This is how I read scripture. God elected, before the world was, whom He would save in Christ, refer to Ephesians 1 as an example and 1 Timothy 4 says before time began we were chosen to be saved. 8 Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me His prisoner, but share...

Yes, likely so. You notice that God engineered the life circumstances that kept Abraham away from those cities.

About death , people still die. They die everyday, millions of people are born, live a while, but they all do die. Death being no more is at the end as death is the last enemy to be destroyed. Since people still die today, the last enemy death has not been destroyed, therefore it is not the end...

'This generation' When Jesus sad 'this generation' it was not referring to that generation of an average 40 years, but the one of unbelief, a wicked generation. Seriously the people of the time of Noah lived many hundreds of years! And the generation of unbelief God will destroy at Christ's...

Even when the posts are truth, Jesus caused offence to some, and He said 'Blessed is he who takes no offense at Me'.

Yes another good example of someone who posts the resurrection is past. And yet even with all the scriptures contrary to what they say, will they repent and change their minds? Acts 17 30 Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent, 31 because...

I am sorry but what you describe is not the resurrection! The resurrection happens ON THE LAST DAY, to believe as you do you do not believe in the final judgment also, that there is an appointed DAY of Judgment, because I suppose to you there is nothing left to happen in the future. John 6:39...

The spiritually dead heard God and lived when Jesus preached the word of God to them John 6 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life. 64 But there are some of you who do not believe.” John 6 60 Therefore many of...

Thing is 'dead' to God is not what some people think of as 'dead' The dead are still conscious, either in heaven or hell. Before Christ the righteous dead went to Abraham's bosom. Technically only the body is dead, in that sense. Luke 20 The Sadducees: What About the Resurrection? 27 Then some...

post #50, they teach the resurrection is past. quoted We believe Scripture teaches Christ would come again in that first century generation while some of His original disciples were still alive, to raise the dead, change the living, and catch up both groups together into the heavenly presence...

Abraham kept all his wealth, and God continued to bless Abraham to the point he was like a king and could raise armies. Lot though lost everything he had is my impression. Abraam was concerned for Lot, but we don't hear anything from Lot about going to Abraham for help. They were close enough...

Even so, we do not yet see all things put under the Son. Hebrews 2 1 Therefore we must give [a]the more earnest heed to the things we have heard, lest we drift away. 2 For if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just [b]reward, 3...

The Son of man receives the kingdom from the Ancient of Days Daniel 7 13 “I was watching in the night visions, And behold, One like the Son of Man, Coming with the clouds of heaven! He came to the Ancient of Days, And they brought Him near before Him. 14 Then to Him was given dominion and...

Luke 19, Jesus speaks a parable to tell us He will return to heaven to receive His kingdom from the Father and then return to judge His people and destroy the unbelieving world . ******************************************** 11 Now as they heard these things, He spoke another parable, because He...

24 Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. 25 For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. 26 For what profit is it to a man if he gains the...

This is according to God's purposes, that God sovereignly by His mercy saves some people even though expressing a desire in His word that everyone believe in His Son. God also commands all men everywhere to believe in Acts 17. Nothing can separate His elect from the Love of God. Romans 8 28 And...

The Day of the Lord is a sudden destruction of the wicked 1 Thessalonians 5 The Day of the Lord 5 But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you. 2 For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. 3...

There are no survivors on the Day of the Lord except for His people. Flesh and blood will not inherit the kingdom of God. We shall all be changed, as you see all flesh and blood people God destroys at the return of Christ. Here is the resurrection on the Last Day, here is the trumpet of God as...
