    What is the sheep-goat judgment of Mt 25:31-32? When will it take place?

    What I understand is that the Kingdom of God on earth constitutes all the believers, who have surrendered to Jesus and made him the King of their lives. These are the ones who do the will of God. The kingdom of God is not an earthly temporal kingdom, but a spiritual one. (Then there is also the...

    What is the sheep-goat judgment of Mt 25:31-32? When will it take place?

    Ahwatukee, This is what I gather from your posts: Many saints(who refused to take the mark) will be martyred by the Antichrist during the 7 year tribulation. Jesus will return at the end of the 7 years tribulation(end of the age) to judge the world. These slain saints will then be...

    The same chapter (Mt 25) also talks about the parable of the 10 virgins and the talents. Are not these 2 parables related to the gathering of the church?

    Does anyone have a timeline of the end times that include the rapture, Bema, tribulation, Armageddon, MK.... What is the journey covered by the tribulation saints? Aren't these the ones who were left behind at the rapture, but who somehow made it to the new earth?

    What is the sheep-goat judgment of Mt 25:31-32? When will it take place?

    Thanks for your reply. Need some clarification. If I'm not mistaken, satan will be released for a short time towards the end of the MK, when he will deceive many. Will the sheep-goat judgment take place after the release of satan? If yes, is this judgment placed at the end of the MK? Are we...

    Why did Peter and John have to go to Samaria in the Book of Acts 8:14

    Have heard many viewpoints. Some of them are below: 1. So that the Jews may end their animosity with the Samaritans and accept them as their brothers and sisters.

    Mary is not the mother of God

    Absolutely blasphemous to call Mary the Mother of God! Mother-child worship is as old as Nimrod and Semiramis. Pagan traditions got incorporated into Christianity during the reign of Constantine around 300AD. Mary worship began around 431AD. Then they elevated her above Jesus and then above...
