I fully agree with all you have written here. I don't believe I have implied otherwise. That which gives me trouble is not when the seventh angel 'begins' to sound, it's the phrase "But in the days (plural) the voice of the seventh angel". The trumpet blast sounds to indicate the mystery of...

We are created with body of the dust of the earth, and spirit, the breath of life that comes from God, and the two together become a living soul. Paul addresses the churches both collectively and individually. Because the church is made up of individuals. Every living person possesses a body...

But the purpose for the parable was to give comfort to His faithful saints. They need not fear death, if in life they possess faith like that of poor Lazarus. God makes a distinction between those of faith in life and in death. Believers, after death, will never be numbered among the dead...

These living souls indeed were alive after physical death, otherwise they could not cry out at all. They cry out to God because in their time of redemptive history Christ had not yet come to redeem them from death. To be under the altar symbolically means they had faith that a Messiah would...

When Scripture speaks of the soul departing from our body, it is simply saying the spirit or breath that gave our body physical life is leaving or has left us. Our body then shall return to dust, and our spirit or breath of life that God has given every living, breathing creature returns to God...

While you have understanding of 'soul' what of the 'spirit' in man, how do you explain 'spirit' that is the breath of life to our mortal body and together (body & spirit) became a 'living soul'? You cannot be a living breathing creature upon the earth without both body and spirit. The spirit in...

Yes, you're correct! It is not the soul that departs the body after death! It is the spirit that God gave that returns to Him when the body dies, and if he/she died in Christ that spirit then is a living soul without a body in heaven (Ecc 12:7). People of faith in Christ have no reason to...

Perhaps, but that is not my intention. We are and have been living in these last days, or end times since the first advent of Christ. This is the symbolic time written a thousand years. I'm unable to understand how there shall be time no longer in the days (plural) when the seventh angel...

Yes, Paul I agree. The last trumpet is the end. The end of time symbolized a thousand years for which the church was given to build the Kingdom of God by taking the Gospel unto all the nations of the world. And when they (Church depicted as two witnesses) have finished their testimony, then...

You said Satan's little season comes after the thousand expires, but also that time symbolized a thousand years is finished when the seventh angel begins to sound. How can time, symbolized a thousand years be expired and Satan still have a little season of time? If time shall be no longer when...

Satan will not be set free for a little season until time symbolized a thousand years expires. After that Satan is given a little season, yes? I think you agreed that time symbolized a thousand years extends from the first advent of Christ until that time expires. Where do you place Satan's...

See reply #7950 to Spiritual Israelite.

The seventh and final trumpet sounds, announcing days (more than one day) following the trumpet blast. Not days of more time symbolized a thousand years for building the Kingdom of God through the Gospel preached that has ended, but days of time called Satan's little season. When the trumpet...

Not time itself, but specifically time symbolized a thousand years. I believe this is time allotted the church on earth to take the Gospel unto all the world, at the same time the church suffers through persecution and great tribulation. Throughout this time the church on earth is nourished...

Try following your own advise, because you don't seem to show love for Amigo, even though Christ instructs us to show love and compassion even to our enemies! You are the pot calling the kettle black! Only one who is pure and without sin is capable of judging another's heart! You have made...

Great tribulation should be defined for those who experience it! Consider those written in Fox's Book of Martyrs, who kept the faith unto death. I doubt they would say they had not suffered "great tribulation" like never before and shall never again be. This is true of all faithful saints...

Reading Rev 12 in context tells us that with the birth of Christ a war in heaven commenced between Satan and his angels and Michael and his angels. That's when Satan with his demonic hosts were cast out of heaven and bound to the earth. After being cast out a voice from heaven was heard saying...

I am of the belief that which is shortened is "great tribulation" that should come upon faithful saints during this age of Gospel grace. Great tribulation is connected with proclaiming the Gospel unto all the world for a witness unto all nations (Mt. 24:14). Continuing His discourse, Christ...

Then why weren't the giants all gone after the flood? They were still in existence much later one in particular named Goliath, whom David killed.

Yes, Satan's little season is time, but it's not during the time God gives the church on earth to build His Kingdom as the Gospel is proclaimed unto all the earth. After the thousand years of time is finished, then Satan is loosed and given a little season. Satan's little season comes after...
