    Is Dispensationalism a valid way to interpret scripture?

    You must know by now, that I am not talking about the foul and fictional, fantasy that most Christians speak of, being "THE" Millennium, of which they tack on AFTER their other foul belief, that Christ returns "secretly". That is NOT what KJV- 2 Thes. chapter 1 says!! There are three words of...

    Is Dispensationalism a valid way to interpret scripture?

    You might say that though there is a literal end to "a thousand years", according to our thinking, but for God's way of thinking (Isa. 55:8-9), "a thousand years is as a day, and a day is as thousand years", which is to say that it is open ended, pending only one event that shall cause Him to...

    Is Dispensationalism a valid way to interpret scripture?

    No, the start date was the day of Pentecost, for God's Grace to be operative in the world, of which is what symbolically "a thousand years" is all about! Therefore, the only time it shall end, is NOT when a literal thousand years ends, but rather "except there be a falling away first", the shall...

    Is Dispensationalism a valid way to interpret scripture?

    Okay, then call it 2,019 years, it's all the same to God, for HOW LONG His Age of Grace shall be, of which shall not END, "except there be "a falling away first". . So then, if "a falling away" (from faith) does not occur for 1500 more years, then the Age of God's Grace will still be operative...

    Is Dispensationalism a valid way to interpret scripture?

    But isn't that what you are doing? Trying to make us "work" at keeping the Law verbatim, for the Lord's FREE Gift of His Salvation? Really? For all that he had, most assuredly it was more than the "things" of this world. How about this: Mat. 10[37] He that loveth father or mother more than me...

    Is Dispensationalism a valid way to interpret scripture?

    It most definitely is THE recipe for interpretation. Try, if you will to make any literal sense of "time" out of it. You can't, for all it is, is a description of God's Eternity, and how He thinks about time. He follows no "man made" calendar from the place of His Heavenly Throne.

    Is Dispensationalism a valid way to interpret scripture?

    Thanks for your sincere question. Let's be real, God wanted all the Jews to have faith in the Promise of the first appearance of His Son. The 70 weeks of Daniel is loaded with that promise. For all of Israel, there was only a remnant out of each tribe and generation, who maintained that faith...

    Is Dispensationalism a valid way to interpret scripture?

    Yep! Just more splintering of the "splintered". It's just amazing how many false doctrines of belief have been conjured up, in addition to the scriptural account of our Lord's Glorious and visible return in all of KJV- 2 Thes. Chapter 1. . One very observable word found there, is the word...

    Is Dispensationalism a valid way to interpret scripture?

    In the KJV, concerning 2 Thes. 2:3, please notice that the word "except" is used, and not the word "until". That is crucial to know, because if the use of the word "until" is applied, it denotes the counting of time passing. Think on that! In God's Eternity, there is no passing of time!! ...

    Is Dispensationalism a valid way to interpret scripture?

    Though you may be "ignorant" about this, how long is "a thousand years"?? Ans. 2 Peter 3[8] But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years [is with the Lord] as one day. . > So, what topic did Peter state clearly in the...

    Is Dispensationalism a valid way to interpret scripture?

    What shall you do with this? Mark 3[27] No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strong man; and then he will spoil his house. . When did Jesus bind satan? Who are Satan's "goods"? How is Jesus now "spoiling" Satan's "goods"?

    Is Dispensationalism a valid way to interpret scripture?

    The 12 tribes of Israel x 12,000 is symbolic of the Israel of faith, being the remnant out each generation. "Not ALL of Israel is Israel". Therefore, " "ALL Israel", who were of faith, HAVE been sealed by God's Holy Spirit (white robes). All of that took place on The DAY of Pentecost. See Rev...

    Is Dispensationalism a valid way to interpret scripture?

    Lol! I am not dodging the issue! The scriptures testify of Jesus, NOT ISRAEL!! They ARE NOT the center of attention as you make them out to be! Even in your reply you can't let go of Israel. You are hooked, both line and sinker by the fiction that has been fabricated by the religiosity of the...

    Please explain this.

    If you do understand Mat.5:19, then please explain how it is that the "great" (Law Keepers) and the "least" (Law Breakers) are in the KoG together. The answer is found in Mat.5:20.

    Please explain this.

    That's correct, by His judgment, to believe in is Son or not, nullifies every good DEED, BY WAY of THE LAW and every evil DEED BY WAY of THE LAW, and therefore in comparison to HIS GIFT of HIS Righteousness, BOTH fall extremely short of it!! Now, if you can, please explain Mat. 5:20, in...

    Please explain this.

    JBF quoted: Mat 7:23, And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. . God's Grace replied: Iniquity is deeper than lawlessness...it is the sin that exists at the very core level, in the heart. Jesus said to make the inside of the cup and platter...

    Is Dispensationalism a valid way to interpret scripture?

    Wrong interpretation already! John 5[39] *Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. [Not israel]

    Please explain this.

    KJV- John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned [is saved]: but he that believeth not is condemned already [remains unsaved], because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

    Is Dispensationalism a valid way to interpret scripture?

    BTW, your title exudes the wrong approach! By using "Religious terms", you are already suggesting, through that term, that the "scholarly learned" have the answers, but the Holy Spirit alone does not! See Isa. 55:8-9; John 16:13.

    Is Dispensationalism a valid way to interpret scripture?

    There is no "Light" on, in your corner concerning Rom. 11. The "Deliverer came already, and Israel as a whole rejected Him. If you would listen to the Holy Spirit's words in context, you will (should) understand that only a REMNANT of Israel will come to BELIEVE in Jesus NOW, and for that...
