Perhaps if I paraphrase my thoughts on this passage of Scripture, who knows it may help??? There shall be no more time allotted for the saints to proclaim the Gospel unto the world during the time (days) the angel blows the seventh trumpet indicating the Kingdom of God is finished/complete...

Does not John write the martyred souls he sees in heaven are alive after death because in their lifetimes the lived and reigned with Christ during this time, symbolized a thousand years? As well as these living souls, does not John also write there shall be other saints, blessed and holy who...

Prior to the advent of Christ and Satan being bound he was free to hold in fear of bondage to death all the Gentile nations of the earth. The only nation having heard the good news of the Messiah who would come to redeem them from death was Israel. By His shed blood and resurrection Christ...

I don't guess it really matters SI, since you've said, and I reluntantly agree that it would perhaps be better to agree to disagree regrading the sounding of the seventh trumpet.

If the thousand years expire after the fifth trumpet why does John write the thousand years is time the faithful live and reign with Christ before Satan is loosed?

I seem to really have some Amils up in the air over this difference of opinion of the seventh angel sounding. I don't deny the last trumpet ushers in the final days of human history when Christ shall return. Perhaps, being a Pastor, you cannot fathom a point in time when the Gospel has...

But you have not been able to adequately or even biblically explain why I have misunderstood. I believe my replies have addressed your argument with you believing that ALL time ends in the days of the sounding of the seventh trumpet. I don't even disagree with ALL time coming to an end, but I...

I was saying that I agree with what you said. IOW you presented my understanding pretty well.

You cannot have all time ending when the final trumpet sounds when Satan is still given a little season of time. I agree the days (plural) of the seventh trumpet sounding shall be of great climatic, intensified persecution upon Christ and Christians, because that's when Satan shall have his...

If you understood the purpose for Satan to be bound is for building the spiritual Kingdom of God, not so that he cannot wage a great battle upon this earth.

John cannot write that ALL of time shall end when the seventh angel begins to sound. Because that would mean time that is symbolically written a thousand years expires. But when this time symbolically written a thousand years expires, Satan is loosed for a little season of TIME. All of time...

No, it's not merely ONE thousand years of time. But it is time symbolically written as that which began with the first advent of Christ and will end in the days when the seventh angel begins to sound. No, the trumpet sounding of the seventh angel does not mention the thousand years. It does...

Your understanding doesn't hold since this great battle you say Satan is being set free to wage NEVER develops!

If Satan is bound and is loosed so he can no longer deceive the nations to battle, then when he is loosed, we should read of a great battle coming against the Kingdom of God, Christians, then. But there is no battle according to Rev then. John writes that under the power of Satan leads Gog and...

They represent spiritual wickedness under the power of their king. Not fallen angels, but the demonic hosts. Their king cannot be released until a thousand years (symbolizing specifically time from Christ's first coming and the sounding of the seventh trumpet) have expired, because He is bound...

When I write time, symbolized a thousand years, its to distinguish a thousand years from ALL time! IOW a thousand years symbolizes time from the first advent to the sound of the seventh trumpet. That (a thousand symbolic years) is the time that shall be no longer, because that is when the...

I may not have explained very clearly, but this is exactly what I've been arguing. The thousand years of symbolic time are finished when the seventh trumpet sounds, but Satan's little season is not during this symbolic time, it is after it expires. The seventh angel sounds (again...

That's kind of like calling yourself lukewarm, isn't it? Christ has something to say to those who profess to be a Christian church, but who are in fact lukewarm. Revelation 3:15-16 (KJV) I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou...

That's the point! We find deception and sin in this age from creation, but in the age to come there shall be no deception, because there shall be no sin. Only two ages for human history, this age we are living in from the foundation of the world, and the glorious, perfect, sinless age to come...
