How is it that you say the Ezekiel 38-39 war happens before the tribulation period? In Ezekiel 39:7 God says he is in the land of Israel after this war . The only time Jesus is in Israel physically is in the battle of Armageddon.

I recently went a few rounds with some pretty hardcore atheists, and I quickly discovered that trying to refer to Scripture was absolutely useless because their position is that the Gospels were written by a committee who simply scoured the OT for various prophecies. Then they patched it together and then presented the myth of Jesus. What are the most effective ways to counter this? All I could think of off hand was that utterly squelching Christianity would have been as easy as falling off a log in the face of such silliness. What else could one say to this?

When talking about salvation what are the absolutes one has to believe to be saved?

First of all I think your website is excellent and you are doing a great job. I’ve been doing some research on the Book of Mark in an effort to learn the following. Who was the author, who was the author speaking to and when was it written? Your response will be greatly appreciated.

Is it possible for you to give some kind of approximation of when you think the Battle of Ezekiel 38/39 will start? It seems like all the factors are falling into place. Haven’t huge amounts of gas and oil been found in Israel and wouldn’t this be motivation for Russia to start this battle? I’m wondering also about the other battles involving Damascus. Aren’t these supposed to happen before the battle of Ezekiel? Thanks so much for all the work you put into your website.

I would like to hear your thoughts on Genesis 3:22. What does God mean in this verse? How did we become like “Them”, and what does it mean to know good and evil? Also, please explain the concept of man eating from the Garden’s Tree of Life and living forever after sinning? Did this mean that Adam would have circumvented the Redemptive Plan?

In our Sunday morning Bible study we are looking at the two witnesses in Revelation and trying to figure out when they witnessed. Some of our group think that they’re here for the first 3 1/2 years, some the last 3 1/2 years, and I think that they’re in the middle, overlapping both the beginning and the end because God does things in 3s. So much happens both before and after the witnesses that I just can’t see how they fit anywhere else. Your input on the subject would be very appreciated. God has blessed you with an astuteness of the Bible and blessed us with the fact that you share what you know with us.

I have had several major trials in my life recently. In each case I sought the Lord with much prayer as well as tears. In each case my worst fears came to be. My question is how do I pray in faith not wavering. The only faith I have left is Jesus died for my sins, and sometimes I think I wouldn’t be shocked if that turned out not to be true. Prayer has become a matter of hope with little faith when I even bother to pray. Its hard to line up what I believe with actual life.

This is a question which has been on my mind for years and is blocking my concentration on you article on The Nephilim. So here it is. If Noah’s line was the only uncontaminated line left on earth before the flood, where did the wives of the sons of Noah come from? Why weren’t they contaminated, too?

After the rapture and during the Great Tribulation and Millennium, what will be happening here in the U.S? I am assuming the Jews left behind from the rapture will make their way to Israel once they see Israel win the Battle of Ezekiel 38 by God’s hand. With the economy failing , I wonder if some Jews in the U.S will even be able to afford to get over there, and then to flee when the abomination that causes desolation of the temple occurs. I wonder what becomes of nonbelievers (and non-Jews I should say) that live in the U.S. Some of them could possibly still attain salvation, correct? I understand that after the rapture and the church is gone, God is dealing with Israel only. I just don’t know where this leaves the United States of America , gentiles and Jews alike.
