1761 | REV 11 The Temple stands yet destroyed | Rev 1:11 | stjohn | 204560 | ||
Dear Tam: In 167 B.C. Antiochus IV Epiphanes, attacked Jerusalem and put down the Maccabean Revolt. Consequently, He then took over the temple, and Josephus historian says, "that he (Antiochus) forbad the daily sacrifices to be offered, which were used to be offered to God, according to the law: and they shall place the abomination that maketh desolate; either a garrison of Heathen soldiers in the temple, which drove the priests and people from it, and made it desolate; or rather an idol in it, it being usual in Scripture to call idols abominations, as they are to God and all good men; the image of Jupiter Olympius, as is thought, which was placed upon the altar of God by Antiochus, on the fifteenth day of the month Cisieu, in the hundred and forty fifth year of the Seleucidae, and is called the abomination of desolations, in the Apocrypha:" This appears to be an historical event, and there is little doubt that it actually accred, but there are those that espouse that though this has happened in history that it will happen again at the end of the time of trial, mid tribulation: Inferring that it is a double prophesy. Just some added info, don't know if you are aware of this or not, but thought you would find it interesting. God bless John |

R.C....Your post is very presumptuous. You have NO idea what my views on the timeframe Revelation are! Yet you accuse me of many things! What I do know though, from reading it, is that John is being given a vision, so he does NOT measure a literal temple: too, he was on the isle of Patmos, nowhere near Jerusalem, which coincides with the fact, that it was a vision. I know I know there is much more to it. Your theory may have some merit, but it leaks! That is just one example of your many erroneous assumptions, I also think you may have a convoluted view of history. If you were not so grounded in your presuppositions perhaps you would check further, and you might find that there were dispensational views being taught many centuries before the 19th century. I am not a dispensationalist, by the way. And I don't have a denomination, but if I had to chose, I'd have to say, I'm a Baptist. And you have a good day too, R.C.! By the way R.C. If you need the last word you may have it, but I have much better things to do then argue about eschatology. Gal 6:14 Just my two cents. Shalom and God bless John |

Tamara: The Lord has indeed blessed you with a very inquisitive mind! That a good thing, but do please be careful my dear friend. I don't like to see my Brethren slip! :-) Try this, think about that some believe that the prophesy in Daniel is not refering to revelation ay all but the fall of jerusalem in 70 A.D. as is much of what we read in Jesus' answer to his disciples Matthew is about. "As He was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, "Tell us, when will these things happen, and what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?" Matt 24:3 Some say that this is a two part question, so all of what He revails to them is not about the same event, nor is it about the same timefraime. They ask "when will thease things happen" Well what things was he just talking about? He had just told them about the distruction of the temple, which happens in 70 A.D.. And then they ask: "and what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?" And he tells them the answer to both questions, but its hard to ditermin where the break is. But I think it's there, I haven't studied that extensivley though. Shalom and God bless John |

Hear is an answer: you say it is bad writing to speak laterally and then and something spiritual, well my friend that is exactly what you are doing by saying that the destruction of israel and His second coming has both happened, because you say that the destruction was literal but His Coming was spiritual: That my friend is pious nonsense! | ||||||

Hi Hoppy: Just like all of the Bible, I, and thee, my friend. I believe, every letter, in, The Revelation of Jesus Christ, is addressed to, all the Churches, of all the word; Especially to those people, who sit, day after day, year after year, in those Churches: And they sit on their blessed assurance, and do nothing! They never change, they just agree, and nod their heads, and do, nothing. They never really make a decision for Christ, because they think they have it all, they think they are rich, they never realize, that they are, "wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked." They never realize, that the heart of man has nothing in it that is, pleasing to God. Very sad. 'He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.' Rev 2:29 Note: The word Churches? Is plural.... Shalom and God bless John |

Apparently, you have some kind of bone to pic, or axe to grind with this forum. I believe you have made your point. So would you now like to participate in Bible study, or do you intend to keep chastising us? | ||||||

Hi Hoppy: Brother, I’ve been thinking about your response to my post, in which I made an assertion that, that particular part of. Rev, Was a call to salvation. Well, Brother, I believe after reflecting on this for some time, that my answer to you was rather flip, and I’d like to apologize. So, Hoppy, I’m sorry for that, and I’d like to start over if I may. You see I believe that there are many indeed that are sitting in Churches, that are not really saved, and that this was as true in that day as much as it is today. So, though, it may not be an area of Scripture that one would use to evangelize the general public, out in the world. And, I agree with you my friend, in that sense. I do believe, however, that it could, and in some cases, should be used to evangelize those that are in Churches, and only THINK they are saved. Do you see what our Lord is saying here, in Rev 3:17 --'Because you say, "I am rich, and have become wealthy, and have need of nothing," and you do not know that you are wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked,"-- Can you see that He is saying that they only think that they are rich and that they only think that they have no need? And that they are poor and not rich, that they are naked before God and not clothed in righteousness, that they, though they think they see, they are blind? And the next verse: Rev 3:18 --"I advise you to buy from Me gold refined by fire so that you may become rich, and white garments so that you may clothe yourself, and that the shame of your nakedness will not be revealed; and eye salve to anoint your eyes so that you may see."-- Oh my, my friend, this is indeed a call to salvation, the salvation of the ones that are in many ways in more dire need than the poor sinner lost in the world, for they no that they are sinners. But the poor man that sits Sunday after Sunday, on his blessed assurance, and thinks he is really something, thinking that he is righteous. And he just sits there and nods his head, but the message that we are sinners saved by grace, and that we are not righteous but only that, that the blood of Christ only imparts righteousness to us. Though our sins are as scarlet, He has made then as wool, as white as snow, by the way, and by the blood of the one and the only one that is indeed righteous. The one that is calling those who are neither cold nor hot, the ones that only THINK they are saved.... Jesus Christ is standing at the door of their hearts and He is knocking, if only they would see truth of the condition of their hearts, and open it. Sure thing, and I agree, much of this chapter is a call to renewing of fellowship with Him, but it is also a call those who are not saved. --"He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.'' --Rev 3:22 Amazed by His wonderful grace, and eternal mercy, John |

"You will bear me witness, my friends, that it is exceedingly seldom I ever intrude into the mysteries of the future with regard to the second advent, the millennial reign, or the first and second resurrection. As often as we come across it in our expositions we do not turn aside from the point, but if guilty at all on this point, it is rather in being too silent than saying too much." --Charles Spurgeon | ||||||
1779 | The better side of what? | Rev 6:11 | stjohn | 188651 | ||
Dear M.Royal; What you have said here is true, but, your assuming that all that are God's are the Church. Where does it say that? Answer) It doesn't. There will be people saved after the Church age, just as there are old testament saints, that are not the Church, that where saved before the Church age. Please, perhaps you could ask your questions without the facetious overtones, that way I would be able to answer them more easily, as I assumed from your question that you where implying, that the martyrs would suffer the wrath. Thank You. God bless. John |

1780 | The better side of what? | Rev 6:11 | stjohn | 188684 | ||
Dear sir; I guess you are finally showing your colors. I wondered if you really had questions, or you just wanted to manipulate the forum to your way of thinking. It is clear to me now., and I am finished with this conversation. I do not appreciate deceptiveness, nor do any of the good people hear at the forum. I will thank you very much to stop pestering me, and others, and trying to push your view. You are fussing over details that have nothing to do with salvation or spreading the gospel of salvation. God bless. John |
