    Until the Spirit from on High is Poured Upon Us.

    This thing gets way too much attention…it is ridiculous as well. God who…before “He” even threw “His” creation into it existence…new exactly how His creation would be initialized, transpire and come to its end. To think anything else is the pure folly of the carnal and immature. His original...

    Until the Spirit from on High is Poured Upon Us.

    Well that may depend upon ones perspective…didn’t Keraz define the church in this manner…”The Church is a vast conglomeration of denominations, sects and cults.” If one were to agree with him…and I do in this…then one might be inclined to answer “yes” to your question here Covenantee Redd...:)

    Until the Spirit from on High is Poured Upon Us.

    Just a some thoughts…interesting subject Covenantee…please permit me…:) “No”…is an acceptable answer…because…it had nothing to do with the “church”. However…the Lord Yahshua Christ unilaterally “replaced Israel’s physical DNA”…with His own “Spirit”…thus bringing forth the actual dwelling place...

    Does anyone want to compare Old Testament Prophecy to Revelation?

    Greetings... It's been a while...but T7T7 do agree on this...:) Just passing by...Jay...it might be advisable to consider 70 AD for the utter consummation of God taking His kingdom from Israel...it really leaves no question...He left "their house" to them..."desolate"...just as He told them...

    The Mark of The Beast Is Alive and Well in Bio-metric Technology

    Nothing...it is what it is...few and fewer will come to this. The end of the age is not about all out evangelism...no...it is about the maturing of the sons of God. Redd...:)

    The Mark of The Beast Is Alive and Well in Bio-metric Technology

    This is a fantastic definition…I particularly like…”The “buying or selling” has to do with accept (buy) satanic gospel or preach (sell) lies. It’s a spiritual war.” It puts a “distinctly clear” explanation to it…something I have been seeking for a time. It is simple…yet definitive and it...

    Does anyone want to compare Old Testament Prophecy to Revelation?

    If I understand your question about “prophetic and apostolic knowledge” here is my “basic” answer…from my experience…the grace of “prophet” in the Body of Christ today…is a function of following the voice of the Lord as it pertains to what God is planning to do…He shares it with His...

    Does anyone want to compare Old Testament Prophecy to Revelation?

    That’s a fantastic perspective…statement…question? I’ll bite…you’re talking about the difference between the way these two men perceive God. The Old Testament writers, prophets and in general the men of God seemed to have had…I need to generalize a bit here…a “mountain top” interaction with the...

    Abominations of the Earth

    During the holiday season each year many Christians engage in discussing the basis for the holiday season, specifically the holiday called “Christmas.” The word “Christmas” comes from the Latin words “CRISTES MAESSE,” meaning “Christ’s Mass.” Interestingly the word "mass" means "death...

    I see...you "Then I fell at his feet to worship him. But he *said to me, "Do not do that; I am a fellow servant of yours and your brethren who hold the testimony of Jesus; worship God. For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy." (Rev 19:10 NASB) It's not a difficult thing for those...

    Couple verses prove saved people are on the earth up until the 2nd coming of Christ, as in His actual appearing and our resurrection.

    They were bearing the mark of God..."He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he will not go out from it anymore; and I will write on him the name of My God, and the name of the city of My God, the new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God, and My...

    By citing D. S. Clark who made his commentary around 100 years ago you make two statements about your character...they are yours Arthur81 and as such you are certainly entitled to and seem comfortable with them. First...in citing Clark and his commentary from 100 years ago you are signifying...

    Couple verses prove saved people are on the earth up until the 2nd coming of Christ, as in His actual appearing and our resurrection.

    Greetings Scott Downey Liked your OP so I thought I might jump in... It would seem that your interpretation flows with what Paul said. It is the Body of Christ (humans indwelt by the Holy Spirit) and the Head (Holy Spirit) is with them. Good question Scott…building upon the context of what...

    Ok...so Arthur81...you are agreeing that John is in the heavens in proximity to the throne of God...and did you realize that the word for "temple" there in Revelation 11:1 is not the word "hieron" which is the word for a physical building with courts open to worshippers. Rather the word that is...

    Perhaps but not necessarily…a couple of things that we should note about John…Revelation 1:10 has Brother John on Patmos but “in the spirit”…meaning that his frame of reference is the “Spirit or mind of God” he is hearing a heavenly voice the one which is speaking is the Spirit. He gets the...

    Dating the NT Books

    Perhaps another perspective is available…as a “spiritual” entity…the man of sin can “sit” in the Body of Christ as a “mindset” in humans. Think…“do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good...

    Dating the NT Books

    May I insert a couple thoughts...? It may be important to consider that the Body of Christ “is” the temple of God in a “spiritual” sense. Indeed it is the “only” temple that God ever dwelt in. Whether the physical temple was standing or not…by the time Paul wrote 2nd Thessalonians the Lord...

    The falling away (of the Church), is far slower,, than men expect (selah)

    "We heard Him say, 'I will destroy this temple made with hands, and in three days I will build another made without hands.'" (Mar 14:58 NASB) "The God who made the world and all things in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands; (Act 17:24 NASB)...
