    The Cleansing of the Sanctuary & The 70 Weeks of Daniel

    Not to derail my own topic, but the physical Jews, which are Jews outwardly, are not even Jews according to the Scriptures. Romans 2:28-29 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: 29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and...

    The Commandments of Jesus Christ

    Matthew 22:37-40 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 40 On these two commandments...

    The Christian and Alcohol - What is wine?

    Isaiah 65:8 Thus saith the LORD, As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one saith, Destroy it not; for a blessing is in it: so will I do for my servants' sakes, that I may not destroy them all. Here we have something called new wine, which is considered a blessing by the Lord. This new...

    Has the Reformation truly finished????

    Floyd, I disagree with your premise, declaring that "we all know" that the Sabbath is Jewish. According to the Scriptures, the Sabbath was made for man. It was not only for the Israelite, but also for the stranger. Mark 2:27 And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man...

    The Cleansing of the Sanctuary & The 70 Weeks of Daniel

    Hello Jack, No, the 2300 years are not symbolical either. The 70 weeks were cut off from the 2300 days. The 70 weeks are part of the 2300 day prophecy. It was the first part 70 weeks of the prophecy. The 70 weeks were not literal and then the rest of the 2300 days symbolic. They are both a...

    The Cleansing of the Sanctuary & The 70 Weeks of Daniel

    Hell Old Jack :) It is not possible for the "seventy heptads" to be symbolical, for they are cut out of a literal time frame. Daniel 9:23 At the beginning of thy supplications the commandment came forth, and I am come to shew thee; for thou art greatly beloved: therefore understand the...

    Has the Reformation truly finished????

    Unity, unity, unity! is what is being pushed. Proverbs 11:21 Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished: but the seed of the righteous shall be delivered. Christ came not to send peace, but a sword. Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came...

    The Cleansing of the Sanctuary & The 70 Weeks of Daniel

    Right here. Hello Jun2u :) The time given of 458 BC is incorrect. It is really close though. The correct year is 457 BC. If we jump ahead 69 weeks, or 483 years, we see that then the Messiah appears. Daniel 9:25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to...

    The Cleansing of the Sanctuary & The 70 Weeks of Daniel

    The movement that pronounced that Jesus was coming back in 1844 made a mistake. Their calculations brought them to the correct date of 1844, but they attributed the "cleansing of the sanctuary" to the coming of Jesus Christ to cleanse the earth. Yet, where do the Scriptures declare that the...

    The Cleansing of the Sanctuary & The 70 Weeks of Daniel

    Shturt678, If the rendering is supposed to say building Jerusalem *for* Messiah the prince, then it may make sense to say seven weeks. But the KJV says "unto" meaning, to His time. That is, 7 weeks of years for the spiritual building for Jerusalem, and 62 more weeks of years until the Messiah...

    The Cleansing of the Sanctuary & The 70 Weeks of Daniel

    They are weeks of years. The word weeks is shabuwa`. 19 times is the word translated to mean week, and one time it is translated to mean seven. Never in the entire KJV Bible is that word translated to simply years. Genesis 29:27 Fulfil her week, and we will give thee this also for the service...

    The Cleansing of the Sanctuary & The 70 Weeks of Daniel

    The 70 weeks are certainly not literal weeks. The commandment to rebuild Jerusalem went forth in 457 BC. Jerusalem was not completely rebuilt in 457 BC. Daniel 8:20-21 The ram which thou sawest having two horns are the kings of Media and Persia. 21 And the rough goat is the king of Grecia...

    The Cleansing of the Sanctuary & The 70 Weeks of Daniel

    I'll tell you, what's mathematical gymnastics is how the 70 weeks of Daniel are somehow split up to mean 69 weeks in the past, and one week in the future. And then the prophecies of the 2300 days, the 1260 days, the 1290 days, the 1335 days, and many of the prophecies of Revelation are stuffed...

    The Cleansing of the Sanctuary & The 70 Weeks of Daniel

    In the vision of Daniel 8, we are given a brief view of the events that would take place in the world. It starts off in symbols, and then leads to two saints talking to one another. Daniel 8:15-16 And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision, and sought for the meaning...

    Something my pastor said during service

    I agree with the Pastor who said those that partake in alcohol are in danger of hellfire. Yes, even one drink. As for gluttony, that too is a sin. I'm thinking though, is it truly a gluttonous problem? Or could it be health related, that which he struggles with? He still must preach the truth...

    Revelation 13:3 ... and all the world wondered after the beast.

    Revelation 17:8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was...

    Revelation 13:3 ... and all the world wondered after the beast.

    Revelation 13:3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast. In this day and age "and all the world wondered after the beast" is being fulfilled. Never before has there been a time when the world is...

    After a Christian Dies

    It says God gave us that spirit. It is His spirit, which can either be the breath of life, or the Holy Spirit. It says nothing about that being a spirit which we are. Man is not a spirit, man is dust. This is virtually saying the same thing that man gives up the ghost when he dies. Job 14:10...

    After a Christian Dies

    The breath of life is God's, and that returns to Him when we die. Man is but dust, not a spirit. We are the dust of the ground and the breath of life. When we die, the breath of life returns to God. Humans are not immortal. We are the temple of the Holy Ghost. The temple dies, but the Holy Ghost...
