.

Lambano noted: <"What did Mark actually write?"> That's a question, the manuscripts differ on this.

The mark of the beast is described in Revelation 13:16-18. It is a physical mark.

IMO: The KJV is correct in saying "as it is written in the prophets" because Mark 1:2 is taken from Malachi 3:1 and Mark 1:3 is taken from Isaiah 40:3.
