@god_came_down @kathmregel @brunobarking @KarenCicco @the_usal @JustBibleTruth @DaMadMattster @TheSisko @soonintheclouds @jnatael I believe the 42 months starts when he breaks the covenant - abomination of desolation And yeah, I think it's possible we won't know the start date of the covenant until sometime after it's made ...I don't think the Bible is clear on that

So 42 months is 3 1/2 years. Would this 3 1/2 years also begin with the treaty with many that is later confirmed by the AC? Remember, the AC doesn’t need to initiate the treaty, the AC only needs to later CONFIRM the treaty with many for one 7. So the start date of that confirmed treaty may be a start date that has already begun.

May almighty God and His Son Jesus, the Messiah who came the first time 2000 years ago as a Lamb, and will come very soon as the LION of the tribe of Judah to save save His people Israel, be glorified. Let the will of God be done, and let the will of man be in His hands.

Guys .. does the bible clearly foretell an upcoming 3rd world war? If yes in what book? @katinka12542233 @DaMadMattster @brunobarking @CauseToKnow @god_came_down @KarenCicco @TheSisko @kathmregel @Matthew56193629 @soonintheclouds @JustBibleTruth

Read these verses and let's discuss 1 John 5:20 “We are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ.” 1John 2:5 “But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.” 1 John 3:23–24 “And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another … And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him.” John 14:16–20 “At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you” John 15:4–5 “Abide in me, and I in you … He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit” 1 John 4:15 “Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.” This is the meaning of being "in Christ"

Ok that's interesting. We believers will follow Jesus into the kingdom. However, there will be people who did not go to fight at the battle of Armageddon ...women, elderly, the sick or lame, and maybe those that are too young. They will continue living on the earth as Jesus sets up his millennial kingdom. I believe Isaiah 3:25-4:1 refers to these Armageddon survivors when he prophesied that men would fall by the sword, the mighty ones would die in battle; and “seven women shall take hold of one man, saying . . . let us be called by thy name to take away our reproach.” With so many men killed in battle, the remnant will be so few that seven women will be willing to share one man.

This is an interesting verse. V13 says the promise was not through the law, but through the righteousness of faith. So when v16 says, not to that only which is of the law, who is he talking about? Not the Jews ...the promised inheritance cannot be obtained by keeping the law. It comes only by faith. I believe the phrase, "not to that only which is of the law" refers to Jesus. And all others who receive the promise receive it by faith. So Rev 4:16 could be paraphrased: Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to Jesus only, but to all who are of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all,

I believe the Ancient of days is God the Father sitting and giving his judgement ...giving Jesus and his saints the kingdom forever

I see the rapture in Rev 7:9, shortly after the 6th seal. Then after the rapture, the 7th seal is opened, there's silence for 30 minutes, and the DOTL starts in Rev 8:5 There is another reference to the rapture in Rev 18:4 "Come out of her, my people", and they are in heaven in Rev 19. We can discuss later the idea that certain events are mentioned more than once in John's visions. The rapture is one of those certain events, being mentioned in Rev 7:9, 18:4, and 14:14-16. But I'm going to have to hold off on this discussion for another day.

@KarenCicco @TheSisko @BohanTheRefiner @Matthew56193629 @brunobarking @katinka12542233 @god_came_down @FunkFun53239659 @DaMadMattster @JustBibleTruth @soonintheclouds @the_usal @kathmregel I've always thought it was for their idolatry and other sins and rebellion against him

The saints will be with Jesus from the moment we are resurrected/raptured. "Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord." (1 Thes 4:17) And when he returns for the battle of Armageddon, we will still be with him. "And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean." (Rev 19:14) And we will be with him when he establishes his 1000 yr kingdom and forever more

Didn't mean to convey that. Spiritual Israel is all those who are of the faith of Abraham (see Rom 4:16). Physical Israel was Isaac, Jacob, and Jacob's descendants. And Abraham is said to be the physical father of all of those people Speaking to Jacob: "And, behold, the LORD stood above it, and said, I am the LORD God of Abraham thy father" (Gen 28:13) "And Jacob said, O God of my father Abraham" (Gen 32:9) ...and many more

@KarenCicco @TheSisko @BohanTheRefiner @Matthew56193629 @brunobarking @katinka12542233 @god_came_down @FunkFun53239659 @DaMadMattster @JustBibleTruth @soonintheclouds @the_usal @kathmregel Can you cite which scriptures you’re referring to?

@KarenCicco @TheSisko @BohanTheRefiner @Matthew56193629 @brunobarking @katinka12542233 @god_came_down @FunkFun53239659 @DaMadMattster @JustBibleTruth @soonintheclouds @the_usal @kathmregel Spiritual Israel includes Jacob (Israel) and believers from the 12 tribes of Israel and believing gentiles. We are saved by the new covenant, which was made with Israel - spiritual Israel

@KarenCicco @TheSisko @BohanTheRefiner @Matthew56193629 @brunobarking @katinka12542233 @god_came_down @FunkFun53239659 @DaMadMattster @JustBibleTruth @soonintheclouds @the_usal @kathmregel I read that to mean that power over the saints was given to him for 42 months. At the end of his 42 months, no saints will be on the earth

Not one person in this chat separates Israel / BoC except maybe you and me That is the crux of every debate Y’all debate the wrong topics

@KarenCicco @TheSisko @BohanTheRefiner @Matthew56193629 @brunobarking @katinka12542233 @god_came_down @FunkFun53239659 @DaMadMattster @JustBibleTruth @soonintheclouds @the_usal @kathmregel All the living believers before the rapture and then those believers who come to faith after the rapture

@JustBibleTruth @KarenCicco @TheSisko @BohanTheRefiner @Matthew56193629 @brunobarking @katinka12542233 @god_came_down @FunkFun53239659 @DaMadMattster @soonintheclouds @the_usal @kathmregel Let’s make sure if we’re going to speak for one another, we get it right. Who says no Jew/gentiles in the BoC?

@KarenCicco @TheSisko @CauseToKnow @BohanTheRefiner @Matthew56193629 @brunobarking @katinka12542233 @god_came_down @FunkFun53239659 @DaMadMattster @soonintheclouds @the_usal @kathmregel I know. But these guys can’t get anything correct bc they violate simple interpretation principles They all say no jew/gentile in BoC then turn around and say we are “spiritual Israel” and have to go thru part of “Jacobs Trouble” 🤡 make it make sense

@JustBibleTruth @KarenCicco @TheSisko @BohanTheRefiner @Matthew56193629 @brunobarking @katinka12542233 @god_came_down @FunkFun53239659 @DaMadMattster @soonintheclouds @the_usal @kathmregel Not two different programs. One program - faith! Abraham was made righteous by his faith and so are we. The only seed of Abraham was Christ. Anyone else who becomes the seed of Abraham does so by being in Christ …by faith

@KarenCicco @CauseToKnow @TheSisko @BohanTheRefiner @Matthew56193629 @brunobarking @katinka12542233 @god_came_down @FunkFun53239659 @DaMadMattster @soonintheclouds @the_usal @kathmregel Exactly! This is why Paul says we are justified by FAITH alone per Abraham Rom 4 Then James turns around and says Abe was justified by WORKS James 2:21 2 different programs and until people understand this they will be confused
