Define "mainstream dispensationalism" please? FYI....Dispensationalist author Harry A. Ironside* wrote a book that promoted this idea, called The Great Parenthesis the mystery in Daniel’s prophecy. Ironside said, “I believe it can be shown from Scripture that this Great Parenthesis is the true...

I believe that Dispensationalism is a heretical doctrine that has infiltrated the church since the early 1800's and should be discussed in this forum. I had been "on the fence" for some time; reluctant to brand it so seriously. However, after recently reading a critique of the book 'Wrongly...

- Jesus, at first, said Lazarus "was sleeping."...asleep is always a term that is used for believers in Christ. It was because Lazarus was a believing Jew that Jesus used that term. He would not have used it for a Sadducee because they did not believe in the resurrection. "Saints" is another...

Why should anyone distinguish between Jews and the church of God if God's word forbids it in many places - even in 1 Corinthians 10:32? First we should compare the parallel verses of 1:22-24 with 1 Corinthians 10:32 because Chapter 10 makes Chapter 1 much more clearer as to what Paul really is...

Still waiting for those verses from the NT. There only 2 verses in Revelations that use the word "sacrifices" and they are definitely not verification for reinstating sacrifices to Jesus Christ that's for sure.... 1)Rev 2:14...But I have a few things against thee: that thou hast there those...

How is helping a whole lot of people with [edited - added: Scofield's] Bible Study notes if his notes are not Biblicaly sound? Example: Not one person can find a verse in the New Testament that clearly says the "sacrifices will be reinstated" nor a direct "mandate from God to build Him a fourth...

I didn't think you would have a good answer to Jesus' words...but that is your choice. I choose not to be indoctrinated into a false system of man's own imagination.

But Darby never attended a seminary or any other Bible College. Yet I see you totally avoided my post altogether.

How is helping a whole lot of people with his Bible Study notes if his notes are not Biblicaly sound? Example: Not one person can find a verse in the New Testament that clearly says the "sacrifices will be reinstated" nor a direct "mandate from God to build Him a fourth temple" when scripture...

I don't believe that the 70 divinely inspired Septuagint translators of the Greek language conspired to discredit Paul's epistles at all. That is an opinion that has no foundation to it. As far as the author of Galatians goes, it was definitely written by Paul and as far as I know, no one...

Bruce, I quoted the line that said that "At one time the author, who is not named, was thought to be Paul; but scholars today agree that the author is unknown" from the Jewish/Christian oriented 'Tree of Life" Bible because of who the audience was that the Bible was written to. But I also added...

Thank you for your response to my questions. Based on your answer I did some research on the Bibles we have in our home library that has the "Introduction" to the Book of Hebrews and this below is just one Bible that I chose only for the reason that it is a Bible that was written for Jewish...

Please clarify that for me as there can only be two options as I see it. Do you believe the Book of Hebrews was: 1- written to Hebrews who accepted Christ as their Savior? or 2- written to Hebrews who had never received Christ as their Savior? Thanks.

"AFTER THOSE DAYS" Deuteronomy 30:6 "And the LORD your God will circumcise your heart and the heart of your offspring, so that you will love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul, that you may live." It was Abraham's "circumcision of the heart" of which justification...

'MY PEOPLE' verses: The OT prophecy people who are to be joined to "his people" that existed at the time is fulfilled in the NT: Zec 2:11 - And many nations shall join themselves to the LORD in that day, and shall be my people; and I will dwell in the midst of you, and you shall know that the...

You say there are no Gentiles in the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob? Scripture says there most definitely is. Therefore, I have 3 brief comments about what you posted: 1- In regards to the NEW COVENANT with the 'house' of Israel and Judah, I suggest you read my post #'s 392, 398, 402...

All "study Bibles" with notes at the bottom are written by people who wish to promote a specific "doctrine" such as is in the Darby Bible. That KJV Bible is published with notes that John Nelson Darby alone used to promote his "theory of Dispensationalism". He was not a theologian nor an...

The day of Pentecost marks the birth of the New Testament Church and we find the account of the events that took place on that day in Acts 2. The chapter starts by describing the coming of the Holy Spirit upon the faithful believers, apostles and disciples of Jesus, gathered in Jerusalem in the...

I don't "suppose" they were there. Look at the map and see how many of those are in the list of the attendees on the Day of Pentecost. There is also an OT reference of Isaiah where God says he will bring men from that same list into Acts... Isa 11:10-12 "In that day the root of Jesse shall...

I gave you ample truthful information from scripture that can you either accept or reject. They were there. It was the busiest time of the year for all Jews let alone the leaders. They were required to provide sacrifices for their tribe upon pain of death from God if they did not show up for...
