@covenantee Thanks for your 'like', above. I think this also clearly explains why evangelicals - especially women - in the Bible Belt - where dispensationalism is especially strong - get tattooed these days with such confidence: QueenCat said: forums dot thewelltrainedmind dot com

Dispensationalsim exactly emphasizes a future for Israel on earth. Which means if there is no future millennium, there is no future for Israel in a future millennium; it's now the church that supposedly inherits all the promises.

Thanks for the poll vote. Appreciated. (Maybe it has something to do with a view of the OT law, and whether the church now supposedly inherits what was for Israel - as per the other thread....)

If you believe that Israel has ceased for a future millennium (i.e., Amil), then a lot of ppl will assume that Israel is replaced in some shape or form, as regards the scheme of interpretation being embraced.

@covenantee FYi.........did you see the recent, new poll, above?

I thought you referred to yourself as Amil.......

So in that sense the church is definitely distinct from Israel..........

Well if the earthly Israel is not ever going to be Israel any more, then 'replacement' by the church is a word that will come to mind to some ppl, however vehemently denied.

@1stCenturyLady Thanks for your poll vote. I guess your thought, then, is: you'd support the idea of ppl giving others memorable ink moments because you now rather like the idea of having it done....

Great verse there......

Well....I guess next July 24 you'll likewise stick to 2 glasses or even 1.......

@1stCenturyLady So I guess you were saying that if you had your time again you would likely have had it done, because you rather like the idea of a Scripture tattoo now. Did you see the new poll, above, also?

Oh so the incident you wrote about was quite recent, then........ I guess it's wise to take stock and make sure one knows one's levels, right?

Hi @1stCenturyLady I do think that 2 Peter 3.18 - "Grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ" - is definitely compatible with salvation "by grace....though faith...not of works" (Ephesians 2.8-9).

Hi @1stCenturyLady So generally speaking, though, from experience you do definitely know your limits as to how much alcohol you can comfortably take?

I'm sure this is true...........

@Spiritual Israelite FYI...........recent poll started.........

A lot of ppl say the church has replaced Israel. To me it's clear however that even Song of Solomon is a picture of Christ's relationship with Israel rather than with the church.

Jews and the church of God are definitely distinct, as per 1 Cor. 10.32.

1 Corinthians 10.32 comes to mind.
