Re: Scoffers on AFF

2 Peter 3:3-4

3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,

4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.

Sean, that isn't about a second coming, that is speaking about his first coming. Peter is speaking about Judeans scoffing concerning Messiah. The verse is referring to individuals scoffing that Messiah didn't come, because they didn't believe Jesus was the Messiah. Therefore there were Judeans who doubted that Messiah would come at all. The way you ended your post looks like you are the scoffer.

Really?


2 That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour:

3 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,

4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation....


9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

Sean, look at the 4th verse, SINCE THE FATHERS FELL ASLEEP. Sean that is speaking of the patriarchs who were looking for the first coming of Messiah.
Also how many day of the Lord are found in the Bible? Day of the Lord to Judeans and Israelis meant judgement, and they all believed that is why Messiah would come in the first place. They weren't expecting a carpenter on a donkey, but a conqueror to destroy the Gentiles.

Carefully look at the context of the coming of the Lord my boy. Context, not opinion.

Re: Scoffers on AFF

Yes we are.

However, the ANGEL has not made us aware of what the mark is yet......


9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,

10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:

11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.

You mean William Branham? Isn't he dead?

Sean, who is going to stamp this mark on people? The Angel?

Are you scoffing at the word of God again?

You just scoffed at the word of God Benencasa!
