    The Study of Revelation, Part 250

    “For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.” (Matt 24:21) The thought here is that a “time” or period of great trouble is to come upon the world. This time of trouble has both a beginning and an end...

    The Study of Revelation, Part 249

    “The Seven Last Plagues and the Destruction of Babylon” As we have discussed in our previous study entitled. “The Timing of the Seven Last Plagues”, which please see, there are three typical viewpoints held among the brethren with regards to the pouring out of the Seven Last Plagues, that is as...

    Why are there four Gospel accounts in the New Testament?

    Why four Gospel accounts? It is no accident that the Holy Bible has four Gospel accounts. It certainly isn’t unnecessary. The Biblical law states: “A single witness shall not suffice against a person for any crime or for any wrong in connection with any offence that he has committed. Only on...

    The Timing of the Seven Last Plagues, Part 11

    (5) PSALM 149 This Psalm is often used in connection with the future view. It does not, however contain much information to place it chronologically except in a way contrary to a future view. The claim is made that Psa 149:7 (highlighted below) is the equivalent of the seven plagues. (Verses...

    The Timing of the Seven Last Plagues, Part 10

    We return now to our third argument against the future-plague view. (3) A PRACTICAL CONSIDERATION Many (not all) of the holders of the future-plague position believe that the sealed saints will accomplish the administration of the plagues while in the flesh by a proclamation of harvest truths...

    The Timing of the Seven Last Plagues, Part 9

    We would like here to return to Brother Doran’s earlier argument against the future-plague scenario as it relates to the following text and to whom it is who gains the victory over the beast and the image, viz., “And I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was committed to them. Then...

    The Timing of the Seven Last Plagues, Part 8

    As was mention in our opening post there are three different views as to when the plagues take place, the first of these that they took place in the past has already been disproved, the second that they are yet future has a little bit more credibility, however we believe the facts will show that...

    The Study and Interpret the Bible

    Here is a quick outline of the requirements for effectively studying and interpreting the Bible: First, the Scriptures, as inspired by the Ru’ach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit), were NOT written to the spiritual elite, the Doctors of the Law, seminary graduates or to some selected religious group(s)...

    The Timing of the Seven Last Plagues, Part 7

    (3) Back to WHO POURS THE BOWLS: There is in Chapter 17:1 a VERY IMPORTANT message. In it we see “ONE OF THE ANGELS WHO HAD THE SEVEN VIALS” who comes to TALK WITH JOHN. In Revelation John represents the church in the flesh, this side of the veil. So, it is clear that the angels who pour the...

    The Timing of the Seven Last Plagues, Part 6

    Where are the plagues poured? Rev 16:1 states in a GENERAL way that they are poured on “the earth” – the establish (Christian) world or society. It will be noted, however that each bowl is poured on a DIFFERENT PART of the earth. The “earth” is divided up into different symbols so that we can...

    The Timing of the Seven Last Plagues, Part 5

    What are the Plagues? First, let us define some terms. Brethren sometimes are a bit careless or generalizing in the use of terms. With prophecy however it is imperative that we be quite specific for the sake of accuracy. For instance, we speak (with regards to Rev 20) of the binding of Satan...

    We continue with our look at some of the horrible events which have taken place in the 20th century. 5. Cambodia’s killing fields (1975–1979) Death toll: around 2 million deaths The Khmer Rouge was a radical communist movement that reined over Cambodia during the years of 1975 through 1979...

    The following article entitled: “How Genocide and Human Depravity drove History’s Bloodiest Century” written by Charles Stephen, denotes some of horrific events of the 20th century. “There’s an irony surrounding the 20th century. Believe it or not, it began with a strong sense of hope and...

    The Timing of the Seven Last Plagues, Part 2

    General Remarks on the Timing of the Plagues Please look carefully at Rev 18:4 “And I heard another voice from heaven saying, “Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues.” Several deductions seem either inevitable or likely in its words. It...

    The Timing of the Seven Last Plagues, Part 1

    Excerpts for this study were taken from a discourse given by Brother David Doran on the plagues (edited). When are they? There are basically three views on the subject. 1) Some believe the plagues are all in the past. We don’t feel comfortable with this view since Rev 15:1 states that these...

    The Seven Last Plagues, Part 2

    We continue with Brother Hagensick’s discourse on the seven last plagues. 1 Cor 15:52 speaks of the resurrection of the saints as being “at the last trump.” The term “last trump” implies the last of a series. Since the first letter to the church in Corinth was written long before Revelation...

    “And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvelous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God”. —Rev 15:1 The following excerpt was taken from a discourse by Brother Carl Hagensick entitled, “The Seven Lasts Plagues”, which we believe will prove...

    Revelation Chapter 15 VERSE 7 and 8 continued “Then one of the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of God who lives forever and ever. The temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from His power, and no one was able to enter the...

    Revelation Chapter 15 VERSE 8 “The temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from His power, and no one was able to enter the temple till the seven plagues of the seven angels were completed.” AND THE TEMPLE WAS FILLED WITH SMOKE FROM THE GLORY OF GOD AND FROM HIS POWER: This...
