   Jacob's trouble

   Jer 30:7 Alas! for that day [is] great, so that none [is] like it: it [is] even the time of Jacob's trouble; but he shall be saved out of it. Jacob's trouble is often taught as a feature of the yet future tribulation, when Israel will suffer for the purpose of salvation. Is the trouble in the time of Esther the proper fulfilment of that prophecy? Est 3:13 And the letters were sent by posts into all the king's provinces, to destroy, to kill, and to cause to perish, all Jews, both young and old, little children and women, in one day, [even] upon the thirteenth [day] of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, and [to take] the spoil of them for a prey.

   Well, I re-read Revelation tonight. To Chapter 20 (I skimmed through 21-22) I was still confused (more than before). So I looked back at some other relating scriptures. I think the Holy Spirit lead me; because, it at least to me it seems to have pieced together like a puzzle. Though I don't know if I've heard of anything exactly like what I pieced together before.. I'm not done; I'm planning on continuing tomorrow. So I was hoping you all could check and let me know what you think so far. I'm posting Revelation 6-7 with the references (pieces) I think fit together in it. Hopefully you all will let me know if you think I'm on the right track or not. I've been wrong before …

   Our Noah's Ark The last prophecy letter by Michae1 This letter is dedicated to all Christians Our time here is getting short. Therefore, I've decided to construct one final outline of prophetic events. These prophetic events, which I've been writing about and debating for over two decades, are now heading towards a conclusion. Therefore, it is important that this letters purpose be understood. This letter is an interpretation and will move fairly fast with limited explanation. I hope it is understandable to all. Since Christianity began, believers have always been taught to have faith. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen, He…

   Jews preparing to rebuild Third Temple 1 2 3

   • 8.2k views

   I'm not sure if any of you are familiar with him, but Dr. Jack Van Impe believes that some Jews are preparing the way for Jesus and the building of the 3rd temple is a sign of Jesus' imminent return. On the contrary...I believe that the building of the 3rd temple is preparing the way for the Antichrist rather than Christ, and that the Antichrist sitting in the temple will be part of the strong delusion that God will send (2 Thess. 2:11), because according to Luke Christ is to sit upon the throne of David and rule in Jerusalem (Ps. 132:11,12; Is. 9:7; Ezek. 37:24,25; Amos 9:11-15; Lk. 1:32,33, etc.) and the Antichrist will mimic this event. As a result of this many will be…

   Yankee Candle's posting of pictures of the RCC reminded me of something. God loves us. I remember creating something like that many years ago. I didn't have much back then, and I was under attack almost instantly. And I prayed about for it, and God answered that prayer. First, I advertised the site on google ads because I didn't know how to get the message out, because no one would listen, or help, and because of censuring messages. I only had $50 to advertise, and I received it all back. Second, I put it up on an ISP I no longer have an account with for a long time, and it is still up. Its been preserved. Third, it was put in a newspaper for the pope arr…

   Evidence for the satanic age and preparation for Antichrist I would like to offer a great deal of evidence that we are living in a post-Christian, satanic age in which the devil is preparing the hearts and minds of millions to receive his man, antichrist. While the designation (satanic age) is my own description the biblical teaching for such a time is based on: "Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils." I Timothy 4:1 I am nearly 60 yrs of age and for over four decades I have been carefully OBserving the times we live in compared with the prophecies of the …

    Origins of Pre-Trib Rapture Teaching 1 2 3

    In my studies I am always looking for resources for end times events. I have been looking for some writings regarding Pre-Trib rapture prior to the early 1800's. If any of you have any articles or reference to any commentary written regarding Pre-Trib rapture prior to the 1800's I would love a link, or name of a book. I realize some will say the Bible is where it is found so I thought I'd go ahead and say, o.k. to that, but please show me where some men of God in times past (prior to the 1800's) have made some record of comment thereto. Thanks, Bro. Ben

    What to Do in Case You Miss the Rapture 1 2

    1. Prepare to die. Throughout the Tribulation period, which is what follows the rapture, nearly four billion people will die according to Revelation. What that means to you is, that if are in it right now, do not plan on making it out. 2. Read the King James Bible. Realize you are a hopeless sinner in need of a Savior, Jesus Christ. Believe He died, was buried, and rose again. Ask Him to forgive you of your sins, and the best way you know how receive Him into your heart. Make the KJB your best friend, there will be plenty of false Christs out there, don’t trust anyone or anything but the KJB. 3. Educate yourself a little on what is coming in the next seven years. In th…

    Why Some Dispensationalists are Like Evolutionists 1 2 3 4 5

    Why Some Dispensationalists are Like Evolutionists By Gary DeMar | Published: May 24, 2010 Millions of Christians are fixated on what is going on in Israel today. Ever since Israel became a nation again in 1948, prophecy writers have insisted that this event is a prophetic sign that we are nearing the conclusion of the so-called Church Age. When 1988 came and went (40 years after Israel’s modern founding), a new paradigm had to be found to explain why the rapture had not taken place before the end of 1988, as Hal Lindsey and Chuck Smith had predicted, and before the new millennium, as Jerry Falwell and John F. Walvoord had predicted. There was a lull in the prophetic s…

    A Case for Pre-wrath rapture 1 2

    Below is the most recent work I've done on the Pre-wrath rapture. I know I have posted alot on the topic, this is somewhat of an orderly collection of what I have observed from scripture and church history up to this point. A Case for Pre-Wrath Rapture We have through careful study of scripture found the bible teaches a pre-wrath rapture instead of pre-trib. This flies in the face of popular theology, but the testimony of scripture and the majority of careful, conservative theology for the last 2000 years of church history, bears witness to this. Here are a few quotes from the early church regarding the church being delivered just before the great tribulation (the …

    I am not here to debate. I am here to give a message to the church regarding the end times. Many Pre-Tribbers assume that the church is not mentioned within the chapters of Revelation 4-18 therefore this is proof the the church will not endure the Tribulation. However, in Revelation, the Greek word "ekklesia" always refers to a "local" church (the church of Laodicea, Sardis, Ephesus, Smyrna, etc.) and addresses them (all) in the plural and not once refers to it as the universal church. There are not going to be local churches during the Tribulation. You're not going to go to Calvary Baptist church during the Tribulation period. The word church is not mentioned during 4-18…

In my bible reading today in Rev 8, third is referred to more than once. I also know that the lucifer fell that he took a third of the host of heaven with him.

    The mental preparation for Antichrist

    Satan has been mentally preparing the human race for a full acceptance of Antichrist. I would like to describe some of the ways he has been doing this in modern times; When Moses faced off with Pharaoh we discover that Pharaoh 'hardened his heart'. But we are also informed that God 'hardened' pharaoh's heart(Exodus 4:21). How are we as believers to understand this in light of the fact that God tempts no man according to James 1:13? Answer: it wasn't a 'temptation'. Pharaoh, being a hardened sinner, being exposed to the light of God's truth, yet did not like it, was already pre-disposed to reject what the Lord revealed to Him. To answer how God 'hardened' his heart: the …

People are talking about the end of the world, or the end of this age. The Mayan calendar ends in December 2012, and many are wondering if that could be the end of the world as we know it. But one of the more fascinating things we face when looking at the End Times is that Final Person who is coming to planet earth. Friends in Israel have told me that Jewish people there think we might be getting close to the time of Elijah coming back. Many Christians believe that with the world upheava…

    Greetings to all who which to join this discussion. I am guessing that many if not most of the people on this site believe that there will be a 1000 year reign here on earth. This is not a true teaching of the Bible. The kingdom is not something that is future but has already been established. As support of this statement I offer the following support. Daniel 2:44 tells us that a kindom will be set up in the days of these kings. What kings? The Roman kings of course. Matt 16:18-19 Jesus tells us that He will build His church which is the Kingdom Mark 9:1 Jesus tells His disciples that there are some standing there who will not taste death until they see …

    As I have stated before...I am a pre-tribber, however, I do have difficulty with many of the pre-trib arguments. This is from personal bible study and listening to apologetics teachers. Here is a sermon that presents good arguments concerning the post-trib view. Now I am not trying to disseminate the post-trib view to anyone on this forum, but I do want to here your interpretations refuting his post-trib position so I can stand firm in my pre-trib position. Thanks in advance! Please listen carefully: Pre-Trib or Post-Trib Love, Madeline

    I study the Word of God very closely and desire to come closer to God, but during these times I sometimes notice oddities that seem unanswerable. Well, I've noticed something odd about the context of Rev. 5:8,9: "And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints. And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;" Does the "us" in verse 9 refer to the 4 bea…

    Could a "stray planet" be God's instrument of judgment?

    April 14, 2009 by robycop3

    • 13 replies

    I tend to believe that God will use a "stray planet" or some planet-size body as the instrument to bring about His punishments upon the earth.(Dunno if it'll be one of the known planets of the solar system or a wanderer from "out yonder".) I say this because I think God will use a physical, visible "agent" so unbelievers will attribute the disasters to "bad luck" and not a controlled event from God. First, JESUS says: "And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the …
