Locusts are known for harming plant life, not humans, this is pointed out to us by, words of accommodation, the command, do not harm the (CHORTOS) i.e. vegetation to show that these are a special kind of locusts that afflict only those that don't have the seal of God on their foreheads.

2706 | The Rapture in Revelation | Revelation | CDBJ | 18834 | ||
Yoshua, I am pre-wrath in my position when it comes to the time, when the dead in Christ will rise and the living believers will be changed. I think that the period of time called tribulation, starts with the Abomination of Desolation Matt. 24:15 and is also spoken of by Paul in II Thess. 2:3,4. The period of time that starts Daniel's 70th week, and runs for three and one half years before this, is merely the beginning of birth pangs. The last half of Jacob's trouble starts with the devil being cast down to the Earth, Rev. 12:12, thus showing that the tribulation spoken of by Christ is from the wrath of Satan not God. Christ went on to say that those that endure till the end of the tribulation, will be delivered. I.e. the rapture. Note that Daniel's 70th week must continue on for it's full term though. Thus, we, the believers will come out of the great tribulation by Christ cutting the great tribulation short, for the elect's sake: this He will do by the rapture. Look at Rev. 7:9-17 Right after all this takes place, God starts to pours out His wrath, Rev. 8:--------- Notice, rapture before wrath; thus the pre-wrath position. CDBJ | ||||||
2707 | The Rapture in Revelation | Revelation | CDBJ | 18860 | ||
#1 The prophecy in Daniel of the 70 weeks is for Israel only: But the time of the tribulation for the elect is running concurrent with it and both events are triggered by the same action. That is when Israel makes a seven year covenant, with the unbeknown to them, antichrist. #2 The 70th week of Daniel, if that is the part you mean, won't start until Israel makes the firm covenant with the one, antichrist, who makes desolate. After three and one half years, his true nature will be revealed as the son of destruction, (also, II Thess.2: 3-9) at this point Israel will realize that they made a covenant with death and she will fly into the wilderness to her place of safety from the presence of the serpent. Rev. 12:13-17 The dragon then through frustration, because he can't get at Israel will turn on the elect, the church, thus the great tribulation that Jesus warned us would happen in the last days. Being a believer in Christ at that time will not be a popular thing! Forget about the glowing testimonies, unless you want to loose you head. Thus we have the apostasy that Paul spoke of. There won't be many, so called lukewarm believers around. There will be people turning on their own relations just as the Scripture says will happen. #3 I think that the temple will be rebuilt and the Jews will start to sacrifice, the same way that they did in the Old Testament. I just heard on the radio the other day, that after some two thousand years, that the Jews have redeveloped the red heifer, I wonder why? I hope this answers your question, this is about the best I can do when I am to tired to tkink. CDBJ |

I read the Left Behind Series and they are giving a false hope to a lot of people that might not be believers at time of Christ return. They take text out of context to breed a hope that isn't going to be there after Christ returns for the Church. Those that are left behind after the rapture will have the same chance that the unbelievers had after the door of the ark was closed behind Noah. The same is true for those left behind after Lot left Sodom. As soon as Jesus takes up the believers from the Earth He is going to pour out His wrath on those that remain! Check out a few well known verses. 2 Thes. 1:6-10 God is just: He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you 7and 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. 8He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. 9They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the majesty of his power 10on the day he comes to be glorified in his holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed. This includes you, because you believed our testimony to you. Reread this and notice the timing of when the Lord will do this in verse ten; this is the rapture. Those left behind are in verses eight and nine. It all happens on the same day. There isn't going to be any sneaking out of God's elect. This will be the most glorious day in the history of the world and every eye will see Him the lord of Glory. Rev. 1:7 Look, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him; and all the peoples of the earth will mourn because of him. So shall it be! Amen. He will come like a thief to those that aren't believers, but to the believers, He won't surprise them like a thief. 1 Thes. 5:1-5 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. 2For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 3For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. 4But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. 5Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. Paul speaks of two groups those in verse 1,2,4,5, are believers. The second group are in verse 3 which are they, the unbelievers. They shall not escape after left behind! I would like to suggest if you want a true understanding of what will happen in the end times, that you pick up a copy of a book by Robert Van Kampen called, THE SIGN. It is the best that I have ever read on eschatology and believe me I have read many. It is a real eye opener for those that want a clear picture. CDBJ |

The sneaking out or away of God's elect is the thought behind the whole concept of the left behind viewpoint. It is their unbiblical viewpoint of what it will be like after the rapture takes place. All those that are left behind are supposed to wonder where the believers went. It more or less gives them another chance to accept Jesus. The adversary would love to spread that message around. The truth is they won't have a chance after the rapture takes place! When the Lord comes for his own, as soon as we are out of here, God is going to clobber the unbelievers with fire, all on the same day as the rapture. 2 Thes. 1:9-10 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; 10When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day. |

2711 | Are all at the white throne judg. lost? | Revelation | CDBJ | 35298 | ||
Revelation 20:11 speaks of the great white throne and the assumption is that all that are judged at this judgment will be the lost. If that is the case why is verse 15 of chapter 20 even recorded? Rev. 20:11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. Rev. 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. |

2712 | Are all at the white throne judg. lost? | Revelation | CDBJ | 35524 | ||
Wouldn't that violate the law of double jeopardy since Jesus has already been judged in my place for my sins and even took the punishment that I deserved? What kind of justification is that if I have to be at the great white throne judgment? By the way, who is sitting on that throne that is going to judge me as you say? |
||||||
2713 | Are all at the white throne judg. lost? | Revelation | CDBJ | 35982 | ||
Are you saying that because the law of double jeopardy isn't spilled out in the Bible that it isn't implied? If that is the case, and if you believe it, maybe God will change his mind and judge you for your sins after all, I hope not. The FACT that Jesus Christ paid for the sins of the world implies a judgment call from God on behalf of the human race. As for believers being at the white throne judgment as you claim, all believers are passed from death unto life. John 5:24 "Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life. All those at this judgment, according to John, are of the dead. The basis for the indictment at the white throne isn't sin, as so many assume, but works. The word sin isn't even mentioned in the verses in question. Rev. 20:12-13 And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. 13The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works. There are literally hundreds of thousands of people that assume that because they have lived a pretty good life, according to their standard, that they should be entitled to heaven. This is where they will find out just how good they really are compared to Jesus and what God looks at as the standard for eternal life. Two categories of books were open, one for the living and one for the dead. It is interesting to note that it took more then one book for the dead to be judged, it doesn't say how many but it was more then one. There are a lot of good religious people in this group that didn't truly trust in the finished work of God's Christ, Jesus, emphasis on small and great. Matthew 7:13-14 "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. 14Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it. All of the believers are in one book, the book of life, but those at this judgment were judged according to their works out of the books. In effect they are stacking up all of their good works and deeds against the work that Jesus Christ performed on the cross and they are found wanting or on the light side of the scales of justice. One of the interesting things that I noticed is that they are standing before God. The Bible doesn't say at this point but I would say that not long after this they all hit their knees. As for the judgment for believers the Bible say that we will appear at the judgment seat of Christ. 2 Cor. 5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad. The we in the verse is a ref. to believers and again the issue isn't sin by works, Jesus has already paid for our sins, that is not to say that we won't be dealt if we sin but the reprimand is handed out on this side of the grave. Hebrews 12:6 For whom the LORD loves He chastens, And scourges every son whom He receives." I don't know about you but I have been to the woodshed several times!! As for the last part of your question, do I fear God, you better believe I do, but he is my dad now and it is a different kind of fear; he will do what is best for me. I am not scared of Him because he is my Savior and protector now. |

2714 | Empty Justification? | Revelation | CDBJ | 36051 | ||
Hi Charis, I think that you are starting to sense the same thing that I did, that's why I quit. There are many who will not listen to sound doctrine, even if numerous amounts of Scripture run counter to what they believe or have been taught. Some things can become so entrenched in a person's mind that nothing short of a miracle can dislodge it. Maybe that is why the Bible calls it being noble when a person has an open mind then proves everything out with Scripture! Acts 17:11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. Some times one feels like they are beating their head on a brick wall when the truth is so obvious and people can't see it; I guess that is why it's called a forum. Yours in Christ, CDBJ |

Dear Ttomabs, the word beast or beasts is used in the book of Revelation 59 times and it is impossible to know which particular beast that you want to know about with out your telling us the chapter and verse! This is a Bible forum, so if you want answers that are biblically accurate please inform us of the verse that is in question or someone might just tell you that the beast is a computer.

2718 | Can you lose your salvation? | Revelation | CDBJ | 45533 | ||
Hi Hank, something just dawned on me; maybe those that say that they can lose their salvation really can, because they aren't trusting the same object that we are, therefore the Lord hasn't given them the assurance that we have! CDBJ | ||||||
2719 | Can you lose your salvation? | Revelation | CDBJ | 45660 | ||
My sentiments exactly, I didn't do anything to get it, so how can I do anything to lose it; and besides all that God the Father has given me to his Son, I belong to him and I am sure that he is able to keep track of and keep something that belongs to him. John 6:39 (KJV) And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. Brother, that's you and me! I have had pets that have wondered off on their own and I didn't know how to find them, but the way I see it, God doesn't have this trait, of not having control of his things to the point that he loses them. CDBJ |

2720 | What's sky rolling up like scroll mean? | Revelation | CDBJ | 65615 | ||
Greetings Chusarcik, I think that the answer to your question, Revelation 6:14 says "The sky receeded like a scroll rolling up...", is found in the verses before and after Rev. 6:14. It would appear that there is a supernatural darkness around the earth that came about as a result of Rev. 6:12-13 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; [13] And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. The word earthquake could also be translated super volcano, which we know puts out a huge amount of ash that could cause the condition mentioned. In order for verses 15 through 17 to take place God will perform something spectacular so that all will be looking up when He returns. All of the obstruction that has been blocking out the light from the sun moon and stars will be removed suddenly and low and behold there will be the Almighty sitting on His throne. There will no doubt in any ones mind what is going to happen next because that is expressed in Rev. 6:16-17 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: [17] For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? Rev. 1:7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. |
