    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    How do you know 42 months equates to 3.5 years? When did all that comes to pass recorded in the verses below begin and end? To definitively state 42 months equates to exactly 3.5 years you have to know exactly when this time begins and ends. And I don't believe you, I or anyone else knows...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    Yes, the Kingdom of God is at hand then and now, because Christ came with His Kingdom. It is near to all who hear His Gospel, and repent and believe. If the Day of the Lord is future only, why does Luke write in the Acts that Pentecost is fulfillment of the Day of the Lord the prophet Joel...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    I'll answer your question with a question of my own. Do you know what abomination of desolation means? If you know what it means, you will know when, where and how it is being, has been, and will be fulfilled in this era known as the Gospel age as the Kingdom of God is being built through His...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    It is being fulfilled in this age as His spiritual Kingdom in heaven is being complete. That is how His will is done on earth and how it will be fulfilled on the new earth that comes down with new Jerusalem, the holy city prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. We don't see the will of...

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

    Man (male & female) possessing the faith of Christ are promised eternal life through Him even though we die. The eternal life Christ gives those of faith is not physical but spiritual, and comes not through natural birth, but supernaturally being born again, born from above through His Spirit...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    Cady & Zoe, how do you not realize the period of history you see as when God will vindicate His holy name is the Day of the Lord the prophets foretell would come? Did the Day of the Lord not come when the promised Messiah came to this earth a man? Are we not currently living in and have been...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    I present Biblical truth! Since the Bible proves your doctrine to be erroneous you cannot biblically refute, you throw out labels. I've noticed you label anyone who disagrees with you. Why is that? If your doctrine is Biblical, you should be able to prove that which you assume?

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

    While I find much agreement in your biblical understanding of the physical body of all life on earth, you seem to have no understanding of the spirit or breath of life that every living creature upon this earth must have to be a complete soul. God took the clay (dust of the earth) and formed...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    This is the time/age/era of the Church, the Gospel age while Christ is building His Kingdom as the Gospel is proclaimed unto all the earth in the power of the Holy Spirit. There has never been any entity on this earth that has suffered greater tribulation and continued not only to endure...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    I find it hard to believe that one who professes to be in Christ would not know the Church in this world must endure "great tribulation" until the end of this age??? Every tribulation and trial is great for the believer who called to keep the faith even unto death! Romans 5:3-6 (KJV) And not...

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

    No they physically died because they had partaken of the resurrection of Christ, Who is the "first resurrection". Why do you keep denying that one must partake of the resurrection of Christ to have eternal life? John sees beheaded LIVING; i.e spiritual life, souls in heaven after they had...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    It is you who wishes to raise a strawman! You are the one who says Christ reigns ON this earth. The verse does not agree, Christ reigns from heaven bringing judgment and justice IN this earth. He does this through His Gospel being proclaimed in the power of His Spirit to all who are in the...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    Yes, I'm glad you understand the OT prophesy about Christ began to be fulfilled with the advent of Christ. Again, I agree, His Kingdom is not NOW of this world, and will not be of this world ever! Daniel tells us that when Christ ascended to heaven after His resurrection, He was given a...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    No so! Christ is now in the Kingdom of heaven where He is ruling and reigning over the earth. He is not ON the earth, but none the less He rules over it. You insist He must be ON the earth if He is to reign over it.

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    While the Church will be on this earth during this Gospel age when "great tribulation" will come against the Church, the Church will be raptured on the last day of this age when the wrath of God through fiery judgment will come down from God out of heaven to utterly destroy all who are left...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    You're not reading very carefully! Christ shall execute judgment and justice IN the earth, not ON the earth. Christ does not reign ON this earth, He is currently reigning and executing judgment and justice over His people from the Kingdom of heaven where He currently is and has been since His...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    Yes a study is required! You need to understand the prophets foretell of the coming of the Lord in time, when all that is written of Him must be fulfilled. To understand the prophesies about the coming Messiah, you must interpret their words being fulfilled with the advent of Christ. If you...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    This prophesy is fulfilled through the advent of Christ coming to earth a man. Jeremiah does not say Christ the righteous Branch and a King shall reign on this earth. Jeremiah 23:5-6 (KJV) Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King...

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

    They were martyred because they had partaken of the resurrection of Christ while still alive. Christ is the first resurrection we must partake of to live with Christ in heaven after death. Not every believer is martyred for their faith. That does not mean they are not part of the resurrection...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    The only way the words of the prophets make any sense is to realize their prophesy began to be fulfilled when Christ came to earth a man. Christ came in His Day just as the prophets foretell He would. But for some people the only Day of the Lord coming will be His coming on the last day of...
