Which Israel is Paul talking about in Romans 11:26? Would Paul have said that literally all people in the nation of Israel will be saved after previously saying only a remnant would be saved (Romans 9:27) and that he hoped some of them would be saved (Romans 11:14), thereby contradicting...

Those in Israel who turn to Him are placed in the body of Christ. How can you think anyone who becomes saved would not be in the body of Christ? Your continual attempts to divide God's people are unacceptable. Scripture repeatedly talks about God's people being brought together as one body by...

You have been shown those scripture MANY times. Clearly, no matter how much they are shown to you, nothing can change your mind.

I have heard the view from you before multiple times. Did you somehow miss where I said "Yes, we have talked about that before"? The new heavens and new earth, of course. That is obvious. Peter said that is what we, the body of Christ, should be looking for in fulfillment of the promise of...

Absolute nonsense. Nowhere does scripture describe the last days that way. You need to allow scripture itself to define the last days for you. You're not doing that. Look at how Peter describes the last days and learn. Acts 2:16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; 17 And it...

Did you not read his post? Who do you think Peter was talking about in 2 Peter 3:13 when he said "Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells."? When he said "we", he was talking about the body of Christ (the church). Are you not...

Don't you think that if that was true we could read about that somewhere in the New Testament? I certainly would think so. There are a lot of references to Old Testament prophecies in the New Testament, yet nothing is written about Israel ruling over the nations of the earth. The New Testament...

All of God's people are in the body of Christ. There is no other name under heaven by which anyone can be saved but the name of Jesus (Acts 4:12, John 14:6). Who said God cast off Israel? Not me. I agree with what Paul said. Romans 11:1 I say then, has God cast away His people? Certainly not...

Are you trying to play scripture tag? Do you accept what is written in Galatians 3:26 or not? Read Romans 11. Does Paul say that literally all Israelites are God's elect? No. He said only the remnant that were saved by grace were elect. You can't include unbelievers among God's people.

Why do you insist that text within the most highly symbolic book in all of scripture has to be literal? Not saying that it can't be, but why is your default that it should be literal? Do you think this is literal... Revelation 8:7 The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire...

Amen. And there are many other passages like those to support that God's people from all-time and all nations are all one body together without the division that dispensationalists believe in.

Why wouldn't all be in one place? Why do you try to create division amongst God's people when scripture never does that? We are all one in Christ with no division of Jews and Gentiles or any other groups. Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is...

You are not allowing the Bible to tell you who the Lord's people are. Galatians 3:26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.

Your thinking "outside of the box" is a case thinking outside of scripture, which is a bad idea. I don't recommend anyone to do that. You are not saying anything that is actually taught in scripture. Why do you think anyone should take you seriously when that is the case? Nowhere does scripture...

Yes, that kind of nonsense is what truly damages our reputation as Christians. I think non-Christians are smart enough to understand that there are certain fundamental things Christians should be expected to agree on without expecting us to agree on literally everything.

We're not discussing the gospel here. If non-Christians read this forum (I doubt many, if any, do) and they jump to that conclusion that the gospel should be questioned because we disagree about Bible prophecy, they can't blame us for that. There is no reason to think that Christians are going...

As does Matthew 25:31-46. It really couldn't possibly be more clear. I believe they keep denying it because they just believe what they want to believe will happen instead of what scripture teaches. Their mindset is similar to the Pharisees in terms of their understanding of the nature of...

Is there some reason why you aren't actually addressing the point I was making in my post? What does any of this have to do with defining what the day of the Lord represents, which is what the ongoing discussion I was having with Marilyn C is about? What are you intending to say in relation to...

You have decided to use your supposed common sense to determine your biblical doctrine instead of the Bible itself. Unbelievable. I'll tell you what has happened to you. You used to try to actually defend your doctrine with scripture. It looks like you have given up on that and have now resorted...

No, Amil is definitely the solution. It's the truth, but you go out of your way to deny it with ridiculous 7 day week theories and other nonsense that you can't find anywhere in the Bible. Postmils think that everything gets better until the world has been basically Christianized and then Jesus...
