    Why is the book of Revelation so hard to read and understand?

    Dear rebuilder 454, When a believer receives the Early Rain of the Spirit, they are given a measure of faith and certain spiritual gifts. In the first chapter of First Corinthians, Paul was addressing the Corinthian church who had only received the Early Rain of the Spirit and had not yet been...

    Why is the book of Revelation so hard to read and understand?

    Dear rebuilder 454, You said: "If two on Earth shall agree as to touching anything it shall be done. " Jesus is both a lion and a lamb he's not one or the other he is both. We are both seated in Heavenly places in Christ Jesus, but also ,as Paul depicted many many times , we dwell on this Earth...

    Why is the book of Revelation so hard to read and understand?

    Dear rebuilder 454, Converted believers do not dwell upon the earth. However, unconverted believers do because they are still carnal and spiritually blind. Joe

    Why is the book of Revelation so hard to read and understand?

    Dear rebuilder 454, The Early Rain of the Spirit is given to a person to call them out from the world so that they enter the church. The Early Rain will give the person a measure of faith and certain spiritual gifts. The Apostles received the Early Rain during Christ's ministry. People with...

    Why is the book of Revelation so hard to read and understand?

    Dear Hobie, The "end" that scripture teaches occurs spiritually within a person when they are converted. The child of the devil is destroyed and the new child of God is born. At that time, the converted believer goes from dwelling upon the earth to dwelling in the Kingdom of Heaven. If this...

    Why is the book of Revelation so hard to read and understand?

    Dear Hobie, Christ is concealed from this world and from those who have only been given the Early Rain of the Spirit (called out). Christ only reveals Himself to His Elect at their moment of conversion and that only happens when He comes to them a second time (the second coming). At that time...

    Why is the book of Revelation so hard to read and understand?

    Dear Writer, The book of Revelation is not only difficult to understand for most believers, it is impossible. To understand what it teaches, a believer must have a proper foundation of understanding upon which they can build (line upon line, precept upon precept, Isa 28:9-12). Without this...

    Eves emotional drive, desired the fruit, and disobeyed God

    Dear MatthewG, The story of Adam and Eve which you presented above is actual history BUT it also teaches a spiritual message in "type". 1Cor 10:11 Now all these things happened to them (OT fathers) as TYPES, and have been written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages are come. The...

    It is easier for a camel to go through the EYE OF A NEEDLE

    Dear TonyChanYT, In the spiritual language of Christ, a "rich man" is a person who is spiritually rich. In this case, Christ is referring to the Jewish Nation. They were rich because they were given the Law. Christ is not referring to material wealth. Here is the full scripture: Mat 19:23...

    Does God want me if I'm just a 'common use' piece of clay?

    Dear arkham, Christ has chosen only a "few" for salvation in this age. They are called the Elect, the heirs, the Bride, the saints, and the First Fruits. They are blessed, not because of anything they have done, but solely because their Elect status satisfies the purposes of God for this...

    Did David kill Goliath twice?

    Dear Bob Estey, Yes, the story is literal and is actual history, but as Paul says below, those stories are "types" which teach spiritual truths that are fulfilled under the New Covenant. 1Cor 10:11 Now all these things happened to them (OT fathers) as types, and have been written for our (the...

    Did David kill Goliath twice?

    Dear Bob Estey, Goliath is a "type" for the Old Man who becomes a Man of Sin. David gave Goliath the deadly head wound that healed (spiritually speaking) with the first blow. David then used the sword (God's Word) to kill him and remove his head (Satan). Christ would be his new head in...

    How many great suppers of God are there? Just one or more than one?

    Dear Zao is life, The physical Nation of Israel will be saved in the same manner as all mankind will be saved. They must be converted into a spiritual child of God. The flesh counts for nothing. Rom 2:28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is...

    How many great suppers of God are there? Just one or more than one?

    Dear Zao is life, You are ignoring all the scriptures that I have posted. The few scriptures that you have posted in no way contradict what I have stated. John says that apostate believers (those who have the spirit of anti-Christ) will deny that Christ ever came to them in the flesh...

    How many great suppers of God are there? Just one or more than one?

    Dear Zao is life, You must be lumping my understanding in with others because there are things in your comments that I have never said nor do I believe. You said: The abomination of desolation that you refer to is this: 1 Corinthians 6 17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit...

    How many great suppers of God are there? Just one or more than one?

    Dear Zao is life, I don't teach "religion". Religion is what orthodox Christianity teaches and has been "handing down" since it was established. Religion is how carnal man approaches God. Scripture calls it the crooked way of "works". Religion is also what Satan's "another gospel"...

    How many great suppers of God are there? Just one or more than one?

    Zao is life, All new believers, shortly after they receive the Early Rain of the Spirit, will fall away and come under the influence of Satan vis the spirit of anti-Christ (Mat 12:43-45). When this happens, they will lose their salvation. For the Elect, Christ will "come again" and restore...

    How many great suppers of God are there? Just one or more than one?

    Dear Davidpt, Christ's words are "spirit" (John 6:63). To understand spirit words, it takes spiritual understanding and this is only given to a believer upon their conversion. After a believer has been given "eyes that can see", Christ (the Word of God) will be revealed to them. Your...

    How many great suppers of God are there? Just one or more than one?

    Dear Davidpt, The Supper of the Great God is Christ's judgment which occurs during the Day of the Lord. This judgment is spiritual and it occurs within every person when they are being converted from a child of the devil into a child of God. In other words, the Supper of the Great God is a...

    Did David kill Goliath twice?

    Dear TonyChanYT, As with all OT stories, the David and Goliath story is a "type" which teaches a spiritual message to the converted Elect: 1Cor 10:11 Now all these things happened to them as types, and have been written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages are come. Those who...
