Two Witnesses Error? One More Time

Published: March 8, 2007
Q

I never tire of your knowledge. Thank you. On the controversy of the two witnesses, where can I find scripture that backs up Moses’ role, and not Enoch’s? The fact that Enoch and Elijah never died makes sense, but many Bible scholars have said it will be Moses. I’ve wondered this myself. Perhaps it may have something to do with Moses and Elijah appearing with the Lord on the mount of Transfiguration. Am I wrong?


Millennial Children

Published: March 7, 2007
Q

I have a couple of questions actually all referring to the same thing and am looking for verses confirming your answer.

Will there be children born during this period by believers who survived the Tribulation?

Assuming the above question is true.

I assume freewill is still around even though Satan is bound and in the bottomless pit and the anti-Christ and false prophet are in the lake of fire. Will these children have the choice to or not to believe in Christ? And if they choose not to what happens to them? Will they live till the 1000 years are complete? Or will something else happen to them?

Last, when Satan is released from the pit, some people will be deceived. Will it be the children who were born during this time who have not accepted Christ as Savior?


Two Witnesses Error? Follow Up

Q

It is with tender Christian Love I say the following:

Now, on the subject of The Two Witnesses. Deut. 34:5-7. says Moses DIED in the land of Mo’ab v.5. Moses was buried.v.6. Moses was 120 years old when He DIED…v.7.

Hebrews 9: 27. “And it is appointed unto men once to die,…”

1st. Corinthians 15:51. “We shall not all sleep…” meaning those of us who are alive (at the time of the Rapture).

When one says Moses will be one of the two witnesses, he/she creates a problem; that being, Moses dying twice and Enoch not dying at all, which conflicts with God’s WORD. Also, One implies that there is a reincarnation of Moses.


Any Modern Simeons Around?

Published: March 4, 2007
Q

As I listened to one of your teachings on the Rapture and Great Tribulation, a curious question that had come to mind a few months ago, came back again. Do you think there is anyone living today that may be someone like Simeon (who was promised he would not die until he saw the Messiah) regarding the Rapture of the Church? The person who has come to mind both times is the Rev. Billy Graham. I’m sure this question had an obvious answer such as yes, but I was wondering what your thoughts are about this.

Just a word of thanks, your God-inspired insight regarding the book of Revelation has re-ignited the fire of longing for His return I haven’t felt since I put a prayer in a crevice of the Western Wall in Israel in 1985. The prayer was the chorus of a song, “Oh Lord Jesus how long, how long, ere we shout the glad song, Christ returneth, Hallelujah, Amen.”


Where Is Jesus Now?

Published: March 4, 2007
Q

First I want to thank the Lord for your website and pray God’s continued blessings on your ministry. Where do we born again Christians go when we die? Heaven or Paradise the compartment of Hades? Personally, I feel it is irrelevant as I will be absent from the body and present with my Lord Jesus Christ where ever He is. There are however those who make an issue of this point. It is sad that Christians allow Satan to use this small point and others like it to divide Christians from fellowship.

I want to find out more about Deuteronomy 22:5 and the Bible’s position on women wearing pants to church. Can you explain this?

 


Mormon Eschatology

I came across an article and it made me realize that I have no idea what the LDS teach about the end times. Do you? With Mitt Romney running for president, it might be nice to know what he believes.


Abandoning Israel

Published: February 28, 2007
Q

Does the Lord say anywhere about the enemies of Israel fighting amongst themselves? I was thinking about how the Sunnis and Shias are at war with each other but are still enemies of Israel.

I also have read recently about Russia deploying the Air-Defense Systems to Iran to protect their uranium testing which is worrisome in itself.

Also, the U.S. now says that it will speak with Iran and Syria about the current Iraq situation. Do you think that this could lead to discussions about the U.S. abandoning Israel to it’s enemies?


An Islamic AntiChrist?

Published: February 27, 2007
Q

In Revelation 6, the rider on the white horse had a bow. We know that Ishmael was identified as an archer in Genesis 21:20. Could the current “Islamization” that is taking place in Europe result in an Islamic Antichrist?


Ezekiel’s Battle And Daniel’s 70th Week

Published: February 26, 2007
Q

I have a time line problem with the Ezekiel 38 battle and the advent of the Antichrist. How this two events relate to each other? What confuse me is, that the Jews will burn the weapons 7 years long after this battle and they will be preoccupied with the burials too. If this battle will kick off the 70th week of Daniel and/or around this time will the AC appear with his 7 year peace treaty, than there will be no time to burn this weapons 7 years long because after 3 and a half years,the Jews will flee.

Because of the 7 years long weapon burning, I don’t think this battle will occur after the AC’s peace treaty or am I wrong? And the Bible says Israel will feel herself safe when the Ezekiel 38 battle begin. But current political events seems to set the stage for the peace treaty,not the Ezekiel battle.(It’s true that this battle’s participants are here and forming too.)And without this peace treaty I couldn’t imagine that they would feel safe in any degree. So,I’m very confused.
