Who are the seven heads of Revelation 17?
phkrause reacted to Pickle for a topic
What? We have Jews accusing the Jews of killing their Messiah. What's the problem? John 5:16 And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day. John 5:18 Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God. John 7:1 After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him. So the Jews sought to kill Jesus. Acts 2:36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ. And Peter says they succeeded. 1 Thessalonians 2:14-15 For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God which in Judaea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews: Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men: And Paul says they succeeded too. Leviticus 26:40-41 If they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, with their trespass which they trespassed against me, and that also they have walked contrary unto me; And that I also have walked contrary unto them, and have brought them into the land of their enemies; if then their uncircumcised hearts be humbled, and they then accept of the punishment of their iniquity: I'm certain you can see the implications. Acknowledging the sin and accepting the punishment is a divine condition for restoration. In reality, we all are Christ killers (Ps. 2:1-2; Acts 4:25-28). However, between Caiaphas and Pilate, Caiaphas had "the greater sin" (Jn. 19:11).1 point -

But consider that you are in effect asking readers to reject what they read in the Bible regarding the age of the earth. In that context, to refuse to give any evidence to support your claim is unreasonable.1 point -

Is Islam part of Christianity? Answer: No The anti-Christ comes from within Christianity. Acts 29:28 Be on guard for yourselves and for all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood. 29 I know that after my departure savage wolves (wolves in sheep's clothing) will come in among you, not sparing the flock; 30 and from among your own selves men will arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them. Phil 3:1 Finally, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things again is no trouble to me, and it is a safeguard for you. 2 Beware of the dogs (wolves in sheep's clothing), beware of the evil workers, beware of the false circumcision; 3 for we are the true circumcision, who worship in the Spirit of God and glory in Christ Jesus and put no confidence in the flesh.... 2 Timothy 4:3 "For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires; 4 and will turn away their ears from the truth, and will turn aside to myths." 2 Thess 2:3 Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way. For that day (the second coming, see verse 1) will not come unless the apostasy comes first and the man of sin is revealed, the son of destruction. 4 He opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he sits in God’s sanctuary, displaying that he himself is God. Heb 6:4 For it is impossible to restore again to repentance those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5 and have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come, 6 if they then commit apostasy, since they crucify the Son of God on their own account and hold him up to contempt. The apostasy is to come from within the Christian Church.1 point -

I watched this whole video. From an historicist traditional SDA view, it was excellent. However, Pastor Wohlberg lost me when he said that the 5th trumpet was fulfilled in the 7th - 9th century - over 1200 years ago. He then stated that the Ottoman Empire ended in 1840. Historians pretty much universally agree that the Ottoman Empire began to fall apart in 1918, when the Ottomans signed a treaty with the Allied forces; and ended in 1923 when the Republic of Turkey was declared in Oct. 1923. These inaccuracies dissuaded me from buying his story. He left out a lot of stuff between Rev. 9 and rev. 11; like the army of 200,000,000, the fact that a third of mankind was indeed NOT killed, and the supernatural ministry of the Two Witnesses, to name a few. Why did he leave this stuff out? Because it did not fit the scenario he was presenting. Nonetheless, it was a good sermon; and he and others who follow and support his ministry are entitled to their opinions. While what Pastor Wohlberg presented may not (IMO) be a fulfillment of prophecy, it certainly is a good application.1 point -
Are the three Angels' Messages Dead or Alive?
hch reacted to Robert for a topic
The work which the church has failed to do in a time of peace and prosperity she will have to do in a terrible crisis under most discouraging, forbidding circumstances. The warnings that worldly conformity has silenced or withheld must be given under the fiercest opposition from enemies of the faith. And at that time the superficial, conservative class, whose influence has steadily retarded the progress of the work, will renounce the faith and take their stand with its avowed enemies, toward whom their sympathies have long been tending. These apostates will then manifest the most bitter enmity, doing all in their power to oppress and malign their former brethren and to excite indignation against them. This day is just before us. [TESTIMONIES FOR THE CHURCH, VOL. 5, PAGE 463] What is the work of the church? Is it not to present the three angel's message?1 point -

AMEN! Thanks for that link. That has to be the best talk of how it all comes together at the "END" that I have ever heard. This is not new by any means. Doug Batchelor has mentioned this in his latest series of talks!! Maurice Berry has a whole weekend of sermons on this subject. I could mention others, but I'll just leave it with these two.1 point -

Naomi reacted to M. T. Cross for a topic
I think my Gods likely find human politics petty and boring and see a much bigger picture than that. They're Gods, race seems to relevant I doubt they go hungry, but again I suspect wealth and its trappings effect them much I don't really think that any God belongs to any denomination. They are way to smart for that. I think how humans define God is influenced by politics,culture, and social status, I doubt Gods define themselves by that.1 point -
