Crash Course In Jewish History. Daniel 7:18, Modern English Version (MEV) But the saints of the Most High shall take the kingdom and possess the kingdom forever, even forever and ever.” "Seven Women Shall Lay Hold of One Man!" by David Wilkerson, founding pastor of Times Square Church, New York City - September 18, 1995. According to the prophet Isaiah, two kinds of churches will exist in the last days.
And I believe these two types of churches are already in existence. We do not have to speculate about what they will be like - because Isaiah gives us a very clear, prophetic description of both. Isaiah 4 opens with a concise and tragic description of what I call "the church of forgiveness only": "And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach" (Isaiah 4:1).
This is one of the most misunderstood verses in all the Bible. Some commentators suggest this happened during the reign of King Ahaz, when enemy armies came in and slew 120,000 men.

Horsey: Trump's naive nationalism no match for forces of new world order - Baltimore Sun. On the morning of Nov. 18, with a brass fanfare ringing through the high arches, I walked down the center aisle of the majestic Canterbury Cathedral to receive an honorary doctorate from the University of Kent.
It was a crowning moment of my career, although a little voice inside my head was laughing uproariously at such a fuss being made about a cartoonist. The 10-day trip to England to receive this accolade was a welcome break after long months of following an intense campaign that ended with the election of the stunningly unqualified Donald Trump as president of the United States. Of course, that topic could not be escaped. As soon as my family and I stepped off the airplane at Heathrow, a customs officer who just happened to be a young woman wearing a hijab made the first query about Mr.
Trump. My English friends, as well as everyone I spoke with during various events at the university, all wanted to commiserate about what Mr. Such transitional times have come before. The Seven Seals of Revelation Have Been Opened! The Book of Revelation was given as a mysterious, closed and sealed book.
It was sealed with seven seals. It is similar to the book of Daniel, which God told Daniel was sealed until the time of the end. But if God wanted to hide this knowledge completely, He never would have revealed it in the first place. He meant for those seals to be opened. In fact, God intended this important prophetic book to be understood in our time today! Matthew 24:9-10, Modern English Version (MEV) “Then they will hand you over to be persecuted and will kill you. And you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake. Then many will fall away,...

Exploitation and lies in the new world of work. Felicity Lawrence’s piece (Trump is right: Nafta is a disaster.
But US workers aren’t the big losers, 18 November) chimes with my experiences from the mid-1980s. My company, IBM, produced PCs in state-of-the-art plants in Greenock and Havant, for which it won export awards and its chair got a knighthood. Then, on a globalisation tide, both UK plants were shut, well-paid workers lost their jobs and manufacturing was moved, for cheaper labour, to Mexico – where, typically, plants were not owned by IBM but by sub-contractors which managed employees. These enforced 28-day contracts, regular physical tests, such as strip-searches, and medical tests (including pregnancy tests for women). Tattooed and long-haired applicants for jobs were rejected. After leaving IBM I worked on a successful campaign to get IBM, Dell and HP to accept proper conditions for their sub-contracted workers. . • Join the debate – email guardian.letters@theguardian.com. 1 Thessalonians 5:1-9, Modern English Version (MEV) Concerning the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need that I write to you.

The term Abyss comes from the Greek words Abussos or Abusson and has been translated as Abyss in the NIV or in the KJV as deep or bottomless as in bottomless pit. To a limited extent, the sense of Abyss may bear some similarity to the Hebrew word Sheol which Strong's Hebrew and Chaldee dictionary defines as follows: (#7585) Sheol (Hades or the world of the dead (as if a subterranean retreat), including its accessories and inmates - and has been translated in the KJV as grave, pit, hell. Demons did not want to go into the Abyss.
