    The Conundrum of Zechariah Ch. 14

    @Davy Sorry about my error in posting. I was meaning Zech. ch. 14:11 and NOT Zech. ch. 12. I tried to make the correction soon after I posted my opening statement. Zechariah 14:11 And men shall dwell in it, and there shall be no more utter destruction; but Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited...

    The Conundrum of Zechariah Ch. 14

    Final Edit: error corrected of wrong chapter posted for Zechariah. Not ch. 12 but rather ch. 14. I apologize for the confusion- Earburner To all Amillennial believers, who are not settled with visible church-ianty's indoctrinated conclusions about KJV Zechariah ch. 14. Because of our...

    The Relationship Between Israel and the Church

    Could you please clarify what you mean by "any children that existed before the fall"?? Scripture does not show of any children prior to Cain? Gen. 4:1 And [after their fall] Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord. 2 And she again...

    Let's examine Revelation 20:4 yet again.

    No one at the time of the Roman Empire knew anything of what shape the earth was, whether it was flat or a globe. It's somewhat of a moot point, since factually we all now know the Earth is a Globe. So then for those who are promoting the forever fictitious fallacy of a flat earth, it is darn...

    Let's examine Revelation 20:4 yet again.

    First and foremost the book of Revelation is not to be read and understood strictly in a chronological order. It's a prophetic book from God the Father's thoughts about the Past, Present and Future, all at the same time. Therefore, of what we read from out of Revelation, our unaided, linear...

    The Relationship Between Israel and the Church

    Again, from post #422.....Why is it that the Christian Religious denominations want to avoid speaking the truth, that the human brain/mind is THE SOUL of our being of flesh, and "the LIFE OF the flesh IS IN the blood", which is Oxygen. Lev. 17:11. Well many do have opinions about that but let's...

    Ok, then you probably didn't see my edit at the end in post #422.

    The Relationship Between Israel and the Church

    5) Of course, what I am about to say will sound outrageous, not because it is 100% logical and truthful, but rather because we all have have been duped, and then beat to a pulp by Church-ianity's supposition and mantra about it, for thousands of years!! Why is it that the Christian Religious...

    The Relationship Between Israel and the Church

    Well, a thousand years being equal to one 24 hour day is a conundrum, which is to God nothing more than a statement about Him dwelling in His Eternity, where there is NO measurement of "time" at all. 2 Peter 3:8-9 is NOT a statement about a future event in time, consisting of only a thousand...

    The Relationship Between Israel and the Church

    In the first two paragraphs of my post 408, You didn't answer my questions about what "the breath of life" is exactly from your point of view. Please be specific.

    The Relationship Between Israel and the Church

    And still, "a thousand years" (or whatever) is a simile, as @Trekson corrected me on. Therefore a simile and even a metaphor should NOT BE interpreted as being literal.

    The Relationship Between Israel and the Church

    ^ your reply to my post #408^ That's another fallacy, fabricated and promoted by erroneous thinking by alot people. Even in the past, artists paintings often show the image of God the Father having a human form. Gen. 1:26-27. However, when you do find an  image of God the Father and God the...

    The Relationship Between Israel and the Church

    I strongly disagree. "The breath of life" is oxygenated air. Nothing more, nothing less. Since in the beginning, only God has Eternal life, how did He grant, give, form and/or extend his Own Eternal life to be within all the animals upon their creation? Did He breathe into them also, the same...

    The Relationship Between Israel and the Church

    No.....Jesus Himself IS THE Resurrection, the very FIRST resurrection unto NEW life. John 11:25 Jesus said unto her, I AM the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: Please follow through in how we are to understand of HOW we "have part" in...

    The Relationship Between Israel and the Church

    Thanks for your honesty! Concerning #4, if you are in agreement with #1, you will ALWAYS wander around confused about what "the breath of life" actually is! But since you don't know, "Hell" will also be a mystery to you, in thinking of why it should be that God wants to keep people consciously...

    The Relationship Between Israel and the Church

    Well, OK..."a simile",....and my point by the Holy Spirit within me was?? NO ONE should ever interpret 2 Peter 3:9 as being a reference to prove that the "metaphor"/"simile" of a thousand years will be LITERAL!! Therefore, in your correcting me, you are admitting that in all likelihood, YOU...

    The Relationship Between Israel and the Church

    No, it's not that way at all, for us who believe and understand that the 1000 year metaphor began during the first appearance/coming of Christ. We also see that metaphor as the beginning of the Age of God's Grace, to all people, through having faith in Jesus Christ.

    The Relationship Between Israel and the Church

    After Jesus returns in all His flaming/fiery Glory, there is no such thing as an additional literal 1000 years, that church-ianity loves to call "THE Millennium". That scripture in 2 Peter 3 about "a thousand years", is a metaphor, for an unspecified amount of time during this Age of His Grace...

    The Relationship Between Israel and the Church

    I agree and never said differently. But there is more going on than what meets the eye! Satan, and the evil fallen horde with him, still have rulership of those who are of this world, and often "sits in" the potential "temples of God", their mortal bodies, as he pleases. But as for born again...
