First where do you get the idea of Israel being the main object for Revelation? Second where do you get the idea that The Holy Spirit is taken out of the world.? Who is going to minister to the saints if the Holy Spirit goes. There are man aspects to Revelation, the Ten nation confederacy, the mark of the beast, saints and any who will not receive the mark, will be be-headed, not being able to buy or sell without the mark, but even if you are be-headed for Christ you will gain eternal life. If the saints, as the pre-tribbers say, are going to be raptured where are you getting those who refuse to to take the mark from. Are there only special saints who are going to be raptured and some who are not. I dont think so. The OSAS people say everyone who is saved are caught up in the rapture. You are saying there will be saints left behind to be able to refuse the mark. someone has to be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the Anti-christ will claim to be the returned Messiah and as such will claim to be God himself.

I get confused as to the falling away....I don't understand who is going to be in that group. Maybe there isn't a solid answer, but I would sure like to hear some ideas.

Below are verses I believe support these points of view. Let me begin with Israel in Revelation chapter 12, John through inspiration of the holy spirit and first hand knowledge through a vision: To understand this chapter you must read trough the whole chapter and ask yourself several questions, which nation gave birth to Christ? The twelve stars represent the 12 tribes. This dragon having the seven heads and ten horns is revealed in chapter 17 and 18 in the book of Revelation, the book of Daniel also describes these kingdoms, from which the 10 nation confederacy will arise, Babylon, and the Roman Empire were two of the notable kingdoms but to get into that discussion will detract from answering why Israel is this woman in chapter 12, back to the issue at hand in rev 12:5 who will rule all nations with a rod of iron and was caught up to God and his throne? Has to be Jesus, right? In rev 12:6 the woman fled into the wilderness, I will give some references from Zach and other book that show that this is speaking about Israel, I will try to explain why this verse is here and its relevance beyond this reverence. Revelation|12:1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: Revelation|12:2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. Revelation|12:3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. Revelation|12:4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born. Revelation|12:5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However keep studying my brother, and you too will come to know the truth from a lie. be blessed, eric. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
