Acts 24:15 I have hope in God, which they themselves also accept, that there will be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and the unjust. Acts 24:21 unless it is for this one statement which I cried out, standing among them, ‘Concerning the resurrection of the dead I am being judged by...

About the resurrection, some are suggesting the first resurrection is 1000 years before the 'second' which is not called the second anywhere in scripture. How can there be a second resurrection then? There is only the second death mentioned. All people die, I take that to mean the first death...

All believers are included in the first resurrection, as their life is hid with Christ in God. Maybe some will see it. Revelation 20:6 Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and...

The first resurrection is not their individual resurrection which happens later. In heaven you don't have a resurrected glorified body until the resurrection of all the dead later on at the day of judgment. The first resurrection is Christ, the first fruits of those who have died, so it is His...

Luke 17, Christ speaks about His return. And the phrasing used is very similar to that referring to the destruction of Jerusalem note v31. To me this proves a dual use of these various prophetic chapters in referring to a destruction to come for Jerusalem and then for the destruction of the...

I doubt very much I will be in Judea and have to flee to the mountains. How about you? Where do you live? Judea? See, that is a regional warning to the city of Jerusalem alone. Luke gives a clearer explanation to my mind. But it is all the same messaging coming from Christ about the times and...

The wording of both Luke and Matthew is intensely similar. Matthew 24 1 Then Jesus went out and departed from the temple, and His disciples came up to show Him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus said to them, “Do you not see all these things? Assuredly, I say to you, not one stone shall...

Satan is a pretender to the throne of God Satan wants to be God, to be worshipped. Satan mimics God, fools people into thinking he is God. Satan has his own unholy trinity I can easily imagine Satan using the Jews desire to rebuild their temple and then setup himself as their messiah God by...

Reasonable idea here, Abomination of desolation happens 3 times in history...

Luke 21 is talking about the same events as Matthew 24, and is also split in the 70AD destruction, and the final coming of Christ in a still future time. No mention of abomination desolation The Destruction of Jerusalem 20 “But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its...

Compare Matthew 24 with Luke 21 and you can clearly see that part is about the 70Ad destruction Luke 21 The Destruction of Jerusalem 20 “But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is near. 21 Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those who...

Check out my post answer. it surely can apply parts of it. And Luke 21 mentions the armies surrounding Jerusalem. Same story a little differently written, may help to understand

It is not something I have dwelled much thought on actually. And I am not amil as commonly thought, I am millennialist as that has been happening in heaven no for 2,000 years with believers ruling with Christ in heaven at this moment. There is no indication to me that a millennial reign of...

An interesting way to look at this is when Christ returns, all the dead in Christ are raised and all the believers are gathered to Him by His angels (raptured) to be with Him off the earth in the air. So, then WHO is left on the earth? At the time of His appearing, we have the great...

Luke 18 1 Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought to pray and not lose heart, 2 saying: “There was in a certain city a judge who did not fear God nor [a]regard man. 3 Now there was a widow in that city; and she came to him, saying, [b]‘Get justice for me from my adversary.’ 4 And...

Example of this from the OT, God has not changed how He strives with men. Numbers 12 Then Miriam and Aaron [a]spoke against Moses because of the [b]Ethiopian woman whom he had married; for he had married an Ethiopian woman. 2 So they said, “Has the Lord indeed spoken only through Moses? Has He...

More often than not they do this. I think of them as old testament Christians. Doctrine based on OT and not what the NT says is a sign of this. Including a salvation by works emphasis I have seen. Jesus correctly interpreted the OT doctrines as during His ministering that is what they had then...

2 Peter 2 "they speak great swelling words of emptiness" "accursed children" Destructive Doctrines 1 But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and...

Most likely they have been taught this even from their youth. And reinforced in this from all the teachings they have been subjected to for years. I used to believe it also a long time ago. But when I started to read the bible for myself, instead of listening to great sounding spiritual words, I...

And here is another verse about our final deliverance from evil, guess when it happens! We are taught this in several places, here is one. Hebrews 9 26 He then would have had to suffer often since the foundation of the world; but now, once at the end of the ages, He has appeared to put away sin...
