however nowhere in the bible does it even suggest that GOD would cast away the nation of israel. he has given them a promise through abraham, issac and jacob(renamed israel) that HE would give them the land that abraham walked on and that they would be the head of all nations, that has not happened at all in the history of the world.

= = = = =

ABSOLUTELY CORRECT. Great points.

There are many anti Christs and then The Anti Christ who will want to be worshiped as God. He will insist on it. Is he here now waiting to reveal himself? Could be.
= = = =

I think it's exceedingly likely he is in the world as an adult now. The many reports of his doings are quite believable, to me. I think Kathleen Keating's website has some stuff on him.

KATHLEENKEATING.COM

I do not believe we are yet in THE GREAT TRIBULATION. We may be in the earlier stages or middle stage of the birth pangs before such.

I personally believe that God used Y2K to get a lot of people alerted to and prepared for the END TIMES. He has a history of warning repeatedly which man has a history of ignoring repeatedly.

Don't recall if I replied first time thru or not. But I wholeheartedly agree that the LaHaye series are a great trigger, launch into further exploration of Biblical truths and priorities.

If you have not read the series, then it is a bit much to criticize them or his motive.

I can't wrap my mind around that, at all.

Doesn't fit my construction on reality, at all.

Thanks.

I'll answer it, then. YES! IT'S THE END TIMES PREDICTED IN SCRIPTURE--OLD AND NEW TESTAMENTS!

I look forward to your comments.

The destruction of Jerusalem was worse than the Flood??? How about WWI or WWII and Viet Nam, Korean War...Six million Jews at the Holocaust...How about the destruction of Carthage under Scipio??? What about the destruction of Kiev under Ghengis Khan??? The Crusades???...Atom Bombs in Japan???

Many scholars believe that the prophesy addressed both issues separately. That is to say that one part of the prophesy addressed the end times and the other addressed the destruction of the temple. Note that Christ told them that not one single stone would be unturned, and the Roman general that destroyed the Temple did indeed destroy not only the building, but destroyed the entire foundation and had it plowed up so that no stone literally remained unturned.

I don't speak Greek, so it's hard for me to have a concrete opinion on it either way other than this: operate under the assumption that at any moment Christ could make His appearance.

I hate to break it you people, but the majority of the adult males in 1948 when Israel was formed are either dead or well on their way. Only the very youngest would still be alive, and they would be in their upper 70s by now. If we take Christ's prophesy to mean that the generation alive when Israel became a nation again would live to see the Day of the Lord, then the Bible is dangerously close to being forsworn. Now, we all know that God does not lie. The logical conclusion of all this is that, perhaps, the fig leaf spoken of in the prophesy does not, in fact, represent Israel.

Depends on which poster. I think many of the catholic freepers here don't do this. OTOH, if it's sinkspur you're talking about, that's different. If you even breathe next to him, he'll figure out some way to construe it as anti catholic.

The Beast will usher in a time of worldwide prosperity before things start coming apart.

= = = = =

Interesting.

I read somewhere this last several months . . . a doc which insisted that the puppet masters have enough cash reserved to give every global citizen I forget how many 10's of thousands of USD as well as wiping out their mortgage debts etc.

If that preposterous assertion turns out valid, one can bet that a SLAG--an implanted ID would be the catch.

To: Just mythoughts

I appreciate your explanations.

If I had to bet, I'd still bet that it means less number of hours per day instead of less number of days. Still seems to me that the latter would have meant he'd not have taken such great pains to spell out specificially a precise number of days as He did 2-3 different ways.

Christ said specifically that the *days* would be shortened.
= = = =

In English--that can me either of 2 things:

1. Less hours in a day.
2. Less days in the period concerned.

I certainly don't try to keep up on the interniecine wars.

I'm trying also to avoid participating in them.

I'm sure I've been complained against by the TULIP folks at least as much or more than about anyone else hereon Roman or whatever other persuasion.

Thanks.
