Yes. Watermark and Oyster won't be there to clue them in on the deception. He will initially make a peace treaty (which he will later break).the rider on the white horse with a "BOW [/deception]");
I agree that the peace treaty happens at the beginning, but I think this verse might refer to more than that. It gets worse as the trib progresses.Let me just add: I don't think 1Th5:3's "WHEN... SAY" means this lasts 3.5 yrs
Yes. And this is how we know that the Rapture is pre-trib.Rapture, if one holds to that or the soon return of the Lord, both do NOT know the day or hour. No Person can tell us Jesus is coming in a year. that is Arrogance
ok, I do not think you understood my question.As I see the text, it states:
--"confirm [/strengthen] a covenant" (likely ['strengthening'] one having already been in existence, "strengthening" it, i.e. putting it into effect)
--"with the many" (I can't say whether this "WITH" means "ALONG WITH" [as though all participants are doing same, ALONG WITH when THE OTHER IS ALSO] OR that this "WITH" means, "[with] TWO distinct PARTIES" [as in, he is one side, the many are the opposing side, but coming together FOR this "covenant"... such as a peace treaty would be, between two opposing parties coming together FOR that purpose);
--"[with] THE MANY" - it seems that Scripture elsewhere uses the phrase "the many" to refer to Israel (those in the nation of Israel), so where it says "WITH THE MANY," I don't want to say I know with certainty that it's "ALONG WITH the many" WHEN THEY DO [this thing, TOO]" (all together), OR as TWO opposing parties COMING TOGETHER FOR it (to "strengthen / confirm" it "FOR ONE WEEK [7 yrs]");
I do believe that "the prince THAT SHALL COME" (v.26b) is not saying he will exist when "the PEOPLE OF" him do the "shall destroy the city and the sanctuary" stuff in the first century (Lk21:23,20; Lk19:41-44; Matt22:7; etc); I DO believe "the prince THAT SHALL COME" is not [Jesus] / the Messiah the Prince of v.25,26a... but is DISTINCT from that reference (and corresponds with both 1Jn2:18 "YE HAVE HEARD [<--phrase pointing back to OT words] that antichrist IS COMING" and the "whose COMING" 2Th2:9a / Dan11:36-37 [PRIOR to MID-point in 12:1,6-7])
I could present much more... and will if you think more evidence is needed than what I've provided...
[to be clear, SEAL #1 rider on white horse [INITIAL "BP"] with the "BOW [/DECEPTION]"... who [will-future] "went forth conquering and to conquer" (at the START of the "IN QUICKNESS" time-period) IS the KICK-OFF of the "7 yr period... "Our Rapture" will have ALREADY taken place by that point (Rev5:9 "hast redeemed US... out-of EVERY...")]
Let me just add: I don't think 1Th5:3's "WHEN... SAY" means this lasts 3.5 yrs
Where do you find this in scripture?I believe it is the Abrahamic Accords involving Mohammed Bin Salman...
This is the peace before the great trib.I agree that the peace treaty happens at the beginning, but I think this verse might refer to more than that. It gets worse as the trib progresses.
1 Thessalonians 5:3
“For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.”
It could still be mid trib. Because there is really no event which leads us to know the 70th week has started..Yes. And this is how we know that the Rapture is pre-trib.
Where do you find this in scripture?
I understand when you say it SOUNDS LIKE. I always believed that alsoDan 9:27 "And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week"
The "confirming the covenant" sounds like a peace treaty or agreement.
And "confirm" sounds like the treaty has already been in place with multiple countries already (which the Abrahamic Accords has). Countries already signed w/ Israel are the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Sudan, Morocco and Qatar.
Just last week, Netanyahu said "I think we can have a quantum leap if the Saudi leadership decides that it wants to be formally part of this. Informally, they're part of this." That sounds like the talks of signing the peace treaty have already been underway. Uniting against Iran will be a huge motivator for both countries.
And I am just speculating right now that Mohammed bin Salman could be the AC...we don't know yet and he won't be revealed until after we are raptured (if the pre-trib rapture theory is correct). If we get raptured mid or post trib, we'll defintiely know who he is.
I have heard of this, I read it somewhere, I can not remember whereAn interesting video to watch (pre trib rapture) is called Before the Wrath. You have to pay to watch it (I think about $20) It is on Vimeo. Once you purchase it you can watch it as many times as you like. It is worth a watch. It compares the rapture to a Jewish wedding.
Ive seen it or one similar, it was fascinating!An interesting video to watch (pre trib rapture) is called Before the Wrath. You have to pay to watch it (I think about $20) It is on Vimeo.

Absolutely yes, the LXX should always be used for long-span genealogy/chronology purposes (the LXX rightly adds something like 1800 years total from Adam). But it makes no difference to the topic of the time of the SC.Hey guys, do you know if CJ Lovik has considered the dating of the Septuagint version of Genesis also? I believe the there is around an additional 600 years of history there when counting the ages of each generation / father between Shem and Abraham? Some say the dating present here is more accurate and accounts for building of pyramids / Noah's flood?
It is also the correct Biblical analogy. Used with unerring deliberate frequency.Ive seen it or one similar, it was fascinating!
Yes there is. As TDW has elaborated on in great detail. Over and over again. Stated 3X in 2Thes 2 alone.Because there is really no event which leads us to know the 70th week has started..
Whoops. Don't know how that happened. INDETERMINATE.It is also the correct Biblical analogy. Used with unerring deliberate frequency.
The Bride is harpazo'ed before the tribulation ever begins. She enjoys her intimate 7 year honeymoon with her Husband in the Father's house. THEN after 7 year are finished, the already married Groom and Bride return to the earth for the WEDDING SUPPER/FEAST.
This supper goes on and on for an inseminate period of time. Maybe forever practically.
