Brothers, Sisters,

May the grace and peace of thee Lord God Yahshua the Christ be upon you. The following is a short bible study about events that shall take place. Before thee Lord God Yahshua the Christ returns to destroy the wicked, heavens, and the earth by fire. Please take the time needed to carefully study what has been given you this day. Remember as followers of Yahshua the Christ, we are to study to show ourselves approved. If a messenger comes to you with a message that you do not understand, take pains to hear out said messenger and the message he brings. Then provide strong biblical reason as to why you disagree. May the truth of this study be fuel unto your vessel and a light unto your path.

Day of the Lord begins on an unknown day within the 7 years, with the transgression of desolation........then shortly thereafter, the great tribulation begins on day 1185 of the seven years with the abomination of desolation ...........

then the great tribulation ends with Jesus's return.......

and the Day of the Lord continues into the millennium rule......

and then the final rebellion.......

then the present heaven and earth consumed in fire......

then the Great White Throne judgment.....

and the Day of the Lord continues into and for eternity, with a new heaven and new earth, and new Jerusalem.

So I think Christians will stop killing once in the future Jesus says that "thou shalt not kill".

But what about the Atheists and other people? I came up with a solution, though it's pretty vile and maybe not a good solution. It is that we'd torture the murderers. That would prevent at least some of the killing.

But then there's the problem of what if the murderer kills himself at the end of the slaughter. I don't know what to do about that.

But anyway, I might be wrong on torturing the murderers and am open to change my mind on that.

Edit: I'm aware that torturing people is so terrible, so maybe I'm wrong on this one. I just need people to say I'm wrong in order to change my mind.

Edit2: The conversation below convinced me that...

I can't seem to stop creating. I am a very creative person. Ideas pour out of me like water. And they are not part of my job. I spend a lot of time on my job creating instead of doing the work I've been assigned. I can't stand not creating. And I know this is theft. It is a sin. What do I do? The things I create could be valuable to millions of people. I have created major breakthroughs in my field. And yet I do not get to use most of these on my job (I do get to use a few). I just keep creating.

Should I look for a new job? If I do, I have Asperger's and I have done this many times and have never found a job that uses my creativity, so I keep stealing no matter what job I get. I could brain damage myself and stop creating, but that...

I know the 10 commandments command us not to bear false witness against our neighbor but what about other lies?

It's true. Christ is the true religion and is the only way for a person to get saved but what makes Christianity truth? Let me phrase it this way:

Jesus said he was the only way to God but what separates him from all of the other false prophets and false teachers that have existed over the last 6,000 or so years? Because Buddah, Mohammad, Simon bar kokhba ...etc have all claimed that they were the only way to God. Its true none of these people were brave enough to call themselves God and Christ was the only person who ever lived who claimed diety. So one COULD argue that since Jesus was God in the flesh that he must have been telling the truth. But where is the evidence that Jesus was God? Because Buddhists worship the Buddha like a...

Am looking for advice from christians who have read Hugh Ross' book 'Improbable Planet' and christians who hold Genesis 1 as literal days.

Should I read this book? I thought it was a book about how fine tuned the universe is but it is a book by someone who holds the belief that our universe came into being in billions of years. I was pretty disappointed when I started reading :s i just bought it today. I also just came back from a 'Answer in Genesis' talk which reconfirmed creation in 6 literal days.

Could this book be of any value at all for someone that believes in the words that in six days the earth was created?

Also, if I discard of the book should I sell it or just get rid of it? I don't really want to sell it to someone and...

Sometimes when my wife and I have arguments she brings up things that my pastor or my pastor's wife said about me to strengthen her argument. These things get under my skin more than the argument itself because the pastor or pastor's wife did not tell me these things directly. This issue has been going on for about a year. For example my wife said that the pastor said I am "rigid" or "militant" about my faith and the pastor's wife said I "take church too seriously". My wife tries to downplay these things because she works on the church staff and I am not privy to all the internal conversations and context in which any comments were made so she says I should not be so worked up. This issue really bothers me and yesterday after she told...

See title. See, like if it was just a thing here or thing there...this probably wouldn't bother me...but no, it's like on every single biblical teaching people are divided over...EVEN LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF....About the only one the vast majority of Christians agree on is Jesus died on the cross and was resurrected to save you from your sins...but after that...there is virtually no unity on theology...so how can anyone believe when nobody is sure of the correct belief, while still teaching it as flawless?

The right view of sin, is that sin is always wrong, and never right, and that is the right view of sin...

Now, before some of you start saying "Yeah, that's it, get those sinners" Don't be to hasty lest you forget that I am talking about people who would say that's "sins" as well... For all, ALL are sinners, and there is not exception, unless you absolutely 100% perfect, your a sinner, (hence some of my frustration with that crowd who would say that or say otherwise)...

Now, is this truly always the case, that all sin is never right and always wrong...? I must explain that I don't like those distinctions for there is/are always "exceptions"... Like someone lying to Nazi's who are hiding Jews in their house in Nazi Germany during...
