Admin	"Though your sins are like scarlet they shall be as White as Snow!!" Posted : 30 Oct, 2017 08:09 AM Romans 4:5-8: To the one who does not work but trusts God who justifies the ungodly, their faith is credited as righteousness! David says {In Psalm 32:1} the same thing when he speaks of the blessedness of the one to whom God's credits righteousness **APART FROM WORKS**: "Blessed are those whose transgressions are covered. Blessed is the one whose sin the Lord will **NEVER** count against them!" 2 Corinthians 5:19,21: God was reconciling the world to Himself in Christ, not counting people's sins against them... God made Him who had no sin to be **SIN FOR US**, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God! Isaiah 1:18: The Lord says, "Though your sins are like scarlet they shall be as **WHITE AS SNOW**!" Isaiah 53:5,6: He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on Him, and BY HIS WOUNDS WE ARE HEALED. We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way, and the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all! Every born again Christian not including Hark believes Isaiah 53 is referring to Jesus as Peter confirms in I Peter 2:24,25: I Peter 2:24,25: He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; "BY HIS WOUNDS WE ARE HEALED." For "You were like sheep going astray," but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls! Hebrews 8:4,5,12,13: "The days are coming," declares the Lord, "When I will make a **NEW COVENANT** with the people of Israel... For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins **NO MORE**! By calling this Covenant **NEW** He has made the first one obsolete; and what is obsolete and outdated will soon disappear!! Jeremiah 31:31,34: "The days are coming," declares the Lord, "When I will make a **NEW COVENANT** with the people of Israel... For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins **NO MORE**!" Luke 16:16: Jesus says, "The Law and the prophets were proclaimed until John {The Baptist}. Since that time, the Good News of the Kingdom of God is being proclaimed!" Colossians 2:13,14: When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, God **MADE YOU ALIVE WITH CHRIST**. He forgave us **ALL OUR SINS** having canceled the charge of our legal indebted ness, which stood against us and condemned us, He has taken it away, nailing it to the cross!! Ephesians 1:4-8: In love He predestined us for adoption to sonship 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 with the riches of God's grace that He lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding!! Hebrews 10:22,26-28: The law requires that nearly everything be cleansed with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness... Christ has appeared once for all at the culmination of the ages to **DO AWAY WITH SIN** by the sacrifice of Himself. Just as people are destined to die once and after that to face judgment, so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many; and He will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for Him!! Hebrews 10:5,8-10: When Christ came into the world, He said... "Sacrifices burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not desire, nor were you pleased with them!"-- though they were offered in accordance with the law. Then He said, "Here I am. I have come to do your will." He sets aside the first to establish the second {Covenant}. And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ **ONCE FOR ALL**!! I Peter 1:18,19: For you know that it was not with perishable things like silver and gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you by your ancestors, but with the **PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST**, a lamb without blemish or defect!! Matthew 18:21,22;; Peter asked Jesus, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to 7 times? Jesus answered, "I tell you not 7 times but 77 times!!" {A NIV footnote adds or "70 times 7!} Luke 11:1-4: The disciples said to Jesus, "Lord, teach us to pray." Jesus answered, "When you pray, say: "Father, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come. Give us each day our daily bread. Forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us!" I John 1:8-10;2:1-6: If we 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 have not sinned, we make Him out to be a liar and His word is not in us. My dear children, I write this to you that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have an Advocate with the Father--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. We know that we have come to know Him if we keep His commands. Whoever says, "I know Him," but does not do what He commands is a liar, and the truth is not in that person. But if anyone obeys His Word, love for God is truly made complete in them. This is how we know we are in Him. Whoever claims to live in Him must live as Jesus did! {Which is impossible and is why we must confess our sins daily!} Matthew 28:18-20: Jesus says, "**ALL AUTHORITY** in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to **OBEY EVERYTHING** I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always!!" Post Reply

Revelation 6:9-11: When He {Jesus} opened the fifth seal I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the Word of God and the testimony they had maintained {**MARTYRS**}. They called out in a loud voice, How long Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until You judge the inhabitants of the earth an 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 as they had been was completed! Revelation 6:9-11 above will take place at the **BEGINNING** of the 1260-day Great Tribulation and **BEFORE** the Last Day!! Revelation 7:9,10,13-17: After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no on could count, from **EVERY** nation, tribe, people and language, {Not just Jacob's Trouble!} standing before the throne and before the **LAMB**. They were wearing **WHITE ROBES** and were holding palm branches in their hands. And the 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, "These 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**}; they have washed their robes in the blood of the **LAMB**. Therefore, they are before the throne of God and serve Him day and night in His temple; and He who sits on the throne will shelter them with His presence. Never again will they hunger; never again will they thirst. The sun will not beat down on them, nor any scorching heat. For the **LAMB** at the center of the throne will be their Shepherd; He will lead them to springs of living water. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes!" Revelation 7:0-17 above will take place shortly **BEFORE** the 7 Trumpet plagues in Revelation 8 and **BEFORE** the second resurrection of the other saints who are asleep in Christ and who are not **MARTYRS** like Jesus on the Last Day!! Revelation 14:1-3,8: Then I looked and there before me was the **LAMB**, standing on Mount Zion {Another name for Heaven as per Heb 12:22}, and with him the 144,000 who had His name written on their foreheads. And I heard a sound from **HEAVEN** like the roar of rushing waters and like a loud peal of thunder. The sound I heard was like that of harpists playing their harps. And they sang a new song before the **THRONE** and before the 4 living creatures and the {24} ELDERS. No one could learn the song except the 144,000 who had been **REDEEMED FROM THE EARTH**!... A 2nd angel followed and said, "Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great, which made all the nations drink the maddening wine of her adulteries!" The fall of Babylon which will be the headquarters of 666 in the evil city on 7 hills or Rome will occur a few weeks before the Last Day/} And so the 144,000 from the 12 tribes of Israel who are saved during the Great Tribulation in Revelation 7 will all have been **MARTYRED** and in Heaven **BEFORE** the headquarters of 666 is destroyed a few weeks **BEFORE** the Last Day! Revelation 15:1-5: I saw in **HEAVEN** another great and marvelous sign: 7 angels with the 7 last plagues--last, because with them God's wrath is completed. And I saw what looked like a sea of glass glowing with fire and, standing beside the sea, those who had been victorious over the Beast and his image and over the number of his name {**TRIBULATION MARTYRS**} They had harps given them by God and sang the song of God's servant and of the **LAMB**! So again we see **MARTYRS** like Jesus **AWAKE** in heaven with heavenly bodies and dressed in White Robes **BEFORE** the Last Day!! 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 was found in the {**LAMB'S**} Book--will be delivered. Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake; {Except the **MARTYRS** who are already AWAKE} some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt... It will be for a time {360 days} times {720 days} and 1/2 a time {180 days}. When the power of the holy people has been finally broken, **ALL** these things will be **COMPLETED**! ! Corinthians 15:50-52: I declare to you brothers and sisters that flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God. Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will no all sleep {Since the **MARTYRS** are **AWAKE**}, but we will all be changed--in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye at the **LAST {LOUD & 7TH} TRUMPET**{See Matt 24:31; I Thess 4:16, Rev 10:7 & 11:15-18. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. Except the 24 ELDERS and **MARTYRS** like Jesus who are already **ALIVE** **CHANGED** and **AWAKE** in heaven!!! These 24 Elders on 24 thrones surrounding the Thrones of the Father and Jesus; are mentioned **12 TIMES** in Revelation 4:4,10; 5:5,6,8,11,14; 7:11,13; 11:16-18; 14:3 and 19:4!! The **MARTYRS** who are **AWAKE* and are already reigning in Heaven are mentioned about **24 TIMES** in Revelation 6:9-11; 7:9,10,13-17; 8:3,4; 11:7-12; 12:11; 13:11,15; 14:1-5,13; 15:2-4; 16:6; 18:24 and 19:2! The **24 ELDERS** and the **MARTYRS are the only saints mentioned in heaven who are already **AWAKE** and **REIGNING** with Jesus in heaven during the 1260-day Great Tribulation in Revelation 4:4 to Revelation 19:4. If there was a pre-trib rapture of all the Church saints **BEFORE** the Great Tribulation why are they never mentioned in heaven during the Great Tribulation in Revelation 4:4 thru 19:4 ????? It is completely obvious that the 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 20:4,5b,6a: "I saw Thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to JUDGE and I saw the SOULS of those who had been beheaded {Or martyred} because of their testimony for Jesus {NT Martyrs} and because of the Word of God {OT Martyrs}. They had not worshiped the beast or his image and had not received his mark on their foreheads or their hands {Tribulation Martyrs}. THEY {THE 24 ELDERS & MARTYRS} came to life and reigned with Christ for 1,000 years... This is the FIRST RESURRECTION... Blessed and holy are those who have part in the FIRST RESURRECTION. Rev 20:5a: �The rest of the dead {Those saints who are not martyrs or the 24 Elders on Thrones} did not come to life until the 1,000 years were ENDED.� Which, of course, would be the SECOND RESURRECTION at the 2nd Coming of Jesus. There are only TWO RESURRECTIONS for all saints mentioned in Rev 20:4-6: The FIRST RESURRECTION is for Martyrs and the 24 Elders 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!! Post Reply

Posted : 15 Nov, 2017 07:19 AM MILLIONS of Christians across the world are facing punishments including imprisonment, torture and death for practicing their faith, shocking new research has revealed. Pakistan among worst places for Christian persecution. North Korea, Somalia and Afghanistan are the worst countries to openly follow the teachings of the Bible, according to the study by Open Doors. North Korea has been branded the most dangerous country in the world for Christians since 2002. The Christian charity found the global level of Christian persecution has risen for the fourth year in a row, with Asian countries showing a particularly rapid rise. The study found Islamic extremism was responsible for increased hostility in 14 of the top 20 counties on its list. And the research discovered followers of Jesus living in India were faced with a �very high� level of persecution as �Hindu nationalists batter the churches�. Millions of Christians around the world now live their lives against varying levels of discrimination, discovery, violence and arrest. The charity concludes �millions of Christians around the world now live their lives against varying levels of discrimination, discovery, violence and arrest�. The study highlighted the top 50 countries where it is most difficult to practice the Christian faith, and rated levels of persecution as �extreme�, �very high� or �high�. North Korea topped the list because of dictator Kim Jong-un�s brutal crackdown against the nation's estimated 300,000 Christians. The tyrant�s family are worshipped like gods and any suggestion there is a higher authority than the supreme leader is �immediately crushed�. Open Doors says: �Tens of thousands of Christians are incarcerated in horrific labour camps, and thousands more keep their faith in Christ a complete secret - often their own family members do not know of their faith.� In lawless Somalia, which ranks second for persecution, the charity says people even suspected of being a Christian can be murdered on the spot. The militant Islamist group al-Shabaab, which is highly active in the East African nation, has made making Somalia �free of all Christians� one of its missions. The Kim family are viewed as gods in North Korea and Christians face imprisonment or death. The charity's research says in Afghanistan, which ranks third in the study, it is illegal for Afghans to practice any faith other than Islam. But despite the ban, Open Doors estimates there are thousands of Christians living in the central Asian country. The charity says: �Discovered believers will sometimes be sent to a mental hospital, as families believe no sane person would leave Islam.� The study ranked India 15th on its list because it says there are efforts to impose national anti-conversion laws to prevent anyone from practicing anything other than Hinduism. The charity says a massive 63.9 million Christians are living in the vast South Asian state, and face persecution from the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party. The research says: �Some of those who have left Hinduism to follow Jesus have been attacked and even killed by their own parents.� China is ranked 39th and was found to have a �high� level of persecution. The world�s most populous country is home to an estimated 97.2million Christians and Open Doors says �a considerable number� of those are still imprisoned for practicing their faith. The study says: �Violence is at a very high level and is increasing. �Church meetings continue to be disrupted in several provinces. �Churches were also closed and landlords pressured to stop renting premises to Christians.� Open Doors has identified eight main 'engines' of persecution that describe why Christians are persecuted in a particular area or setting. �Islamic extremism - attempts to bring the country or the world under the 'House of Islam' through violent or non-violent actions. �Religious nationalism - attempts to conquer the nation for one's religion. Mainly Hinduism and Buddhism, or other religions. �Ethnic antagonism - attempts to force the continuing influence of age-old norms and values shaped in 'tribal' context. Often comes in the form of traditional religion or something similar �Denominational protectionism - attempts to maintain one's Christian denomination as the only legitimate or dominant expression of Christianity in the country. In most cases this Christian denomination is the majority Christian denomination. The worst offender is the Roman Catholic Church in Central and South America. �Communist and post-Communist oppression - attempts to maintain Communism as a prescriptive ideology and/or controls the church through a system of registration and oversight that has come from Communism �Secular intolerance - attempts to eradicate religion from the public and private domain, and imposes an atheistic form of secularism as a new governing ideology �Organised corruption and crime - attempts to create a climate of impunity, anarchy and corruption as a means for self-enrichment �Dictatorial paranoia - does anything to maintain power; not specifically focused on realising a vision.

Posted : 15 Nov, 2017 01:06 PM There are many pre-tribbers who believe that: God forbid that Christians should suffer Tribulation??? Romans 8:35-37: �Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?... For your sake **WE FACE DEATH ALL DAY LONG**; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered. No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us!� John 13:34: Jesus says, "A **NEW COMMAND** I give you: **LOVE* one another As I have **LOVED** you, so you must **LOVE** one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples." 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. I John 3:16: This is how we know what **LOVE** is: Jesus Christ laid down His life for us. And we ought to l**LAY DOWN OUR LIVES** for our brothers! I Peter 2:20b,21: �But if you **SUFFER FOR DOING GOOD** and endure it, this is commendable before God. To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow **IN HIS STEPS** I Peter 4:12,13: �Dear friends, do not be surprised at the painful trial you are suffering, as though something strange were happening to you. But **REJOICE THAT YOU PARTICIPATE IN THE SUFFERINGS OF CHRIST**, so that you may be overjoyed when His glory is *REVEALED!� Matthew 5:10-12 Jesus says, �Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of Heaven. 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!!" 2 Timothy 3:12: �In fact, **EVERYONE** who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted!� Romans 5:3: �But we **REJOICE IN OUR SUFFERINGS** because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope! Philippians 1:29: For it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ not only to believe on Him, but also to **SUFFER FOR HIM**! Philippians 3:10: �I want to know Christ and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of **SHARING IN HIS SUFFERINGS**! Revelation 12:11: �They overcame him {666} by the **BLOOD OF THE LAMB** {**CHURCH SAINTS**} and by the word of their testimony; for they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death!� Rev 2:10: Jesus says, �Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you the **CROWN OF LIFE**.� Revelation 13:4-10: Men worshipped the Dragon {Satan} because he had given authority to the Beast {666}, and they also worshipped the Beast {666} and asked, "Who is like the Beast {666}? Who can make war against him?" The Beast {666} was given a mouth to utter proud words and blasphemies and to exercise his authority for 42 {30-day} months {Or 1260 days or time {360 days} times {720 days and 1/2 a time {180 days} {See Daniel 7:25 and Daniel 12:1,2,7b} .... He was given power to make war against the saints and to conquer them. And He {666} was 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. 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 and faithfulness on the part of the saints!! Matthew 24:3,9-13; 29-31: The disciples asked Jesus, "What will be the sign of your Coming and the end of the age? and the end of the age?"... Jesus answered, "Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by **ALL NATIONS** because of Me. At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold but they who stands firm to the end will be saved... 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 lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near!"} Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. and then all the {Unsaved} peoples of the earth will mourn when the see the son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory. And He will send His angels with a loud {7th & Last} trumpet call, and the will gather His elect from the 4 winds, from one end of heavens to the other!" {Mark 13:27 adds "From the ends of the earth!"} It is interesting to note that a pre-trib rapture is never mentioned in the Olivet end-time prophecies in Matthew 24,25, Luke 21 and Mark 13 or in all of the end-time prophecies in Revelation!!

Posted : 15 Nov, 2017 03:35 PM 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. Matthew 19:28: Jesus said to His Apostles, "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** **JUDGING**!" In Revelation 4:4 Before the beginning of the Great Tribulation John saw exactly 24 thrones surrounding God's Throne in Heaven. The other 12 thrones were most likely given to 12 prominent OT Elders such as Abraham, Joseph, Isaiah, Jeremiah, David, Daniel, Moses, Elijah, Samuel, Joshua, Noah and Enoch. One of these 24 Elders speaks in Rev 7:13-17 and after the 7TH angel sounds the 7TH and Last Trumpet in Rev 11:15. Revelation 4:4: Surrounding the 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!These 24 Elders on 24 thrones surrounding the Thrones of the Father and Jesus; are mentioned **12 TIMES** in Revelation 4:4,10; 5:5,6,8,11,14; 7:11,13; 11:16-18; 14:3 and 19:4!! The **MARTYRS** who are **AWAKE* and are already reigning in Heaven are mentioned about **24 TIMES** in Revelation 6:9-11; 7:9,10,13-17; 8:3,4; 11:7-12; 12:11; 13:11,15; 14:1-5,13; 15:2-4; 16:6; 18:24 and 19:2! The **24 ELDERS** and the **MARTYRS are the **ONLY SAINTS** mentioned in heaven who are already **AWAKE** and **REIGNING** with Jesus in heaven during the 1260-day Great Tribulation in Revelation 4:4 to Revelation 19:4. If all of the millions of **CHURCH SAINTS** since AD 33 were raptured before the Great Tribulation began why are they not even mentioned **ONCE** in all the prophecies of the Great Tribulation in Revelation 4:4 to Revelation 19:4???? Revelation 13:4-10: Men worshipped the Dragon {Satan} because he had given authority to the Beast {666}, and they also worshipped the Beast {666} and asked, "Who is like the Beast {666}? Who can make war against him?" The Beast {666} was given a mouth to utter proud words and blasphemies and to exercise his authority for 42 {30-day} months {Or 1260 days or time {360 days} times {720 days and 1/2 a time {180 days} {See Daniel 7:25 and Daniel 12:1,2,7b} ....

Revelation 1:1-3: The Revelation from Jesus Christ which God gave Him to show His servants 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. Blesse is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it!! Jesus said to John, "Write, therefore, what you have seen, what is now {Rev 2 & 3} and what will take place later!" {The Rest of Revelation} Revelation 22:16,18,19: "I, Jesus, have sent My angel to give you this testimony for the churches.....I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this Book: If anyone **ADDS** anything to them {Like the pre-trib rapture}, 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 his share in the Tree of Life and in the Holy City {The **NEW JERUSALEM**}, which are described in this Book.!!"

View Profile History	"Though your sins are like scarlet they shall be as White as Snow!!" Posted : 18 Nov, 2017 05:52 PM Now the pre-tribbers believe that there are 3 resurrections for God's saints. The **FIRST RESURRECTION**is a secret silent rapture just before the Great Tribulation and will include all of the saints in the NT era including the **MARTYRS** and the **ELDERS**. This pre-trib resurrection contradicts 3 passages from God's word, such as 2 Thess 1:6-10, which state that the resurrection of he **CHURCH SAINTS** will take place on the **SAME DAY** as the resurrection of the unsaved!! This also contradicts Rev 20:4-6 which shows that only **MARTYRS** and the **24 ELDERS** will be resurrected on the **FIRST RESURRECTION**! This also contradicts 7 verses which state that all the **CHURCH SAINTS** are waiting for the **REVEALING** and **APPEARANCE** of our Lord Jesus Christ and not a secret silent rapture!! **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 **WHEN**the 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**} Titus 2:13,14: **WE** {**CHURCH SAINTS**} wait for the **BLESSED HOPE**--the glorious **APPEARING** of our **GREAT GOD** AND **SAVIOR**, Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for Himself a people that are **HIS VERY OWN**, eager to do what is good!! Colossians 3:4: When Christ, who is your life **APPEARS**, then **YOU** {**CHURCH SAINTS**} also will **APPEAR** with Him in glory.� I John 3:2,3: �When Jesus **APPEARS**, **WE** {**CHURCH SAINTS**} 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!!� The pre-tribbers **SECOND RESURRECTION** takes place on the Last Day of the Great Tribulation and will include all of the OT saints and all the **TRIBULATION MARTYRS**. However God's Word states that all of **TRIBULATION MARTYRS** are immediately **AWAKENED* and in heaven reigning with Christ **BEFORE** the Last Day. The pre-tribbers also believe that the Tribulation saints who are alive at this 3rd Coming of Jesus will not receive their new heavenly bodies but their **FLESH AND BLOOD BODIES** will then populate the earth in a 1,000 year **EARTHLY** millennium which will come just **AFTER** this 3rd coming of Jesus. I Corinthians 15:50-52: I declare to you brothers and sisters, **FLESH AND BLOOD** cannot inherit the Kingdom of God, nor does the **PERISHIBLE** inherit the imperishable. Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep {Since the **MARTYRS** and the 24 ELDERS ** are already **AWAKE**} but we will **ALL BE CHANGED--in a flash in the twinkling of an eye, at the Last {And 7th} trumpet!! Philipians 3:19-21: Their mind is on **EARTHLY** things. 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 they be **LIKE HIS GLORIOUS BODY**! During this 1,000 year **EARTHLY KINGDOM** Jesus Christ will supposedly rule with His saints with **FLESH AND BLOOD BODIES** in an **EARTHLY** temple shown in Ezekiel 40 to 48; in the **EARTHLY** city of Jerusalem. Even though Jesus put an **END** to all sacrifices and offerings for sin; we read about a Prince 17 times in Ezekiel 40-48 that will offer thousands of disgusting animal sacrifices and offerings for the sins of his people and **HIMSELF**??? Ezekiel 45:17,22,23: At all the appointed feasts of the house of Israel he will provide the **SIN** offerings grain offerings, burnt 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 od 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**???? **WHAT DOES GOD'S WORD SAY**?? Hebrews 10:22,26-28: The law requires that nearly everything be cleansed with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness... Christ has appeared once for all at the culmination of the ages to **DO AWAY WITH SIN** by the sacrifice of Himself. Just as people are destined to die once and after that to face judgment, so Christ was **SACRIFICED **ONCE** TO TAKE AWAY THE SINS OF MANY**; and He will **APPEAR** a **SECOND TIME** {Not a **THIRD TIME**}, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for Him!! Hebrews 10:5,8-10: When Christ came into the world, He said... "Sacrifices burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not desire, nor were you pleased with them!"-- though they were offered in accordance with the law. Then He said, "Here I am. I have come to do your will." He sets aside the first to establish the second {Covenant}. And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ **ONCE FOR ALL**!! 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 Pre-Tribbers} 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!" Post Reply

Jesus is called a **LAMB** 30 times in the book of Revelation and Revelation 13:11 states the False Prophet of 666 will be **LIKE A LAMB** which implies that he may be a well known **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, Nero Caesar, who will come up from the Abyss or Hell as per Rev 17:8!! {See Daniel 7:23-25} NOTE: **666** is called the **BEAST** 36 {6X6} times in Revelation and the False prophet is called **ANOTHER BEAST** one time in Revelation 13:11. Revelation 13:11-18: Then I saw another beast coming out of the earth. He had 2 horns **LIKE A LAMB**... He will exercise all the authority of the first beast on his behalf, and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast whose fatal wound had been healed {Nero Caesar was fatally wounded by the sword and yet will live again}... He will order them to set up an image in honor of the beast who was wounded by the sword and yet lived... He will be given power to give breath to the image {Statue} of the first beast, so that it could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image {On Worldwide TV?} to be killed. He will force everyone to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast {Nero Caesar?} or the number of his name. {666} This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is a man's number. The number is **666**! {The man Nero Caesar's name adds up to exactly **666** in Hebrew!} Revelation 14:9-11: The angel of the Lord will say, "If anyone worships the beast and his image and receives the 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 in the presence of the holy angels and of the **LAMB**. And the smoke of their torment rises **FOR EVER AND EVER**!!" **THE LATEST SATANIC UTTERANCE OF POPE FRANCIS WHO CERTAINLY QUALIFIES TO BE THE FUTURE FALSE PROPHET OF 666**: "Through humility, soul searching, and prayerful contemplation we have gained a new understanding of certain dogmas. The church no longer believes in a literal hell where people suffer. This doctrine is incompatible with the infinite love of God. God is not a judge but a friend and a lover of humanity. God seeks not to condemn but only to embrace. Like the fable of Adam and Eve, we see hell as a literary device. Hell is merely a metaphor for the isolated soul, which like all souls ultimately will be united in love with God."� Pope Francis declared."????? **LIKE POPE FRANCIS THE FALSE PROPHET OF 666 WILL SPREAD THE LIES THAT YOU CAN WORSHIP THE BEAST AND HIS STATUE AND RECEIVE THE MARK OF THE BEAST, AND STILL GO TO HEAVEN, AND THAT THERE WILL BE NO HELL**!! Pope Francis has also declared: �All religions are true, because they are true in the hearts of all those who believe in them. What other kind of truth is there? In the past, the church has been harsh on those it deemed morally wrong or sinful. Today, we no longer judge. Like a loving father, we never condemn our children. Our church is big enough for heterosexuals and homosexuals, for the pro-life and the pro-choice! For conservatives and liberals, even communists are welcome and have joined us. We all love and worship the same God.� Pope Francis has also declared: "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. 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. 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**!!

Posted : 28 Nov, 2017 02:01 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 **WHEN**the 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-Tibbers 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**!" 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 1:1; 2:1-3, 8: To the **CHURCH** of the Thessalonians... Concerning the **COMING*** of our Lord Jesus and **OUR** {CHURCH SAINTS} being gathered to Him.... 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**} It is interesting to note that the only **COMING** of the Lord Jesus when the **CHURCH SAINTS** are gathered to Him; mentioned in 2 Thessalonians 1:6-10 and 2:1 and 2:8; is 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! The Word of God clearly shows that the **CHURCH SAINTS** are waiting for the **APPEARING** and **REVEALING ** of our Lord Jesus Christ which completely contradicts the Pre-Trib theory that the **CHURCH SAINTS ** are all waiting for a **CONCEALED RAPTURE**??? Titus 2:13 **WE** {**CHURCH SAINTS**} 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** {**CHURCH SAINTS**} also will **APPEAR** with Him in glory.� I John 3:2,3: �When Jesus **APPEARS**, **WE** {**CHURCH SAINTS**} 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 24:29-31: 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! And He will send His angels with a **LOUD** {7th & Last} trumpet call and He will gather His **ELECT**!" I John 2:28: �Dear children, continue in Him, so that when He *APPEARS* **WE** {**CHURCH SAINTS**} 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* {**CHURCH SAINTS**} who have longed for His **APPEARING**!!� {See Matt 24:30 above!!} I Peter 5:4: �When the Chief Shepherd **APPEARS**, **YOU** {CHURCH SAINTS**} will receive the crown of glory that will never fade away!� Matthew 24:9-13; 29-31: 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. At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold but they who stands firm to the end will be saved... 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 lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near!"} Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. and then all the {Unsaved} peoples of the earth will mourn when the see the son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory. And He will send His angels with a loud {7th & Last} trumpet call, and the will gather His elect from the 4 winds, from one end of heavens to the other!" {Mark 13:27 adds "From the ends of the earth!"} It is interesting to note that pre-trib rapture is not even mentioned once in the Olivet Sermon on the End Times by Jesus in Matthew 24,25, Mark 13 and Luke 2!! The pre-trib rapture fairy tale is also not even mentioned once in the entire Revelation of Jesus Christ on the End-Times in Revelation chapters 6-19!! Post Reply
View Profile History	"Though your sins are like scarlet they shall be as White as Snow!!" Posted : 1 Dec, 2017 04:49 PM WHAT ARE THE 7 BIBLE CLUES WHICH REVEAL THE IDENTITY OF 666??? Revelation 13:17b,18: "The mark of the beast {Or antichrist} is the *NAME* of the Beast or the number of *HIS NAME*. This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, *LET HIM* calculate the number of the Beast {Even in AD 96 when Revelation was written}, for it is a man's number {Or "Number of a MAN"}. *HIS* number is *666*." God has promised in the above inspired passage that any saint {Even in AD 96--which implies that the name was known in AD 96} with spiritual wisdom and insight may calculate the name of the beast which is a *MAN'S NAME* and adds up to 666. During the last year of his rule Domitian Caesar decreed that everyone in the Roman Empire must worship idols of former Roman Caesar's or else they would be killed or put in prison. Historical documents show us that the Apostle John {Who then lived in Ephesus} lived to about AD 100 and therefore would have been alive during Domitian's evil decree of September AD 95 to September of AD 96. Since we can be sure that the Apostle John would never worship an idol of a Roman Caesar it is then highly probable that John was put in prison on Patmos Isle sometime during Domitian's evil decree from September AD 95 to September AD 96. In Thess 2:3 the Beast of the End-Times is called a "*MAN* of sin or lawlessness" or very SINFUL MAN and therefore the name of the Beast which adds up to 666 is a *MAN'S* name which is also confirmed in Rev 13:17b,18 above. Therefore, the NAME of the Beast which adds up to 666 is a sinful *MAN'S NAME* and could not be the name of a woman or a city, country, computer or Satan, etc.. 666 is also identified with a MASCULINE pronoun 28 times in God's Word which we will show later. Rev 13:16,17: "He {The False Prophet} forced everyone... to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead. No one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name {666}. 666 is called a "BEAST" 36 {6x6} times in Revelation. The BEAST is a much better name than the antichrist since anti-christ is mentioned 5 times in God's Word {I John 2:18{2X}, 22; 4:3; 2 John 1:7} and each time the word encompasses all who are against Christ. Such as I John 2:18: "Even now many anti-christs have come." 666 is referred to in the MASCULINE gender 28 times and the Beast is never referred to in the feminine or neuter gender. It is interesting to note that if the Beast of the end-times will be a religious organization, country or city it would be referred to in the female or neuter gender!!! The masculine pronouns used for the Beast are "HIS" 11 times: Rev 13:1, 5,16b,18b; 14:9,11; 17:7b; 19:2; 20:4(2X) & Daniel 7:26. "HE" 10 times: Rev 13:1;6a,7a,7; 17:8b; 17:11; 2 Thess 2:6; Daniel 7:24,25 & Daniel 9:27. "HIM" 5 times: Rev 13:4b; 19:20; 2 Thess 2:6; Daniel 7:25 & Daniel 9:27. "HIMSELF" 2 times in 2 Thess 2:4. Actually there are **7 BIBLE CLUES** that show who the BEAST of the future 1260-day Tribulation will be. By an amazing coincidence all 7 Bible clues can be applied to Nero Caesar!! {{1}} The BEAST will be a "MAN OF SIN" or very sinful MAN as per 2 Thess 2:3 above. {{2}} The number of this sinful man's name is 666 as per Rev 13:16-18. The Bible was written by 40 Divinely inspired Hebrews in Hebrew and Greek so then it is highly probable that this man's name adds up to 666 in Hebrew or Greek. Nero Caesar's name adds up to 666 in Hebrew which we will show later in this Bible study. {{3}} This sinful man whose name adds up to 666 DIED BEFORE AD 96 when Revelation was written.{See Rev 17:8 below} We will show later why Revelation was written between Sept AD 95 and Sept AD 96. Nero Caesar lived from December 15th, AD 37 to June 9th AD 68. {{4}} This sinful man who was alive and then died before AD 96 was FATALLY WOUNDED by a sword wound to his head. Nero Caesar committed suicide with a sword wound to his head on June 9th, AD 68. {See Rev 13:3 and Rev 13:14 below} {{5}} This very sinful man who died before AD 96 was a KING in the Roman Empire as per Daniel 7:24. There were 11 Roman Kings or Caesars who died before AD 96 including the 6th Caesar {Nero Caesar} who killed Paul and Peter in AD 66; and whose name adds up to 666 in Hebrew. Domitian Caesar was the 12th Roman Caesar who was alive when Revelation was written in AD 96. {{6}} The beast is also called an 8th KING who ruled before AD 96 as one of 7 evil KINGS crowned by the city on 7 hills. {See Rev 17:9-11} {{7}} This very sinful ROMAN KING whose name adds up to 666 and who was fatally wounded by a sword before AD 96, will "COME UP FROM THE *ABYSS* or *HELL* as per Rev 11:7 & Rev 17:8. We know that the ABYSS is HELL by comparing 2 Peter 2:4 with Luke 8:30b,31. We can be sure that Nero Caesar is now in the Abyss or Hell since he killed Paul and Peter and thousands of Christians and sent Vespasian {the father of Titus and Domitian Caesar} to kill the Jews and destroy their Temple. The MAN OF SIN or Nero also killed his own mother and killed his pregnant wife by kicking her in the stomach. Inscriptions have been found in Ephesus in which Nero is called "Almighty God" and "Savior". In Revelation 13:8a we learn that all the unsaved inhabitants of the world will worship the Beast. Nero and Caligula "abandoned all reserve" in promoting emperor worship - they were the only two Roman Caesars who demanded divine honors while still alive. Nero claimed to be the sun-god Apollo. In 2 Thess 2:4 we read that the "Man of Sin" will proclaim that he is God! Revelation 17:8: The beast, which you saw, once was {alive}, Now {in AD 96} is not {alive} and will come up out of the ABYSS and go to his destruction. The inhabitants of the earth whose names have not been written in the book life. ... will be astonished when they see the beast, because he once was {Alive before AD 96}, now {In AD 96} is not {Alive} and yet will come. Rev 13:14: He {The False Prophet} will order the inhabitants of the earth to set up an image in honor of the beast who was {FATALLY-Rev 13:3} wounded by the sword and yet lived." Rev 13:3: �One of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a fatal wound, but the fatal wound had been HEALED!! The whole world was astonished and followed the beast. � When I was a missionary in Israel I studied the Hebrew language. One of the first things that you learn when you study the OT Ancient Hebrew language {Which is also the language of Israel today!} is that the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet ALSO represent 22 numbers! When you read Psalm 119 you will note that the 176 sentences are divided into 22 sections; each section with 8 sentences or verses praising the Word of God. These 22 sections are each headed by one of the letters in the Hebrew alphabet in the exact same order as shown below. The ancient Hebrew language {Which is exactly the same as the modern Hebrew language} frequently used the letters of their alphabet to designate numbers in the OT as follows: ALEPH=1. BETH=2. GIMEL=3. DALET=4. HE=5. VAV=6. ZAYIN=7. CHETH=8. TETH=9. YODH=10. KAPH=20. LAMED=30. MEM=40. NUN=50. SAMEKH=60. AYIN=70. PE=80. TSADHE=90. KOPH=100. RESH=200. SHIN=300. TAV=400. NOTE: Most vowel sounds except "O" {VAV} are not used as letters in Hebrew. These vowel sounds are designated by dots and dashes under their *PRECEDING* consonants. In Hebrew "N" is added on the end of all foreign names ending in "O". Therefore, the foreign name of Nero would be "NERON" in Hebrew. The name Nero Caesar would be pronounced Neron Kaysar in Hebrew. The "E" in Neron and the 2 "A" sounds in Kaysar {There is no "C" in Hebrew} are designated by dots and dashes under their preceding consonants and therefore are not letters in the 22 letter Hebrew alphabet, and so have no numerical value. Neron in Hebrew would use 4 letters with numerical value: N-R-O-N and Kaysar in Hebrew would use 3 letters with numerical value: K-S-R. There would be a dot under the first N to show the "E" sound in NEron There would also be 2 dots under the "K" to show the "AY" sound in KAYsar and a dash under the "S" to show the "AH" sound in KaySAHr. The 4 letters with numerical value in NERON would be {SEE TABLE ABOVE} N = NUN = 50; R = RESH = 200; O = VAV = 6; and N = NUN = 50 and 50+20+6+50 equals 306. The 3 letters with numerical value in "KAYSAR would be K = KOPH = 100; S = SAMEKH = 60; and R = RESH =200 and 100+60+200 equals 360. And so the numerical value of Nero in Hebrew is 306 and the numerical value of Caesar in Hebrew is 360, and therefore the numerical value of Nero Caesar is 306+360 or exactly *666*! There is a very interesting footnote in the revised Standard Version concerning the number 666 which states that some ancient manuscripts have the number **616** which *DOUBLY* confirms that Nero Caesar may be the future Anti-Christ!! You will note that the Hebrew language adds an "N" to all foreign names ending in "O". Now "N" or "NUN" in Hebrew has a numerical value of **50**!! and so if you decided not to add the last "N" in NERON then Nero Caesar would add up to exactly *616* in Hebrew. This is an absolutely amazing coincidence! Any honest Hebrew language scholar will confirm that the letters of Nero Caesar's name add up to 666 in the Hebrew language whose 22 letters are also 22 numbers as shown above, and the Bible was written by 40 Jews. Since all of the prophecies concerning the antichrist are written in OT Hebrew {Like Daniel 7:8-25} or NT Koine Greek it would then seem logical that God would use one of these 2 Bible languages to identify the Name of the Beast whose letters add up to 666. One of the problems of doing this in NT Koine Greek is that the letters of their alphabet are not also numbers. And therefore you can only assign a numerical value of 22 to the 22nd letter, etc.. Using this formula you could not get any name to add up to over 250, let alone 666. You have the same problem with English & all other languages other than the Hebrew language! The 3 different Greek words used in Rev 13:18b to arrive at the number 666 are the 3 different Greek words for 600 and 60 and 6 and not 6 +6 + 6. And so the *6th Caesar {Julius, Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius & the *6th* was NERO} ordered the execution of Paul & Peter in AD *66*. NERO fulfilled *ALL 7 BIBLE CLUES as to the identity of *666 and will be the Beast who comes up from the Abyss {Or Hell-See Rev 11:7 & Rev 17:8} in the coming Great Tribulation!! Post Reply

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 2 minutes after midnight, May 14th, 1948!! The **70 YEAR** Anniversary of the rebirth of Israel will take place at 2 minutes after 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!" This Anointing and Coming of the Anointed One took place after 69 7's or 483 years and then the Anoited One **ATONED FOR WICKEDNESS** And put an end to all **SACRIFICES FOR SIN** 3 1/2 years later after 69 1/2 7's or 486 1/2 years! And then after the 3 1/2 year Great Tribulation the 2nd Coming of the Anointed One will bring in **EVERLASTING RIGHTEOUSNESS**!! 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 2 minutes after midnight on May 14th, AD 1948. It is interesting to note that **70 YEARS** after 2 minutes after midnight, May 14th, 1948 will be 2 minutes after midnight, on** 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 13th AD 33 to sundown, May 14th, AD 33!! And so 2 minutes after midnight on May 14th, AD 1948 is on **ASCENSION DAY** and **70 YEARS** later at 2 minutes after midnight on **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 13th to sundown, May 14th 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 2 minues after midnight on 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 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 13th to sundown May 14th 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 **70**TH 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 **7**th angel may sound the **7**th 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 2 minues after 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 2 minutes after midnight on**MAY 14TH, 2018** which is **7 X 7 +7** days of the Bible year; then it would end 1260 days later on 2 minutes after midnight on **OCTOBER 25TH, 2021** and the **LAST DAY** would be from 2 minutes after midnight on October 24th 2021 to 2 minutes ater midnight on 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 **7**th 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 which is also **7 X 7 + 7** days 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 also the exact same period of time! Post Reply

Posted : 3 Dec, 2017 03:33 PM **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, BUSSES, 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** with the help of radio, television and the internet; to even remote islands in the Pacific has just recently been **COMPLETED**!! **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 in Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21 are 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 of all the saved and lost in Matthew 25:31-46. 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 2 minutes after 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 Jews. **IS ISRAEL LIKE A **FIG TREE** IN GOD'S WORD**?? 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." Joel 1:11,12: The harvest of the field is destroyed. The vine is dried up and the **FIG TREE** is withered. {From AD 70 until May 14th, 1948 at the rebirth of Israel} Hosea 9:10: The Lord said, "When I found **ISRAEL** it was like finding grapes in the desert; when I saw your ancestors, it was like seeing the early fruit on a **FIG TREE**!" Naum 3:12: The Lord said to Israel, "All your fortresses are like **FIG TREES** with their first ripe fruit!" **JESUS SAYS, "THIS **GENERATION** WILL CERTAINLY NOT PASS AWAY UNTIL ALL THESE THINGS HAVE HAPPENED** Psalm 90:1,10: "Lord, you have been our dwelling place throughtout **ALL GENERATIONS**... the length of our days is **70 YEARS** or eighty if we have the strength!" 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** may begin **70 Years** after the rebirth of Israelt and will include **ALL THESE THINGS** in the Olivet prophecies found in Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21!} 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 **6,66*0,000** 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 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 yourt heart. I will be found by you," declares the Lord!" **ANOTHER INTERESTING PROPHECY** is the Jewish re-occupation of all of **JERUSALEM** which occurred on June 7, 1967 during the miraculous Six Day War. Midnight, **MAY 14TH, 2018** is **49 {**7X7**} YEARS** plus **707 DAYS** {**70+7**} after 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 SURROUNDING NATIONS REELING*. Judah will be besieged as well as Jerusalem, on that day, when all the nations of the earth are gathered against her!!" **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 days would take up 504 days leaving 3 days or 72 hours or **66+6 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 countries. Comparative totals after the UN sessions program tell the story: :Israel--78 condemning resolutions and decisions Syria--29; North Korea--9; ISIS--8 and Iran--6. As for Russia and China there is nothing at all {**ZERO**??}. 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**" Post Reply
