Try to put this together in symbolism: 1. A pit is a grave. 2. Anything that is bottomless, has no end. Altogether, "bottomless pit" simply means the place of "endless death", which is this earth, that ultimately becomes a Lake of Fire of molten lava, on a global scale. The four angels are...

Yes, as Davy said, the symbolic meaning is that it is the armies of men. Rev. 9:13-21 reveals that it begins by a ground war, but someone drops a few Nuetron bombs, which destroys nothing EXCEPT PEOPLE in a very short time, as in "an hour, a day, a month and a year", which is an event of...

John 5[28] Marvel not at this, for the hour is coming [after Jesus' death and resurrection, then Pentecost and forward] when all who are in the tombs [of their mortal bodies, living mortal life] will hear his voice. 5[29] And those who have done good [who received the Spirit of Christ] will come...

Yes! Absolutely YES!! The "rod of iron" is for shepherding, and definitely IS FOR the "saved of the nations". How does a "rod of iron" rule, when it is unleashed and weilded in a room full of "clay pots"? It breaks them into "shivers" Rev. 2: 26-27. We as born again Christians have Christ's...

To "infer" is to fabricate an assumption, based on "the wisdom of men", and not by "the mind of Christ", that is within all born again Christians. Unfortunately, church-ianity has made a quagmire out of the Truth. That is NOT where our faith should stand, but rather in that which is by the...

2 Thes. 1:7-9 and Rev. 20:14 says it all about WHEN the 2nd death IS!! 2 Thes. 1[7] And to you who are troubled rest with us, WHEN the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, [8] In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of...

And I replied in post #72

There will be NO "left overs", because Rom. 8:9 SAYS SO!! The "wicked dead", having not the Holy Spirit of God, cannot be resurrected back to life of any kind. God does not know them, and therefore they ARE NOT "remembered" by Him, because they "are none of His". None of them will be found in...

I have read all of what you wrote, and then answered it. Unfortunately, you are so consumed with your Pre-mil doctrines, you flush, rush and gush to overcome my understanding of the OT prophetic scriptures. Jesus referenced many of them through Typology, being that of type and anti-type...

The Feast of Tabernacles, aka temporary dwelling places, is not about the Jews, but rather it's about God and the "temples" of our bodies in which He desires to dwell. For everyone who is of faith in Jesus, and is born again, we are made to be "partakers of the divine nature" in our...

Sorry, NT scripture reveals that on the day of Jesus being revealed from heaven, there are NO second chances for the unsaved, after mortal death. You know the scripture, but I'll post them anyways: John 16 [7] Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go...

All of that in Zech. 14:16-17 was fulfilled by Jesus' first appearance. You know, John 5 [39] Search the [OT[ scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. For thousands of years, many have come up against Jerusalem, but in 70AD, THAT earthly...

Maybe in the following, you can connect the dots: By default, whoever is not born again of the Holy Spirit, is a child [person] of the devil. Mat. 13 [38] The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; Rom. 8 [9] But ye...

So you think and say, but could you explain WHO the MANY ARE, that do not know God and do not obey the gospel of Christ, and shall suffer everlasting DESTRUCTION/perdition, upon the [24 hour] day of Jesus' Glorious return, being revealed from heaven in [fiery] flaming fire? KJV 2 Thes. 1:7-10...

So there are two sons of perdition/destruction?? According to 2 Thes. 1:7-9, are you sure there won't be more than TWO sons of destruction/perdition? That scripture says that there ARE A LOT MORE!!

And....your point is that there ARE MANY "son(s) of perdition/destruction". Paul agrees with you in 2 Thes. 1:7-9 [7] And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, [8] In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not...

Judas betrayed Jesus, and Peter denied Jesus of ever knowing Him. In the above, which is the worst sin against Christ and God the Father? Mark 14[71] But he [Peter] began to curse and to swear, saying, I know not this man of whom ye speak. The truth is, neither sin is more worse than the other...

Keeping it simple: 1. Waxed exceeding great. The key word is "waxed", which is defined: "To wax to be strong [great] is to increase in size or intensity. Waxing is the act of increasing or growing something, so the adjective “strong” isn’t necessary to intensify the meaning." 2. Being relative...

Are there not more than one who is a "son of perdition"? Of course there is, and all who are a son of perdition [DESTRUCTION], will be destroyed. KJV 2 Thes. 1[9] Who shall be punished with everlasting  destruction [ PERDITION] from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;

Yes, that is what God calls earthly Jerusalem, that now is. Jerusalem and its temple building were destroyed in 70 AD. John wrote the book of Rev. In 96AD. Therefore, he was very aware of its destruction.
