    A Spirit of Unbelief

    Not if you consider the Greek word used for a dead person in the verse. What the verse is telling us is that all the people who have physically died, will stand in the GWTH before Christ and they will be judged, and as Daniel tells us in Daniel 12:2-3 2 And many of those who sleep in the...

    It seems to me that your understanding of Genesis 2:17 is not in sink with the context of this verse. I would paraphrase this verse in this manner: - Genesis 2:17: - but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die/...

    Perhaps, a better paraphrase of this verse would be: - And I saw the dead/those that had died a physical death, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead/those who had died a physical death, were judged out...

    The second death is what people become a candidate of because of their unrepentant sin. However, if people will repent then they will live.

    it is time that you speak plainly. What exactly is the basis of your disagreement with the post other than what you are taking personally.

    The above is just your opinion. The statements you have made sound like they are from scripture, but whether or not they are is questionable.

    So, you do not accept the scriptures as written then, that they set out a timeline from the time of Adam's creation to the final judgement of just over 7,000 years.

    So, your dismissal of my post rests on your dislike of being called out for your belief in the pre-trib theology. You have stated your belief in the Pre-trib understanding and defended that position on this forum many times. You, in your own way, have also constructed a straw man argument in...

    Not too sure about this demarcation of when the living and the dead will be judged. I do not recall any scriptures that back it up. Shalom

    A Spirit of Unbelief

    Yes, that portion of rev 20 that you quoted does say that, but you should have also included the next two verses which clearly state the following: Rev 20:14-15: - 14 Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15 And anyone not found written in the Book of...

    Marks, I thought that both the dead and living will stand before the judgement seat. The first separation will be between those who call Jesus Lord and those who do not, the separation of one flock from another. This is referred to in Ezekiel 34:17-24. then there will be a second judgement...

    Have you been looking in a mirror at yourself when you made this comment.

    Who the beast and false prophet really are.

    Hello, the entity of the beasts and the Little Horn is found in these scriptures: - The beasts of Daniel 7 and Revelation 9 Daniel 7:15-18: –– 15“ I, Daniel, was grieved in my spirit within my body, and the visions of my head troubled me. 16 I came near to one of those who stood by and asked...

    Tribulation Outtakes

    The Greek word that is translated as "earthquake" is better understood to have the meaning of "turmoil." The worldwide turmoil was WW1 and WW2. The Seventh Bowl Judgement has already happened which is confirmed by Babylon being recognised by the establishment of Iraq to have dominion over the...

    Who the beast and false prophet really are.

    Really, Davy, is that the best that you can do? The beast mentioned in the Book of Rev is first mentioned, chronologically, in Rev 17 where we read: - 7 But the angel said to me, “Why did you marvel? I will tell you the mystery of the woman and of the beast that carries her, which has the...

    End times eschatology and the hatred for it

    AH! but in the LXX Greek translation it uses the Greek Word, "genea," G:1074, in passages like Gen 15:16 which speaks of a period of time which was, "In the fourth Age/generation." From the time that Isaac was born in the year 2052 BC until when some of Abraham's descendants return to the Land...

    Tradition Versus Scripture

    Then go with God's blessing over your life. May He continue to draw your further into His Loving Embrace as you learn more about His Character and Grace as you continue to develop a face-to-face relationship with Him. Shalom

    End times eschatology and the hatred for it

    Perhaps it is best to understand that the Hebrew word dor H:1755 is a reference to a period of time that also has the same duration as a day of the Lord's within God's timeframe of reference. We know from Matt 24:32 that the end of this present age will be soon, probably within the next 20 or...

    Womens Board

    Ah! @LadyofFireandLace, perhaps this is your opportunity to pray for @Meadow that God will draw her into His loving Embrace so that she can know His Love and purpose for her life. An open forum is not a good place to discuss private and personal matters, however, using the private messenger...

    Why do so many bury their Talent?

    Ah, Behold, it seems to me that you are tared by the same brush that our friend @Episkopos has been tared with. Twisting the words of Christ to justify your belief system. Oh well have a good day then.
