  From what I've learned so far AlltimeJeff -

  There is a chance that is true. I have faith God knows our hearts and for those sincere good ones, he will guide them. At the very least, they do stand a much better chance then the zealous who are hypocrites, ravoneous wolves inside, judgemental, etc. If true the scriptures about God a reader of hearts, it's between them. Can't judge if anybody is acceptable or not, we are all personally accountable for ourselves. If we feel must say something or do something, do it, but again leave the judging to the judge.

  I have found some reasons for the Great Tribulation the scriptures mention, which haven't heard taught or explained before. As well as being lead on some possible explanation of things, and what is to come. Not conclusive yet, but if any of it is true.....one reason for really working hard to figure this out, would be to avoid being caught in a major deception and snare.

  notverylikely - that's 'one verse' of prophecy from like 10+ scriptures. Now in 'any' of those 10+ scriptures, if you feel they are possible related, and trying to understand what it's saying, combining can help figure it out. What I posted was not to give a full revelation of anything, but to link a few major prophecies and terms associated with them.

  Just from these scriptures alone

  King of the North - could be Assyria

  Prophecies talking about locusts / flies plague - could be King of the North / Assyria

  Babylon the Great / Harlot - could be Jerusalem / Judah

  Scriptures talking about flooding over (could be referring to those of the locusts, swarm, king of the north, Assyria)

  Anyway...........this was again just to help those who feel because of how their were raised their whole life, they can only understand by looking for a religion or somebody teaching, and know that with faith and just your bible (you may need to look at interlinear and other translations too), you can learn FAR more then anyone can ever teach you.

  AlltimeJeff - those who are kicked out / released / or awaken that their whole life the religion they thought was the only way to get the truth, and taught that "like the wise eunuch it can't be understood unless taught" by a man, their 'quest' to find the truth.

  There are many who want to be teachers, get followers, etc, not knowing the bible itself may very well answer their questions and interpret itself.

  possible related

  See, those aren't prophecies. They are vague descriptions that could mean almost anything at anytime. Where is the prophecy? Its a lot of "could be" and "possible".

  They are in the 'context' of the scriptures I posted. I just posted and quoted the 'common scripture/key' to each of them in that part.

  So in Daniel 11:40, read before and after.

  Ezekiel 17:17, read before and after.

  That's another thing I quickly learned, most religions will pick 'one' scripture and make outrageous claims about it, yet in context it's obvious they are way off.

  Read the Faithful and Discreet Slave (counterpart in LUKE), where there is not only the 'evil slave', but 2 others listed as well, and in context, and the whole WT idea any trying to defend will stuttering more then porky pig.

  Yeah. I think you are on to something.

  So the context is "maybe", "could be", "it's possible"...?

  You're only a few steps away from "evidently".

  Daniel 11:40 - and the king of the north will storm with chariots and horsemen and with many ships, and he will certainly enter into the lands and flood over and pass through.....

  Hmmm....that's a good description of the "Sea Pepole" that ravaged the coast from Turkey down to Egypt, till they were defeted by Egypt and other allies in a great land and sea battle...afterward the "Sea People" seperatred and went their own way. Some historians belive a portion of them became the Philistines.....sounds like prophecy to me....

  They are vague descriptions that could mean almost anything at anytime. Where is the prophecy? Its a lot of "could be" and "possible"....notverylikley.....that's as good a comment as can be...
