    The Rest of The Dead

    ^ As for the understanding that people will be "falling away" from faith, prior to His Physical return, that is easily understood in the words of Jesus Himself in Luke 18[8] I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth...

    The Rest of The Dead

    1. Apparently you do not allow for the Holy Spirit's interpretation/meaning of God's word, therefore you can only read the literal words. Isaiah 55:8-9, John 16:13. 2. So, when Thomas was challenged by Jesus to touch His hands and His feet, for the scars made by the nails, and then thrust his...

    The Rest of The Dead

    So then, WHO are the rest of the dead, that LIVED NOT AGAIN, until AFTER the thousand years were finished? I could and would tell you, but I would rather that the Lord instruct (guide) you into ALL of His truth! In regards to "the thousand years", one has to come to terms as to what it is...

    ^ So yes! Blessed and holy is he, that HATH PART (present tense) in the first resurrection (who is Christ), the second death hath no power...", as shown in 1 John 5:13.

    The Rest of The Dead

    Thanks for your repy "Stumpmaster", I am sure that you and I ARE FAITHFULLY WAITING to be physically and bodily resurrected in the Day of Jesus' sudden appearance from Heaven, in the fulness of his Glory, in Flaming Fire. Having said that, of a surety you do now know, HOW it is and in what...

    The Rest of The Dead

    I understand your perspective, being from that of God's point of view, of how there is no sin above another. To THAT I agree, but that is not the perpective that God is speaking from in 2 Thessalonians 2:1-3. He is speaking to the Day of the physical return of Christ from Heaven. However, He...

    The Rest of The Dead

    Whoa! There is a big difference in the situations, in how you are trying to compare the word "fall" here. Adam fell away from innocense and into the knowledge of good and evil. Paul is describing the word "fall", in that there shall be a falling away from faith and into apostasy. Each are two...

    ^... except we the Lords saints, who are alive, meet the Lord in the air, with the saints who died in faith, He brings with Him, and so shall we ever be with Lord.

    The Rest of The Dead

    I came from that religious mind set. I was born again in 1975, and bought the book "The Late Great Planet Earth". Being a new Christian then, I was "raptured" as they say, right into satan's web of false prophets. But as I became more knowledgable about God's word, and trusting God's Holy...

    The Rest of The Dead

    In THAT moment of in time, in their moment of contemplation, they will decide for either the wealth (worth) of Jesus, or the worth (wealth) of the world! Its the same old story of Esau and Jacob! Esau gave up his "birthright" , for a morsel of food!

    ^ Reply to Nancy, in addition: For anyone who does take the mark of the beast, they wouldn't be following sound doctrine, as you say.

    The Rest of The Dead

    According to 2 Thessalonians 2:1-3 and Luke 18:8, there will be a definite situation that causes people to lose faith. For if that does NOT take place first, then the Lord cannot return in all His physical Glory. I believe that the situation, that causes people to lose faith, will be the mark of...

    The Rest of The Dead

    BTW, is it not true, that Jesus is the First Resurrection? And if we "hath (have) part in the first resurrection", is that not discriptive of what Peter says in 1 Peter 2 [4] Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine...

    The Rest of The Dead

    I think what is confusing me is your concept of the dead gentiles, who did not recieve the Spirit of Christ (the second coming), and yet still recieve the promise of God's salvation in the end, for having believed in Him. Isn't that contrary to what Jesus said in John 3:3-8, Luke 11:13, and...

    The Rest of The Dead

    That is profoundly true!! Now, knowing God's Longsuffering, Patience and Love (2 Peter 3:9) what situation shall eventually take place among people, of which Jesus was concerned about, proving that the Father will then, at that time, speak it to Him, to return in the fulness of His Glory from...

    The Rest of The Dead

    I think that I am a little confused in your reply. As to both Jew and gentile, I understand the " dead" as being: Those who have died in Christ Those who have died without Christ But as to "the dead of the gentiles..." , I am not aware of another group. Is your perspective Amillennial or...

    It is apparent that you DO NOT understand 1 Tim. 4[1] Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; [2] Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; You are...
