The Age of The Gentiles

First off, disproving a negative is next to impossible. Put the burden of proof on him to Scriptually prove that only Jews can be saved during the tribulation. Just as a quick response, I scaned Revelation chapter 2 on the angels of the seven churches. I'm assuming that not all seven churches are full of nothing but Jews.

I don't see anywhere in context of Revelation or in the prophecies of Daniel where the Jews are recognized or specified. More input by others would be helpful.

 

Whitedove: //This man says that God will refuse
to allow gentiles to call on God, repent, and
be saved during that time.//

The statement is incorrect. God will allow gentiles
to call on God, repent, and be saved during
the Tribulation Period.

HOWEVER, i suspect fewer than 10,000 will
take advantage of it. Come on, if one can't 'call
on God, repent, and be saved' during the easy times
how will they do it in the hard time?

I also think the actual Tribulation gentile saints will
ALL be stillborn saints. Stillborn saints are those who
are executed as a result of their confession leading
to salvation.

Rev 9:20-21 (KJV1611 Edition):
And the rest of the men which were not killed
by these plagues, yet repented not of the works
of their hands, that they should not worship deuils,
and idoles of golde, and siluer, and brasse,
and stone, and of wood, which neither can see,
nor heare, nor walke:
21 Neither repented they of their murders,
nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication,
nor of their thefts.

(also note that "the favorite sins of the Tribulation Period"
are fairly popular right now )

 

Are you saying that people will sacrifice animals during the MK? Why? What exactly is to be restored? The old temple and old testament ways or the whole world to prefall conditions? Wasn't Jesus the ultimate sacrifice?

 

Hello and welcome, Wendy,

Ed Edwards is what we call a dispensationalist, and that is the eschatological view that your co-worker also holds. Ed argues that gentiles will be able to be saved during the tribulation. But in my first exposure to dispy thought, my pastor taught exactly what your co-worker believes--that after the rapture, it's too late for any gentile to be saved.

It's obvious that all dispys do not speak with one voice.

I also believe that gentiles will be saved during the tribulation, but mainly that's because I do not buy the idea of a pre-trib rapture. But that's been argued in other threads, so no need to start a debate here.
