Well, they'll be dressed in sackcloth, standing on the streets of Jerusalem prophesying. Anyone who tries to harm them will die, they will be able to bring plagues on people, shouldn't be too hard to notice. lol.....simple but true.....kinda hard to miss those two!

I understand the silencing part I think

I would include a combination to a hidden safe, where you leave as much gold and silver possible, as the ones left behind will be faced with either starving to death or receiving the mark. maybe the best thing you could leave your loved ones, is the letter and a huge cash of stored food, that has been properly stored this also may work in your favor if by some odd chance you were wrong

the church gave away its freedom when they allowed the government to dictate what could be discussed within its walls.

I would conclude this antisemitism to be what God has used in the past to bring His people back to Israel I would also say that Jews were not the ones who Jesus said would be hated by all nations, but it makes sense that the Jews first and then as always the wild ingraft second as we see there is a great holocaust planned for believers as we see all the people in heaven who died in the days of the tribulation

Many good questions. One good answer. The nation of Israel is the focus of all Biblical prophecy. Events in the middle east have a ripple effect that spreads throughout the world, but the center of it all is Israel. Americans tend to think the universe, the Bible and God all orbit the United States, but nothing makes any sense if that attitude is adopted. Until the 19th century it was generally accepted that Israel was the center of all prophecy. Then heresy blossomed and all traditional interpretations were up for grabs. Everything changed - from Darwin to Darby and from Freud to the Federal Reserve Banking act. Today nothing remains from the old world and the traditional interpretation of scripture. Today we are 'enlightened' and we've used our light to bring the world to edge of the abyss of total destruction. Satan is worshipped in our cities and schools and God is dissed everywhere. The King of Israel is coming back to assume His rightful throne IN ISRAEL. Inspect the other prophetic issues in this light and things will strangely come into focus. but that's just me, hollering from the choir loft... Important note is America is not mentioned in the last days scenario..........and its pretty evident why

I Love The Word Of God And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled. Revelation 6:9-11 Especially When It Talks About The Jew And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea, Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel. Of the tribe of Juda were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nepthalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasses were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were Of the tribe of Zabulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand. Revelation 7:2-8 And Company After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb. And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God, Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen. And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they? And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them. For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes. Revelation 7:9-17 basically the sign he is refering to is a grand scale holocaust of Christians, please note the scripture where they are like the first martyrs who are waiting to be resurrected, they too are given a white robe and remain with the Lord until they are given their resurrected bodies...............to many people equate the saints in heaven to be raptured saints, although we see being in heaven and being given a white robe did inconclude their resurrection for the martyrs in Rev. 6:11 as they are still told to wait

In the end it won't matter what I believed hell was like or what you believed hell was like, it will only matter what God said hell was going to be like, and the reality of Him and its existance will be as real as the face you look at in the mirror Jesus said I am the way the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father except through Me..........all other religions will not lead to the one true God, only through Jesus can salvation be found

the devil uses lots of different people to do his work, many are even unaware that they are being used by him, Its best not to put a whole lot of stock in what people think about you because you will never stand before them and make an account they will have too one day make an account of how they tried to make you feel inferior by abusing their authority the great equalizer will be here soon keep your chin up, He will level the field

thats a good answer!

the church service is very clearly shown in the writings of Paul, although I have yet to find a church that adheres to the biblical standards outlined from scripture, It appears that enough false teachers have infiltrated her ranks to move the biblical standards to a place where much of what Paul taught no longer happens..............clearly the great falling away is already happening, as is most biblical teaching is just a shell of what we see taught in the bible

Jesus answers this question Mathew 20:1-16 “For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard. 2 Now when he had agreed with the laborers for a denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard. 3 And he went out about the third hour and saw others standing idle in the marketplace, 4 and said to them, ‘You also go into the vineyard, and whatever is right I will give you.’ So they went. 5 Again he went out about the sixth and the ninth hour, and did likewise. 6 And about the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing idle,[a] and said to them, ‘Why have you been standing here idle all day?’ 7 They said to him, ‘Because no one hired us.’ He said to them, ‘You also go into the vineyard, and whatever is right you will receive.’[b] 8 “So when evening had come, the owner of the vineyard said to his steward, ‘Call the laborers and give them their wages, beginning with the last to the first.’ 9 And when those came who were hired about the eleventh hour, they each received a denarius. 10 But when the first came, they supposed that they would receive more; and they likewise received each a denarius. 11 And when they had received it, they complained against the landowner, 12 saying, ‘These last men have worked only one hour, and you made them equal to us who have borne the burden and the heat of the day.’ 13 But he answered one of them and said, ‘Friend, I am doing you no wrong. Did you not agree with me for a denarius? 14 Take what is yours and go your way. I wish to give to this last man the same as to you. 15 Is it not lawful for me to do what I wish with my own things? Or is your eye evil because I am good?’ 16 So the last will be first, and the first last. For many are called, but few chosen. once someone receives somthing its is their own property and they have every right to do with it as they see fit

Ha ha ha stands to reason why the RCC bought it, thats what their all about, buiding huge buildings, yet not one disciple ever taught such a wasteful practice

I find it amusing that people in a slowly boiling pot have no idea that a flame sits under them, any reference to such a thing is merely shrugged off as a crazy conpiracy theory, who would hate "Christians"?.............Jesus said ALL NATIONS would......but thats just what Jesus told His disciples, not to many people take Him at His word

whether or not you think its absurd, the Boston Globe had published this fact before the Marathon, whether or not the two guys used this information I have no idea? I don't think anyone here has said they were not guilty, its just a big black eye on an agency that might of been running a practice of what if someone planted a bomb at this event, and even with a whole team of navy seals running a scenario right under their noses the real deal happens this wouldn't be the first time this same kind of thing has happened, the same thing happened on 911 which is why fighter jets couldn't find the real threats as they were running manuevers for this type of scenario Great Britton had the same thing with they"re bombing of the subway its just amazing of how either incredibly lucky these terrorist are, or how indepth their intel is

"eternal hell" could simply be eternal because it stands outside of time, I think its hard for most people to grasp the notion of a place where time may not exist, and the notion of being in a place that has no days or nights as this is how we perceive time. God is eternal because He is not trapped by time, it has no hold on Him, I believe the worst part about hell will be the sheer hopelessness of getting out, and the realization of what you missed, and where you ended up, because no matter what one believes about hell and its length of duration the one sure thing we do know is nobody gets out

thanks for the scripture backing ones reward, as different from salvation

I have to say a whole lot of connection between what happens in heaven and what happens on earth are very apparent, although natural man can not see these things, but the whole new testiment shows a direct corelation beteen what is bound on earth is bound in heaven, and even Jesus Himself in teaching us to pray mentions this very fact, "on earth as it is in heaven"

In a way you are correct the mark is a spiritual mark that God and demons can see, when you give your allegience to satan and his kingdom and his antichrist you receive his mark, just as demons can see very clearly who is walking around with the Holy Spirit but according to biblical hermeneutics the mark is also very much a literal mark, that allows literal humans to literally buy or sell real literal food and materials the only alternative is to then conclude a spiritual meaning to the buying and selling, what would you conclude this buying and selling in the spirit to mean?

well in not so many words then, I would say were in some sort of agreement, although I think the only discrepancy is the form of angels, from the bible they are called flames of fire, ministering spirits, and in the bible we plainly see they have ability to take on human form. we also see them in the bible in a form of heavenly host, possibly their natural state of being, I am under the belief that angels are of the substance we don't comprehend, where they are like capable of what we see Jesus doing after His resurrection, walking through walls and yet materializing to have someone touch Him to see that He is not just a ghost. this concept is outside our laws of physics but none the less we see both angels and Jesus, able to manifest in human form and then for all practical purposes disappear or walk through a wall Its my belief that angels who lived in the heavenly abode, chose to disobey God and live with humans teaching them many things that God was not happy about, whether or not you or I believe angels have the ability to create offspring, we see that some form of sexual immoral acts took place according to Jude, while people might not understand the possibilities of these things, from scripture we see a race of giants that infested the land and while no DNA have been sampled from these giants, I would be quite certian that athiestic institutions such as Smithsonian have already discovered the secret of the giants, which is exactly why they are quickly swept away from public view, as recorded accounts of finding giants have gone through history, even here in America 9 and 10 foot humans were discovered in I think Wisconson, yet you never see any of these findings displayed its because the giants give undisputable proof that the bible is true, because the DNA is the smoking gun so to say Its even hard for some Christians to except the supernatural events of what the bible teaches, even to the point where some Christians try to figure out miracles such as the parting of the red sea as a natural wind and a low tide and a high point in the bottom of the sea that goes across as bieng what occured in the story of Moses a story is going around that our military in the recent war in Afghanistan killed a giant that lived in a cave, the dimensions of this being is huge, of course its not confirmed by media, but again the bible said the nephilim would be before and after the flood

I would of hated to be one of the guys the news media first posted as possible terrorist, I wondered what happened when the FBI had a newsbrief and told everyone these pictures of different suspects are the only credible ones and some reporter was asking a question that kept getting ignored in the press conference, only after the press conference do you see the rest of the news media focussing on some reporter getting removed.......does anyone know what he was asking?

I always find it strange to meet Christians that think the world could get better, if we did this or that, and all the while the bible says it gets worse and worse, from everything from hurricanes to earthquakes to diseases and pestilences and famines Oh not to mention people get more corupted and evil as time gets to the end too.........you will be hated by ALL NATIONS! but cheer up help is on the way!

Imagine if someone discovered a way to neutralize radiation on a grand scale, you could probably by that whole city for a song, and then spray your neutralizer and wala! you have your own city........hey its just a daydream!

I'm on Moderator Review right now, I don't see my post until a moderator ok's it so sometimes I answer twice because I forgot I already answered it, sorry about that so your thinking is angels can leave their estate as an angel and can become human?

your addictions can be broken as a start to kicking the demonic activity out of your life, I have a two step method for breaking the addiction to cigerettes, It works everytime, and you will like the method because you can smoke as much as you want, but you must adhere to two simple rules, and never break them. 1. you must always smoke alone 2. when you smoke make it your prayer time, pray out loud while you are enjoying the cigerette, it won't be long and the devil himself will set you free from nicotine, you won't even have withdrawls
