Re: Daniel 11:40-45 - "King of the North" is Pompey the Great

Is this noted in any commentaries on Daniel? Does Steve mention this or else propose a different idea? Sorry. I'm lazy. Pompey the Great was not proposed as being this "king of the north" in any commentaries I have reviewed yet. And I did listen to Steve's coverage of this section of his studies on...

Daniel 11:40-45 - "King of the North" is Pompey the Great

This section of Daniel 11 has proved to be an elusive topic as to who this "King of the North" actually is. Anyone reading the extensive record of Pompey the Great and his military exploits should be able to make the connection to the activities of this "King of the North" in Daniel 11:41-45. It is ...

Re: Challenge -- Write Like Paul

Paul used run-on sentences too much. He was not a rhetorician. For writing style, I would have to agree with you on the part about the run-on sentence structure. Or perhaps we should lay the responsibility for that on the translators who inserted the punctuation? I would also agree on agnp's observ...

Re: 1 Corinthians 15:24-28 (handing kingdom back to God)

Taking the sense of this verse in a somewhat different direction than it is usually interpreted... The sense in which Christ "delivers up the kingdom to God" is NOT to be understood as a time of Christ's surrender and abdication of His kingdom authority. We know from other texts that His kingdom was...

Re: Ravi Zacharias Cancer

If Ravi Zacharias was a giant, then “How are the mighty fallen!” Christ once said that “there is nothing hidden that shall not be made known.” If the evidence brought out concerning Ravi Zacharias is credible, (and to date it appears to be), then this “giant” who apparently did not change his practi...

Re: The False Prophet by Ellis Skolfield

Hey Steve7150, That particular “*THIS* WICKED generation” can’t possibly be referring in a generic sense to “man’s last condition”. Look at the complete context of Matt. 12:38-45. Christ was speaking to the scribes and Pharisees - that evil “generation of vipers” who had just asked Him for a sign. H...

Re: The False Prophet by Ellis Skolfield

You’re right, Steve7150, that Jesus didn’t necessarily call this the GREATEST of all tribulations ever. What He DID say was that there had never been and would never again at any time in humanity’s future be the PARTICULAR KIND of tribulation like that of the “great tribulation” period immediately p...

Re: The False Prophet by Ellis Skolfield

Hey again Steve7150, There’s one very glaring problem with Scolfield identifying the great tribulation period with the ENTIRE church age. In Matthew 24:21, Jesus said that this greatest of tribulation periods would never again be equaled or surpassed at any time in history AFTER that great tribulati...

Re: The False Prophet by Ellis Skolfield

You’re right, steve7150, that if Preterists think Revelation was written in the middle of the 60’s, this poses a problem when we look at the prosperous Laodicean church as then described in Rev. 2:17. “I am rich and increased with goods, and have need of nothing...” couldn’t possibly describe a city...
