In your August 11th post regarding “Why will the nations need healing” you stated that the leaves of the tree of life will be needed by the people on Earth who will still suffer from disease and death. With New Jerusalem orbiting above the earth, do you think there will be a lot of resentment from the people of Earth that they are still suffering and the people of New Jerusalem are not. If so, could this resentment be manifested with sinful words and deeds?

I’m hearing “Christ Follower” rather than “Christian” more often these days, especially on Christian radio and in blogs. Aren’t all Christians Christ Followers?

Re: There is No Seven Year tribulation. If it isn’t a 7 year “tribulation”, what does Daniel’s “70th Week” entail? And will we, the believers, be raptured before the 70th week or will we possibly be here through the first 3 1/2 years of Daniel’s 70th week?

I am confused on what the Church will be doing during the actual tribulation. If we are raptured directly into the New Jerusalem, will we be cognizant of the horrors that are happening on earth? Will we be able to see any friends/loved ones left behind and their struggles? And, at the end of the 1000 year reign, where is the church during the final battle?

I heard a teaching on a TV show called “It Is Written.” The speaker claimed that hell has an end. That at the 2nd death, hell will be burned up, and all that are in it will cease to exist. Is the 2nd death after the Great White Throne Judgment, at the end of the Millennium? Will hell cease to exist at that time, with those in it destined to non-existence?

Reading 1Thessalonians 5:3, speaking about “peace and safety, then sudden destruction will come upon them”…etc.It gives me the impression that this could take place between the period of the rapture and the treaty being signed. Can this be the case? I can imagine the world being in chaos and rampant violence every where, or is this scripture only related to Israel?

Re: The Wars Of The 2nd Seal Judgment. Are you saying the anti-christ resolves the Ezek. war? Please explain.

Please clarify your statement that ‘at the beginning of the Millennium the unbelievers would be removed from the earth’ – can you give the scripture for that? As I understand it, the believers, who have been raptured previous to those thousand years, will return at the beginning of them with Christ to rule and get rid of the evil. Where am I going wrong?

Are there any observable earthly signs associated with each of the Seals as Christ opens them? If we are still here, for example, will one be able to say, “Oops!! There went Seal Number 3.” Also when, among the six Seals, do you believe the Rapture will occur?

In Rom. 11:26-27, God tells us that “all Israel shall be saved.” Does that mean that all Jews still alive at the end of the Great Tribulation will be believers? Or, said in another way, does it mean that all non-believing Jews will have died?
