Sex In The Millennium

Q. While listening to Part 15 of the Book of Mark study, I thought I heard you say that “the Old Testament saints will be resurrected at Christ’s 2nd coming and repopulate the Millennium”. Maybe I heard wrong, but I thought once we get a perfected body that we won’t be having sex and procreating anymore? Did I just hear you wrong or is this only for Old Testament saints? If it is true, will the church get to enjoy sex in the Millennium with say our departed spouses and help to repopulate the earth?

El Dios De Fuera … Un Mensaje De Acción De Gracias

Un Mensaje De Acción De Gracias por Jack Kelley

Cantad alegres a Dios, habitantes de toda la tierra.  Servid a Jehová con alegría; Venid ante su presencia con regocijo.  Reconoced que Jehová es Dios; El nos hizo, y no nosotros a nosotros mismos; Pueblo suyo somos, y ovejas de su prado.  Entrad por sus puertas con acción de gracias, Por sus atrios con alabanza; Alabadle, bendecid su nombre.  Porque Jehová es bueno; para siempre es su misericordia, Y su verdad por todas las generaciones. (Salmo 100).

Should I Get A Divorce?

Q. I got married @17 in 1976. I committed adultery and left my husband 10 yrs later. Because he is catholic he won’t divorce me and  I can’t afford the cost because I live on a fixed amount of income.  I lived with boyfriends through out the separation, but 2 yrs ago I ended a live in relationship of 14 yrs because I gave my life to the Lord. We are friends as he understands my faith but it doesn’t mean he’s happy about it.  My only husband, is an alcoholic now and I think he has forgiven me. I did ask for his forgiveness and said we were just to young when we married. Neither of us have a desire to remarry. Is a divorce still necessary?

Is Commitment a Cause Or An Effect?

Q. I was bothered by an article I read about the rapture. It said,  “…by not committing your life to Jesus and by declining to follow Him, you have left Him with no choice but to leave you behind.” It seems like the author is saying that even if we ask Jesus to forgive us and believe on Him, if we don’t then commit our lives to Jesus, we will not be taken in the rapture. The author then goes on to say “The sin decontamination process is very simple – you simply ask Jesus Christ, the Son of God, for it. First, admit your sinful state. Next, ask Jesus to forgive you of your wrongdoings. Finally, make Jesus Christ Lord of your life by surrendering your will to Him.”

Why 1948 And Not 1967?

Q. Thanks for your honesty- you seem really sincere in your writing, and not a bit frustrated or tired of the same questions over and again.  That means a lot! Keep it up… I know that must be  a struggle.  However, I guess I do not really see how you conclude Mt. 24:34 to  mean a lifetime from 1948- why not 1967? I really appreciate you andyour ministry, it has been a huge blessing to me in my walk, and my own personal study.

Was Paul The Apostle To The Gentiles?

Q. I have been asked a question I can’t answer.  How and when did Paul know that he was the apostle to the Gentiles?  Of course, you’ll back it up with scripture references.

Why 1948 And Not The Abomination?

Q. You’ve said that the first specific sign Jesus gave to His disciples concerning His coming is in Matt. 24:15, the Abomination of Desolation.  Why then do you conclude that the first sign of the End of the Age was the re-birth of Israel, and base your 70 year count down on 1948?   Why wouldn’t it be 70 years from the A of D?

Left Without A Witness?

Q. I really appreciate your site and believe the Lord uses it to prepare His people  for His coming. My question is this: If Daniel’s seventieth week, or seven years for the Jewish people,  begins at the conclusion of Ezekiel’s war and the rapture occurs sometime before that, would that not leave the world without a witness in the interim?  This seems inconsistent with God’s modus operandi to remove His Spirit with the believers in the rapture before Israel is prepared by the miracles of deliverance in Ezekiel 38 and 39 to take over their place as His witness.

Resurrected Witness At The Rapture?

Q. In regards to 1 Thessalonians 4:16 –17, after the Lord descends with a shout, do you think the following scenario is possible?  First, the dead in Christ will be resurrected and will enter into the cities and be seen by many. They may begin witnessing to family and friends. Just like Jesus, Jonah and perhaps even the saints of Matthew 27: 52-53, they may lead many to salvation. They may remain on earth for minutes, or hours or even days. Then, all those in Christ Jesus (i.e., the resurrected elect and the living elect) will be taken up into the sky to be with the Lord.  Could this happen?

More On The Day And Hour

Q. Basically, I know the scriptures say no one “knows the day or hour” of Jesus’ second coming, to conquer the armies of the world and set up his kingdom. I have always thought that this only applies to those of us alive before Daniel’s 70th week starts. TODAY we don’t know, but those who are alive during Daniel’s 70th week, and understand the scriptures, only have to count the 2520 days to it’s end, and during the day immediately after it, they will see Jesus and his armies coming in the clouds with great glory.
