More On The 24 Elders Of Rev. 4

Q. Regarding the “24 elders” (Rev. 4:4, 11:16, etc.).  We understand that these 24 elders are “us” (the Church-age believers).   Do you believe that all believers are somehow “collectively embodied” within the 24 elders or are the 24 elders symbolic?  Or is it possible that we will all individually get a chance (when our “rotation” is called) to sit on one of the “24 thrones” much like the duties were rotated after the lots were cast for certain activities in the House of the LORD as described in 1 Chronicles chapters 24 & 25?

Angel Bodies?

Q. Thank you for your site.  It has become my every day delight!  In the New Jerusalem, we will be like the angels in heaven According to Mark 12:25.  That means our bodies will not be human-like but  angel -like.  If that’s the case, then why does Rev 22:2 mention the tree of  Life producing fruits each month. Is that fruit for the church-angels?  (Do angels eat?)  Also Rev 22:3(NIV) mentions that the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations.  What does that mean?

The Millennium Sabbath

Q. Do you believe there is significance to the Millennium-Sabbath Theory and do any reputable figures in history or current prophecy sites believe this?  I know it’s not what Peter was actually referring to when he said a day is like a thousand years, but the idea sure seems to hold credibility.

More On The Holy Spirit After The Rapture

Q. In your answer to a question about the Holy Spirit you said, “After we’re raptured, we’ll no longer need the Holy Spirit to be sealed within us, since the event His presence guaranteed will have taken place. During the 70th week the Holy Spirit, having been released from the Church, will resume a ministry on Earth similar to the one He performed in Old Testament times. ” This scares me.

Gathered In His Name

Q. Thank you again for your wonderful website.  I have been reading your teachings for over a year now, and telling everyone I know about you.  I hope I am not overstepping a line when I refer to you as my Bible teacher.  I am wondering how you interpret “gathered together in my name”?  When two or more Christians get together, is Jesus with them even if they only get together for lunch or something?  Or do they specifically have to come together to worship Him or pray for spiritual insight, for Jesus to be there?
