When John saw the Great Red Dragon of Rev. 12:3 having Seven Heads and Ten Horns and Seven Crowns upon his Heads, which ONE of the 7 Heads were the 10 Horns attached to?

Like you, I believe that the rapture is a number based event rather than a date based one. With that in mind is there any indication in all the books of the Bible as to what that number might be? Could the 24 elders, representing the raptured church in the book of Revelation 4:4 , give us a clue as to the final number of believers? Or is there another meaning attached to this number of elders?

A friend and I were discussing the Rapture and I said I believe in the Pre-Trib Rapture and He said He believes in the Pre-Wrath Rapture. What’s the difference?

My husband and I have been married for 5 years now. Throughout these five years my husband has participated in cybersex and views porn. When I confront him, he denies it and becomes very angry with me. He says as Christians we fall all the time but we just need to get back up and ask God for forgiveness. Am I obligated to stay married to him? He promises to stop all the time but he never does. This is ruining my life.

Psalm 104:6-9, which seems to describe the Creation, says that after land was formed water would never again cover the Earth . This is a huge problem for people that believe the Genesis Flood was global. If have no problem believing that the Genesis flood was global, I just won’t until this contradiction can be resolved. So my question is how do you resolve this contradiction?

I read from 1 Cor 15:23 that there is an order to the resurrection. The first being Christ and then those who belong to Christ at His Second Coming. If so, then the rapture and resurrection of those who belong to Christ as depicted in 1 Thess 4 is supposed to happen at His Second Coming and not before that. Also, when Christ is to deliver us from the wrath to come, can it possibly mean the lake of fire (which is after the Second Coming and judgments) and not the wrath of the Lamb and of God depicted from Rev 6-15?

How long do you think it will take to construct the temple once Israel decides they need one? I know there is some preparation underway even now, but won’t it take at least a year or two or three to construct such a grand structure? If they don’t begin construction until the beginning of the 70th week, it could be close to the middle of that week before it is completed. Will the Jews be able to use the temple before the Anti-Christ defiles it?

You replied to a reader’s question about Tribulation events concerning the sun, and said that the sun would go super nova which is what will scorch those on the earth during that time. When I read Psalm 72, part of which reads” He will endure as long as the sun, as long as the moon, through all generations”, this seems to contradict your sun dying scenario. If at some point all things will be burnt up on earth which I do believe, the timing of the sun scorching during the Tribulation seems out of sync. I definitely believe the New Jerusalem will light the earth, but can you explain why you think the sun will be totally destroyed?

I have always wondered if Jesus made an oblique reference to the Rapture during the Olivet Discourse in Mt. 24.28 and Luke 17:37. His statement about “where the body is, there the eagles gather” appears to be a direct reply to the disciples’ question about the whereabouts of the woman grinding grain who was taken (Lk 17.35). That verse’s parallel is ordered differently in Matthew (Mt 24.41), and no interjected question is mentioned, so the connection may be less apparent in Matthew. I have never been very satisfied with other explanations of Jesus’ remark about bodies and vultures, and I would like to think He was not totally silent about the Rapture in the Olivet context, even if He left it for Paul to tell us the mystery.

I have been studying the emergent/friendly seeker churches and the chrislam churches and what they are doing. The pastors who teach this tripe are certainly in trouble for teachers are judged more harshly. In Galatians 1:9 Paul said that anyone who preaches a different gospel from the one he preached let him be eternally condemned. Does this mean they can lose their salvation?
