"Ditto. I'm getting sick and tired of "replacement theology." The replacement theologians call the Christian (predominantly gentile) church "Israel," then - of course - want to appropriate the promises to Israel, but of course none of the judgements. And of course, America is "Babylon."
Tell me about it! Yes we have Armstrong and his insane babblings ... . Clancy is becoming some sort of a prophet for his nonfiction ramblings and on and on it goes. It never dawns on them to pray for guidance and READ the Bible for themselves.
"It is a self-centered, myopic view that believes God's dealings with man began with 20th century Christians. Not only that, but it utterly ignores the fact that the Book of Revelation is based on O.T. books like Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Amos, and especially Daniel, to name a few. In fact, if you look at Daniel 12 compared to Revelation 12, they look almost like a thought-for-thought transcription!
ABSOLUTELY! Our Jewish friends can easily follow what is going on in the Old Testament. Consisitent prophecy is throughout the Bible. In fact, it'shard to miss.

Yes ... I'm just waiting for the peace declaration ... .
"The next judgement to befall mankind from God will come then, and the Final judgement will come at the "Great White Throne Judgement," at the end of the age."
Indeed! As saved individuals we will have to account.
"These attacks were the result of man's free - if evil - will towards other men. They did not come from God, and I wish so-called pastors would stop presuming to speak for God on this score. They are libeling Him. "
You are sooooo right! Well we both know that there IS a falling away from the Word of God. This too is in prophecy. If ONLY people stop being spiritually lazy, ask for guidance and READ it. Instead the response is "Changing the subject ... when pressed for some validation of this nonsense.
Truly it is a pleasure to see you. Feel free to e-mail me. I always enjoying hearing from you. I don't always catch your postings.
I have would agree, if that is what the author said, but it is not. God is soveriegn, He allowed it. It got our attention, or did it?
