    70 AD revisited

    You are correct in your belief that the people of the ruler is rome and that the Luke portion of the Olivet discourse was fulfilled in 66-70 Ad concerning Jerusalem. However the 70th week has not commenced yet- for thatr prince ( A roman ruler howeer that means when he arises) has yet to sign a...

    Don’t Be Like The Five Foolish Virgins = Matthew 25;1-5

    You do not even understand this passage and why it was written. It has nothing to do with salvation at all. Oce saved always saved. Jesus promised we would never be cast out, nor would He ever leave or forsake us. also we are already seated in heavenly places and our lives are hid with...

    How do you reconcile "the gates of Hell will NOT prevail" with Satan supposedly taking most of mankind to Hell with him?

    Not at all. Jesus said the gates of hell will not prevail against the church! And they haven't nor ever will. Matthew 16:18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. The it is the church.

    We are judged by works, not by faith

    But believers sins were judged and paid for at the cross. Salvation or damnation has nothing to do with works. works only add to our eternal rewards or increase the level of eternal punishment. Are you implying salvation by works? If so: Ephesians 2:8-10 King James Version 8 For by...

    Don’t Be Like The Five Foolish Virgins = Matthew 25;1-5

    Believers have free will restores to them. Only a believer can choose to obey or disobey god. You misunderstand, the earnest is a downpayment. It is a pledge that god will fulfill His promise. And we are given all teh Holy spirit, not just a "brak" or "wing" and more later on. Anyone who is...

    Meaning of This Generation Will Not Pass Away Until All These Things Take Place

    And what part of my statement does verse 29: 29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: says is wrong?

    Don’t Be Like The Five Foolish Virgins = Matthew 25;1-5

    Well I do not believe in free will except in a believers life. Well I accept Scripture as written and it says the foolish took their lamps but no oil. Saying they had oil is an assumption on the Scriptures. When someone enters the body of Christ (the church) they were and are the elect...

    We are judged by works, not by faith

    Yes believers will be judged for their works. But it is not for salvation, but for rewards or loss of rewards. The lost stand before the great white throne for judgment, while believers will stand before the bema seat judgment. Our sin shave all been paid for and removed so sin is no the...

    Don’t Be Like The Five Foolish Virgins = Matthew 25;1-5

    Well all believers cannot be like the five foolish virgins. Parables explain spiritual truths. Oil is symbolic of the Holy spirit. All saved have the indwelling of the spirit. The five foolish virgins did not have the Holy Spirit (oil) thus are unsaved.

    Meaning of This Generation Will Not Pass Away Until All These Things Take Place

    Well I believe it is you who is in error Matthew 24 and 25 are the Olivet discourse and constitutes one th9ought, though it was later divided intro two chapters. Let us remember that the originals were not divided by chapters and verses. In 24:29 we see the gathering of the elect. Who can...

    What Makes Ex-Christians Think They Once Were Christians?

    Well this is my last post to you. You are too presumptios and too arrogant and will not even admit to your own misquoting's by accident. I know far more than you will ever think I do. I stand before the Lord and not your arrogant presumptuousness. Have the last word. bye-bye

    What Makes Ex-Christians Think They Once Were Christians?

    Well despite your acerbic fingers, I suspected it was but you qouted Acts 2. Simon the Magician was never saved! there is nothing in Scripture to say he was! I have learned much, but I do not try to second guess people or read their minds. But iof you wish to compare knowledge to satisfy...

    What Makes Ex-Christians Think They Once Were Christians?

    1. Acts 2 is Simon Peter preaching to unsaved Jews!. 2. Rev. to have your candlestick removed is not losing your salvation, but having the illumination of the Holy spirit removed from the congregation, not individuals. these letters were addressed to congregations. 3. Hebrews. Chpts 6 and 10...

    Will you be caught up in the rapture or left-behind??

    Vespasian left Israel in 69 to become Cesar. Sorry if I answereed in a muddled way. but I think we have beatenthis dead horse enough. I know Titus was there in 66 AD when the first rebellion took place and Rome began to besiege the city.

    Meaning of This Generation Will Not Pass Away Until All These Things Take Place

    If the context is about Israel then it is! And Matthew 24 is definitely focused on the Israelite people. so this people will not pass away until all be fulfilled is about Israel. The word unless specifically modified always means people and not a time frame.

    What Makes Ex-Christians Think They Once Were Christians?

    No it doesn't. sin is no longer the issue for anyone to be saved or lost. No where in the bible will you find a verse or passage that says one can lose their salvation. they can lose rewards, or their standing or fellowship, but once someone becomes a Son of God, they are a child forever...

    What Makes Ex-Christians Think They Once Were Christians?

    UNFORTUNATELY, Many see words like shipwreck, candlestick removed and the verses in Hebrews 6 and 10 and jump to salvation, when they do not have anything to do with salvation

    What Makes Ex-Christians Think They Once Were Christians?

    On the contrary, Simon Magus was not a believer but a sorcerer. Hebrews is not about salvation but suffering what was to come upon Jerusalem. And the churches not once does it say one can lose their salvation. To say that once can lose their salvation is to say that Jesus did not die for all...
