Yes. But "hell" simply means "the grave". The physical mortal remains of the wicked dead as Christ said are "cast away" by being abandoned in the dust of the grave. The wicked dead never rise bodily (check out Isaiah 26:14 which says of the wicked dead that "they shall not rise"), but their...

Of course Daniel 12:1-3 prophesied of a resurrection with eternal glorified bodies for the saints. But that AD 70 bodily resurrection was not the last resurrection event. There is yet another one in our distant future. Christ was not a first-fruits of a spiritual new birth, because He had...

Yes, Dan. 12:2 does speak of a resurrection of both the just and the unjust. This is the same as Paul telling Felix in Acts 24:15 that there was "ABOUT TO BE a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and the unjust". This was soon to happen in Paul's first-century generation. But Christ...

The "Last Day" was the second coming of Christ back in AD 70. Daniel 12:11-13 had predicted the 1,335-day countdown to this, which ended with a resurrection in AD 70. But NO, that wasn't the "FIRST resurrection". The "first resurrection" was of "Christ the First-fruits" in AD 33, along with...

You are forgetting the symbolism of the Mosaic ritual of the "First-fruits" being waved in the temple back in Leviticus 23:10-12. The barley harvest would have a "First-fruits" sheaf handful of grain offered in the temple ALONG WITH a single he-lamb without blemish. This was meant to...

This is my favorite subject - the three successive resurrection events taught in Scripture. You don't need Terry to find this in Scripture. Just some digging in the Book. It's there to be found.

Question: The "last day" of what period? Remember, James 5:1-8 spoke against the rich men who had then "heaped treasure up in the last days" at that time James was writing. That heaped-up treasure which the rich men had gathered together in those "last days" of the first century was only going...

A prophecy is not always a prediction of future events. Sometimes it speaks about past events as well. As in Hosea 11:1. "When Israel was a child, I called my son out of Egypt..." When Israel as a nation was called out of Egypt in the Exodus, that young nation was considered a "child" at...

Of course Christ was called the "First-fruits". But that is a plural title, and also applied to the 144,000 First-fruits of Rev. 14:4 whose bodies were redeemed out of the earth and stood together with the risen Lamb on Mount Zion in Jerusalem. In other words, the 144,000 Matthew 27:52-53...

What, do you yourself deny that Christ's resurrection and that of the Matthew 27:52-53 saints already took place? You don't understand what Hymenaeus and Philetus were teaching. Their mistake was in teaching that there would not be another resurrection to follow that "first resurrection" event...

None of these examples are Scripture's exact definition of exactly what the "abomination of desolation" was composed of. Specifically, Luke 21:20 defines this AOD phrase as being "Jerusalem surrounded by armies". Daniel 9:27 wrote that it would be "with the abominable armies he shall make it...

This worldwide coverage with the gospel already occurred back in the first century, as Paul freely testifies in Colossians 1:6 &23 and other texts. After that gospel coverage was accomplished back then, the end spoken of came back then in the first century.

You aren't following the chronological progression of events which began in the disciples own first-century generation after Christ ascended to heaven in Acts 1. Persecution began almost immediately for the disciples. As Christ predicted, they were persecuted from city to city, being beaten in...

Correction of the translation: "...because He did set a day in which He is about to judge the world in righteousness by a Man whom He did ordain..." (YLT). From the time frame in which this book of Acts was first written, Christ was "ABOUT TO judge the world" in their own generation...

But just before "the tribulation of those days", the disciples were warned that they would be beaten in the synagogues and be brought before the "rulers" and "councils" (of the Sanhedrin) for Christ's sake (Mark 13:9). This was a first-century threat for Christ's disciples which the book of...

Scripture prophecy can have a double fulfillment - such as "out of Egypt have I called my son" referring to the Israelites' Exodus from bondage as well as to the child Jesus leaving Egypt to come to Nazareth. It is the same case with John 19:37 claiming a fulfillment of "they shall look on Him...

What's the mistake? "Christ the First-fruits" as well as the Matthew 27:52-53 saints raised that same day of the "first resurrection" in AD 33 was most definitely a resurrection unto bodily immortality. I agree with that, and have said so many times before. Of course there are those...

Daniel 12:11-13 gives us the exact 1,335-day countdown to the day of Daniel 12:2's bodily resurrection - in other words, the day of Christ's second coming. The 1,335-day countdown would start with two distinct events taking place during the same season. Those two events were #1) a "daily...

It was all the tribes of the land of Israel. Zechariah 12:10-14 lists some of those Israelite tribal families by name. And the mourning would be taking place specifically in Jerusalem by those Israelite tribes. "In that day there shall be great mourning in Jerusalem...". Revelation 1:7 and...

No, Scripture is very clear that there are three bodily resurrection events. Paul lists these three events which are ranked in chronological order in 1 Cor. 15:22-24. •"Christ the First-fruits" was the bodily resurrection in AD 33 of Christ and the Matthew 27:52-53 saints. •"Afterward they...
