   Glenn, Thanks for stopping by, but I do disagree on the following statements: I. I believe that the Bowls have Not been fulfilled as it is stated in Revelation: 16. 2. The final Tribulation period no one can predict, as you have stated this will happen in 2970-2977. How are you coming to this conclusion? 3. I disagree that the mega-churches in 1967 and the six day war (are you referring the sixth day war of Israel)? 4. As you stated at this time also is when the devil was thrown into the pit. The fall of Babylon happens in Revelation: 18. 5. And the devil, who deceived many was thrown into a lake of burning sulfur, when the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night forever and ever. Revelation: 20: 10.
   And no one knows exactly when the sixth seal will occur. This will occur after Christ has Rapture His people-up to heaven with Him. The dead in Christ will rise first, and then the ones who belongs to Him with a clean hear, mind, body and soul.

   I do believe that all prophecies have been fulfilled as the Prophets has prophesied, we are at the crossroad, for we are already at Revelation: 4.
   The return of Christ will be at any given moment, but only God the Father knows the timing.

      Norma,
      Thanks so much for you comment. I’d like to work thru your questions and concerns carefully, but first a few thoughts about the predicament that we are in. Today’s “Conventional Wisdom” regarding bible prophesy is very lacking. For centuries men have been attempting to use human wisdom to understand spiritual truth. The bible tells us that prophecies are the words of the Holy Spirit speaking thru the prophet.[2 Peter 1:19-21 below] and that no one will know God thru human wisdom[1 Cor 1:]

      GWT 2 Peter 1:19 So we regard the words of the prophets as confirmed beyond all doubt. You’re doing well by paying attention to their words. Continue to pay attention as you would to a light that shines in a dark place as you wait for day to come and the morning star to rise in your hearts. 20 First, you must understand this: No prophecy in Scripture is a matter of one’s own interpretation. 21 No prophecy ever originated from humans. Instead, it was given by the Holy Spirit as humans spoke under God’s direction.

      GWT 1 Cor 1:19 Scripture says, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise. I will reject the intelligence of intelligent people.”
      20 Where is the wise person? Where is the scholar? Where is the persuasive speaker of our time? Hasn’t God turned the wisdom of the world into nonsense? 21 The world with its wisdom was unable to recognize God in terms of his own wisdom. So God decided to use the nonsense of the Good News we speak to save those who believe.
      The only way we can approach the truth in understanding Bible prophecy is to start fresh, rejecting preconditions and earnestly seeking guidance from the Spirit!

      Norma asks: Glenn, Thanks for stopping by, but I do disagree on the following statements: I. I believe that the Bowls have Not been fulfilled as it is stated in Revelation 16

      Glenn’s Response: I certainly could be wrong on this but I believe the Jesus’ It is finished” corresponds to the It is finished declaration at the end of the Bowls.
      fully explained here:

      Norma asks: 2. The final Tribulation period no one can predict, as you have stated this will happen in 2970-2977. How are you coming to this conclusion?
      Glenn’s response: The translation differ on this, but KJV says no one will know the day or the hour. I submit that the year is knowable. While Daniel was rewarded for properly understanding and accepting his place in prophesy, the Jews of Jesus time failed to recognize their messiah and suffered for it. Since the devil will be released for a little while at the end of the millennium[Rev 20 1-3], that places the final tribulation after the millennial reign of Christ. More details are posted here:

      Norma asks: 3. I disagree that the mega-churches in 1967 and the six day war (are you referring the sixth day war of Israel)?

      Glenn’s response: Yes, The number of nations assembling against Israel, the extent of this victory, the discrepancy in the numbers of casualties led me to believe that the 6 day war was the one mentioned in Rev 19:19.

      Norma asks: 4. As you stated at this time also is when the devil was thrown into the pit. The fall of Babylon happens in Revelation: 18.

      Glenn’s response: I believe that revelations jumps around, but the Bible gives you sufficient indicators to understand what is happening.

      Norma asks: 5. And the devil, who deceived many was thrown into a lake of burning sulfur, when the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night forever and ever. Revelation: 20: 10.
      And no one knows exactly when the sixth seal will occur. This will occur after Christ has Rapture His people-up to heaven with Him. The dead in Christ will rise first, and then the ones who belongs to Him with a clean hear, mind, body and soul.

      Glenn’s response: This passage is talking about the last time when the devil is permanently cast in the lake of burning sulfer at the end of the final tribulation, the seventh trumpet and the New Jerusalem.

      Norma asks: I do believe that all prophecies have been fulfilled as the Prophets has prophesied, we are at the crossroad, for we are already at Revelation: 4.
      The return of Christ will be at any given moment, but only God the Father knows the timing.
      Glenn’s response: I don’t think we are there yet, but let’s keep pushing forward, running the race, seeking and serving God thru the power of his Holy Spirit! Take a quick look at the” Living as Old as Tree’s” passage:

      GWT Is 65:19I will rejoice over Jerusalem
      and take delight in my people;
      the sound of weeping and of crying
      will be heard in it no more.
      20“Never again will there be in it
      an infant who lives but a few days,
      or an old man who does not live out his years;
      he who dies at a hundred
      will be thought a mere youth;
      he who fails to reacha a hundred
      will be considered accursed.
      21They will build houses and dwell in them;
      they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit.
      22No longer will they build houses and others live in them,
      or plant and others eat.
      For as the days of a tree,
      so will be the days of my people;
      my chosen ones will long enjoy
      the works of their hands.
      23They will not toil in vain
      or bear children doomed to misfortune;
      for they will be a people blessed by the Lord,
      they and their descendants with them.

      This passage is not talking about heaven. These folks still live and die, have descendants, and work with their hands; but they live as long as trees, no infants will die or be born to misfortune! This is a prophecy of Isaiah. The folks before Moses living 300 years don’t apply! This is a promise for the millennial reign!
      Thanks again for your great questions!
      May God Bless You and Your Ministry
      Glenn

   Obama’s desire to repeal “Don’t ask, don’t tell” can actually help to fulfill the “days of Lot” (Luke 17, cf. Gen. 19), the fulfillment of which will hurry up the return of the Heavenly Commander-in-Chief who will make all things straight (pun intended)! Interesting Google articles include “Obama Supports Public Depravity,” “Obama Avoids Bible Verses,” “Separation of Raunch and State” and “David Letterman’s Hate Etc.” – required reading for the “Obama 101″ course.
   PS – You’re invited to use these new pro-life slogans: “Unborn babies should have the right to keep and bear arms – and legs and ears and eyes etc.!” and “Unborn babies should have the same right to be born alive that abortionists had!”

      Dorothy,
      Thanks for you thoughts. All these are signs of the times, the time of God’s wrath, the day of his indignation. If my interpretations are correct, the time is very short, somewhere between 24 and 36 months away!

      http://thebigpicmin.wordpress.com/2010/01/16/2009/03/15/2012-in-bible-prophesy/

      I differ from many. I believe that that this day of the Lord’s wrath marks the beginning of the millenium, not the beginning of the final tribulation!

      God Bless
      Glenn

      Dorothy,

      Your question about the implications of ‘don’t ask don’t tell’ is intriguing. I think that changes to this policy need to address the rights of the men and women who are willing to sacrifice their lives in the defense of our nation.

      I don’t think it is fair to presume that our service men would choose to continue if we adopt a policy that diverts significantly from the word of God.

      I think that adoption of this policy would require that each serviceman and woman be offered an option to leave without harm to their accumulated retirement and benefits package. This is clearly a breach of contract on the part of the employer, not the employee!

      Perhaps the economics implications of this could stay off this attack, this attempt to move the old boundary markers!

      God Bless

      Lara,
      My sister helped me translate your comment:
      ‘Funny, I had not thought that’s really how it is. Funny World.’

      I agree, just a few years ago, if I had come across my own web site I probably wouldn’t have “gotten it”.

      Thanks for your comment. Please trust me when I say that God is not asking for more seminary students, he just wants real seekers, folks who understand that the created thing is not greater than their creator.

      Annabel,
      Thanks for your comment – My sisters translation:

      ‘About your cool posting, but can you be a bit more detailed the next time’

      I was trying to use this post to summarize, perhaps gather together many specifics. I know I have a problem with jumping around too much. I’ll try to detail thing better in the future.

      Looking back I’m guessing that I started to lose you when I discussed “our fallen church systems” and called them Antichrist. This post attempts to describe this problem.

      God Bless
      Glenn
