OK, lets take up the Scriptures you gave here. Always game for that. But let's let Scripture interpret Scripture: Dan. 8:13 mentions the transgression of desolation (or horror). Yes, Jesus spoke about it, that it would be standing in the holy place (Matt. 24:16, Dan. 9:27, 11:31) Dan. 9:11...

All begging the question - assuming what you need to prove. So many assumptions! "No mas!" said Roberto Duran. This Roberto agrees....

Dougg, the problem here is that you are assuming what you need to prove. I agree that Israel is not living in peace at the time of Armageddon. Today, until this time of false peace in Ezekiel 38:11, there is no true, lasting peace. But prior to Gog and Magog's invasion they were living in peace...

Straightshot, before the Day of the Lord, you must acknowledge that this is Satan manifest in human form that is destroyed by "the breath of His mouth" "at the appearance of Hos coming". This is "the lawless one", the Antichrist, fulfilling God's purpose of disciplining "those who dwell on the...

Hi Dougg, Do you view Gog and Antichrist as two different people? As I began to say in my last post, you have to reckon with the issue of the peace (38:10-11, 14, 39:26). We know when the Messianic peace begins, and Israel has really not known a lasting peace for more than 40 or 50 years...

Of course we are to be occupied. Election has nothing to do with passivity. It was a rather recent revelation to me when I saw that if God can't declare the end from the beginning (because He is ordering things), there is no such thing as prophecy. (I was an open theist, apparently - I just...

Straightshot, I believe you are right in seeing the dual application of the language in Ezekiel 38 and 39 to the post-millennial period, but I would qualify that in the first instance (in Ezekiel 38 and 39), Gog is in fact Satan in the person of the Antichrist. There are numerous reasons why...

kingskid, election is a foundational concept in the Scriptures. In actuality, God elects or chooses people before the foundation of the world (Eph. 1:4, Gal. 1:15, Jer. 1:5). That God elects is simply God choosing. Do we make choices? We are not greater than God, are we? God is able also to make...

“Now the serpent was more crafty than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, "Indeed, has God said, 'You shall not eat from any tree of the garden'?"” ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭3:1‬ ‭ Sounds like what you're doing, Mr. Henderickson.

Thanks, Jerry. Let's keep crying out for wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Jesus.
