Sabbatical Cycles And Jubilees
Published: March 7, 2008Given that the Seventieth Week has to or should begin on a Sabbatical Cycle, The date ranges, 2018 and/or 2037, looks like they don’t match up with the Sabbatical Cycles. Also, when there is a Jubilee year, does the next Sabbatical Cycle start that same year or the next year?
OSAS And 2 Peter 2:21-22
Published: March 6, 2008I thought I was secure in my salvation by faith. I was recently told, however, that 2Peter 2:21-22 proved that I could lose that assurance. Is that possible? Now I’m concerned about this. Please advise me on this. Thank you so much.
New Temple Questions
Published: March 5, 2008Thanks so much for your articles on the end times.
I am not clear on the new Temple location. When Jesus put his foot on the Mount of Olives and the earthquake happens does He then go through the Golden Gate to the temple?
A Different Spirit?
Published: March 5, 2008Thanks again for being a great resource, and being Biblically grounded, once again I have another question for you.
My mother and I love each other very much, however when it comes to specific beliefs we just have to agree to disagree, and one specific area we disagree on (which doesn’t sit right in my spirit) is individuals claiming to have of gone hell and or heaven and back, etc..having angels flying down a portal to visit, having someone pray prophetically over someone paint a picture that God has told them to paint, and so on. She is so entranced by these things that when a Christian claims to have had these kinds of encounters, she believes them. I keep telling her that my spirit is uncomfortable, it doesn’t feel right, its not written in Bible, and yet she keeps telling me I’m putting God in a box. What is your take on this? Where do I draw the line as to what is Biblical and what is not? Thanks again for your help.
The Sheep And Goat Judgment
Published: March 4, 2008I have been pondering the Sheep and Goats judgment and wondering what its purpose is if the goats had taken the Mark of the Beast. It would seem that the goats could not have taken the mark because if they had there would be no possibility for them to enter the Millennial Kingdom. If this is true it suggests that there will be a large population that exists outside the main economy (that requires the mark to be a part of it). I can’t imagine this large a population existing in hiding.
My question is, Could this be pointing toward the rise of an Islamic economy that has a mark as proof of allegiance, while those with no mark have dhimmitude status?
Thanks for your faithful service. I look forward to reading your posts every day.

King Abdullah Of Jordan
Published: March 4, 2008Greetings and His blessings be upon you. Of recent times I have been burdened with the “silence” surrounding the country of Jordan. In other words, while the greater region of the Middle East is involved in terror and the flames of battle, Jordan appears to be unscathed and/or untouchable; most news agencies do not mention the name of Jordan … unless their king’s name [Abdullah] is in some way involved. No more, no less.
Perhaps there is a minor news “blackout?” Could it be a “protected neutral” area for some reason(s)? I must admit I am truly mystified. Surely some sort of end time scenario is involved here? I thank you in advance for any help and insight in the glorious name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Noahide Law World Wide?
Published: March 3, 2008In your Bible study of Revelation 6 you mention Islam being the religion of anti-Christ and I agree with you. However, recently I found the official web site of The re-established Jewish Sanhedrin. Beyond their other Jewish duties they would like to establish or re-establish the basics of Noahide Law world wide.
During the Tribulation, how could these two religions come together in agreement for “one” world religion under the anti-Christ?
Binding Satan
Published: March 3, 2008I was listening to another commentator today in re: Rev 20 and it got me to thinking about something:
Revelation 20:1-3 Tells of Satan’s capture and imprisonment. From this, I assume John means Satan and his minions, not just Satan only. If Satan and company are locked up for the 1000 years, who administers punishment? I mean, as bad as Satan is, wouldn’t “hell” be about the equivalent of a bad boy being sent to his room?
Also, Satan is a created being, therefore limited to being in 1 place at 1 time. The amount of damage done over the years by Satan was caused in his name but performed by many demons as well as Satan. If all the demons are still locked up, and Satan is the only one let out, how can Satan spread his influence so widely single-handedly? Or if this is to mean that Satan and company are loosed, wouldn’t some of those demons turn “good” after spending 1000 years in the fire and realizing that they aren’t going to win and would do anything to keep from going back?
I don’t know if there’s an answer to this, but maybe you can lend some insight
A Question On Ezekiel 38
Published: February 29, 2008Thanks so much for your articles on Ezekiel and the end times. I have been thinking about this quite a bit and have been reading Ezekiel 38-39. Ezekiel 38:19-21 talks about a great shaking in the land of Israel but in verse 20 it says “and all creeping things…and all the men that are on the face of the earth shall shake in my presence, and the mountains shall be thrown down… and every wall shall fall to the ground.” My question is, do you think this is a world wide earthquake or is it limited to Israel? If it is not world wide then why do all the men of the earth shake?
