This blog posting was sent to me early Sunday morning. It fit very well with my overall lesson on Matthew 12 that I opened with some thoughts that you touched on. <br /><br />After looking at the recorded lesson, I edited it into a short stand alone piece and thought you might be interestd in seeing how I used it.<br /><br />http://vimeopro.com/discipledaily/what-on-earth-is-god-doingArlie Francishttp://www.discipledaily.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-78999223425801647892012-11-09T12:22:38.993-05:002012-11-09T12:22:38.993-05:00@scott,Mrs.C,GG-thank you all for your remarks.As ...@scott,Mrs.C,GG-thank you all for your remarks.As you said rather than debating how prophecy would unfold,we must go out to the world and preach the gospel of Jesus Christ,so that we may save many from eternal hell fire.May our discussions be for encouragement and honest assesment submitting to each other.God bless you all.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-5236237099920717372012-11-09T11:17:17.984-05:002012-11-09T11:17:17.984-05:00Hi Neo-

While I get to a point your desire to approach others with a scholarly mind-set, we have to always ask ourselves is this how Jesus handled these things?<br /><br />I am with you on the fact that we must keep enduring sound doctrine and eagerly apply this principles daily while living in a fallen world. We are to take each morsel and roll it over in our minds, hearts, and let the finished, savorily product come out across our tongue, the very way Jesus ministered to all. If we can't do that then we don't care about those at the early stages but all we care about is edifying self, instead of edifying God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit in it's proper foundation.<br /><br />I think you and I both know that these twisting of words are not what this blog is about. Let us take that knowledge to the unsaved or those who lack wisdom and insight and walk with them lovingly and gently to get them to the finish line.<br /><br />It is about the lost, the helpless, the homeless, the ones in despair, the unsaved, the scripturally and spiritually challenged. We are no better than they just because we are secure in our blessed hope. How about taking all that insight you have and let's walk together in a humbler approach to catch as many as we can in the net. After all Jesus was a great fisherman of men :)<br /><br />God Bless!!<br /><br />GG<br />GGnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-18209047366086756522012-11-09T10:43:22.512-05:002012-11-09T10:43:22.512-05:00@GG-people are prejudiced,they were trained to lov...@GG-people are prejudiced,they were trained to love certain things from their childhood.This is what is called indoctrination.To come out of this,is possible only with the help of God.We study science seriously.Do we apply atleast the same seriosness when we study scriptures?We must meditate on scriptures,not only for our daily livings and circumstances,but also so that God may reveal the future,and the secrets about the past and the present which people guided by evil spirits cover up.This is essentially natural if we have a true hunger for God,to seek the truth.Of course Jesus is the truth,but should we as christians just regurgitate what is fed to us by certain religious scholars?This is were we should have the spirit of discernment.If somebody teaches something it's our duty as believers to find scriptural support for that teaching and make sure that scriptures isn't against it.Only when we are guided by the holy spirit we can truly discern.<br />God bless you too...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-76983745490952396772012-11-09T08:31:38.454-05:002012-11-09T08:31:38.454-05:00Hi Neo~

Seems to me all this anti-christ talk can't possibly help someone who is lost. It could take away their hope and make them possibly give up and not seek the Lord.<br /><br />In a few days since the election it seems we are going backwards once again instead of taking this time to lift one another up and prepare for what is coming. Can you help me with your intent? I can't imagine this is what the Lord had in mind when he told us to look up. <br /><br />Thanks, God Bless!!<br /><br />GG<br />GGnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-67137705187228974742012-11-09T02:12:39.778-05:002012-11-09T02:12:39.778-05:00@Scott-Also read Revelation13:1 and 11,in 13:1,it ...@Scott-Also read Revelation13:1 and 11,in 13:1,it says antichrist/beast came out of "sea",in13:11 it says the 2nd beast/false prophet who did miracles on behalf of the first beast/antichrist came out of "land".Bible scholars identify this land and sea to be Jews and gentiles respectively.So the false prophet will be from one of the 12 tribes of Israel(probably from Dan) and beast/antichrist will be a gentile ,one among the 7 Roman ceasers/kings(probably Nero).<br /><br />Thus this interpretation of "land and sea" further confirms identification of mystery babylon centred in Rome.In Revelations19:20,we read both beast and the false prophet who did miracles on behalf of the beast were cast alive into lake of fire and sulfur.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-86830802499410615732012-11-09T02:09:21.882-05:002012-11-09T02:09:21.882-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-39990157189824921592012-11-09T01:42:59.074-05:002012-11-09T01:42:59.074-05:00@Scott-In revelations17:9-11,it's said that wo...@Scott-In revelations17:9-11,it's said that women-mystery babylon sits on 7 hills.Rome is the only prominent port city with 7 hills,it was from olden times a centre of religion,politics and trade.This is important because we see the merchants who traded in ships with this city stood far off weeping(Revelation18:17,18).<br /><br />At the time when Apostle John wrote the book of Revelation,Rome was ruled by Ceasers.Five of those rulers had died when John wrote the book of revelation,one was ruling at the time of writing of the book,and John says one is yet to come and will rule only for a short period(Revelations17:10,11).<br /><br />God says through John that antichrist/beast will be one among these 7 rulers,who will be ressurected at a future time by a false prophet.That false prophet will order people to build an image of one of these 7 kings(probably Nero,since his neumorology was 666) and will breath life into that image,so that the beast will be ressurected(Revelations13:15-18).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-64438715666977979482012-11-08T18:27:00.647-05:002012-11-08T18:27:00.647-05:00Neo - I disagree that Rev 17 (first paragraphs) is...Neo - I disagree that Rev 17 (first paragraphs) is specific to the location of Rome.

The entire Plan of God for the Church, AND non Believing Jewish People, is based on Judaism.<br /> The Rapture, is based on Judaism. Jesus is STILL JEWISH! IN FACT, Jewish Law will continue in Heaven!<br /> Jesus Himself told His Disciples that they (being Jewish) will Judge the Twelve Tribes of Israel!<br /><br />Matthew 19:28<br />28.And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.<br /><br /> Jesus didnt become a "Christian" when He went to the Cross.

I have heard a lot of things in my day, but I have never heard that one. And as Mrs C says, Gog-MaGog is confined to a tight radius as described in Ezekiel 38. It doesn't involve the whole world by ANY means. Again, show your scriptures to support your POV. <br /><br />Also you are confusing scriptures. Jesus did say to proclaim the gospel to the world, but that isn't a precondition for the rapture or the beginning of the Tribulation. <br /><br />However we see in Revelation 14:6 (obviously during the Tribulation:<br /><br />"Then I saw another angel flying in midair, and he had the eternal gospel to proclaim to those who live on earth - to every nation, tribe, language and people......'Fear God and give him glory because the hour of his judgment has come'"<br /><br /><br />As far as the false religion ending at Gog-MaGog (again, a POV I have never heard before) - then how do you explain the woman on the beast of Rev 17 and the description of "adultery" that has been committed with her. Surely you understand that this is a reference to spiritual adultery (aka false religion) and what do believe is the reference to the destruction of 'babylon' in Rev 18? <br /><br />Surely you understand that the AC will proclaim himself as God at the midpoint of the Trib and force worship of him.

God specifically lists the names of those that He orchestrates to be involved in this war, and He does not state that it’s a “world war”. Secondly, you state that all “false” religions will be “wiped out”, including Judaism. Judaism is NOT a “false religion”. Jesus Himself did NOT cease from being Jewish. It is the Jewish People that will rebuild their Temple during the Trib. Thirdly, the “people living on Earth” as you say, AFTER the Rapture, will NOT be the Church. The Gog-Magog war precedes the Rapture, and does not involve the “world”. It is God calling out, if you will, orchestrating the whole event, so as to destroy Gog and his followers. We the Church Brother, will be gone by the end of that war.<br /><br />God Bless!<br />Mrs.Cnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-75185213647714028262012-11-08T06:53:02.537-05:002012-11-08T06:53:02.537-05:00Diane, so nice to see you again.

Scott, thank you for your ministry and your service to the Lord. God is great!<br /><br />After Tuesday's disappointing evening and Wednesday being more like the hangover, I felt it was more important now than ever to join with you in expressing the surreal feeling that comes along with seeing strong biblical prophetic signs taking place right before our very eyes.<br /><br />Tuesday night we witnessed the final door being opened up to allow the remaining prophecies to occur and I believe(and I know I'm not the only one) it is really going to pick up speed in the days & weeks ahead. <br /><br />I can relate to an earlier comment that was said about " feeling down about seeing the country she grew up in become fundamentally transformed and turning away from God".<br /><br />I will say that it only lasted for a little less than half the day because I remembered we're in the Last Days(not that I ever forgot). Not even the voice of the Believer in Christ is going to be able to change the direction of biblical prophecy as it is occurring and what a wonderful blessing that is. <br /><br />This is strictly my feeling but it is as though Jesus is now saying to those responsible for the Apostasy in America "this is what you want, this is what you'll get". I feel that America has now literally and officially chosen it's time of judgement. <br /><br />There's one important fact though, the Lord will not allow those that chose this route to drag his Bride through the dirt right along with them and endure the punishment that <br />is soon to come for those that have blatantly rejected him.<br /><br />I do have something to add to this comment but will do in another post.<br /><br />MaranathaWilliamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-21886160835935003472012-11-08T04:28:53.890-05:002012-11-08T04:28:53.890-05:00@Scott-All false religions will be destroyed in WW...@Scott-All false religions will be destroyed in WW3 aka Gog Magog War.After the war all people living on earth will be members of one true God's Church(non feminist protestantism) atleast for namesake.Then rapture will occur.True believers will be taken to heaven in rapture and hypocrites(namesake christians) will be left behind to face the great delusion sent by God.This great delusion is the world wide restoration of pagan false religions with twice as much fervor.This will be in the first half of 7 year period after rapture.At the middle of this 7 years,the beast will break the covenant with Israel and enter the Jerusalem temple and declare himself God(thessalonians,also depicted by prophet Daniel).Then wrath of God will be poured out on all earth as depicted in book of Revelation for the second half of seven years.After this 7 year period Jesus will come back,defeat beast and his forces,execute Judgment and set up the millenial kingdom.<br />For more info visit worldharvest.blogspot.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-60822172362677390972012-11-08T04:02:24.375-05:002012-11-08T04:02:24.375-05:00@Scott-it's good to see that ,you are open to ...@Scott-it's good to see that ,you are open to disagreement and discussion.God bless you...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-51057012042991608212012-11-08T03:56:28.464-05:002012-11-08T03:56:28.464-05:00@Scott-that is your interpretation.Jesus commanded...@Scott-that is your interpretation.Jesus commanded as to go out and preach the Gospel and make disciples of every nation.And the Gospel of the kingdom will be preached to all nations ,then the end will come.<br />@David-Scott didn't remove it.I removed it inorder to better paragraph the comment.<br />God bless you all...and come Lord Jesus.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-69726325145556457702012-11-08T01:42:47.488-05:002012-11-08T01:42:47.488-05:00“Blessed by the name of God for ever and ever: for...“Blessed by the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are His: And He changeth the times and the seasons: He removeth kings, and setteth up kings: He giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know and understanding...” —Daniel 2:20-21<br />“And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and He doeth according to His Will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay His Hand, or say unto Him, What doest thou?” —Daniel 4:35Dianenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-15324314831091218952012-11-08T00:07:43.840-05:002012-11-08T00:07:43.840-05:00Julie - Nice to see you - but have no despair!
