The Mark Of Cain

Published: November 23, 2007
Q

Here’s a question I am sure has been asked and answered a million times. But, I have never seen an answer. Does God reveal to us anyplace in scripture what was the Mark of Cain? Many thanks for your answer.


Annapolis And Ezekiel

Q

We hear lots of talk about Annapolis. What is your take? Just another conference doomed to fail, or the beginning of the end in terms of Bible prophecy?


Ezekiel 38, Daniel 9, And The Rapture

Published: November 21, 2007
Q

I was wondering if you had a chance to wonder about Javier Solana’s comments last week in regards to the peace that is supposed to come to Israel and it’s enemies. Solana said that he expects an agreement will come in about 9 months.

With this being said by Solana, could this be the covenant that Daniel was talking about? “And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week”? I find it very interesting also that Solana chose 9 months for the agreement. Especially when we see birth pangs happening to the earth. Around 9 months is the amount of time when a child is born. If so, wouldn’t that mean the rapture of the church would be right about now or very, very soon?


How Can He Do That?

Published: November 20, 2007
Q

I believe as you do that Eze 38,39 will occur before the beginning of the 70th week of Daniel. With the invading forces being destroyed and that Allah is not “the God who answers by fire”, how can the antichrist present himself as a moslem?


Do Angels Have Wings?

Published: November 20, 2007
Q

I would like your opinion on angels. Why are they always pictured as having wings? I think they’re God’s heavenly messengers so when God created them they can go through space at will. I picture it like when the rapture happens. We will have no wings. Jesus Christ in his new body left earth to heaven needing nothing special. What is your opinion? Thank you, and may God bless you for all you do for Him.


Identifying The 144,000

Q

A thought just crossed my mind. Do you think that through DNA processing science might be able to separate the 12 tribes spoken of in Rev. so that 12000 from each tribe might be identified?


The Believer’s Seal And The 144,000

Published: November 14, 2007
Q

Recently, I was put on the spot in front of my Church to debate a pastor who will be taking over early next year. I am pre – trib, and he is post trib. Curiously, during the debate, he asserted that the Christians would be sealed and protected by God through the tribulation, based on Ephes. 1:13. I think that the seal of the Holy Spirit in the hearts of Christians as a surety against our final redemption is very different from the seal of the name of the Lamb’s Father in the foreheads of the 144,000 Jewish evangelists during the tribulation.

The seal of the Holy Spirit in our hearts did not prevent millions of Christians from being slain through the ages, albeit that each of them had a soft landing. What do you think?


Peace Conference?

Published: November 14, 2007
Q

I write this with a great deal of anguish concerning the upcoming so-called peace conference to be held at the end of this month. I feel so compelled to pray against it and pray for Israel that my heart aches and tears fall.

My concern is whether I am praying contrary to God’s will if these events are leading up to the Rapture/tribulation period and in His divine plan. I know that we are commanded to pray for the peace of Jerusalem – which really is praying for Jesus’ return. I try to do this daily but I just keep feeling like what is going to take place is so wrong. How can I know what God’s will re: this event is?


Could A Woman Have Written Hebrews?

Published: November 13, 2007
Q

I have really enjoyed reading your insights on various topics especially end times. I have shared your website with many people.

I have read some books that speculate that the author of Hebrews was a woman and that is why it was unknown, since women were less than nothing in those days. Something to think about.


More On The Nephilim

Published: November 13, 2007
Q

In your three part series on the Nephilim, you mention their presence in the Old Testament after the flood. I’m familiar with the verses you mention, but wonder if you have an opinion on how they re-emerged since one would think they had been destroyed by the flood.

If you have any thoughts on this question, I would appreciate knowing what you think.
