Who's To Say We're Right?
So many are seeking. So many want to find the truth, they want to discern the signs of these times, and they wish to understand what the future holds for them.
We're among those wanting just that and yet time and time again as we hold our discussions, our impromptu chats, where the state of our world and the soon end to it seem to come up, we're left saying-
Who's to say we're right?
Many claim to have the answers. Many are willing to share their point of views. Some say look to your Bibles for the answers, don't just believe what they're saying. And they're right. We will always exhort you to look to your Bible for the answers, always. We look to our Bibles and yet not being scholars, having no ability to determine the Greek, Hebrew and the translations there of, we are left often times having to rely on the translations of others.
If you're like us and not inclined to take on the study of Greek and Hebrew, yet your heart thirsts after answers, you'll probably end up doing something that will create more questions rather than supply you with simple answers.
You need to take advantage of this marvelous creation of the internet and search out the interpretations of those who do have that proclivity to study and learn from the ancient languages.
Are we saying you are to set aside the Bible and only use the internet? Trusting in other’s interpretations?
Never!
Pick up your Bible, pray for the Holy Spirit to enlighten you, ask Jesus to forgive you and give you understanding and with a very humble heart...read.
If God grants you enlightenment, share it with us, share it with others, and we'll do the same.
We'll never claim to have all the answers.
We'll never force our enlightenment on you. You can stop reading this right now as a matter of fact, and you don't have read a single word of our opinions.
We're not looking for disputes.
We're not looking to debate with you.
We're looking for honest insight into the Word of God and we refuse to believe that only our ideas are right.
Hence, 'Who's to Say We're Right?'
We're simple people, we have no extensive education, if you're looking for that sort credential along with our opinions you'll have to go elsewhere.
What do we have to offer you?
Possibilities.
What sort of possibilities?
Truths.
If you believe the truth should only have one possibility, again you just might want to save yourself a few minutes of your time and stop reading now.
Why do we advocate the sharing of possibilities?
Because - Who's to Say We're Right, and on the other hand...
Who's to Say You're Right?
With the Bible as our standard and God as our guiding force, we will attempt like many others before us to reveal the truths as we see them. If more than one truth on the same topic is brought up then that's just us looking at the possibilities and letting you know that while we are praying for enlightenment, we're not going to be so shortsighted as to simply believe something because it has been taught to us, or it sounds good. We want to be open to God's Guiding Spirit and not close doors just because something sounds right.
Remember this-
Matthew 24:24 (King James Version)
'For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.'
Mark 13:22 (King James Version)
'For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.'
*
The temptation to pick a path that we think is the only path and block our minds to anything else might be a path forged by those who would deceive even the elect.
We each need to study for ourselves, to seek these answers ourselves, to search for true revelation and pray that we're armed as God intends us to be-
Ephesians 6: 11-18
11Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. 13Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; 15And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. 17And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: 18Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints
*
Luke 24 39-45
39 Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have. 40 And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and his feet. 41 And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here any meat? 42 And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb. 43 And he took it, and did eat before them. 44 And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me. 45 Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures.
*
We need our understanding opened by Jesus and it is our prayer that we will have understanding and be able to watch and discern the signs of the times as they unfold so we're not caught unaware, so we're not deceived.
Yes, we encourage you to use the tools at your disposal, as we will, the internet, the library, a friend, yes, I said a friend. Who's to say they won't have insight?
Pray, study, seek, find... and hopefully God will account us worthy and give us the understanding we need to be ready for him at his Second Coming.

Please don't hesitate to go to other sources to study the prophecy of Daniel and Revelation, I know I've been very slack in keeping my study up in a timely fashion. I do wish to continue it, but I don't want my slackness to impede anyone's thirst for knowledge and truth.
The following site is recommended for their excellent study on Daniel and Revelation and a lot of my own study comes from it, some of it directly, others paraphrased and such.

Please search your Bibles and your hearts with the Holy Spirit guiding you.
May Jesus in all His mercy and grace be with any and all that seek Him and His righteousness and truth.
Amen.
