I was recently reading an article about another bride type (Abigail and David and Nabal) and in the story (1 Samuel) Nabal takes ten days to die. Now Rebbeca stayed with her family ten days and Jesus told His disciples they would have tribulation ten days. Can you tell me what the significance is of those ten days and how and where they fit in with us in these last days?

You said that you felt the bad storms and such could be judgments from God. Right now Iowa is having horrible flooding. My question is if God is allowing this to send a message then why do you think the Midwest, America’s heartland, always gets hit. Why not California or the biggie Las Vegas, Nevada!

I have a friend who is a born again believer. She recently told me that she saw something in her house that frightened her. She believes it was a demon. After that, she has ” felt” something touch her. She said most recently, she felt like something was choking her. I suggested she talk to her pastor about this but she is afraid that he might think she is going crazy. Have you ever had experience with yourself or someone you know who is a believer being physically attacked by a demon? Do you have any suggestions I can pass along to my friend?

You recently replied to one of my questions by directing me to your article, “What did God do on the Eighth day?”

It was actually this article that made me ask the question, so I read over it again several times. I believe you are stating that someone who accepts the gift of salvation, commits their life to God and strives daily to draw closer to him, but has the additional belief that if they were to stray away from Him, they could lose their salvation, this particular person would not truly be saved at all, and would someday find themselves in Hell. Is this what you believe?

Thank you for your service to all who enjoy and learn from your site! Does the anti-Christ have to be Jewish or of Jewish decent? Or or just of middle eastern decent? I know this has been a major topic of discussion, but I’m unable to locate the info I’m looking for that suggests that he need not be Jewish.

When I was young I was told never to believe in ghosts. When I got a little older I noticed strange things happening in our old house. I was always told these things were because the house was old. So being told I was silly I brushed it off.

When I was in high school my parents built a new house right behind the old one and then tore it down. After we moved all the strange things seemed to stop and then one day it all began again. One night not too long after going to sleep I got that odd feeling that someone was staring at me. I saw a man standing 3 foot away from the foot of my bed just staring at me, my body stiffened up and I couldn’t move. Later, my parents searched the whole house and my room all windows and doors had been locked the whole time.

My mom confessed that in our old house one night when she was making dinner she got this weird feeling so she turned around and was face to face with someone. She said she immediately closed her eyes and stood there for about a minute and then reluctantly opened her eyes and no one was there. My brother admitted that he had always had this feeling that he wasn’t alone, that someone was watching. Its been said that they are demons though they have never hurt us should we fear them? Are they with us for a reason or just to scare us?

I know that Hebrews 9:27 says “man is destined to die once and after that to face judgment”. Does that mean people are judged right after they die, or does it refer to the “The Day of Judgment” where everyone will be judged at once?

May God continue to bless you. I receive a blessing every time I read your teachings. In reading the question: “how can he be saved” and your answer, it brought to mind a question I have been pondering for a long time.

In light of OSAS, I have to wonder how the Lord will handle the fate of the flamboyant, outrageous, pontifical,and sometimes outright deceitful preachers we hear and see on radio/tv? It really bothers me to know that these men and women ( supposedly saved ) are deliberately or ignorantly misleading the people who believe they are hearing the truth. Do they go home at night and pray for forgiveness? What do you believe is the answer to this obvious distortion of God’s word, and what will be God’s reward for them? It begs the question “how can ‘they’ be saved”?

It is my understanding that the bad weather (earthquakes, tornados, etc.) that we have now are demonic and not ‘acts of God’. I have found many scriptures that I feel back this indirectly but none that say directly that the weather we are having is from the evil in the world. Can you help me?

I had a question after reading your article on Psalm 83. Well, two things.

Do you think it’s interesting that we may also have a Barak in charge here soon?

And two, when do you think Zech. 14:2 will happen? “Half the city exiled, but the rest of the people will not be cut off from the city.” They are talking of dividing Jerusalem and giving East Jerusalem to the Palestinians, which of course will result in them terrorizing the residents. Don’t you think that is more imminent, or perhaps will be the result of this battle you are expecting.
