But who knew the name of the Lord before Abram? My understanding is that the covenant name wasn't even given to men until the Lord spoke with Moses.

Let me rephrase my question. How were people saved before Abram? Did the Lord just cast those millions into hell?

I'm not trying to be obstinate about this, but what I meant is that while you see watchman used in regard to a prophet (Ezekiel) you don't find the term used in the "offices" of the church, because prophesy is a gift of the Spirit not limited to an "office" and the gifts weren't distributed...

And the last 2 witnesses?

What is it about "absolutely " that you don't understand ?

No, tribulation is all about the judgment of all flesh as was the flood (and about salvation). The book of the Revelation talks about a whole lot of saints that come out of the tribulation, not just 144 thousand. 13Then one of the elders asked me, “These in white robes—who are they, and where...

By the way, I dont know if the Hebrew has a word for lightning. Lightning, very high current electrical discharge, frequently produces fire. I've seen electricians that were badly burnt while working on high power sources through "arc flashes." There's a verse in scripture somewhere about...

Okidoki, but I don't know that there's really a distinction between a watchman and a prophet. I've heard this before, but haven't actually seen it in scripture. Was Jonah a watchman or a prophet? I only ask because he preached " yet 40 days and Ninevah will be destroyed ". It happened...

Davy my friend, I did address you about your treatment of Charity, but the post that you just quoted wasn't a response to you either. That's part of the reason I asked that the prior thread be locked, too much confusion, not enough trust, not enough faith in the Holy Spirit's service as the teacher.

Wouldn't have a problem with it. People on this site have trampled on my testimony, implied that I was heretic, a liar, a tare, and lots of wonderfully faithless things. I've encountered more opposition from people that I've helped to grow in the faith, than from the vile mouthed and carnal...

Absolutely. You don't?

Powerful argument brother. Are you sure that you're not a prophet? Getting the church back on track has always been the work of the prophet. I haven't a clue who decided that it was "revelation" as that was always secondary to the purposes of God calling, preparing, and sending the prophets to...

Do you think that scripture is fulfilled only physically? Will a scroll with curses on both sides fly through the air and enter the houses of thieves, liars, and those who swear falsely in the name of God? That's the literal physical interpretation of the passage about the flying scroll. Those...

How were people "saved" before the gospel?

You tend to be on the defensive a wee bit and I'm not sure just why you're responding to these comments. Did I address you? Was it your post that I responded to ( I don't actually recall, but I thought it was to another believer and former teaching pastor?) I don't even know what you...

Hello brother. I know that you're an excellent scholar, but much of your statements seem like carnal interpretations of the prophetic rather than spiritual ones. This is why I don't like dogmatism in scriptural interpretation. The word of God is a two edged sword and how we handle it reveals...

Exactly, my dear brother, but the everlasting gospel is not the gospel of salvation, but the gospel of life. His commandment is life and He sets the prisoners free. We'll go to the last chapter of the Revelation next, but I have errands to run. God bless you friend and God bless the study to...

Thank you so much brother. The primary reason for "mining" out the source and implications of the everlasting gospel is to bring down the heavenly host to judgment and placing the last of His enemies on the ground of judgment, and under His feet. I'm talking greater works indeed.

Just wanted to report that when looking for news this morning, I came upon Creflo Dollar teaching about the renewing of our minds with sound doctrine. Hallelujah. I recant my witness upon Him and praise the Lord for his growth in Christ Jesus. Amen.

How do we know that those in sheol are damned if they were entirely outside the covenant of Law? These are difficult verses and I suspect it may take some time to get to all the answers, but let's look at Peter 3:19 in context ( and the language seems obtuse to me.) 18 For Christ also suffered...
