    The resurection at the time of great tribulation

    So when shown the scripture that reveals the truth, you keep on denying the same. You're hardened.

    The resurection at the time of great tribulation

    Those are false believers. Never born again, Jesus tells us at the judgment, I never knew you. If Jesus never knew them then they had no saving relationship with Him. This can not be denied.

    The resurection at the time of great tribulation

    "Sleep" in both OT and NT when referring to the dead, it is the body that sleeps in the ground, but not the spirits of them that died. They remain aware and conscious. The spirit of a person flees the body at death.

    The resurection at the time of great tribulation

    Even so, Daniel 12 from the OT agrees with the one resurrection of the dead, not another of wicked 1000 years later 1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was...

    The resurection at the time of great tribulation

    And I pointed out before, all people Christ resurrects at the same time. It is called the resurrection of the dead. AND it happens on the LAST DAY of this world, not before, not after. The 1000 years millennial reign as taught by many is of THIS earth, which then has left another 1000 yrs...

    The resurection at the time of great tribulation

    I see nothing about this being their personal resurrection, just that they have a part in the first resurrection. Christ is the first one resurrected from the dead Firstborn from the dead, meaning His resurrection. For example, believers who die go to be with the LORD in heaven, they are not...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    2 Thess 2 Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, 2 not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of [a]Christ had come. 3 Let no one deceive you by any...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    I know there were so far two times of abomination of desolation events. Will there be a 3rd? Good question. Not yet as it has to do with defiling the temple of God by offering sacrifices to an idol, or another god being worshipped in a holy place of the Lord God. There cannot be any true temples...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    Also Matthew 24 Jesus tells people to flee to the mountains. But later when Jesus talks about His returning, He tells them to look up, watch and wait, not flee anywhere. What if where you are there are no mountains when He returns? And what are you supposed to be watching out for? The...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    Observing the Sabbath? Are we Christians Jews? 20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: See the way it is stated makes sense only for Jerusalem and Judea where the Sabbath is observed, not the whole world. In the times we live the Sabbath or any other...

    The resurection at the time of great tribulation

    Believers escape the day of judgement, as they are not subject to the second death, their names are already written into the book of life of the lamb when they believed. If believers are there, then they are witnesses and examples to the wicked as they were already sealed by the Holy Spirit for...

    The resurection at the time of great tribulation

    At the resurrection we see all rise up together in the judgment. All will give an account of themselves to God. Them of Nineveh who repented will condemn the wicked who rise up with them. Also, the Queen of Sheba in the same way Luke 11 29 And while the crowds were thickly gathered together...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    "All these things? The gravity, the seriousness, of a situation sinking in. Where Jesus is talking about something bigger than just the destruction of the buildings of Jerusalem. They remember the Day of the Lord prophecies where the earth sways to and fro like a drunkard. Could He be talking...

    The resurection at the time of great tribulation

    Acts 24:15 I have hope in God, which they themselves also accept, that there will be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and the unjust. Acts 24:21 unless it is for this one statement which I cried out, standing among them, ‘Concerning the resurrection of the dead I am being judged by...

    The resurection at the time of great tribulation

    About the resurrection, some are suggesting the first resurrection is 1000 years before the 'second' which is not called the second anywhere in scripture. How can there be a second resurrection then? There is only the second death mentioned. All people die, I take that to mean the first death...

    The resurection at the time of great tribulation

    All believers are included in the first resurrection, as their life is hid with Christ in God. Maybe some will see it. Revelation 20:6 Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and...

    The resurection at the time of great tribulation

    The first resurrection is not their individual resurrection which happens later. In heaven you don't have a resurrected glorified body until the resurrection of all the dead later on at the day of judgment. The first resurrection is Christ, the first fruits of those who have died, so it is His...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    Luke 17, Christ speaks about His return. And the phrasing used is very similar to that referring to the destruction of Jerusalem note v31. To me this proves a dual use of these various prophetic chapters in referring to a destruction to come for Jerusalem and then for the destruction of the...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    I doubt very much I will be in Judea and have to flee to the mountains. How about you? Where do you live? Judea? See, that is a regional warning to the city of Jerusalem alone. Luke gives a clearer explanation to my mind. But it is all the same messaging coming from Christ about the times and...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    The wording of both Luke and Matthew is intensely similar. Matthew 24 1 Then Jesus went out and departed from the temple, and His disciples came up to show Him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus said to them, “Do you not see all these things? Assuredly, I say to you, not one stone shall...
