I'm sorry Doug, but let us stick with what scripture tells us. It doesnt say its the Roman empire, you believe that and that makes it your opinion. The 4th Kingdom is not named. Lets stick with facts and not opinions here where we can use scripture to look it over. Secondly, you make the...

I think I answered it in my previous post. I understand you won't change your mind and that is fine by me. But I'd be careful using Jewish customs, customs of men, to support biblical doctrine. Everything we need is in the Bible, not in Jewish customs. Here is an exert from 1 commentary: -This...

I think its possible - all who die wait for the resurrection. We are never promised to live in another world outside of earth. We are never promised to live forever in heaven, only the messianic kingdom of heaven on earth. I understand people want to believe that everyone goes to heaven. How do...

You know, I agreed with you when you said "the false prophet and the Antichrist are the same person." But then you did a 180 on me. I agree that the man of sin is the little horn. But men are never shown to rise from the sea, only the earth. If you are interested at a later time, I can provide...

But the verse doesnt say that at all. To get to that assumption, you have to believe that leading captivity captive was those brought with him on his ascension from hades. But even that is pure speculation and not a plain reading of scripture. I cant find a single commentary on biblehub that...

d Taylor, If I may suggest something though, the earth has always been a symbol of mankind. The first Adam was of the earth, and so all flesh is of the earth. I agree with you, the sea is symbolic of the nations of the world. There are countless scriptures proving it. Christ even spoke of a...

I wouldnt say Paul hoped to be alive. That is contrary to Paul telling the Thessalonians that certain things MUST happen before the gathering together of people to Christ. He warned the Thessalonians that those things havent even happened yet. In 1 Cor 4:9 Paul said: “For I think that God hath...

I'd need to review the verses there d Taylor. If I recall right, and I am not sure, I believe Christ descended to the lower depths and preached to them. But I don't recall Him bring them back to Heaven. Please copy a scripture point here on that basis if you have it. Would be good to look at. I...

Sadly, they do not. In the first one you posted, that is the most common one always used as a rebuttal. Yet the context is usually ignored. Are you suggesting we are going to live in mansions in heaven where Christ always spoke of the wealth and extravagance of the peoples as vanity? Yet Christ...

In response to your last question, I'd like to think so keras. Since you made a comment about the Antichrist, the comment should be scriptural right? Otherwise, we could be giving ourselves and others bad eschatology. That goes for me, you or anyone else. If you suggest the Antichrist would...

d taylor, You said, "Elijah was taken up in a whirlwind into heaven the sky part of heaven, not heaven where people who die now go." I am not familiar with any scripture that directly states we go to heaven when we die. As a matter of fact, arnt we to wait for the son of man to come in the...

They are there to witness. They are not there to stop a Kingdom.

I would point you to Jeremiah 5:14 "Therefore this is what the LORD God of Hosts says: "Because you have spoken this word, I will make My words a fire in your mouth and this people the wood it consumes" I would not take the fire issuing from their mouth to be literal fire. They are preaching...

I don't want to go off topic, but I would like to respond. I did not name anyone when I wrote that reply. As we grow, we see our own misgivings and regret them, just as you did to your own. We all get frustrated. Many of us believe we have certain issues figured out. And when others confront us...

Keras, Is the leader a horn or a head of the beast? If you think he's not a horn and is indeed a head, can you please provide scripture to support that. As a writer of biblical studies on prophecy, I'd be interested in what that research has shown you.
