Bible Discussion Thread

Rapture discussion (continued).

Continuing my last post; there are other reasons such as what appears to be a war of Psalm 83 which has surrounding nations not in the Ezekiel 38 war. The land of unwalled villages of Ezekiel 38:11 shows what MAY come from the confirming of a peace agreement such as planned in the Abrahamic accords. Clearly Israel is well protected with walls and not in a position where it is secure in the land; such would have to be the case AFTER there is relief from the Palestinian and other nearby threats.

In any event; I have warned people many times about falling away after predicted dates don't come to pass. There are always people obsessed with theorizing such things who aren't making a concerted effort to fulfill the Great Commission and support those with all sorts of conspiracy theories that aren't factually based; dreams and visions that aren't rebuked when they are proven false; etc. Then there are those who seem to be unaware of the nearness of the hour who are in positions of leadership who are also not being discerning.

If He tarries say even another 5 or 6 years we can safely throw out ALL the theories as to who the Antichrist is; as well as ALL the plans these geriatric powers that be who are running things in the world today; many are so old they won't be around by then. That will mean an entirely new plan for world domination will have to come; albeit the same things such as peace with Israel and all the other goals of the powers that be will still be gaining a stranglehold on the world with religious unity; economic ontrol and military threats. I would say that Antichrist will gain his popularity as appearing to be a revolutionary and stand up with oratorical skills we simply don't see with the current establishment today. Those who have patiently been waiting can and will endure if they are truly God's chilren; we of course will see increasing tragedies or birth pains; at least precursors to the ones to come.
