Admin	OUR SINS ARE FORGIVEN BY THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST Posted : 3 Dec, 2016 06:57 PM ARE WE ONLY REDEEEMED AND OUR SINS FORGIVEN BY THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST?? John 13:34,35: Jesus says, "A NEW COMMAND I give you: Love one another AS I HAVE LOVED YOU, so you must love one another!" John 15:12,13: "Jesus says, "My command is this: Love each other AS I HAVE LOVED YOU. Greater love has no one than this, that HE LAY DOWN HIS LIFE for his friends!" Matthew 26:28: Jesus says, "This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many FOR THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS!" Galatians 2:18-21: I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me! The life I live in the body, I live by FAITH in the Son of God, who loved me and GAVE HIMSELF FOR ME!! I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!! Hebrews 9:12: He entered the Most Holy Place once for all by HIS OWN BLOOD, having obtained ETERNAL REDEMPTION! Hebrews 9:22; 26-28: The law requires that nearly everything be cleansed with blood, and without the shedding of blood THERE IS NO FORGIVENESS.... But now He has appeared ONCE FOR ALL at the end of the ages to do away with sin BY THE SACRIFICE OF HIMSELF!! Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, and Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people, and He will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for Him!! Ephesians 2:13: But now in Christ Jesus you who were once were far away have been brought near THROUGH THE BLOOD OF CHRIST!! Hebrews 10:8-10: First He said, "Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings You did not desire, nor were You pleased with them," although the law required them to be made. Then He said, "Here I am, I have come to do Your will." He sets aside the first TO ESTABLISH THE SECOND. And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ ONCE FOR ALL!! Romans 3:21-25: But now a righteousness from God, APART FROM THE LAW, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. This righteousness from God comes THROUGH FAITH in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by HIS GRACE through the REDEMPTION that came by Christ Jesus. God presented Him as a SACRIFICE OF ATONEMENT, THROUGH FAITH IN HIS BLOOD!! Romans 4:6-8: David says the same thing when he speaks of the righteousness of the man whom God credits righteousness APART FROM WORKS. "Blessed are they whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man whom sin the Lord WILL NEVER COUNT AGAINST HIM!"{David was inspired to write this in Psalm 32:1,2} Isaiah 1:18: "Come now, let us reason together," says the Lord. "Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow!!" Colossians 1:15-20: He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by Him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities, all things were created by Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together. And He is the HEAD OF HIS BODY, THE CHURCH; He is the beginning and the firstborn from the dead, so that is EVERYTHING HE MIGHT HAVE THE SUPREMACY. For God was pleased to have all His fullness dwell in Him, and through Him to reconcile to Himself all things, whether things ON EARTH or things in heaven, by making peace THROUGH HIS BLOOD, shed on the cross!! Colossians 2:13-15: When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your sinful nature, God made you ALIVE WITH CHRIST. He forgave us ALL OUR SINS, having canceled the written code, with its regulation, that was against us and that stood opposed to us, He took it away, NAILNG IT TO THE CROSS!!. Ephesians 1:3-8; 11: Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with EVERY spiritual blessing in Christ. For He chose us in Him before the creation of the world to be holy and BLAMELESS in His sight. In love He predestined us to be adopted as His sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with His pleasure and will--to the praise of His GLORIOUS GRACE, which He has freely given us in the One He loves. In Him we have REDEMPTION THROUGH HIS BLOOD, THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS, in accordance the riches of God's grace that He lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding!! I Peter 1:18,19: For you know that was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were REDEEMED from the empty way of life handed down to you by your forefathers, but with the PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST, Lamb without blemish or defect!! I Peter 2:24,25: He Himself BORE OUR SINS in His body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness, by HIS WOUNDS we are healed{See Isaiah 53:5,6}!! For you were like sheep going astray, but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls!! I Peter 3:18 For Christ DIED FOR SINS ONCE FOR ALL, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God!! I John 2:1,2: My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have One who speaks to the Father in our defense--Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. He is the ATONING SACRIFICE FOR OUR SINS, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world!! I John 4:10-12: This is LOVE, not that we loved God, but that He LOVED us and sent His Son as an ATONING SACRIFICE for our sins. Dear friends, since God so LOVED us, we also ought to LOVE one another. No one has ever seen God; but if we LOVE one another, God LIVES IN US and His LOVE is made complete in us. Revelation 1:4,5: Grace and peace to you from Him who is, and who was, and who is to come and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful Witness... To Him who loves us and has freed us from our sins BY HIS BLOOD!! 11/16/2016 1:23:36 PM * False Prophets * flag post \| hide posts from this user quote reply prophetic774 Over 7,500 Posts!!

WE ARE ONLY REDEEMED AND OUR SINS FORGIVEN BY THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST?? {CONTINUED} NOTE: Jesus Christ our Savior is called the LAMB 30 times in the book of Revelation. Revelation 5:6,9: Then I saw a LAMB, looking as if it had been slain, standing in the center of the throne...You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals because You were slain , and WITH YOUR BLOOD You purchased men for God from every tribe and language and people and nation!! Revelation 12:11: They overcame him by the BLOOD OF THE LAMB and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death!! Revelation 7:14: These are they who have come out of the Great Tribulation, they have was their robes and made them white in the BLOOD OF THE LAMB!! Isaiah 53:5,6: But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him, and by His wounds we are healed! We all, like sheep, have gone astray , each of us has turned to his own way, and THE LORD HAS LAID ON HIM THE INIQUITY OF US ALL!! Romans 5:6-10: You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless. Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates His love for us in this: While we were still sinners Christ died for us. Since we are now justified BY HIS BLOOD, how much more will we be saved from God's wrath through Him! When we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to Him THROUGH THE DEATH OF HIS SON!! Post Reply

INTERESTING 70 YEAR TIME PERIODS IN BIBLE PROPHECY!! It is interesting to note that the Kings of Israel ruled 490 Years or 70 YEARS times 7 years, which was immediately followed by a 70 YEAR exile of the Jews, which was then immediately followed by the amazing prophesy of the 70 YEARS times 7 years Prophecy in Daniel 9:24-27; which will end with the 2nd coming of Jesus and EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS!! Also in the prophecy of the 70 YEARS times 7 years it states in Daniel 7:26 "The people of the {Roman} ruler who will come will destroy the city {Jerusalem} and the Sanctuary." This prophecy was fulfilled and the Jews exiled again in AD 70 until the rebirth of Israel at midnight, May 14th, 1948!! The 70 YEAR Anniversary of the rebirth of Israel will take place at midnight on MAY 14TH, 2018?? Daniel 9:24-27: Seventy "sevens" {70 YEARS times 7 or 490 years} are decreed for your people and your holy city to ANOINT THE MOST HOLY {After 483 Years}, to ATONE FOR WICKEDNESS {After 486 1/2 years} and to bring in EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS {On the Last Day of the Last 1260-day Tribulation or 490 total years}...From the issuing of the decree {By King Cyrus--See Isaiah 44:28} until the Anointed One comes {On October 5th AD 29}, there will be 62 7's and 7 7's {Or 69 7's or 483 years}... Then {3 1/2 years or 1278 days later} the Anointed One will be cut off...He will confirm a Covenant with many for one 7 {Or the Last 7 years}. In the middle of the 'seven' {After 3 1/2 years} He {The Anointed One} will put an END TO SACRIFICES and offering.{On April 3-5 AD 33} {And then after a long pause} He will set up an abomination that causes desolation {666} for 1260 days, until the decreed end is poured out on him at the 2nd Coming of Jesus {As per Rev 19:19,20 and 2 Thess 2:8} Which will bring in EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS on the Last Day of the 70 YEARS times 7 Prophecy! Luke 3:21,22: When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as He was praying, heaven was opened, and the Holy Spirit descended on Him {ANOINTING} in bodily form like a dove. And a Voice came from heaven, "You are My Son, whom I love, with You I am well pleased!" Matthew 18::21,22: Peter asked Jesus, "How many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me?" Jesus answered, "I tell you, not 7 times, but 70 times 7 times!" {See NIV footnote} Jesus is called the Son of David 17 times and David lived exactly 70 YEARS as per 2 Samuel 5:4. Acts 1:6,7: The disciples asked Jesus, "Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?" Jesus said , "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by His own authority." Luke 21:5,6,23,24: Some of His disciples were remarking about how the Temple was adorned with beautiful stones and with gifts dedicated to God. But Jesus said, "As for what you see here, the time will come {In AD 70} when not one stone will be left on another, every one of them will be thrown down!... There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations {In AD 70}. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are FULFILLED!" This prophecy was FULFILLED and The kingdom was restored to Israel at midnight on May 14th, AD 1948. It is interesting to note that 70 YEARS after midnight, May 14th, 1948 will be at midnight, MAY 14TH, 2018!!??? By a very interesting coincidence this prophesy and the rising of Jesus to heaven took place exactly 40 days after the Resurrection of Jesus when our Savior put an end to all sacrifices for sin in the middle of the last 7 years of the 70 YEARS times 7 years !! The Resurrection of Jesus took place on April 5th, AD 33 and 40 Bible days after April 5th, AD 33 would be ASCENSION DAY and would have been on sundown, May 14th AD 33 to sundown, May 15th, AD 33!! And so midnight, May 14th, AD 1948 is on ASCENSION DAY and 70 YEARS later at midnight, MAY 14TH, 2018 would also take place on ASCENSION DAY!! Acts 1:1-3; 6-11: I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach until the DAY He was taken up to heaven... After His suffering {On April 3-5 AD 33}, He showed Himself to these men and gave many convincing proofs that He was alive. He appeared to them over a period of FORTY DAYS {Until ASCENSION DAY which was from sundown, May 14th to sundown, May 15th AD 33} and spoke about the kingdom of God...So when they met together, they asked Him, "Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?" Jesus said to them, "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by His own authority {Which took place on midnight, May 14th, 1948}... After He said this, He was taken up before their very eyes, and a cloud hid Him from their sight . They were looking intently up into the sky as He was going, when suddenly TWO MEN {Moses & Elijah} dressed in white stood beside them. "Men of Galilee," they said, "Why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven will come back in the same way you have seen Him go into heaven!!" {On the Last Day of the 70 YEARS times 7; when he will bring in EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS!!} Numbers 28:16: �On the 14th day of the 1st month the Lord�s Passover is to be held.� Exodus 12:6,7,12,13: �Take care of them {The Passover Lambs} until the 14th day of the month when all the people of Israel must slaughter them {See Lev 23:5} at Twilight {Just after sundown to nightfall}. Then they are to take some of the blood and put it on the door frames of their houses. On that same night I will strike down the firstborn of the Egyptians� but when I see the blood I will PASS OVER you.� Deut 16:1: �Observe the month of ABIB and celebrate the PASS OVER of the Lord your God, because in the month of ABIB He brought you out of Egypt by night.� Lev 23:6: �On the 15th day of that month the Lord's 7-day Feast of Unleavened Bread begins.� Luke 22:7,8: Then came the day on which the Passover Lamb �Had� to be sacrificed. Jesus said, �Go and make preparations for us to eat the Passover.� Christ became our Passover Lamb on Passover Day! 1 Cor 5:7: �For Christ our PASSOVER LAMB has been sacrificed.� Whereas the Jews {who were following the evil Babylonian moon calendar} held their Passover on the 15th of Nisan {Which always occurs on the night of a full moon} and observed the Passover on the WRONG DAY as per John 18:28: �Then the Jews led Jesus from Caiaphas to the palace of the Roman Governor {Pilate}. By now it was early morning, and to avoid ceremonial uncleanness the Jews did not enter the palace; for they wanted to be able to eat the PASSOVER!!� Which would have been the day �AFTER� Jesus correctly held the Passover on the 14th of ABIB which God had commanded. So we can assume that the month of ABIB is different from the Babylonian moon month of Nisan and therefore has nothing to do with the moon. When does the first month of the Bible Year called ABIB begin?? Many Bible scholars believe that it may begin of the first day of SPRING or sundown March 20th to sundown March 21st. ABIB is the Hebrew word for SPRING. And so the 14th Day of ABIB can also be translated the 14th day of SPRING!! And so Jesus became our Passover Lamb on Passover day which is always the 14th day of the month of Abib and is always from sundown April 2nd to sundown April 3rd And the Resurrection Day of Jesus is always on the 16th of Abib which is always from sundown, April 4th to sundown April 5th each and every year. And ASCENSION DAY is always 40 days after Resurrection Day which is from sundown May 14th to sundown May 15th each and every year. And so ASCENSION DAY is 56 days Or 7 X 7 + 7 DAYS of the Bible Year. And so midnight May 14th, 1948 is 56th or 7 X 7 + 7 DAYS of the Bible Year and the 70TH Anniversary of the rebirth of Israel at midnight, May 14th, 2018 is also 7 X 7 + 7 DAYS after the first day of the Bible year. 1260 days after the 70TH Anniversary of the rebirth of Israel on MAY 14TH, 2018 would be on OCTOBER 25TH, 2021 and the LAST DAY would be OCTOBER 24TH 2021 to OCTOBER 25TH, 2021. OCTOBER 24TH, is exactly 217 days after the first day of the Bible year on March 21st. And so OCTOBER 24TH, 2021 is exactly 7 30-day Bible months plus 7 days after the first day of the Bible year when the 7th angel may sound the 7th and last trumpet at the second Coming of Jesus who will open the 7 SEALS of the End-Times and who will bring the 7th DAY REST for the people of God. {Read Revelation 5:9 and Hebrews 4:9} Jesus has {7} horns and {7} eyes which are the {7} spirits of God sent out into all the earth.{See Rev 5:6} and {7} mighty angels who stand before the throne of God. INTERESTING SPECULATIVE QUESTION?? Will something interesting happen related to the 70 YEARS times 7 Prophecy; take place exactly 70 YEARS after the rebirth of Israel at midnight on MAY 14TH, 2018?? Such as the beginning of the Last half of the 70 YEARS times 7.{The 1260-day Great Tribulation} or the coming of God's two Israeli witnesses {Moses and Elijah} for their 1260-day testimony; or the signs that will take place shortly before the Great Tribulation??? This, of course, is just a very interesting SPECULATION! If for example the 1260-day Great Tribulation begins on the 70TH Anniversary of the rebirth of Israel at midnight MAY 14TH, 2018 which is 7 X 7 +7 days of the Bible year; then it would end 1260 days later on midnight OCTOBER 25TH, 2021 and the LAST DAY would be from midnight, October 24th 2021 to midnight October 25th 2021; and sundown October 24th 2021 is exactly 7 months and 7 days of the Bible year.when the 7 angel may sound the 7th and Last Trumpet. Sundown, October 24th is exactly 217 days after sundown, March 21st and 217 days are 7 30-day Bible months plus 7 days and may be the Last Day of the 70 7's Prophecy which will bring in EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS! As we have shown The 70TH Anniversary of the rebirth of Israel is on May 14th, 2018 which is also ASCENSION DAY and the 56th day or 7 X 7 + 7th day of the Bible year!! Immediately after the Resurrection Day of the saints; mentioned in I Thessalonians 4:16,17; we read in I Thessalonians 5:4,5: But YOU, BROTHERS, are not in darkness so that THIS DAY should surprise you like a thief. You are all sons of the light and sons of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness!! Revelation 3:3: Jesus says, "Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; obey it, and repent. But *IF* you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you!!" When the 1260-day Great Tribulation begins or the 1260-day testimony of Moses and Elijah begins 1263 1/2 days before the Last Day; the saints will then know the exact Last Day when Jesus will come with EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS which will begin on the Last Day of the 70 YEARS times 7 !! Question? Why did Jesus reduce the Great Tribulation or last half of the Last 7 years in Daniel 9:27 from 3 1/2 years or 1278 days to 1260-days or 42 30-day months? Matthew 24:21-22: Jesus says, "For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now {See Daniel 12:1,2}--and never to be equaled again. If those {1278} days had not been CUT SHORT, no one would survive, bur for the sake of the elect those {1278 } days will be shortened!" {to 1260 days} And so the 1278-day Great Tribulation and reign of 666 will be shortened by 18 or 6+6+6 days. By comparing Revelation 12:6 with Revelation 12:14 we know that 1260 days and time {360 days} times {720 days} and 1/2 a time {180 days} is the exact same period of time. And by comparing Revelation 13:5 with Daniel 7:25 we know that 42 30-day months and time {12 months} times {24 months} and 1/2 a time {6 months} is the exact same period of time! And therefore 1260 days and 42 30-day months is the exact same period of time! WHAT SIGNS WILL TAKE PLACE SHORTLY BEFORE THE BEGINNING OF THE 1260-DAY GREAT TRIBULATION?? ARE SOME OF THESE SIGNS OF THE END-TIMES TAKING PLACE RIGHT NOW!!?? Matthew 24:3-6,9: The disciples asked Jesus, "What will be the sign of your coming and the end of the age??" Jesus answered, "Watch out that no one deceives you. For many will come in My name, claiming: 'I am the Christ;' and will deceive many. You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen but the end is still to come." {Luke 21:11 adds: Jesus says, "There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven!"} "Then {During the 1260-day Tribulation} you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by ALL NATIONS because of Me!" 2 Timothy 3:1-5: But mark this: There will be terrible times IN THE LAST DAYS People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God--having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them. I Timothy 4:1-2: The Spirit say that IN LATER TIMES some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron. Daniel 12:4: Daniel, close up and seal the words of the scroll UNTIL THE TIME OF THE END! MANY WILL GO HERE AND THERE to INCREASE KNOWLEDGE!! The INCREASE IN KNOWLEDGE and inventions in the last 110 years through Worldwide RADIO, MOVIES, TELEPHONE, TELEVISION and the INTERNET has been unbelievable compared to all the knowledge and inventions before that time!! MANY PEOPLE GOING HERE AND THERE and everywhere has fantastically increased in the past 115 years with amazing AUTOMOBILES, MOTORCYCLES, BUSES, TRAINS and AEROPLANES!! Matthew 24:15: Jesus says, This Gospel of the Kingdom will be preached in the WHOLE WORLD as a testimony to ALL NATIONS and THEN THE END WILL COME!" The preaching of the Gospel throughout the WHOLE WORLD to even remote islands in the Pacific has just recently been COMPLETED!! WHAT ARE THE 4 AMAZING PROPHECIES CONCERNING ISRAEL THAT ALREADY HAVE BEEN FULFILLED OR ARE BEING FULFILLED ?? Jesus says, THIS GENERATION will certainly not pass away UNTIL ALL THESE THINGS HAVE HAPPENED" {Matthew 24:34} Psalm 90:1,10: Lord you have been our dwelling place throughout ALL GENERATIONS.... The length of our days is 70 YEARS--or EIGHTY if we have the strength! Matthew 24:32-35: Jesus says, "Now learn this lesson from the FIG TREE. As soon as the twigs get tender and its LEAVES COME OUT, you know that summer is NEAR. Even so, when you see all these things {Which Jesus prophesied in Matthew 24:4-31}, you know that IT IS NEAR right at the door. I tell you the truth, this {Israeli} GENERATION will certainly not pass away UNTIL ALL THESE THINGS {Which Jesus prophesied in Matthew 24:4-31} HAVE HAPPENED!. Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away!" After Jesus prophesied the complete destruction of the Temple the disciples asked Jesus in Matthew 24:3: "When will this {Temple destruction} happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?" It is interesting to note that the destruction of the Temple in the Olivet prophecies is only discussed by Jesus in Luke 21:20-24. Everything else Jesus prophesied before Matthew 24:32-35 above pertains to what will happen just before and during the 1260-day Great Tribulation In Matthew 24:4-31; which could possibly occur on May 14th, 2018 to October 25th, 2021. Now the Preterist believes that ALL THESE THINGS THAT HAPPENED IN MATTHEW 24:4-31 including the 2nd coming of Jesus and the stars falling from the sky all took place before AD 70. The Preterist also believes that everything in Revelation including the 42 month reign by 666 over EVERY NATION, TRIBE AND LANGUAGE also took place before AD 70 and that EVERYONE in the world except the saints worshiped 666 before AD 70 as per Revelation 13:5-8!! Matthew 21:42: Jesus said to the Jews, "The kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people who will produce its fruit." Matthew 24:23,24: Jesus says, "There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people. They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled." Acts 1:6,7: The disciples asked Jesus, :Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?" Jesus answered, Iy is not for you to know the times and dates the Father has set by His own authority!" {The kingdom was restored to Israel at midnight on May 14th, 1948!} Zechariah 13:8,9: In the whole land," declares the Lord, "Two thirds will be struck down and perish, yet one-third will be left in it. This third I will bring into the fire , I will refine the like silver and test them like gold. They will call on My name and I will answer them. I will say, "They are My people", and they will say, "The Lord is our God!" Romans 11 :25,26: I do no want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers , so that you will not be conceited. Israel {THE FIG TREE} has experienced a hardening in part UNTIL THE FULL NUMBER OF GENTILES COME IN.. And so all Israel will be saved!! {The one third who are left during the Great Tribulation} WHEN WILL THE FULL NUMBER OF GENTILES COME IN?? This will take place during the 1260-day Great Tribulation as per Revelation 7:9,13-15: There before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from EVERY NATION, TRIBE, PEOPLE AND LANGUAGE, standing before the throne in front of the LAMB. They were wearing white robes. ... Then one of the elders asked me, "These in white robes--who are they, and where did they come from?" I answered, "Sir, you know." And he said, "These are they who have COME OUT OF THE GREAT TRIBULATION, they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the LAMB. Therefore, they are before the throne of God." Jeremiah 8:13: "I will take away their {Israel's} harvest", declares the Lord, "There will be no more figs on the tree. and their leaves will wither. What I have given them will be taken from them." Matthew 21:18,19: Jesus was hungry. Seeing a FIG TREE by the road, He went up to it but found nothing on it except leaves. Then He said, " May you never bear fruit again." Joel 1:11,12: The harvest of the field is destroyed. The vine is dried up and the FIG TREE is withered. Hosea 9:10: The Lord said, "When I found Israel..it was like seeing the early fruit on the FIG TREE!" Revelation 6:13 And the stars of the sky fell to earth as late FIGS drop from a FIG TREEwhen shaken by a strong wind! Matthew 24:32-34: Jesus says, "Now learn this lesson from the FIG TREE. As soon as its twigs get tender and its LEAVES COME OUT, you know that summer is near. Even so when you see these things, you know that it is near, right at the door. I tell you the truth, THIS GENERATION will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened!" And so it is logical to assume that when Jesus said in Matthew 24:34 "THIS GENERATION will not pass away UNTIL ALL THESE THINGS HAVE HAPPENED" {In Matthew 24:3-31 including His 2nd Coming} that Jesus must be referring to a FUTURE GENERATION that must include the 1260-day Great Tribulation and His 2nd Coming!! AND SO THE PROPHECY CONCERNING THE RESTORATION OF THE KINGDOM OF ISRAEL IN ACTS 1:6,7 WAS FULFILLED AT MIDNIGHT, MAY 14TH, 19498 ISRAEL IS ALWAYS THE FIG TREE IN BIBLE PROPHECY AND ITS LEAVES STARTED TO COME OUT ON MAY 14TH, 1948 AND THE FIG TREE WILL BEAR FRUIT DURING THE 1260-DAY GREAT TRIBULATION. THE BIRTH OF THE GENERATION OF THE NEW BIRTH OF ISRAEL BEGAN ON MAY 14TH, 1948 AND WILL END 70 TO 80 YEARS AFTER MAY 14th, 1948. THIS ISRAELI GENERATION WILL NOT END UNTIL ALL THE EVENTS IN MATTHEW 24:4-31 ARE COMPLETED AS PER MATTHEW 24:32-34! There are many prophecies concerning the Jews in the end times, many of which began to be fulfilled in the 20th Century, but there are FOUR key ones {Or LEAVES}. The FIRST* is their worldwide regathering. {Isaiah 11:12}. In 1900 there were only 40,000 Jews in Palestine. By the end of World War II that number had risen to 800,000. As of May, 2016, there were 6,450,000 Jews in Israel who have come from all over the world or the FOUR QUARTERS OF THE EARTH!. According to www.Jewishvirtuallibrary.org there is a population growth rate of 1.7 % a year of Jews in Israel which would be 3.4% in 2 years. If you multiply 3.4 % times 6,450,000 you would have about 216,000 more Jews in Israel by May of 2018. 6,450,000 plus 216,000 equals *6,660,000 Jews in Israel by MAY 14 2018! The prophecies concerning the Jews before the 1260- Day Great Tribulation are the LEAVES of the FIG TREE which is Israel, But the FIG TREE will not bear FRUIT until one third of the Jews are saved during the Great Tribulation! Isaiah 11:12 He will raise a banner for the nations and gather the exiles of Israel, He will assemble the scattered people of Judah from the FOUR QUARTERS OF THE EARTH!! The SECOND key prophecy concerning the Jews is a natural consequence of their regathering. It is the re-establishment of Israel which occurred on midnight, MAY 14, 1948. Acts 1:6,7: They asked Jesus, "Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?" Jesus said to them: "It is not for you to know the times and dates the Father has sent by His own authority." This amazing prophecy was fulfilled on midnight on MAY 14TH, 1948!! And the 70 YEAR ANNIVERSARY of the rebirth of Israel and occupation of 1/2 of Jerusalem will be at midnight on MAY 14TH, 2018!! The THIRD key prophecy is the Jewish re-occupation of all of JERUSALEM which occurred at 10 AM, June 7, 1967 during the miraculous Six Day War. Midnight,MAY 14TH, 2018 is 49{7X7} YEARS plus 707 DAYS after 10 AM June 7th, 1967!! Zechariah 8:4,5,7: This is what the Lord almighty says, "Once again men and women of ripe old age will sit in the streets of JERUSALEM, each with cane in hand because of his age. The city streets will be filled with boys and girls playing there!... I will save My people from the countries of the east and the west. I will bring them back to live in JERUSALEM!" The FOURTH key prophecy is the one whose fulfillment we are witnessing today � the re-focusing of world politics upon the nation of Israel. All the nations of the world are coming against Israel over the issue of the control of the nation�s capital � the city of JERUSALEM{Zechariah 12:1-3}. The Vatican wants the city put under its control. The United Nations wants it to be internationalized. The European Union is demanding it be divided between the Arabs and the Jews. The Arabs want all of it. Donald Trump promises that he will make JERUSALEM the capital of Israel and all the Muslim nations are threatening war if this takes place, and this war could escalate into a WORLD WAR AND WORLD CHAOS!! Zechariah 12:1-3 The Lord declares, "I am going to make JERUSALEM a cup that sends all the surrounding nations reeling. Judah will be besieged as well as Jerusalem, on that day, when all the nations of earth are gathered against her!!" Jeremiah 29:12,13: This is what the The Lord Almighty says {About Jews} "I will make them abhorrent to all the kingdoms of the earth and an object of cursing and horror, of scorn and reproach among all the nations!!" On December 23, 2016, the UNITED NATIONS of the world severely condemned Israel for its settlements! December 23rd, 2016 is exactly 507 days before the 70TH YEAR Anniversary of the rebirth of Israel on MAY 14TH, 2018. 72 weeks or 72X7 would take up 504 days leaving 3 days or 72 hours. And so the time period from December 23rd, 2016 to MAY 14TH, 2018 and the possible coming of 666 would be exactly 66+6 weeks plus 66+6 hours. On December 23rd, 2016 Barak Hussein Obama abandoned America's commitment to Israel's security and the end of their democracy against Muslim aggression. In an act of cowardly venom Obama had the United States abstain from a United Nations resolution--and thereby effectively enact a United Nations resolution that completely condemns Israel and their settlements. A resolution that undertakes to render Israel indefensible. This very unfair resolution greatly increases the tension and chaos in the Middle East and gives the Muslim countries an excuse to increase their hostility toward Israel. Donald Trump has promised that the Jews could have their CAPITAL in JERUSALEM** and all the Muslim countries have promised that they would go to WAR* with Israel if this takes place and this war could escalate into a WORLD WAR AND WORLD CHAOS!! On January 24th, 2017 Israel announced that it was going to build 2,500 New Settlements on Palestinian territory which absolutely contradicts the UN resolution and would further escalate the tensions in the Middle East; and gives the Muslim countries yet another excuse to increase their hostility toward Israel. In the 7th Day of the reign or the World's most powerful leader a TRAVEL-BAN was enforced on 7 Muslim countries. This has caused a worldwide condemnation and demonstrations in the USA and condemnation in most of the countries in the world. This and possibly many more actions by the world's most powerful World leader will surely cause CHAOS throughout the world. According to the United Nations human rights body, Israel is the worst human rights vilater in the world today. That is the result of the latest session of the Human Rights Council which wrapped up in Geneva on March 24th, 2017 by adopting 5 times more resolutions condemning Israel than any other country on earth. In its history the Council has condemned Israel more than any other of the 192 UN states. Comparative totals after the sessions program tell the story: :Israel--78 resolutions and decisions Syria--29 North Korea--9 ISIS--8 and Iran--6. As for Russia and China there is nothing at all. Think of it this way: 500,000 dead in Syria, forced starvation and mass torture in North Korea. Systematic, lethal oppression and sponsored terrorism in Iran and an elementary lack of basic freedoms and oppression affecting over a billion people in Russia and China. But according to the UN Human Rights Council, little democracy Israel is by far the main evil problem in the world??? COULD DONALD TRUMP BE PRESIDENT WHEN THE GREAT TRIBULATION BEGINS?? As you know 70 7's and 666 are very prominent numbers in Bible prophecy. Someone just pointed out to me that Donald Trump was born on June 14th, 1946 at 10:54 AM which I checked out. Donald Trump became the most powerful world leader when he was inaugurated at Noon on January 20th, 2017. And so Donald Trump was exactly 70 YEARS plus 7 MONTHS plus 6 days plus 66 minutes old when he becomes the most powerful leader in the world! Donald Trump became the most powerful leader in the world at noon, on January 20th, 2017; and the 70TH YEAR anniversary of the rebirth of Israel will be at midnight, MAY 14TH, 2018. Noon, January 20th, 2017 until Noon, May 14th, 2018 is exactly 479 days and noon, May 14th, 2018 until midnight, MAY 14TH, 2018 would take place on the 480th day. 66 weeks or 66X7 equals 462 days; which leaves another 18 or 6+6+6 days!!! And so Donald Trump became the most powerful leader in the world exactly 66 weeks plus 6+6+6 days before the speculative coming off 666 who will then become the most powerful leader in the world. Trump is certainly not a saint. About 80 % of the Evangelicals voted for him because they were afraid that Hillary would select the next 2 or 3 Chief Justices who would be very tough on Evangelicals who preached against gay marriage etc. and possibly remove their tax free status. However, Trump is just as evil as Hillary or Obama. Trump's favorite pastor was the famous liberal, Norman Vincent Peale who made fun of people who believe in the inspiration of God's Word or the Divinity of Jesus or eternal hell etc, He also taught that it is moral to have a huge ego and you don't have to repent of your sins. Trump has repeatedly said that he has never repented of anything he did. Trump owned a gambling casino which really steal people's money with tremendous odds. His casino also had very lewd shows with topless women doing very sinful gyrations. Trump has had 3 wives. In the last year of his first wife he had a very open adulterous relationship with Marla Maples, his future 2nd wife, and he then made the cover of Playboy magazine. He then married his 3rd and last wife who is 25 years younger. Trump became famous for bragging to a TV reporter that he could grab women's crotches and get away with it because he is so rich, handsome and famous. About 6 months ago 10 women claimed that they were sexually harassed or fondled by Trump. When someone objects to his vulgar language or ideas he is very good at viciously attacking them and he never turns the other cheek as Jesus has commanded. Trump is very rich and loves and worships the ALMIGHTY DOLLAR Trump's favorite preacher for the past 15 years has been Paula White and she is now in the INNER CIRCLE of Trump's advisers. Paula White promotes pornography and declares that divorce is GIFT FROM GOD Paula White has made a fortune taking money from gullible people with her Prosperity Gospel. Paula White has also had an adulterous affair with Benny Hinn who is the king of those preaching the Prosperity Gospel. I Timothy 6:9,10: People who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and many foolish desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil!. Trump and Putin and China are now by far the THREE* most Powerful and Evil leaders in the world and have about 90 % of the world's nuclear bombs and would most likely embrace the coming of the evil 666! THE AMAZING PROPHECY OF ST MALACHY IN AD 1139 THAT THERE WILL BE 112 POPES AFTER AD 1139 AND THAT DURING THE REIGN OF THE 112TH POPE THE END OF THE WORLD WILL COME. POPE FRANCIS IS THE 112TH POPE!! St. Malachy was the Archbishop of Armagh, Ireland and a very good archbishop who always helped the poor. He claimed he experienced a vision while visiting Rome in 1139 AD. He said he saw every pope that would exist from the time of his vision until the last pope. The last pope would be the 112th from the time of his vision. Malachy also stated that the last pope would be a very evil pope and that God would judge everyone and the city of Rome would be destroyed during the reign of this last pope. When John Paul II died on April 2, 2005, articles were written pointing out that the pope who would replace John Paul II would be the 111th pope. Benedict XVI was 78 years of age when he began his papacy on April 19th, 2005. Because of his advanced age, it was obvious that his reign as the Bishop of Rome could not last too long. Everyone understood the next pope, according to St. Malachy, would be the last pope. Malachy also said the church would be judged, Rome would be destroyed, and implied that the end of the world would come during this final papacy. The question on everyone�s mind was: How long till the 112th pope? On February 11, 2013, Pope Benedict shocked the world by announcing his intention to resign from the papacy. This was the first resignation of a pope while in office in over 600 years. Benedict said that, at the age of 85, he no longer had the strength to execute the duties of leading the Roman Catholic Church. It was time to elect the 112th pope foretold in the vision of St. Malachy! Overlooking St. Peter�s Square, the announcement was made that Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio of Argentina had been elected the 112th pope in the prophecy on March 13th, 2013!! He was 76 years of age when elected pope and chose to take the name Pope Francis for his papal name. Francis is the first non-European pope and the first pope ever elected from the very Satanic Jesuit order. The Satanic Pope Francis is the leader of about 1,000,000,000 {One Billion} Roman Catholics and it is quite obvious that he is very evil and Satanic and possibly would qualify to be the future False Prophet of 666!! DOES POPE FRANCIS QUALIFY TO BE THE FUTURE FALSE PROPHET OF 666 WHO WILL COME UP FROM THE ABYSS OR HELL?? IS THE FUTURE FALSE PROPHET OF 666 ALREADY HERE!!?? WILL 666 COME UP FROM THE ABYSS OR HELL?? Revelation 11:7: The Beast {666} that comes UP FROM THE ABYSS will attack them, and overpower and kill them. Revelation 17:8: The Beast {666}, which you saw, once was {Alive}, now is not (Alive in AD 96}, and yet will COME UP OUT OF THE ABYSS and go to his destruction. {as per Rev 19:20 & 2 Thess 2:8} {That the Abyss is Hell is shown in Luke 8:30-31} There are many who believe that the 6th Caesar who killed Paul and Peter in AD 66 and whose name adds up to exactly 666 in Hebrew, and is now in the Abyss or hell, will come up from the Abyss and become the Beast {666}who rule the world during the 1260-day Great Tribulation. Jesus is called a LAMB 30 times in the book of Revelation and in Revelation 13:11 states the False Prophet of 666 will be LIKE A LAMB which implies that he may be a very deceptive religious leader. Revelation 17:9 shows that the future headquarters of 666 and his False Prophet will be the evil city on 7 hills or Rome {See Rev 17:9}; which is also the present headquarters of Pope Francis and the former headquarters of 666 who will come up from the Abyss!! {See Daniel 7:23-25} A Roman Catholic Priest Says Homosexuality Is Gift From God, And That The Bible Is Not The Word Of God, And Then Pope Francis Kisses His Hand And Praises Him?? A 93 year old Italian priest named Michele de Paolis, considered to be Italy�s most rebellious priest and amongst the most universally notorious advocates for the Catholic Church to change its position on homosexuality, said:, "Homosexual love is a gift from (God) no less than heterosexual. This same damned heretic said, "The Bible �is� not the word of God And now, just a few days ago, Francis, whether by his own will or through some malicious advisers, celebrated mass with this evil man and then kissed his hand???? VATICAN CITY (RNS) Pope Francis on Monday (Oct. 27) waded into the controversial debate over the origins of human life, saying the big bang theory and evolution did not contradict the role of a divine creator, but even required it. The pope was addressing the plenary assembly of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, which gathered at the Vatican to discuss �Evolving Concepts of Nature.� Pope Francis said, �When we read about Creation in Genesis, we run the risk of imagining God was a magician, with a magic wand able to do everything. But that is not so,� Francis said. �He created human beings and let them develop according to the internal laws that he gave to each one so they would reach their fulfillment.� �God is not a divine being or a magician, but the Creator who brought everything to life,� the pope said. �Evolution in nature is not inconsistent with the notion of creation, because evolution requires the creation of beings that evolve.� Giovanni Bignami, a professor and president of Italy�s National Institute for Astrophysics, welcomed Francis� comments, saying he had buried the �pseudo theories� of creationists. The pope�s statement is significant,� Bignami told Italian news agency Adnkronos. �We are the direct descendants from the Big Bang that created the universe. Evolution came from creation.� Pope Francis: says, The Church could support civil unions??? By Daniel Burke, CNN Belief Blog Co-Editor (CNN) - Pope Francis suggested in a newspaper interview that it could support some types of civil unions. The Pope reiterated the church's longstanding teaching that "marriage is between a man and a woman." However, he said, "We have to look at different cases and evaluate them in their variety." States, for instance, justify civil unions as a way to provide economic security to cohabitating couples, the Pope said in a wide-ranging interview published Wednesday in Corriere della Sera, an Italian daily. State-sanctioned unions are thus driven by the need to ensure rights like access to health care, Francis added. A number of Catholic bishops have supported civil unions for same-sex couples, including Pope Francis when he was Archbishop of Buenos Aires in 2010, according to reports in National Catholic Reporter and The New York Times. Behind closed doors, Pope Francis supported civil unions in Argentina, activist says. But Wednesday's comments are "the first time a Pope has indicated even tentative acceptance of civil unions," according to Catholic News Service. Francis delivers homilies each day, the contents of which are summarized by Vatican Radio. On May 22, 2015 he caused no shortage of confusion when he suggested that even atheists could find salvation. Obama has said the exact same thing!!! In his homily, Francis said: "The Lord has redeemed all of us, with the Blood of Christ:, not just Catholics. Everyone! Even the atheists. Everyone!" However Jesus says, "No one can come to the Father except through Me." John 1:12,13: To all who received Him {Jesus}, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God--children born not of human descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God! Pope Francis also says "Who am I to judge homosexuals." and Pope Francis states that sincere homosexuals will also enter the kingdom of heaven just like Obama. But what does God's Word say?? I Corinthians 6:9-11: Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor HOMOSEXUAL OFFENDERS will inherit the kingdom of God. {Unless they repent} And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. Responding to a list of questions published in the paper by Mr Scalfari, who is not a Roman Catholic, Francis wrote: �You ask me if the God of the Christians forgives those who don�t believe and who don�t seek the faith. I start by saying � and this is the fundamental thing � that God�s mercy has no limits if you go to him with a sincere and contrite heart. The issue for those who do not believe in God is to obey their conscience. �Sin, even for those who have no faith, exists when people disobey their conscience"???? Pope Francis expressed praise on September 25th, 2015 for Obama's ridiculous nuclear deal struck with very evil Iran during a speech at the United Nations' General Assembly in New York. "The recent agreement reached on the nuclear question in a sensitive region of Asia and the Middle East is proof of the potential of political good will and of law, exercised with sincerity, patience and constancy." Pope Francis totally agrees with Obama and believes that all who do not believe in Global Warming are sinning and everyone who does not do something to reduce global warming is sinning. Pope Francis is an extreme socialist who believes that all capitalism is extremely evil!! The Pope also loves socialism just like Obama and believes that anyone who does not believe in socialism is sinning! For the First Time in History a Pope has declared that people of all beliefs other than Christianity such as Muslims and even atheists shall go to heaven if they are sincere and lead a good life. For the First Time in History in History a Pope refuses to judge or condemn homosexuals or those who participate in Gay Marriage!! For the First Time in History a Pope has declared that everyone who does not believe in Global Warming is Sinning and all who do not do something to reduce Global Warming is Sinning!! For the First Time in History a Pope has declared that ALL capitalism is evil and all who do not believe in socialism are Sinning!! For the first time in History the Roman Catholic Church has elected a *JESUIT POPE!! One of the main enforcers of the Roman Catholic Inquisitions were the Jesuits. All Jesuits take the same Satanic oath today. Pope Francis has taken and administered this same Satanic Jesuit oath which includes the following amazing statements:"I promise and declare that I will, when opportunity presents, make and wage war , secretly and openly, against all heretics and protestants as I am directed to do, to extirpate them from the face of the whole earth; and that I will spare neither age, sex nor condition, and that I will hang, burn, waste, boil, flay, strangle, and bury alive those infamous heretics; rip open their stomachs and wombs of their women, and crush their infants heads against the walls in order to annihilate their execrable race. And so it is interesting to note that the 112th and last pope {??} who is the leader of about 1,000,000,000 {One Billion} Roman Catholics agrees with Satan on everything!! Matthew 23:9: "Jesus says, "Do not call ANYONE on earth 'father,' for you have ONE FATHER, and He is in HEAVEN!!" This is an obvious reference to a SPIRITUAL FATHER since earthly fathers of earthly children are mentioned hundreds of times in God's Word. And so according to Jesus: calling the leader of the Satanic Roman Catholic Church 'Holy Father' is a terrible sin. Pope Francis {Who Satanists call HOLY FATHER} has made a Papal Decree stating that he alone has given power to Roman Catholic priests {Who Satanists call FATHERS} to forgive ALL ABORTIONS* which would include Gruesome and Horrific Abortions an hour before conception!! Is this MURDER?? As usual, the Satanic Pope Francis is absolutely contradicting God's Sacred Word!!: Psalm 22:10: David said, "From my mother's WOMB you have been My God!" Psalm 139:13: David said, "For you created my inmost being; You knit me together in my mother's WOMB!" Isaiah 44:2: This is what the Lord says--He who made you, who formed you in the WOMB! Isaiah 44:24: This is what the Lord says--your Redeemer, who formed you in the WOMB! Jeremiah 1:5: The Lord said, "Before I formed you in the WOMB I knew you!" And so we can safely conclude that Pope Francis completely qualifies to be the future deceptive False Prophet of 666 from the evil city on 7 hills!! Pope Francis was born at 9 PM on December 17th, 1936 in Buenos Aries Argentina which is 5 hours less than Jerusalem Bible time which would be 2 AM, December 18th, 1936. What is the interesting time period between 2 AM , December 18th, 1936 to 2 AM, OCTOBER 25TH, 2021?? The time period from December 18th, 1936 to December 18th, 2020 is exactly 84 years or 77 + 7 years. And the time period between December 18th 2020 and OCTOBER 25TH, 2021 is exactly 315 days. *7 30-day Bible months would be 210 days leaving 105 days. 14 or 7 + 7 weeks would take 98 days leaving 7 days! And so the total time period from the birth of Pope Francis at 2 AM, December 18th,1936, Jerusalem time; to 2 AM, October 25th, 2021 would be 77 + 7 years plus 7 months Plus7+7 weeks plus 7 days before the Last Day on OCTOBER 25TH, 2021 at the possible 2nd Coming of Jesus, who holds the 7 spirits of God and the 7 angels, when the 7 angel will sound the 7th and last trumpet!! BIBLE CHRONOLOGY BEGINNING WITH THE CREATION OF ADAM UNTIL NOW These chronologies are recorded in Genesis 5:2-32 and Genesis 11:10-26: Adam became the father of Seth at age .............. 130 Seth became the father of Enosh at age ...............105 Enosh became the father of Kenan at age ............. 90 Kenan became the father of Mahalel at age..............70 Mahalel became the father of Jared at age..............65 Jared became the father of Enoch at age ..............162 Enoch became the father of Methusaleh at age ......... 65 Methusaleh became the father Lamech at age.......... 187 Lamech became the father of Noah at age ..............182 Noah became the father of Shem at age ................500 Shem became the father of Arphaxed at age ............100 Arphaxad became the father of Shelah at age .......... 35 Shelah bacame the father of Eber at age ...............30 Eber became the father of Peleg at age ................34 Peleg became the father of Reu at age .................30 Reu became the father of Serug at age .................32 Serug became the father of Nahor at age ...............30 Nahor became the father of Terah at age ...............29 Terah became the father of Abram{Abraham}at age...70 for a total of 1946 years after Adam was created. Abraham entered the land of Canaan at age 75 which was 2021 years after Adam was created. Exodus 12:40: Now the length of time the Israelite people lived in Egypt and Canaan{See NIV footnote}was 430 years. At the end of 430 years, TO THE VERY DAY the Lord's divisions left Egypt. So Israel left Egypt 430 years after Abraham entered Canaan which was 2021 years after Adam was created and so Israel left Egypt 2021 + 430 or 2451 years after Adam was created. CHRONOLOGY OF THE 22 KINGSSaul king of all Israel for 42 years {I Samuel 13:1} David king of all Israel for 40 years {I Kings 2:11} Solomon king of all Israel for 40 years {I Kings 11:42} Solomon started to build God's Temple 3 years and 32 days after he began to reign. After the death of King Solomon; the Kingdom of Israel was divided into Northern Israel with the Kings of Israel and southern Israel with 19 kings of Judah with headquarters in Jerusalem. The Kingdom of northern Israel was exiled by the King of Assyria during the reign of Ahaz, king of Judah. {Read 2 Kings 17:1-41} 19 KINGS OF JUDAH Rehoboam king for 17 years {I Kings 14:21} Abijah king for 5 years {I Kings 15:1,2} Asa king for 41 years {I Kings 15:9,10} Jehoshaphat king for 25 years {2 Chron 20:31} Jehoram king for 8 years {2 Chron 21:5} Ahaziah king for 1 year {2 Chron 22:2} Joash hidden in Temple for 6 years as the King of Israel Athaliah ruled for 6 years {2 Chron 22:12} Joash then became king for 40 years {2 Chron 24:19} Amaziah king for 29 years {2 Chron 25:1} Uzziah {Also called Azariah} king for 52 years {2 Chron 26:2} Jotham king for 16 years {2 Chron 27:1} Ahaz king for 16 years {2 Chron 28:1} Hezekiah king for 29 years {2 Chron 29:1} Manasseh king for 55 years { 2 Chron 33:1} Amon king for 2 years {2 Chron 33:21} Josiah king for 31 years {2 Chron 34:1} Jehoahaz king for 3 months {2 Chron 36:2} Jehoiakim king for 11 years {2 Chron 36:5} Jehoiachin king for 3 months {2 Chron 36:9} Zedekiah king for 11 years {2 Chron 36:11} For a total of 490 years + 6 months + 10 days {Or 190 days}for the 22 kings above before the 70-year exile of Israel to Babylon. {See 2 Chronicles 36:20,21. I Kings 6:1 In the 480th year after the Israelites had come out of Egypt, in the 4th year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the month of Ziv, the second month, he began to build the Temple of the Lord. 2 Chronicles 3:2: He {Solomon} began building on the second day of the second month in the 4th year of his reign. And so Solomon began building the Temple after 3 years and 32 days of the 4th year of his reign and 479 years and 32 days of the 480th year after the Israelites left Egypt which was 2451 years after the birth of Adam for a total of 2930 years + 32 days after the birth of Adam. Saul had reigned 42 years and David ruled for 40 years and Solomon reigned 3 years and 32 days for a total of 85 years and 32 days from the first day of Saul's reign until the Temple was started. And since the 22 Judean kings ruled 490 years + 190 days before their 70 year exile to Babylon then there would have been 405 years + 158 days from when Solomon started the Temple until the 70-year exile. 490 years plus 190 days minus 85 years + 32 days equals exactly 405 years plus 158 days. 250 years earlier the Lord made this amazing prophecy in Isaiah 45:13: The Lord said, "I will raise up Cyrus in My righteousness. He will rebuild My city and set my exiles free!!" {Read 2 Chronicles 36:22,23} Daniel 9:24,25: 70 7's {or 490 years} are decreed for your people and your Holy City... Know and understand this: From the issuing of the decree {By King Cyrus} to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One, the Ruler, comes, there will be 7 7's and 62 7's {69 7's or 483 years}!! And so this amazing prophecy confirms that the coming and Anointing of the Anointed Savior would take pace exactly 69 7's or 483 years after the decree of Cyrus which took place on October 5th, AD 29 which was 3 1/2 years or 1278 days before Jesus put an end to all sacrifices for sin in the middle of the last 7 years {See Dan 9:27a} on April 3-5, AD 33. And so the time period from Solomon starting the Temple to the Anointing of Jesus would have been 405 years + 158 days + 70 years + 483 years for a total of 958 years and 158 days. And the time period from the birth of Adam to Solomon starting the Temple would have been 2930 years + 32 days plus 958 years + 158 days for a grand total of 3,888 years plus 190 days. Let us suppose that the 1260-day Great Tribulation will begin on the 70-YEAR Anniversary of Israel on MAY 14TH, 2018 and end 1260 days later at the 2nd Coming of Jesus on OCTOBER 25TH, 2021 The time period from the Anointing of Jesus or the 1st Coming of Jesus on October 5th, AD 29 to the speculative 2nd Coming of Jesus on October 25th, 2021 would be exactly 1992 years plus 20 days. And then the time period from the birth of Adam to the 2nd Coming of Jesus would be 1,992 years + 20 days plus 3,888 years + 190 days for a grand total of 5,880 years plus 210 days. 7 times 840 years is 5,880 years and so 7 times 770 + 70 years is also 5,880 years. And 210 days is also 70+70+70 days. And so the time period from the birth of Adam to the possible 2nd Coming of Jesus would be exactly 7 times 770+70 years plus 70+70+70 days!! The idea that something may happen related to the End-Times on the 70 YEAR ANNIVERSARY of the birth of Israel is, of course, just an interesting SPECULATION**! Post Reply
View Profile History	OUR SINS ARE FORGIVEN BY THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST Posted : 29 Mar, 2017 11:29 AM Hello Am enclosing extremely interesting Bible study concerning: WHAT PROPHECIES CONCERNING THE JEWS, ISRAEL AND JERUSALEM HAVE BEEN FULFILLED, ARE BEING FULFILLED OR WILL BE FULFILLED?? Feed back appreciated! Your eternal friend in Jesus, Richard WHAT PROPHECIES CONCERNING THE JEWS, ISRAEL AND JERUSALEM HAVE BEEN FULFILLED, ARE BEING FULFILLED OR WILL BE FULFILLED?? WHEN WAS THE KINGDOM RESTORED TO ISRAEL?? It is interesting to note that the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple in the Olivet prophecies is only discussed by Jesus in Luke 21:20-24. All the other prophecies are related to the Great Tribulation, the Second Coming of Jesus and the Judgment in Matthew 25. Luke 21:5-7,20,23,24: Some of the disciples were remarking about how the Temple was adorned with beautiful stones and with gifts dedicated to God. But Jesus said, "As for what you see here, the time will come when not one stone will be left on another, every one will be thrown down." "Teacher," they asked, "When will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are about to take place?".... Jesus answered, "When you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, you will know that its desolation is near... There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people. They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled." {Here Jesus confirms that there will come a time when the Jews will again rule Jerusalem when the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled} Matthew 21:42: Jesus said to the Jews, "the Kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people who will produce its fruit!" Daniel 9:25-27: From the issuing of the decree {By King Cyrus on October 5th, 455 BC} to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One, the Ruler comes there will be 7 7's {49 years} and 62 7's [434 years} {For a total of 483 years on October 5th, AD 29} Jerusalem will be rebuilt but in times of trouble {49 years after Cyrus's decree or 406 BC} After the 62 7's (3 1/2 years After His coming on April 3-5, AD 33}, the Anointed One will be cut off. The {Roman} people of the ruler who will come will destroy Jerusalem and the Sanctuary {in AD 70}. He {The Anointed One} will confirm a Covenant with many for one 7. In the middle of the 7 {3 1/2 years after His Anointing} He will put an end to SACRIFICE and offering {For sin} He will set up an Abomination that causes desolation {666}.{For 42 months} until the decreed end is poured out on him {See Rev 19:20 and 2 Thess 2:8} {The Anointed One gave us a New Covenant for 3 1/2 years after His first Coming and then prophesied of a 42 month Great Tribulation immediately before His 2nd Coming in the Olivet prophesies and in the Revelation of Jesus Christ} {The last 3 1/2 years or 1278 days was shortened to 1260 days or 42 {30-day} months as per Matthew 24:21,22} Daniel 9:24: 70 7's {490 years} are decreed to to ANOINT THE MOST HOLY {After 69 7's or 483 years}, to ATONE FOR WICKEDNESS {After 69 1/2 7's or 486 1/2 years} and to bring in EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS {After 70 7's on the Last Day at the Second Coming of Jesus}! Acts 1:6,7: The disciples asked Jesus, "Lord, are you at this time going to RESTORE THE KINGDOM TO ISRAEL?" Jesus answered, It is not for you to know the times and dates the Father has set by His own authority!" {The KINGDOM WAS RESTORED TO ISRAEL at midnight on May 14th, 1948!} *WHEN WILL ISRAEL {THE FIG TREE} AGAIN BEAR FRUIT?? THEY WILL SAY, "THE LORD IS OUR GOD!" Zechariah 13:8,9: In the whole land," declares the Lord, "Two thirds will be struck down and perish, yet one-third will be left in it. This third I will bring into the fire, I will refine them like silver and test them like gold. They will call on My name and I will answer them. I will say, "They are My people", and they will say, "The Lord is our God!" Romans 11 :25,26: I do no want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers , so that you will not be conceited. Israel {THE FIG TREE} has experienced a hardening in part UNTIL THE FULL NUMBER OF GENTILES COME IN.. And so all Israel will be saved!! {The one third who are left during the Great Tribulation} WHEN WILL THE FULL NUMBER OF GENTILES COME IN?? This will take place during the 1260-day Great Tribulation as per Revelation 7:9,13-15: There before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from EVERY NATION, TRIBE, PEOPLE AND LANGUAGE, standing before the throne in front of the LAMB. They were wearing white robes. ... Then one of the elders asked me, "These in white robes--who are they, and where did they come from?" I answered, "Sir, you know." And he said, "These are they who have COME OUT OF THE GREAT TRIBULATION, they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the LAMB. Therefore, they are before the throne of God." And just before this event when the full number of Gentiles are saved; 144,000 JEWS WILL BE SAVED. 12,000 EACH FROM THE 12 TRIBES OF ISRAEL.as per Revelation 7:5-8. These 144,000 Jews with the help of 2 Jewish witnesses {Moses and Elijah} will help in converting these 2,220,000 Jews. Jeremiah 8:13: "I will take away their {Israel's} harvest", declares the Lord, "There will be no more FIGS* on the tree. and their LEAVES will wither. What I have given them will be taken from them." Matthew 21:18,19: Jesus was hungry. Seeing a FIG TREE by the road, He went up to it but found nothing on it except leaves. Then He said, " May you never bear fruit again." Joel 1:11,12: The harvest of the field is destroyed. The vine is dried up and the FIG TREE is withered. Hosea 9:10: The Lord said, "When I found Israel..it was like seeing the early fruit on the FIG TREE!" Revelation 6:13 And the stars of the sky {See Matthew 24:29-31} fell to earth as late FIGS drop from a FIG TREEwhen shaken by a strong wind! JESUS SAYS, "THIS GENERATION WILL CERTAINLY NOT PASS AWAY UNTIL ALL THESE THINGS HAVE HAPPENED Matthew 24:32-34: Jesus says, "Now learn this lesson from the FIG TREE{ISRAEL}. As soon as its twigs get tender and its LEAVES COME OUT {Starting at May 14th,1948}, you know that summer {The Great Tribulation} is near {When the FIG TREE ISRAEL WILL BEAR FRUIT!}. Even so, when you see these things, you know that it is near, right at the door. I tell you the truth, THIS GENERATION will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened!" {This FUTURE GENERATION would include all of the Olivet prophecies concerning the Great Tribulation and the 2nd Coming of Jesus} Psalm 90:10: Lord, you have been our dwelling place throughout ALL GENERATIONS...The length of our days is 70 YEARS--or EIGHTY, if we have the strength! THE GENERATION OF THE NEW BIRTH OF ISRAEL BEGAN ON MAY 14TH, 1948 AND THE 70TH GENERATION ANNIVERSARY WILL BE ON MAY 14TH, 2018!! ISAIAH 11:12: HE WILL RAISE A BANNER FOR THE NATIONS AND GATHER THE EXILES OF ISRAEL. HE WILL ASSEMBLE THE SCATTERED PEOPLE OF JUDAH FROM THE FOUR QUARTERS OF THE EARTH There are many prophecies concerning the Jews in the end times, many of which began to be fulfilled in the 20th Century. One of which is their WORLDWIDE GATHERING {Isaiah 11:12}. In 1900 there were only 40,000 Jews in Palestine. By the end of World War II that number had risen to 800,000. As of May, 2016, there were 6,450,000 Jews in Israel who have come from all over the world or the FOUR QUARTERS OF THE EARTH!. According to www.Jewishvirtuallibrary.org there is a population growth rate of 1.7 % a year of Jews in Israel which would be 3.4% in 2 years. If you multiply 3.4 % times 6,450,000 you would have about 216,000 more Jews in Israel by May of 2018. 6,450,000 plus 216,000 equals 6,660,000* Jews in Israel by MAY 14 2018! One third of the Jews in the land will be saved during the Great Tribulation And so about 2,220,000 Jews will be saved. It is estimated that only about 4,000 Jews in Israel are saved at the present time. The prophecies concerning the Jews before the 1260- Day Great Tribulation are the LEAVES of the FIG TREE which is Israel, But the FIG TREE will not bear FRUIT until one third of the Jews are saved during the Great are saved during the Great Tribulation! ANOTHER INTERESTING PROPHECY is the Jewish re-occupation of all of JERUSALEM which occurred at 10 AM, June 7, 1967 during the miraculous Six Day War. Midnight,MAY 14TH, 2018 is 49 {7X7} YEARS plus 707 DAYS after 10 AM June 7th, 1967!! Zechariah 8:4,5,7: This is what the Lord almighty says, "Once again men and women of ripe old age will sit in the streets of JERUSALEM, each with cane in hand because of his age. The city streets will be filled with boys and girls playing there!... I will save My people from the countries of the east and the west. I will bring them back to live in JERUSALEM!" ANOTHER INTERESTING PROPECY is the one whose fulfillment we are witnessing today � the re-focusing of world politics upon the nation of Israel. All the nations of the world are coming against Israel over the issue of the control of the nation�s capital � the city of JERUSALEM{Zechariah 12:1-3}. The Vatican wants the city put under its control. The United Nations wants it to be internationalized. The European Union is demanding it be divided between the Arabs and the Jews. The Arabs want all of it. Donald Trump promises that he will make JERUSALEM the capital of Israel and all the Muslim nations are threatening war if this takes place, and this war could escalate into a WORLD WAR AND WORLD CHAOS!! Zechariah 12:1-3 The Lord declares, "I AM GOING TO MAKE JERUSALEM** A CUP THAT SENDS ALL THE SURROUDING NATIONS REELING. Judah will be besieged as well as Jerusalem, on that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her!!" Donald Trump has promised that the Jews could have their CAPITAL* in JERUSALEM and all the Muslim countries have promised that they would go to WAR* with Israel if this takes place and this war could escalate into a WORLD WAR AND WORLD CHAOS!! ANOTHER INTERESTING PROPHECY is found in Jeremiah 29:18: This is what the Lord Almighty says {About Jews} "I WILL MAKE THEM ABHORRENT TO ALL THE KINGDOMS OF THE EARTH AND AN OBJECT OF CURSING AND TERROR, OF SCORN AND REPROACH AMONG THE NATIONS!" On December 23, 2016, the UNITED NATIONS of the world severely condemned Israel for its settlements! December 23rd, 2016 is exactly 507 days before the 70TH YEAR Anniversary of the rebirth of Israel on MAY 14TH, 2018. 72 weeks or 72X7 would take up 504 days leaving 3 days or 72 hours. And so the time period from December 23rd, 2016 to MAY 14TH, 2018 and the possible coming of 666 would be exactly 66+6 weeks plus 66+6 hours. On December 23rd, 2016 Barak Hussein Obama abandoned America's commitment to Israel's security and the end of their democracy against Muslim aggression. In an act of cowardly venom Obama had the United States abstain from a United Nations resolution--and thereby effectively enact a United Nations resolution that completely condemns Israel and their settlements. A resolution that undertakes to render Israel indefensible. This very ridiculous unfair resolution greatly increases the tension and chaos in the Middle East and gives the Muslim countries an excuse to increase their hostility toward Israel. On January 24th, 2017 Israel announced that it was going to build 2,500 New Settlements on Palestinian territory which absolutely contradicts the UN resolution and would further escalate the tensions in the Middle East; and gives the Muslim countries yet another excuse to increase their hostility toward Israel. According to the United Nations human rights body, Israel is the worst human rights violater in the world today. That is the result of the latest session of the Human Rights Council which wrapped up in Geneva on March 24th, 2017 by adopting 5 times more resolutions condemning Israel than any other country on earth!! In its history the Council has condemned Israel more than any other of the 192 UN states. Comparative totals after the UN sessions program tell the story: :Israel--78 resolutions and decisions Syria--29 North Korea--9 ISIS--8 and Iran--6. As for Russia and China there is nothing at all. Think of it this way: 500,000 dead in Syria, forced starvation and mass torture in North Korea. Systematic, lethal oppression, amazing atrocities, and sponsored terrorism in Iran and ISIS, and an elementary lack of basic freedoms and oppression affecting over a billion people in Russia and China. But according to the UN Human Rights Council, the little democracy Israel is by far the main evil problem in the world??? GOD INSPIRED 32 JEWS TO WRITE EVERY WORD IN THE OT WORD OF GOD AND GOD INSPIRED 8 JEWS TO WRITE EVERY WORD IN THE NT WORD OF GOD!! OUR ETERNAL HOME IS CALLED THE NEW JERUSALEM AND ON ITS 12 GATES WILL BE THE NAMES OF THE 12 TRIBES OF ISRAEL AND ON ITS 12 FOUNDATIONS WILL BE THE NAMES OF THE 12 JEWISH APOSTLES {PAUL instead of Judas} {See Revelation 21:2 and Revelation 21:12 and Revelation 21:14} Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior is called the SON OF DAVID 17 times in the NT and in Revelation Jesus is called THE ROOT AND OFFSPRING OF DAVID and THE LION OF THE TRIBE OF JUDAH {See Revelation 22::16 and Revelation 5:5!} In John 4:22 Jesus declares "SALVATION IS FROM THE JEWS" Jesus promised to 12 Apostles who followed Him {Including Paul?} that they would be given 12 THRONES and the authority to JUDGE in Matthew 19:28 & Luke 22:30. In Revelation 4:4 Before the beginning of the Great Tribulation John saw exactly 24 thrones surrounding God's Throne in Heaven. Revelation 4:4: Surrounding God's Throne were 24 OTHER THRONES, and seated on them were 24 ELDERS. They were dressed in white and had crowns of gold on their heads!! Matthew 19:28: Jesus said to His Apostles, "I tell you the truth, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on His glorious Throne, you who have followed Me {Paul instead of Judas} will also sit on 12 THRONES!" Luke 22:30: Jesus said to His Apostles, "I confer on you a Kingdom, just as My Father conferred one on Me, so that you may eat and drink at My table in My Kingdom and sit on THRONES!" The other 12 THRONES** were most likely given to 12 prominent OT super saints such as Abraham, David, Moses, Elijah, Daniel, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Joseph, Samuel, Joshua, Enoch and Noah! WHO WILL BE GOD'S TWO WITNESSES {REV 11:3} OR MEN {REV 11:6} OR PROPHETS {REV 11:10}?? Zechariah 4:11,14: "Then I asked the angel, 'What are these TWO OLIVE TREES {See Rev 11:4 below} on the right and left of the lamp stand?'... the angel said, 'These are the TWO who are anointed to serve the Lord of the earth!'" Rev 11:3-6: {God said to John} "I will give power to My TWO witnesses and they will prophesy for 1260 days clothed in sackcloth! These are the TWO OLIVE TREES {See Zech 4:11,14 above} and the 2 lamp stands that stand before the Lord of the earth. If anyone tries to harm them, fire will come from their mouths to destroy their enemies. This is how anyone who tries to harm them must die {See 2 Kings 1:9-12; Num 16:31-35}. These MEN* will have power to shut up the sky so that it will not rain during the time they are prophesying {See 1 Kings 17:1; Luke 4:25; James 5:17}; and they will have power to turn the waters into blood {See Exodus 7:15-23} and to strike the earth with every kind of plague as often as they wish." Moses and Elijah witnessed to 3 Apostles on the mount of Transfiguration when Moses & Elijah spoke to Jesus about his departure or Ascension, which Jesus was to bring to fulfillment in Jerusalem 40 days after His resurrection. Luke 9:30,31: �TWO MEN Moses and Elijah, appeared in GLORIOUS SPLENDOR talking with Jesus. They spoke about His Departure {Or Ascension} which He was about to bring to fulfillment in Jerusalem." Moses and Elijah were most assuredly the TWO MEN dressed in white who witnessed at the Departure or Ascension of Jesus in Acts 1:10,11: "They looked up into the sky as He {Jesus} was going when suddenly TWO MEN dressed in WHITE stood beside them. "Men of Galilee," they said, "why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into Heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen Him go into Heaven!" And then in Luke 24:2b-6b we read: They did not find the body of Jesus. While they were wondering about this, suddenly TWO MEN... stood beside them... And the MEN said to them, "Why do you look for the living among the dead? HE IS NOT HERE; HE HAS RISEN!!" Jesus says in John 8:17b: "The testimony of TWO MEN IS VALID and of course the testimony of Moses and Elijah is just about as valid as you can get. And so the coming of God's TWO MEN or witnesses to prophesy for 1260 days {See Rev 11:3-7} will be their FOURTH appearance as God's 2 witnesses or MEN. And the reason that their names are not mentioned in Luke 24:3 and Acts 1:10 and Rev 11:3-12 is that the Father, Moses and Elijah want us to glorify NO ONE ELSE BUT JESUS!! Moses and Elijah will most likely witness miraculously to people in the uttermost parts of the earth in all 6,000 languages. Presently the Bible has been translated into about 2,000 languages from the inspired Greek and Hebrew manuscripts and faith comes from hearing or reading the sword of the spirit which is the Word of God. The Bible still has not been translated into about 4,000 languages and Rev 5:9b and Rev 7:9,13,14 must be completely fulfilled. Surely the courageous tribulation saints will help Moses and Elijah spread God's Word. They will do a fantastic job since according to Rev 7:9,14 there will be a great multitude from EVERY TRIBE AND LANGUAGE who will be �washed in the Blood of the Lamb�. Moses & Elijah will be dressed in SACKCLOTH which is appropriate since the Tribulation saints will be very poor, for they will not be able to buy or sell anything as per Rev 13:17. Moses and Elijah will certainly speak the Word of God with great power and love. They will not add or take words away from the Prophetic Words of God {See Rev 22:18,19}; and they will encourage God's courageous saints to adhere to ALL of the NT commandments {See Rev 12:13b; 14:12b; Matt 28:20a; John 14:15,21,23; I John 2:2-5} with love {See Matt 5:39-48 & Rom 12:17-21} in the face of severe and hostile persecution. Moses and Elijah will warn us of the coming of 666 & his False Prophet. It seems very appropriate that God will send His TWO PROPHETS {See Rev 11:10b} to warn and prepare His saints for the coming of Satan, 666 and the Great Tribulation for in Amos 3:7 we read: "Surely the Sovereign Lord does nothing without revealing His plan to His servants the PROPHETS!" God will allow 666 to martyr Moses and Elijah {See Rev 11:7,8} right where their Lord was crucified. {At the new HOLY PLACE where Jesus shed his blood for our sins} 3 1/2 days later Moses and Elijah will rise to heaven just hours before the 7th angel sounds the 7th Trump at the 2nd coming of Jesus.{See Rev 11:11-18} Mark 13:14: Jesus says, �When you see 666 standing where he does not belong {At the New Holy Place}....then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.� {See Rev 11:7,8 & Rev 16:15} John 2:19: Jesus said, �Destroy this TEMPLE and I will raise it again in 3 days.� This HOLY PLACE is where Jesus became the chief cornerstone {Eph 2:20,21} and we are living stones {I Pet 2:5 & 2 Cor 6:16} in the LAST TEMPLE made without hands! {Acts 17:24} Certainly, the old Jerusalem and the old Temple site or a future Jewish temple are NO LONGER HOLY PLACES. Hebrews 13:12-14: "Jesus suffered outside the city gate to make the people HOLY THROUGH HIS BLOOD. Let us, then, go to Him outside the city, bearing the disgrace He bore. For here we do not have an enduring city, but we are looking for the CITY {THE NEW JERUSALEM} that is to come." {See Heb 11:10,13-16; Heb 12:22; Rev 3:12b; 21:2,10-27; 22:1-5; 2 Pet 3:13} Gal 4:25,26: "Now Hagar stands for Mount Sinai in Arabia and corresponds to the present city of Jerusalem {Called Sodom in Rev 11:8} because she is in slavery with her children. But the JERUSALEM that is ABOVE is free, and she is our mother." {The NEW JERUSALEM} : Post Reply
View Profile History	OUR SINS ARE FORGIVEN BY THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST Posted : 1 Apr, 2017 06:53 PM Am enclosing very interesting Bible studies on the inspired and amazing time periods in Bible Prophecy such as: INTERESTING 70 YEAR TIME PERIODS IN BIBLE PROPHECY!! INTERESTING 70 YEAR TIME PERIODS IN BIBLE PROPHECY It is interesting to note that the Kings of Israel ruled 490 Years or 70 YEARS times 7 years, which was immediately followed by a 70 YEAR exile of the Jews, which was then immediately followed by the amazing 70 YEAR times 7 year Prophecy in Daniel 9:24-27; which will end with the 2nd coming of Jesus and EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS on the Last Day Of the 70TH 7!! Also in the prophecy of the 70 YEARS times 7 years it states in Daniel 7:26 "The people of the {Roman} ruler who will come will destroy the city {Jerusalem} and the Sanctuary." This prophecy was fulfilled and the Jews exiled again in AD 70 until the rebirth of Israel at midnight, May 14th, 1948!! The 70 YEAR Anniversary of the rebirth of Israel will take place at midnight on MAY 14TH, 2018?? Daniel 9:24-27: Seventy "sevens" {70 YEARS times 7 or 490 years} are decreed for your people and your holy city to ANOINT THE MOST HOLY {After 483 Years}, to ATONE FOR WICKEDNESS {After 486 1/2 years} and to bring in EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS {On the Last Day of the Last 1260-day Tribulation or 490 total years}...From the issuing of the decree {By King Cyrus--See Isaiah 44:28} until the Anointed One comes {On October 5th AD 29}, there will be 62 7's and 7 7's {Or 69 7's or 483 years}... Then {3 1/2 years or 1278 days later} the Anointed One will be cut off...He will confirm a Covenant with many for one 7 {Or the Last 7 years}. In the middle of the 'seven' {After 3 1/2 years} He {The Anointed One} will put an END TO SACRIFICES and offering.{On April 3-5 AD 33} {And then after a long pause} He will set up an abomination that causes desolation {666} for 42 months, until the decreed end is poured out on him at the 2nd Coming of Jesus {As per Rev 19:19,20 and 2 Thess 2:8} Which will bring in EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS on the Last Day of the 70 YEARS times 7 Prophecy! Luke 3:21,22: When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as He was praying, heaven was opened, and the Holy Spirit descended on Him {ANOINTING} in bodily form like a dove. And a Voice came from heaven, "You are My Son, whom I love, with You I am well pleased!" Matthew 18::21,22: Peter asked Jesus, "How many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me?" Jesus answered, "I tell you, not 7 times, but 70 times 7 times!" {See NIV footnote} The letters in C-H-R-I-S-T adds up to 77 or 70 + 7 C=3 H=8 R=18 I=9 S=19 T=20 and 3+8+16+9+19+20 = 77 ot 70 + 7!! According to the genealogy of CHRIST {70 + 7} in Luke 3: 23-37 CHRIST {70+ 7} is the 76th Son of Adam and the 77TH or 70 + 7TH Son of God. Jesus is called the Son of David 17 times and David lived exactly 70 YEARS as per 2 Samuel 5:4. Isaiah 23:15: 70 YEARS, the span of a king's life. Psalm 90:10: Lord, you have been our dwelling place throughout ALL GENERATIONS...The length of our days is 70 YEARS--or EIGHTY, if we have the strength! THE GENERATION OF THE NEW BIRTH OF ISRAEL BEGAN ON MAY 14TH, 1948 AND THE 70TH GENERATION ANNIVERSARY WILL BE ON MAY 14TH, 2018!! The prophecies concerning the Jews before the 1260- Day Great Tribulation are the LEAVES of the FIG TREE which is Israel, But the FIG TREE will not bear FRUIT until one third of the Jews are saved See {Zechariah 13:8,9 & Romans 11:25,26} during the Great are saved during the Great Tribulation which may begin on the 70TH ANNIVERSARY of the rebirth of Israel! Jeremiah 29:10-13: This is what the Lord says, "When 70 YEARS are completed I will come to you and fulfill My precious promise. For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord; plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray too Me, and I will listen to you. You will seek Me, and find me when you seek Me with all your hear. I will be found by you," declares the Lord!" Acts 1:6,7: The disciples asked Jesus, "Lord, are you at this time going to RESTORE THE KINGDOM TO ISRAEL?" Jesus said , "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by His own authority." Luke 21:5,6,23,24: Some of His disciples were remarking about how the Temple was adorned with beautiful stones and with gifts dedicated to God. But Jesus said, "As for what you see here, the time will come {In AD 70} when not one stone will be left on another, every one of them will be thrown down!... There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations {In AD 70}. Jerusalem will be trampled on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are FULFILLED!" This prophecy was FULFILLED and The KINGDOM WAS RESTORED TO ISRAEL at midnight on May 14th, AD 1948. It is interesting to note that 70 YEARS after midnight, May 14th, 1948 will be at midnight, MAY 14TH, 2018!!??? ANOTHER INTERESTING PROPHECY is the Jewish re-occupation of all of JERUSALEM which occurred at 10 AM, June 7, 1967 during the miraculous Six Day War. Midnight,MAY 14TH, 2018 is 49{7X7} YEARS plus 707 DAYS after 10 AM June 7th, 1967!! INTERESTING SPECULATIVE QUESTION?? Will something interesting happen related to the 70 YEARS times 7 Prophecy; take place exactly 70 YEARS after the rebirth of Israel at midnight on MAY 14TH, 2018?? Such as the beginning of the Last half of the 70 YEARS times 7.{The 1260-day Great Tribulation} or the coming of God's two Israeli witnesses {Moses and Elijah} for their 1260-day testimony; or the signs that will take place shortly before the Great Tribulation??? This, of course, is just a very interesting SPECULATION! Immediately after the Resurrection Day of the saints mentioned in I Thessalonians 4:16,17 we read in I Thessalonians 5:4,5: But YOU, BROTHERS, are not in darkness so that THIS DAY should surprise you like a thief. You are all sons of the light and sons of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness!! Revelation 3:3: Jesus says, "Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; obey it, and repent. But *IF* you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you!!" When the 1260-day Great Tribulation begins or the 1260-day testimony of Moses and Elijah begins 1263 1/2 days before the Last Day; the saints will then know the exact Last Day when Jesus will come with EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS which will begin on the Last Day of the 70 YEARS times 7 !! Question? Why did Jesus reduce the Great Tribulation or last half of the Last 7 years in Daniel 9:27 from 3 1/2 years or 1278 days to 1260-days or 42 30-day months? Matthew 24:21-22: Jesus says, "For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now {See Daniel 12:1,2}--and never to be equaled again. If those {1278} days had not been CUT SHORT, no one would survive, bur for the sake of the elect those {1278 } days will be SHORTENED" {to 1260 days} And so the 1278-day Great Tribulation and reign of 666 will be shortened by 18 or 6+6+6 days. By comparing Revelation 12:6 with Revelation 12:14 we know that 1260 days and time {360 days} times {720 days} and 1/2 a time {180 days} is the exact same period of time. And by comparing Revelation 13:5 with Daniel 7:25 we know that 42 30-day months and time {12 months} times {24 months} and 1/2 a time {6 months} is the exact same period of time! And therefore 1260 days and 42 30-day months is the exact same period of time! COULD DONALD TRUMP BE PRESIDENT WHEN THE GREAT TRIBULATION BEGINS?? As you know 70 7's and 666 are very prominent numbers in Bible prophecy. Someone just pointed out to me that Donald Trump was born on June 14th, 1946 at 10:54 AM which I checked out. Donald Trump will became the most powerful world leader when he was inaugurated at Noon on January 20th, 2017. And so Donald Trump was exactly 70 YEARS plus 7 MONTHS plus 6 days plus 66 minutes old when he becomes the most powerful leader in the world! Donald Trump became the most powerful leader in the world at noon, on January 20th, 2017; and the 70TH YEAR anniversary of the rebirth of Israel will be at midnight, MAY 14TH, 2018. Noon, January 20th, 2017 until Noon, May 14th, 2018 is exactly 479 days and noon, May 14th, 2018 until midnight, MAY 14TH, 2018 would take place on the 480th day. 66 weeks or 66X7 equals 462 days; which leaves another 18 or 6+6+6 days!!! And so Donald Trump became the most powerful leader in the world exactly 66 weeks plus 6+6+6 days before the speculative coming off 666 who will then become the most powerful leader in the world. On December 23rd, 2016 Barak Hussein Obama abandoned America's commitment to Israel's security and the end of their democracy against Muslim aggression. In an act of cowardly venom Obama had the United States abstain from a United Nations resolution--and thereby effectively enact a United Nations resolution that completely condemns Israel and their settlements. A resolution that undertakes to render Israel indefensible. This very ridiculous unfair resolution greatly increases the tension and chaos in the Middle East and gives the Muslim countries an excuse to increase their hostility toward Israel. On December 23, 2016, the UNITED NATIONS of the world severely condemned Israel! December 23rd, 2016 is exactly 507 days before the 70TH YEAR Anniversary of the rebirth of Israel on MAY 14TH, 2018. 72 weeks or 72X7 would take up 504 days leaving 3 days or 72 hours. And so the time period from December 23rd, 2016 to MAY 14TH, 2018 and the possible coming of 666 would be exactly 66+6 weeks plus 66+6 hours. As we have shown Pope Francis completely qualifies to be the future deceptive False Prophet of 666 from the evil city on 7 hills!! If for example the 1260-day Great Tribulation begins on the 70TH YEAR anniversary of the rebirth of Israel on MAY 14TH, 2018; it would then end 1260 days later at the 2nd Coming of Jesus on OCTOBER 25TH, 2021. Pope Francis was born at 9 PM on December 17th, 1936 in Buenos Aries Argentina which is 5 hours less than Jerusalem Bible time which would be 2 AM, December 18th, 1936. What is the interesting time period between 2 AM , December 18th, 1936 to 2 AM, OCTOBER 25TH, 2021?? The time period from December 18th, 1936 to December 18th, 2020 is exactly 84 years or 77 + 7 years or *70 + 7 + 7* years. And the time period between December 18th 2020 and OCTOBER 25TH, 2021 is exactly 315 days. 7 30-day Bible months would be 210 days leaving 105 days. 14 weeks or 7 + 7 weeks would take 98 days leaving 7 days! And so the total time period from the birth of Pope Francis at 2 AM, December 18th,1936, Jerusalem time; to 2 AM, October 25th, 2021 would be *70 + 7 + 7* years plus 7 months Plus 7 + 7 weeks plus 7 days before the Last Day on OCTOBER 25TH, 2021 at the possible 2nd Coming of Jesus, who holds the 7 spirits of God and the 7 angels {Read Rev 1:20 & 3:1 & 5:6b}, when the 7 angel will sound the 7th and last trumpet!!{Read Rev 11:15-18 & I Cor 15:51,52} As we have shown the time period from Solomon starting the Temple to the Anointing of Jesus would have been 405 years + 158 days + 70 years + 483 years for a total of 958 years and 158 days. And the time period from the birth of Adam to Solomon starting the Temple would have been 2930 years + 32 days plus 958 years + 158 days for a grand total of 3,888 years plus 190 days Let us suppose that the 1260-day Great Tribulation will begin on the 70-YEAR Anniversary of Israel on MAY 14TH, 2018 and end 1260 days later at the 2nd Coming of Jesus on OCTOBER 25TH, 2021. The time period from the Anointing of Jesus or the 1st Coming of Jesus on October 5th, AD 29 to the speculative 2nd Coming of Jesus on OCTOBER 25TH, 2021 would be exactly 1992 years plus 20 days. And so the time period from the birth of Adam to the 2nd Coming of Jesus would be 1,992 years + 20 days plus 3,888 years + 190 days for a grand total of 5,880 years plus 210 days*. 7* times 840 years is 5,880 years and so 7 times 770 + 70 years is also 5,880 years. And 210 days is also *70 + 70* + 70 days. And so the time period from the birth of Adam to the possible 2nd Coming of Jesus would be exactly 7 times 770 + 70 years plus 70 + 70 + 70 days!! The idea that something may happen related to the End-Times on the 70 YEAR ANNIVERSARY of the birth of Israel on MAY 14TH, 2018 is, of course, just an interesting SPECULATION! Numbers 28:16: �On the 14th day of the 1st month the Lord�s Passover is to be held.� Exodus 12:6,7,12,13: �Take care of them {The Passover Lambs} until the 14th day of the month when all the people of Israel must slaughter them {See Lev 23:5} at Twilight {Just after sundown to nightfall}. Then they are to take some of the blood and put it on the doorframes of their houses. On that same night I will strike down the firstborn of the Egyptians� but when I see the blood I will PASS OVER you.� Deut 16:1: �Observe the month of ABIB and celebrate the PASS OVER of the Lord your God, because in the month of ABIB He brought you out of Egypt by night.� Lev 23:6: �On the 15th day of that month the Lord's 7-day Feast of Unleavened Bread begins.� Luke 22:7,8: Then came the day on which the Passover Lamb �Had� to be sacrificed. Jesus said, �Go and make preparations for us to eat the Passover.� Christ became our Passover Lamb on Passover Day! 1 Cor 5:7: �For Christ our PASSOVER LAMB has been sacrificed.� Whereas the Jews {who were following the evil Babylonian moon calendar} held their Passover on the 15th of Nisan {Which always occurs on the night of a full moon} and observed the Passover on the WRONG DAY as per John 18:28: �Then the Jews led Jesus from Caiaphas to the palace of the Roman Governor {Pilate}. By now it was early morning, and to avoid ceremonial uncleanness the Jews did not enter the palace; for they wanted to be able to eat the PASSOVER!!� Which would have been the day �AFTER� Jesus correctly held the Passover on the 14th of ABIB which God had commanded. So we can assume that the month of ABIB is different from the Babylonian moon month of Nisan and therefore has nothing to do with the moon. When does the first month of the Bible Year called ABIB begin?? Many Bible scholars believe that it may begin of the first day of SPRING or sundown March 20th to sundown March 21st. ABIB is the Hebrew word for SPRING. And so the 14th Day of ABIB can also be translated the 14th day of SPRING!! And so Jesus became our Passover Lamb on Passover day which is always the 14th day of the month of Abib and is always from sundown, April 2nd to sundown, April 3rd And the Resurrection Day of Jesus is always on the 16th of Abib which is always from sundown, April 4th to sundown April 5th each and every year. And ASCENSION DAY is always 40 days after Resurrection Day which is from sundown May 14th to sundown May 15th each and every year. And so ASCENSION DAY is 56 days Or 7 X 7 + 7 DAYS of the Bible Year. And so midnight May 14th, 1948 is 56 or 7 X 7 + 7 DAYS of the Bible Year and the 70TH Anniversary of the rebirth of Israel at midnight, May 14th, 2018 is also ASCENSION DAY which is 7 X 7 + 7 DAYS after the first day of the Bible year. 1260 days after the 70TH Anniversary of the rebirth of Israel on MAY 14TH, 2018 would be on OCTOBER 25TH, 2021 and the LAST DAY would be OCTOBER 24TH 2021 to OCTOBER 25TH, 2021. OCTOBER 24TH, is exactly 217 days after the first day of the Bible year on March 21st. And so OCTOBER 24TH, 2021 is exactly 7 30-day Bible months plus 7 days after the first day of the Bible year when the 7th angel may sound the 7th and last trumpet at the second Coming of Jesus who will open the 7 SEALS of the End-Times and who will bring the 7th DAY REST for the people of God. {Read Revelation 5:9 and Hebrews 4:9} *Jesus has {7} horns and {7} eyes which are the {7} spirits of God sent out into all the earth.{See Rev 5:6} and {7*} mighty angels who stand before the throne of God.

View Profile History	OUR SINS ARE FORGIVEN BY THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST Posted : 4 Apr, 2017 02:31 PM WHO WILL BE THE 200 MILLION MOUNTED TROOPS ON HORSES IN REVELATION 9:16-20?? Revelation 9:16-20: The number of the MOUNTED TROOPS was two hundred million {200,000,000}. I heard their number. The HORSES AND RIDERS I saw in my vision looked like this. Their breastplates were red, dark blue and yellow. The heads of the HORSES resembled the heads of lions, and out of their mouths came fire, smoke and sulfur. A third of mankind {About 2.3 Billion unsaved people} was killed by these plagues of fire, smoke and sulfur that came out of their mouths... The rest of {Unsaved} mankind that were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands! WHO WILL BE THE 2 HUNDRED MILLION MOUNTED TROOPS ON HORSES THAT WILL KILL ABOUT 2.3 BILLION UNSAVED PEOPLE?? Revelation 6:7-9: When He opened the 5th seal saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the Word of God and the testimony they had maintained. They called out in a loud voice, "how long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and AVENGE our blood?" The each of them were given a WHITE ROBE, and the were told to wait a LITTLE LONGER, until the number of their fellow servants and brothers were to be killed as they had been was COMPLETED! This promise were COMPLETED in Revelation 7:9-14 just before the Trumpet plagues in Revelation chapters 8 and 9. Revelation 7:9,13,14: There before me was a GREAT MULTITUDE THAT NO ONE COULD COUNT, from EVERY NATION, TRIBE, PEOPLE AND LANGUAGE standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb. They were wearing WHITE ROBES... Then one of the {24} Elders {See Rev 4:4}asked me, These in WHITE ROBES who are they, and where did they come from??" I answered, "Sir, you know." And he said, "These are they who have come out of the Great Tribulation {MARTYRS} they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the LAMB. Therefore, they are before the throne of God!!" Revelation 12:11: They overcame him by the blood of the LAMBand by the word of their testimony; they did love their lives so much as to shrink from death! {Just like the LAMB* Jesus} And so the 200,000,000 mounted troops on horses will be Tribulation martyrs who will avenge their blood on 2,300,000,000 unsaved in the 5th trumpet plague in Revelation 9:7-9 above; that may have had a hand in the evil murder of the 200,000,000 Great Tribulation martyrs. IS THE FIRST 1,000 YEAR RESURRECTION IN REVELATION 20:4-6 FOR MARTYRS LIKE JESUS AND THE 24 ELDERS ON THRONES WITH AUTHORITY TO JUDGE ONLY?? It is completely obvious that the continuous 1,000 year reign mentioned in Revelation 20:4-6 is for 24 ELDERS on THRONES and MARTYRS ONLY according to God's Word in: Revelation 20:4,5: "I saw [24]THRONES on which were seated those who had been given authority to JUDGE and I saw the SOULS of those who had been beheaded {Martyred} because of their testimony for Jesus {NT MARTYRS} and because of the word of God {OT MARTYRS}. They had not worshiped the beast and had not received his mark on their foreheads or their hands {TRIBULATION MARTYRS}. They came to life {AWOKE FROM SLEEP IN CHRIST} and reigned with Christ a thousand years. The rest of the dead {Saints who were not martyrs or the 24 elders} did not COME TO LIFE* until the thousand years were ended. {At the 2nd coming of Jesus} These could not be the lost since Rev 20:6,& 10 and Rev 21:8 state that on the Last Day the lost will suffer the SECOND DEATH!! WHO ARE THE 24 ELDERS ON THRONES SURROUNDING GOD'S THRONE?? Revelation 4:4 Surrounding God's throne were 24 OTHER THRONES, on seated on them were 24 ELDERS. They were dressed in WHITE and had crowns of Gold on their heads! Matthew 19:28: Jesus said to his Apostles, "I tell you the truth, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on His glorious throne, you have FOLLOWED ME {The Apostle Paul instead of Judas] will ALSO SIT ON 12 THRONES, JUDGING!! Luke 22:29,30: Jesus said to His Apostles, "I confer on you a Kingdom, just as My Father conferred one on Me, so that you may eat and drink at My table in My Kingdom and sit on THRONES, JUDGING!!" WHO DESERVES TO SIT ON THE OTHER 12 THRONES SURROUNDING GOD'S THRONE?? And certainly 12 OT Super saints of God will also deserve sitting on the other 12 THRONES surrounding God's throne such as Abraham, David, Moses, Elijah, Daniel, Isaiah, Samuel, Jeremiah, Joseph , Joshua, Noah and Enoch!! According to Revelation 20:4-6 there will be TWO Resurrections. The 1st continuous 1,000 year Heavenly Resurrection is for the 24 Elders on thrones and MARTYRS* LIKE JESUS ONLY* and will end at the 2nd coming of Jesus when the 2nd Resurrection will take place for the saints of all ages who are NOT MARTYRS!! In Daniel 12:2 just after the Great Tribulation we read, "Multitudes who SLEEP in the dust of the earth will AWAKE, some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt. I Thess 5:10: He {Jesus} died for us so that, whether we are AWAKE {Martyrs} or ASLEEP, we may live together with Him. I Corinthians 15:51,52: Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all SLEEP{Since the Martyrs are AWAKE} but we will all be changed--in a flash, in a twinkling of an eye, at the Last {7TH} Trumpet!! There are only TWO RESURRECTIONS for all saints mentioned in Rev 20:4-6: The FIRST RESURRECTION is for MARTYRS AND THE 24 ELDERS ON THRONES ONLY and INCLUDES the Tribulation Martyrs. And therefore the SECOND RESURRECTION must come on the Last Day of the Great Tribulation and must include ALL SAINTS {Both OT & NT} who are not martyrs or the 24 Elders on thrones. The Heavenly rewards for the faithful and courageous MARTYRS is one of the most important central themes in the book of Revelation. For they will reign with Jesus in Heaven during the 1,000 years before His 2nd Coming; like the TRIBULATION MARTYRS! Just before the 7 Trumpet Plagues in Revelation 8 we read : Revelation 7:9,13-15,17: I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from EVERY* nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the THRONE and in front of the LAMB. They were wearing white robes.... The one of the {24} ELDERS asked me, "These in white robes--who are they, where did they come from?" I answered, "Sir, you know." and he {The ELDER} said, " These are they who have COME OUT OF THE GREAT TRIBULATION {MARTYRS}, they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the LAMB. Therefore, THEY ARE BEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD and serve Him day and night in His Temple!!"... The LAMB in the center of the throne will be their Shepherd!! FOR EXAMPLE: Let us suppose that the SECOND RESURRECTION takes place on October 25th; 2021 then the continuous 1,000 year FIRST RESURRECTION for MARTYRS AND 24 ELDERS ONLY would take place from October 25th, AD 1021 to October 25th, 2021. The 24 Elders and all of the OT & NT saints martyred before October 25th, 1021 were awakened to reign with Jesus in Heaven and every Martyr martyred after October 25th, 1021 were and will be immediately awakened to reign with Jesus in the continuous 1,000 year FIRST RESURRECTION to be completed on October 25th, 2021 at the SECOND RESURRECTION when "The rest of the dead COME TO LIFE** when the thousand years are ENDED." {Rev 20:5a} Rev 20:4b �I saw the SOULS of those who had been martyred because of their testimony for Jesus... they came to life and reigned with Christ for 1,000 years. {The Martyrs SOULS will get white robes but will only get their New Heavenly bodies when the 1,000 years are ENDED at the 2nd Coming of Jesus.} This seems to contradict John 6:40: Jesus says, �EVERYONE who looks to the Son and believes in Him shall have eternal life and I will raise him up at the LAST DAY.� HOWEVER, the LAST DAY RESURRECTION could last 1,000 years for in 2 Pet 3:8 we read: �With the Lord a DAY is like 1,000 years, and 1,000 years are like a DAY!! We see the martyrs talking in heaven at the beginning of the Great Tribulation in Revelation 6:9-11 and then we see a great multitude of martyrs who have come out of the Great Tribulation from every nation and language awake in heaven jin Revelation 7:9-17 just BEFORE* the first 7 trumpet plagues in Revelation 8. And then just before the last 7 bowl plagues we see martyrs in heaven singing the song of the Lamb in Revelation 15:2-4: And then we see 144,000 Jewish martyrs in heaven with Jesus BEFORE Rome or Babylon is destroyed in Rev 14:8 in Revelation 14:1-5: Revelation 6:9-11: When He {Jesus} opened the 5th seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain {MARTYRS LIKE JESUS} because of the word of God and the testimony they had maintained. They called out in a loud voice, How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood? Then each of them were given a WHITE ROBE, and they were told to wait a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and brothers who were to be killed {TRIBULATION MARTYRS} as they had been was COMPLETED. This was COMPLETED just before the 7 trumpet plagues in Revelation 8:: Revelation 7:9,13-15,17: After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from EVERY nation, tribe, people and language standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb {Jesus} They were wearing WHITE ROBES. And they cried out in a loud voice, "Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne , and to the Lamb...Then one of the {24} ELDERS asked me, "Those in WHITE ROBES--who are they, and where did they come from?" And he said, "These are they who have come out of the GREAT TRIBULATION{MARTYRS LIKE JESUS}, they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the LAMB. Therefore, They are before the throne of God and serve Him day and night in His temple...The LAMB in the center of the throne will be their Shepherd!" Revelation 15:2,3: And I saw..those who had been victorious over the Beast {666} and his image and the number of his name {TRIBULATION MARTYRS}. They held harps given them by God and sang the song of Moses the servant of God and the song of the LAMB: "Great and marvelous are your deeds, Lord God Almighty. Just and true are your ways, King of the ages!" Note: Mount Zion is another name for heaven as per Hebrews 12:22. Revelation 14:1-4: Then I looked, an there before me was the LAMB, standing on Mount Zion, and with Him 144,000 {See Rev 7:3-8}...And I heard a sound from Heaven...And they sang a new song before the throne. No one could learn the song except the 144,000 who had been REDEEMED from the earth...They follow the LAMB wherever He goes. {They will all be martyredBEFORE the fall of Babylon in Revelation 14:8: A second angel followed and said, "Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great!" The 24 Elders on thrones are mentioned 12 TIMES in Revelation 5:4,10; :5,6,8,11,14; 7:11,13; 11:16-18; 14:3 and 19:4 The 24 Elders on thrones are mentioned many times speaking from heaven during the Great Tribulation and are the only saints mentioned in heaven during the Great Tribulation besides the MARTYRS!! The MARTYRS are mentioned numerous times in Revelation 2:10; :9-11; 7:9-17; 11:7; 12:11: 13:10; 13:15; 14:1-5; 14:13; 15:2-4; 16:6; 18:24!! It is completely obvious that the continuous 1,000 year reign mentioned in Revelation 20:4-6 is for 24 ELDERS on THRONES and MARTYRS ONLY according to God's Word in: Revelation 20:4,5: "I saw [24]THRONES on which were seated those who had been given authority to JUDGE and I saw the SOULS of those who had been beheaded {Martyred} because of their testimony for Jesus {NT MARTYRS} and because of the word of God {OT MARTYRS}. They had not worshiped the beast and had not received his mark on their foreheads or their hands {TRIBULATION MARTYRS}. They came to life {AWOKE FROM SLEEP IN CHRIST} and reigned with Christ a thousand years. The rest of the dead {Saints who were not martyrs or the 24 elders} did not COME TO LIFE* until the thousand years were ended. {At the 2nd coming of Jesus} These could not be the lost since Rev 20:6,& 10 and Rev 21:8 state that on the Last Day the lost will suffer the SECOND DEATH!! WHEN WAS SATAN STOPPED FROM DECEIVING THE NATIONS SO THAT THE GOSPEL COULD BE PREACHED TO EVERY NATION IN THE WORLD AS PER MATTHEW 24:14 AND REVELATION 7:9?? FOR EXAMPLE: Let us assume that the Great Tribulation will last 1260 days from May 14th, 2018 to October 25th, 2021. As you know Satan was successful in stopping the Gospel from spreading past 5% of the earth; or The Mid-East, Southern Europe and Northern Africa for almost 1000 years. Suddenly the Gospel was being preached throughout the pagan kingdoms of Russia, Finland, Denmark, Norway and Sweden around AD 1018. And in the past 1,000 years the Gospel has spread to all of Africa and Asia, North and South America, and all the remote islands of the earth. As you know the gospel must be preached to every nation of the earth before the end can come as per Matthew 24:14 and Revelation 7:9. And so about 95% of the world�s nations who were deceived by Satan; have heard the gospel for the first time during the past 1,000 years. Rev 20:2,3: �He {The angel} seized the dragon, who is the devil or Satan and bound him for 1,000 years {FOR EXAMPLE: May 14th, AD 1018 to May 14th, 2018}. He threw him into the Abyss to keep him from deceiving the nations until the 1,000 years were ended {On May 14th, 2018}. After that he must be set free for a short time.� Or 1260 days from May 14th, 2018 to October 25th, 2021 during the Great Tribulation when Satan will again DECEIVE ALL THE NATIONS for 1260 days until the Last Day. Revelation 13:4,5: Men WORSHIPED THE DRAGON {Satan as per Rev 12:9} because he had given authority to the Beast... The Beast will exercise his authority for 42 months (Not 7 years}.. And he will be given authority over EVERY tribe, people, language and NATION. All inhabitants of the earth will worship the Beast--all whose names have not been written in the Book of Life belonging to the LAMB that was slain!! And then on the Last Day of the 1260-day Tribulation, Revelation 20:10 states: And the DEVIL WHO DECEIVED THEM, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur where the Beast and the False Prophet had been thrown {See Rev 19:20} They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever! Revelation 12:11; They overcame him by the blood of the LAMB and by the word of their testimony; they {Like Jesus} did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death!! Revelation 2:10: Jesus says, "Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you the CROWN OF LIFE!!" Post Reply

View Profile History	OUR SINS ARE FORGIVEN BY THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST Posted : 5 Apr, 2017 06:50 PM WHO IS THE WOMAN IN REVELATION 12 AND WHO ARE HER OFFSPRING?? Galatians 4:22,23,28-31: Abraham had 2 sons, one by the slave woman and the other by the Free Woman. His son by the slave woman was born in the ordinary way; but his son by the free woman was born as the result of a "PROMISE"!....You brother, like Isaac {Sarah's son}, are children of "PROMISE"....The slave woman's son will never share in the inheritance with the Free Woman's son. Therefore, brothers, WE are not children of the slave woman {Hagar} but of the Free "WOMAN"{Sarah}!! According to Galatians 3:16 Jesus is also the offspring of Abraham and Sarah Revelation 12:5: She gave birth to a Son, a male child, Who will rule all the nations with an iron scepter {See Rev 19:15}. And her Child was snatched up to God and to His throne! {See Ephesians 1:20-22} Galatians 3:28,29: There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise> Just before the coming of 666 and the 1260-day or 42-month Great Tribulation in Revelation 13:1 we read in Rev 12:17; 13:1,5,7: Then the dragon {Satan} was enraged at the woman {Sarah} and went off to make war against the rREST OF HER OFFSPRING--THOSE WHO OBEY GOD'S COMMANDMENTS AND HOLD TO THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS!! And the dragon {Satan} stood on the shore of the sea. And I saw Beast {666} coming out of the Sea {Or Abyss or Hell as per Rev 11:7 & 17:8 & Luke 8:31}.....The Beast will exercise his authority for 42 months..... He will be given power to make war against the saints and to conquer them. And he will be given authority over EVERY tribe, people, language and nation. And so according to Rev 12:6,14 Satan will attack some of God's saints {Saved Offspring of the woman--Sarah} but they will be protected in God's sanctuary in the wilderness for 1260 days. Then in Rev 12:17 Satan will attack the rest of God's saints �WHO OBEY GOD'S COMMANDMENTS AND HOLD TO THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS� just before the coming of 666 and the beginning of the 1260-day or 42-month Great Tribulation. WHAT ARE THE KEY DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PRE-TRIBBERS AND POST-TRIBBERS WHO BELIEVE IN A 1,000 YEAR MILLENNIUM ON THIS PRESENT EARTH AFTER THE GREAT TRIBULATION?? Now the pre-Tribbers believe that the 1,000 year Millennium will come immediately after the Great Tribulation and that the Millennium will be populated by the saints who are alive at the end of the Tribulation. They believe these saints will not receive their eternal heavenly body at the end of the Tribulation since all of the verses that confirm new heavenly bodies applies only to saints who are resurrected before the Tribulation begins {Pre-Trib} such as I Corinthians 15:51,: Listen, I tell you a mystery; we will not all sleep, but we will ALL BE CHANGED--in a flash, in a flash, in a twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. Philippians 3:21,22: But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables Him to bring everything Under His control, will TRANSFORM OUR LOWLY BODIES so that hey will BE LIKE HIS GLORIOUS BODY! Pre-Tribbers believe that I Corinthians 15:51 and Philippians 3:21,22 take place at a rapture BEFORE the Great Tribulation begins. However, Post-Tribbers believe that ALL of the saints of all ages will receive their new eternal heavenly bodies at the Last Day of the Great Tribulation at the 2nd Coming of Jesus. Now those post-tribbers who believe in the 1,000 year Millennium AFTER the Great Tribulation must believe that it would be populated by those who are not saved since in the 1,000 year Millennium the people who populate will only live about 100 years as per Isaiah 65:20 and therefore could not have eternal heavenly bodies. However God's Word contradicts this view in Revelation 13:8: ALL INHABITANTS OF THE EARTH** will worship the Beast--ALL* whose names have not been written in the Book of Life belonging to the LAMB!! And in Revelation 14:9-11 it states that everyone who receives the Mark of the Beast or who worships the Beast or his image {On Worldwide TV & Internet?} have committed an unpardonable sin and will definitely go to Hell. And so it impossible for a Millennium AFTER the Tribulation to be populated by unbelievers who will later become believers!!! Now some Post-Tribbers who believe in a Millennium on this present earth believe that the Offspring of the woman {Sarah} are unbelieving Jews who will be protected for the 1260-day Tribulation in Revelation 12:6 and Revelation 12:14 and are therefore not part of Word of God in Revelation 13:8 above. However, we have shown above that ALL the Offspring of the Woman {Sarah} above are also believers!! Now all pre-tribbers and post-tribbers who believe in a Millennium on this earth AFTER the Great Tribulation believe that Jesus, the Prince of Peace will rule in Jerusalem in the Temple described in Ezekiel chapters 40-48. In Ezekiel chapters 40-48 the Prince is mentioned 17 times. He is the Leader of the Temple and offers thousands of animal sacrifices for his own sin and the sins of the believers????? Ezekiel 45:15,17,22,23: These will be used for the grain offerings, burnt offerings and fellowship offerings to MAKE ATONEMENT for the people... He {The Prince} will provide SIN OFFERINGS, grain offerings, burnt offerings and fellowship offerings to MAKE ATONEMENT for the house of Israel... On that day the Prince is to provide a bull as a SIN OFFERING FOR HIMSELF and for all the people of the land. Every day during the 7 days of the Feast he is to provide 7 bulls and 7 rams without defect as a burnt offering to the Lord, and a male goat as a SIN OFFERING ???? The Ezekiel Temple is obviously a symbolic Old Testament Temple which has nothing to do with the future as shown by countless New Testament Scripture such as: Hebrews 9:12: He entered the Most Holy Place ONCE FOR ALL by HIS OWN BLOOD, having obtained ETERNAL REDEMPTION! Hebrews 9:22; 26-28: The law requires that nearly everything be cleansed with blood, and without the shedding of blood THERE IS NO FORGIVENESS.... But now He has appeared ONCE FOR ALL at the end of the ages to do away with sin BY THE SACRIFICE OF HIMSELF!! Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, and Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people, and He will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for Him!! Hebrews 10:8-10: First He said, "Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings You did not desire, nor were You pleased with them," although the law required them to be made. Then He said, "Here I am, I have come to do Your will." He sets aside the first TO ESTABLISH THE SECOND. And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ ONCE FOR ALL!! I John 2:1,2: My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have One who speaks to the Father in our defense--Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. He is the ATONING SACRIFICE FOR OUR SINS, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world!! And so Post-Tribbers who do not believe in a 1,000 Millennium AFTER the Great Tribulation with the OT Ezekiel Temple should believe in a literal continuous 1,000 year Millennium for Martyrs and the 24 Elders on thrones only; which will end at the 2nd Coming of Jesus. The alternative is to believe that the 1,000 year first Resurrection is a Symbolic Fairy Tale. IS THE FIRST 1,000 YEAR RESURRECTION IN REVELATION 20:4-6 FOR MARTYRS LIKE JESUS AND THE 24 ELDERS ON THRONES WITH AUTHORITY TO JUDGE ONLY?? It is completely obvious that the continuous 1,000 year reign mentioned in Revelation 20:4-6 is for 24 ELDERS on THRONES and MARTYRS ONLY according to God's Word in: Revelation 20:4,5: "I saw [24]THRONES on which were seated those who had been given authority to JUDGE and I saw the SOULS of those who had been beheaded {Martyred} because of their testimony for Jesus {NT MARTYRS} and because of the word of God {OT MARTYRS}. They had not worshiped the beast and had not received his mark on their foreheads or their hands {TRIBULATION MARTYRS}. They came to life {AWOKE FROM SLEEP IN CHRIST} and reigned with Christ a thousand years. The rest of the dead {Saints who were not martyrs or the 24 elders} did not COME TO LIFE* until the thousand years were ended. {At the 2nd coming of Jesus} These could not be the lost since Rev 20:6,& 10 and Rev 21:8 state that on the Last Day the lost will suffer the SECOND DEATH!! WHO ARE THE 24 ELDERS ON THRONES SURROUNDING GOD'S THRONE?? Revelation 4:4 Surrounding God's throne were 24 OTHER THRONES, on seated on them were 24 ELDERS. They were dressed in WHITE and had crowns of Gold on their heads! Matthew 19:28: Jesus said to his Apostles, "I tell you the truth, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on His glorious throne, you have FOLLOWED ME {The Apostle Paul instead of Judas] will ALSO SIT ON 12 THRONES, JUDGING!! Luke 22:29,30: Jesus said to His Apostles, "I confer on you a Kingdom, just as My Father conferred one on Me, so that you may eat and drink at My table in My Kingdom and sit on THRONES, JUDGING!!" WHO DESERVES TO SIT ON THE OTHER 12 THRONES SURROUNDING GOD'S THRONE?? And certainly 12 OT Super saints of God will also deserve sitting on the other 12 THRONES surrounding God's throne such as Abraham, David, Moses, Elijah, Daniel, Isaiah, Samuel, Jeremiah, Joseph , Joshua, Noah and Enoch!! According to Revelation 20:4-6 there will be TWO Resurrections. The 1st continuous 1,000 year Heavenly Resurrection is for the 24 Elders on thrones and MARTYRS* LIKE JESUS ONLY* and will end at the 2nd coming of Jesus when the 2nd Resurrection will take place for the saints of all ages who are NOT MARTYRS!! In Daniel 12:2 just after the Great Tribulation we read, "Multitudes who SLEEP in the dust of the earth will AWAKE, some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt. I Thess 5:10: He {Jesus} died for us so that, whether we are AWAKE {Martyrs} or ASLEEP, we may live together with Him. I Corinthians 15:51,52: Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all SLEEP{Since the Martyrs are AWAKE} but we will all be changed--in a flash, in a twinkling of an eye, at the Last {7TH} Trumpet!! There are only TWO RESURRECTIONS for all saints mentioned in Rev 20:4-6: The FIRST RESURRECTION is for MARTYRS AND THE 24 ELDERS ON THRONES ONLY and INCLUDES the Tribulation Martyrs. And therefore the SECOND RESURRECTION must come on the Last Day of the Great Tribulation and must include ALL SAINTS {Both OT & NT} who are not martyrs or the 24 Elders on thrones. The Heavenly rewards for the faithful and courageous MARTYRS is one of the most important central themes in the book of Revelation. For they will reign with Jesus in Heaven during the 1,000 years before His 2nd Coming; like the TRIBULATION MARTYRS! Just before the 7 Trumpet Plagues in Revelation 8 we read : Revelation 7:9,13-15,17: I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from EVERY* nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the THRONE and in front of the LAMB. They were wearing white robes.... The one of the {24} ELDERS asked me, "These in white robes--who are they, where did they come from?" I answered, "Sir, you know." and he {The ELDER} said, " These are they who have COME OUT OF THE GREAT TRIBULATION {MARTYRS}, they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the LAMB. Therefore, THEY ARE BEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD and serve Him day and night in His Temple!!"... The LAMB in the center of the throne will be their Shepherd!! FOR EXAMPLE: Let us suppose that the SECOND RESURRECTION takes place on October 25th; 2021 then the continuous 1,000 year FIRST RESURRECTION for MARTYRS AND 24 ELDERS ONLY would take place from October 25th, AD 1021 to October 25th, 2021. The 24 Elders and all of the OT & NT saints martyred before October 25th, 1021 were awakened to reign with Jesus in Heaven and every Martyr martyred after October 25th, 1021 were and will be immediately awakened to reign with Jesus in the continuous 1,000 year FIRST RESURRECTION to be completed on October 25th, 2021 at the SECOND RESURRECTION when "The rest of the dead COME TO LIFE when the thousand years are ENDED." {Rev 20:5a} Rev 20:4b �I saw the SOULS of those who had been martyred because of their testimony for Jesus... they came to life and reigned with Christ for 1,000 years. {The Martyrs SOULS will get white robes but will only get their New Heavenly bodies when the 1,000 years are ENDED at the 2nd Coming of Jesus.} This seems to contradict John 6:40: Jesus says, �EVERYONE who looks to the Son and believes in Him shall have eternal life and I will raise him up at the LAST DAY.� HOWEVER, the LAST DAY RESURRECTION could last 1,000 years for in 2 Pet 3:8 we read: �With the Lord a DAY is like 1,000 years, and 1,000 years are like a DAY!! We see the martyrs talking in heaven at the beginning of the Great Tribulation in Revelation 6:9-11 and then we see a great multitude of martyrs who have come out of the Great Tribulation from every nation and language awake in heaven in Revelation 7:9-17 just BEFORE* the first 7 trumpet plagues in Revelation 8. And then just before the last 7 bowl plagues we see martyrs in heaven singing the song of the Lamb in Revelation 15:2-4: And then we see 144,000 Jewish martyrs in heaven with Jesus BEFORE Rome or Babylon is destroyed in Rev 14:8 in Revelation 14:1-5: Revelation 6:9-11: When He {Jesus} opened the 5th seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain {MARTYRS LIKE JESUS} because of the word of God and the testimony they had maintained. They called out in a loud voice, How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood? Then each of them were given a WHITE ROBE, and they were told to wait a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and brothers who were to be killed {TRIBULATION MARTYRS} as they had been was COMPLETED. This was COMPLETED just before the 7 trumpet plagues in Revelation 8:: Revelation 7:9,13-15,17: After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from EVERY nation, tribe, people and language standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb {Jesus} They were wearing WHITE ROBES. And they cried out in a loud voice, "Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne , and to the Lamb...Then one of the {24} ELDERS asked me, "Those in WHITE ROBES--who are they, and where did they come from?" And he said, "These are they who have come out of the GREAT TRIBULATION{MARTYRS LIKE JESUS}, they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the LAMB. Therefore, They are before the throne of God and serve Him day and night in His temple...The LAMB in the center of the throne will be their Shepherd!" Revelation 15:2,3: And I saw..those who had been victorious over the Beast {666} and his image and the number of his name {TRIBULATION MARTYRS}. They held harps given them by God and sang the song of Moses the servant of God and the song of the LAMB: "Great and marvelous are your deeds, Lord God Almighty. Just and true are your ways, King of the ages!" Note: Mount Zion is another name for heaven as per Hebrews 12:22. Revelation 14:1-4: Then I looked, an there before me was the LAMB, standing on Mount Zion, and with Him 144,000 {See Rev 7:3-8}...And I heard a sound from Heaven...And they sang a new song before the throne. No one could learn the song except the 144,000 who had been REDEEMED from the earth...They follow the LAMB wherever He goes. {They will all be martyredBEFORE the fall of Babylon in Revelation 14:8: A second angel followed and said, "Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great!" The 24 Elders on thrones are mentioned 12 TIMES in Revelation 5:4,10; :5,6,8,11,14; 7:11,13; 11:16-18; 14:3 and 19:4 The 24 Elders on thrones are mentioned many times speaking from heaven during the Great Tribulation and are the only saints mentioned in heaven during the Great Tribulation besides the MARTYRS!! The MARTYRS are mentioned numerous times in Revelation 2:10; :9-11; 7:9-17; 11:7; 12:11: 13:10; 13:15; 14:1-5; 14:13; 15:2-4; 16:6; 18:24!! It is completely obvious that the continuous 1,000 year reign mentioned in Revelation 20:4-6 is for 24 ELDERS on THRONES and MARTYRS ONLY according to God's Word in: Revelation 20:4,5: "I saw [24]THRONES on which were seated those who had been given authority to JUDGE and I saw the SOULS of those who had been beheaded {Martyred} because of their testimony for Jesus {NT MARTYRS} and because of the word of God {OT MARTYRS}. They had not worshiped the beast and had not received his mark on their foreheads or their hands {TRIBULATION MARTYRS}. They came to life {AWOKE FROM SLEEP IN CHRIST} and reigned with Christ a thousand years. The rest of the dead {Saints who were not martyrs or the 24 elders} did not COME TO LIFE* until the thousand years were ended. {At the 2nd coming of Jesus} These could not be the lost since Rev 20:6,& 10 and Rev 21:8 state that on the Last Day the lost will suffer the SECOND DEATH!! WHEN WAS SATAN STOPPED FROM DECEIVING THE NATIONS SO THAT THE GOSPEL COULD BE PREACHED TO EVERY NATION IN THE WORLD AS PER MATTHEW 24:14 AND REVELATION 7:9?? FOR EXAMPLE: Let us assume that the Great Tribulation will last 1260 days from May 14th, 2018 to October 25th, 2021. As you know Satan was successful in stopping the Gospel from spreading past 5% of the earth; or The Mid-East, Southern Europe and Northern Africa for almost 1000 years. Suddenly the Gospel was being preached throughout the pagan kingdoms of Russia, Finland, Denmark, Norway and Sweden around AD 1018. And in the past 1,000 years the Gospel has spread to all of Africa and Asia, North and South America, and all the remote islands of the earth. As you know the gospel must be preached to every nation of the earth before the end can come as per Matthew 24:14 and Revelation 7:9. And so about 95% of the world�s nations who were deceived by Satan; have heard the gospel for the first time during the past 1,000 years. Rev 20:2,3: �He {The angel} seized the dragon, who is the devil or Satan and bound him for 1,000 years {FOR EXAMPLE: May 14th, AD 1018 to May 14th, 2018}. He threw him into the Abyss to keep him from deceiving the nations until the 1,000 years were ended {On May 14th, 2018}. After that he must be set free for a short time.� Or 1260 days from May 14th, 2018 to October 25th, 2021 during the Great Tribulation when Satan will again DECEIVE ALL THE NATIONS for 1260 days until the Last Day. Revelation 13:4,5: Men WORSHIPED THE DRAGON {Satan as per Rev 12:9} because he had given authority to the Beast... The Beast will exercise his authority for 42 months (Not 7 years}.. And he will be given authority over EVERY tribe, people, language and NATION. All inhabitants of the earth will worship the Beast--all whose names have not been written in the Book of Life belonging to the LAMB that was slain!! And then on the Last Day of the 1260-day Tribulation, Revelation 20:10 states: And the DEVIL WHO DECEIVED THEM, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur where the Beast and the False Prophet had been thrown {See Rev 19:20} They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever! Revelation 12:11; They overcame him by the blood of the LAMB and by the word of their testimony; they {Like Jesus} did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death!! Revelation 2:10: Jesus says, "Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you the CROWN OF LIFE!!" Post Reply
View Profile History	OUR SINS ARE FORGIVEN BY THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST Posted : 7 Apr, 2017 03:56 PM WHAT WILL HAPPEN ON THE LAST DAY OF THE 1260-DAY GREAT TRIBULATION?? WILL IT INCLUDE THE RESURRECTION OF MOSES AND ELIJAH, THE STARS FALLING TO EARTH, THE SECOND COMING OF JESUS, OUR RECEIVING OUR NEW HEAVENLY BODIES, THE MARRIAGE FEAST OF THE LAMB, JESUS AND HIS SAINTS MOUNTING WHITE HORSES, THEIR CONQUERING OF 666 AND HIS 10 ARMIES, FIRE FROM HEAVEN DESTROYING SATAN'S ARMIES, 666, HIS FALSE PROPHET AND SATAN BEING THROWN ALIVE INTO HELL, THE RESURRECTION AND JUDGMENT OF THE LOST, THE COMPLETE ELIMINATION OF THE PRESENT HEAVENS AND EARTH, THE COMING OF THE NEW HEAVENS, THE NEW EARTH AND THE HEAVENLY NEW JERUSALEM AND THE COUNTLESS ETERNAL REWARDS FOR THE FAITHFUL AND LOVING SERVICE OF GOD'S SAINTS?? 666 will kill God's 2 witnesses { Moses and Elijah} at the Holy Place right where their Lord was crucified 3 1/2 days before the Last Day. NOTE: 666 is called the Beast 36 or 6X6 times in Revelation and Jesus is called the LAMB 30 times in Revelation THE AMAZING SIGNS WHICH WILL OCCUR JUST BEFORE THE 2ND COMING OF JESUS Revelation 11-13,15,18: But after 3 1/2 days a breath of life from God entered them, and the stood up on their feet,and terror struck those who saw them Then they heard a loud Voice from heaven saying to them, "Come up here." And they went up to heaven in a cloud, while their enemies looked on. At that very hour there was a severe earthquake and a tenth of the city {Jerusalem} collapsed. 7,000 people were killed in the earthquake and the survivors were terrified and GAVE GLORY TO THE GOD IN HEAVEN!... the 7th angel sounded his {7th & Last) Trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven which said, "The kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of the Lord and of His Christ...The time has come for judging the dead, and for rewarding Your servants the prophets and your saints!! Revelation 6:12-17: There was a great earthquake {In Jerusalem above} The sun turned black like sackcloth, the whole moon turned blood red, and the stars in the sky fell to earth. The sky receded like a scroll, rolling up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place! Then the kings of the earth, the princes, the generals, the rich, the mighty, and every slave and every free man hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains. They called on the mountains and the rocks "Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the LAMB. For the great day of Their wrath has come,and who can stand?" Matthew 24:29: Jesus says, "Immediately after the distress of those {1260} days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light and the stars will fall from the sky." Luke 21:28 adds "When these things begin to take place, stand up and and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near!" THE 2ND COMING OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST!! Matthew 24:30,32: Jesus says, "At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory. And He will send His angels with a loud {7th & Last--See Rev 11:15 and I Thess 4:16 and I Cor 15:51} Trumpet call, and they will gather His elect from the 4 winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.' {Mark 13:27 adds: "From the ends of the earth!"} All of the lost who have died will be awakened to view the 2nd coming of Jesus as per Revelation 1:7 and Matthew 26:64. ALL OF THE SAINTS OF ALL AGES WILL THEN RECEIVE THEIR NEW HEAVENLY BODIES!! Philippians 3:20,21: We eagerly await a Savior from heaven, the Lord Jesus Christ, who by the power that enables Him to bring everything under His control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like His glorious body!! I Corinthians 15:51: Listen, I tell you a mystery. We will not all sleep, but we will ALL** be changed--in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the Last {& 7th} Trumpet! {This will include all of the MARTYRS and 24 Elders on thrones who are AWAKE* in heaven surrounding God's Throne in the 1,000 years before the Second Coming of Jesus. See Rev 4:4; 6:9-11; 7:14,15; 20:4-6} {Those ASLEEP in Christ are also mentioned in I Corinthians 15:6,20} Daniel 12:1,2,7b: There will be a time of distress such as not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time your people--everyone whose name found written in the {LAMB'S} Book--will be delivered. Multitudes who SLEEP in the dust of the earth will AWAKE, some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt.... It will be for a time {360 days or 12 30-day months, times {720 days or 24 30-day months} and 1/2 a time 180 days or 6 30-day months}. When the power of the holy people has been broken, ALL THESE THINGS WILL BE COMPLETED!! Revelation 13:5,7,8: The Beast will exercise his authority for 42 {30-day} months.. He will be given authority over EVERY tribe, people language and nation. All inhabitants of the earth will worship the Beast--ALL whose names have not been written in the Book of Life belonging to the LAMB that was slain!! By comparing Revelation 12:6 with Revelation 12:14 we know that 1260 days and time, times and 1/2 a time are the exact same period of time By comparing Revelation 13:5 with Daniel 7:25 we know that 42 months and time, times and 1/2 a time is the exact same period of time. And therefore 42 {30-day} months and 1260 days are the exact same period of time!! Once the 1260-day Great Tribulation begins all of the saints who can add will know the exact date of the Last Day!! I Thessalonians 5:4,5,10: But you, brothers are not in darkness so that this Day {Mentioned in I Thess 4:15-17} should surprise you like a thief. You are all sons of the light and sons of the day...He died for us so that, whether we are AWAKE{Like the MARTYRS} or ASLEEP we may live together with Him. I Thess 4:14: We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen ASLEEP in Him. Revelation 3:3: Jesus says, "Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard. Obey it, and repent,. But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you!" AND THEN ALL OF THE SAINTS WILL ENJOY THE MARRIAGE FEAST OF THE LAMB Revelation 19:6-8: Hallelujah! For the Lord God Almighty reigns. Let us rejoice and be glad and give Him glory. For the Wedding of the LAMB has come, and His bride has made herself ready. Fine linen, bright was given her to wear! AND THEN JESUS AND HIS SAINTS WILL MOUNT WHITE HORSES AND CONQUER 666, HIS FALSE PROPHET, HIS 10 KINGS AND THEIR ARMIES!! Revelation 19:11,14,19-21: I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose Rider is called Faithful and True... The armies of heaven were following Him, riding on white horse and dressed in fine linen, white and clean... Then I saw the Beast and the {10} kings and their armies gathered together to make war against the Rider on the horse and His army. But the Beast was captured, and with him the False Prophet who had performed the miraculous signs on his behalf.With these signs he had deluded those who had received the mark of the beast and worshiped his image. The two of them were thrown alive into the lake of burning sulfur. The rest of them were killed by the sword that came out of the mouth of the Rider of the horse. Revelation 17:12-14 The 10 horns you saw {On the Beast} are 10 kings who will receive authority as kings along with the Beast They will make war against the LAMB, but the LAMB will overcome them because He is Lord of lords and King of kings--and with Him will be His CALLED, CHOSEN and FAITHFUL followers! {Riding on white horses} Shortly before the Last Day we read in Revelation 16:13-16: Then I saw 3 evil spirits that came out of the mouth of the Dragon {SATAN}, out of the mouth of the Beast {666} and out of the mouth of the False Prophet. They are spirits of demons performing miraculous signs, and they go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them for the battle on the great Day of God Almighty...Then they gathered the kings together to the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon. {77 miles North of Jerusalem} Then 666 and his 10 armies will travel to Jerusalem where 666 will kill Moses and Elijah 3 1/2 days before the Last Day. Revelation 20:9,10: Then fire from heaven will destroy Satan an the rest of the armies of the world. And the Devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the Beast and the False Prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever! THEN WILL COME THE RESURRECTION OF THE LOST AND THEIR JUDGMENT Revelation 20:11-15: Then I saw a great white throne and Him who was seated on it... And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person was judged according to what he had done. Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death. If anyone's name was not found written in the Book of Life, he was thrown into the lake of fire. 2 Thessalonians 1:1,6-10: To the CHURCH of the Thessalonians... God is just. He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed in blazing fire with His powerful angels, He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the Gospel of our Lord Jesus, They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the majesty of His power ON THE DAY HE COMES to be glorified in His holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed. THIS INCLUDES YOU! {This passage from God's Word absolutely contradicts the Pre-Trib Rapture fairy tale!!!} AND THEN THE PRESENT HEAVEN AND EARTH WILL BE COMPLETELY ELIMINATED Hebrews 12:26-28: God says, "Once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens. The words "once more" indicate the removing of what can be shaken--that is created things--so that what cannot be shaken may remain. Therefore, since we are receiving a KINGDOM that can not be shaken let us be thankful...for our God is a consuming fire! 2 Peter 3:10-13: But the Day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will DISAPPEAR with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and EVERYTHING in it will be burned up {NIV}. Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives as you wait eagerly for the Day of God to come. {NIV} That Day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat. But in keeping with His promise WE {Excluding the Preterists and the RC church} are looking forward to a NEW HEAVENS and a NEW EARTH, the home of righteousness. John 18:36: Jesus says, "My KINGDOM is not of this world....But now, my Kingdom is from another place!!" WE ARE ALL WAITING FOR THE NEW EARTH, THE NEW HEAVENS AND THE HEAVENLY NEW JERUSALEM!! Revelation 21:1-5: Then I saw a NEW HEAVEN and a NEW EARTH, for the {present} first heaven and first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the NEW JERUSALEM, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and He will live with them. They will be His people, and God Himself will be with them. They will be His people, and God Himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes, There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away." He who was seated on the throne said, "I am making EVERYTHING NEW!" Then He said, "Write this down, for these words are TRUSTWORTHY and TRUE!" AND JESUS WILL REWARD ALL HIS SAINTS ACCORDING TO WHAT HE HAS DONE!! SALVATION IS 100 % FREE BUT ETERNAL REWARDS ARE 100% EARNED!! Hebrews 11:1,6: Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see....And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He REWARDS* those who earnestly seek Him!! Ephesians 6:8: Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not men, because you know that the Lord will REWARD everyone for what ever good he does! Revelation 22:12 Jesus says, �Behold I am coming soon! My REWARD is with Me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done!� Matthew 16:27: Jesus says, �The Son of Man is going to come in His Father's glory with His angels and THEN He will REWARD each person according to what he has done!� Daniel 12:3: Those who are impart wisdom {NIV} will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever!! I Corinthians 3:7-9: So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who makes things grow. The man who plants and the man who watered have one purpose, and each will be REWARDED according to his own labor. For we are God's fellow workers, you are God's field, God's building! 2 Corinthians 5:9,10: We make it our goal to please Him... for we must all appear before the Judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive what is due him for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad. 1 Corinthians 3:13-15: His work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each man's work. If what he has built survives , he will receive his REWARD. If it is burned up he will suffer loss; he himself will be saved, but only as one escaping through the flames. 2 John 1:8: Watch out that you do not lose what you have worked for, but that you be REWARDED FULLY! Colossians 3:23-25: Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a REWARD. It is the Lord Christ you are serving. Anyone who does wrong will be repaid for his wrong, and there is no favoritism. 2 Peter 1:5-11: Make every effort to add to your faith {A Free Gift} goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness,LOVE. For it you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. But if anyone does not have them, he is near-sighted and blind, and has forgotten he has been cleansed of his past sins. Therefore, my brothers, be all the more eager to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never fail, and you will receive a RICH WELCOME into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Revelation 2:17: Jesus says, "To him who overcomes.. I will give him a white stone with a NEW NAME written on it, known only to him who receives it!!" Revelation 3:21: Jesus says, "To him who overcomes, I will give the right to SIT WITH ME on My throne, just as I overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne!!" HOW TO WIN HEAVENLY ETERNAL CROWNS I Corinthians 9:24-27: Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes in to strict training. They do it to get a CROWN that will not last; but we do it to get a CROWN THAT WILL LAST FOREVER! Therefore, I do not run like a man running aimlessly. I do not fight like a man beating the air. No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize! Revelation 3:11: Jesus says, �I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your CROWN!� 2 Timothy 4:7,8: I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the CROWN of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day�and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for His appearing! The CROWN OF LIFE for those who persevere under trials and persecution: James 1:12: Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the CROWN OF LIFE that God has promised to those who love Him! Revelation 2:10 Jesus says, �Do not be afraid of what you are about to suffer... Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you the CROWN OF LIFE!� Matthew 5:11,12: Jesus says, �Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your REWARD in heaven!� Hebrews 10:32-36: Remember those earlier days after you had received the Light, when you stood your ground in a great contest in the face of suffering. Sometimes you were publicly exposed to insult and persecution; at other times you stood side by side with those who were so treated. You sympathized with those in prison and joyfully accepted the confiscation of your property, because you knew that you yourselves had better and lasting possessions. So do not throw away your confidence; it will be RICHLY REWARDED. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, YOU RECEIVE WHAT HE HAS PROMISED**!!! Post Reply

View Profile History	OUR SINS ARE FORGIVEN BY THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST Posted : 11 Apr, 2017 04:40 PM "PRAY CONTINUALLY; GIVE THANKS IN ALL CIRCUMSTANCES, FOR THIS IS GOD'S WILL FOR YOU IN CHRIST JESUS!!" {I Thess 5:17,18} Matthew 6:5,6,9-11 Jesus commands, �When you PRAY, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to PRAY standing in the synagogues {churches} and on the street corners to be seen by men...But when you PRAY, go into your room, close the door and PRAY to your FATHER, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret will reward you... This, then, is how you should PRAY: �Our Father in heaven hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.� and Luke 11:4 adds, FORGIVE US OUR SINS, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us.� Matthew 6:7,8: Jesus says, "And when you PRAY, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask Him!" James 5:13-16: Is any one of you IN TROUBLE? He should PRAY!! Is any one of you SICK? He should call the elders {And only the elders!} of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the PRAYER offered in faith will make the sick person well, the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven. Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The PRAYER of a righteous man is powerful and effective! Acts 1:14: They all joined together CONSTANTLY IN PRAYER! Ephesians 6:18-19: PRAY in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind be alert and always keep on PRAYINGfor all the saints. PRAY also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the Gospel. I John 1:8,9; 2:1,2: If we {believers} claim to be without sin, WE DECEIVE OURSELVES and the truth is not in us. If we CONFESS OUR SINS, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we {believers} we have not sinned, we make Him out to be a liar and His word has no place in our lives....If anybody does sin, we have one who speaks to the Father in our defense--Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. He is the ATONING SACRIFICE FOR OUR SINS!! Hebrews 4:15,16: For we do not have a High Priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have One who has been tempted in every way, just as we are--yet was without sin. Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may RECEIVE MERCY AND FIND GRACE TO HELP US IN OUR TIME OF NEED!! Hebrews 12:5,6,10,11: Do not make light of the Lord's discipline, and do not lose heart when He rebukes you, because the LORD DISCIPLINES THOSE HE LOVES, And He punishes everyone He accepts as a son... God disciplines us for our own good, that we may share in His holiness. No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it. Luke 18:1: Then Jesus told His disciples a parable to show them that they should ALWAYS PRAY AND NEVER GIVE UP! John 14:13,14: Jesus says, "And I will do whatever you ask in My name, so that the Son may give glory to the Father. You may ask Me for anything in My name and I will do it!" Jeremiah 33:3; The Lord says, "Call to Me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know!" {This would help God's saints to correctly interpret many of the mysteries in God's Word!} Luke 11:1-4: The disciples asked Jesus, "Teach us to PRAY" Jesus said to His disciples, "When you PRAY, say: 'Father , hallowed be your name, Your kingdom come. Give us each day our DAILY bread. FORGIVE US {disciples}OUR SINS, for we forgive everyone who sins against us'" Here we see that Jesus tells His disciples to daily ask the Father to forgive them of their sins. God's Word states that we must be holy as God is holy as per I Peter 1:15,16; and to walk as Jesus walked as per I John 2:6. And God understands that we really don't understand how much we fall short and sin daily. The closer we get to God the more we realize how much we fall short and sin daily; and realize our need to confess our sins daily to get closer to God. Take Paul, the greatest NT saint, for example: I Timothy 1:15,16: Paul said, "Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners--of whom I AM THE WORST. But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, THE WORST OF SINNERS, Christ Jesus might display HIS UNLIMITED PATIENCE as an example for those who would believe on Him and receive eternal life. Matthew 26:41: Jesus says, �Watch and PRAY that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing but the body is weak.� I Timothy 5:5: The widow who is really in need and left all alone puts her hope in God and continues night and day to PRAY and ASK GOD FOR HELP!! I Thessalonians 5:17,18: PRAYCONTINUALLY; GIVE THANKS IN ALL circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. James 5:13: Is any one of you in trouble? He should PRAY.!!

Luke 22:41: Jesus KNELT down and PRAYED. Acts 9:40: Peter sent them all out of the room; then he got down on his KNEES and PRAYED. I Thessalonians 3:10: Night and day we PRAY* most earnestly that we may supply what is lacking in your faith. Ephesians 3:16-19: I PRAY that out of his glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I PRAY that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know that love which surpasses knowledge�that you may be filled to the measure of the fullness of God! 2 Thessalonians 1:11,12: We CONSTANTLY PRAY FOR YOU, that our God may count you worthy of His calling, and that by His power He may fulfill every good purpose of yours and every act prompted by your faith. We PRAY this that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in Him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ. John 17:15-17: Jesus prayed, �My PRAYER is not to take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one. Sanctify them by the Truth Your Word is Truth!� I Peter 3:12: The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and His ears are attentive to their PRAYER. Colossians 4:12: He is always wrestling in PRAYER for you, that you may stand firm in all the will of God, mature and fully assured. Philippians 4:6: Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by PRAYER and petition, with thanksgiving present your requests to God. I John 5:14,15 This is the confidence we have in approaching God; that if we ask anything ACCORDING TO HIS WILL He hears us. And if we know that He hears us--whatever we ask--we know that we have what we asked of Him.2 Corinthians 12:8,9: Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness!" James 4:3: When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with the wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures! Romans 8:26,27: The Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to PRAY for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. And He who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with GOD'S WILL! Matthew 18:10-14: Jesus said, �Two men went up to the temple to PRAY, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood up and PRAYED about himself: 'God, I thank you that I am not like other men�robbers, evildoers, adulterers�or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.' But the tax collector stood at a distance, He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, 'GOD, HAVE MERCY ON ME, A SINNER'!!.'"I tell you that this man rather than the other, went home justified before God. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted!� *FIX YOUR THOUGHTS* ON JESUS!! Hebrews 3:1: Therefore, holy brothers who share in the heavenly calling, FIX YOUR THOUGHTS ON JESUS!! Hebrews 4:12,13: The Word of God is living and active, sharper than any double edged sword... It judges the THOUGHTS and attitudes of the heart. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. EVERYTHING is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of Him to whom we must give account! 2 Corinthians 5:9,10: We make it our goal to please Him... For we must all appear before the Judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive what is due him for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad! 2 Corinthians 10:5: We take captive EVERY THOUGHT and make it obedient to Christ!! Romans 13:14: Clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and DO NOT THINK about how to satisfy the desires of the sinful nature! Matthew 22:37,38: Jesus says, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with ALL YOUR MIND!! This is the first and GREATEST commandment!!" Colossians 3:2: Set your MINDS ON THINGS ABOVE, not on earthly things! Romans 12:2: Be transformed by the RENEWING OF YOUR MIND. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--His good, pleasing and perfect will!! Romans 8:5,6: Those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their MINDS set on what the Spirit desires. The mind of sinful man is death, but the MIND controlled by the Spirit is life and peace! Philippians 4:8,9: Finally, brothers, whatever is TRUE, whatever is NOBLE, whatever is RIGHT, whatever is PURE, whatever is LOVELY, whatever is ADMIRABLE,THINK ABOUT SUCH THINGS... And the God of peace will be with you!!

I John 5:14,15 This is the confidence we have in approaching God; that if we ask anything ACCORDING TO HIS WILL He hears us. And if we know that He hears us--whatever we ask--we know that we have what we asked of Him.2 Corinthians 12:8,9: Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness!" James 4:3: When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with the wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures! Romans 8:26,27: The Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to PRAY for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. And He who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with GOD'S WILL! Matthew 18:10-14: Jesus said, �Two men went up to the temple to PRAY, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood up and PRAYED about himself: 'God, I thank you that I am not like other men�robbers, evildoers, adulterers�or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.' But the tax collector stood at a distance, He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, 'GOD, HAVE MERCY ON ME, A SINNER'!!.'"I tell you that this man rather than the other, went home justified before God. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted!� *FIX YOUR THOUGHTS* ON JESUS!! Hebrews 3:1: Therefore, holy brothers who share in the heavenly calling, FIX YOUR THOUGHTS ON JESUS!! Hebrews 4:12,13: The Word of God is living and active, sharper than any double edged sword... It judges the THOUGHTS and attitudes of the heart. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. EVERYTHING is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of Him to whom we must give account! 2 Corinthians 5:9,10: We make it our goal to please Him... For we must all appear before the Judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive what is due him for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad! 2 Corinthians 10:5: We take captive EVERY THOUGHT and make it obedient to Christ!! Romans 13:14: Clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and DO NOT THINK about how to satisfy the desires of the sinful nature! Matthew 22:37,38: Jesus says, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with ALL YOUR MIND!! This is the first and GREATEST commandment!!" Colossians 3:2: Set your MINDS ON THINGS ABOVE, not on earthly things! Romans 12:2: Be transformed by the RENEWING OF YOUR MIND. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--His good, pleasing and perfect will!! Romans 8:5,6: Those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their MINDS set on what the Spirit desires. The mind of sinful man is death, but the MIND controlled by the Spirit is life and peace! Philippians 4:8,9: Finally, brothers, whatever is TRUE, whatever is NOBLE, whatever is RIGHT, whatever is PURE, whatever is LOVELY, whatever is ADMIRABLE,THINK ABOUT SUCH THINGS**...

View Profile History	OUR SINS ARE FORGIVEN BY THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST Posted : 24 Apr, 2017 04:37 PM Now the pre-tribbers believe that ALL the CHURCH SAINTS, dead or alive, will be raptured BEFORE the Great Tribulation begins and that the unbelievers will be resurrected AFTER the Great Tribulation ends??? BUT WHAT DOES GOD'S WORD SAY?? 2 Thessalonians 1:1,6-10: To the CHURCH of the Thessalonians... God is just: He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen WHENthe Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with His powerful angels {See Matthew 24:29-31 and Matthew 25:31} He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the Gospel of our lord Jesus They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord ON THE DAY HE COMES to be glorified in His holy people {Including Church saints--See Matthew 25:31-46} and to be marveled at among all those who have believed. This includes YOU {Thessalonian Church saints} Pre-Tribbers also claim that the Church Saints and the Lost will not be resurrected on the same LAST DAY of the Great Tribulation?? BUT WHAT DOES GOD'S WORD SAY?? John 12:48: Jesus says, "There is a Judge for the one who rejects Me and does not accept My words, that very word which I spoke will condemn him on the LAST DAY!" See Matthew 25:31-46; Daniel 12:1,2 and John 5:28} John 6:40: Jesus says, ""For My Father's will is that EVERYONE who looks to the Son and believes in Him {CHURCH SAINTS}shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the LAST DAY!" So God's Word definitely shows that Jesus will reward His saints and judge the lost on the Last Day when He comes IN GLORY WITH ALL HIS ANGELS{Matthew 16:27; 24:29,30; 25:31} or WHEN HE IS REVEALED FROM HEAVEN WITH HIS POWERFUL ANGELS** as per 2 Thessalonians 1:1,6-10!! John 5:28,29: Jesus says, �Do not be amazed at this, for a time is coming {The Last Day} when ALL {Both OT & NT Saints} who are in their graves will hear His voice and come out�those who have done good will rise to live, and those who have done evil will rise to be condemned.� Daniel 12:1b,2,7b: �There will be a time of distress {The Great Tribulation} such as not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time {The Last Day} your people--EVERYONE whose name is found written in the Book {Both OT & NT Saints}�will be delivered. Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt�It will be for a time. times and half a time {1260 days-Rev 12:6,14, or 42 {30-day} months-Rev 13:5-{Not 7 years} ALL these things will be COMPLETED. The pre-tribbers wrongly believe that the OT saints will receive their eternal perfect heavenly bodies 7 years or 1260 days AFTER the Church saints. However, in Hebrews 11:39,40 we read �These {OT super saints mentioned in Heb 11:4-38} were all commended for their faith, yet none of them received what had been promised. God had planned something better for us so that ONLY TOGETHER WITH US {NT Saints} would they {OT Saints} be made perfect!� Pre-Tribbers also claim that the Holy Spirit will be removed from all the saints during the Great Tribulation because of a ridiculous interpretation of 2 Thessalonians 2:7??? BUT WHAT DOES GOD'S WORD SAY?? Mark 13:11: Jesus says, "Whenever you are arrested and brought to trial {During the Great Tribulation}, do not worry beforehand what to say, but say whatever is given to you at the time, for it is not you speaking, but the HOLY SPIRIT!!!" Pre-Tribbers also claim that the saints will not go through the Great Tribulation because they would then suffer the WRATH* of God. BUT WHAT DOES GOD'S WORD SAY?? Romans 5:9: Since we have been justified by His blood, how much more shall we be saved from GOD'S WRATH through Him!. God's Tribulation saints will not be hurt by GOD'S WRATH during the Great Tribulation! The horrific 7 Trumpet Plagues and 7 Bowl Plagues and eternal torment in Hell; are reserved only for the unbelievers and will not hurt God's saints in any way just as the 10 OT Egyptian plagues did not hurt any of God's people. Revelation 9:4-6: They were told to only harm those people who did not have the seal of God on their heads. They were not given power to kill them, but only to torture them for 5 months. During these days men will seek death, but will not find it they will long to die but death will elude them. Revelation 9:18,20,21: A third of mankind will be killed by the plagues of fire, smoke and sulfur that comes out of their mouths.... The rest of mankind that were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands, they did not stop worshiping demons and idols of gold... Nor did they repent of their murders, their magic arts, their sexual immorality or their thefts! Revelation 16:2: The first angel went and poured out his bowl on the land, and ugly and painful sores broke out on the people who had the mark of the beast and worshiped his image! Revelation 16:6: They have shed the blood of your saints and prophets, and You have given them blood to drink as they deserve! Revelation 16:9: They were seared by the intense heat and cursed the name of God who had control over these plagues, but they refused to repent and glorify Him! Revelation 16:10: Men gnawed their tongues in agony and cursed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, but they refused to repent of what they had done. Revelation 14:9,10: If anyone worships the Beast and his image and receives his mark on the forehead or on the hand, he, too, will drink of the wine of God's fury, which has been poured full strength into the cup of HIS WRATH He will be tormented with burning sulfur...and the smoke of their torment rises for ever and ever! Pre-Tribbers also claim that all of the Church saints will be raptured BEFORE the MAN OF LAWLESSNESS IS REVEALED?? BUT WHAT DOES GOD'S WORD SAY?? 2 Thessalonians 2:1-4: Concerning the Coming of our Lord Jesus and OUR {CHURCH SAINTS} being gathered to Him, we ask you brothers, not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by some prophecy, report or letter, supposed to have come from us, saying that the Day of the Lord has already come . Don't let anyone {Like Pre-Tribbers} deceive you in any way, for that day will not come UNTIL THE MAN OF LAWLESSNESS IS REVEALED!... The lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of His mouth and destroy by the splendor OF HIS COMING!! {On the LAST DAY of the Great Tribulation*} I Peter 1:13: �Therefore, prepare your minds for ACTION, and set your hope FULLY* on the grace to be given YOU when Jesus Christ is REVEALED. I Corinthians 1:7: �YOU do not lack any spiritual gift as YOU eagerly wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to be REVEALED.� Now the pre-tribbers claim that the glorious REVEALING or REVELATION* of Jesus will be CONCEALED BEFORE the beginning of the Great Tribulation. However, every other time the Word REVEALED {Greek-Apocalypsis} is used related to resurrection events it refers to the glorious REVEALING of Jesus on the LAST DAY of the Great Tribulation {See 2 Thess 1:7-10 & Luke 17:26-31}. And CONCEALED is the exact opposite of REVEALED and APPEARED according to every dictionary! Titus 2:13 We wait for the BLESSED HOPE---the glorious APPEARING of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ!! Hebrews 9:28: Jesus will APPEAR a 2nd time {And not a 3rd TIME!} to bring salvation to those who are waiting for Him! Colossians 3:4: When Christ, who is your life APPEARS, then you also will APPEAR with Him in glory.� I John 3:2,3: �When Jesus APPEARS, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is. Everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure!!� Matthew 24:29,30: Jesus says, �IMMEDIATELY AFTER the distress of those days {The Great Tribulation} the sun will be darkened and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky. At that time the sign of the Son of Man will APPEAR in the sky and the nations will see the Son of Man COMING on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory!!� I John 2:28: �Dear children, continue in Him, so that when He APPEARS WE may be confident and unashamed before Him at His COMING!� {See 2 Thess 1:7-10; I Tim 6:14; Heb 9:28 & Col 3:4} 2 Tim 4:8: Paul said, There is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on THAT DAY�and not only to me, but to ALL who have longed for His APPEARING!!� I Peter 5:4: �When the Chief Shepherd APPEARS, you will receive the crown of glory that will never fade away!� 2 Thess 1:1,6-10: �To the CHURCH of the Thessalonians�God is just; He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen WHEN the Lord Jesus is REVEALED {See I Peter 1:13} from heaven in blazing fire�. He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord ON THE DAY HE COMES to be glorified in His holy people!! This includes YOU {Thessalonian CHURCH SAINTS} Now the Pre-Tribbers claim that all the resurrection versus on the second coming of Jesus will occur on the LAST DAY of the Great Tribulation EXCEPT for I Thessalonians 4;16-18 and I Corinthians 15:51,52 which tells of a secret silent rapture just before the Great Tribulation when 666 is revealed??? BUT WHAT DOES THESE VERSES REALLY TEACH?? I Corinthians 15:51,52: Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we ALL will be changed--in the twinkling of an eye, at the LAST TRUMPET. For the TRUMPET will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable and WE will be changed! Revelation 8:1,2: When He {Jesus} opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. And I saw 7 angels who stand before God and to them were given 7 TRUMPETS! Revelation 11:15,18: The seventh {And LAST} angel sounded his {7TH & LAST} TRUMPET, and there were loud voices in heaven, which said: "The kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord and His Christ, and He will reign for ever and ever... The time has come for judging the dead, and rewarding your servants and your saints who reverence your name and for destroying those who destroy the earth!" And so the 7th angel will sound the 7th and LAST TRUMPET on the LAST DAY of the Great Tribulation!! I Thessalonians 4:16,17; 5:2,4: For the Lord Himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel {See Rev 14:15} and with the TRUMPET{See Matt 24:30 & Rev 11:15,18 & I Cor 15:52} call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the CLOUDS {See Matt 24:30 and Rev 14:14} to meet the Lord in the air.... The Day of the Lord {In I Cor 4:17 above}will come like a thief in the night {To unbelievers}While people are saying, "Peace and safety," destruction will come on them {Unbelievers} suddenly {On the same Day as the Resurrection in I Cor 4:17 above!!}... But you brothers, are not in darkness so that this Day should surprise you like a thief. You are ALL sons of the light and sons of the Day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness! Revelation 3:3: Jesus says, "Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; obey it and repent. But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will COME TO YOU!" Once the 1260-day Great Tribulation begins all of God's saints who can add will know the exact day of the Second Coming of Jesus on the Last Day. And when the stars start falling to earth the saints will know the exact hour of the Second Coming of Jesus!! Matthew 24:29-31: Jesus says, "Immediately after the distress of those {1260} days the sun will be darkened, and the stars will fall from the sky {Luke 21:28 adds: "When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near!!"} At that time the sign of the Son of Man coming on the CLOUDS {See I Thess 4:17} of the sky, with power and great glory. And He will send His angels with a loud TRUMPET {See I Cor 15:52 & I Thess 4::16 & Rev 11:15,18} call an they will gather His ELECT {See Rom 11:5-7; 2 Tim 2:10 & Titus 1:1!}} from the 4 winds, from one end of the heavens to the other!" {Mark 13:27 adds: "From the ends of the earth."} Now the Pre-Tribbers claim that the ELECT OF JESUS mentioned in Matthew 24:31 are all OT Jewish saints and not CHURCH SAINTS. BUT WHAT DOES GOD'S WORD SAY?? Romans 11:5-7: At the present time there is a remnant CHOSEN by grace. And if by grace, then it is no longer by works, if it were, grace would no longer be grace! What then? What Israel sought so earnestly it did not obtain, but the ELECT did! 2 Timothy 2:10: Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the ELECT, that they too may obtain the SALVATION THAT IS IN CHRIST JESUS! Titus 1:1: Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ for the faith of God's ELECT! John 6:39,44: Jesus says, "And this is the will of Him who sent Me that I shall lose none of all that He has given Me {God's ELECT}, but raise them up at the LAST DAY... No one can come to Me UNLESS the Father DRAWS him, and I will raise him up at the LAST DAY!" John 12:48: Jesus says, "There is a Judge for the one who rejects Me and does not accept My words, that very word which I spoke will condemn him at the LAST DAY!" It is interesting to note that a pre-trib rapture fairy tale of God's saints is not mentioned even ONCE in the Olivet Prophetic sermon of Jesus in Matthew 24,25, Mark 13 and Luke 21 or in all the prophecies in the book of Revelation. Revelation 1:1-3: The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show what must take place. He made it known by sending His angel to His servant John, who testifies to everything he saw--that is, the Word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ. Blessed is the one who reads the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it! Revelation 22:16,18-20: "I, Jesus, have sent My angel to give you this testimony FOR THE CHURCHES... I warn everyone who hears the word of the prophecy of this book. If anyone ADDS {Like the Pre-Trib Rapture} anything to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book. And if anyone TAKES WORDS AWAY from this book of prophecy. God will take away from him his share in the Tree of Life and in the Holy City {The New Jerusalem}, which are described in this book!" The fact that John Nelson Darby invented the pre-tribulation rapture doctrine around 1830 AD is unquestionably true. All attempts to find evidence of this wild doctrine before 1830 have failed, with a single exception: Morgan Edwards wrote a short essay as a college paper for Bristol Baptist College in Bristol England in 1744 where he confused the second coming with the first resurrection of Revelation 20 and described a "pre-tribulation" rapture. However Edwards ideas, which he admitted were brand new and never before taught, had no influence in the modern population of the false doctrine. That prize to goes to Darby. Prior to 1830, NO CHURCH taught the pre-trib rapture in their creed, catechism or statement of faith. NOTE: There will be 2 Comings of Jesus on the SAME LAST DAY. The first Coming will be FOR HIS SAINTS and the 2nd Coming WITH HIS SAINTS RIDING ON WHITE HORSES right after the Marriage Feast of the LAMB!! Revelation 19:6-8,11,13,14,19,20: Hallelujah! For the Lord God Almighty reigns. Let us rejoice and be glad and give Him glory! For the wedding of the LAMB has come and His bride has made herself ready. Fine linen, bright and clean was given her to wear.... I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose Rider is called Faithful and True...He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood and His name is the Word of God. THE ARMIES OF HEAVEN WERE FOLLOWING HIM *RIDING ON WHITE HORSES* and dressed in fine linen white and clean (See Rev 19:8 above}... Then I saw the beast and the kings of the earth AND THEIR ARMIES gathered together to make war against the rider on the horse and His army. But the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who had performed the miraculous signs on his behalf. With these signs he had deluded those who received the mark of the beast and worshiped his image. {See Rev 13:11-17} The two of them were thrown ALIVE into the fiery lake of burning sulfur. Rev 20:10: And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.{Just like all their followers as per Rev 14:9-11} Revelation 17:14: They will make war against the LAMB, but the LAMB will overcome them because He is Lord of lords and King of kings, and with Him will be His CALLED, CHOSEN and FAITHFUL followers!! {RIDING ON FLYING WHITE HORSES which will be the saints transportation in the NEW EARTH} And so the saints will be resurrected first on the LAST DAY and then AFTER the Marriage Feast of the LAMB, the lost will be resurrected later on the SAME LAST DAY. And so this explains Matthew 24:40: Jesus says, "Two will be in the field, one will be taken and the other left. Two women will be grinding with a hand mill one will be taken and the other left!" Matthew 25:31-34,41,46: Jesus says, "WHEN the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him. He will sit on His throne in heavenly glory. All the nations will be gathered before Him and He will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. He will put the sheep on His right and the goats on His left. Then the King will say to those on His right, 'Come, you who are blessed by My Father, take your inheritance the Kingdom prepared for you.'... Then He will say to those on His left, 'Depart from Me, you who are cursed, into the eternal for prepared for the devil and his angels.' ... Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life." Now the Pre-Tribbers love to quote a promise made to the Church at Philadelphia in AD 96: Revelation 3:1,10: Jesus said, "To the angel of the church at Philadelphia write... Since you have kept My command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going that is going to come on the whole {Roman} world to test those who live on the earth." In Ad 96 the Roman Caesar, Domitian, decreed that everyone in the Roman world must worship idols of former Roman Caesars or else they would be killed or put in prison. And because of this decree John was put in prison in AD 96 on the Isle of Patmos as per Revelation 1:9. However, Jesus did not make the same promise to the future Great Tribulation saints: Matthew 24:9: Jesus says, "THEN you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by ALL NATIONS because of Me!" Revelation 13:5-10: The Beast will be given authority for 42 {30-day} months...He will be given power to make war against the SAINTS and to conquer them. And he will be given authority over EVERY tribe, people language and NATION All inhabitants of the earth will worship the Beast--all whose names have not been written in the Book of Life belonging to the LAMB{CHURCH SAINTS}. He who has an ear let him hear: If anyone is to go into captivity, into captivity he will go. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, with the sword he will be killed. This calls for patient endurance on the part of the SAINTS! Revelation 12:11: They overcame him by the blood of the LAMB and by the word of their testimony: They did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death!! {Just Like Jesus!}! Read Revelation 6:9-11 and Revelation 7:9,13-15!!! Revelation 6:9-11: When He {Jesus} opened the 5th seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain {MARTYRS LIKE JESUS} because of the word of God and the testimony they had maintained. They called out in a loud voice, How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood? Then each of them were given a WHITE ROBE, and they were told to wait a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and brothers who were to be killed {TRIBULATION MARTYRS} as they had been was COMPLETED. This was COMPLETED just before the 7 trumpet plagues in Revelation 8:: Revelation 7:9,13-15,17: After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from EVERY NATION, TRIBE, PEOPLE AND LANGUAGE standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb {Jesus} They were wearing WHITE ROBES. And they cried out in a loud voice, "Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne , and to the Lamb...Then one of the {24} ELDERS asked me, "Those in WHITE ROBES--who are they, and where did they come from?" And he said, "These are they who have come out of the GREAT TRIBULATION {MARTYRS LIKE JESUS}, they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the LAMB {CHURCH SAINTS}. Therefore, They are before the throne of God and serve Him day and night in His temple...The LAMB in the center of the throne will be their Shepherd!" And so the Pre-Trib teaching that the Great Tribulation is only a TIME OF JACOB'S TROUBLE is a complete fairy tale!! Post Reply
