Hello Kaatje, "Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its branches become tender and sprout leaves, you know that summer is near. So also, when you see all these things, you will know that He is near, right at the door. Truly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all...

Good day Christ, Regarding the "Great Tribulation" I would have to respectfully disagree, as Jesus identified that time as beginning from the setting of the abomination. Below is the scripture: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the...

I completely agree with you regarding this issue Mattfivefour. My understanding of this particular issue regarding the GTS can be found within the elder's question to John: "These in white robes,” he asked, “who are they, and where have they come from? After John says that he doesn't know who...

Hey Chris, I just wanted to clarify something from your post above regarding when you say "The seals and bowls are in the first half." Did you mean "the seals and the trumpets?" Was that a typo? Also, regarding "The pause for the martyrs to arrive in Heaven is between the 6th and 7th seal in...

The obvious problem with that Christ is that, the first half of the seven year period is not the great tribulation. In Matt.24:15, Jesus identified the great tribulation as beginning at the setting up of the abomination. That said, the elder says that this group of white robed saints come out of...

Hi Chris, I noticed that you responded to my post where I am in agreement with everything that you wrote. I think you may have responded to the wrong poster. If not, then what specifically are you in disagreement on regarding what I had posted? Re: Though I agree with you that they are post...

Jesus identified "The Great Tribulation" as being as specific time of God's unprecedented wrath which will take place from the setting up of the abomination until Christ returns to end the age 3 1/2 years later. He also said that it would be a time like none other in history, so terrible that if...

Greetings ehbowen, Just curious: why would you think that these white robed saints of Rev.7:9-17 is referring to saints from the time of Adam and Eve throughout all ages, when the elder tells us that "these are those who have come out of the great tribulation?" In Matt.24:15 Jesus in quoting...

They must have also overlooked what Paul said to the Corinthian believer who was sleeping with his stepmom. Though it was not a case of homosexuality, it is nonetheless sexual immorality. And regarding this individual Paul said, "expel the immoral brother so that his spirit may be saved on the...

The two witnesses as representing two groups of people, or nations, I would greatly disagree with. For the details regarding them identify them as individuals. * Their dead bodies will lie in the streets of Jerusalem for 3 1/2 days * all peoples and tribes and tongues and nations will view...

Greetings Walter, While it is true that the persecution and death of Christians at the hands of Muslims and others is truly terrible, they are suffering what Jesus said that believers would, which is trials and tribulation and their for their testimony of Jesus and the word of God. These come...

Hello Salluz, Just fyi, Satan's fall from heaven is not a historical insert. In fact, none of the seals, trumpets and bowl judgments are historical inserts, but are future plagues of wrath which God will unleash in fulfillment of the long prophesied "Day of the Lord." Trumpets 5, 6 and 7 are...

Greetings Andy, The answer to that, is that scripture states that there will be a resurrection of both the righteous and the wicked. As you know, the righteous will receive immortal and glorified bodies, whether resurrected or changed and caught up. At the great white throne judgment, the...

Hello Pixelpusher, Neither Sheol nor Hades, which is Hebrew and Greek for the same location, should never be translated as referring to the grave. The proper Hebrew and Greek words referring to sepulcher, tomb and grave is qeber and Mnemeion, respectively. Both Sheol and Hades always refers to...

Yes, I agree that Paul described our bodies as being tents in another scripture. However, we must always consider the context in order to discern as to whether or not something is being referred to literally or symbolically. My reference to there being too much detail for the new Jerusalem to be...

Hello OnlyHim! In answer to your question, yes, the new Jerusalem is a real city. The problem with the new Jerusalem referring to our glorified bodies is that, the dimensions of the city is given as having 12 foundations, with each one being made of a precious stone and garnished with precious...

Not a problem. Ahwatukee is the name of the township that I lived in which was actually apart of Phoenix. Now I'm here in Lake Havasu City, Arizona, but I'm still Ahwatukee :)

Hi Bap, below is the scripture regarding the command of God regarding the Passover Lamb: Now the LORD said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, “This month is the beginning of months for you; it shall be the first month of your year. Tell the whole congregation of Israel that on the tenth...

Thank you so much for your prayers and concerns. I am sorry for your loss as well. As I'm sure that you know and will agree, our pets are apart of our family, enriching our lives. I think of my kitties all the time, Spook and Gizmo. It was really hard because I had to put them down within one...
