  1. Spiritual Israelite

    Premillennialism contradicts scripture (1 Corinthians 15:50-54) by having mortal flesh and blood inheriting the kingdom of God when Jesus returns.

    He is the prince/ruler of all of the kings of the earth. Some of them don't acknowledge it, but it's not up to them to decide who rules over all of heaven and earth, as Jesus does (Matthew 28:18, Ephesians 1:19-23). Name one king of the earth that Jesus does not currently have authority over...

    Premillennialism contradicts scripture (1 Corinthians 15:50-54) by having mortal flesh and blood inheriting the kingdom of God when Jesus returns.

    So, he has all authority over all creation but hasn't exercised any of that authority for the past almost 2,000 years since it was granted to Him? That's total nonsense.

    Premillennialism contradicts scripture (1 Corinthians 15:50-54) by having mortal flesh and blood inheriting the kingdom of God when Jesus returns.

    I am amazed that you ignore that He was talking about the Holy Spirit as the Comforter and then said "I will not leave you comfortless. I will come to you", showing that He is One with the Holy Spirit. And also One with the Father because He also said "If a man love me, he will keep my words...

    Premillennialism contradicts scripture (1 Corinthians 15:50-54) by having mortal flesh and blood inheriting the kingdom of God when Jesus returns.

    LOL. I never said He didn't. But, you said He did it frequently. Are you now admitting that you just made that up? Both. He is God and man at the same time as I have told you many times. This is why it's pointless to continue this discussion. Unless you understand who Jesus is, you can't...

    God Interprets His Scripture

    Fair enough. I see the lampstands and olive trees as both representing the church, but, of course, the church preaches the word of God through the power of the Holy Spirit. So, our overall view of this is basically the same and certainly not worth us arguing over the minor difference.

    Premillennialism contradicts scripture (1 Corinthians 15:50-54) by having mortal flesh and blood inheriting the kingdom of God when Jesus returns.

    You misunderstand. I am not saying you are comparing them directly. But, I am saying it's not a valid comparison since Jesus is not just a man like Herod was. Your belief that Jesus is confined to His body and is not also God makes it impossible for us to continue talking about this because...

    God Interprets His Scripture

    I'm not going to argue against that since that is basically how I see it. Though you seem to have listed three witnesses there instead of two. Who exactly would you say are the two witnesses?

    God Interprets His Scripture

    I don't think the context of the little book are sealed until the end. I think that the contents of the little book are what was written after Revelation 10 (so, Revelation 11-22). Revelation 10:9 And I went unto the angel, and said unto him, Give me the little book. And he said unto me, Take...

    God Interprets His Scripture

    That's good. Don't make up your mind about it until you have studied it thoroughly. To me, the two candlesticks/churches represent the two congregations of Jew and Gentile believers that were made one in the church/body of Christ. I believe the two olive trees should be understood similarly...

    Premillennialism contradicts scripture (1 Corinthians 15:50-54) by having mortal flesh and blood inheriting the kingdom of God when Jesus returns.

    Agree. Cady said the parable "is not about accepting Christ", yet it clearly shows what will happen to those who accept Him and to those who reject Him ("the stone which the builders rejected"). I wonder if he even read the whole parable?

    Premillennialism contradicts scripture (1 Corinthians 15:50-54) by having mortal flesh and blood inheriting the kingdom of God when Jesus returns.

    What do you think that means? Do you think that means He is literally just sitting down in heaven? Do you think He is doing anything significant right now or mainly just waiting for His chance to use the authority He was given almost 2,000 years ago?

    Premillennialism contradicts scripture (1 Corinthians 15:50-54) by having mortal flesh and blood inheriting the kingdom of God when Jesus returns.

    Amen. Matthew 28:18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. I don't see where Jesus said all authority (power) in heaven and on earth was given to Him, but that He was told not to exercise any of it until after He came back from heaven, do...

    Premillennialism contradicts scripture (1 Corinthians 15:50-54) by having mortal flesh and blood inheriting the kingdom of God when Jesus returns.

    He is spiritually in the hearts of all of His followers and our enemies surround us every day. Your lack of understanding of who Jesus is prevents you from understanding how He rules with His enemies surrounding Him.

    Premillennialism contradicts scripture (1 Corinthians 15:50-54) by having mortal flesh and blood inheriting the kingdom of God when Jesus returns.

    The answer is "nowhere" to all of those questions. Premillennialism is founded on speculation and assumptions rather than on any clear scriptures.

    Premillennialism contradicts scripture (1 Corinthians 15:50-54) by having mortal flesh and blood inheriting the kingdom of God when Jesus returns.

    Your false religion is what leads you to not understand who Jesus is. He is God and He is the King of kings and Lord of lords right now. You are absolutely wrong. The Holy Spirit is called the Spirit of God and the Spirit of Christ. He is One with the Son and the Father. Jesus is not referring...

    God Interprets His Scripture

    I don't think this is the right question to be asking. The two witnesses don't represent the olive trees and candlesticks and the two olive trees and two candlesticks do not represent the two witnesses. It doesn't say the two witnesses represent the two olive trees and two candlesticks, or vice...

    God Interprets His Scripture

    That is not what I said. At all. Not always. Nowhere does it say they are two individuals. That is your assumption. There is only one candlestick mentioned in Zechariah 4. Zechariah 4:1 And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep. 2...

    God Interprets His Scripture

    The temple of God in Revelation 11 is in heaven or, at least, is heavenly in nature. Revelation 11:19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail...

    She refuses to answer straightforward questions with straightforward answers. When someone is being evasive like that, you know they are just making things up.

    Premillennialism contradicts scripture (1 Corinthians 15:50-54) by having mortal flesh and blood inheriting the kingdom of God when Jesus returns.

    No, He did not frequently do that. There is no reason whatsoever that you couldn't have just answered my question. You always try to find excuses for not answering questions. You are wrong. Christians know exactly what He is doing right now because He is not just a man, but also is God. He is...
