THANKS THANKS.
WELL DONE.
Fascinating.
Allow me a bit of silliness here Quix...
You (Israel)long for the day of the Lord,but when it comes,it will be death and destruction and darkness,you have fled from the "lion" of Judah and will be met by a (Russian) "bear" you will enter your temple only to have satan bite you.
These sure are interesting times brother,I'm glad I know where I stand with God thanks to Jesus.
Grace and peace to us all.
Dear Mitch,
I call that anointed interpretation.
NOT silliness.
Thanks.
Could they be all three types?
1) actual churches at John's time
2) actual church types at all times during the church age
3) the 7 church ages over time, we being presently in the laodicean age.
All;
Here’s an interesting site of proposed AC’s . . .
I personally do not believe it will be any of those listed—though it’s perhaps remotely possible with some of them.
I believe that the real one is still insuring that he’s operating almost totally in the shadows and under any radar. That could change at any moment.

“Rules for Radicals” begins with an unusual tribute: “From all our legends, mythology, and history (and who is to know where mythology leaves off and history begins or which is which), the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom Lucifer.”

And this 7 years claim, yes, Daniel says 7 years, however, Christ said Himself that TIME has been shortened for the ‘elects’ sake. All events described would still occur however, as with ‘labor pains’ once they start there is no stopping them.
1. I’m emphatically confident that there will be THE AntiChrist . . . satan incarnate in human flesh . . . for all practical purposes. I don’t think Scripture allows for less than that.
2. Have long pondered what time shortened meant. . . . each day shorter . . . less days . . . what? However, God seems to go to great lengths to spell out the 3.5 years of both halves of the 7 years—several different ways.
There have been all matter and manner, of flesh against Christ inhabitants to trod this earth. HOWEVER, not ONE has presented himself as the 'supernatural' saviour. Who tempted Christ, twisting scripture? Sure was no flesh entity. Christ set the standard, He gave us the literal example of what would take place yet again. There is NO such scripture that hints or suggest there is anything 'incarnate' about the devil.
When Christ walked this earth He told Satan to 'get thee behind Me', and literally speaking that is where the devil has been since that order.
However, his spirit is allowed to go to and fro until Michael tosses the serpent, dragon, (and the rest of those names attributed to the first of the Heavenly Father's creation that rebelled) down unto us pretending to be Jesus.
So long as you or any of the rest of us are still in flesh bodies the Saviour has not returned. But the supernatural fake does get tossed out of heaven first, that is the tribulation.
Yes indeed there is great lengths to spell out this 7 year appointed time. But then Christ makes the announcement, because of the 'elect's' sake, no 'flesh' would be save, time would be shortened.
Now is it not true that when we depart these flesh bodies the dye is cast as to our 'standing' after flesh dies? Now Christ uses the word 'flesh' not soul, and he is specifically referencing the 'elect', those that Paul describes in Ephesians, 'chosen' (or elect) BEFORE the foundation of this earth age. IT is for their cause the 'temptation' or tribulation would be such they would be deceived by the miracle performing pretend Jesus that is going to get tossed down upon us.
Those 'set' aside ones delivered up for a testimony, that are not to premeditate what to say but allow the Holy Spirit to do the testifying, are the cause for literal time of the 7 years to have been shortened.
Christ said it would be as in the 'days' of Noe (Noah) so it is prerequisite that one fully understand alllll of what Genesis 6 instructs to comprehend the full description that Christ has instructed. Remember Christ said I have foretold you all things.
I don’t recall running across such a perspective before.
Not my perspective.
Thx.
Hmmmm
Thanks for the ping!
They missed the guy I consider my favorite “candidate”. Actually, they missed my top 4.
I have no great affinity for that site and certainly no need to defend it.
It was merely an interesting site on the topic which another FREEPER FREEPMAILED me about.
I thought some on the list might find it interesting.
I agree with you about your understanding about the AC.
What a tease!
So they are???
Actually, they did get one candidate, B.O. , but I think he is highly unlikely.
1)Sarkozy
2)Blair
3)Solana
I think they are all forerunners . . . preparing the way.
Could be. But #1 really piques my curiosity.
