    Israel will be Darkened

    Thank you for your response and caring again! Loosely speaking we agree to agree, ie, great! First and foremost the sheep and goats are separated before our Lord's future "1" Return, ie, after each one's passing a secret and forensic judgment is rendered....public at Matt.25 at the end of...

    Ten Reasons I Do not Believe There Will Be "an Antichrist"

    Excellent thread and posters, thank you for caring! Only a humble head's up, viz. Rev.13:18 & IIThess.2;4: Deceit produces the image and certainly makes it look wonderfully attractive. Men themselves erect it of course. `Where but in their own minds, and hearts (BTW Jn.2:19, "destroy this...

    Ten Reasons I Do not Believe There Will Be "an Antichrist"

    Thank you for caring again! Only s head's up regarding IJn.2:22, contextually is the small antichrist, and not the Antichrist. Paul furnishes us a full description of the Antichrist in IIThess.2 of course. Old Jack's opinion Thank you for caring again! Only something to think about, ie, if...

    Ten Reasons I Do not Believe There Will Be "an Antichrist"

    Thank you for caring again! I always do my best to agree to agree, ie, Antichrist in IJn.2:18 is "the one opposing himself," in IIThess.2:4 or "against" agreeing to agree my brother. Regarding the signified contextual composite of Rev.6:2 we'll will still have to agree to disagree of course...

    Pre Tribulation rapture

    Thank you for caring again! Although I have no idea the size comparison of the renewed, renovated, and purified, made perfect new earth to the old, you could be correct thus probably the closest we'll ever get agreeing to agree. However regarding the 'pre-trib. and rapture' issue, we're...

    Israel will be Darkened

    Thank you for caring! Armageddon = "1" future Parousia = Hab.3:11-13. Old Jack's opinion

    The Great Tribulation

    Thank you folks for caring again! Only a head's up, "Kingdom of heavens" ("heaven" = God's throne) has an earthly side and heavenly. Heaven, of course, existed waaay before Gen.1:1, eg, Jn.17:24 for openers. That is a kind of a "third heaven" (abode of God) sort of thing. We just need to...

    How can the rapture be anything but pre-trib???

    Thank you folks for caring again! "IIThess.2:6, "And the thing now holding up you know, so that he is revealed in his season,...." Only a head's up, The Lord Godman Jesus was the One holding up the revelation of the Antichrist. Not the "Church." The "Rapture" will occur at IThess.4:17 of...

    TheGreat Day of the Lord is Near

    Thank you for caring again! A sign of the times, viz., IIThess.2:10b, "for those perishing because they receive not the agape of the truth that they be saved." My point, the parousia of the antichrist is in full bloom today where Paul drew a parallel between the antichrist and Christ. The...

    How close are we with the rebuilding of the 3rd Temple?

    Thank you for your response again! Rom.11:5, "...there has come to be a remnant (a leftover) according to an election of grace..." Again the true Israel, God's people has come to consist of only a a portion left (Jewish believing Christians), but the main bulk gone, eg, (Messianic synagogues)...

    TheGreat Day of the Lord is Near

    Thank you folks for caring! Matt.24:29, etc. is an excellent passage about a future "1" Parousia of our Lord, the end. Isa.13:10, 11 is to be viewed more in the wide sense including the immediate destruction of Babylon, ie, say a blending of judgments where also includes the N.T. "Day of the...

    How close are we with the rebuilding of the 3rd Temple?

    You're the cause of the other guy coming after me (you obviously really care what Jesus did at the Cross beyond the "1" hour on Sunday worship)...lol with you...good question my brother. First and foremost the rendering of naos is always the "Sanctuary" in the N.T., and never "Temple" complex...

    How close are we with the rebuilding of the 3rd Temple?

    Thank you for your response again and caring! From my simplified view, all stands or falls on the credibility of IIThess.2:4's "Sanctuary" which is presently being built in men's hearts today or IIThess.2:4's "Temple" which will be built in the future, ie, naos vs. ieron? Old thankful Jack...

    The Mindset of Many Institutional Religious Leaders

    Thank you for caring and I went over all, interesting to say the least! If Mr. Baldwin had a Scriptural Truth, eg, valid way of one's instant of faith, water baptism, repentance, or etc., then in this way he, others, would be a part of the solution, correct? Old Jack thinking out loud again.

    What's your definition of idolatry?

    Thank you for your response and caring! A head's up...we are beginning to agree to agree more...RANDOR could have the 'big one' if he finds out. Old disagreeable Jack Thank you again...highest respect for you and your words.

    "Free" Will

    Thank you for your response! Don't make a bank run as I've gotten where I'm at today regarding the Scriptures by heartfully coming under IITim.3:16, "refutable..correctable" where I have been wrong too many times...border line idiot, yet our Lord keeps giving me chance after chance to get it...

    Understanding the Strong Delusion

    The Flesh

    Thank you again for caring again! I was thinking "sinful nature"? Old Jack's two-bits

    Salvation by Grace through faith alone

    Thank you folks for caring! Only a minor head's up. God the Holy Spirit works on one from the outside in where one has, at one's instant of faith, saved and in the "Kingdom of God" even before one's water baptism.....my opinion only. Secondly, Rom.10:9, 10 is assuming one was already "saved,"...

    Are there any Born again Christians In Here?

    Thank you for caring! Assuming one is born again, how does that born again Christian enter through the narrow portal and passage? Old curious Jack
