PROPHECY: BIBLE PROPHECY-DoWeKnow studies BIBLE PROPHECY by looking at Old Testament Prophecy and New Testament Prophecy-seeing how they relate to today's churches and seeing how many of today's churches are fast fulfilling those Biblical prophecies, especially the prophecies concerning the end-time apostate churches.

BARNEY WROTE:

Shalom,

 

Here is the original Greek of Rev. 17:9 from the Greek Textus Recptus:

 

Rev 17:9

Rev. 17:9
Here the mind having wisdom.  The Seven Heads Mountains are Seven, where the Woman sits upon
THEM.   αυτων846 P-GPN  There greek word ‘autos’ used here for where the Woman sits (MOUNTAINS) is a - pronoun PLURAL genitive neuter.  

 

The Greek Textus Receptus clearly states that the Woman sits upon ALL 7 Mountains (Kingdoms) and NOT just merely upon some other part of the Beast (its back, one head, etc.).

 

Please note if we loose the understanding above of the Woman sitting upon ALL 7 ‘former’ (by the time of his appearance) Kingdoms we will NOT be able to correctly ‘identify’ who the WHORE/Harlot actually is.

 

Until His Trumpet Sounds,

B'ANN WROTE:

I am often amazed at the great lengths we go to trying to prove a point with the Bible.  It consumes our time, our thoughts, and our dedication.  This is Satan's smoke screen to keep us from doing the true call of the Bible. If we feel that we have a superior understanding, interpretation, or message from the Holy Scriptures; then, we have to be careful that we haven't entered into "prideful boasting."   This is why we named this website DOWEKNOW--to be a constant reminder that maybe we need to rethink what we think we know. WeDoKnow that the only thing that we should be constantly keeping in front of the world is John 3:16!  Paul says:

Galatians 6:
14May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

Stop spending your time proving or disproving certain beliefs about the Bible.  I can see that you are a very learned person, and I do respect intellect; however, replace your proving of "dogmas and creeds and ideas" with the simple message of John 3:16 and "do" the Word instead of trying to "dissect" it.  The true message of the Bible is as humble and simple as the birth of Christ; as powerful as His death on the cross, and as everlasting as His own resurrection. As a strong reminder...

John 3:
   16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Mark 4

   1And he began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he entered into a ship, and sat in the sea; and the whole multitude was by the sea on the land.

   2And he taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his doctrine,

   3Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:

   4And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.

   5And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:

   6But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.

   7And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.

   8And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred.

   9And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

   10And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable.

   11And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:

   12That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.

   13And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?

   14The sower soweth the word.

   15And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.

   16And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;

   17And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they are offended.

   18And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,

   19And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.

   20And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred.

   21And he said unto them, Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel, or under a bed? and not to be set on a candlestick?

   22For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was any thing kept secret, but that it should come abroad.

   23If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.

   24And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given.

   25For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath.

   26And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground;

   27And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how.

   28For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.

   29But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come.

   30And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it?

   31It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth:

   32But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it

May we get about the true work of believers which is the Great Commission:

Mark 16:
15And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

Dear Precious Friend

Thank you for you comment in the past. I appreciate your emails. Once again, I am happy as I bring this January 2008 ministry update to your inbox. I rejoice with you in what the lord is doing in our midst here in Nepal. Thank you for your love and prayer in the past. God bless you so much.
I had been praying for my assistant in ministry for a long time because I wanted to do God's work in entire Nepal. Brother Bikash Magar who received Jesus Christ at the soccer field at the beginning of my ministry has now joined me to assist me in the ministry. We provided him a room and I told him that we would give him 33 US dollar per month as a gift. Our entire Church member in Kathmandu gave him what ever they could. Some brought vegetables, some brought Gas Cylinder, some brought stove, others rice so and so. I am happy every church member contributed. Pray for this brother, just as I need your prayer this brother also need our prayer. Now I can concentrate my mind to do God's work in entire Nepal.
Our 13th Church was planted in Sarlahi through our brother Kul Bahadur. He has small congregation of growing believers. I could not go there in anauguration, I sent Brother Bikash in my instead who went and prayed for the new Church and Leaders. Please pray for this brother also. Photos of this church were mistakenly deleted.
