Do you think perhaps this person is a troll?

All the prophecies of Old are fulfilled and being fulfilled in this age of Gospel grace with the advent of Christ coming to earth a man. A good example of how the prophecies began to be fulfilled is with fulfillment of the prophesy of Joel at Pentecost with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on...

I don't believe I am! I'm using the entire Discourse, that speaks of all that shall come as His disciples proclaim the Gospel throughout the earth. Where you appear to zone in only on what Christ says we should look for with His coming. Which of the parables of Christ are not speaking of...

Randy, believe it or not I love having these discussions. What becomes exasperating is trying to discuss biblical doctrine without supporting what you believe from the Bible. When all we do is discuss one another's opinions without support from the Word of God we've stopped having biblical...

Not another tree, they must be grafted back into the good olive tree, and this shall only happen if they turn to Christ in faith!

Forgive me board members for being rude, but... Randy let me simply say Blah, Blah, Blah! You haven't addressed anything I've said, You simply keep using words to explain a doctrine that is to me one of the most bizarre understandings of Scripture that I have encountered. And in this community...

But the prophesy Christ tells us shall come is not limited to the signs that shall usher in the coming of Christ. How is our redemption near, even at the doors? We are, or rather have been redeemed already by the blood of the Lamb. The fig tree producing life is not the sign for when Christ...

I've discovered some like to use this title "Replacement Theology" when they have not understood the nation of Israel being two separate people. The remnant according to election of grace are called Israel, they are Christian/Messianic (no difference) Jews. The rest of Israel are those who are...

Sorry! No, I certainly did not mean to give that impression! I believe the best way to rightly understand the Word of God is through each other. Iron sharpening iron! And I do appreciate what you bring to the threads even though we are not always in agreement.

I believe Jesus is contrasting "this generation" as a beginning of those who bring forth eternal life unto all the nations of the world as they proclaim the Gospel in the power of the Holy Spirit. The fig tree, like the good olive tree representing Jews of faith, the chosen from Israel...

Now, in this age of the Gospel going into all the world through the power of the Holy Spirit is when unbelieving Jews must turn to Christ by grace through faith upon hearing the Gospel and believing in/on Christ for eternal life. No longer Jew, but Messianic Jew. A Jew who believes in Christ...

The only part in the nation of Israel that ever bears spiritual fruit for the Kingdom of God were Messianic Jews. After knowing who Christ was and that He had spiritually ushered in the Kingdom of God, those faithful Jewish saints are the first of the fruit showing the fig tree, that once...

I think what you're missing in the parable, it is about more than signs about the appearance of Christ coming again. Throughout the Discourse He speaks of what shall come to pass for disciples in every generation, beginning with those whom He was speaking to, as we faithfully proclaim the...

I never suggested the fig and olive trees meant "all" trees. I said: "There is two trees found in the New Testament that represent the spiritual Kingdom of God, the fig tree & the good olive tree." It's a simple TRUE statement that in the New Testament both the fig and GOOD olive tree are...

You're forgetting about the fact that Christ cursed the fig tree that represented the nation of Israel, saying the fig tree (nation of Israel) would never again bear fruit. You present God as being contradictive, which cannot be! Matthew 21:19 (KJV) And when he saw a fig tree in the way, he...

There is two trees found in the New Testament that represent the spiritual Kingdom of God, the fig tree & the good olive tree. Though all the trees bring forth new growth in season, in His parable Christ makes special mention only of the "fig tree" beginning to bud as a sign the faithful Church...

All signs the Kingdom of God has come. There is another reason we know Christ came in His Kingdom, He tells us He had, by casting out devils. Christ also tells us the spiritual Kingdom of God has come, because it is within us. Matthew 12:28 (KJV) But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of...

Not sure what I may have said to give you the impression that I believe the fig tree showing signs of life will ever be only the natural or Jewish branches? It was only in the beginning of the fig tree showing life that it was Jewish Apostles, sent out by Christ that were first to take the...

Why do you place the coming of Christ with power only at His return? It's true that His second coming will not only be with power but also with great glory. That shall be because Christ came with power when He came to earth a man. And it is through this power He came with that He extends this...
