    Will there be or is there a need for a future Messianic age?

    OK, got it. See you in the millennial kingdom, or not.

    Will there be or is there a need for a future Messianic age?

    The future 1000 years refers to the millennial kingdom, and if Jesus fulfilled it, when did the heavenly host fall to Earth for their turn at life in the flesh?

    Acts 2:17-19 can anyone share their visions in the last days

    I was hoping that the consuming fire at the Lord's 2nd coming would be a spiritual one, but considering the news, I have no confidence in that outcome.

    John 8:24, 28, 58 - Jesus Christ IS YHWH

    I'm not sure that I understand the question, but maybe chapter 5 of the book of Zechariah will answer it. It gives a vision of a flying scroll that expels all perjurers, liars, and those who swear falsely in God's name.

    I'll pray that the Lord fixes your eyes.

    Will there be or is there a need for a future Messianic age?

    If that were true, we'd be observing the Feast of Tabernacles every year. Do you?

    Will there be or is there a need for a future Messianic age?

    I thought your post was about a millennial kingdom and the primary reason for such a kingdom with a temple and its practices would be the judgement of angels living under the same law that they ministered.

    Will there be or is there a need for a future Messianic age?

    You make a reasonable argument, but you're missing an important and very significant fact. The angels go through a judgment too. Paul says this himself. "Do you not know that we shall judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life? " 1 Corinthians 6:3 Paul didn't elaborate upon...

    John 8:24, 28, 58 - Jesus Christ IS YHWH

    I didn't mention my doctrinal perspective on Exodus 33:20. It occurred to me (or I was taught by the Lord) that those who "see" Christ revealed in tbe Old Testament are born again believers with His Spirit. The Apostle Paul speaks to us who believe as being crucified with Christ, dead to self...

    John 8:24, 28, 58 - Jesus Christ IS YHWH

    As a child the verse where God identified Himself as the only Savior actually disturbed my belief in Christ, because my simple and carnal mind could only see contradiction. I continued reading scripture for many years unable to reconcile the person of Christ to the God of the Old Testament...

    John 8:24, 28, 58 - Jesus Christ IS YHWH

    Jesus said that God the Father is Spirit, but the Holy Spirit has limitations imposed upon Him (if I'm understanding Christ). Jesus said that He, the Holy Spirit, is One like Him, but takes of what is His (Christ's) and gives it to us and that all that is the Father’s is His. I think that this...

    John 8:24, 28, 58 - Jesus Christ IS YHWH

    Yes, and Jesus, testing a young man, asked him, "why do you call me good?" The cults love that passage and claim that Jesus was denying His divinity rather than seeking an acknowledgement of His person, as He did with His disciples when He asked them, "who do you say I am?" He knew the rock...

    John 8:24, 28, 58 - Jesus Christ IS YHWH

    This is exactly what I was referring to. Spiritual truth can only be discerned by those who have the Holy Spirit, the witness of Christ within them. Spiritual truth isn't arrived at by dissecting a passage like some dead thing, but by comparing scripture to scripture, comparing Spiritual to...

    John 8:24, 28, 58 - Jesus Christ IS YHWH

    I'm still trying to wrap my mind around the idea that the invisible immortal God, who is identified by Christ as "spirit" can look like anything. The people that deny the deity of Christ tend not to answer questions that require a spiritual understanding to reconcile scripture to scripture, and...

    It's about "relationship"...right?

    Well, maybe. Matthew 24:12-13 doesn't identify the "many" as saints, you have.

    John 8:24, 28, 58 - Jesus Christ IS YHWH

    Yes, but Moses asked to see His glory and Jesus is identified as the radiance of His glory. Scripture doesn't tell us the reason for this prohibition, but I suspect it has something to do with the commandment prohibiting images. It's interesting that though many people witnessed Jesus the Christ...

    John 8:24, 28, 58 - Jesus Christ IS YHWH

    So, you're admitting that Jesus is Yah havah? Or you're standing on ignorance and justifying it with a verse out of context that is entirely irrelevant to "the mind of Christ?"

    John 8:24, 28, 58 - Jesus Christ IS YHWH

    Yes, identified in scripture as the Holy one of Israel, which is also another self identification, as scripture says God alone is Holy. There isn't just one verse that identifies Jesus as God, the entire Bible equates Jesus with God. Let's look at one simple example. 18 No man hath seen God at...

    John 8:24, 28, 58 - Jesus Christ IS YHWH

    Of course it isn't. You don't need to identify the deity of God.

    John 8:24, 28, 58 - Jesus Christ IS YHWH

    16 These are the names of the men which Moses sent to spy out the land. And Moses called Oshea the son of Nun Jehoshua. Numbers 13:16 3 The Lord thy God, he will go over before thee, and he will destroy these nations from before thee, and thou shalt possess them: and Joshua, he shall go over...
