    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    1 John 2:18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. 1 John 2:22 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is...

    The Date of the Lord delivering Israel.

    How can anyone who belongs to Christ not be in the body of Christ? The body of Christ is simply a reference to those who belong to Christ. The church. Do you not believe that Old Testament saints belong to Christ? 1 Corinthians 10:1 Moreover, brethren, I do not want you to be unaware that all...

    The Date of the Lord delivering Israel.

    They did dwell in the land until then. It doesn't say in that verse that they would dwell in the land forever. I guess I will have to spell this out to you in detail so that (maybe) you can see it. Ezekiel 36:24 For I will take you from among the nations, gather you out of all countries, and...

    Judgement Seat of Christ for who ?

    What are you basing this on? I thought you agreed that Matthew 25:31-46 portrays the GWTJ? Do you see it as a separate judgment from the judgment seat of Christ and the GWT judgment? Jesus will be the judge at the GWT. John 5:22 For the Father judges no one, but has committed all judgment to...

    The Date of the Lord delivering Israel.

    God has only one people and the body of Christ are His people. That's what you continue to miss over and over and over again. Are you teachable, Marilyn? What does the following indicate... Galatians 3:26 So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith, 27 for all of you who were...

    The Date of the Lord delivering Israel.

    That's your takeaway from what I showed? That's not at all what I'm saying. Please address what I showed you, which is an undeniable similarity between Ezekiel 36:24-28 and Acts 2:1-5 and then we can discuss the reason that God made Israel. Sound good?

    Judgement Seat of Christ for who ?

    You are not addressing my point. You're making a strawman argument. I didn't say that Paul wasn't writing to believers. I'm saying he is telling them they will all stand before the judgment seat of Christ, but he did not say that only they will stand before the judgment seat of Christ. That is...

    The Date of the Lord delivering Israel.

    Not just Jews. And not unbelieving Jews. Do Gentile believers not do the will of God the Father? Of course they do. He was talking about ANYONE who does the will of the Father as being His mother, brothers and sisters. Why do you keep trying to divide God's people when scripture repeatedly...

    The Date of the Lord delivering Israel.

    Prophecy: Ezekiel 36:24 For I will take you from among the nations, gather you out of all countries, and bring you into your own land. 25 Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. 26 I will give you a...

    The Date of the Lord delivering Israel.

    His brothers are not His brothers based on ethnicity. Matthew 12:46 While He was still talking to the multitudes, behold, His mother and brothers stood outside, seeking to speak with Him. 47 Then one said to Him, “Look, Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside, seeking to speak with...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    So? Neither does 2 Peter. Compare these passages... Matthew 24:35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away. 36 “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only. 37 But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    This makes no sense to me at all. If I believed that a book contained false teaching, as you believe 2 Peter does (you believe 2 Peter 3:10-12 contradicts other scripture), then I would absolutely not accept it as profitable for teaching. Which verses within 2 Peter do you deem to be profitable...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    Are you even trying to see my point? Please read what I say more carefully. My point has nothing to do with the timing of the writing of the book of Hebrews, but rather that you accept it as legitimate scripture that can be used for doctrine despite not knowing for sure who the author is. So...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    You are being evasive. I said nothing about the date it was written and nothing about whether or not it was written by Peter. I said that a vast majority of Christians except it as legitimate scripture. And that's regardless of when it was written and whether or not it was written by Peter. So...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    Many of those same people do not question its legitimacy as scripture, though. You can't just ignore that. Do you believe there's anything written in 2 Peter that contradicts any other scripture? We don't know for sure who the author of Hebrews is, either, right? But, I would assume that you...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    I think dismissing 2 Peter when a vast majority of Christians accept it as legitimate scripture takes that to an extreme. Actually, dismissing the text altogether is quite different than negotiating with the text. Okay. So, do you believe that has happened yet?

    Update on World System.

    You continue to not address my point, but that isn't surprising. Revelation 21:22 But I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. Do you interpret the above verse like this: Revelation 21:22 (Jack Version?): But I saw no temple in it, for the Father, Son...

    Update on World System.

    Are you unable to actually address what others say or do you just not want to do that? Revelation 21:22 But I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. Do you interpret this as saying "for Jesus the Almighty and Jesus the Lamb are its temple" or do you...
