    Romans 11:25 - Partially blinded

    The old covenent required the Jews to obey and honor the Levitical ceremonies, sacrifices, offerings, etc. It they kept His laws and commands, their sin would be forgiven - until the next Day of Atonement. The new covenant requires the Jews and Gentiles to also accept the One true God but if...

    Romans 11:25 - Partially blinded

    That is so good! So the same reasons they failed to preach the One true God to the world (before the cross), pride and selfulness, continues to be a barrier to recognizing Jesus as their Messiah? God had indeed blinded, in part, ALL Israel from recognizing Jesus before the cross (everyone, both...

    Thank you for your response. This is such a difficult “mystery.”

    Romans 11:25 - Partially blinded

    i don't know if anyone will agree with this, but, to me, it does not matter what WE think who is or who isn't Israel. What we do know is that whether an individual is one of the 12 tribes, God will know who they are and will bring them back to Him.

    Book of Daniel - Relevant time periods

    First, that is such a great point to make. And God's has the ability to incorporate so much into His Words - found in Daniel and other books of course. It would probably take a chapter of its own to discuss this relationship that you brought forward. To touch on it (a very little bit) please...

    Romans 11:25 - Partially blinded

    First, thank you for the terrific response... I hope you realize that some of the comments I made were not necessarily my opinion, but instead represented questions that I was trying to solicit responses to... since I do not have the answers. But other comments are clearly mine and I will...

    Book of Daniel - Relevant time periods

    This is a perfect example of why I need to move on.... of course 476 AD was not the time of the end, it was the time when papal Rome would soon come to the top of the 4th beast kingdom.... and he (little horn) would continue until the time of the end...

    Dougg, you are absolutely right... I am so frustrated with you.... I simply wanted to DISCUSS Chapter 2 -- and the first thing to discuss was the 4 kingdoms v. your claim of 5... It was you who made a childish remark to the effect "don't start on the papacy... or something to that effect," when...

    Book of Daniel - Relevant time periods

    This is not about the EU... it is about how God is going to restore and save mankind from being in eternity without Him. This is not a secular issue... He came to sacrifice Himself for our sins... and all you have to do is to look in chapters 7 and 8 and 11 to see what Daniel has recorded that...

    I hope you do not mind, but 27b, in my study (just my opinion) does not represent satin...However, I can assure you that you are in very good company with that interpretation... in fact, I would bet the house that 99:99 % of interpreters believe just as you do.....They have determined this...

    Book of Daniel - Relevant time periods

    Yes, I meant chapter 2. Verse 8:24 is ALL ABOUT THE "DIVIDED" KINGDOM OF PAPAL ROME.... Again, there are only 4 kingdoms and the 4th kingdom is indeed pagan Rome (at the time of the Messiah) but they are slain and its body is destroyed and will be succeeded by papal Rome. Greece and pagan Rome...

    Book of Daniel - Relevant time periods

    Exactly. The 4th kingdom was pagan Rome at the time of the Messiah. They were slain and its body was destroyed (7:11), and as they were in steep decline, who was rising in power within Imperial Rome? Only one powerful force - The Christian church had spread throughout the empire... they saw...

    This is exactlty why you can not discuss Daniel -you have invested so much of your time and effort putting the above interpretation togther. You are not willing or capable of seeing anything but this invested interpretation... You cannot even entertain that there are 4 and only 4 kingdoms...

    Book of Daniel - Relevant time periods

    No, there are only 4 kingdoms but the 4th kingdom of pagan Rome will be slain and its body destroyed (7:11) around 476 AD. Who could it possibly be the succeeds them? Who represents the "divided" kingdom?" The EU? The Scriptures are about Jesus and His arrival in the last week of the...

    This was suppose to be a response to Dougg not David, sorry. You keep repeating YOUR interpretations but do not have any Scripture supporting it. I keep asking you to show me anything that says there is a 5th kingdom... and you keep coming back with nothing but your own theories .. If...

    Book of Daniel - Relevant time periods

    It is but you have made in almost all about the end times... Only the last section of Chapter 11 and all of 12 speak of the true end times - but in a very general way.. Everything before that is up to 476 AD.

    Absolutely not. No 5th kingdom... no Scripture for a 5th kingdom... That comes out only of your mind.
