Have The Birth Pangs Begun?

Published: May 18, 2013
Q

Do the birth pangs described by Jesus in Matthew 24 include the seal and trumpet judgments, or are they intended to precede Daniel’s 70th week? To me, the birth pangs described by Jesus are general enough that they are not exclusive of the seal and trumpet judgments. If we truly are in the throes of labor and labor includes the seal and trumpet judgments, this is one labor for the record books.

Q

I’m going through your Revelation study and noticed this. In explaining Rev. 7:14 you say that “the great tribulation has not begun yet” but the Biblical text claims that that IS where the martyrs arriving in Heaven are from. Can you elaborate on your thoughts here?

Will Science Be The New God?

Published: May 14, 2013
Q

Is it possible that the one-world religion will not be Islam, but instead be atheism, or maybe more accurately, “scientism”? It seems that the ranks of believers in this world are shrinking exponentially. The global rise of atheistic China and modernizing India also lends credence to the possibility of mankind worshiping self-produced technology over any supernatural being. It’s a New Age idolatry.


Immorality In The Fellowship

Q

It Looks like the Church at Corinth had about as many problems as we do today. What exactly does it mean to deliver someone to Satan for the destruction of the flesh that the spirit might be saved? Is this the same guy in 2 Corinthians Paul is telling them to forgive?


Saved After The Rapture

Published: May 10, 2013
Q

A friend of mine quotes John 3:18 to support her belief that people who refuse to accept Christ as Lord and Savior before the Rapture will not be allowed to change their minds and accept Him after the Rapture. She says the only ones saved during the Tribulation will be those who have not previously heard the gospel. I always thought that those who are left behind, who know about salvation although never accepting it, will know what had happened and will accept Christ at that time. What do you think?

In response to my question about Daniel 2 a pastor told me that Daniel 2:44 was fulfilled when the Church was born on Pentecost and set in motion the defeat of the Roman Empire. Is this correct?
