    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    If you would simply take the time to include "the fullness of the Gentiles" you would realize that Paul is not speaking of ethnic Jews when he writes "all Israel shall be saved"! How could this be ethnic Jews when all Israel that shall be saved are Jews of faiths and Gentiles of faith TOGETHER...

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    I have no idea of what you are responding to??? The water flooded the earth! The ark was adrift upon the water that covered the surface of the earth. The ark was lifted up as the waters increased. It was not lifted off the earth, but above the earth as the flood water upon the surface of...

    Will Trump seek asylum in Israel and Build the 3rd Temple?

    The breath of life, which spirit is, is the control center of our being. It is the essence, without form of who we are. It is through the spirit breath of life in mankind that we live, breath, think, eat, etc. The spirit breath of life in mankind controls every organ of our body. Without the...

    Will Trump seek asylum in Israel and Build the 3rd Temple?

    The physical mortal body is resurrected immortal and incorruptible to be fit for life on the new earth, where there will be no more mortal beings and no more corruption. We will have physical bodies on the new earth because there would be no reason to have a new earth except for physical life...

    Will Trump seek asylum in Israel and Build the 3rd Temple?

    If our physical body is replaced by a spiritual body why would it need to be changed from mortal to immortal and corruptible to incorruptible? Mortal, corruptible beings consist of flesh and blood, unlike spirit beings that are immaterial or without substance. You have yet to explain what it...

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    Matthew 24 likens the time of the coming of Christ to that of the time of Noah. Christ says that just as those alive during the time of Noah were warned of the flood that would come, continued to live their lives as though they knew nothing at all of the judgment to come. So they continued to...

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    I know what Paul said! Which is how I understand the elect remnant of Old Covenant faithful Israelite Jews were saved according to grace through faith and that Gentiles of faith shall complete them. With both Jew and Gentiles of faith salvation has come to all the earth, and whosoever...

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    Yes, they are the elect remnant saved according to grace through faith because they believed what was taught them in the Law and they believed the prophets who foretold of the Messiah Who was to come to save them.

    We are not speaking of what came before the flood. We are now, since the first advent of Christ living in "these last days". You simply attempt to cloud the issue by bringing in what took place before and during the flood, because you THINK it proves your unbiblical doctrine. Rev 14:1-5...

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    Who can actually say honestly they are NOT the Church as She existed of Old before Christ came to earth a man? The Bible says those of Old of faith are the Church, and these 144,000 sealed by the Spirit and ascending to heaven with the Lord, you say are not the Church of Old??? Acts 7:37-38...

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    In saying the Jew "is only removed for a season", I'm assuming you are basing that comment on this passage from Ro 11. Romans 11:25-27 (KJV) For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to...

    Rejecting Bible Doctrines by Contradiction

    Rather than finding contradiction between these two specific verses, we find complete harmony in both together. But only if we don't approach Scripture with our preconceived opinions. The Acts verse clearly shows we were destined/ordained/appointed to eternal life. Then according to 2...

    Free Agency, Free Will, Prevenient Grace

    Excellent! Clear and easy enough to understand even for a child or babe in Christ!

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    Actually what I find written is that there is a first resurrection of the spiritually dead to spiritual life in this age. Then when this age comes to an end when the last trumpet sounds there will be both a physical resurrection of ALL who are dead, and the saints alive at that time will be...

    Will Trump seek asylum in Israel and Build the 3rd Temple?

    What do you think Paul means when he says "For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality"? Do you believe it means something other than our physical bodies being resurrected immortal & incorruptible FLESH when the last trump sounds? This resurrection of...

    False Teaching: Mary died a virgin. Biblical Proof Mary had children.

    This is a good point! The verse in question should read that Joseph NEVER knew her instead of saying that he knew her not until after the birth of Christ. If the intent was to prove Mary perpetually a virgin the verse would have said something like thus: Matthew 1:25 (KJV) And he never knew...

    How will Lord Jesus return in the last days??

    We are living in the last days because Jesus has already come. He will come again on the last day of these last days when the seventh trumpet sounds. His coming will be visibly seen, just as His departure from this earth was. Christ comes as a thief for those who are not looking for and...

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    What's wrong with your reading comprehension? The 144,000 of all the tribes of the children of Israel, the remnant of them of Old saved according to grace through faith, ARE the Church as She existed before Christ the God-Man went to the cross, resurrected from the dead and ascended to heaven...

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    Do you read every numerical mention found in the Revelation literally? Have you never heard of the remnant from Old Covenant Israel saved according to grace through faith? Remnant is not a definitive number and neither is 144,000 of all the tribes of the children of Israel. However these Old...

    Will Trump seek asylum in Israel and Build the 3rd Temple?

    That's because the physical body resurrected of the unbelievers shall not have an ETERNAL spirit to give their resurrected physical bodies immortal & incorruptible life. They will be raised to physical life through natural spirit to have their part in the lake of fire that is the second death.
