    When to look for the rapture of the church

    Yes, the unsaved will have resurrection bodies as well; but still with mortal souls subject to the "second death". How can you even read Rev.20 and bypass the concept of the "first resurrection" and the "second death" as given there? John 5:28-29 28 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming...

    When to look for the rapture of the church

    I'm not a Dispensationalist, so I don't believe in a pre-trib rapture, nor that Christ takes His Church to Heaven to live for a thousand years while fleshy Israel re-lives a fleshy kingdom on earth. But there is enough Scripture to show there will be a literal, physical sanctuary setup in...

    When to look for the rapture of the church

    I may have to address your post in multiple replies, since you made a long post (which long posts are OK by me). I don't see a problem at all with reading the end of Rev.19 with it then flowing right into Rev.20. The beast and false prophet are destroyed, but Satan as the dragon is not yet...

    Who is the Little Horn of Daniel?

    Yes, if we count the "little horn" that comes up among the other ten, then there's a total of 11. Same thing in Rev.17. They are not all called little horns though. Only the one horn that comes up among them to rule over them is the "little horn", pointing to the Antichrist for the end. I see...

    Who is the Little Horn of Daniel?

    No. The Antichrist which Apostle John said shall come has not come yet today. 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; whereby we know that it is the last time. KJV They had already heard that the...

    Prophecy vs. Apocalyptic

    Revelation is both... Apocalyptic AND... prophetic. Same with the 'Apocalypse of Isaiah'.

    When to look for the rapture of the church

    The five wise virgins certainly are... members of Christ's Church. Jesus does not close the door on them, but only on the five foolish virgins who didn't prepare with a spare vessel of the Oil (Holy Spirit). With the parable of the sheep and goats of Matt.25, the sheep certainly are... members...

    When to look for the rapture of the church

    Here's a passage in Isaiah linked to 1 Cor.15 and the resurrection: Isa 25:5-9 5 Thou shalt bring down the noise of strangers, as the heat in a dry place; even the heat with the shadow of a cloud: the branch of the terrible ones shall be brought low. It starts off by the saved declaring the...

    Who is the Little Horn of Daniel?

    Consider this: Rev 17:8-14 8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the...

    Who is the Little Horn of Daniel?

    In Dan.2 we're given 5 parts to the beast statue, and that 5th one is to be manifest when Jesus (The Stone not cut out with hands) comes to smite it upon its feet and the whole statue comes tumbling down. So in Dan.2, the 5th part of the statue is the last kingdom when Christ comes to end the...

    Prophecy vs. Apocalyptic

    Well, you could add Isaiah's Apocalypse to that, which of course would be another failure of that tool you were proposing.

    Who is the Little Horn of Daniel?

    No. There is no such thing Biblically as a revived Roman empire. That is a misinterpretation from Daniel 2. Dan 2:32-35 32 This image's head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass, 33 His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay. 34...

    The Beasts that come from Sea, Earth, and Bottomless pit

    Rev 12:1-5 12:1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: The "woman" represents Israel (per the symbols of Gen.37). The "woman" literally never was in heaven, so you fail to look at...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    Your in company with seminary Preterists and Historicists who live in the past. The Protestant Reformation ended a long time ago. Protestants fought literally, the Catholic Church in Europe, and the Protestants left those Catholic nations or converted. The pope wasn't the Antichrist then, and...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    Irrelevant. The temple in Jerusalem Paul prophesied of has nothing to do with the Roman empire. Paul was prophesying of a future event in Jerusalem at the end of this world when Jesus returns.

    Who is the Little Horn of Daniel?

    How can the "man of sin" be comparable to the Rev.13:1 first beast that comes up out of the sea, having ten horns, seven heads, and ten crowns? That first beast out of the sea represents Antichrist's kingdom. It's the "another beast" of Rev.13:11 that is the "little horn" of Dan.7. The only...

    On the very near Rapture Day Jesus will Return and Catch up those Looking for Him!

    The manuscript meaning of Hebrews 9:28 "look for" means to await, to expect. NT:553 pekdechomai (ap-ek-dekh'-om-ahee); from NT:575 and NT:1551; to expect fully: KJV - look (wait) foreign (Biblesoft's New Exhaustive Strong's Numbers and Concordance with Expanded Greek-Hebrew Dictionary...

    The Beasts that come from Sea, Earth, and Bottomless pit

    You don't know what you're saying. If you did, you wouldn't create crazy scenarios like you did in your post #36, which is so far away from the Rev.12 context that it's almost like you're were writing a comic book.

    What wonders do you think could fool the elect?

    No, it isn't a discourse just for the Hebrews. In Luke 21 He warned for His servants in other countries to not enter into Judea when the abomination is setup. It's directed to Christ's Church. Those were not un-believers on the Mount of Olives with Him. They were the 'foundation' of His Church...

    Prophecy vs. Apocalyptic

    I read it, and it's just seminary-style mumbo-jumbo. What about Joseph's dreams in Genesis 37? Was that apocalyptic? No, it came true. Nebuchadnezzar's dream which God gave Daniel to interpret, was that apocalyptic or prophetic? Actually both. Thus the theory you present falls flat and is...
