Isaiah, Part 08 | The Great Tribulation

[@juliehowe3431]

Thank you, Dr. Tour, for your deep knowledge of the Word of God. The decades of years of your study in the Word show in your confident teaching. May God continue to bless you as you teach and share.

[@americanlostinvietnam3721]

Amen. We are to be keeping the morning and evening sacrifices in memory of His death and resurrection. As Paul said, pray without ceasing day and night. These honorary sacrifices are how we begin and end our days as followers of Messiah. These things are not chores, but joy

[@geraldshearon7264]

Amen think of how your heart will swell with joy on that day!

[@dwightvoeks9970]

I agree with praying but Paul also told us we are no longer bound by the laws of the old testament because by grace we are saved not by our works.

[@americanlostinvietnam3721]

@@dwightvoeks9970 are you sure? They gave certain criteria for Gentiles. Christian Jews still upheld the law. They weren't going to church in Jerusalem, they were going to synagogue. If the morning sacrifices looked forward to the death and resurrection of messiah, then we are to keep them, not as sacrificing animals, but the Levitical sacrifices are symbolic to what are to be held by followers of Messiah after he came. The burnt offering of being born again, the peace offering, the sacrifice of thanksgiving. These sacrifices are all prayer offerings now by which way we no longer "strike the rock", but speak to the rock

[@DavidJackson-q5i]

Revelation 3 doesn't say believers will be taken to heaven to avoid the Tribulation. It says they will be kept from temptation. That doesn't require being removed from the planet.

[@chrisg9196]

Rev.3:10 "Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth." The Body of Christ is promised to be kept "from" meaning "out of" [Greek word ek = out of] the "hour" or time of the trial which shall come upon the whole world." The only way to be kept "out of" both the time ("hour") and place ("the whole world") is to be taken out of this world into Heaven. "Let not your heart be troubled...I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also." (John 14:1-3)

[@deepthimendis2431]

Great teaching Dr what you say is true we must get up early in the morning and worship God and read His Holy Word as Jesus said The Spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. May the Lord bless you and your family and let the Christians/Catholics learn the Word of God in the proper way.

[@gabriel201018]

Thank you for the word! You speak with power and it is awesome to hear you preach and teach. I thank God that He will save us from times of Great Tribulation and that He remains with us through our daily trials. ”For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to chains of gloomy darkness to be kept until the judgment; if he did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a herald of righteousness, with seven others, when he brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly; if by turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to ashes he condemned them to extinction, making them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly; and if he rescued righteous Lot, greatly distressed by the sensual conduct of the wicked (for as that righteous man lived among them day after day, he was tormenting his righteous soul over their lawless deeds that he saw and heard); then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment until the day of judgment, and especially those who indulge in the lust of defiling passion and despise authority. Bold and willful, they do not tremble as they blaspheme the glorious ones, whereas angels, though greater in might and power, do not pronounce a blasphemous judgment against them before the Lord.“ ‭‭2 Peter‬ ‭2‬:‭4‬-‭11‬ ‭

[@trevorbates8972]

The greatest teaching we must obey at this time is the message delivered by Jesus Christ himself in the opening of Revelation, which is...Return to his original teaching...even before well meaning Paul got hold of it. Therein is a science which can do for us what it did for the first Christians. It gave Almighty God the authority to save us...even from death...and puts the righteous onus of our death on those who cause it. We then don't need to concern ourselves with the net result of Wormwood entering our gravitational field because that is for those who have betrayed us.

[@geraldshearon7264]

Help that person not to fear, but to make sure their salvation. Compare 1 Cor 15:51 & Rev 10:7 mysteries. Prima facie evidence outranks biblica gymnastics & pretzel making of our holy book. Show love & humility to those who want to fight you about this. Being with Christ is what matters. When is not so critical. Agree to disagree, but love your sister. I argued and won in my mind. He had more grace than I. How I wish I could tell him "sorry", but he's gone & happy with the Lord. How petty I was because I had to be right. You prep, the Lord can use your prep whether you are her we or not. If you get pleasantly surprised and you get a pre-trib rapture, great! If you are right you will be in position to reassure them or lead them to Salvation. God will use you whomever proves right.

[@jjphank]

@@geraldshearon7264 i’m already right Says The 23rd Jude “ save by fear, hating the clothes stained with sin” First Corinthians 9:21 “Paul, taught the terror of the Lord!” Even Jesus made a cord of whips twice; he and John the Baptist called the leaders, snakes -followers of Satan. Some people are saved by fear of going to hell and other people are saved by the love of Christ? in a narcissistic generation, you have to use fear, More so!

Thank you, Dr Tour. I'm both surprised and pleased to hear you mention the Rapture before the tribulation.

I was told fairly recently that a large part of Isaiah is written in poetic prose. Is this portion of Isaiah poetic prose? My question is; how much of this piece of scripture is spiritual truth and how much an analogy of things to come? Should our carnal understanding be the way to understand what is prophesied?

[@patinkodadol7654]

dear dr. Tour, i very much like watching your videos, i was not raised in religion but I am searching for the truth by myself. I understand your saying that life probably did not start by accident. But how do you imagine that it started showing up? was the God pushing the chemistry the right way step by step? or how do you imagine that the first cell showed up? thank you

In reading these verses in 2 thes. Chapter 2 1 Now we request you, brethren, with regard to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, 2 that you not be quickly shaken from your composure or be disturbed either by a spirit or a bmessage or a letter as if from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has come. 3 Let no one in any way deceive you, for it will not come unless the apostasy comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, and knowing antichrist has power for 31/2 years and is destroyed at Christ return how can you say he comes at the beginning of Daniel's 70th week or the 7 year last week? Do you think we Christians today are any better than the apostles or those who are dying today for their faith or Christ who gave himself for us. A servant is not better than his master. HE THAT ENDURES TO THE END SHALL BE SAVED. I've followed you and will continue to do so but I cant agree with you on this and frankly I cant see how an educated man as yourself could believe otherwise contrary to scripture. blessing in CHRIST!!!

[@chrisg9196]

You're conflating the Rapture with the Second Coming. *The Rapture:* Christ comes *_for_* His Bride *_before_* the Tribulation period *The Second Coming:* Christ returns *_with_* His Bride *_after_* the Tribulation period

[@wtillett243]

What new word will he give us that he has not already given us. How many swords do the people of God carry in the kingdom of God? How many nations are already streaming to the house of God. What temple on earth will be better than the spiritual temple being built with living stones, with Jesus as the chief cornerstone. . It seems like we already have access to what was promised.

[@geraldshearon7264]

I dont know when the Rapture will take place, but there's a lot of scriptural gymnastics for the Pre-Trib Rapture. 1 Cor 15:51 seems prima facie, clear as can be fact. It takes a lot of gymnastics/pretzel twisting to try to escape it. I'm a bit disturbed that brother James keeps using God's message to the Philly Church to "prove" a pre-Triɓ Rapture. It's specific to only the Philly Church in a probable Laodicean age. Phiily does escape, but God often uses death as an escape for thè righteous from a disasterous future. Unless all the other churches have no Rapture it would not seem to refer to the Pre-Trib Rapture. I wish it did. Brother James I would feel better if you compare Rev 10:7 mystery & 1 Cor 15:51 mystery & resurrections. I am concerned about honesty issues. Typically 1 Cor 15 is ignored in favor of 1 Thess 4. That "Last Trumpet is a huge stumbling stone. I hope you are right. Iused to teach it using Larkin & Darby &Schoefield notes.

I would ask you, Dr. Tour, if your statement regarding being friends with Joel Osteen from Lakewood Church gives you any concern. He wouldn't say anything negative about homosexuality when asked on national TV. He does not preach the gospel as taught in God's word and I believe 1st Cor. 5:10-12 certainly applies. I will pray that we seek God's truth regarding that ministry.

I really like James Tour like really really like, but one of the test that I use to determine if the person knows the WORD is knowing if it is post trib or pre trib. Because if you read it yourself without learning from everyone, the Bible is very clear about a few points. The whole Bible is about being faithful and trusting the LORD by testing… Furthermore, the whole book of Revelation has a purpose. Truly it is quite easy reading to know … isn’t it the Last trumpet? Furthermore if you believe what Jesus says why would you think Jesus is hiding the secret rapture ? In fact, Jesus is warning about false teaching of finding Jesus in secret places …He is making it clear his coming will be spectacular. And Paul said you will see the Lawless one in Thessalonians before he returns …how clear can it be? By the way Jesus says he is your teacher. So read and pray and find your answer.

The Bible does not say that a quarter of the earth will be killed. It says that the rider of the red horse and the beasts will have power over a quarter of the earth to kill. There’s a big difference between those two.

I don't really have the right words here, but I don't know that I agree with this "pre-tribulation rapture" theology. It's not something I was taught as a Lutheran, and I just don't see how any of the often-quoted Biblical texts are interpreted this way. I fully support James' ministry, but this one teaching always sends a red flag in my opinion, telling me that the person behind the pulpit is too easily influenced by the whims and ways of the modern church. For those who truly love God, belief in this teaching will not influence their salvation. But, I still don't see it as a good thing to believe, overall.

[@ccribbon]

I think that ir´s possible that the ones who are sealed (for their protection) may be the ones that will remain to bring many to The Lord during the tribulation. Thus fulfilling that salvation will come from the Jews

[@geraldshearon7264]

Based on Hebrews 12:22-24, the Messiah’s death in Daniel 9:26 cannot be separated from the New Covenant fulfilled by His blood at Calvary. See the words "church" and "mount Sion" and "new covenant" and "Jesus" and "blood" in the passage. Are we supposed to believe the angel Gabriel appeared to Daniel to reveal the timeline of the Messiah who would fulfill the New Covenant promised in Jeremiah 31:31-34, and then the angel failed to even mention the New Covenant. Or, is the covenant with the many in Daniel 9:27 the same covenant with the many in Matthew 26:28? The 1599 Geneva Bible is the Bible the Pilgrims brought to America, before John Darby showed up on our shores about the time of the Civil War. What was the earlier understanding of Daniel 9:27 found below in the notes of the 1599 Geneva Bible? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dan 9:27 And he shal confirme the couenant with many for one weeke: and in the middes of the weeke he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the ouerspreading of the abominations, he shall make it desolate, euen vntill the consummation determined shalbe powred vpon the desolate. Daniel 9:27 And he (a) shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to (b) cease, (c) and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make [it] desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate. (a) By the preaching of the Gospel he affirmed his promise, first to the Jews, and after to the Gentiles. (b) Christ accomplished this by his death and resurrection. (c) Meaning that Jerusalem and the sanctuary would be utterly destroyed because of their rebellion against God, and their idolatry: or as some read, that the plague will be so great, that they will all be astonished at them.

The following proves you are correct. A Millennium Puzzle to solve… Will Christ be conducting funeral services for mortals killed in accidents 500 years after His Second Coming? The “first resurrection” in Rev. chapter 20 is not the first bodily resurrection in the Book of Revelation, because the two witnesses are resurrected from the dead in chapter 11. There are two different types of resurrection in John chapter 5. There is a spiritual resurrection from the dead in John 5:24, and a bodily resurrection from the dead in John 5:28-29. Does your view of the Millennium agree with what Paul said in 2 Thess. 1:7-10, when Paul said Christ returns in "flaming fire" taking vengeance on those who do not obey the Gospel? The fire comes at the end of Rev. chapter 20. Does your view agree with what Peter said in 2 Peter 3:10-13, when Peter said this earth is going to burn and "dissolve" when He comes as a thief on the day of the Lord? The fire comes at the end of Rev. chapter 20. Does your view agree with what Paul said in 2 Tim. 4:1, when Paul said both the living and the dead will be judged at His appearing? The time of the judgment of the dead, with reward for some and destruction for others is found in Rev. 11:18, right after the 7th trumpet, which is the last trumpet in the Bible. (This verse also proves the Book of Rev. is not in chronological order.) The judgment of the dead is also found at the end of Rev. chapter 20. Does your view agree with what Jesus said in Matt. 25:31-46, where He described the judgment of the sheep and goats, which leaves no mortals alive on the planet at the end of the passage? There are also no mortals left alive on the planet at the end of Rev. chapter 19. Does your view agree with Peter in 2 Pet. 2:4, and Jude in Jude 1:6, when they both said wicked angels are already in chains of darkness? Does your view agree with what John recorded in Rev. 9:1-2, when an angel comes down from heaven with a key to unlock the pit, which means the pit was locked before that time? Are there wicked angels already in the pit in Rev. 9:11? John recorded angels already "bound" in Rev. 9:14. The beast "ascends" out of the pit in Rev. chapter 11, which means the beast was in the pit before that time. Take all of the above and compare it to the symbolic language found in Rev. chapter 20, and the fact the Book of Revelation is not in chronological order, and you will have the truth.

James ¿te sientes bien? ¿Dónde has metido tus conocimientos acerca de la realidad Física? ¿Cómo puedes hablar de mitologías primitivas como si fueran reales? Si lo vas a hacer, di que nada de esto tiene que ver con los conocimientos de la realidad actual, no es científico, no es posible, va en contra de la realidad y es imposible. Afirmarlo desde tu título científico nos quita credebilidad a la comunidad científica. Gracias.

A CyBerean Unification Biblical Unitarian GeoCentricPlaneswalker Perspective,.. Jesus is not part of some hemostatic union, the church/ecclesia will go thru the tribulation not to be mistaken for wrath of god,..

1 Corinthians 15.27 28,..

1 Thessalonians 9-11 9. For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, 10. Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him. 11. Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do

But we will NOT be raptured before the tribulation. We will go through it like Noah and his family did, and like the Hebrews did during the Ten Plagues in Egypt.

[@michaeljames2142]

This is what happens when you take the Bible literally.

[@DerickMcAfee]

@@michaeljames2142 1st Thessalonians 4:13-18 and revelation 19. I do believe the rapture is the same event as Jesus return. Which is after the tribulation, before Gods' wrath.

[@nycpivot]

@@DerickMcAfee Yes, but God's wrath is Judgment Day itself which is immediately followed by eternity.

[@vitola1111]

Or we'll be taken before it happens like Enoch, Noah's grandpa. Enoch represents the church that will be raptured. Noah and his family represent the elect Jews and Gentiles who will survive the great trib and repopulate the millennial kingdom like Noah and his descendents repopulated the eart after the flood.

@sassy3923 There are true believers in Jesus of Nazareth who agree with your opinion and others who disagree. Whether a Christian agrees or disagrees is completely unimportant. Would your faith be shaken if God showed you that He will take His Church up to Heaven before the Great Tribulation?

[@ThomasDowdall-mh1es]

The tribulation started in 2019 with covid

[@awesomefacepalm]

So where's the antichrist? And the great plagues? And the vials?

[@ThomasDowdall-mh1es]

As in the days of noah people will be eating and drinking and giving in marage. This means they won't have realised they were in the tribulation

[@awesomefacepalm]

@@ThomasDowdall-mh1es yet the tribulation describes it as a time that is so terrible that mankind hasn't seen before. The antichrist should've been revealed by now since we're already in the second half by your estimation.

Jesus will rule his Kingdom from Heaven, NOT from the earth. The "Jerusalem" referred to in Revelation is HEAVENLY Jerusalem, it is not the earthly city in Israel! The expression “heavenly Jerusalem” is used in the Bible to describe the indestructible heavenly Kingdom to which anointed Christians have been called. (Hebrews 12:22) But you have approached a Mount Zion and a city of the living God, HEAVENLY JERUSALEM, and myriads of angels When the apostle Paul wrote this, the earthly city with its temple was still very much admired by Jews. Thus, PAUL REMINDED HEBREW CHRISTIANS that “WE DO NOT HAVE HERE A CITY THAT CONTINUES, but we are earnestly seeking the one to come.”-Hebrews 13:14. The destruction of all human governments will take place at Armageddon and that will include Israel, the nations will be removed completely. The earth will look totally different during the Millennium, all the wars will cease and only one Government will exist, the Kingdom!

Dr. Tour, why won’t you respond to Professor Dave? Why won’t you even say his name? Can you provide any irrefutable pieces of evidence that made you come to the conclusion you made?

Sir, please stick to Science. Eschatology is not your area of expertise. The world has had enough of dispensationalism... please 😢

I'm sorry, but you have a very active imagination.
