    The War To End All Wars

    And we know this passage is speaking of the judgment of Jerusalem because it had happened before: Ezekiel 5:8–9 (NKJV) 8 therefore thus says the Lord GOD: ‘Indeed I, even I, am against you and will execute judgments in your midst in the sight of the nations. 9 And I will do among you what I have...

    what needs to happen for the end times to arrive ?

    "Thus also, before the Jews’ rebellion, and before those commotions which preceded the war, when the people were come in great crowds to the feast of unleavened bread, on the eighth day of the month Xanthicus [Nisan], and at the ninth hour of the night, so great a light shone round the altar and...

    Revelation Chapter 17

    More internal evidence of the early dating of Revelation comes in John's letters themselves. Revelation 3:17–18 (NKJV) 17 Because you say, ‘I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing’—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked—18 I counsel you to buy...

    Revelation Chapter 17

    Another interesting point to note: In Revelation 7, John writes of the 144,000 elect from the 12 tribes of Israel sealed for service to Christ's kingdom during the Sanhedrin's persecution of the saints; a persecution in which Saul/Paul enthusiastically undertook. Revelation 7:4–8 (NKJV) 4 And I...

    Revelation Chapter 17

    Revelation wasn't written after 70AD. In fact, it could not have been written later than June of 68AD, when Nero died. The case for this is in the identity of the "7 kings": Here is the mind which has wisdom: The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sits. There are also seven...

    Revelation Chapter 17

    Revelation is, in part, a story of not one but two tribulations (as foretold in Matthew 24:9 and Matthew 24:21). The first 7 chapters deal primarily with the tribulation of the saints, as best seen in John's letters to the churches of that time. Chapters 8-20 deal with the "great tribulation"...

    what needs to happen for the end times to arrive ?

    What needed to happen has already happened. "This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come. Matthew 24:14 Mark 16:15,20 15 And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. 20...

    The Lord shows Abraham the future...

    OK Jason, here is the thread that puts and sees the NT promise of Christ's coming properly and squarely in the Jewish perspective, where it belongs. :) http://www.christianforums.net/showthread.php?t=47966&pagenumber=

    The Lord shows Abraham the future...

    How anyone can read themselves into the words of the NT 2,000 years later is simply stunning for its hubris. The same apostle that wrote that everything in the book of Revelation was slated to happen "soon" because the events were "at hand" also wrote that they were living in "the last hour."...

    The Trinity

    When I saw Him, I fell at His feet like a dead man. And He placed His right hand on me, saying, "Do not be afraid; I am the first and the last,and the living One; and I was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of death and of Hades. Revelation 1:17-18 (NASB) "Who...

    Gave you some here: To which you responded: Which merely proves you're not interested in discussion. You use questions like these: As an opportunity to ambush and belittle those who respond. Why are you “evenhere?" Your idea of "discussion" isn't befitting a Christian web forum.

    The Lord shows Abraham the future...

    He already did. God, after He spoke long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many portions and in many ways, in these last days has spoken to us [Hebrews] in His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the world. Hebrews 1:1-2 (NASB) Like all futurists...

    Not a single one. Futurism, however, distorts and demeans the word of Christ thus defaming Him and denying the gospel.

    The Lord shows Abraham the future...

    No one is discounting the word of God here but you and you do it very time you take things completely out of context, precisely as you have with this passage. The bible cannot mean anything if you can change such clear, simple language into anything you want it to mean!!! I'm not...

    The Lord shows Abraham the future...

    I agree, Jason, which is why I have argued here often that the New Testament cannot be understood through the eyes and experience of 21st century American evangelicalism: it absolutely must be understood through the lives of the men who wrote it and when. All the writers of the NT (except...

    The Lord shows Abraham the future...

    So the church isn't the bride of Christ yet? Paul would disagree with that point of view: Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church, He Himself being the Savior of the body. But as the church...

    :rolling:rolling:rolling I'm not the one disregarding His words!!! You are!!! THEN JESUS SAID TO HIS DISCIPLES!!! It is perfectly clear by these few, simple words, He was not talking to demons, angels, or people living 2,000 years later as the text continues: SOME...STANDING HERE...WILL...
