    The Return of Christ

    The Return of Christ

    To me Armageddon (see Psalm 46:9) is of God's making Our suffering is both from our own making (aka disobeying God) and from sinner Satan - Job 2:4-5; James 1:13-15 Like Job suffered in his then life time, but in the next (Resurrection Day) Job will Not suffer ever again Resurrection Day is...

    In the Bible Jesus never claimed to be God but prayed to his God and that God's name be hallowed ( held as sacred, sanctified ) - John 17:6; 17:26 Jesus taught as to who to worship at John 4:23-24 Even the resurrected ascended-to-heaven Jesus still thinks he has a God over him at Revelation 3:12...

    The Return of Christ

    In Scripture Jesus is Prince of Peace, so when the powers that be are saying, " Peace and Security......" -1st Thess. 5:2-3- I suppose one could say it is the coming 'Lesser Peace' before the outbreak of the great tribulation of Rev. 7:14 Mankind will quake (as out of fear) and so does the...

    The Return of Christ

    Yes, I also think God knows best ( Father Knows Best ) The 8th king (Rev. 17:11 ) is a composite king, so to speak, so No, Not one country China nor Russia, nor etc. However, Russia does seem to act like the modern day as the King of the North - Daniel 11:13, 15, 40,44
