I agree with you on most of the things you said. I think I saw you make a post elsewhere that you see the AOD as Jesus becoming sin for us. Personally I think the AOD was the first sacrifice made after the veil was torn. If we put that difference aside and agree on the timing of the AOD, then a...

I agree with most of your post. I agree those under the altar at the fifth seal are OC believers who believed in the promise. I think the 144,000 were those resurrected in Matthew 27:52-53 although I can’t argue against the 144,000 being symbolic of the whole OC Israel. Here’s where I differ, I...

Here is a list I made of the things that I see that connects JtB to the two witnesses. Matthew 11:14 JtB is called Elias but in John 1:21 JtB answers “no” when asked if he is Elias. In some kind of way JtB is a single person that represents 2 people, himself and Elijah. Revelation 11:3 they...

I agree His baptism was a significant event and I don’t have an issue with that being declared as the start of His ministry, for me it does remain a possibility. You brought up the point that John the Baptist must decrease, which is something I never really took a close look at. In Matthew...

I agree with you on this, only that I think Jesus’ ministry started after John was put in prison. Matthew 4:12Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed into Galilee; … 17From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

Here’s the thing that makes me want to take a closer look at the OG version, the KJV was commissioned to be written in 1604 and was published in 1611, the OG was lost at that time so there was no way for them to even consider it. Also the fact that the OG was written prior to the first century...

Hey Marty, do you take into consideration the Old Greek version of Daniel? Here is some information about the Old Greek in case you’re not familiar with it. The Old Greek version of the book of Daniel was used in the first century. The Jewish scholar Theodotian translated from Hebrew to Greek...

You need to update your picture, it isn’t accurate, the frogs should be wearing sheep’s clothing and have ravening wolves in their stomachs. Matthew 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

In Matthew 27:52-53 we have a resurrection just after the cross which would be Old Testament people. Acts 2:29 Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day. David wasn’t part of the Matthew...

1 Corinthians 15:23 is the only place in the New Testament where <5001> tagma is found. It is also in 2 Samuel 23:13 in the LXX. In 2 Samuel 23:13 it means a body of soldiers, a corps. If we claim 1 Corinthians 15:23 is a complete list of all who are resurrected then where do you specifically...

The word “order” means rank or class, as in a military rank. So this verse is saying Christ is ranked the highest (the head) all others are rank lower than that. The verse only gives two ranks which can’t be taken as a definitive or complete list of all ranks or even all the resurrections...

So is Jesus throwing us a red herring in Luke 20? Luke 20:35 But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage: 36 Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of...

I know you put a lot of time and effort into changing the font size and color, but that wasn’t one of the issues. You didn’t address one single problem, so I take it your hermeneutics allows for a verse to be taken literally regardless of conflicts. Let’s look at 1 Timothy 2:15 (NIV) But women...

We know from the Luke 16 parable of the rich man and Lazarus that there was a place where people were tormented in flames at that time. I haven’t been there personally so I can’t give you physical proof.

70AD, that’s when the old covenant vanished and those who entered into the kingdom through the old covenant requirements but rejected the new covenant were finally weeded out. The new covenant came into force through the death and resurrection of Christ, which made the old covenant obsolete at...

Matthew 13:39 NIV and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels. It’s not the end of the world per se, it’s the end of the age. The old covenant age ended in 70AD. Do you have an adversity to scripture being fulfilled? Is there a...

Yea, I have read it, and it says God is not the author of confusion. John 4:35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest. I’m not sure what you’re talking about, the...

So in Daniel 2:44 where it says “in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed” we can know that God sets up His kingdom with unsaved people and these unsaved people remain alive in that kingdom up until it is given to Christ then at that...

Considering the point I made, it doesn’t matter whether or not Jesus received the kingdom. Jesus said unless a person is born again they can’t enter the kingdom of God. You have unsaved people entering the kingdom of God, right?

So how are you interpreting John 3:5-6? John 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. If Matthew...
