4061 | BEST COMMENTARY ON REVELATION? | Revelation | kalos | 1222 | ||
Thanks for your good answer. To understand that there are indeed four main approaches to the interpretation of the book of Revelation is fundamental to any study of this book. I.e., not only are there different explanations of the prophecies, but also note that not everyone considers Revelation a book of prophecy. As you so accurately point out, some take a historical and others an allegorical approach to Revelation. | ||||||

This sounds like a good recommendation. I will look at it at the Christian bookstore. Thanks for your reply. --JVH0212 | ||||||

Dear Bill Kluga: I agree with your answer, not necessarily saying it is the ONLY answer to satisfy the original question, but that in itself it is a good, sound, reasonable, intelligent answer. . . . I couldn't agree more re the Scofield Reference Bible. I've been blessed by using the New Scofield Reference Bible (NSRB) for approximately 30 years. Although more scholarly than popular in its writing style, I would recommend the Scofield Bible to people at all levels of maturity -- from those who were born-again yesterday to those who have been reading and studying the Bible for 50 years. . . . Also, the BEST commentary on Revelation may well be the Book of Daniel, especially in the Amplified Bible. (See also the Book of Revelation in the Ampflified Bible.) After all, Scripture is its own best interpreter and the BEST commentary is a good translation. |

Having read all three authors, I can tell you McGee will be the best of the three and Van Impe will be the most sensational and entertaining. | ||||||

I fully concur with EdB's short list of authors recommended for their reliability and trustworthiness. Following is a list of authors who, in my opinion, are doctrinally sound, reliable, and trustworthy in their teachings and writings. They are rooted firmly in the Bible and in the mainstream of the historic Christian faith. They are: . . . 1) The Christian Research Institute; 2)David Jeremiah; 3) D. James Kennedy; 4) John MacArthur; 5) Josh McDowell; 6) Charles Caldwell Ryrie; 7) Adrian Rogers; 8) R.C. Sproul; 9) Charles Stanley; 10) Chuck Swindoll. . . . (Disclaimer: Infallibility is claimed neither for or by any man on this list. No man is infallible. No translation of the Bible is infallible. Only the Bible itself IN THE ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPTS is both without error and incapable of error. Also, I do not claim this to be an exhaustive list of every reliable author in the history of the church. These names are merely among today's best known and most trusted teachers and writers. If I left out your favorite, I apologize. I am only speaking for myself, and no one else.) |

4067 | WHY DOSE IT HAVE TO BE MOSSES AND ELIJAH | Revelation | kalos | 1782 | ||
Heb 9:27 (ASV) And inasmuch as it is appointed unto men once to die, and after this [cometh] judgment; . . . No disrespect to either you or your answer is intended. I fully agree that we ought not to be dogmatic about the answer to this question. Your answer has merit and should not be dismissed lightly. However, it would seem that the Scripture cited to predict Enoch as the second witness instead of Moses is far outweighed by the number of similarities between Moses and the two witnesses. What did Enoch ever do besides the fact that "God took him"? What did he ever do relevant to Christ's Second coming? I feel the fact that Enoch was taken by God before death is a weak argument indeed. . . . If one means to interpret Heb 9:27, as many honest and sincere folks do, to mean that every individual must die once and only once, this is easily refuted by our general knowledge of the Bible together with common sense. . . . In his Study Bible, John MacArthur comments on Heb 9:27: "to die once. This is a general rule for all mankind. There have been very rare EXCEPTIONS (emphasis mine) (e.g., Lazarus and the multitude who were resuscitated at Christ's resurrection died twice; compare John 11; Matt 27). ... Another exception will be those who don't die even once, but who will be 'caught up...to meet the Lord in the air' " (1 Thess 4:17) Thanks for your participation. I want to emphasize that I am NOT being dogmatic. I do not insist that the two witnesses will be Moses and Elijah. Any human who says he knows the answer with certainty is in error. |

I must admit that when I asked what Enoch ever did with respect to the Second Coming, I was in error. Thank you so much for pointing out what it says in Jude 14. Citing the reference in Jude tells me you are quick and sharp. My hat goes off to you. Again, thanks for your reply, without which I would still be in the dark about Enoch. God bless. --JVH0212 | ||||||

You write: "Now...you tell the person who comes to you broken, seeking redemption and forgiveness from God that they are going to hell anyway." I do? It's news to me. As far as the rest of your reply, I admit I allowed myself to be provoked. And I was too harsh in my reply to you. Certainly you are entitled to your own understanding of Bible doctrine. I apologize for offending you. I do not offer this as an excuse, but it's just that some on this website (not saying you) have made such vicious attacks on the Bible doctrine of election and those who believe in it, that I'm a little shell shocked and tend to over-react. Again that does not excuse the tone I took with you. I was in the wrong and I admit it. |

How astute of you to notice that Gen 6:3 does not refer to the Tribulation hour. But I never said that, did I? I was responding to the question: "Could this be where the belief came from that there will be a time when God's heart is hardened?" | ||||||

Waldo: With all respect, I, too, along with Tim, agree with your assesment that caution must be used when interpreting prophetic passages. Also, along with Tim, I disagree with the idea that there isn't any chronology in books like Revelation. A careful study will show that a *sequence* of events is definitely presented both in Matthew 24:3-31 and in the book of Revelation. "2. The Olivet Discourse "It was the Lord, Jesus Christ, who taught about the sign of His second coming on the Mount of Olives during the final week of His life on earth. What He said ought to parallel what the Scripture teaches in other places, since Christ is the author of the visions of Daniel (cf. Dan. 10:5-6; compare with Rev. 1:13-16), the instruction in the Olivet Discourse (Matt. 24:1:1ff) and the book of Revelation (cf. Rev. 1:1ff). When the *sequence* in Matthew 24:3-31 is examined, it will be found to parallel what Paul taught in I Thessalonians 4-5 and II Thessalonians, particularly chapters one and two, and what we read in Revelation. "4. The Book of Revelation "If Daniel gives us the time frame for the end times and the Olivet Discourse gives us a thumbnail sketch of the *sequence* of the end times, then Revelation gives us the details" (emphasis added) (http://www.signministries.org/faqs/faq018_wheretobegin.htm). Waldo, I do appreciate your input regarding this topic. Grace to you. |

Ed: Having read the entire Left Behind Series and the Bible, I have to agree with you. For an introduction to why the Left Behind books and film are dangerously off in their theology, go to the following website: www.signministries.org/articles/topic28_leftbehindreview.htm While it is true that not every last second of the film is exactly like the book, there is little difference in the sequence of events -- or the doctrinal errors -- found in both the book and the film. I quote the first paragraph of the following article: LEFT BEHIND: A Review of the Latest End Times Film by Dirk Eichhorst "It is troubling that Hollywood often produces films that are blatantly anti-Christian. Even more troubling is when Christians with good intentions produce a film that tries to tell the truth, but is dangerously off in its theology. LEFT BEHIND is the latest film that tackles eschatology (the study of end times), and claims to be biblical. Yet the film misinterprets and misapplies significant portions of prophetic Scripture. Can this kind of misleading teaching in a film potentially do more harm than a blatantly anti-Christian message?" (www.signministries.org/articles/topic28_leftbehindreview.htm) kalos |

danieln: I wasn't aware that in my post I had said or implied that the SDA view is "wrong." What I said was, "Their interpretation of Bible prophecy/eschatology is SLIGHTLY different than that of mainstream Evangelicals." The only other thing I did was to point out that one of your resources is the publishing company of the SDAs. You write: "Jesus had quite a different view to mainstream Jewish belief in his time. Luthers 'salvation by faith' concept wasnt the most popular idea when he rediscovered it either" This is true, but I would remind you: We mainstream Evangelicals are neither Pharisees nor Roman Catholics. So I don't really see the relevance of your point. I have nothing against you, no personal axe to grind, no objection to your stating your views. In fact, you are to be commended for including a bibliography with your views. All who participate in the Forum are equally welcome here, as long as they follow the guidelines established by the Lockman Foundation. I am not offended by anything you've posted and I only hope that I have not offended you. In all sincerity, I welcome you to the Forum. Grace to you, kalos |

Can you provide us with solid Scriptural EVIDENCE that the two witnesses are the OT and NT? Anyone can assert anything. But what is the Scriptural evidence on which you base your belief? |

4078 | The beast with seven heads | Revelation | kalos | 152322 | ||
[9] (This requires a mind that has wisdom.) The seven heads are seven mountains the woman sits on. They are also seven kings: [12] The ten horns that you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but will receive ruling authority as kings with the beast for one hour. Revelation 17:9,12 The NET Bible (www.bible.org/netbible/rev17.htm) For further information on the seven heads and ten horns, see notes on Rev. 17:9,12 at: www.revelationcommentary.org/17_chapter.html |

To DAN HOLMES you write: "Please give the answer." This is not going to happen. The user DAN HOLMES has not posted to the Forum in more than 4 years. His last post was on 05-11-01. Moreover when he asked the question he wasn't testing us. I.e., he did not have the answer. The reason he asked is that he really wanted to know. Grace to you, J. Holmes |

Who has written the best commentary on the book of Revelation? I don't know. But there is a commentary on Revelation that I recommend. You can read it online at: www.revelationcommentary.org From the INTRODUCTION: "We offer no defense of our belief that the recipient of the Revelation was John the Apostle; that the date of writing falls near AD 96; that the Revelation has epistolary, prophetic, and apocalyptic features, which must influence its interpretation; and that the book is progressive in nature with parenthetical details added for clarification. Where necessary we will comment on the structure of the book to understand the meaning of the text..." Grace to you, Kalos |
