    Messiah 2030

    God`s word says - `towards the south, towards the EAST, and towards the glorious land.` (Dan. 8: 9) And that would easily be from Iraq. The A/C cannot be a Jew for the final GENTLIE Global Government leader is a GENTILE. Remember, the Times of the Gentiles. `And Jerusalem will be trampled by...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    So, you`re happy to tell a young man to whom you are presenting the gospel, to come to Jesus and be His bride/wife? And also tell a homosexual, to come to Jesus and be His bride/wife?

    Is the bride of Christ the church as in the people of the church? Or is it a city.

    BODY - One New Man - Eph. 2: 15 & 16) Masculine. .............Unto a perfect Man - Eph. 4: 12 & 13. harmonizes with a Masculine Head. BRIDE - `Cry out & shout you you inhabitress of Zion ` (Isa. 12: 6 Feminine. ..................The Lamb`s Wife. (Rev. 21: 9) The BODY of CHRIST is obviously...

    Is the bride of Christ the church as in the people of the church? Or is it a city.

    Rom. 7: 4 the word in Greek is `Ginomai` might become - cf. v. 13 it is NOT `Gamed,` married. I Cor. 6: 15 - 17 does not say anything about us being a bride. Eph. 5 30 `For we are members of His Body, of His flesh and His bones.` Christ is masculine, and so is His Body.

    Messiah 2030

    THE PEACE NEGOTIATOR The Middle East has again come into focus on the world stage. There seems no solution to the violent fightings and clashes of many groups. However the reality is that this kingdom is divided, and the Sunni and Shi-ites will not have peace until their long awaited `Messiah`...

    Messiah 2030

    HI BBJ, May I come in here? I do have some thoughts on who this person could be.

    Messiah 2030

    Hi Dave, If Jesus was to come in 2030 to deliver Israel and bring vengeance upon the rebellious nations, then we would be in the trib now. God set Israel`s calendar according to their Feasts and Sabbaths. God sent Israel into exile because they didn`t keep His Sabbaths 70 times. Thus the 70...

    REVELATION IS NOT ABOUT THE CHURCH

    OVERVIEW: The Four Visions. The predominant aim of Revelation is the setting forth the splendours of the Son of Man, & to reveal His glorious person. There are four visions of the Son of Man as He is known in the heavenly realm & each vision in turn carries through to completion one aspect of...

    Is the bride of Christ the church as in the people of the church? Or is it a city.

    Hi Scott, 2 Cor.11. Paul is talking to his own disciples and desiring them to be pure. HE wants to present them to the Lord. However, for us it is the Lord who will present us to Himself NOT Paul. (Jude 24) Eph. 5: 32 speaks of the husband and loving his wife as Christ does His Body, the New...

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    It is the `wife` in Rev. 19 if that is who you are referring to. The Body of Christ is the New Man - no male or female. Paul writes 4 chapters of doctrine on this new Man. So, where is the doctrine of this other view - Body of Christ as female?

    THE CHURCH IS NOT THE BRIDE OF CHRIST

    Hi Doug, So good to see someone else with that revelation of the Body of Christ. Where did you get it from?

    Mega-Church Vs Small-Church

    The church, the Body of Christ does not have to have man `s systems organizing them. Believers, as in the early days can quite well gather together with their disciples and other believers. `You therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus, and the things that you have...

    React Or Respond

    Good thought there and much needed, thank you.

    What do you think was God`s Purpose in making - the Nations, Israel and the Body of Christ?

    The whole Tabernacle & Temple with its furnishing and rituals show in great detail Christ`s character and His Mediatorial work as High Priest. The Laws were to reveal to Israel their inadequacy and was the schoolmaster to lead them to Christ. Luke 20: 9 - 18 reveal the blindness of that...

    What Does it Mean…..?

    Hi AJ, Denominations are of man and therefore fallible. The Body of Christ is of God`s Holy Spirit and a spiritual organism. Thus, it is the Spirit of God that helps us to `see` with our spiritual `eyes.` `See` a mind that`s troubled, `see` a heart that cries. People can cover with a facade...

    What do you think was God`s Purpose in making - the Nations, Israel and the Body of Christ?

    God is omniscient and knew that Israel (or mankind, us included) could never be obedient to Him. Thus, Jesus fulfills all of God`s purposes and they will unfold as promised. Matt. 23: 37 - 39 refers to the nation of Israel at the time of Jesus. The rulership of God through them was taken away...

    Messiah 2030

    Hi The Light, The difficulty with those calculations is that they are not the Lord`s. You see the Lord uses a constant 30 day month and a 360 year. That then can be measured on our Solar calendar or the Israelis Lunar calendar.

    What Does it Mean…..?

    Hi AJ, I think these scriptures are helpful - `...the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know...` (Eph. 1: 18) `But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.` (Heb. 5: 14)

    What do you think was God`s Purpose in making - the Nations, Israel and the Body of Christ?

    Hi AJ, Lots of good comments there, thank you. Good detail. Only one point - So, Israel can defeat God`s purpose for them? Of course not. Anything and everything are only fulfilled by Jesus. No man, nation, or angel can stop this or fulfill God`s purposes.
