"Paradigm" stems from Greek: παρα = "beyond" δεικνυμι = "to show" Hence "model demonstrating a concept." Also "two dimes," as noted in the picture.

<Jehoshaphat> Jehoshaphat is in the Kidron Valley, near Jerusalem.. The plain of Megiddo is the landing spot, and the battle perhaps then veers toward Jerusalem. Jerusalem is an ancient city, going back to around 3000 B.C. It had no particular connection to God, until God chose it (Jeremiah...

Rockerduck noted: <already did reject Israel> Not going to happen ever. "Disperse" does not equate to "reject." Check out Nehemiah 1:9, Ezekiel 37:21. Israel became a nation in 1973, the only time in history that an ancient city has come back into existence.

"Church" is an English rendering of Greek εκκλησια, stemming from: o εκ = "from, out of" o καλεω = "call" o i.e. "(those) called." This reflects the words of Jesus in John 14:6: "No man comes to me unless the Father *calls* him."

"Deliverance of Israel" begs the question "From what?" Zechariah 14:2 describes armies set against Israel. See also Joel 3:1-2. Revelation sets the battle field as the plain of Αρμαγεδων (Armageddon, Hebrew הר מגדון) i.e. the plain at the head of tell ("mount") Megiddo. Been there, seen it...

"But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only." (Matthew 24:36) But we do know when it will *not* happen: "...the Lord will come suddenly to his temple." (Malachi 3:1). No temple, no return of Jesus.

Rockerduck noted: <rejected Judea forever> Check out Amos 9:11-15. God will never reject His chosen people. BTW: o The first Christians were Jewish. o Most of the New Testament authors were Jewish. o The apostle Paul, who wrote much of the New Testament, is Jewish. o Luke is a gentile, but...

Some thoughts: o The father of the faith is Abraham. o Abraham lived and died many years before Jesus. o Therefore Abraham was not a Christian. o However Abraham saw the day of Christ and rejoiced (John 8:56). o "Christ" is an English rendering of Greek Χριστος (Christos). o Χριστος = "anointed...

IMO: I fully agree, if God did not control every atom in this universe, He would not be God (Romans 9:19). We are all actors in a play, and God wrote the script (Genesis 1:1 ).

Rockerduck noted: "Jews no longer chosen." Amos 9:14-15: indicates the Jews are God's people.

IMO the Jews did not bring forth the Christ, rather Jesus was brought about by the Holy Spirit (Luke 1:35). God *sent* his only Son Jesus, second person of the trinity. (John 3:16)

The seven Jewish holidays reflect seven acts of the Messiah. 1. Passover: Slain as a lamb. 2. Unleavened Bread: Sinless body in the tomb. 3. First fruits: First fruits from the grave. 4. Pentecost: Sends the Spirit. 5. Day of Trumpets...

A civilian tower at a home was used for storage (Luke 14:28). Fortresses would also have towers (Psalm 61:3). IMO: A tower has no relation to the Jewish temple itself. There might be a tower nearby to guard the temple. If you disagree then I suggest you cite a reference that says the temple...

IMO: Jesus said, "I and the Father are one." To speak of God is to speak of Father, Son, Spirit. The Bible says: o In the beginning GOD created the heavens and the earth o and the SPIRIT of God was hovering o and God SAID" GOD = Father SAID = Jesus (Word of God, c.f. John 1:1) SPIRIT= Holy...

God will never abandon His chosen people Israel (Psalm 94:14).

A tower in this context is likely a personal storage building.

The seven Jewish holidays celebrate seven acts of the Messiah: o Passover: slain as a lamb (Is 53:7) o Unleavened Bread: he had done no violence (Is 53:9) o First Fruits: not permit holy one to decay (Psalm 16:10) o Pentecost: pour out my Spirit on all flesh (Joel 2:28) o Trumpets: coming with...

The Romans destroyed the Jewish second temple in 70 A.D. The Babylonians destroyed the Jewish first temple in 587 B.C.

o. Satan has been here many years. o. See Ezekiel 28:16. o. See also Isaiah 14:12. o. "Cast down from heaven" IMO occurred soon after earth's creation.

Jay Ross explained: <Satan is imprisoned deep in the earth> That is noted in Revelation 20:1-3. He is imprisoned during the 1000-years reign of Jesus, solitary confinement.
