Dear Behold, There are ZERO apostate churches (includes those you listed) which understand the Early and Latter Rain concept which is taught in scripture. This is why John says this: 1John 4:3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this...

Dear MatthewG, You said: God is not angry at you. He loves you, he cares about you, and he allows you to choose for yourself to come to him, or not. Concerning the first half of your statement, I completely agree. It is absolutely true that Christ loves all mankind and that is why He will...

Dear BarneyFife, Christ loves your nephew as much as He loves anyone. He simply was not chosen to be saved in the early harvest of mankind. He was not blessed in that respect -but He will be saved along with the balance of mankind. 1Cor 3:13 Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the...

Dear TheHC, "Fire" is a "spirit" word (John 6:63) and it carries a meaning that is different than man's wisdom teaches (1Cor 2:13). Fire represents judgment, usually referring to Christ's judgment. Even when "fire" is used in a literal event, it is a "type" which teaches a spiritual truth...

Dear St. SteVen, In this age, Christ is bringing in His harvest of First Fruits. They are blessed by God for no other reason than it suits God's purposes. Christ saves them by giving them both the Early and Latter Rains of the Spirit. After the Elect believer is given the Latter Rain, their...

Dear AuntyJane, Scripture clearly says that He made us spiritually flawed. The flaw is our spirit's weakness which allows mankind to become carnally minded. Jer 18:4 And the vessel that he made of clay was MARRED in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to...

Dear Earburner, Yes, the spirit word "earth" is a symbol for mankind's carnality and in the verse 2Cor 4:7, an "earthen vessel" represents a body of flesh. Consider how "earth" and "heaven" are used in the verses below: Isa 26:9 With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my...

Dear amigo de christo, The book of Acts was written prior to the destruction of the physical temple. The temple that is to be rebuilt is the spiritual temple of the New Covenant. Acts 15:16 After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I...

Dear Stewardofthemystery, I am teaching the truth of Christ in a respectful way. If you are offended and pricked by Christ's truth, that is between you and Christ to resolve. Since Christ has not made you receptive, I will no longer post to you. Joe

Dear Stewardofthemystery, You are being disrespectful in your communications. As for the destruction of the Temple, it is strongly tied to the Old and New Covenants as I explained above to "covenantee". The destruction of the physical temple is a "type" for the transition from the Old to the...

Dear covenantee, If they were saved, they are not perished. Here is the scripture and the meaning of Christ's spiritual message: Mat 24:2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be...

Dear Stewardofthemystery, Your are trying to understand the New Covenant as if it were the Old Covenant. You have not rightly divided the truth. Believers in Christ are under the New Covenant where the temple is not made with brick and hands. Also, you don't seem to understand that in...

Dear covenantee, Yes, if the Judaean Christians believed that the destruction of the physical temple was the Abomination of Desolation, they were still spiritually blind and unconverted. Most believers (the "many") are spiritually blind and cannot know the truth of Christ's New Covenant...

Dear Stewardofthemystery, Yes, their own eyes could see the Temple. But in Christ's spiritual language, the physical is a "type" which represents the spiritual that is fulfilled under the New Covenant. Under the New Covenant, the believer is the temple of God. You need to transition from the...

Dear covenantee, Yes, that is all historical but it was not the Abomination of Desolation which Christ and Daniel taught about. Your understanding is a carnal. The New Covenant teachings are spiritual. You need to transition from the Old Covenant mindset to the New Covenant mindset. The Old...

Dear Stewardofthemystery, Your understanding of the Abomination of Desolation is carnal and not spiritual. Christ teaches His truth of the New Covenant using His spiritual language. For those teachings of the New Covenant to be understood, they MUST be applied "within" a person. That is...

Dear AuntyJane, You said: What motivated these three rebels to go against God’s stated command? They were made spiritually marred and subject to vanity. The flaw in man's spirit is its weakness. Because it is weak, the flesh has no problem governing the mind, thus making it carnal. It is the...

Dear AuntyJane, Your understanding of "free will" is incorrect. Free will is having the ability to make choices that are free of divine intervention. Scripture strongly teaches that Christ intervenes in all our choices. Prov 16:1 The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the...

Dear AuntyJane, Your understanding of God makes Him out to be a weak and merciless father who can only hope that people will turn to Him. Your belief in mankind's supposed free will ability is evidently too powerful for Christ to overcome in most people. However, there are ZERO scriptures that...

Dear Stewardofthemystery, You said: I disagree because there is a lot of types and shadows in the OT, and the law of God. That is why Paul said the law is spiritual, and asked his readers if they could “hear the Law”. A lot of people don’t understand that the law is also prophecy, just as...
