I notice that in commentaries on 2 Cor 2, regarding the shunned incestuous believer, the commentators always insist the man ‘must’ have repented. But to me it seems that Scripture is silent on this point, and that in verses 7-9 it is the shunning believers that are instructed, as a test, to do the repenting, or turning. Is there a verse I am unaware of that indicates the believer repented? Or does God leave this unspoken so that even sinning believers will not be forever cast away from the fellowship of the saints?

I know the Bible says our expected lifespan is 70 years (and 80 if you’re healthy) but I have noticed lately that a lot of people are living well into their 90’s. So I am wondering do you think God, and Jesus have expanded a human’s life span from 80 years of age to 100? And that the 2nd coming of Jesus is 100 years, from the date of 1948 when Israel became a nation?

I recently was listening to a very popular Christian radio call-in show and I heard them say Psalms 83 was not really a prophecy of a coming event, but rather a ” Lamentation”. I have been following your commentary on this subject, and I believe it is a soon to be fulfilled prophecy. One of the reasons they gave for their position was that Psalms 83 was written 300 years before any of the prophets, can you give your opinion on why they said that, and why they are wrong?

The word rapture is not in the Bible, therefore any teaching on the rapture is false teaching.

Re: The Mark Of The Beast. Here you are not totally correct. The Arabs call their number Hindi. If you want Arabic number in Windows you have to specify Hindi. This leads me to believe that the Arabs got their numbers from India. Hence left to right numbers in a right to left written system.

Where do we find in scripture that the celestial New Jerusalem is for the Church? The 12 gates are named for the 12 tribes of Israel and the foundation stones are the same as the stones on the High Priest’s breast plate.

When we look at the 7 feasts of Israel and their prophetic meaning, we see that Jesus has fulfilled the first 4 feasts (Passover, Unleavened breads, First Fruits and Pentecost) in the exact day. Next feast on schedule is the Feast of Trumpets which represents the Rapture and, the consistency of the Bible would imply that the rapture has to occur in the exact day of the Feast of Trumpets. Does this mean that the rapture cannot take place in other days of the year?

I have a question about the second commandment, Exodus 20:4. With my decorating scheme in my home I have carved fish, some wood, some stone, some metal, etc. Should I dispose of these items? I like them because they are pretty and fit in with the decorating. In most homes, offices, etc., you are going to find images of the likeness of Heaven, Earth and Sea. Are we not to decorate?

As I read all your End Times articles, I understand so much of what is happening now and will happen in the Middle East after the Rapture. My question is what countries will be punished in relation to ‘scattered Jews’ of old. America must be on that list. Who else?

Secondly, what is happening around the world after the Rapture? Is the whole world punished, and just the major wars occur in the Mid – East; or is war world wide? Is any counrty ‘safer’ than another ? ( ei – Judea/Petra ). I love your site. I apologize if this question has already been answered.

Are the angels who fathered the Nephilim the same ones who rebelled with Satan? Rev. 12:4 says one third of the angels were swept out of heaven and cast to Earth. The ones who fathered the Nephilim in Genesis 6:2 are being held in chains for judgment according to Jude 6 and 2 Peter 2:4. If all the rebellious angels are in prison, who has been working with Satan all this time?
