    The Coming Great Apostasy

    I do not believe in Darby's ideas of a Pre-trib Rapture, nor his Dispensationalist beliefs. Those on mans's doctrines of Preterism and Historicism (like yourself) often try to push the Biblical links about the coming false-Messiah to systems like Darby's when in reality those events are clearly...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    I don't think you understand how John used that term "antichrist". John used it in referring to the false one the brethren had already heard shall come... 1 John 2:18 18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    Then that would be falsely promoting against what Apostle Paul revealed for the very end when the pseudo-Christ shows up in Jerusalem, which is yet to occur.

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    But that was in their... era, centuries ago. The Reformation happened long ago. My ancestors were French Huguenots, the first French Protestants. The Catholic Church in that time tried to wipe them out. That's how my ancestors came to America, having fled to Great Britain and then to the...

    Rev. 16:15 (part 1)

    I noticed in another of your posts you mention you came out of the Pre-trib Rapture doctrines of man, but I think it may still be influencing your understanding in God's Word about these events of the end. If you try to make Revelation flow chronologically how John wrote it down, then it has...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    Well, not yet brother, it is not happening yet. The reason is because Apostle Paul linked that time of apostasy with the appearance and working of that "man of sin" that is to come working signs and lying wonders, the same false one our Lord Jesus warned about in Matthew 24 that is to come to...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    That's what Churches on the Preterist or Historicist doctrines of men hold to. But those doctrines simply are not preparing their congregations for the coming great tribulation by the coming pseudo-Messiah that our Lord Jesus and His Apostles forewarned His Church about for the last generation...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    It won't just be in the holy land... Rev 13:4-8 4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? 5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    In 2 Thessalonians 2, Apostle Paul taught of the event of "a falling away" that is to happen first, prior to our Lord Jesus' coming and gathering of the Church. 2 Thess 2:3-4 3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man...

    Rev. 16:15 (part 1)

    I have to disagree with what you've come up with. You almost seal the meaning of Rev.16:15 with some of its relative Scripture perfectly, but then in final do a major drop of that and scoot back to men's doctrines. Our Lord Jesus was speaking to His Church in that verse, because it is the same...

    The Reality of the Millennial Kingdom

    Antiochus IV placing an idol in the temple to Zeus worship was the meaning of the "abomination of desolation". It's about an idol that makes the sanctuary a spiritual desolation. In Revelation 13 we are told about the "another beast" who comes to work great wonders making fire come down from...

    THE DAUGHTERS OF MEN

    In the Hebrew manuscripts, the phrase "daughters of men" includes the article and particle in front of the word aadam, which usually is pointing to a specific aadam, like the man Adam which God placed in His Garden to til the soil. Most likely, those "sons of God" (angels) went after the...

    The Abomination of Desolation?

    Our Lord Jesus' Olivet discourse of Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21 confuses many. It contains a dual-fulfillment prophecy about the destruction of the buildings on the temple mount, both in 70 A.D., and then in final by Jesus when His feet touch down upon the Mount of Olives at His return. The...

    Behold, a New Heavens and a New Earth!

    Based just on the above image, your wife is right. You should... consider pursuing it as a career, er, maybe at least a second career until you build a following. Real representative art is back in vogue (meaning non-abstract). I studied art at university in my early twenties. My instructor...

    The Antichrist: The Deep, Dark Secret

    And our Lord Jesus said this about Judas, which has bearing on why He also called him the "son of perdition"... John 6:70 70 Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil? KJV It's because like you said, the only one already judged and sentenced to perdition into...

    The Reality of the Millennial Kingdom

    Yes, we'll have to agree to disagree on some things. Antiochus IV as a type fulfilled the "abomination of desolation", conquering Jerusalem and going into the temple and sacrificing swine on the altar and then placing an idol in Zeus worship. Yet our Lord Jesus about two hundred years later...

    The Reality of the Millennial Kingdom

    I wrote that in reply to Trekson's post.

    The Reality of the Millennial Kingdom

    The wicked are not all destroyed with Christ's 2nd coming. If you read the simple John 5:28-29 Scripture you should understand by that there is a resurrection for the condemned also on the day of Christ's coming. 1 Cor 15:53-54 53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal...

    The Reality of the Millennial Kingdom

    Yet Peter still carried a sword, and because the two in Luke 2 held up two swords, we know others of the disciples did too. This should be no surprise. And we are not all chosen very elect like Christ's Apostles were (see John 17). One should read John Foxe's Book of Martyrs to see how many of...

    When Is Flesh Man Judged To Perish?

    The purpose for the sealing of God's servants in Rev.7 is shown in the Rev.9 chapter... Rev 9:3-4 3 And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. 4 And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of...
