Jesus said "my kingdom is not of this world" and in the scriptures above it says Jesus will sit upon the throne forever. Please give me the scriptures that point out an earthly kingdom, I can't find it.

Act 1:6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? At this time the Jews were under the control of Rome. In order to restore the kingdom to Israel the king would have to be a son of David. Jesus was that...

Act 2:37 hades (grave) Act 2:31 hades (grave) Jam 3:6 geenee (a valley of Jerusalem) 2Pet 2:4 tartaroo (the deepest abyss of hades) the angels that sinned were cast down here, could not be the place of flames and torment, for they were cast down there to be reserved for punishment. Hell in...

To really love of God the following is needed. Mat 18:3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. We need to obey God without question. Mat 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall...

Scripture should be interpreted according to bible hermeneutics. To answer your question we must be born again because we are all born dead spiritually. Remember God told Adam not to eat of the tree of knowledge or he would die that day. We know his body did not die so it was his spirit self...

All scripture was hand written and delivered to the people that it pertained to. In the Old Testament, that would be the Jews. In the New Testament, that would be the churches of that time. None of it was delievered directly to us. Does that mean it is not for us? No, but prophecy comes to...

John, Without the bible we would have no way to know God. Just because it is not addressed to us, does not mean it is not for us. Can we tell the difference, certainly, if we read with understanding. For example: Mat 23:13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up...

My conversion, My mother was a preacher’s daughter. When I was born my grandfather was the pastor at a local Pentecostal church. By the time I started school my grandparents had moved out of state. Since my mother did not attend any church, about the only time I would go is when my...

To all: Rev_20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their...

God's word is true. How one interprets it is not always what is said. I have tried to make the point that there is no scripture written to us or any generation after the disciples'. The new Jerusalem has come down and God will not return to the Jew of his day. We are the children of Abraham and...

This comment of yours is the only one I agree with. Scripture does not give a strong clue as to whom it might be that would stand in the temple, but it happened in or before 70 AD or it is not going to happen. Read with understanding, Be blessed

Now, do we have anything else in scripture that speaks of such an event? I think we do. Remember, the Olivet discourse is a “condensed” version of the Book of Revelation. Both seem to parallel each other as far as the “main events” are concerned (wars, famine etc. etc), and, here comes the...

Hi uppsaladragby, My point is about God using 'this' generation in the old testament and Jesus using 'this' generation in the new testament. The word 'this' means something right here and now. In the old testament it was the generation that Moses and those with him that was 'this' generation...

williemac in black print - Rocky Wiley in blue print They asked Jesus about the end of the world. He told them about it. He did not include the temple being destroyed at the time of the end. He began by telling them it would be destroyed. Their question came afterward. They may well have...

UppsalaDragby, You are thinking and trying to answer questions with scripture and that is how one should study God’s word. Now allow me to ask a question using scripture. Num_14:33 And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your whoredoms, until your carcases be...

What is the name that is above every name. Php_2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: Act_4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Php_2:10 That...

Rom_3:20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. Those that sin without knowledge is not biblical since the laws were given. Some may not have the knowledge of God, but we are responsible to impart that...

enoch, Most don't even believe that much. Here is an earlier post I made. http://www.christianityboard.com/topic/19417-the-abomination-of-desolation-spoken-of-by-daniel-the-prophet/

The tribulation came first, then the destruction of the temple (in Jerusalem) then the resurrection of the dead.

When Jesus told the disciples that the temple would be destroyed, he was speaking about the temple that they had just mentioned to him. That was the one where the Jews offered daily sacrifices. Read with understanding and Be blessed
