    King Jesus will return at the end of this temporal age and then deliver His kingdom to God the Father

    What resurrection is Jesus referring to? What resurrection must man have part in before we die is be "accounted worthy to obtain that world"? When we have part in the resurrection from the dead when we do not marry, and never die any more, and are equal to the angels and children of God, is it...

    King Jesus will return at the end of this temporal age and then deliver His kingdom to God the Father

    This is progressively taking place from the first advent of Christ and will be complete when the last trumpet sounds. Acts 1:2-4 (KJV) Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen: To whom also he...

    When Jesus returns at the last trumpet, death will be swallowed up in victory and there will then be no more death, which will fulfill Isaiah 25:8.

    Marilyn, does it not make better sense to understand the "something better" for both us and the faithful of Old points to when we shall all receive eternal life spiritually? None could ascend to heaven a spiritual body/living soul before Christ came and made atonement for sin and defeated...

    When Jesus returns at the last trumpet, death will be swallowed up in victory and there will then be no more death, which will fulfill Isaiah 25:8.

    Paul and John write of our resurrected body that shall be raised immortal & incorruptible when the last trump sounds. But there is far more that shall be accomplished in the day/age/time when the promised Messiah would come. We must read all of the prophetic words of Isaiah and not dwell only...

    When Jesus returns at the last trumpet, death will be swallowed up in victory and there will then be no more death, which will fulfill Isaiah 25:8.

    Isaiah 25:8 (KJV) He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the LORD hath spoken it. David, I believe the prophesy of Isaiah speaks of the day of the Messiah who was...

    Daniel 7 - 10 horns....

    Who are the children of promise? Aren't the children of promise, "all Israel that shall be saved"? Why does Paul change his vocabulary? He repeatedly speaks of the nation Israel. But then Paul changes from the ethnic name called Israel, and uses the spiritual name of Jacob, why? "There shall...

    Daniel 7 - 10 horns....

    What do you mean there is no future for turning ethnic Israel to Jesus? Have they not had to date about 2,000 years of time to hear the gospel of the Kingdom of God and believe in Christ for eternal life, just as every other nation of the world has? You're trying to cut out a time for ethnic...

    Daniel 7 - 10 horns....

    To my knowledge Charlie there is only ONE way to interpret Scripture! We must allow Scripture to interpret itself, through the Spirit of Christ in us, and though I know you believe you are doing exactly that, in truth IMO you have allowed dispensationalism, possibly Zionism to influence how you...

    Daniel 7 - 10 horns....

    Where does Scripture say that God will lift the blindness from Israel in unbelief? The prophetic words of Zechariah were fulfilled when Christ sent His Spirit "of grace and supplications" on the day of Pentecost, and devout Jews from every nation under heaven heard the gospel of the Kingdom...

    Fake Pretrib claims re the early Church fathers

    The only ones without understanding are those like yourself! Those who have no understanding of the difference between tribulation and persecution God allows to come against His Church on this earth, and the TERRIBLE WRATH of God that shall come upon all who remain in unbelief!

    Fake Pretrib claims re the early Church fathers

    I wholeheartedly agree! Which is why I believe the words Christ spoke from the Mount of Olives of "great tribulation" are directed to the Church on earth as faithful Christians proclaim the gospel of the Kingdom of God unto all the nations of the world. What other entity upon the earth has...

    Daniel 7 - 10 horns....

    Charlie, I will agree that God permitted the rebuilding of the city and temple of Old after the captivity because that would be where the coming Messiah would make Himself physically known unto His people, who are thy people of faith like that of Daniel, who were the biological offspring of...

    Daniel 7 - 10 horns....

    I agree the city and temple destroyed in the captivity were rebuilt exactly as Daniel prophesies and would be inhabited by Jewish Israel (Daniel's people, also called the 'remnant') who chose to return after the 70 years of captivity. But that does not prove "thy people" referred to Jews in...

    The only source of life and the fallacy of a 'dead' human spirit being 'quickened from death'

    There is little logic in continuing this discussion with you! You've been repeatedly shown to be in error, but because you have this mindset only you alone, since you alone have not fallen under the influence of what you call "pagan false doctrine of church-ianity", is the only Christian on...

    Daniel 7 - 10 horns....

    Can you explain how this logically fits historically if "thy people" speaks of Daniel's unbelieving kinsmen according to the flesh? It makes no sense for God to send Daniel a message that He knows will not be true. Because the city and temple Daniel's biological people will rebuild along with...

    The only source of life and the fallacy of a 'dead' human spirit being 'quickened from death'

    I'm not forgetful that A&E were created without possessing the knowledge of good or evil. Christ speaks these words not to imply that He is not good, for He is God! Jesus is turning the question back on the seeker of eternal life who does not believe Christ to be God or own Him as God. So...

    Daniel 7 - 10 horns....

    You haven't really answered my question, so I'll focus on vs 1. Gabriel tells Daniel: Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting...

    The only source of life and the fallacy of a 'dead' human spirit being 'quickened from death'

    This is what I've been saying all along! What appears to have you baffled is how in the beginning when God created humankind (Adam), it was "very good", because before man disobeyed God man was created with eternal breath of life (spirit) and a body that became destined to death only AFTER...

    The only source of life and the fallacy of a 'dead' human spirit being 'quickened from death'

    This is why much of what you believe regarding the spirit and soul of which mankind are is so convoluted and that you must rely on what man (science) has said instead of believing what God has said!

    The only source of life and the fallacy of a 'dead' human spirit being 'quickened from death'

    Do you believe man ceases to be "natural man" when they are indwelt with the Holy Spirit?
