This guy is a preterist Edward, that means he does not believe Revelation is coming to pass, he believes it's already past. The first scripture he used is missing the fact the stars are still there, and the 6th seal is not yet released.During the 6th and 7th seal, Jesus returns, the World hides from the face of the lamb........ NOT YET HAPPENED!!!
In fact he said the 6th seal is conjecture. He also wrongly said there is more mega quakes, and that is not true.
Answer this Edward, He used this scripture at the start.
And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.
(Rev 6:12-13)
He says it might be the Japan tsunami, with this scripture.
He forgot to read the rest of events.
And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
(Rev 6:16-17)
Has Jesus come to show his wrath yet Edward? We out of mercy here? According to the video, this has already taken place, if He used the rest of the scriptures.
Mike.
He's not a preterist. You may have to watch more of his vids to realize it but he's not. He seems to express ideas as could happen/may happen and so forth, probably to encourage personal study and to not appear as if he is carving things in stone which usually always invites drama from people who see things differently. I understand that.
I'm learning to do that myself. It's a good strategy because I myself have changed views on certain things over time that I thought I was solid on. So a presentation of probably is, but I could be wrong keeps my mind open and more able to receive new ideas truths...Keeps me teachable.

No, Jesus has not shown His wrath yet, and it would be a big event when that happens, but I don't see how the Japanese tsunami could be the day of the Lord's wrath. More along the lines of...wars and rumors of wars, earthquakes and so forth in divers places, that stuff. The signs of the times, signs and seasons and so forth.
Scripture teaches us all over that no one gets or has all of the answers about anything, that everyone gets a piece of the puzzle and the body comes together in unity to have it all. This is how this stuff should be approached I think. Steve, from Discover Ministries is doing a bang up job, but in now way do I think that he is absolutely correct about everything. what he has to say, and keeping in mind that he may be right about some but not all, then go study and pray for myself.
A pastor being wrong about this or that is to be expected but it wouldn't mean that he is to necessarily be avoided completely or labeled a false prophet as people sometimes tend to do...
