    Not a future seeing Jesus coming guy

    I highlighted Persia because of Iran's conflict with Israel stands out in the news. Ethiopia, although currently not in conflict with Israel, will be part of the Gog/Magog coalition when that attack on Israel takes place.

    Not a future seeing Jesus coming guy

    Matthew, Ezekiel 38:8 and Ezekiel 38:16 say latter years, latter days. i.e. end times. 8 After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which...

    Not a future seeing Jesus coming guy

    Matthew, we are living in the end times. Take a look at Ezekiel 38-39, the Gog/Magog event to take place in the latter years, latter days (Ezekiel 38:8, Ezekiel 38:16). The 7 years of Daniel 9:27 are the 7 years of Ezekiel 39:9 following the Gog/Magog attack on Israel. Ezekiel 39:17-20 is...

    LEFT BEHIND ... what to do?

    The day of Christ (referred to in 2Thessalonians2:2) begins in 2Thessalonians2:4. Since we have eternal life in Christ our Lord, the day of the Lord is eternal.

    The Antichrist ... or just another false prophet

    Day 1185 on which the AoD will be set up is 75 days before the mid point day 1260.

    LEFT BEHIND ... what to do?

    No. If that were correct, then the Thessalonians should not have been troubled by rumors that the day of the Lord had begun (indicated in verse 2). 1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, [the resurrection/rapture] 2...

    LEFT BEHIND ... what to do?

    The gospel of Salvation pertains to the salvation of the soul from the power of sin to eternally separate a person from God. Multitudes have died in Christ since the time of the cross. Their deceased bodies will someday be resurrected into eternal life incorruptible bodies. So being saved...

    LEFT BEHIND ... what to do?

    No, 2Thessalonians2:3-4 is not teaching the church would go through the great tribulation. But just the opposite. Paul was reassuring the believers in Thessalonica that the church, the body of believers in Christ, will be raptured from the earth before the Antichrist reveals himself to be...

    LEFT BEHIND ... what to do?

    Pre-tribbers don't teach that people could wait until after the rapture to be saved as an option if they so choose. Pre-tribbers teach today is the day of salvation and be taken in the rapture before the 70th week begins. Separate from any rapture timing view, the fact is that there will be...

    LEFT BEHIND ... what to do?

    No, they do not teach "someone could choose to just wait ". Pre-trib teaches today is the day of salvation.

    LEFT BEHIND ... what to do?

    No, you are misrepresenting what pre-tribbers teach. pre-tribbers teach that today is the day of salvation. pre-tribbers also acknowledge that there will be people saved during the great tribulation. (do you not acknowledge that there will be people saved during the great tribulation? )...

    The Antichrist ... or just another false prophet

    Ronald, the flaw in your rationale is that you wrongly think the 1290 days and 1335 days both end on the same day..... instead of they both begin on the same day - which is day 1185. day 1185 (the 1290 days begin)...........................................day 2475 the sign of the Son of Man in...

    The Antichrist ... or just another false prophet

    The middle day of the 70th week is day 1260, right ? 45 days + 30 days = 75 days, right ? So, the AoD will be set up 75 days before day 1260, right ? 75 days before day 1260 is day 1185, right ? The AoD will be set up on day 1185. 1335 days after day 1185, Jesus returns to this earth to...

    The Antichrist ... or just another false prophet

    That text does not say nor imply that the false prophet will be a king - a political figure.

    The Antichrist ... or just another false prophet

    No, Ronald. The AoD will be set up 1335 days before Jesus returns to stand on the Mt of Olives. Jesus returns on day 2520 (the last day of the 7 years). Thus, the AoD set up 1335 days before then will be on day 1185 of the 7 years. The counting starts on day 1185. Aod setup (day...

    The Antichrist ... or just another false prophet

    Ronald, I did not say 45 days after the 2nd coming. The 2nd coming of Jesus is Matthew 24:30b, highlighted in blue below... Matthew 24:30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in...

    The Antichrist ... or just another false prophet

    Ronald, I did not say anything about the 1290 days being after Jesus's return. AoD setup................... then 1290 days later......................................the sign of the Son of man will appear in heaven (Matthew 24:30a). That appearance will terrify the kings of the earth who will...

    The Antichrist ... or just another false prophet

    The AoD statue image of the beast king will be set up on the temple mount. 1290 days later, the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven (Matthew 24:30a). 45 days later, Jesus will descend to earth coming in power and great glory (Matthew 24:30b). Thus completing the 1335 days.

    The Antichrist ... or just another false prophet

    The text does not say that about the false prophet. The false prophet will be a religious figure, not a political one. Revelation 13:13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, That is the same sort of miracle that Elijah...
