    THE DAY OF THE LORD

    I agree that John-the-Baptist is fulfillment of the prophesy regarding the coming of the Lord. It is proof the Day of the Lord has already come, and since He has already come, we now look for and wait for the Lord to come again on the last Day of the Lord at the end of this age.

    THE DAY OF THE LORD

    The prophet Elijah will not be returning to earth again, and Christ never said He would come twice!

    THE DAY OF THE LORD

    John-the-Baptist being filled with the Holy Spirit from his mother's womb was indeed fulfillment of coming in the Spirit and power of Elijah. John's birth further proves the Day of the Lord began when Christ came to earth a man.

    THE DAY OF THE LORD

    Malachi 4:5-6 (KJV) Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse. Luke 1:17 (KJV)...

    THE DAY OF THE LORD

    The Day of the Lord written about in Peter is the last Day of the Lord. You can discover the Day of the Lord is the whole New Covenant era through what is written in Acts 2 when the Holy Spirit was poured out at Pentecost. Because it is when He comes again on the final Day of the Lord it will...

    THE DAY OF THE LORD

    I too believe the Day of the Lord both foretold of old would come, and foretold would come to an end or last Day of the Lord, began with the advent of Christ coming to earth a man. Most don't understand the Day of the Lord includes all that is written of the Lord because they think the Day of...

    Who are the sons of God and the daughters of men

    The same Spirit was with the sons of God before Pentecost as after. Human flesh indeed cannot bring forth sons of God, because the Spirit gives life and the flesh profits nothing. By the power of the Spirit with them Old Covenant men of faith are sons of the living God, just as we who have His...

    The Two Witnesses Will Appear in the Next New Moon

    You appear to be steeped in Jewish tradition and folklore. I would assess you to be a Jewish Christian Zionist with little understanding of Redemptive history and Gospel truth.

    Who are the sons of God and the daughters of men

    You misunderstood the point I am making. It was my intention to show that since there were born at that time men who called upon the name of the Lord, why would we not define these men of faith sons of God? I'm not saying that only men from the line of Seth were sons of God. I just believe...

    The Two Witnesses Will Appear in the Next New Moon

    What is the difference between the ceremonial law, the moral law, and the judicial law in the Old Testament? The differences between Jewish ceremonial law, moral law, and judicial law in the Old Testament are as follows: Ceremonial law encompassed any rule surrounding celebrations and regular...

    Who are the sons of God and the daughters of men

    Who else would the sons of God be, since the only others mentioned are daughters of men? Does it not stand to reason that the sons of God would have been those who began to call upon the name of the Lord in the days of Seth, when a son, called Enos was born to him?

    The Two Witnesses Will Appear in the Next New Moon

    What other laws are written in the Torah you say Christians MUST abide? We are already familiar with the Ten Commandments which are depicting the moral laws of God. Are you saying that if we fail to keep the ceremonial laws we shall not be saved, and in fact be condemned?

    The Two Witnesses Will Appear in the Next New Moon

    Jesus did not come to fulfill the ceremonial laws written in the Torah. He came to do the Father's will, and this He accomplished by teaching His people the moral law which He fulfilled perfectly. That's why He says things such as, we don't commit murder simply by killing another, but in fact...

    Who are the sons of God and the daughters of men

    It could have been more easily understood that these "angels" were not spirit beings, but human beings, if the translators had uniformly translated ἄγγελος angelos messenger instead of taking upon themselves to pick and choose when to define messenger (which could be human or spirit) and when to...

    The Two Witnesses Will Appear in the Next New Moon

    Matthew 5 begins with Christ speaking to His disciples from a mountain. The lessons He taught them there are often referred to as Christ's Sermon on the Mount. The lessons there are found here: Mt 5:1-7:29. I want to especially highlight for you Matthew 5:17-18 (KJV) " Think not that I am...

    When will the "sudden destruction" from which "they will not escape" referenced in 1 Thess 5:2-3 occur and what is the scope of it?

    I understand what you mean, I don't follow doctrines of men, especially 'isms' either. Funny thing is, I've discovered that when I began to share what I have learned through my study of Scripture of many years, others began to label me things like Calvinist, and Amillennialistic. The only...

    When will the "sudden destruction" from which "they will not escape" referenced in 1 Thess 5:2-3 occur and what is the scope of it?

    Exactly! This is what I have been hoping to hear you say. Having agreed the saints in heaven are living spiritual souls, can you elaborate on how they are spirits alive in heaven after they have physically died? Are you reluctant to say they are spirits alive in heaven after they have...

    When will the "sudden destruction" from which "they will not escape" referenced in 1 Thess 5:2-3 occur and what is the scope of it?

    It is the spirit of living saints in heaven, that ascended to heaven after physical death, a spiritual body. And this is what returns with Christ to be reunited to an immortal & incorruptible physical body that shall be forever.
