What
have Others Said?
SIX TRUMPETS
Lesson 9 |
- What approach would you take if you had
to inform a friend of trouble ahead?
- David, September 24, 1999
I see this coming and want you to know how to
best get through or prepare for it.
- Donna, September 15, 2000
I would calmly tell them about the danger as not
to frighten them.
- Roger, February 26, 2001
I HAVE OVERCOME THE WORLD
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
I would tell them that the trouble we see now
will only get worse. Worse than anything
the world has seen before, but not to worry,
because the battle has already been won by Jesus
and that the bible has instruction on how to get
through the strife.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
I WOULD JUST TELL,BUT AM TELLING YOU ABOUT IT NOT
TO SCARE YOU.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
I would first want to remind them that through
turning to Christ, we always have an
refuge. When we lean on Him, He will be our
strength & shield. He has overcome this
world, and will help us to do the same. I would
also let the friend know that I would do all that
I could do for them as well, and that they are in
my prayers.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
I would tell them honestly of what was to come
but would tell them that they will find peace and
comfort in Jesus
- Helen, June 15, 2002
try to say it kindly.
- If you were producing a pantomime what
characterizations would you use to depict good and evil?
- David, September 24, 1999
Facial expressions of happiness and anger.
- Donna, September 15, 2000
I would, Jesus for good and Satan for evil
- Roger, February 26, 2001
BY ENSURING THAT GOD'S HAND IS IN IT AND HE WILL
SEE US THOUGH
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
A person kneeling with hands clasped lookin up
with eyes closed and a satisfied smile for
good. A person standing and slightly
hunched over with arms out and fingers streched
apart. The face would be angry with eyes
flashing and teeth bared would be the evil.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
JESUS STOOD FOR GOOD ALL SATAN DID WAS FOR EVIL.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
For the good character they would be dressed in
white with open arms, the evil would be dressed
in black with a club in hand, and maybe a ball
and chain, because evil and sin is that
way. It pushes and enslaves, while God
encourages and leads.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
smiling for good and frowning for evil
- Helen, June 15, 2002
Jesus and Satan
- How has Jesus made possible the entry of
your prayers into heaven as a beautiful fragrance?
Ephesians 5:2
- David, September 24, 1999
Through the sacrifice of Christ.
- Donna, September 15, 2000
Sweetsmelling savour.
- Roger, February 26, 2001
WALK IN LOVE
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
Through the death of Jesus.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
WALK IN LOVE.AS CHRIST ALSO HATH LOVED US HATH
GIVEN HIMSELF FOR US AN OFFERING AND A SACRIFICE
TO GOD FOR A SWEET SMELLING SAVIOR.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
His sacrifice of Himself was a fragrant offering
opening up the doors to allow our request to
enter in with Him, and through Him.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
Christ gave himself up for us as a fragrant
ofering
- Helen, June 15, 2002
fragrant offering Jesus has made it as a prayer
to heaven.
- What
would you do differently now if you knew the censer would
be thrown down in 24 hours?
- David, September 24, 1999
fast.
- Donna, September 15, 2000
I don't know.
- Roger, February 26, 2001
NOTHING BUT KEEP PRAYING AND STUDING GOD'S WORD
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
I would sit my son and his girlfriend down for a
24 hour bible study. As it is now I,m
trying to plant seed. I don't want to push
them farther from the truth tham they already
are.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
MAKE FOR SURE I WAS RIGHT WITH GOD AND PRAY.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
I would give all my strength, money and life for
those who have not chosen Christ to turn and be
saved. I wouldn't quietly plead and just
encouraging anymore, I would be calling for
decisions, I would be preaching on the side
walks, calling the radio stations and so
forth.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
make sure I was clean from sin and pray for
forgivness of any sin I may have lerking still.
- Helen, June 15, 2002
maybe answer those questions better.
- Can you see any indications of chemical,
biological, or nuclear warfare in the symbolism of the
first four trumpets?
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
Certainly. What would current warfare look
like to a first century prophet? Rockets
and bullets flying in the air would be like hail
and bright stars. Especially now that we
are experiencing some biological warfare, what
happens to nature when we keep tampering with
it. The treat of nuclear desolation is
greater now than it was when the cold war was on,
with the terrorism issues. God holds back
the winds of strife, but soon they will be
unleashed and this earth will suffer and those
who have not chosen Christ as their life and
refuge.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
yes. hail and fire mixed with blood, hurled to
earth and burning up a third of the earth
- Helen, June 15, 2002
That seems to be what it is --nuclear war.
- Have you had an experience when a
"bright star" in your life turned to
"wormwood?"
- David, September 24, 1999
former marriage.
- Donna, September 15, 2000
Yes.
- Roger, February 26, 2001
YES
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
Absolutely! More than one.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
I DO NOT REMEMBER OF ANY RIGHT NOW.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
Yes, I have had people that have acted like they
care for me, turn on me and wound me dearly.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
yes
- Helen, June 15, 2002
no
- How do you imagine the unsaved will
react when they find nothing to sweeten the waters
anymore?
- David, September 24, 1999
Drink anyway from a raging thirst.
- Donna, September 15, 2000
They will be scared.
- Roger, February 26, 2001
FRIGHTEN
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
Suicidal despair. The feeling that
everything to live for is all gone.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
THEY WILL BECOME BITTER
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
They will become even more angry and
discontent. Since they have refused to turn
to God, they will likely turn to blaming.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
they will be bitter and resentful
- Helen, June 15, 2002
won't like it.
- What is your only way out of the
"pit" of sin and evil?
- David, September 24, 1999
Praising God, Jehovah.
- Donna, September 15, 2000
To come to the saving power of Christ.
- Roger, February 26, 2001
MAKING GOD OUR TRUST
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
Jesus Christ.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
BY CONFESSING YOUR SINS TO GOD AND ASKING
FOR FORGIVENESS FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
By turning to the Lord (Christ) now while we
still can. He will save us.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
accept Jesus and repent your sins
- Helen, June 15, 2002
wait until God will help or Jesus will come.
- What does Jesus say he will do the the
time of trouble for the sake of His people?
- David, September 24, 1999
Shorten the time.
- Donna, September 15, 2000
The time of trouble will be shortened for His
people.
- Roger, February 26, 2001
THE DAYS WILL BE SHORTENED
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
He will cut the time short.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
THOSE DAYS SHALL BE SHORTENED.THERE SHOULD NO
FLESH BE SAVED:BUT THE ELECTS SAKE THOSE DAYS
SHALL BE SHORTENED.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
Those days will be cut short or no person would
be able to survive.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
he will shorten those days of trouble
- Helen, June 15, 2002
shorten the days.
- How
have the problems that have come to you seemed like
locusts with teeth of iron?
- Donna, September 15, 2000
The times are growing shorter.
- Roger, February 26, 2001
VERY HEAVY TILL I TAKE IT TO JESUS'S IN PRAYER
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
They can sometimes be overwhelming and seem like
there is no solution.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
A LOT OF DIFFERENT PROBLEMS THAT I DO NOT WISH TO
TALK ABOUT.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
A true swarm of locust is like a cloud, totally
incompassing. Teeth of iron sound quite
painful. When troubles are numerous and cut
to the bone, then I am in a swarm of iron teeth
locust, trying to devour me. I can not
battle that kind of problem alone. Only God
can truly save me from my issues.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
overwhelming and like they had a tight grip on me
and wouldnt let go but when I trusted in Jesus to
take all my problems away he was faithful and
just and helped me through it
- Helen, June 15, 2002
Right now I can't think of anything like that.
- What gives you the strength to carry on
even under the stinging of the evil one?
- David, September 24, 1999
Knowing that God has weighed the trials
beforehand.
- Donna, September 15, 2000
The love of Jesus.
- Roger, February 26, 2001
THE POWER OF JESUS' WORD
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
Knowing that the battle is already won in Christ
Jesus.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
THE LOVE AND POWER OF JESUS CHRIST.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
The faith that God does what He says He will
do. We can and will overcome through
Christ. A five month sting is bearable
knowing that there is an eternal heaven around
the corner! He never allows more to happen
to us then He provides an excape.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
Jesus
- Helen, June 15, 2002
Because He promised a Heaven.
- Throughout the six trumpets how many
terrible actions of Satan the destroyer can you see in
contrast to the love of Jesus the Savior?
- Donna, September 15, 2000
Jesus means life, Satan means death.
- Roger, February 26, 2001
SIX
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
Many, but they all boil down to the choice of
life or death.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
A LOT OF DESTROYING BY SATAN.
BUT A LOT OF LOVE FROM OUR SAVIOR.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
Fire, distruction, bitterness, blood, death,
pain, hurt, problems, stings, dispair,
hopelessness - these are part of Satans
agenda. Jesus on the other hand offers
HOPE, peace, joy, love forgiveness, and living
water.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
many
- Helen, June 15, 2002
Love is greater than anything terrible.
- How
would you describe a vision of modern military equipment
without using any nineteenth or twentieth century
terminology?
- Donna, September 15, 2000
Using horses and chariots.
- Roger, February 26, 2001
I WILL SAY THE SAME THING
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
Fire breathing dragons and dinosaurs flying down
and running across the land ravaging it.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
A MACHINE GUN.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
I would have to use terminology of my time to
discribe it. We are reading the writings of
a first century prophet. He would have to
use the only things that he could relate
to. It would sound just as interesting as
Revelation sounds.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
horses and chariots
- Helen, June 15, 2002
China preparing for war.
- How
many of these listed sins do you see in our society
today?
- David, September 24, 1999
All.
- Donna, September 15, 2000
All.
- Roger, February 26, 2001
ALL OF THEM
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
All of them.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
FIGHTING,ABUSE OF CHILDREN-
SEXUAL IMMORALITY - WAR MURDERS
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
ALL of them are not only in our society, but
encouraged through the movies, books, music and
TV programs that are the popular
"entertainment" of the day.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
all of them
- Helen, June 15, 2002
all of them.
- Why would your prayers, even for
forgiveness or financial help, seem as incense to God?
- David, September 24, 1999
The Holy Spirit's intercession.
- Donna, September 15, 2000
It tells Him we love Him.
- Roger, February 26, 2001
FOR THE END OF TIMES MAKE US TO RELAY MORE ON
JESUS FOR DIRECTION IN OUR LFES.
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
Because they have the sweet smell of His beloved
son. They come through Jesus.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
BECAUSE GOD WANTS YOU TO PRAY TO HIM,ASK HIM FOR
HELP WHEN YOU DO HE HELPS US THROUGH OUR
PROBLEMS.I THANK GOD FOR HIS HELP.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
Just as we long to hear from loved ones that we
have been separated from, God wants to hear from
those He loves so much that He sacrificed His own
Son, Jesus. He wants to hear from us.
He wants to be involved with our lives. If
I think how much I want to spend time with the
person on this earth that I love the most, God
love me infinitely more than I can love that
person. He wants to hear from me. I
love to get a letter or card from one I love, how
much more does God love us and look forward to
our prayers?
- Denice, December 11, 2001
Because we will have a relationship with him when
we pray to him.
- Helen, June 15, 2002
I hope so.
- Would the "goodness of God" or
the fear of fire motivate you most strongly to
repentance?
- David, September 24, 1999
At first the fear of fire.
- Donna, September 15, 2000
God's love is like fire to warm our hearts.
- Roger, February 26, 2001
YES
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
I want to be loved more than life itself.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
YES IT WOULD MOTIVATE ME STRONGLY TO REPENTANCE.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
The goodness of God. I never want to do
anything to dissapoint or hurt Him again.
Just as a child wants a parent's approval and
love, we must obey out of love not fear. I
want to be loved unconditionally by the Source of
all LOVE.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
the goodness of God
- Helen, June 15, 2002
the "goodness of God"
- While
external peace is highly desirable, why is Jesus' peace
in this world primarily a peace of heart and mind?
- David, September 24, 1999
Confidence in the rightness of the outcome He
will bring about.
- Donna, September 15, 2000
Peace of mind,because we know we can go to Him.
- Roger, February 26, 2001
FOR IT WILL SEE US THOUGH THE TIMES OF TROUBLE.
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
Because its a peace that come from something we
can't physically sence. (As in see, hear,
taste, touch or smell.) It comes through
the power of the mind knowing the power of faith
in Jesus and giving peace to your heart and peace
of mind.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
BECAUSE HE IS GOING TO MAKE THIS WORLD INTO A NEW
KINGDOM WITH NO MORE SIN.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
Because we still live in a fallen world full of
the results of sin, even our own previous
sins. We have to deal with the earthly
consiquences of bad decisions, but we can be safe
and have joy inside when we are living in Jesus.
No man knows our heart, only God. It is an
internal peace. The other thing is that when we
chose to be on Jesus's side 100%, we go on the
enemy's hit list. It is the true followers
who will fall under much attack from the
enemy. We are not a threat when we are
following false teachings, only when we are true
believers.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
Because Jesus lives in our hearts and is on our
minds and he is not here in the flesh
- Helen, June 15, 2002
Because the deep that Jesus offers would last
longer and better.
- How are saints identified in
relationship to Jesus?
- David, September 24, 1999
Church members.
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
The followers of Christ Jesus.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
faithful to jesus christ salute every saint
in JESUS CHRIST
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
Saints are the "faithful (or believers who
are) in Christ Jesus" - I like
the way someone explained the word
"believing" as "be"
"living" in Christ. It is not
just a matter of thoughts and acknoweldgement..
It is a life changing situation.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
they are all said to be saints in Christ Jesus
- Helen, June 15, 2002
Greet all the saints in the name of Christ Jesus.
- As a follower of Jesus, how can you be
poor and rich at the same time?
- David, September 24, 1999
Poor in earthly treasure;abounding in the values
of Christ.
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
Through the Holy Spirit you become blessed.
The treasures are the knowledge of salvation and
fulfillment of life through a relationship with
your creator.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
THAT YOU HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE AND BE FILLED WITH
THE FULLNESS OF GOD.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
I can be poor according to the world's standards,
and if I am trying to please the world, then I am
poor in the light of God's true blessings.
I am rich when I am living in Christ and blessed
with His strength, power, knowledge and the
fullness of God! That is true riches that
no man can take away!
- Denice, December 11, 2001
poor in the physical sense and rich with the
blessings of Jesus and the inheritance yet to
come by being a believer in Jesus
- Helen, June 15, 2002
As a follower of JesusI am rich.
- How are God's saints, living near the
return of Jesus, identified?
- David, September 24, 1999
Patient.
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
Those who obey God's commandments and are
faithful to Jesus.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
THE PATIENCE OF THE SAINTS:HERE ARE THEY THAT
KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS OF GOD,AND THE FAITH OF
JESUS.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
They are those who obey the commandments of God,
they remain faithful to Jesus - and will have to
have patient endurance. Faithful to the
end, faithful to God.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
paitent
- Helen, June 15, 2002
They obey God's commandents and live
their life for Jesus.
- Is your belief in Sainthood based
primarily on faith or feeling? Why?
- David, September 24, 1999
Faith; a steadfast dedication to theprinciples
God has given graciously to us.
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
I believe that my faith is a feeling.
Because I carry Jesus in my heart and include Him
in everything I do I have faith in the feeling of
comfort I recieve.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
FAITH-BECAUSE I BELIEVE IN THE WORD OF GOD AND
HIS LOVE FOR US AND THAT HE WILL NOT LEAVE US OR
FORSAKE US.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
Faith is the key. Feelings are all tied up
with all the stuff stored in our brains since
before birth. Depending on how our lives
have been, the feelings can be different in the
same exact situaiton for each person even with
the same beliefs. Feelings are not
facts. Faith is where our salvation lies
and our gift to be called saints, not our
feelings. I can feel quite attacked and a bit
blue, but my faith can stay strong even in the
darkest of hours and regardless of my
feelings. Even in the statement be angry
and sin not - the feelings are not the issue it
is what is done out of them that really counts.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
Faith- because I believe in Jesus and have faith
in him
- Helen, June 15, 2002
Because Jesus says so.
- What special work does the Holy Spirit
do?
- David, September 24, 1999
Teaches and covicts regarding truth and error.
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
He lets you know if you are doing right or
wrong. He keeps you on tract with God by
convicting your guilt and having you repent to
get right with God.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
AND WHEN HE IS COME,HE WILL REPROVE THE WORLD OF
SIN,AND OF RIGHTEOUSNESS,AND OF JUDGMENT.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
To convict of our sins - so that we may turn and
repent of them and come to Life in Christ - which
can happen when we turn from sin.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
convicts the world of guilt
- If people resist the conviction of the
Holy Spirit and will no longer confess and forsake sin,
can they be forgiven?
- David, September 24, 1999
no
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
No.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
WHOSOEVER SPEAKETH A WORD AGAINST THE SON OF
MAN,IT SHALL BE FORGIVEN HIM:BUT WHOSOEVER
SPEAKETH AGAINST THE HOLY GHOST,IT SHALL NOT BE
FORGIVEN HIM,NEITHER,IN THIS WORLD,NEITHER IN THE
WORLD TO COME.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
When we grieve the Holy Spirit, eventually you
will no longer hear the conviction. If you
no longer recognize wrong as wrong, you will not
turn away from it, and can not be fogiven.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
no
- What sins can be forgiven?
- David, September 24, 1999
Those we confess and have washed away.
- Sherril, August 5, 2001
All, that are repented.
- Linda, November 8, 2001
IF WE CONFESS OUR SINS,HE IS FAITHFUL AND JUST TO
FORGIVE US OUR SINS,AND TO CLEANSE US FROM ALL
UNRIGHTEOUSNESS.
- Tamara, November 16, 2001
Confessed sin can be forgiven.
- Denice, December 11, 2001
any that we confess
