Regarding Gifts of the Holy Spirit, I’m still waiting. Having never had an epiphany, of course, I’m at a loss as to the starting place of when to expect my Gift. But, to the best of my knowledge, I’ve never received one unless I am too dense to recognize it. So, how does one know and recognize his Gift? I have read many questions similar to or identical with mine from people who, like I, have lived their whole life and never recognized a hint of a Gift.

I would like to know the following. I am aware that Jesus Christ died for my sins, once and for all (me and everybody). I believe this means all my sins past, present, and future are forgiven, wiped away, and I am clean. So, when my “sinful nature” sins again, if I can put it that way, do I still have to ask for forgiveness of sins, or do I just admit that I’ve sinned and that I know it is wrong, and then thank Him that He has forgiven me already?

We know Jesus died for our sins , so that by believing in him we will not perish but have everlasting life. Believing in him is not just saying, “I was saved once and I will always be saved,” but is continuously trying to live as Jesus would have us live, and continually suppressing the whims and caprices of our flesh, which is corrupt in nature.

While we are in this state of living for Christ, remaining unblemished and fit for the rapture, do we still regard ourselves sinners? What happened to “I am a new creation”? Where is the power of the Blood that was shed if it still doesn’t stop us from being sinners?

I had a huge shock last Christmas when my pastor stood in front of our church and proclaimed ALL 500+ prophesies of Jesus had already been fulfilled. I really believe this man is a man of God but how on earth could he say such a thing? When I first walked into this church 8 years ago after spending 4 years looking, I felt at home. But now I am beginning to doubt that I am in the right place. I don’t know what to do. Can you help?

I can’t find anything regarding this on your site or in scripture. I know that before Yashua was crucified, He told His disciples to arm themselves. Is there anything more that answers this question? Is owning a gun show a lack of faith?

In your answer to the question “Sin In The Millennium?” you said “Lately I’ve had the suspicion that a third testament may emerge for the Millennial Age, just like a second one emerged for the Church Age. There are simply too many unanswered questions.” In light of Rev. 22:18 (“If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues”, etc.) would it not be correct to believe that the Holy Scripture is pretty much complete in its fullness? And since we will have the King Jesus reign with humankind on Earth during the Millennium, will the Lord’s physical presence not be enough to provide all the answers to people’s questions?

About three years ago, I went to a praise meeting, and while we prayed, the Lord told me, through a lady, to make an altar in my house. The message was so strong and clear that I had no other alternative but to obey Him. I made the altar. It consists of a small table, and on it I put my Bible. The thing is I adorned it with a picture of the Lord Jesus, some holy water, and a couple of angels. I pray at least twice a day, but when I pray I bow. I do not bow to the picture but because I feel the Lord?s presence when I pray. Am I making a mistake?

My question comes from Revelation 21 and 22. I’m wondering if something has been lost in translation. Rev. 21:1 says “. . . there was no longer any sea.”, the earth having been restored. Rev. 22, drawing on Ezekiel and Zechariah, indicates the River of Life flowing to the Mediterranean in the west and Dead Sea in the east. Would you please help me understand how the sea is gone yet seems to exist during the Millennium?

Thank you so much for helping me to learn the Word. My question is from Revelation 6:6 dealing with last part, “and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.” I’m sure it must mean more than a literal meaning.

I’ve enjoyed your website immensely, and look forward to new articles each day. In your “Revelation Times” articles, I noted in the “hail judgment” in Revelation 16, that “since stoning is the Biblical penalty for blasphemy, The Lord sends 100 pound hailstones to the Earth in judgment, and to prepare it for when Christ returns.” I’ve noted other authors echo this as well.

Being involved with severe weather operations in Arkansas, I noted that in 2010, there was a hailstone in South Dakota, that set a record for the United States … 8 inches in diameter, 19 inches in circumference, and nearly 2 pounds. The stones in Rev. 16 would be 50 times that size. The Bible is silent on how long it will last, but if a hailstorm of that magnitude lasted more than a few minutes, it would pretty much destroy anything left standing, and flatten the topography of the Earth in preparation for Christ’s Second Coming. Is that the way you see it?
