Hi jakyll think what you will ...there will still be 7 years to finish preaching the Gospel during the trib ..remember there will be 1444,000 preaching that gospel during the last 7 years ..then the end of the end will come ..
7 years to finish what millions have tried to do in 2000 years! Yeah,ok.
ZeroKnowledge.
Notice TINY difference? With building "greater Israel" , it managed to loose more then half of its gains.
The map depicts the situation after the 6 Day War,not after Israel was empire building.By trying to hold onto these lands,not only were they in danger of breaking the agreed boundries,but they also displaced a quarter of the population of the West Bank,(200/250,00) and over 80,000 Syrians fled the Golan Heights.And almost 70,000 Arabs either fled or were 'coerced' into leaving the Gaza Strip.
As for settlements and such - it happens. You are aware that there is peace process? And that it is Middle East? It is leverage for final devision. Palestinians also build on area that is in question. Land grab before final cut. Settlement of 10 is hardly greater Israel. Or even thousand.
The peace process means nothing if Israel is still trying to take land that is beyond the borders from the original agreement.
Since Ahmadinejad got elected. And he does his share of war mongering too, don't you agree?
I do.But only because Iran has been put in a position where they need such a leader.
dooper.
When it says that the Word will be shared with all the world, it didn't say every man, woman, and child at once.
True.It just says to all nations.
As far as the cultural identity of the Jewish nation goes, I stand by may statement. Through the millennia, the Jewish nation as a group has retained their identity while their counterparts have fallen by the way.
Many cultures have remained relatively unchanged,but they usually get called backwards or primitive.
Lucid Lunacy.
Seriously... How can these people feel okay in their hearts when they are spreading the gospel of salvation when they believe only a selected few qualify? The Church preaches salvation is possible for EVERYONE, but then when cornered in this argument it's "the Bible does say a very few...".
Its true.Thats what people preach and thats what the bible says.Even Jesus taught this.
