Re: ” Whose Decision Is It?”. Since all time is known to God, then He knows who will not be saved. God does not have to let ‘these persons’ lives play out , since He already knows their outcome and their rejection of Him. It seems almost cruel to let people be born and live for 70-90 years – only to be doomed for eternity. Your answer that God allows them to “not choose” on their own is not an answer in my opinion. Could you explain your reasoning to me better please? It almost seems like you are saying that God will let them “hang themselves” by their own choice , so He can say – See it was their choice , not mine.

I’ve been encountering a new (to me) “twist” in the pretrib Rapture camp. As a pre-tribber myself, I was surprised and dismayed by this idea. It is the notion that–in order to take part in the pre-trib Rapture, a believer in Christ must believe in the Rapture itself. Proponents claim isn’t enough to simply believe in the shed blood of Christ for the forgiveness of sins, we must be pre-trib, and sufficiently “watchful” in order to be raptured or else we’ll be left behind. Have you encountered this?

What about this Obama Health Care Program – I mean, is he paving way for Anti Christ like John the Baptist paved way for Christ? Is the said “chip” really the Mark of the Beast?

While reading the posting on Sinners in the Millennium, a question came to me about all those who would increasingly sin during that period. I don’t understand how that can be while Jesus is here ruling with a rod of iron. Can you please elucidate?

Already we’re being told that Pope Francis is Peter the Roman (Petrus Romanus). Is there a consensus about this among prophecy scholars? Or is it too soon to know for sure?

Will believers who populate the New Earth be able to sin? I know the 2nd generation will (they’re not technically believers until they accept Salvation, just like the rest of us), but how about the 1st generation? The ones who were left on Earth at the start of the Millennium?

What if anything does the new pope have to do with Bible prophecy?

I have been reading your articles for some time on several other sites that post them and wanted to know if you believe Christ will return in the rapture before the real chaos and trouble begin, or if we will be here for it? Is there any way we can know this?

I have a question regarding the Philadelphian church. Verse 12 is talking about the overcomers, and saying that they will be made a pillar in the temple of my God and shall go no more out. This kind of sounds like the Saints in the new Jerusalem (Church) will stay in the New Jerusalem. I have always thought that the Church could visit earth, or go where ever they wanted to go in their glorified body.

Given that Jesus’ ministry was 3 1/2 years long and then He died, was buried and rose again during the Spring feasts, isn’t it likely that He partially fulfilled the Feast of Tabernacles (God lives with us)?
