The Apocalypse....as is kind of sort of given in the Bible over and over again.....the earth will be cleansed, and restored....
Agreed.
the Angel's (souls, spirits of the people) will also be cleansed....
Where in the Bible are angels ever said to be the "souls, spirits of the people"?
A man in white will appear in the clouds, whose face is not clear....everyone on this earth will see this man; no matter where they stand......
How do you know his face will not be clear?
But if you wish to believe that man in Satan, that is your choice.
Why would anyone believe he is Satan?
those who kill another human being, will inherit the Mark......
Where is this in the Bible?
Rev 13:16 Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead,
Rev 13:17 so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. (ESV)
the Heavenly Host does not go to WAR
In the Apocalypse? That they go to war is all throughout the Bible.
Rev 2:16 Therefore repent. If not, I will come to you soon and war against them with the sword of my mouth. (ESV)
Rev 19:11 Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse! The one sitting on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he judges
and makes war.
Rev 19:12 His eyes are like a flame of fire, and on his head are many diadems, and he has a name written that no one knows but himself.
Rev 19:13 He is clothed in a robe dipped in blood, and the name by which he is called is The Word of God.
Rev 19:14 And
the armies of heaven, arrayed in fine linen, white and pure, were following him on white horses.
Rev 19:15
From his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations, and he will rule them with a rod of iron.
He will tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty.
Rev 19:16 On his robe and on his thigh he has a name written, King of kings and Lord of lords.
Rev 19:17 Then I saw an angel standing in the sun, and with a loud voice he called to all the birds that fly directly overhead, “Come, gather for the great supper of God,
Rev 19:18 to eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of captains, the flesh of mighty men, the flesh of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all men, both free and slave, both small and great.”
Rev 19:19
And I saw the beast and the kings of the earth with their armies gathered to make war against him who was sitting on the horse and against his army.
Rev 19:20 And the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet who in its presence had done the signs by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped its image. These two were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur.
Rev 19:21
And the rest were slain by the sword that came from the mouth of him who was sitting on the horse, and all the birds were gorged with their flesh. (ESV)
Sorry, but I had to come back to this........if God said everything He needed to say in the Book of Matthew.....why did Luke, Mark and John have to "go over" some of the same material/events again....specifically prophecy of what's coming.....why would the Holy Spirit need to guide those men to repeat what had already been given.....
Firstly, it gives us multiple corroborating witnesses to the life, ministry, death, and resurrection of Christ. Second, they were all written for different purposes and audiences. Matthew was largely written to Jews, to shows how Jesus fulfilled a number of OT Messianic prophecies. Mark was written to Gentiles, possibly in Rome, and possibly to prepare them for martyrdom. The style it is written in makes it possible that it was written to be acted out, like a play. Luke was written, it seems, to a particular person, Theophilus, that he "may have certainty concerning the things [he has] been taught" (Luke 1:3-4). John's gospel is different from the synoptic gospels and his goal is to reveal more about who Jesus is and why we have salvation through him alone (John 20:31).
Third, they all tell us some different accounts or give different details of the same account, though there is much crossover. But, that fits perfectly with my first point. Fourth, the more books the better, as it would disseminate the good news much quicker.
More points could be made as to why there is more than one gospel written, but even so, there are a number of good reasons why there needed to be more than one.
I do know how a lot of Christians feel about that Bible....but good old common sense should be in there somewhere....
Yes, it should, and I have given some of that:
2Ti 3:16 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,
2Ti 3:17 that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work. (ESV)
This means the Bible in its entirety, which is precisely why we do not add or subtract from it. Common sense tells us why if anything is in direct contradiction to the Bible, we do not accept it as from God.
Believe it or not....this is real life, and what is coming is based on real life
Of course this is real life, however, one's memories may or may not be real life. Feelings, emotions, dreams, and memories can all lead astray, and all are easily manipulated by Satan and other people, which is why we stick to the Bible as the final authority on Christian belief and practice.
