    It takes place on the day of the Lord, Zechariah 14:1. This chart is of the 7 segments of the day of the Lord. Segment 3 is when Jesus will stand on the mount of Olives, splitting it in half. All nations come up against Jerusalem, Zechariah 14:2. The kings of the earth in...

    When Jesus returns, He will stand on the mount of Olives splitting it in half (Zechariah 14:3-4). Since the mount of Olives is still intact, it is proof that Jesus has not yet returned. Here is a graphic illustration I made of that day.

    In Revelation 19, Jesus returns. Revelation 19:19 And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army. Leading up to His return, the kings of the earth will gather their armies at Armageddon...

    1Thessalonians5 refers to the day of the Lord as being a time when God's wrath will take place. In Revelation 15-16 there will be 7 vials of God's wrath. Those don't take place in a single 24 hour day. So, the day of the Lord must be understood as having a series of segments to it. 1. the...

    Hi HealthyShape, I don't think Jesus said that the parable that the chief priests and the Pharisees would be crushed - at His coming. The chief priests and the Pharisees did suffer the 70 AD event. But that was not Jesus's coming. In the parable, the husbandmen (the chiref priests and...

    The Jewish religious leaders of that generation rejected Jesus and the kingdom of God. Thus, the kingdom of God will be given to another generation of the nation of Israel. The Jews en-masse will turn to Jesus and the gospel of salvation in the middle of the 7 year 70th week, in Revelation...

    I am a futurist, premil, non-denominational, non-dispensationist. I also don't hold to replacement theology.

    The disciples of Jesus were sent out by Jesus to travel throughout Israel to announce that the kingdom of God was near at hand. In Matthew 21, Jesus arrived in Jerusalem riding a donkey, which is the Son of Man coming to Jerusalem as their King. Which is what Matthew 10:23 is speaking about.

    Actually, those two verses are two parts of Jesus's coming. First, He had to leave (part 1) and then His return (part 2) Matthew 16:27 is about Jesus's return. coming with His angels in the great glory given to Him by the Father. Matthew 16:28 is about Jesus's ascension to heaven from the...

    No, the pope, nor papacy is not the Antichrist (if I recall your view, correctly).

    We live in a world full of violence and war. When Jesus returns bringing the kingdom of heaven to earth, He will rule the nations with a rod iron, and men will learn war no more. Men will beat their swords into plowshares.

    You kinda got that mixed up. In 1Thessalonians5, it is the day of the Lord beginning like a thief in the night. Jesus returns later around 4 years after the peace and safety illusion ends. day 1...........3 years, peace and safety........ToD act............the AoD setup (day...

    Not a future seeing Jesus coming guy

    I am not disagreeing with that part. In the text of 1Thessalonians5, it is the day of the Lord comes like a thief in night. Near the end of the 7 years, there is a passage in Revelation 16 that Jesus also comes like a thief in the night. The term "like a thief in the night" means something...

    Matthew, when your posts focus "on you", that invites others to comment "on you". Instead make posts that focus on topics and what is written in the bible. Focus on Jesus and what God said in the bible, and what the prophets and apostles wrote.

    The kingdom is within us. We have not entered the kingdom of heaven yet. When a Christian dies, their soul goes to heaven, where the kingdom of heaven is. When the rapture takes place, the raptured Christians will be translated and taken to heaven with Christ.

    The 7 years begin when the prince that shall come is perceived by the Jews as their long awaited messiah. The false prophet anoints the prince that shall come as the King of Israel thought-to-be messiah, making the person the Antichrist. In that role as the King of Israel, the Antichrist will...
