You mean "not ever" don't you? What rules does scripture say the future Gentile nations will live under?

Some think Paul preached a gospel that was not known in the OT. But what they mean by "written for us but not to us" is akin to Noah being told to build an ark. We can glean from the story that YHWH is the Most High God, thus the one we should place our faith in; but that "build an ark" part...

QUESTION: When the risen Lord Jesus Christ commissioned the gospel Paul was to preach to the whole world, was there any mention it was supposed to be only temporary?

That's gonna make some have to change their viewpoint that the Church is not mentioned in Revelation.

That's because the verse says the beast hates the whore. not that the whore hates the beast. If the beast does not worship YHWH, the beast demands worship of himself.

Jerusalem is the city named as the killer of prophets. The NT reveals that there are no prophets that were killed apart from Jerusalem. Luke 13:33-34 ESV (33) Nevertheless, I must go on my way today and tomorrow and the day following, for it cannot be that a prophet should perish away from...

That's me. 🌟 Been waiting for years for someone to catch up to my level of brilliance.

Revelation 13:18 KJV (18) Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. G5585 Thayer Definition: 1) to count with pebbles, to compute, calculate, reckon 2) to give one’s vote by...

Didn't have time before, but I'll look at it now.

Yeah, I don't even care if the 144,000 are only Jews or not when it comes to the big picture. And the big picture is that God is going to reunite the whole world to Himself. I view Israel to be a mini version of what God does for the whole world. But Dan being completely absent is strange...

Got a link?

Two is all we need (where two or more are gathered in my name). But more are welcome. We already have multiple perspectives expressed in this thread. Let's roll on and find some more.

I invited her here. I want to study with her because she is gung-ho about bible study and likes to explore other perspectives.

ROFL! Arial is a wildcat that can dish it out too! She'll fit right in with the crowd that likes to be snitty to someone who is not on the same level as they are with logic, reasoning, common sense, understanding, bible knowledge, etc etc etc ........ It's very popular. But just so you know...

Probably so. But none of us know everything an "angel" is literally composed of, or what they all literally look like, or what they all literally do all day long. OK, how do you arrive at the conclusion that when Revelation uses the word "wind", it is always literal wind? Perhaps. So the beast...

Don't leave on account of them. You don't have to respond to any of them. I want to hear your perspectives.

I would love to hear your analysis. I recently read a scholar who thinks the reason a count number of the tribes is associated with taking a census count of the tribes for military personal available. Mainly because counting the people was prohibited except when analyzing how many men were...

I hear ya. It is very interesting to read all the theories on how Solomon was a type of the antichirst. I've even heard that the Song of Solomon does as well. Mainly because the woman seems to prefer her true love, the shepherd, rather than give into the wooing and flattery of the King. I find...

That's an interesting theory I know of as well. But does Solomon's name equal 666? Revelation 13:17 ESV (17) so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. And who would have the worse crime, Solomon or Dan? It's no so plain.

Yes, I am aware of the gematria theory. I just don't think Nero did everything associated with what the beast does. And there is the additional confusion of the dating of Revelation. Either way, Nero was dead before 70 AD so he couldn't have anything to do with the destruction of the temple...
