    Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed

    Don't get me wrong, I agree to much of what you say. "That spirit of anti-christ", aka demonic possession**, does mislead many away from "making their calling and election sure/sealed", which is to literally ask for the indwelling of God's Holy Spirit. For one to ASK for the Gift of the Holy...

    Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed

    As for your understanding of Mat. 24:39-41, I have heard something similar, but I don't agree with that interpretation at all. In synopsis, it doesn't agree with the words of Luke 17:26-30. In your understanding of the Strong man, I disagree. Jesus is talking about the defeat of satan's ability...

    Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed

    I must say BL, my head was spinning there for a minute. But, it did call out what needed to be said to this thread. Thanks for the apology, and helping me understand the mistake of your post and delivery! No problem, all is forgiven

    Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed

    I see no scriptures calling or describing God's "ages" of time. I perceive that all of such that you may see, is just a fabrication of what YOU hope to see.

    Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed

    Evidently, in your estimation, Peter is just as bad as I am. 2 Peter 3:10-13. [10] But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein...

    Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed

    Then you don't understand the concept of God's Eternity and Him living in it. There is no such thing as TIME in His Eternity, AT ALL!! Therefore, past, present and future is only with us and for us, as we live in mortal** flesh, having an END. We live by the dictates of the Sun and the movement...

    Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed

    No!!! Stop saying that the "early rain" is the "GIVING" of the Holy Spirit. That is how you are messing up what you are attempting to say. The Holy Spirit is ONLY GIVEN to SEAL us unto the day of redemption. Jesus Himself IS the "latter rain". The early rain is Christ knocking OUTSIDE all the...

    Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed

    Sorry, but I do not believe that anyone is predestined to be saved,...or unsaved!! The only thing that was predestined before the foundation of the world, was the plan of God's salvation, for "whosoever WILL believe in Jesus". However, God knowing the past, present and future, all at the same...

    Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed

    WHAT?? You said what??? "Christ is NOT working to SAVE anyone else in this age"? REALLY?!!! When did this present Age of God's Grace, to have faith in Jesus, end? Please provide the necessary NT scriptures that shows your claim?

    Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed

    You still have not understood the parable of "The strongman, and He who is the Stronger". Mat. 12:29 Mark 3:27 Luke 3:21-26 Therein lies the truth of how sar

    Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed

    You still have not understood the parable of "The strongman" and He who is "the Stronger". Mat. 12:29 Mark 3:27 Luke 3:21-26 Therein lies the truth of how Satan and his evil horde "sit in" the (potential) temple(s) of God, and HOW Jesus (the Stronger) removes him, and KEEPS HIM OUT.

    Daniel 9:27 the covenant to be confirmed

    Yes!! The New Covenant is to have faith in Jesus. HE IS the NC. of God to ALL mankind, of which BEGAN from out of Jerusalem. As you know, Jesus was sent to Israel first, but they as a people REJECTED Him, their own Messiah/Savior. Therefore, God had no other recourse but to BEGIN His NC with...

    Daniel 9:27 the covenant to be confirmed

    What prophetic event, do the literal words of Jesus relate to, in this statement of Jesus: John 2 [18] Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign shewest thou unto us, seeing that thou doest these things? [19] Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy [desolate] this temple, and in...

    Daniel 9:27 the covenant to be confirmed

    Well, it could be that we both are a bit off. However, Jesus did pronounce the New Covenant with His disciples, through the giving of the symbols of the "bread" and the "wine". Heb. 9 [14] How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to...

    Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed

    That is because of your false interpretation of what the early rain and the latter rain actually are. Wrong!! Only WHEN they actually ask for the Gift of God's Holy Spirit, by answering His "knocking" from OUTSIDE the "door" of their innermost being, shall they THEN receive the Holy Spirit...

    Elect or Not Elect: Why ALL Should Be Alarmed

    The "early rain" is the Holy Spirit, dwelling OUTSIDE of an unsaved person. The HOLY Spirit of God cannot permanently take up residence within anyone, who is NOT of faith to believe that God is. Heb. 11 [6] But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe...

    Daniel 9:27 the covenant to be confirmed

    Hands that shed innocent blood, is an abomination unto God. Pilate was willing to allow Jesus to be free, but the Jews would not.

    Daniel 9:27 the covenant to be confirmed

    Jesus did confirm a Covenant with his disciples before his death, as well as after His resurrection, who was then seen by them for 40 days.

    Daniel 9:27 the covenant to be confirmed

    Absolutely not. Unfortunately, as we live out our lives in mortal flesh, "the natural man" is ever present with us, being that of our own human mind. Though we are "Born again" by the Holy Spirit, aka "the mind of Christ", many are USING their "natural man's" mind to study/interpret God's word...
