    I think god is unable to help people these days just because devils are ruling god these days. As per an Indian Philosopher it happens before this universe ends. Are the devils really ruling god?

              Have you Always Held a Grandiose Point of View or do you Genuinely Believe you are Better morally than others? hmm

              Did you see what the laborers did in the sinks at the Games village? 
              - Alot of Moral Fibre was left splattered all over the athlete's sleeping quarters and in their handbasins!! sad

              {moral fabric is crumbling that too in rapid pace}
              - A bit like the Con job that the Indian Government pulled to get the Commonwealth Games... Much of the construction is crumbling as well... hmm

      What is up with all these questions around here about God being wimpy and such?!

      No, the devils do not rule God.
      But the devil certainly does "rule" a lot of people.

          You're right that the moral fabric of society is crumbling.
          But it isn't because God is helpless.  It's because mankind is sinful.

            Very true Brenda. It seems that people in the modern world believe less and less in the devine. They are content to question God and not recieving an answer through white noise or whatever they expect, they dismiss him. Should we consider this a sign of the times? The truth is, as I travel the highways of our land, I see more and more signs of his presence. Its difficult for non-believers to accept such signs, but common and clear for those who believe. Remember, God is with us. Christ loves us and stands by us through the heartaches of mortal life. Brenda, keep travelers in your prayers, God bless you in your endeavors.

            God Bless those who pray for them.

        The devil is just a shadow in the human psyche, you know that sort that turn from ugly old hags to beautiful enchantresses when you recognize that it is an aspect of the psyche you are distorting with your rejection.

        example. Stealing, people who steal are distorting the good desire to care for oneself. Killing, killing is a distortion of self protection. Self protection is not evil but the narrowness of the approach of doing it becomes a shadow. Once you are able to recognize the good intent, then the cause for killing because a cause for living better. 

        HAVEN'T YOU GUYS LEARNED ANYTHING FROM BEDAZZLED? the good and the bad work together to create a tension for the growth of the human consciousness/spirit.

      I don't think so!

         Maybe God is sitting back some and watching until the 42 months is finished that the beast was given to Blaspheme all that it can.

        But when the 42 months is over he is goina come our swinging.

        At least that is what I'm expecting to see happen.

          Even by using the old standard that is taught in church, that a day on earth is as a year in prophesy  ,,which I believe is wrong!!   
             Would that be sometimes???  Or is a day  ALWAYS as a year??
             If it is ? .. It is !!
             If it doesn't  it doesn't,
             All the time.
             
             In 538 BC  Gabriel told Daniel that in 62 weeks they are going to kill the Messiah!
            568 years later they did !! 
            If the above is true...  A day = approx 1.3 of our years

             42 months would be approx 1650 of our years.
                            OR     
             If a day ia as a year ...  42 months is 1260 years.

             I prophet time is different that earth time ?
             It is DIFFERENT ALL the TIME !

             YES !!   The forty two months began a long time ago!

              It is my opinion that consistency is a requirement in life if we want to achieve a desired purpose.

                 If we want to understand prophesy we have to be consistent in our Logical processes.

                As I've said many times... I think that this time comparison is essential for understanding prophesy.

                And when we understand the prophesy we understand the rest of scripture  differently.

                It must be right from childhood. And to understand at this age I must do a degree in prophesy.

                  I think that you have to study the prophesy themselves, and not study other peoples interpretations.

                     Studying other peoples interpretations will only lead you in circles.

                     As you said ..  "It must be right from childhood". 
                  Ya gotta build a solid foundation that can not be changed to conform to interpretations of things that were written much later.

                    Accept the word of the earliest prophesy and build your own belief system upon that.

                I do not.
                According to the Bible, when Jesus comes back, it's a done deal, no second chances, it will be the end of the world.
                The time to choose Him is while you're alive.  The dead cannot choose anything.

    No. He was kicked out of heaven trying to dethrone GOD which is to rule over GOD. The coup failed. He then roam the universe to see where he could rule over and settled on with the earth. You are seeing the results of him ruling over the earth now. Mankind has a free will to kick him out of their lives here on the earth like GOD did in heaven along with the other angels that joined him. How do you kick the devil and his workers out of your life? This is how you do it on the earth where you are living now. By being love being peace being free. I am being love peace free in my own life and get the results of the devil being kicked out of my life for good like GOD kicked him out of heaven. The devil can not stand in the presence of love peace free. However he will stick around you and see if he can bring you to his side. He does that to me even though he knows he does not have a chance in hell with me because of my choose moment by moment. LOVE PEACE FREE is how you overcome and kick the devil and his workers out of your life. Just know that he will hang around you to wear you down and bring you to his side but he can not make you to go to his side. I am a witness to this because I live this every moment of every day of my life. Thank you. Go in peace.

    That beast is given 42 months that it will commit blasphemy.
    (approx 1650 years)  or (1260 years)
      Satan gives his power and his seat to that beast.
      Satan is then bound in the pit for 1000 years,

      After the 1000 years are finished he will be released for a little season at which time he will gather the kings of the earth to the great battle.  (Rev. 20:8)
      Four seasons in a year.   i/4 of a year, so 13 prophetic weeks or 119 of our years.   

       After he is released the sixth vial is poured out and the Dragon, Beast and False prophet is seen in the dried up river bed of the Euphrates river.  Spirits come out of their mouths to gather the kings of the earth together for battle.
    (Rev 16:12 and 13)

      The battle mentioned in these two chapters are the same battle.

      That is the only way that prophesy seems to maintains any form of consistency;  at least in my opinion.

     
       I have to leave to go give a home repair estimate,
    back later.

        Jeramiposted 13 years agoin reply to this

        I would suggest you begin ...  in the beginning ...        of prophesy.
         
          It is difficult to pinpoint the "First" prophetic message ..
        so lets start with Isaiah 44.  (Approx 700 BC)

           Isaiah 44:28 "that says of Cyrus , he is my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure, even saying to Jerusalem, thou SHALT be BUILT ... "
            This is in reference to Daniel 9:25

            Then Jeremiah  ( 625 to 605 BC)
              Jerusalem shall serve the king of Babylon for 70 years.
              Daniel 2 7 & 8 ...  There will be four kingdoms given dominion over that Hebrew Nation.
              Daniel 9:23  THE commandment has COME forth
              Daniel 9:25  Know therefore and understand that from the time the commandment goes forth to build Jerusalem unto Messiah the Prince shall be 69 weeks.
              Daniel 9:27  It shall be 62 weeks and then they will kill the Messiah.
              This  IS  a time line comparison that everyone wants to ignore !    WHY?

             And when we read Matthew chapter 24 we should read chapter 23 first and then continue on into chapter 24.

            When we do this we receive a different understanding of scripture than the one we learn by reading any of the many books of interpretations.

          We are to read it ourselves and develop our own unhindered interpretation.
