    BEWARE OF THE SPIRITUALIZERS HERE

    At what point do we determine that the words don’t really mean what they say and change them to say what the Holy Spirit should’ve inspired Paul to write? Is it possible that Paul and the Holy Spirit knew more about the subject than you? By believing what Paul wrote exactly as Paul wrote the...

    Question for Premils (Amils welcome to answer): How many times are the dead judged?

    Either you refuse to read verses or your reading comprehension is terrible. The house is the TABERANCLE the soul lives in, the house isn’t heaven. The house is IN heaven waiting for this earthly house to be dissolved. Grammatically, yes — the verse says the house is already possessed. The...

    BEWARE OF THE SPIRITUALIZERS HERE

    There you go adding words to the Bible again because it doesn’t line up with your gospel. Did you know that just a wee bit of leaven will leaven the whole lump? It does and when you carry that leaven to the next verse you taint that verse until you end up with a gospel that doesn’t even...

    Question for Premils (Amils welcome to answer): How many times are the dead judged?

    If what you propose were true, that would mean that Thomas is in heaven right now. That means that Thomas would have to come to earth and be present when Jesus comes again. Is this not correct?

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    I know the Bible talks about the destruction of Jerusalem but the Bible doesn’t doesn’t record any events that took place in 70 AD. Anything we know or think we know about 70 AD is pure speculation that comes from history. As the famous quote goes “History is a lie agreed upon”.

    Question for Premils (Amils welcome to answer): How many times are the dead judged?

    I’m not arguing against what you’re saying but right now that’s not something I want to invest time deep diving into.

    Question for Premils (Amils welcome to answer): How many times are the dead judged?

    The first verse would help. If our earthly house were dissolved we HAVE (present tense) a heavenly house. 2Co 5:1 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. Chargpt question - Based...

    Question for Premils (Amils welcome to answer): How many times are the dead judged?

    I don’t recall and I can’t find any thing in the Bible that says they had bodies or that they didn’t have bodies. I think a concensus can be made from various scriptures to say that they didn’t but that’s just my opinion and not something I would want to dive into right now.

    Question for Premils (Amils welcome to answer): How many times are the dead judged?

    Good point I’ll have to dig into that. I may believe that because I’m still carrying dispensational baggage. I’ll report back after I study it a little bit. Thanks for bringing that to my attention.

    BEWARE OF THE SPIRITUALIZERS HERE

    Paul includes himself in “those who are alive and remain” at the coming of the Lord. How is Paul one of those who are alive and remain if Jesus still hasn’t returned?

    Question for Premils (Amils welcome to answer): How many times are the dead judged?

    The Old Testament saints went to Abraham’s bosom without glorified bodies. As soon as Christ was resurrected, they were given heavenly bodies. Nobody goes to heaven without a heavenly body.

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    The Bible doesn’t record anything that happened in 70 AD so I seriously doubt Luke is talking about anything that happened in 70 AD. I’m reasonably sure the armies surrounding Jerusalem mentioned in Luke is Joel’s army.

    Blah blah blah. You sound like WPM when he can’t defend his position.

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    If your looking for the title “These be the days of vengeance” in any Old Testament passage, you’re not going to find it. But when you read about God coming down from heaven to avenge the murder of His son, you don’t need a title to understand that those things in Psalm 18 are describing the...

    BEWARE OF THE SPIRITUALIZERS HERE

    The only reason you’re saying “he was speaking generally” is because the words DO NOT say what you need them to say to support your gospel. What you just admitted was that yes you agree that those verses are saying that Jesus comes back for us individually BUT you don’t care what the words...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    Here’s what we 100% know for sure happened when the day of Gods vengeance started. Psa 18:4 The sorrows of death compassed me, and the floods of ungodly men made me afraid. Jesus dies on the cross. Psa 18:5 The sorrows of hell compassed me about: the snares of death prevented me. Jesus in...

    BEWARE OF THE SPIRITUALIZERS HERE

    Jesus told the disciples: “I will come again, and receive you unto myself.” This is a personal promise to the disciples. The disciples have been in heaven for 2,000 years and they were not taken as a group, they each died separately. Since the disciples are already in heaven, this cannot...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    The earthquake and unearthed dead bodies were only the start of the days of vengeance. There’s no way we can know when people fled Jerusalem because the Bible doesn’t tell us. It seems to me the whole point of that verse is to warn people to not be in Jerusalem during the days of vengeance.

    BEWARE OF THE SPIRITUALIZERS HERE

    The Bible says in no uncertain terms that Jesus comes for the believer at his death. Jhn 14:3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    Im not aware of the Bible saying anything about what the people did during the upheaval of the earth around the murder of Jesus. I would assume people fled Jerusalem when it started but I can’t say for sure because the Bible doesn’t say one way or another.
