  1. Harvest 1874

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    There are no scriptures, this was merely a speculative remark, based upon the Lord's word that he did not create the earth in vain, but intended it to be inhabited, thus it is a good assumption that this is his future intention in regards to many of the other worlds throughout the universe...

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    Sorry my friend, but you accuse others of self interpretation and yet the whole premise of most of your arguments thus far have been based upon your own self interpretation of the scriptures. You can't just simply quote a few scriptures and imagine they support your conclusions. If they don't...

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    If you examine the scriptures thoroughly you will fine that inherent life is a quality only ascribed to divine beings, immortal beings. Man as well as angels are mortal beings, their life is dependent upon God for their existence and always will be. Just because the Lord states that man when...

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    In the end they are all God's children, just existing on different planes of being. God has earthly sons, angelic or spiritual sons, and very soon divine sons. In my Father house are many mansions, many planes of being.

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    Actually this last part you have backwards, eternal life is what mankind is going to receive, but this life is dependent on an outside source for its existence, viz. the trees of life (the Christ head and body). Those who inherit the divine nature, the nature of God will have life inherent, life...

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    God's spiritual children, not his earthly children. Those proven worthy who receive of the divine nature, inherent life, life in themselves, and thus able to bestow life even as the Father. As God did not create the earth in vain, but created it to be inhabited, so too many of the worlds found...

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    Very astute thought, we think along similar lines, that is with respects to mankind venturing out into the cosmos one, day, but of course God is not going to allow this until man has been perfected. Right now the permission of evil is contained to this one little spear, no need in polluting the...

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    I am glad you see it that way as it was never my intention to offend you in anyway. As it is written, ALL scripture is profitable for doctrine, reproof, correction and instruction… that the man (or woman) of God may be perfect (thoroughly complete). 2 Tim 3:17 It’s only when pride steps in and...

    More on the Two Phases of the Kingdom

    “A correct understanding of the reign of the church is difficult to grasp unless one appreciates also the concept of the two phases of the kingdom of God. The church, together with Christ, will constitute the spiritual ruling class. They will direct the affairs of the kingdom in a manner similar...

    A 1,000 Year Millennium On This Earth?

    Earthly Promises Scriptural evidence of the earthly phase of the kingdom. Hope of the World And the LORD appeared to Abram, and said, to your seed will I give this land: and there built he an altar to the LORD, who appeared to him. (Gen 12:7) And there is hope in your end, says the LORD...

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    Who's denying the literal flood? Yes there was a literal flood and the world (the present order then in existence) passed away in the flood, now did the physical earth pass away as well?, Heavens No! for not soon after when the waters receded the earth was still there, and Noah and his family...

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    It was not quoted to represent a literal statement.
  13. Harvest 1874

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    Once again you have not provided one verse which states that the LITERAL earth is to be destroy, your whole argument is based on your own interpretation of various texts which are clearly symbolic in nature, but which you believe to be literal, of course you don't see any of this because you are...

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    Yes it does, does it not? It gives meaning to the words of the Lord when on the Sea of Galilee he rebuked the winds and the waves, “And he arose and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, PEACE BE STILL! And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.”--Mark 4:39 Likewise will be the words...

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    I’m sorry I was unable to address the first part of your query this morning, I only had time to address the second part of your comment concerning the “sea”, as I had to go to work, nevertheless this allowed me time to ponder your thoughts. We know that the word of the Lord is spirit and truth...

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    Once again many attempt to force literal interpretations on that which is clearly symbolic. The greatest source of error in understanding the symbols of Revelation is a too literal interpretation. It is read as though it were a statement of facts instead of a statement of symbols. The book of...

    Two Phases of the Kingdom

    How clear is the fact that there is to be both a spiritual and an earthly phase to God’s Kingdom! And yet even the Master’s disciples at first could not understand this. Just as their conception of the Kingdom was limited to the idea of a selected Jewish nation under the headship of an earthly...

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    Sorry but none of these texts you quote say anything about the physical earth passing away, they are all highly symbolic in nature. As we had stated earlier attempting to force a literal interpretation on that which is clearly symbolic is one of the leading mistakes made by many Christians...

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    Please quote the specific scripture you refer to which states that the physical earth will pass away.
  20. Harvest 1874

    Earth, Created to stand forever

    A close examination of (2 Pet 3:5) shows us that at one time there had existed a previous, “heavens” and “earth” and that they likewise “waxed old as doth a garment” and perished in the flood. Did the literal earth perish? Heavens No! It remained even as it remains today. Tell me what do the...
