    Literal or Figurative - versus - Concrete or Abstract

    Dear Jack, After an Elect believer is converted, all of Revelation (up to Rev 20:11) is fulfilled within them. The only thing that is still future is the bodily resurrections which are presented Rev 20:11-15. The resurrections will happen sometime after the last Elect person is converted in...

    Literal or Figurative - versus - Concrete or Abstract

    Dear Jack, No. I teach the spiritual truth of end-time prophecy. It is not preterist or anything else as is commonly taught. End-time prophecy is teaching the spiritual pathway that the Elect will travel to their moment of salvation. All the prophecies have been or will be fulfilled "within"...

    Literal or Figurative - versus - Concrete or Abstract

    Dear St.SteVen, When I was converted in 2005, Christ gave me "eyes that can see". That is the only reason I see differently than the "many" who make up the church. Mark 8:21-25 applies. Joe

    Literal or Figurative - versus - Concrete or Abstract

    Dear Jack, Yes, all the historical events presented in scripture are literal and actually happened. However, those literal historical events teach spiritual truths. The example I presented of Noah and the flood is one of them. Haven't you ever wondered why those historical events have so many...

    Literal or Figurative - versus - Concrete or Abstract

    Dear Jack, Satan devoured the church shortly after Paul's departing. Satan did not spare any of the flock. The "thousands of Christian churches" in the world are fully and completely under Satan's influence. This happened because the churches are spiritually blind and have no ability to...

    Literal or Figurative - versus - Concrete or Abstract

    Dear Jack, The events described in Zechariah 14 is a prophecy of the end-time. It is presented in Christ's spiritual language. It is not teaching about a one-time future physical event as you understand the prophecy. The scripture is teaching about the spiritual day of judgment (Day of the...

    Literal or Figurative - versus - Concrete or Abstract

    Dear St.SteVen, I watched the video and cannot agree with what the speaker presented. He totally misses the point about understanding God's Word. All of scripture is written in Christ's spiritual language (Isa 28:9-12). In that language, Christ uses words that are "spirit" (John 6:63) which...

    Hellfire and brimstone has given way to eternal separation from God. - Why?

    Dear Grailhunter, Just more of your carnal reasoning which will only keep you in darkness because: Isa 55:8 My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. 9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts...

    Hellfire and brimstone has given way to eternal separation from God. - Why?

    Dear Grailhunter, I am only teaching what God's Word proclaims as truth and I quoted many supporting verses which witness to it. However, it is up to God for a person to understand it and receive it. I noticed in your last post that you only used human (carnal) reasoning to determine what is...

    Hellfire and brimstone has given way to eternal separation from God. - Why?

    Dear Grailhunter, If God "wills" anything, it will certainly happen. Dan 4:35 And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing; and he doeth according to his will in the army of the heavens, and among the inhabitants of the earth; and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What...

    Hellfire and brimstone has given way to eternal separation from God. - Why?

    Dear Grailhunter, Believing in the Doctrine of Free Will means that you are mixing "works" with faith. This is the sin that leads to death. Also, the doctrines of Free Will and Hell come from the "another gospel" which the apostate church teaches. There is no truth in them. Here is how one...

    Hellfire and brimstone has given way to eternal separation from God. - Why?

    Dear Grailhunter, Many are called out and enter the church but only a "few" are chosen to be saved from the "many". They are the Elect. Mat 22:14 For many are called, but few are chosen. Joe

    Hellfire and brimstone has given way to eternal separation from God. - Why?

    Dear Grailhunter, I do not associate with any denomination or sect. They are all apostate including the ones you mentioned. The truth I teach comes only from God's Word. Joe

    Hellfire and brimstone has given way to eternal separation from God. - Why?

    Dear Grailhunter, Christ's judgment will not omit "justice, mercy and faith" when He judges the "lost" of the final age: Mat 23:23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law: justice, mercy...

    Hellfire and brimstone has given way to eternal separation from God. - Why?

    Dear Grailhunter, The "inheritance" is only for the Elect. Most of mankind has not been chosen to receive the inheritance of life during the ages and reigning with Christ in the final age. But still, all mankind will be saved. 1Cor 15:20 But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become...

    Hellfire and brimstone has given way to eternal separation from God. - Why?

    Dear St.SteVen, I forgot to present one of the best scriptures which shows both parts of judgment for the Elect: Rev 19:20 (FIRST PART) And the beast (Man of Sin with worsened carnal nature) was taken, and with him the false prophet (spirit of anti-Christ) that wrought miracles before him, with...

    Hellfire and brimstone has given way to eternal separation from God. - Why?

    Dear St.SteVen, As I have mentioned before in other posts, there are TWO parts to an Elect believer's judgment. Both parts are required to completely "refine" or "purify" a person. The first part quickly destroys the spirit of anti-Christ and the Great Harlot (worsened carnal nature) which...

    Hellfire and brimstone has given way to eternal separation from God. - Why?

    Dear Patrick1966, Why do you believe that brimstone is a refining agent? I have heard other UR teachers make this same claim but I find nothing in scripture to support it. In scripture, brimstone is used has a symbol for destruction and not for improving anything. Luke 17:29 But the same day...

    Lord Jesus Pointed Directly to the Coming of a False Christ First

    Dear Mediation, There is only one sin that a believer can commit that will lead to their spiritual death. Paul talks about it here: Gal 5:2 Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing. 3 For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he...
