Lord Jesus, please strengthen our sister by your grace. Please give her peace of mind and a heart that continues to seek you. (KJV 28:20) "Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, evenunto the end of the world. Amen."

I decided I would read the entire Bible this year. I started in Genesis and will end in Revelation. I have read most of the entire Bible but had not read some of the OT. I was in the hospital for just over two weeks and read Genesis through Psalms. There was nothing to do but read, so I...

Welcome to Christian Chat. (KJV 2 John 1:3) "Grace be with you, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love."

The commentator was using the ESV. The ESV, RSV, NRSV, CJB and WNT are the only translations to use ‘but’ instead of ‘and.’ 5She gave birth to a male child, one who is to rulea all the nations with a rod of iron, but her child was caught up to God and to his throne, (ESV Rev. 12:5). “Of...

It’s my view that the vision of Revelation 12 speaks of a future event as John hears is Rev. 4:1 "Come up here, and I will show you things which must take place after this." I don’t see it as referring to the Lord’s ascension which was a gradual ascending into a cloud, not a forcible ‘catching...

There is the Rev 12:5 harpazo of the 'child' who was 'caught up unto God, and to His throne.' The 'child' represents living believers who will rule and reign with Christ during the Millenium. The 'Man-child' (Jesus) rules; the 'child' is caught up, but they can be viewed as one 'first-born...

Yes, the signs the Lord spoke of in Matt. 24:4-8 are visible. The situation with Russia and NATO continues to deteriorate.

This concept of ‘tribulation wrath’ that is associated with the Tribulation Period suggests that all of Daniel’s 70th week is the wrath of God. There is no mention of a concept of ‘tribulation wrath’ in Dan. 9:27. I understand why pre-trib proponents have done this, but it is misleading. The...

I also of course recognize the 144,000 Israelites as having their own unique role to play in Daniel’s 70th week. Like you, I recognize ‘those who are wise’ in Daniel 12:3 to be the literal 144,000 Israelites. They are described as ‘first fruits’ to God (Rev 14:4). Their mission will be to...

Yes, I'm aware that you are a proponent of the pre-trib theory, and the strict dispensationalism it entails. Understandably, I've received similar comments in the past when making reference to that scripture. I don't hold to the same interpretation of Daniel’s 70th week, with its...

I also think there is a faithful/unfaithful remnant. The glorified faithful remnant described as 'they that turn many to righteousness' in Daniel 12:1-3 will be the ones sharing the gospel with those who are in danger of becoming apostates (Isaiah 60:1-3, Mark 16:15, John 14:12). I believe in...
