In a previous letter someone wrote: “Have you calculated what 7 year period has 2550 days in it where there is the month of Adar in the 2nd half? I have heard time and time again by Hebrew scholars that 2014 fits the bill. Also, a neighbor was told by an ex ambassador to Israel to watch for 2014.” Why the month of Adar is significant and what kind of bill 2014 fits? (I don’t understand what this person is talking about.)

I have a question re: what Jesus said in Matt. 24:36 & 42-44 versus Rev. 3:3. I understand from your series “The Last 8 Days” that in Matthew, Jesus is talking about His 2nd Coming. The terminology in Rev. 3:3 with the mention of Jesus coming upon the church in Sardis as a “thief in the night” if they “don’t wake up”. My question is in your opinion is Jesus referring to the Rapture in Rev. 3:3? Your insight is always appreciated and may God continue blessing you with your gift of knowledge of His Word. I thank Him for guiding me to you.

In your “Times of the Gentiles and Fullness of the Gentiles” piece, you stated at the end that the Tribulation Saints “don’t belong to the Church”. Forgive me, but I’d like to understand where they belong. I’m certain I must have missed or overlooked some teaching on them.

Have you calculated what 7 year period has 2550 days in it where there is the month of Adar in the 2nd half? I have heard time and time again by Hebrew scholars that 2014 fits the bill. Also, a neighbor was told by an ex ambassador to Israel to watch for 2014. It’s like no one will say for sure, but they say “Keep an eye on 2014.”

Re: 1st Peter 5:13 (Contemporary English Version). First of all may God continue to bless you always. Secondly, I have a question about 1st Peter 5:13, Who is Babylon here? I thought God had no favorites. Please explain to me.

Where does it say in the Bible that Old Testament believers need only to believe in the coming redeemer to be saved. Also, how does that correlate with animal sacrifices. Does it mean as long as they believed, they really did not have to sacrifice?

Re: What’s the difference? From the report of the spies in Numbers 13:33, I thought the people in the Land were Nephilim and that’s why the Lord told the Israelites to wipe them out.

In the book 7 Things you Need to Know to Understand Bible Prophecy, which I think is excellent, you say of post rapture Jewish believers, “Along with their Old Testament counterparts they’ll dwell in Israel during the Millennium (Ezekiel 43:6-7).”

I am confused with the “Old Testament counterparts” dwelling in Israel during the Millennium because I thought that the Old Testament believers are in Heaven with Jesus right now because they are part of “the Church” and will live in the New Jerusalem together with the gentiles who accept the Lord. Can you clarify this for me?

Why are we against abortion when the aborted baby goes directly to Heaven, never having been made to choose whether or not to believe in Jesus as it’s Savior? When my mother was pregnant with me she went to an abortionist to have the pregnancy terminated, only to change her mind at the last minute. Knowing the grievous sins I committed in my life, and the sins I caused others to commit, it would have been better if she had just gone ahead and terminated her pregnancy.

Your answer to the question on paradise made me think of a question. As believers go straight to the Lord when they die, will a child under the age of understanding, say a two or three year old, go to Heaven or Paradise if they die? And what is the age of understanding anyway?
