    Does Daniel 11 Describe King Herod and His Dynasty?

    Again, only by an unsound hermeneutic and man-made interpretation of the Bible. Because God makes no mention of the erection of a pagan altar in the temple, or Antiochus Epiphanes, or 168 BC, or of AD 70. There is not one word where God speaks of such dates or occurrences. This is another...

    The "watch rapture view"

    No, Jesus did not describe Judas himself as "the church." In the New Testament, the "church" refers to the body of believers who are truly saved and faithful to Christ. Judas, by his own actions and Jesus' Words, was not one of them, even though he was among them physically as an external...

    The "watch rapture view"

    Sigh... No surprise you still didn’t get it. Didn’t Christ call Judas to be one of the Twelve? Yes—but he was never a child of God. He was a child of perdition, a thief who clung to his own doctrines and desires for worldly gain. He rejected the teachings of Christ in favor of what benefited...

    The "watch rapture view"

    :rolleyes: It is through the mind of Christ that we are made to see things that the natural (carnal) mind doesn't see. Things that we understand that the carnal mind doesn't understand. There is always a difference placed by God between the carnal mind and those who have the mind of Christ...

    Does Daniel 11 Describe King Herod and His Dynasty?

    Out of my entire post—where I thoroughly refuted your interpretation of the "time of the end" -- you chose to get offended by the very first one-liner rather than respond with a proper biblical refutation? LOL. That’s fine. Your future posts will still be refuted by me, sooner or later, for...

    Does Daniel 11 Describe King Herod and His Dynasty?

    (Contiuned from previous post) Daniel 12:3 "And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever." We receive the knowledge in Christ Jesus that we are these stars of heaven. Israel were these stars of...

    Does Daniel 11 Describe King Herod and His Dynasty?

    Poor baby. And you have not refuted anything I say anyway. Just complained about the tone of my response, eh? LOL. Time of the End has nothing to do with your pipe dream of 70AD theories. Here is a long lesson for you, "Exegesis" In Scripture "the time of the end," as well as "the last...

    The "watch rapture view"

    Dumb! The church is a covenant relationship with God. She has two groups of people within her. A church within a church. "Many are called" (1), "Few are chosen. (2.)" There are many (the majority) in the church who are professed believers. They are the corporate church. They are the...

    The "watch rapture view"

    See, you are still obsessed with Satan, whom you don't fully understand without listening to the discussion on Judea. Obviously, you do not know, cannot understand, will not believe, and are spiritually blind to what God has not revealed to you. Enough said.

    The "watch rapture view"

    Well, therein lies our problem. You seem to be under the misconception that the word of God exists in a vacuum. The truth is, the Word of God isn't insular, where we can just look at a passage and by its context take it at face value. If that was the case, John the Baptist would have been a...

    The "watch rapture view"

    True, learned nothing because you do not have spiritual ears. Really? You wrote, "I have to wonder if you believe that the flood in Noah's day was an actual physical flood of physical water that went over the entire physical earth. Do you believe that or not? It would not surprise me if you...

    Does Daniel 11 Describe King Herod and His Dynasty?

    Looks like more Preterist theories nonsense. King Herod is an actor in Daniel 11?! Just because the building project called "Herod's Temple," to "magnifies himself"? It is because of his actions toward his family members, religious leaders, and Jews? And he was troubled by the "tidings from...

    The "watch rapture view"

    Not surprised—from someone who lacks spiritual discernment. Let me be clear: I never denied the literal, physical flood of H₂O, the physical ark, or the literal animals during Noah’s day. Of course, those things happened! But your reaction shows just how superficial and carnal your thinking is...

    The "watch rapture view"

    I said it is in the Scripture, and it is your homework to find it. Chapters and verses on how OT Saints became Elect.

    The "watch rapture view"

    You have no clue what you are talking about. You don't even know how the Old Testament Elect was chosen. It's in the Scripture so that will be your homework. I am done for the day. Good night!

    The "watch rapture view"

    Oh yes! LOL. No one here said He is. Huh?! DNA. What are you talking about?! Where did your get this from. And? I said they are choosen Elect. Where did I said the chosen are fallen? So were the Jewish Elect of the Old Testament. They are part of one covenant tree. Do you really...

    The "watch rapture view"

    Nope. The True Church—made up of chosen Jewish and Gentile believers in Christ—is built with spiritual stones that will never fall. These are the faithful from both the Old and New Testaments. In God’s eyes, they are gold, silver, and precious stones, enduring and eternal. Together they are...

    The "watch rapture view"

    Of course. But you only answered one of the two questions. So let me ask again: What temple did the Jews—as the builders—build, with Christ as the cornerstone, even before the fall? Hmm? What building was it that had the stone the Jews rejected? Was Christ a literal stone? No? Then the Jewish...

    The "watch rapture view"

    LOL—oh please, don’t play innocent now. You opened this can of worms and then ran for cover. You made the claim about watching for Christ’s return, but when asked how and what to look for, suddenly you’ve got stage fright. What’s the matter—scared to be corrected? Because all I’m seeing now is a...

    The "watch rapture view"

    I asked you a direct question, and you should be able to give a clear answer—especially since you were the one who said we need to be looking for Christ’s coming. So the question is this: how are we supposed to look? What exactly are we looking for to know that Christ is coming? You mentioned...
