Jesus hasn't returned in the way described by him in Matthew 24 or described by Paul in 1 Thessalonians 4 or 1 Corinthians 15.....it is this event which the scripture terms, 'the day of the Lord'

Acts 2 does not nullify the promise of Acts 1

the return the scripture speaks of is as was promised in Acts 1:9-11 9After he said this, he was taken up before their very eyes, and a cloud hid him from their sight. 10They were looking intently up into the sky as he was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white stood beside them. 11“Men...

A misunderstanding of the 70 weeks prophecy in Daniel will throw all eschatology into a confusing and wrong direction. The error is the separation of the 70th week from the continuum of the prophecy. This view is one of eisegesis not exegesis.

yes, this abomination is progressive....it builds and builds.....it will attempt to enslave the whole world and then 'the day' will come where it is cut short by Jesus' return. His return will be a rescue mission for God's people.

The ancient Jewish Temple is a collective of functions which in themselves are symbols of The plan of Salvation. Just as there is no intrinsic value in the blood of a slain animal so there is no intrinsic value in a Temple structure. The value is in what these things are a symbol of. It is...

No, I don't mean baptism. Rebirth has to do with the renewing of a person's paradigm.

You might consider this, marks....the temple being God's corporate Church......the daily sacrifice being none other than Jesus. Bricks and mortar or tents, ie, physical structures where only ever symbols as were the daily sacrifices. The reality is embodied in God's plan of Salvation. It is...

and do you really think that Daniel under inspiration was referring to bricks and mortar?

Where is the reformation in the Bible? Without rebirth there is no reformation.

1....A Temple...what is it or, what is its significance...or, what is its purpose? 2....The daily sacrifice...what is it or, what is its significance....or, what is its purpose? This needs to be clear before any further understanding.

what happened to 'can you say me it'?
