Zion....heavenly Zion is "a very high mountain", because it is ABOVE. No earthly mountain is that high. Well that temple might be built, as God allows man his way in many things. It's not easy to let go of and die out to things of earth, yet that is what we are called to.

I believe meeting the Lord in the air will be as it was in the days of Noah, pictured with Noah in the ark being lifted up "ABOVE the earth"....where our hopes and affections need to be. Jesus has defeated the prince of the power of the air and has had all authority in heaven and earth given or...

The "Israel of God" (as opposed to "Israel after the flesh') is already Christ's body on earth. I will just stick to the bible that indicates we are not to expect that His coming will be in a fleshly manner. It is this looking for earthly things that tripped up the Jews in the first century and...

I think you are over-analyzing things (natural/carnal mind of the flesh) when what we need in order to understand rightly divide scripture is the simple illumination of the Holy Spirit. I can find no command of God or indication that Ezekiel's temple was built by hands of man. Only that it was...

We as His church only have to do with the substance, ie, heavenly realities, not the types and shadows. Scripture does not teach that the Word of God will become flesh again, it implies the opposite......we are NOT to believe and follow those who say lo here He is or lo there in any fixed...

Couple of problems with this is that we are told in the bible that Jesus gathers the church to Himself at His coming, where we will “meet Him in the air”, not a physical Temple, and that this world and everything in it burns up at His coming. The bible says He is coming to be “glorified in His...

That isn't in the bible.......I just said it as a "by the same token" kind of thing. Except that it is interesting where it says "if ye have not the Son, ye have not the Father either."

There seems to be a mixture of spiritual with earthly in some of the things you are saying. The Holy Spirit leads us into all truth, but we are also told to test the spirits and test everything. Jesus said if anyone says to you "here He is in the inner room, or there in the desert" to not...

Heb 13:14 For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come. 2Pe 3:3-13 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as...

But did Jesus mean something other than what is written, where He said His kingdom is not of this world and comes not with our careful observation that we might say lo here it is or lo there? We need to really let that sink in and look at other scriptures in light of it.

I had forgotten about this already, and had only heard of it the first time a little while ago, golly. But amen, we don't need that specific verse because there are plenty of others.......what we do need is eyes to see and the witness of the Spirit within us to know who Christ is. It's a...

Amen! Unfortunately the devil is very busy deceiving people and undermining the gospel and just Who Christ is. No mere man, prophet or not, can save souls. According to holy writ, all over the bible, the Lord God is Saviour and saving souls is HIS domain. Jesus is "God with us" - Emmanuel -...

If the Son isn't God, the Father isn't either.

Were you talking about my post? It is God's word that I brought. I just edited it to underline what came directly from scripture if you want to take a second look. Ask me if you want me to get the exact chapter & verses for you.

It is necessary to have passed from death to life, yes....and to have been translated from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of light. Being born of the Spirit is necessary to belong to Christ ("if any have not the Spirit they are none of His")......which means being adopted into the...

Twinkling of an eye just signifies instantaneous, that is the point I was trying to make. Being born again is the necessary starting point and it happens in a moment of time, instantaneously, when we receive Him we receive faith that is not of our own mind but is of Him, of His Spirit, and we...

Father, Son and Holy Spirit are all one. They are three, but one. When Philip asked Jesus to "show us the Father", Jesus said "I have been with you all this time and you haven't known me? If you have seen me you have seen the Father." (John 14:8-9) The bible says elsewhere that Jesus was God...

A person is translated out of the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of light the moment we receive Christ and are born of His Spirit. This is something that happens in a moment of time, in the twinkling of an eye, the moment that Christ comes to dwell in us. We become a new creature at that...

"At least the Pharisees knew better" who only saw Jesus through eyes of flesh? Yikes. They knew better than those who walk by faith not by sight? Jhn 5:37-44 And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape...

1Co 2:13-16 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them...
