    Some key points pertaining to the parable per Luke 19:11-27.

    You have not understood how Jesus is like a thief in the night ever since Pentecost. See the synopsis of the parables of "the strong man", beginning in Luke 11:21. Nope! You misunderstand that spiritual Israel is Heavenly Jerusalem (the inner court), and Jerusalem which now is, is the (outer...

    Some key points pertaining to the parable per Luke 19:11-27.

    There are only three possibilities of that which could be earthen. 1. This present old earth. 2. A future new earth. 3. What Jesus inherited, that no one else has yet inherited, ever since the day of his bodily resurrection.. His promise: John 14 [2] In my Father's house are many mansions: if...

    Some key points pertaining to the parable per Luke 19:11-27.

    Since Jesus has already received his kingdom, we must take seriously that it really is not now of this world, nor shall it ever be. John 18 [36] Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the...

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    Yes, you are somewhat correct. Jesus' reply, as to a sign that the Pharisees asked of him, was very direct. In John 2:18-21, Jesus was speaking about the temple of His mortal, flesh and "blood" body that was going to be destroyed, but would be resurrected back to New Life, and thus He would...

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    You wrote: "Luke 21 mentions zero about any AOD. You are adding to the text since some of that is meaning what happened during the events involving 70 AD, except none of those events involved an AOD." Which temple?? Maybe it's simply the fact that most Christians are being led astray by...

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    That is not the point. The point is the OT. Prophecies are about Jesus and John the baptist, not the church. John 5:39; Isa. 40:3-5; Mal. 4:5.

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    To be "anointed", is to have the Holy Spirit of God. Of all people in both the OC and the NC., only John the Baptist had the Holy Spirit while in his mother's womb, and Jesus, as we all know, was conceived by the Holy Spirit of God. One can not get anymore anointed than that. As the scriptures...

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    Nice try. If we are to interpret Zech. 4:14 that way, then why did you neglect to include the 144,000 of OC. Israel, who lived in faith of "the promise that was to come". John 5 [39] Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    Zech. 4 [11] Then answered I, and said unto him, What are these two olive trees upon the right side of the candlestick and upon the left side thereof? [12] And I answered again, and said unto him, What be these two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden oil out of...

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    I see that you are spinning around the concept of John and Jesus being a joint ministry, hoping to not agree with it, but fearing that you should not deny it. Though you know the scriptures as much as I, you must consider that Zech. 4:14 is specific about only two "anointed" beings as...

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    You said in your post #398: "Artaxerxes ratified the decree again in his seventh year. According to the Hebrew calendar, this date was 457 BC, and Ezra says it happened on the “first day of the first month in the seventh year of King Artaxerxes.” Now, when we count forward 483 years from 1 Nisan...

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    That concept is shown in Luke 21:20-24, of which began in 70 AD. [23] But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people. Also Rom. 2:9.

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    According to Zech. 4:11-14, John the baptist and Jesus were a joint ministry. John the baptist's ministry was for 6 mos., and Jesus ministry began upon his baptism at 30 yrs old. Both at the beginning of the 70th week (490 years). In the midst of the week (3.5 yrs.) Jesus was crucified in 1.0...

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    Unto the Messiah the Prince is the 70th week. Anything prior to the coming of Jesus in mortal flesh would be of the 69th week, being that of the built street and the wall. Even the Jews attest to the fact that the temple was in building for the past 46 years, when Jesus was only 30 years old...

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    The counting of time for Jesus' ministry of 3.0 years began upon His baptism, wherein God the Father from heaven enjoined Him. It was at that time that John understood that he himself would decrease and Jesus would increase. John 3:27-30. You are not correctly aligning the prophecy of Zech...

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    Together, John the Baptist and Jesus was a joint ministry, confirming the NC. (Zech. 4:11-14). John for 6 mos., and Jesus for 3 years= 3.5 years. Jesus' mortal flesh was crucified in the midst of the 70th week (3.5 years). For the remaining 3.5 years, by His Holy Spirit, He continued to confirm...

    the Great Tribulation

    Think this through by "the mind [Spirit] of Christ" within you: Since Pentecost (under the NC.), every LIVING person of faith, who believes that the Messiah/Savior has come in the flesh, whether Jew or Gentile, and are born again of the Holy Spirit, is in permanent possession of the "Wedding...

    the Great Tribulation

    Most have not figured it out yet that the figurative 144,000 is about the 12 tribes of OC Israel (martyrs included), which do not cohesively exist today, ever since 70 AD. You should know (Isa. 55:8-9) that not everything in Revelation is chronological. God thinks in the past, present and...

    the Great Tribulation

    Absolutely false. The fact is, you don't hear what I say, because your mind is filled to the brim with the doctrines of church-ianity, aka "the wisdom of men", which is where/how "our faith should NOT stand...."

    the Great Tribulation

    1. The bodily resurrection of the martyrs, who are of the figurative 144,000 under the OC., after Jesus' mortal death, while on the cross. Please see KJV Mat. 27:50-54. 2. The figurative 144,000 remaining, of the OC., permanently receive the "seal" of the HS after Jesus' death and resurrection...
