Things that make you go hmm...
Q: Is the world going to end in 2012? A: No... Many people for a variety of reasons are beginning to think that the world is going to end in 2012 however that goes against what the Word of God teaches. (Side note, the Bible has yet to be wrong) Though no man knows the day or the hour when Christ will return for His church we do know that He is coming... however once he comes via the rapture there is a time of judgment called the Tribulation. The Tribulation will last for 7 years at which then ushers in the millennial reign or thousand year reign of Christ on earth. So... even if the Lord came back today there is still a guaranteed 7 years left prior to the destruction of the world putting its earliest date in 2017... 5 years later than 2012. (This does not account for the 1000 year reign and full obliteration of the heavens and earth.) For more info on the Tribulation read the book of Revelation. Q: What is the difference between Satan and the Devil? A: Nothing but terminology and description… they are the same being. Satan OT (Refers to him as the arch enemy of God) Satan NT (known as the “accuser”) ie. The accuser of the brethren... Rev. 12:10 Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, "Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. The term or name “Satan” is found in both the Old and New Testament while the term “Devil” is only found in the New. Devil: a demonic being, false accuser or slanderer
