Then that would be inconsistent with the Bible. Revelation 7:9 is pretty clear that this Great Multitude is in Heaven. They are standing before the Throne, in the presence of the Lamb, in white robes. Whereas the 144,000 in verses 1-8 are being sealed by the four angels, very similar to...

A bit of irony I find in this, is that Dispensationalists tend to use this passage, i.e. the 144,000's presence on earth at this time of Revelation 7 while the Great Multitude is in Heaven, as ammo supporting the Pre-Trib POV. I will give this much: 1) It does look like, while the 144,000...

People read way too much into the 144,000, on all sides. All Revelation 7 is saying is that you will find both saved Jews and Gentiles in Heaven (and probably more Gentiles). The first half, John describes the saved Jews he saw there. The second half describes the saved Gentiles, numbering...

White Nationalists waving the Christian flag.

The Texas governor had a great big Black Lives Matter mural painted right down the street from their state capitol. But you won't hear Trump dare trash Texas as the "evil liberal hotspot" like he says about New York. Even though the action was exactly the same.

Board, you heard her. Protesting is not democracy, number of people doesn't count--IN A DEMOCRACY. And the U.S. isn't even a democracy.

The $3.57 million was to the 174 men who had been wounded. Also a joke. And do note the U.S. gives Israel $6 billion a year in free handout taxpayer money every year, so really Israel didn't pay anything at all. As for your claim that it has no basis in fact whatsoever, while it is not...

Okay guys, You're the "experts". You tell me what the exact model of the aircraft was. As if that detail really matters much. I'll give you a hint: I just now looked it up, and found out very quickly they were in fact F4 Phantom Jets. I'm "knocked between the eyes" because I got the...

Not true. A squadron of F-16's was dispatched to rescue the U.S. sailors during the hour-long attack. LBJ ordered them TURNED BACK. He betrayed U.S. service personnel. Additionally, the Israeli "reparations" paid amounted to just over $3 million. Which is a complete joke, considering 34...

How did the Israelites go through the plagues of Egypt? Not by leaving Egypt. They didn't leave Egypt until AFTER the plagues were done.

Everybody dies from cardiac arrest. That's why you're required to list TWO causes of death on the death warrant.

"If you hold true to the faith to very end, you will be transformed into a floating many-eyed creature in Heaven." Maybe exactly 4 people in Asia Minor found that thought appealing. :)

He's not the first U.S. President to throw his own troops under the bus. When the USS Liberty was attacked by Israel, President LBJ called back the jets sent out to protect the American sailors.

Where I think Gordon Fee might fall short from a futurist point of view is that maybe John REALLY WAS snatched to Heaven and simply wrote down the things he saw, about things to come. At that point, the hermeneutic is really no different from reading a newspaper article. See many-eyed...

Ah yes, says your source straight from the IDF: Hen Mazzig is an international speaker, writer, activist and social media enthusiast from Tel Aviv. He served as a humanitarian affairs officer in the IDF's Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories unit. Twitter @HenMazzig. Give...

"Jew" is a religion, not a race. Again, you are marginalizing the Palestinians, who are of Middle Eastern descent. Jesus was a Palestinian, born to Palestinian parents. In Palestine. Christianity is a Middle Eastern religion. It is your injection of racist overtones to it--that is what...

Okay dude, because you are so intent on this, I will play along. Let's say you're right. You found me out: that guy named acts5_29 is actually a secret undercover Muslim agent. You mean to tell me that it is in fact the Muslim "terrorists" who are fighting for racial equality, while it is...

As opposed to the President who is.... And yes, as a matter of fact protesters CAN take over the city, if there are enough of them. Again, that is called democracy. The protesters outnumber the rally goers, as well they should.

I think I am leaning more toward an idealistic view of Revelation. That is certainly not the fad nowadays (futurist is "in"). John's intended audience was Asia Minor, who were actively undergoing persecution. We should read that similarly to the other letters: that they were occasional...

I finished Gordon Fee's book on Reading the Bible for All It's Worth. Of particular interest, this being a Revelation study, was the last chapter. Gordon's interpretation of Revelation based on his own set of hermeneutics was interesting: it's kind of a form of preterism (possibly...
