    2 Thessalonians 1

    In 2 Thess 1:1-10, the Apostle Paul seeks to encourage the Thessalonians saints, who were enduring a time of severe persecution. He exhorts them to stand fast in the faith, taking comfort in the knowledge that God saw their suffering, and that the day was approaching when Jesus would return to...

    the feasts of Israel and prophecy

    29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes...

    Already dwelling in New Jerusalem

    I can remember as a child, being astounded to learn that some stars had burned out long ago, and only appeared to be there; that they were so far away, their light was still making its way toward me--at 186,000 miles per second. The idea that I was looking at stars that weren't even there...

    the feasts of Israel and prophecy

    Many are familiar with the seven Jewish feasts, especially the first one: Passover. But many may not know that these feasts represent a precise prophetic timeline of events concerning both the Church and the nation of Israel. The crucifixion of Jesus coincided perfectly with the Passover; His...

    the devil's reprieve

    Actually, we know very little about the lake of fire. We know it was created as punishment for the rebel angels, that man, having engaged in the same sin of rebellion against God, is--apart from Salavation--destined for the same punishment, which is referred to as the second death. We know it is...

    the devil's reprieve

    We know the lake of fire was created for satan and his rebellious angels (Matt 25:41). Why wasn't he there, instead of in the garden, instigating the events that produced the corruption and fall of the human race?

    It's been here all along

    In the modern era in which we live, we are surrounded by technological marvels that would have seemed impossible a few hundred years ago. Just a century ago, men walking on the moon; a box in your house that could show events happening on the other side of the world; traveling around the...

    thief in the night

    Hi everybody, I'm sure some of you already knew this, but I learned of it just recently, and thought it would be of interest to those not already familiar with it: The "thief" analogy that Jesus applied to the time of His return--borrowed by Paul and Peter to refer to that same day as the day...

    Online Bible study

    Yeah, I see now that I should have worded that a little differently. In fact I think I'll redo the post so people will realize what I'm describing, since a lot of people could benefit from the site. Thanks. --Randy

    looking for and hastening

    Hello Sparrowhawke, My understanding that the saints are delivered the same day that the wrath of God is poured out on the unsaved--the day of the Lord, was a turning point for me in my study of eschatology. The "same day" principle Jesus taught in drawing a parallel between His return and the...

    looking for and hastening

    But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what...

    eagerly awaiting the day of the Lord

    But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what...

    What did Paul not like about Mark ?

    And some days after Paul said unto Barnabas, Let us go again and visit our brethren in every city where we have preached the word of the Lord, and see how they do. And Barnabas determined to take with them John, whose surname was Mark. But Paul thought not good to take him with them, who...

    Proof: Snakes had legs before the curse.

    I think it's quite possible that the serpent was actually a winged dragon rather than a mere snake, as most believe. (That would explain where the flying serpent legend originated). At any rate, this much is certain: if the serpent was already crawling in the dust, the curse upon him would be...

    the 10 kings

    Could an international entity such as the G10 develop into the 10 kings in Revelation--who briefly become latter day vassals when they conspire to hand over control of their nations to the beast? If so, is it likely that the U.S. will be one of the 3 nations uprooted by the beast/little horn...

    who is known for beheading today?

    There is a lot of speculation about the prominent role Islam will play on the end times stage, which seems to bear some validity. Some even feel the antichrist may be Muslim. In that regard, it's interesting that the book of Revelation specifies that the saints who refuse to submit to the beast...

    "666"
