Jhn 18:36...Jesus replied, "My kingdom is not from this world. If my kingdom were from this world, my servants would be fighting to keep me from being handed over to the Jewish authorities. But as it is, my kingdom is not from here." God's Kingdom is spiritual; not literal as Darbites insist.:D

I disagree once more. The characteristics of the New Covenant as promised are essentially four. The New Covenant is: Internal, not external: written on minds and hearts (31:33). Intimate, not distant: “I . . . will be their God, and they shall be my people” (31:33; cf. Ex. 19:12). Direct, not...

That is true but....God did "set up a kingdom which will never be destroyed." God's kingdom is the kingdom of Christ; his people, the church. 2Co 5:1...For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens...

Sorry, but the false rapture theory was a figment of Charles Nelson Darby in the 1800's of which he brought to the USA to promote it through the Scofield Study Bible, the Moody Bible Institute, Dallas Theological Seminary and others that were established to teach guppies of the new theory that...

Your knowledge of scripture is better than this list of theologians who contributed to the International Bible Encyclopedia? LITERATURE. Besides the commentaries, such works on Old Testament Theology as those of Oehler, Schultz, A.B. Davidson, and on New Testament Theology by B. Weiss...

Actually, for the first time, you got it right.... 1- "So to you then ALL Jewish people now know the Lord",...No, only the remnant of the OT Jewish believers plus the Gentile converts, and in the NT believers who recieved the Lord on the Day of Pentecost and forward (Jews and Gentiles) are those...

I cannot speak for theefaith but I would guess that it is and always be ongoing until eternity. In other words it's never ending because there will never be a new one.

Not true again.:rolleyes: Jeremiah was the first to propose this concept of the New Covenant (and the only OT prophet to mention the New Covenant) that would accomplish what the old covenant could not. God would initiate this New Covenant "after those days" in Jeremiah 31:33. Jeremiah's...

Is God's word nonsense???? (Hebrews 9:15) And for this reason He is the Mediator of the New Covenant: in order that through His death . . . those who have been called might receive the promise of the eternal inheritance

Let scripture speak for itself... Isa 9:6-7...For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government will be upon his shoulder, and his name will be called "Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." Of the increase of his government and of peace there...

So say you? Jeremiah 31 most definitely has been fulfilled. Did you not read the International Bible Encyclopedia's main point that was...Christ, as mediator, fulfilled the major 3 roles as prophesied from the OT; those being PROPHET, KING, and PRIEST? (and I might add SAVIOR to this topic.)

IV. Mediation and Mediator in the New Testament. International Standard Bible Encyclopaedia The relatively independent lines of development which the conception of mediation has hitherto taken now meet and coalesce in Jesus Christ. 1. The Synoptic Gospels: The traditional division of Christ's...

When Jesus said "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law OR the prophets; I have NOT come to abolish THEM but to fulfill THEM" just who are the THEM? The text specifically says he came "to fulfill the Law AND the Prophets." That would include Jeremiah 31 because Jeremiah was certainly...

The Jeremiah 31 New Covenant was fulfilled in Christ when he instituted the New Covenant as in... Luk 22:20...And likewise the cup after supper, saying, "This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood. 1Co 11:25...In the same way also the cup, after supper, saying, "This...

Been there! Done that! You will shortly find out he has blindfolds on.:cool: You have to define the word "is" to him. He doesn't get it.

keith, ok you are right about the "a friend" and "them" usage but it is usually customary to overlook little unintended slips so I will correct that since it confuses you. Secondly, in regards to your considering the JW's as a legitimate Christian denomination goes and believe they are far...

The word "love" has 4 different meanings to it. If a friend sees you starting to consider that the Jehovah's Witnesses are a legitimate Christian denomination because of what they tell you and you do nothing to convince HIM/OR HER otherwise, do you "love" your friend or not?

I did. You have not taken the blindfolds off, taken the plugs out of your ears nor opened your hardened heart to even consider for one moment that you are 100% wrong about the New Covenant and so, as I said before, go back and re-read what has already been posted and THEN we can possibly discuss...

No, there are definitely individuals here that have hardened hearts like the Pharisees, are blind to the truths of scripture, and deaf to considering that they just might be wrong in their beliefs to the point it is useless for those of us who do believe that the theory of dispensationalism is...

WELL SURPRISE, SURPRISE!!!! Don't waste my time. Your heart is hardened, your eyes have blindfolds on them and your ears are deafened.
