  1. Spiritual Israelite

    Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so a 1000 yr reign on this earth is false

    Who is being referred to in verse 11? Those who were blinded. Paul pointed out how they stumbled, but not beyond recovery. They were not blinded permanently, but were blinded so that the gospel would go to the Gentiles, who, in turn, would provoke the blinded Israelites to jealousy. After saying...
  2. Spiritual Israelite

    Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so a 1000 yr reign on this earth is false

    This is a blatant twisting of God's word. I showed you that he later said to them that they belonged to Christ. Was he just hoping that he was right about that? 1 Corinthians 3:21 Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are your's; 22 Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world...
  3. Spiritual Israelite

    Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so a 1000 yr reign on this earth is false

    Are they Christians or not? Before, you said it can't be known and then you applied Galatians 5:19-21 to them which would imply that you think they were not Christians. You are the one who is not willing to specifically address my points and is drawing conclusions from your cherry picked...
  4. Spiritual Israelite

    Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so a 1000 yr reign on this earth is false

    Do you expect to be taken seriously about this when you deny that people who Paul said were "in Christ" were actually "in Christ"? Later in that same chapter Paul said this about those same people: 1 Corinthians 3:21 So then, no more boasting about human leaders! All things are yours, 22...
  5. Spiritual Israelite

    Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so a 1000 yr reign on this earth is false

    As usual, you interpret a passage without taking the rest of scripture into consideration. John 17:9 I pray for them. I am not praying for the world, but for those you have given me, for they are yours. 10 All I have is yours, and all you have is mine. And glory has come to me through them. 11...

    THE CONFIRMING OF THE COVENANT OF DANIEL 9:27

    I agree with this, but disagree with your understanding of the timing of some of the verses. But, Jesus definitely answered two different questions relating to two different events, one of which was local to Judea and Jerusalem that was fulfilled in 70 AD and the other of which is global and yet...
  7. Spiritual Israelite

    Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so a 1000 yr reign on this earth is false

    Why do you underestimate Paul's discernment? He was inspired by the Holy Spirit. Do you think the Holy Spirit who inspired 1 Corinthians 3:1-3 didn't know whether the people Paul was addressing were in Christ or not? It would be foolish for Paul to say they were in Christ if he did not know if...
  8. Spiritual Israelite

    Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so a 1000 yr reign on this earth is false

    I do. I deny the teaching that man has no responsibility to make a choice in relation to salvation. Joshua 24:14 “Now fear the Lord and serve him with all faithfulness. Throw away the gods your ancestors worshiped beyond the Euphrates River and in Egypt, and serve the Lord. 15 But if serving...
  9. Spiritual Israelite

    Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so a 1000 yr reign on this earth is false

    He did not say you have to be born again to repent and have faith. Tell me, did the disciples believe in Christ before or after this happened... John 20:21 Again Jesus said, “Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.” 22 And with that he breathed on them and said...
  10. Spiritual Israelite

    Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so a 1000 yr reign on this earth is false

    You are twisting the text to fit your doctrine. No, he was not concerned about that. You are adding that to the text. He was concerned about them falling away as a result of not growing in their faith. He would not have called them "babes IN CHRIST" if they were not, in fact, in Christ (saved...
  11. Spiritual Israelite

    Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so a 1000 yr reign on this earth is false

    You evade every point I make. You are brainwashed by Calvinist doctrine. When you posted Romans 11:8, what was your reason for posting it? Were you not intending to make the point that those who are blinded are blinded permanently because they are not chosen? No, I do not. Go argue with your...
  12. Spiritual Israelite

    Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so a 1000 yr reign on this earth is false

    Of course I realize that. But, you are cherry picking scripture. You are acting as if 1 Corinthians 3:1-3 doesn't exist. Why do you think that Paul was upset with those babes in Christ? Because being carnally minded is death. He didn't want them to fall away and wanted them to grow in the faith...
  13. Spiritual Israelite

    Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so a 1000 yr reign on this earth is false

    That was said in relation to the unbelieving Israelites of Paul's day. And what do you think that means? Do you think that was a permanent condition? If so, why did Paul go on to say that he hoped to save some of them by way of making them jealous of the salvation of the Gentiles? Romans 11:11...
  14. Spiritual Israelite

    Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so a 1000 yr reign on this earth is false

    Of course it doesn't. But, it shows that you don't understand what Romans 8 is saying. Being carnal does not prevent someone from seeing their need to repent and put their faith in Christ. Being carnal means you are not mature and not ready to understand the deeper things of God and His word...

    The Coming Rapture

    LOL! How do you not understand that I'm disproving yours? You are not even thinking here. Is it referring to ALL of the days that Abraham sojourned in Philistine or just some of them? It's referring to all of the days he was there and refers to the number of all of those days as "many". If he...

    Babylon

    Your foolish posts remind me of this verse... Proverbs 13:16 All who are prudent act with knowledge, but fools expose their folly.
  17. Spiritual Israelite

    All who are not taken up to meet the Lord in the air when He comes will be left behind and killed.

    But, again, Jesus was comparing physical things with physical things by comparing what will happen at His second coming with what happened in the flood in Noah's day and what happened in Sodom in Lot's day. I know that judgment occurs right after that, but I don't think that is in view in that...
  18. Spiritual Israelite

    Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so a 1000 yr reign on this earth is false

    Explain this then... 1 Corinthians 3:1 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ. 2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able. 3 For ye are yet carnal...
