    Total agreement! Well said!

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    Yes the Day of the Lord did come when the promised Messiah came to earth a man. The Day of the Lord did not come with power from above until the Spirit was poured out at Pentecost. It is through the power of the Holy Spirit that the Church on earth finds great success in proclaiming the Gospel...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    I agree! IMHO the different opinions exist because Christians read the Old Testament prophets as though their prophesy only begins when Christ comes again on the final Day of the Lord, when Christ will usher in this imagined ONE thousand more literal years of time on this earth. To miss...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    The Day of the Lord that is coming when the seventh trumpet begins to sound is the last day of this Church and Gospel age. The seventh trumpet does not usher in more time on this earth that premillennialists imagine will last ONE thousand years. The sounding of the seventh trumpet is when time...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    Each individual believer makes up the Church on earth, who are called to endure to the point of physical death or until Christ comes again on the last day.

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    My reply was to this statement where you seem to believe we might know who and who is not a believer!

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    I find no implications with the Day of the Lord being this age when the Kingdom of God is being built in heaven, and "great tribulation" coming to the Church on earth during this Day of the Lord when the Kingdom of God is being built in the Kingdom of heaven as the Gospel is going out unto all...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    Only God can judge a man's heart. Neither you, nor I, nor anyone else has the ability to know whether or not one professing faith is of faith for salvation or is in truth in unbelief. For there are many deceivers among the people of faith.

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    This prophesy began to be fulfilled at Pentecost according to Ezekiel. Because it is in Christ that man is sprinkled with clean water, and a new heart and a new spirit He puts in us at Pentecost. Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord have been cleansed from all filthiness, and idols...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    The abomination of desolation spoken by Daniel began when Christ came and His people rejected Him, and their house was left unto them desolate. (Mt 23:38) Jerusalem and the Temple was the holy place unto God. And the destruction in AD 70 was written to be an example for Christ's Church as the...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    Not completely fulfilled because both Joel and Luke speak of this Day of the Lord as when man shall call upon the name of the Lord and whosoever believes will be saved. Pentecost simply marks the beginning of this Day of the Lord, the age of the Gospel going unto all the world, the prophets...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    Sorry but that is simply hog wash. Luke could not have been any more clear about fulfillment of Joel's prophetic words of the Day of the Lord coming at Pentecost. You agree there is a partial fulfillment with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, but then deny the Day of the Lord Luke quotes from...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    How does anyone know the AOD spoken of by Daniel has already been fulfilled? Is it completely fulfilled? Will it be fulfilled throughout the Church age?

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    I'm not going to make it so easy for you. Do your own study of abomination beginning with the Old Testament because Christ says we should consider what Daniel has written. When you discover what abomination that brings desolation means you might be able to understand how AOD can be both a past...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    Excuse me??? Who is providential over the affairs of mankind? God does not CAUSE tribulation to come to His servants, but He certainly does permit it to accomplish His purposes. Consider for example the hardship and tribulation Joseph had to endure through the providence of God for Him to...

    I want to know what you think it is?

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    Then why does Christ say: John 18:36 (KJV) Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence. Believers do not inherit this earth, but the new earth...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    The physical body is not eternal. How could it be since our body is destined to die? It is only our spirit that is promised eternal life through His Spirit in us. Without the Spirit of Christ in us we would be no different than unbelievers who die and return to the dust while their spirit or...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    And you don't believe His name is being vindicated as His Kingdom continues to grow, and the gates of hell cannot prevent it?

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    Let me know when you have understanding of exactly what the AOD is????
