    What I see might occur after this war with Israel and Hamas.

    What I think is soon to happen, according to the events laid out in Daniel 11, is the Syrian based Shi'ia, backed by the Iranians' (the king of the south's, Ali Khameini) will create chaos in Israel's north border. This will lead to the rise of king of the north, becoming strong with a small...

    The 144000 will welcome Jesus 2nd coming at Zion

    They are the hunters: Jer 16:16 KJV Behold, I will send for many fishers, saith the LORD, and they shall fish them; and AFTER will I send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain, and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks. They will go unto the 4 corners of...

    Ezra 6:14

    Most scholars date Oct/Nov 539 as the time that Cyrus conquered Babylon, i.e a landmark event. More than once, the Bible labels Cyrus's decree to liberate the Jews as the "first year of Cyrus". Ezra 5:13 equates that liberation to him being the king of Babylon, in his first year. Ezr 5:13...

    Ezra 6:14

    I do, but I'm not sure you are fully prepared to hear it. But I would say that you are more prepared than 99% of those who will read this. Understanding all that I have written to you in this thread, puts you in the 1%. When Daniel was given the 70 week prophecy in the 1st year of Darius the...

    Ezra 6:14

    Just a brief comment here. When scripture speaks of the Nth year, in this case , the 6th [and 7th years] of Artaxerxes, it means that a period of time has elapsed equal to somewhere between 5 years and 1 day UPTO 1 day shy of 6 years. So, IF the regnal year of begins in the 5th month of the...

    Ezra 6:14

    Yes. From Ezra's account (and Nehemiah beginning work on the wall early on in the 4th month) we see that the regnal time of Darius/Artaxerxes probably begins around the 4th or 5th month of 522 BC. Ezra 7 states that Ezra ARRIVED in Jerusalem in the 5th month of the 7th year of Artaxerxes. It...

    Ezra 6:14

    Neh 2:1-13 KJV 1 And it came to pass in the month Nisan, in the twentieth year of Artaxerxes the king, that wine was before him: and I took up the wine, and gave it unto the king. Now I had not been beforetime sad in his presence. 2 Wherefore the king said unto me, Why is thy countenance sad...

    Ezra 6:14

    Yes, 522-486 are the 36 years of Darius' reign, with the temple being completed in 516 BC, being only the 23rd year since the decree of Cyrus, and only about 14 years after the death/end of Cyrus' reign in 530 BC. Here is the issue that I want you (and others) to see. The work on the...

    Ezra 6:14

    You need to make some tweaks to your chart and how you understand things. Let's start with the focus of Ezra 6. It's focus is the building of the temple, according to the decrees of Cyrus, Darius [and/even] Artaxerxes. Go to the following website to help you understand that the decrees to...

    Last days

    For starters, I would say that "days" is referring to how God has spoken to us. He includes the prophets [to the Fathers (of the children of Israel) ]and then 'lastly' he includes Jesus having spoken to us. As a starting point, I wouldn't include the days of the prophets as being part of...

    Last days

    One would do well to compare what it says in Joel, from which Peter quoted. Joe 2:28 KJV And it shall come to pass AFTERWARD, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: Act...

    The real rapture that makes sense

    Our appearance with him in glory, will be by Jesus "with all the saints", being brought before God the Father... 1Th 3:13 KJV To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints. When Jesus comes...

    The real rapture that makes sense

    Col 3:1-4 KJV 1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, [SEEK Things that are above WHERE???] where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. 2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. 3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God...

    Times of the Gentiles

    I guess people forget that the overwhelming purpose of the Passover and the feast of unleavened bread is in REMEMBRANCE of what God DID in delivering the children of Israel from their bondage in Egypt, It was but a very vague, but true, foreshadowing of the work of the cross. And Jesus has...

    Times of the Gentiles

    The old temple rites of the offering the blood of sacrificed bulls and goats never had as its purpose the "taking away of sins", so why do so many think that the building of another temple would have that [taking away sins] as its purpose ? Another temple will be built that will not negate the...
