That's FANTASTIC, Praise God!!!

Me, it was both drugs and alcohol.

Romans 13:11
And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.

Bye-bye Mr Sandman, hello Living God!

Even John had to be "woken up" in Reve 11:1 ehehe

Revelation 11:1 And was given to me a reed like-as rod saying "rouse!/egeirai <1453> (5669)! and measure! the sanctuary of the God and the altar and those worshipping in him

Romans 13:11 And this being aware/knowing the time, that hour already ye out of sleep to be roused/egerqhnai <1453> (5683), for now nearer of us the Salvation than we believe [Reve 7:10, 12:10, 19:1]

1 Corin 15:52 in instant in twinkle of eye in the last Trumpet for he shall be Trumpeting and the dead-ones shall be being roused/egerqhsontai <1453> (5701) uncorruptible and we shall be being changed.

Indeed. The anti-Christ, is none other than the one whom was against God, against "Christ", from the beginning. THere is nothing new under the sun. It hath always been so. His time is short. He knows this. The anti-Christ, in essence is he, the enemy who was so from the begiining, the father of lies, the deceiver, and his instruments are all he uses as puppets to do his bidding. In unison, he and they join forces against Jesus Christ and all those who love Him...thus the "anti-Christ".

It was always so, and will always be so, till such a time as God has appointed that only He knows of.

I think that the ruler of this world in which we live is Satan. He is ruling us now and we wil be saved by him when the time comes. That is why bad things happen to good people. It is not God testing us it is Satan trying to rip us from God.

That is true - the ruler of this world -- and the "god of this world" 2 Cor 4:4 are the devil.
Luke 4 the devil says "the world is mine - i give it to whomever I wish" --
5 And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.
6 And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.
7 If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine.
8 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.

The great cosmic battle in Rev 12 is with the devil, the dragon, the serpent of Eden ... not with a handful of Jews.

Christ's battle was with the devil in Matt 4 and Luke 3, and it is the devil in John 14:30 that Christ is talking about as the god of this world -- so also in 2Cor 4:4 the "god of this world' blinds all mankind that chooses not to accept the Gospel.

The ruler of creation is God almighty.
The ruler of corrupt mankind is "the prince of the power of the air" which appears to be a name for Satan.
I tend to agree.
If you put it in a Jewish 1st century perspective, the Temple/Sanctuary in Jerusalem is the place of Satan's throne in Revelation, as the synagogues are where the Jews congregated in the NT, IMHO

Romans 16:20
The yet God of the Peace shall be crushing the Satan under the feet of ye in swiftness.
The grace of the Lord of us Jesus Christ with ye.


Reve 3:9
Behold! I am giving out of the synagogue of the Satan, to the ones saying themselves Jews to be and not they-are, but are false......

Act 22:23
And as they cried out, and cast off their clothes, and threw dust into the air, G109

Neh 9:1
Now on the twenty-fourth day of this month the children of Israel were assembled with fasting, in sackcloth, and with dust on their heads.fn


Lam 2:10
The elders of the daughter of Zion Sit on the ground and keep silence;
They throw dust on their heads And gird themselves with sackcloth.
The virgins of Jerusalem Bow their heads to the ground.

Revelation 18:19
And they cast dust upon their heads and cried-out lamenting and mourning saying "Woe! Woe! the great City, in which are-rich all those having ships in the sea out of her preciousness!
that in one hour She was desolated.
