Resurrection and Mystery Babylon
February 6th, 2010 | Book of Revelation | 4 Comments
Resurrection and Mystery Babylon go together like chocolate and peanut butter. They are inseparable in Scripture. We endeavor in this writing to show that the identity and judgment of Mystery Babylon corresponds to the time of the resurrection.
Mystery Babylon and the Last Trumpet
In Revelation 11:8-18, Mystery Babylon is identified as the city which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified. This clearly marks Jerusalem as the subject of the mystery. Jesus was crucified in Jerusalem outside the gates, (Heb. 13:12). During His ministry he stated that it could not be that a prophet perish outside ...
Can Matthew 24 Be Divided-2?
December 6th, 2008 | Eschatology | 1 Comment
In part one of this study, we looked
at two arguments offered by futurists
on the question of can Matthew 24
be divided?
In this segment we’’ll discuss another

This is nonsense. The error is compounded in failing to
properly assign the date of Revelation to a Pre-
destruction of Jerusalem time frame and an application
