    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    Are you sure you want to claim that it wasn't? I have complete confidence and certainty that God's Empowerment of His Early Church was more than abundant to enable them to preach His Gospel to "all nations" before 60 AD, as defined and declared by Christ and Paul in Matthew 24:14 and Romans...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    FAMINES, PESTILENCES, EARTHQUAKES The Bible records that there was famine “throughout all the world. . . in the days of Claudius Caesar” (Acts 11:28). Judea was especially hard hit by famine. “The disciples, every man according to his ability, determined to send relief unto the brethern which...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    No offense intended, bro. Thought I'd inject a little humor. We're still almost clones. :laughing: So Paul is right whether he's talking about all literal nations, or whether he's talking about all nations of the known world. And he's confirming the associated prophecy of Jesus in Matthew...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    "Wars, rumors of wars, and commotions were of a general nature. These things were not signs of the end; to the contrary, they were given to show that the end was NOT yet. None of these things would be the sign which would cause the disciples to flee into the mountains." Isn't that what you're...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    Disciple Thomas went to India in 52 AD and was slain there in 72 AD. What's wrong with the evidence of the Gospel reaching Britain that I provided?

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    OK. Permit me to cite Bro. Woodrow below. Then back to "all nations". Since you apparently disagree with Paul's definition of "all nations", then is his definition wrong, or is your definition wrong? WARS AND RUMORS OF WARS We are told that when Jesus gave this prophecy, the Roman Empire...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    Scripture and history record the numerous countries that the disciples, Paul, and other Christian missionaries visited and preached in during missionary journeys between Christ's first coming and Paul's epistles. Together they comprised all of the nations of the world to which Paul referred in...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    What kind of evidence do you need? I've cited the multiple sources. Undoubtedly there are more. For those which may be incorrect, there are others which are correct. Ultimately it's Paul whom you would need to prove incorrect.

    The Four Stages of Mankind's Redemption:

    So you think that historical Christian orthodoxy is Romanism. Talk about confused. :laughing:

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    Still trying to dispel the disbelief that the Gospel was preached to all nations in Paul's era. There's no point continuing until we get past that. More evidence: Apostle Peter who, after visiting Milan, had "passed over to the island of Britain, now called England, (where) he spent many...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    Here's the entirety of my previous post, which furnishes additional Scriptural evidence. Christ's and Paul's use of the identical expression and words "all nations" and their contexts leaves no reason to believe that the meaning and scope of "all nations" was any different between Christ's and...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    Are they the same as this "ye"? Matthew 24 2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    Christ's and Paul's use of the identical expression and words "all nations" and their contexts leaves no reason to believe that the meaning and scope of "all nations" was any different between Christ's and Paul's use of it. Christ's prophecy encompassed the time frame from when He issued it to...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    Matthew 24 6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. Who is/are "ye" in verse 6?

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    Hey bro, we can't always be clones, that would be no fun. :laughing: Paul's epistles use two or three different words for world/earth. But in Romans 16:26 he uses the word nations, and it is the same word that Christ uses at Olivet. 1484 [e] ethnesin ἔθνεσιν ; nations N-DNP And in both...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    Re. Matthew 24:14 is anyone going to tackle these? 1. What is the explanation for Paul's declarations that the gospel had penetrated globally in his day? 2. Why is the word for "end" not "sunteleia", consistent with its usage in verse 3? The reality, brethren, is that Matthew 24:14-21 (and...

    The Four Stages of Mankind's Redemption:

    You don't know the father of the futurism that deceives you? For shame. :laughing: You didn't because there's no rebuttal of Christ the Divine Intercessory Mediator of His Completely Fulfilled New Covenant. Not of your dangling semi-covenant more than 2,000 years old and counting interminably.

    The Four Stages of Mankind's Redemption:

    So you should be able to tell us all about Francisco Ribera. :laughing: You didn't, but that's no surprise, as you have no Scriptural rebuttal for it.

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    Then: 1. What is the explanation for Paul's declarations that the gospel had penetrated globally in his day? 2. Why is the word for "end" not "sunteleia", consistent with its usage in verse 3?
