Dear Stewardofthemystery, I am teaching the truth of Christ in a respectful way. If you are offended and pricked by Christ's truth, that is between you and Christ to resolve. Since Christ has not made you receptive, I will no longer post to you. Joe

Dear Stewardofthemystery, You are being disrespectful in your communications. As for the destruction of the Temple, it is strongly tied to the Old and New Covenants as I explained above to "covenantee". The destruction of the physical temple is a "type" for the transition from the Old to the...

Dear covenantee, If they were saved, they are not perished. Here is the scripture and the meaning of Christ's spiritual message: Mat 24:2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be...

Dear Stewardofthemystery, Your are trying to understand the New Covenant as if it were the Old Covenant. You have not rightly divided the truth. Believers in Christ are under the New Covenant where the temple is not made with brick and hands. Also, you don't seem to understand that in...

Dear covenantee, Yes, if the Judaean Christians believed that the destruction of the physical temple was the Abomination of Desolation, they were still spiritually blind and unconverted. Most believers (the "many") are spiritually blind and cannot know the truth of Christ's New Covenant...

Dear Stewardofthemystery, Yes, their own eyes could see the Temple. But in Christ's spiritual language, the physical is a "type" which represents the spiritual that is fulfilled under the New Covenant. Under the New Covenant, the believer is the temple of God. You need to transition from the...

Dear covenantee, Yes, that is all historical but it was not the Abomination of Desolation which Christ and Daniel taught about. Your understanding is a carnal. The New Covenant teachings are spiritual. You need to transition from the Old Covenant mindset to the New Covenant mindset. The Old...

Dear Stewardofthemystery, Your understanding of the Abomination of Desolation is carnal and not spiritual. Christ teaches His truth of the New Covenant using His spiritual language. For those teachings of the New Covenant to be understood, they MUST be applied "within" a person. That is...

Dear AuntyJane, You said: What motivated these three rebels to go against God’s stated command? They were made spiritually marred and subject to vanity. The flaw in man's spirit is its weakness. Because it is weak, the flesh has no problem governing the mind, thus making it carnal. It is the...

Dear AuntyJane, Your understanding of "free will" is incorrect. Free will is having the ability to make choices that are free of divine intervention. Scripture strongly teaches that Christ intervenes in all our choices. Prov 16:1 The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the...

Dear AuntyJane, Your understanding of God makes Him out to be a weak and merciless father who can only hope that people will turn to Him. Your belief in mankind's supposed free will ability is evidently too powerful for Christ to overcome in most people. However, there are ZERO scriptures that...

Dear Stewardofthemystery, You said: I disagree because there is a lot of types and shadows in the OT, and the law of God. That is why Paul said the law is spiritual, and asked his readers if they could “hear the Law”. A lot of people don’t understand that the law is also prophecy, just as...

Dear Stewardofthemystery, All the teachings of Christ under the New Covenant are spiritual. Those teachings must be applied within a person and not out into the world. To understand those teachings, Christ must heal a person's spiritual blindness. The Old Covenant is different. Its teachings...

CONTINUED FROM THE PREVIOUS POST... Luke 5:39 No man also having drunk old wine straightway desireth new: for he saith, the old is better. The Old Wine represents the blood of the animal sacrifices of the Old Covenant of Law. The Old Covenant is man's attempt to be acceptable to Christ by...

CONTINUED FROM THE PREVIOUS POST... After Christ gives His gift of the Early Rain of the Spirit to a person, they will no longer be able to reject Him. Even with just a measure of the Spirit, an unbeliever will become a “called out” believer and will confess that Jesus is their Lord. 1 Cor...

Dear AuntyJane, You asked: Which is why I have to ask....what then is your big picture? Why are we here? What went wrong, and how does God fix it, whilst still keeping to his original purpose? I'm sure you want a short answer to those questions but a short answer really isn't possible when it...

Dear Stewardofthemystery, The sun being darkened during the conversion process is strictly a spiritual event. In those scriptures, the "sun" is a spirit word (symbol) which has its own meaning. That meaning must be found by comparing its usage in other scriptures (as you agree). If the sun...

Dear Stewardofthemystery, There is no doubt that the "sun" symbolizes Christ and there are many scriptures that clearly state this truth. But there some scriptures that also use the sun in a negative way. The "sun" used in those scriptures clearly doesn't represent Christ. So who does the...

Dear Stewardofthemystery, Let me try to remove what you see as my mixing of metaphors and symbolism. Here is what I see: Christ teaches the converted Elect in His spiritual language. In that language, Christ uses spirit words which have meanings that are spiritually discerned by comparing...

Dear Stewardofthemystery, Satan and Christ are both represented by the Sun: The "sun" mentioned in the three verses below represent Satan: Isa 24:23 Then the (natural) moon shall be confounded, and the (natural) SUN ashamed, when the LORD of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem...
