You said: I think we have found ourselves now well into the 70th Week, which is the Second Week of Jacob's Trouble - when Jacob shall be saved out of it! Indeed, it seems to be your lack of understanding in that the 70th Week, Jacob's Trouoble, and the covenant with the antichrist is not all one in the same thing! The "so-called tribulation" (more accurately described as the "covenant with the antichrist) will begin at the signing of a "lied-to-agreement" bringing false peace and security.

My response: I don't see any point in what you just stated whatsoever. This statement is nothing short of ignorance. You just proved to me that you know not what you're saying. I can go ahead and share some things with you to enlighten you, but I wouldn't seeing that you're mind is fully made up and will not be changed. The above statement you made is nothing short of a babylonish understanding of prophecy. Need I say more?

You said: Does this mean that you believe that once someone is saved, they can be lost again?

My Response: This is exactly the point I'm stressing. This is another babylonish doctrine that I wouldn't get into with you at this moment. Try reading Paul Wilson's post(five virgins) or Sandra Jean's post for a better understanding. Clever posts they had!

You said: I am doubtful, though, that there is going to be an "early escape", if you will.

My response: This is exactly my point. Double mindedness on your part even though Jesus has clearly promised those who are worthy to escape ALL the tribulation.

"Watch ye therefore, and Pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man." Luke 21:36

Jesus promised an escape from ALL the tribulation not SOME as you are presenting to others and derailing their poor little souls. You will answer for it.

In Christ,
