    How Might Anti-Christ Arrive?

    I think only Daniel 2 is history, and the context of Daniel 10. Each part of Daniel 7, 8, 9, 11, and 12 talks about end times events, and there's really no transition for "this is historical stuff, this is end times stuff" it's just Gabriel explains what's going to happen at the time of the...

    How Might Anti-Christ Arrive?

    Rosh is a Hebrew word that means "head" or "chief" or "root" basically the primary of something like Rosh Hashanah "Head of the Year" "Rosh" is used almost 600 times in the bible, and always means head or chief or root so no it is not Russia. It's "Chief Prince" or "Head Prince" IE the leader.

    How Might Anti-Christ Arrive?

    It's the 2nd largest Army in NATO, Israel is tiny, yes they do. They're the 10th most powerful military in the world. They're also a major drone manufacturer, in fact Russia has been having trouble in Ukraine partly to Turkish Bayraktar drones. like 5 of the regions listed in Ezekiel 38...

    Did Jesus go to hell during the time that he was in the grave?

    Kinda sorta. He went to "hell" in the sense of "Hades" or "Sheol" a place of the dead, where some are tormented, and some comforted as Jesus described in Luke 16. He did not get tormented, but rather triumphed over the principalities/fallen angels that are imprisoned. In Colossians 2:15, it is...

    How Might Anti-Christ Arrive?

    Meschech and Tubal in Ezekiel's day were in Turkey. That is still north parts. Anything north of Mount Hermon was "the uttermost north" They never traveled anywhere near Russia. Point out where in scripture God warns about Russia to make Ezekiel 38:17 true. Because otherwise apparently God...

    How Might Anti-Christ Arrive?

    Gog is the little horn. Ezekiel 38 There is literally nothing in scripture about some Russian dictator being warned about in the prophets. But the one we call Antichrist has been warned about since Balaam. Numbers 24:7 is translated as Agag however in some versions like the Septuagint, it's...

    Bible Q and Advice Needed with Scripture

    Oof on that one, lol Yeah unfortunately some people will go with the KJV because they believe it "sounds like the bible" and that's just because it's the most familiar version. It's fine to adopt that version because it's so widely adopted and agreed upon that it's a good translation, but it...

    You shouldn't gumby stretch to make the bible fit your idea. You should fit your idea to what scripture says.

    Futurist Only Leaving a Rapture note for unbelieving family

    There's nothing in the bible about post rapture salvation from a plain meaning. Only when someone forces a doctrine like pretrib rapture, and then assuming all the saints are a new class of people "tribulation saints" is there this idea. It's not biblical. Jesus didn't warn about 5 foolish...

    How Might Anti-Christ Arrive?

    Daniel 8:9 describes an empire coming from "Javan" which is the Ionian people, who settled in Greece and western Turkey. Not Rome, or Western Europe.

    Bible Q and Advice Needed with Scripture

    That's the worst kind of manipulation in a Church, to use a language that you don't speak, not allow you to cross reference so that HE can tell you what it means (kinda like the Catholic Church insisting on Latin for a very long time, even though it was not a language people learned after the...

    Bible Q and Advice Needed with Scripture

    Well, the problem here is that many teachers allegorize scripture, when scripture says one thing they take it to mean something else because it's "spiritual" I have heard from some Catholics, now mind you it won't be all Catholics, probably not majority even, that the fruit itself was sex, they...

    How Might Anti-Christ Arrive?

    Well there's nothing in scripture about the Jews coming back into Israel apart from when God does it. So about all we can do is, we see this happening, and God said it would happen, so we act in faith that God has done this because He said He would do it. What else can we do? Look to the Word...

    How Might Anti-Christ Arrive?

    True, we aren't to know WHEN. Only the Father knows the WHEN exactly but we were given a roadmap of WHAT will happen. That is why I argue for Daniel being prophecy rather than history, because it gives us a road map from which to watch, to know how things progress, so that we can rely on the...
