    Who can speak to the text?

    Any and all under the spirit of antichris.

    If Heaven is so Great...

    Haha...it is for the same reason you posted this: Temptation of the flesh.

    When did Daniel 7:13-14 happen?

    God is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Therefore, there is no such timeline of events, except as they are revealed into the darkness of this world. As such, if the vision was manifest to Israel at the coming of Christ (for He said that it has come upon them), it was then repeated after...

    Who can speak to the text?

    The warning is not only to Israel (nor specifically about their history), but to all. That is the point. He only uses Israel and their history for example.

    7 Facts: The Rapture and the End of the Age

    The problem with considering even that possibility, is that it all just ends in more conjecture. The only answer to these age old questions is in knowing just what the world is. By God's word and revelation, the world is the manifest revelation of everything good and evil brought to light...

    7 Facts: The Rapture and the End of the Age

    Well...I would credit God for media before the media of men :)

    7 Facts: The Rapture and the End of the Age

    A quick synopsis of the reality of Time: Within the context of this famous movie scene, we would not look at our own watch to see what time it is. That would be ridiculous. Fact is the movie only seems to have a timeline, when there is actually no such thing within the physical film sitting on...

    7 Facts: The Rapture and the End of the Age

    I don't want to hijack the thread, but Time is a big subject, and yet it is at the heart of most misunderstandings about the world and about God. Including these seven.

    7 Facts: The Rapture and the End of the Age

    It is true that most people agree on more things than can be numbered, but also disagree on just as many. But why should we debate what God has made clear is a matter of "creation" suitable for all purposes good and evil? Does it even make sense that their truth is also our truth, when God has...

    7 Facts: The Rapture and the End of the Age

    If I may interject: The timing of world history is simply a matter of disagreement for lack of understanding what the world actually is. The world is not natural, but supernatural. It is the manifestation and revelation of the story of Jesus Christ made known to all, the dead and the living...

    7 Facts: The Rapture and the End of the Age

    Seven misunderstandings :( The whole message here from Jesus is not a put-off of the timing of events to some future mass event, but rather that "All these events are the beginning", not the end. So...it is not correct for you to say that all these things are signs of the end. Which begs the...

    But by prayer and fasting

    Each in their own time, as God has allotted.

    But by prayer and fasting

    The issue of "fasting" is commonly misunderstood. As with most [religious] practices (even those that are legitimately prescribed by God), they are practiced for revelation and our learning, more than they are meant to be a quick fix of a problem worthy of prayer. In other words, like the law...

    Purgatory - A Catholic's Understanding

    If you would like, I would be happy to go over each of the scriptures one at a time that you wrongly believe support a Purgatory.

    Purgatory - A Catholic's Understanding

    That's what happened when Jesus spoke hard sayings. Most left following him. Sounds like you just don't want to hear anything against your own misguided beliefs which you have poorly supported with passages that don't actually describe a Purgatory at all. Scripture can be like that. There is...

    Purgatory - A Catholic's Understanding

    Says those who live by it :(

    Purgatory - A Catholic's Understanding

    Just as time is an illusion, so is the notion of Purgatory.

    Purgatory - A Catholic's Understanding

    None of the scriptures that you have quoted tell of more than one salvation by God via two folds only, not three. The idea of Purgatory simply stems from a lack of understanding the one salvation plan of God, and his appointment "for men to die once." Even worse, it is built upon the illusion...

    HERESY?

    Yes, the statement that "God loved us while we were yet sinners", would also include the sin of heresy.

    Purgatory True of False

    It is not just the Catholics. One could even implicate God, for it is he who created time...which is the problem and the confusion. So then, yes, the Catholics made a religious doctrine out of what God had meant merely for the incremental revelation of all truth--to children (his children)...
