Shalom, day. You seem not to be interpreting the 144,000 literally enough! Revelation is a book that SEEMS to be characterized by symbolism to modern, Western thinkers who have no background about the Hebraic origins and understanding of the book! When Yochanan called them "btuwliym,"...

Shalom, Guy. Answer to Question 1: What I meant by "receiving it" is "listening to the good news about God soon reigning through His Messiah the Kingdom that was promised to David's Heir and accepting it as truth for oneself, not just a vague 'truth' that MAY apply to oneself." This entails how...

Shalom, Guy. Well, first of all, this is talking about the message of the Kingdom, not about the justification of human beings by God. This word of the Kingdom or message about the Kingdom is the same gospel of (or good news about) the Kingdom that Yochanan and Yeshua` heralded during His...

Shalom, Angelina. Of course, that is your prerogative. However, I believe that once one is born into the family of God, one cannot be "unborn." Consequently, I don't believe that one can "lose his/her salvation" once he/she has been truly "saved." Actually, since the TRUE terminology from...

Shalom, veteran and all. You are so very right that Paul preached the same gospel of the Kingdom of God from heaven; HOWEVER, if you think that gospel is about "God's Salvation Plan," you are so VERY wrong! And, the message is in the meaning of the word "Christ" = "Christos" = "Mashiach" =...

Shalom, Guy. As for your two possibilities, I would be more prone to accept possibility 1 than 2. Possibility 1 puts the matter squarely on the individual, but Possibility 2 seems to put the matter on Christ's shoulders. I don't think so. First, I've never known God to treat His children in...

Shalom, everyone. Recently, guysmith asked me about this passage of Scripture: At his suggestion, I would like to discuss this statement in the open forum to get everyone's view. For me, I think this statement is quite simple. There will be those who THINK they are doing the Lord's work but...

Shalom, guysmith. Oops. Sorry. I get so few messages that way that I've gotten out of the habit of looking for them. I have now, and I'm considering starting a thread on the subject because of its importance. I also do not frequent too many other places on the forum than right here in the...

Shalom, veteran. "Yessiree! If the King James Version was good enough for the Apostle Paul, it's good enough for me!" Brother!

Shabbat shalom, veteran. No, it's NOT OK for veteran to MISREPRESENT Retrobyter! (Why are we speaking in the third person anyway?) Call ME a Futurist, if you'd like, or at worst a PARTIAL Preterist! Or, call me what I'D like, a Partial FUTURIST! Just DON'T LABEL ME A PRETERIST WHICH IMPLIES A...

Shalom, veteran. I'm going to ask you once nicely; please leave this thread alone. If you want to warn someone about preterism, that's fine; I feel the same way. Start your own thread to do it, however, because when you do it here, you're implying that I am a preterist, and I am not. We've had...

Shalom, veteran. I thought you've studied Greek before. Guess I was wrong about that. Tell me: Was George Ricker Berry a "preterist?" Yet, HE was the one who wrote in his book The Interlinear KJV: Parallel New Testament in Greek and English Based on the Textus Receptus with Lexicon and...

Shalom, guysmith. Sounds like someone is trying to say that there's a signal repeater and booster 23.5 light-years away from here! LOL! Maybe it's being bounced off the New Jerusalem? Shalom, again. I just checked out the link and noticed that it was from the BBC in London and includes a link...

Shalom, Dodo_David. Yes, thank you. However, I do believe that Young's Literal Translation has a particular bent that favors amillennialism. Thus, a "kingdom" becomes the more general "reign" as a translation for the word "basileia." However, "basileia" is PRECISELY the word used in the...

Shalom, veteran. And, picking a translation that says (archaically) that it is at the "end of the world" instead of WHAT IT MEANS, "the end of the AGE," is how some Futurists dump important points meant for the past into the FUTURE! Let's use YOUR approach to "diplomacy": "That's how the Devil...

Shalom, veteran. Thank you for your contribution. Here's the Greek version of the verse: Matthew 10:7 7 Poreuomenoi de keerussete legontes hoti “Eeggiken hee basileia toon ouranoon.” The Greek New Testament (UBS) Here's what Strong's has to say about the word: NT:1448 eggizoo (eng-id'-zo)...

Shalom, Enoch. No, it's not the "end of the world" but rather the "end of the AGE" (Greek: sunteleias tou aioonos = "entire-completion of-the age"), specifically, the end of the Messianic Age, and the end of the second age of humanity (2 Peter 2:3-13), when the deluge of Fire and the Great...

Shalom, veteran. I just don't understand why you are being so resistant to the simple idea of what was going on that day when He talked to them about the future on that mount outside Jerusalem. Today, you can't see the trees for the forest! I study the prophecies of the Tanakh just fine and...

Shalom, veteran. Matthew 24:1-3 1 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another...

Shalom, horsecamp. And if YOU really knew the Scriptures, you would be CHAGRINED by your own words! They are not "Jewish fairy tales"; they are words of prophecy which Hebrew prophets spoke and wrote down at the command of YHWH Eloheinu, YHWH our God! And, YHWH was not being covert in...
