Peace, in Scripture: not between men! 9Nov2024

  •  1 Thess. 5: ALL
  • Ps. 58:  ALL
  • Ps. 119:161 - 165
  • John 16:1 - 7
    • Heb. 4:9 - 15

  • John 16:27 - E
  • Ps. 37:  ALL
  • Ps. 140:  ALL
Notes:
  1.  antisemitism:  from 70AD til now:  Matt. 24:9
  2. NOT saved, yet!  Matt. 24:13 & 1 Peter 1:9
  3. Tribulation:  Christ said it would begin for Israel  Matt. 24:21
  4. 1 Taken vs 1 left:  see Ps. 37:9, 38-39
  5. There is no 'satan'!  Ps. 140:1, (the whole chapter, even).  Why does David not say Satan is persecuting him.  And, with Scriptural understanding, ("all Scripture testifies of ME, (Christ)"), who persecuted Him?  Not satan; 
  6. MAN;  Matt. 24:4   -->  Man is the deceiver!  
  7. Serpent == MAN.  Ps. 58:4
  8.  "...Not appointed to wrath..."   Does not mean protection from a coming Judgement on the earth, i.e., a 'rapture'.  Instead, Prov. 18:10 & Matt. 10:28, says Evil is taken, not 'the saved'.
