You are correct here in that, the identity of the two witnesses is not disclosed. However, it is plausible that the two witness could be Enoch and Elijah, both of whom never physically died. ========================================== Oh, but scripture does say that the church will be in heaven...

Hello Runningman! There is going to be a gathering of the church prior to God's wrath, which is initiated by the first seal being opened. Matt.24:31 is describing that gathering of the great tribulation saints (Rev.7:9-17) who make it alive through the time of God's wrath until the Lord returns...

Greetings azamzimtoti! Jesus described the great tribulation as a time of great tribulation such as the world has not seen, from the beginning of creation, until now and never to be equaled again. That said, the destruction of the temple and siege of Jerusalem does not fit that criteria. As an...

Hello Nehemiah! I would add, that it is not just the 6th and 7th seals, but all of the seals, trumpets and bowl judgments. Jesus is the One opening the seals. The 1st seal rider on the white horse which represents the revealing of the antichrist, the 2nd seal rider on the red horse which takes...

Greetings Deuteronomy! The Day of the Lord is not the great white throne judgment, but is that seven year period which takes place after the gathering of the church. It is not a day in length, but represents a time period where the seals, trumpets and bowl judgments will take place. It is the...

You got it Crossnote! Believers are not appointed to suffer any wrath, whether the seals, trumpets or bowl judgments, nor eternal wrath. "But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and the helmet of our hope of salvation. For God has not...

You should know that when I teach something regarding the word of God, it is not by my own interpretation, but what I have garnered from scripture. That said, that we are 'credited with righteousness' is the perfect scriptural word to describe what God has done for us through His Son...

Greetings and Welcome, LouDot!

God bless you, Lafftur for your desire for the truth and to live a Holy life. This demonstrates that you are truly in Christ. As one of the scriptures states, those who are in Christ will not be able to go on sinning, i.e. deliberately, willfully. And that because the seed of God remains in us...

Hello again, Lafftur! The following is from "Gotquestions" which conveys what I have been trying to get you to understand. I hope this will shed some light on the subject as to whether those in Christ still commit sin. Please read all of it, including the last paragraph. Question: "Do...

Yes, the blood of Christ does cover our sins, but that does not mean that we as believers do not commit sin. It means that through faith, your sins are covered as long as you continue in faith. If one stops having faith and goes back into willfully living according to the sinful nature, then...

Hello again! If you are looking for a different word to describe one kind of sin from another, you are not going to find it. The way to understand what John is speaking about is through what John is describing, i.e. through the context...

Greetings and Welcome to Christian Chat, Anu!

By the way, the best answer for this is that, the Roman Catholic Church (RCC) is Babylon the great. She's the woman who rides the beast. The RCC and her future pope is going to be used to bring the world underneath the Roman Catholic Church. According to her, all other sects of Christianity...

Mary is not the mother of God. Mary is the mother of Jesus in in regards to His humanity. How can Mary be the mother of God when the Lord existed in heaven before He came in the flesh? Again, how can Mary be the source of her Son's divinity when He existed as God with the Father from eternity...

Amen! See you there.

Actually, we are going to contend for the truth. From the time we became believers, we began on a journey of being transformed into the image of the Lord, i.e. taking on the nature of God through the Holy Spirit. Like gold, we are continually being refined. The idea is that, as we continue from...

"the penalty of sin" which Jesus already paid for. It does not mean that we don't have sin. We are forgiven for our sins past, present and future, if we continue in faith. If we turn back to willfully and deliberately living according to the sinful nature (spiritual darkness), then we have...

Here Paul makes a good description of the believers state of being: ===================================================== We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin. 15I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do...
