    Shall We Suffer In The Tribulation Period. I Think Not.

    MIke, it is only a theory that one separates the wrath of Satan from the wrath of the Lord, for John shows us in Revelation that they are both happening at the same time. While the Beast is at the peak of his destruction, beheading millions who refuse his mark, God is pouring out the vials of...

    The Calling of the 144,000

    Well, if you believe that, it is certain YOU won't go. Christ is coming for those LOOKING for his coming. Heb 9 28 ...and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. He is only going to appear to those who are LOOKING. The rapture will be by faith...

    The Calling of the 144,000

    First, Paul TELLS us we are gone before the week begins. Second, COMMON SENSE tells us, since it is DANIEL's 70th week, not Paul's 70th week. God's wrath is felt during the entire week, 7th seal to 7th vial. Therefore, we MUST be gone before the 7th seal; and indeed, we are, at the 6th seal...

    The Calling of the 144,000

    Guy, why would you write such a silly thing? First, the fifth trumpet is NOT DEADLY. Second, how do you know that the 5th trumpet will be a world wide event? Perhaps it will be confined to the Middle East, or an even smaller area. Next, the sealing written is not for Christians. What I read is...

    The Calling of the 144,000

    For those that browse and don't study, it might seem, at first, that the 144,000 actually had something to do with the great crowd. But the truth is, they DON'T. Rosenthal and VanKampen got it right on this great crowd. But I will get to that later. IN CONTEXT John has just covered the first 6...

    The Calling of the 144,000

    For those that can read and remember, we know this is not found ANYWHERE in scriptures; it is only conjecture or theory. What IS written is that they are "firistfruits." If they preach the word at all, we don't know it. Coop

    The Woman And The 144,000

    The first mention of the woman in verse one is certainly not "endtimes," as she is "with child," as seen in verse 2. This was the woman just before Jesus was born. These 5 verses is God showing John what the devil did when Jesus was born; trying to kill him back then. But the woman in verse 6...

    For Discussion Purposes, Let's Fast Foreward To The Future To The Middle Of The Tribulation Period.

    For this scenario (assuming it is true), I would HAVE TO BE a new Christian, and MISSED the first load, meaning, I was left behind. To fit your scenario, millions turned to Jesus when they realized that they were left behind. I am not sure I would BE online, for that would be ONE WAY to get...

    The Elect

    Unless by "elect" God is speaking of the Jews (Hebrews) and not of the church at all. Coop

    A Place Prepared By God

    Readers,. this is only a theory, that does not fit the scriptures. Jesus made it clear that those living in Judea flee into the wilderness. Rev. 12 DEFINES the "woman" as ISRAEL, not Christians. Coop

    The First And Second Resurrection

    Yet, Jesus was first before the first as the "firstfruits" of them that slept! And 1 Thes 4:17 & 18, the rapture, will be the secondfruits of these that slept, second before the "first" resurrection that comes on the last day. Perhaps John meant, not first in sequence, but first in importance...

    69 Week To The 70 Week?

    As you can see, Maxx, Christina is following doctrines of demons. The bible is CLEAR that we meet Christ IN THE AIR. hey! Birds live in the AIR and they FLY. IF we are going up up up in to air, to mee the Lord in the air, and in the clouds, we must FLY. That is just common horse - I mean bird...

    69 Week To The 70 Week?

    Maxx, it seems, the way the New Testament is written, that God gave Himself an option - depending on whether the nation as a whole, would except Jesus as their Messiah. I think it is possible, had they done that, that the 70th week would have taken place way back then. But, in fact, the nation...

    Earthquakes...what They Really Mean?

    Whirlwind, what on earth have you been eating or smelling? Have you HEARD the two witnesses? Have you SEEN the events of the 6th seal? No, of course not, because these things are FUTURE to us. There IS NO furmula of making the 3 1/2 days into years. John wrote days and John MEANT days. I don't...

    The Witnesses Prophesy About The 1,260 Days?

    Do you mean that in ever chapter 12 in the bible, the 6th verse means it is Satan's verse? NO NO NO!! it is GOD'S word. You can't play with numbers like that. Those numbers were added LATER, and have NOTHING to do with the meaning of the text. It is only chapter 12 in meaning, and verse six IN...

    The Days Of The Last Trumpet

    Christina, you were right to chastise Whirlwind, for he is wrong on everything. But, you too are missing John's chornology, and the timing of the "day of the Lord, and the 70th week. The day of the Lord begins with the 7th seal. The 70th week of Daniel begins at the same time. The first six...

    The Days Of The Last Trumpet

    How am I saying the opposite? ONLY because you have misplaced the rapture in your theories. Go back and read Chapter 7: John saw the church in heaven, at the throne of God, between the 6th and 7th seal. If you will look, you will see that the 7th chapter IS before even the first trumpet is...

    The Days Of The Last Trumpet

    Sorry, Christina, but you are the one confused. First, let's call it the "day of the Lord," not "the Lord's day," which in the days of the early church was used for Sunday. Does the Lord have to be present for the Day of the Lord to begin? Of course not!! That is just human reasoning. Go back...

    The Days Of The Last Trumpet

    Sorry. Perhaps you would rather I had used the word prophesy? Rev 11:3 ...they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days... But, in my defense, if they are called "witnesses," and I think prophecying can fit into witnessing. Coop

    The Calling of the 144,000

    Why do you keep saying this? What do you really mean? Why not lay it all out, so we can understand what you are saying and why you are saying it. Coop "Those days" of "great tribulation" are coming from Satan's wrath, not God's wrath. However, we can be sure that ever saint killed will...
