>> When Old Testament ideas are too literally pulled into New Testament practice, that’s what you get.<<

So God didn’t bring the people from all nations to reform the nation of Israel as it is recorded in the Old Testament prophesy?

>> All churches will have lost their believers and we have a very interesting new scene on earth by this time.<<

Revelation 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

I pray that you are correct and those who are truly “His” will have come out of her and those are the ones we speak to here in these forums. We don’t know who they are. We only have the obligation to be spokesmen.

We really need to reference specific scripture here. In general, though, Israel and believing Gentiles have been united through Christ into a new entity, the church.

There will be new Christians through the preservation of existing witness. Hence, a people to warn out of the sphere of the “Whore.” But what becomes of what was left of old Christendom’s infrastructure... who knows... sounds to me like a possible basis for such a “Whore.” Some pan-post-Christianity or whatever the serious removal of the Holy Spirit’s ministry allows to happen.

Anyhow, we need to rightly divide the word of truth and not get so excited over screaming “Whore” that we don’t apply some educated Christian sense to what that might actually mean. The (non biblical) story about crying Wolf comes to mind.
