With the Rapture occurring before the “man of Sin” is revealed and with Satan having access to Heaven for the first 3 1/2 years of Daniel’s 70th week, is it likely that we who are raptured will see him and his fallen angel followers prior to their being cast down to earth for the final 3 1/2 years of Daniel’s 70th week?

I would like to hear your thoughts on a comment that I heard recently from a respected Bible teacher who said that Ezekiel 39:9-10 says that after the War of Gog & Magog, the Jews will burn the weapons from this war for fuel for a total of 7 years. The Bible teacher went on to say that because in Revelation 12:6 (3.5 yrs into the tribulation) the Jews flee Israel to a place prepared for her by God (Petra) and therefore the War of Gog & Magog has to start at least 3.5 years before the start of the Tribulation Period.

I have got to ask this question about angels mating with humans. The Bible says in heaven we are neither married or given in marriage. [Mark 12:25] There is neither male or female in heaven [Galatians 3:28] That being known; Why would the angels have the ability to reproduce with anything, let alone humans? It seems contradictory, to have angels mating with anything let alone producing Nephilims to run about.

I couldn’t find anything on your site regarding this subject so I’m asking myself. I apologize if you’ve answered this many times before. I read commentaries about John’s mother, Salome, being Jesus’ aunt. I have a hard time envisioning that. How likely is it that they are cousins? I appreciate your wealth of knowledge on all aspects of the Bible.

There’s only one thing that bothers me about my church and that is they do not teach anything about end-times prophecy. In 7 years I have never heard 1 sermon in regards to the book of Revelation or any other end times events as spoken of in the Bible. I have heard that since we will not be here for the tribulation so why teach about it if we are not going to be here? That does not make sense to me. Am I way off here? If the bible is approximately 33% prophecy, filled and unfilled, shouldn’t at least some of the sermons be about prophecy, filled and unfilled?

Hebrews 11:3 KJV says, “Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.” The plural “worlds” confuses me. Does it mean Heaven as a world as well as Earth?

The church has become so liberal that it is becoming self-righteous by changing God into what they are as opposed to us changing into what God wants us to be. And, in my opinion, is responsible for misleading the sheep to slaughter. Faith is an act of belief. I think Jesus made it plain when He said, “If you love Me, keep my commandments.” Believing in Christ does not make it legal to sin and that is the misleading part. I could go on, but I won’t. I just believe that a person who is safe in Christ is so because they are walking with Him. I whole heartedly believe a person cannot lose (their salvation) but can forfeit their hope of eternal life by choosing to go back to their old ways. If one cannot, then they were more free before coming to know Christ since they are in a bondage where they cannot choose. Free indeed means freedom to come, and to go, if one desires.

Matt. 5:5 says, “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.” Do you know what Jesus meant by this verse?

I know that Jesus’ death on the cross paid the price for all of my past, present, and future sins. And I know that nothing I have done or ever can do could help me earn my salvation. It’s already been done by Jesus. My question though is this: Does God get angry or upset with us believers for things we do or times of doubt? I know all I need is to repent/ask forgiveness but I still wonder if we do things that make him mad and want to discipline us the way a loving dad would their own son?

In another Q&A you said, “Freedom means all the sins of our life have been covered, that we don’t ever have to worry about measuring up. If we slip, as we all do, we’re guaranteed forgiveness each time we ask.” What if the person slips up and does not ask for forgiveness or does not desire forgiveness and keeps on sinning?
