    "That Wicked" has problems!

    Nice try at insult but a fail, Earburner. I explained that I was merely addressing VictoryinJesus' skepticism over each of the gates of the New Jerusalem being made from a single pearl. Who can say which is the "most important part" of any Scripture? In any case, it is presumptuous to think...

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    As He will do with Israel in the future. I didn't quote all of the passage because I was merely countering your skepticism about the gates of the New Jerusalem.

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    I am a Gentile Christian, but, any particular Gentile Christian could be a descendant of one of the Tribes of Israel. God knows where every single one is and will bring them back to the Land and unite them with the children of Israel who are already there. There will be no pretenders--only...

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    If the Lord could turn water into wine, surely He could manage to make a gate purely of a single pearl, in His preparation of the New Jerusalem. The problem with you and other "spiritualizers" is that you apparently don't believe in miracles. Therefore, most everything must be explained in...

    Should I be rebaptised?

    God has given us His word. Those who are under the leading of the Holy Spirit will interpret it correctly. But, sometimes Christians get preconceived notions of how things "should" be and see everything in light of that, disregarding the leading of the Holy Spirit on specific areas of...

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    No "fury" just strong disagreement. I don't do "fury" or "rage"--sorry. . Not at all. It is there in the Scriptures (which you never address). No matter how much you deny it, God will do what He has promised. You are awfully sure of yourself for someone who has it as wrong as you do...

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    Of course He did, but it was not "cleft". You are yet again spritiualizing what is a literal description of what will happen to the geography of the region when He comes, in His second visitation, to earth. He made it clear in the following statements that He was speaking of dividing people...

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    Even if half the people on the website "liked" what you post, all it would mean is that they are as antisemitic as you are. There has ALWAYS been a strong vein of antisemitism in many churches from shortly after the Resurrection--especially the Roman Catholic "church". The fact that 18...

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    According to one Messianic ministry to the Jews, there are 2.5 million Jewish believers in Messiah Yeshua worldwide. There are also many, many descendants of the "lost tribes" who have been living as Gentiles worldwide. A great many of them are undoubtedly Christians. As they become...

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    It is quite arrogant to presume that only you are hearing from the Holy Spirit. You still have not addressed the contrary points I have made against your antisemitic posts. . The earthly Kingdom of God is not in place yet--correct. However, the only way that we can know what the future holds...

    How were the O T saints saved?

    They were actually EXPECTING the Messiah to come at the time of His first visitation. The only problem is that the Jews were expecting a "conquering king" rather than the "suffering servant".

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    What makes you think that I haven't? We are also to seek to accommodate ALL relevant Scripture in our interpretations. We really aren't supposed to cherry-pick our favorite Scriptures to "prove" our point. I guess, in your case, that would be that you are trying to prove that the Church has...

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    One of the first rules of proper Bible interpretation is that the text should always be taken literally, unless to do so, produces an absurdity. The Book of Revelation is specific as to the measurements of the New Jerusalem which comes down out of heaven at the end of the Final Judgment. The...

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    God the Father and the Son will dwell at the center of the New Jerusalem and be the source of its light. Will the New Jerusalem not be a structure?

    Neither is greater than the other.

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    Judgment on Israel was imminent when Isaiah prophesied the judgment that would soon be occurring. But God also announced through His prophet (Isaiah 49:13-17) that a nursing mother could forget about her baby before He could forget Israel. He said, in fact, that He had engraved their names on...

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    What makes you think that just because it has been around longer, it must mean that it is the "mother of harlots"? Jerusalem is also called, "The City of the Great King". Jesus was greatly distressed as He saw the near future for Jerusalem. There is no mention of Him caring about any other...

    Didn't say that it was.

    "That Wicked" has problems!

    Yes--I never denied that the Blood of Jesus was necessary to save all. But, when you say that God cannot do something new with Israel, you are denying God's sovereignty and ignoring His promises to Israel (which do NOT require obedience to come to fruition). Paul said in Romans 11:29--> "For...

    Was David lying?

    You are correct, God said, that He is not a man that He should lie--therefore, He expects us to always be more and more like Him and not, as a general rule, tell lies. But, considering the circumstances (and they were few and far between) to tell the truth would have resulted in a much greater...
