According to the Strong's Hebrew Dictionary H6389 the meaning of the name Peleg originates from a Hebrew word H6388 that is defined river, stream. This word originates from the Hebrew 6385 and is defined - divide. Strong's Hebrew Dictionary 6385. פָּלַג palag (pâlag) פָּלַג pâlag...

Not exactly! There was great tribulation that came to the nation of Israel from the wrath of God, and there is great tribulation that comes against the building of the spiritual Kingdom of God through the universal Church on earth that originates from the demonic spiritual realm. Since the...

I agree. I too believe the woman symbolizes the Old Covenant nation of Israel. The nation was to bring the Light of God to the earth, just as the sun and moon bring physical light to the earth. The twelve stars representing the nation from whom the Christ child would be born. I don't think...

I believe Jesus' warning of "great tribulation" was for both, what has come to pass to the nation of Israel by way of God's wrath. And also what shall come to pass for His Church on earth through spiritual warfare that originates from the demonic hosts and will not end until Christ comes again.

I'm thinking that since Christ is speaking to His disciples about things that shall greatly affect them, as well as things that shall affect the Church throughout the ages "great tribulation" by way of God's wrath did come upon "this people" when the Roman Army sacked Jerusalem destroying the...

Of course, it is all highly symbolic. Who is the woman clothed with sun and moon under her feet? What does a crown of twelve stars on her head symbolize? Who is the man child the woman brought forth? The child that was to rule the nations with a rod of iron?

Why would I leave out this verse? It supports what I've been saying. When our earthly body is dissolved (dies/returns to dust), we have a house in heaven. Not a physical body, but a spiritual body of believers. After the physical body of faithful saints breathes its last, we ascend to heaven...

Read Rev 12. You will see when Christ was born there was a war in heaven between Michael and his angels, and Satan and his angels, with Satan and his angels being cast out of heaven and to the earth.

I use the word 'implies' because the Bible does not lend credibility to that thought. It is not reasonable to believe Satan fell from a position because in the beginning he was something other than a liar and murderer. Satan did NOT fall, he was cast out of heaven and to the earth when Christ...

What is your experience when communicating with people who believe he fell? My experience is those who say this believe Satan is a created angel of God, but became arrogant, and defied God, causing the fall of mankind. This places man's fall and it's consequences within the power of those whom...

Yes, that works well also!

I make the distinction because saying Satan fell implies he was created to be something other than the murderer and liar he was from the beginning. People saying "Satan fell" typically think he was an angel of God, who through sin fell from that position and became evil. Showing that Satan...

It's comments such as this that make me reluctant to reply to your illogic! When a human, any human (saved & unsaved) physically dies their body returns to dust of the earth that it came from. Believers cannot be physical body after physical death before the last trumpet sounds. That's when...

The serpent was created "very good" for the purpose for which God created him.

I wouldn't say Satan fell! I believe he, who was the serpent in the garden, was created for a purpose. God created the serpent to be more subtil (cunning/crafty) than any other beast that God created. Why would that be unless God had a reason for creating him as such? Satan is then allowed...

More OPINION!!! Where are the verses/passages from Scripture to PROVE what you allege???? You have nothing but an incredible IMAGINATION!!!

Why would physically dead saints be under the altar, (which you agree symbolizes being redeemed by the blood of the Lamb) since Christ has defeated death? These Old Covenant faithful saints died waiting for the promised Messiah to come, knowing that He would redeem them from the grave. He did...

I don't care what beliefs Catholics hold, because I don't follow the Catholic Religion. My doctrine comes from the Bible, not Catholicism.

Does it not make sense to you that this small number symbolizes the remnant of Old that Paul says shall be saved? Yes, they are Old Covenant believers in the Messiah who was foretold to come. And yes, they are firstfruits, which the sealing before the Spirit is universally poured out shows...

What I find to be helpful in this passage is how Jesus says "they are equal to the angels" as He speaks of the resurrection from the dead. If Jesus was referring to the physical resurrection when our body becomes immortal and incorruptible, it makes no sense that He says we shall be as are the...
