That is NOT exegesis, XtraPercept. What do the actual WORDS of this verse mean--in their context. Why will no one address this? Yes, "His word is a magnificent blessing," BUT we must know what it clearly says in order to be blessed. You are avoiding doing that. I HAVE sought "its definition."...

You are still avoiding the text. I will assume that you do not know how to exegete it.

WILL you look at the text? Please give its meaning in its context, dealing with the WORDS. This thread is not about opinions. It's about the VERSE and ITS meaning. Do you know how to analyze a Bible passage?

I didn't say that the sickness was apostasy. My point is that too many Christians do not know how to study the Bible and rely heavily upon the heretical system developed by John Nelson Darby in the mid-1800s. That false paradigm was picked up in the 1900s by men like C. I. Scofield through his...

WHAT does Hebrews 10:37 mean, Scott? What was the event that was happening in THAT day "in a very, very little while"? The Book of Hebrews was written shortly before A. D. 70 (ca 64-69). It was to THAT time that the writer appealed. THEY knew the GENERATION is which their Lord would come to...

I don't know what questions you're talking about. You can ignore me all you want. The truth remains. Jesus meant those of His own day when He said " I don't what questions you're talking about? What heretical beliefs? I simply post the words of Jesus. Heresy falls upon those who deny what He...

But many, many members of the Church will never come to the truths of the Word of God until they follow the words of the Apostle Paul and become "workers not needing to be ashamed, RIGHTLY DIVIDING the Word of Truth" (2 Tim. 2:15). There is absolutely NO reasaon for anyone who claims to be a...

How can you give an exegesis of Hebrews 10:37 (the very topic of this thread) if you haven't studied it? Please come back WHEN you become familiar with "the titular passage or it's (sic) context." Without doing that, XtraPercept, how can you know what "goal" it points to? "In due time,"...

"THIS generation will by no means pass away until ALL THESE THINGS take place." Your problem is not with me--it is with Jesus and His CLEAR words. You rebel against His truth. That is not a small thing.l

:Ohz:rolleyes:o_O:confusedOH, Lord help me. You futurists think that you can wipe away EVERY time statement and time word with an appeal to 2 Peter 3--which, by the way, does NOT teach what you twist it to teach. This is too sad for me. When will I learn that I cannot come on forums and expect...

"Jesus' future coming is what shall not be delayed"???????????? Two thousand years and counting isn't "delayed"?????? What are you talking about? That is not what the verse says, Davy. It clearly states; "In a very, very little while." That is from the time of the writer's own day and the...

This kind of skirting around the CLEAR context of Hebrews 10:37 (which I meticulously outlined in my post to Exegesis) is, sadly, exactly what I expected. Have you read the Book of Hebrews? It is ALL ABOUT CHRIST, the HIGH PRIEST of the BETTER COVENANT that was to come and predicted by...

The words speak for themselves. They are so clear, a child could understand them. But they don't fit your preconceived ideas, so you force a different meaning upon them--upon CHRIST'S own words! He said, "THIS generation will by no means pass away untill ALL THESE THINGS take place" (Mat...

That is not the context--not even close. The emphasis of the Book of Hebrews is CHRIST as the Perfect High Priest. Beginning with chapter 7, the writer deals with the insufficiency of the earthly priesthood. If the Levitical priesthood had been perfect, "what further need would there have been...

Scripture for this judgment of the Gentiles? This was accomplished in Paul's own day when the Gospel went out to the Gentiles and many were saved. God made of the two (Jew and Gentile) "one new man" (Eph. 2). Paul addressed this clearly when he spoke predominantly to the Gentile believers in...

That is not what I was asking for, Lizbeth. I wanted you to try to support your suppositions with Scripture. You have given general statements that could apply to several if not many passages. As for my study of the Scriptures, I have both formal and personal training. I graduated from Grace...

The Book of Revelaton was written PRIOR to A. D. 70. If you choose to take the late date, you still have the same TIME problem. Please point out the things that took place SHORTLY and were NEAR after A. D. 90 the fit the contents of the vision.

Hebrews 10:37 "In a very, very little while He who is coming will come and will not delay." For many years, I have asked fellow Christians to deal with this verse. I do not recall having received a response from anyone. The writer of Hebrews wrote this shortly before A. D. 70 (ca 64-69)...

Lizbeth, respectfully, I would like to deal with specific passages of Scripture. You states things that I'm sure you have biblical references for, but I am left to try to figure out what they are. I'm confused about what you are expressing and why you are expressing it.

Jesus placed "the end" in the generation of those very disciples with Him. The end was part of the all things that were to happen in THEIR generation. We cannot come to an agreement because you and I are using the same terminology with different meanings. The Bible speaks of no end of the...
