But we don't know how big that remnant will be... either regarding the number of ethnic Jews or any other ethnicity. All we know is that the total number will be an innumerable multitude (Revelation 7, 14), as the dust of the earth (Genesis 13:16, 28:14), as the grains of sand on the...

Come on, now. All very true, but God's Israel is made up of a multitude of people from every tongue, tribe, and nation... including many (but not all, certainly) ethnic Jews. And many who are not now Christians will become Christians ~ and thus true Jews included in God's Israel ~ at some...

LOL!!! Where does Moses live, Timtofly, somewhere in the Middle East, maybe? Papua New Guinea? Somewhere on the west coast in the United States? Christ was not born in need of the first resurrection, as He was (and is God). His physical resurrection, of which he was the firstfruits (1...

Understood. That's only what you think ~ not to say, EWQ, that what you think is not significant or noteworthy... I'm not saying that... but only what you think it is redefining ~ and I respect that, but it does not. We disagree. As... has been apparent for quite a while now... And neither...

LOL! That's... okay with me. Disagree. We've been over this many times... we disagree. That's not what I "claimed," Timtofly. There were given authority to judge, which is exactly according to what John writes in Revelation 20:4. Being given authority to judge and actually executing...

You were quite clear in saying, EWQ ~ and I quote ~ "It is Amill that re-defines what the first resurrection of Rev 20 is," Maybe you didn't mean it that way, but your assertion here clearly implies an intentional act. It would have been much less ambiguous if you had said "mis-defines" or "is...

"Incorrect. It is exactly as I explained it. It is Amill that re-defines what the first resurrection of Rev 20 is, altering it's meaning." A disingenuous statement/assertion at best... No matter which millennial view one subscribes to (premillennialism, postmillennialism, amillennialism, or...

You were the one keeping it going... Ah, well, there's yet another thing we disagree on. Wanna argue about that? :) Grace and peace to you.

They do. I am amillennial in my eschatological understanding, and I do accept it. Now, yes, as I have said, some who call themselves amillennial may not accept it, but in that case they are... well, at least not-very-good amillennial believers. :) It is. We disagree. As I have said numerous...

Okay, well, it's also an amillennial understanding. There are some eschatological things that premillennialists get right... :) Not necessarily. That the only way premillennialists think it can go and is thus how premillennialists understand it, yes, but that's incorrect. Right, yes...

The second birth (as I've said numerous times now) results in the resurrection of the spirit within us, the spirit being made alive, brought from death in sin to life in Christ, wherein we no longer live to the world and ourselves but to God, and from that point on we walk in the Spirit. It is...

No, I was just explaining the Revelation 20:1-6 says that the events described therein happen over the course of ~ progressively during ~ the millennium. I didn't add anything to the Word of God. That's a ridiculous accusation and therefore dismissed. Yeah, not what I said. My goodness...

Well no. it just belies your current understanding of things, EWQ, but that's a good thing. :) Sure. I've said this many times. Not necessarily, no. Well if they don't, then that makes them not amillennial... :) Grace and peace to you, EWQ.

Yes. So, in order, the first and the second. :) One! One resurrection! Two! Two resurrection! AHHHHHH...HAHAHAHAHAHAHHHHHH...!!! So you think; I understand. :) Actually, I agree with the statement itself, but you mean something different that what you actually say here. By "after...

"Beheaded," Timtofly, in Revelation 20:4, signifies that. So you think; I understand. They were, else they would not have been witnessing (giving testimony) of Jesus and for the Word of God. They were believers, which is an incontrovertible indication of saving faith, which is only possible...

Well no, but I understand that you think that... :) I did. Well, to be more specific, they died, regardless of the reason why they died, and before that had experienced the first ~ the spiritual ~ resurrection... the resurrection of the dead spirit they were born with, as all human beings...

LOL!!!! No... Is this a serious question? Goodness gracious. Wow. Right because your... well, "points" did not... LOL! Yeah, when you point out the absolute absurdity of someone's "points," they usually don't take it so well. :) Grace and peace to you, Timtofly.

Agreed. :) Agreed thus far. Let's examine this "vicariously" thing, Randy. :) I have a son who plays high school football. I cannot play anymore, as I am too old, either for competitive football at any level. Now, I can experience the game vicariously through him, but I am still not...

Okay. :) Yes, I understand. :) Agreed. Our resurrected spirits ~ once dead in sin but now living in Christ ~ remain in un-resurrected bodies. We couldn't have been resurrected physically (bodily) yet, because we haven't yet physically (bodily) died. :) But that will happen eventually...

Yes, really. As Stuart Smalley (Al Franken) said, "Denial is not just a river in Egypt!" :) So, though Noah was a righteous man, blameless in his generation, and walked with God, he was left behind? LOL! Ugh... When as a result of the final Judgment the unbelieving are sent away...
