    Who is the restrainer?

    The Two Witnesses are killed by the Antichrist. Are you saying the Antichrist already arrived and killed them and we've been in a 2,500+ years Millennial period (1,000 year period)?

    Are you a monergist or a synergist?

    When you read the Book of Jonah it explains he gets tangled up in the seaweed and can't break free but as he's literally dying it tells us his thoughts, so he is praying in his mind (thank God that God can read our thoughts), but Jonah tells us as he's dying his thoughts were upon God. Then...

    Who is the restrainer?

    The power of the Two Witnesses will come from the Holy Spirit therefore the Holy Spirit must be the Restrainer because once the Witnesses are resurrected and raptured the Antichrist will finally rule the complete world.

    Calling them back means some left or considered leaving which is another act of the human will.

    Are you a monergist or a synergist?

    As much as I agree with you it still doesn't make sense for God to Inspire Joshua while addressing the Hebrew people to make them choose to follow God or not if man had no say in the matter.

    Resolving Problematic Interpretations of Scripture

    Out of interest and nothing connected to this discussion because your post reads as if you read the Bible and this is what the Spirit of God led you to believe. Are you by any chance someone who once did or currently does attend Churches associated with Methodist, Baptist, Wesleyan...

    Is cessation an observation or theology?

    The Story of Barbara Snyder The Illness: Barbara was diagnosed with advanced multiple sclerosis while in high school. Over a decade, her condition deteriorated to the point where she was paralyzed, unable to walk for seven years, reliant on a feeding tube and continuous oxygen, and placed in...

    Are you a monergist or a synergist?

    According to you it isn't teaching that but to majority of Scholars and Theologians it is. Even foolish AI makes a similar claim which is funny because it makes several claims for both sides of the coin. Bottom line is God made us able to do something that we choose not to do. And honestly I...

    Are you a monergist or a synergist?

    Acts 17: 26 And he made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their dwelling place, 27 that they should seek God, and feel their way toward him and find him. Yet he is actually not far from each one of...

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    Paul is documented by Luke in the Book of Acts as stating God created man with the ability to seek after and find God. It's true that Paul also said that man doesn't do that. But this Doctrine about man not being able to seek God should he want to proves man has the inate ability to do so and...

    A plea to return to scripture.

    The initial post seems to some degree a sort fishing escapade. Kind of like putting words out and if someone is offended then the hook is they're struggling with some sort of authority concerning Biblical structure and hierarchy. I like the approach personally but wonder what transpired for...

    Are you a monergist or a synergist?

    But you are well aware that Paul is documented by Luke in the Book of Acts as stating God created man with the ability to seek after and find God. It's true that Paul also said that man doesn't do that. But this Doctrine about man not being able to seek God should he want to proves man has the...

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    No, we still need to repent and the Lord's Prayer is a daily prayer that includes us seeking forgiveness + giving forgiveness. But a couple Verses later Jesus says if you don't forgive then you won't be forgiven. There's no condition connected to being snatched away because those who have...

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    Jesus, while teaching the Lord's Prayer said should we reject forgiveness that our Heavenly Father would reject forgiveness for us. So if one rejects forgiveness then they can be snatched away by virtue of the Warning given by Christ. Sins must be forgiven to be forgotten.

    Are you a monergist or a synergist?

    This merely proves that before Creation God created a Plan of Salvation because God made man and Angels with the ability to fall from Grace into darkness. Because God made man this way God provided a way to return back to Grace.

    Bible newcomer perplexed

    I will go through your post a little at a time but for now the eternal damnation portion I will respond to immediately. Everyone believes in something even if it is nothing. And God created the conditions of life based upon believing in Him or something else. For the most part that's a...

    The Church, and Israel and the Last Days.

    Isaiah 68:6 "Nation will be born in a day." Isaiah 11:11–12 “Then it will happen on that day that the Lord will again recover with His hand the second time the remnant of His people… And He will lift up a flag for the nations and assemble the banished ones of Israel, and will gather the...

    Can We Really Exercise Free Will?

    Sins paid for and seeking forgiveness for sins are not the same thing. You must personally forgive by remembering what was done to proclaim and offer forgiveness. We seek forgiveness then God removes it even though it's been covered in the Blood.

    The Ark of the Covenant Debate

    Agreed, but it would clarify if the 3rd Temple will be built and reveal the coming Antichrist.
