nuptial bath??? that's man's tradition, not God's! Holy Communion with Christ is a time for self introspection, a time to work things out with our Lord Jesus. It is NOT a symbol of marriage! Our baptism with water is to symbolize the remission of our sins past that He shed for us upon His...

Lord Jesus showed us in His Revelation that 2 of the 7 candlesticks will NOT be deceived, and will make a stand with God's two witnesses during the tribulation. The reason you don't know that is because you're being taught men's doctrines instead, and that is what already has you deceived.

If you believe God's Word teaches a Pre-trib Rapture, then show me where such an idea is written in God's Word. Words are meaningless if you can't back 'em up.

I'm not respectable just because I call people out for their false traditions of men they push? Right! Belief in Jesus' Olivet Discourse being about the 70 A.D. destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans is... a doctrine of Preterism/Historicism. Just because the term Preterism was coined later...

No need to try and lecture me on what The New Covenant is, and Jesus' offering of bread and wine to His disciples. I am well familiar with it. I'm even aware of Jesus as Melchizedek in the OT Who met Abraham and offered him bread and wine, and blessed him. No, we did not marry Jesus when we...

I think a Christian forum is the world's worst... place to get real Bible understanding because of the many on false traditions of men, which God's Word shows is about 5/7ths of Churches for the end (based on Revelation 2 & 3). Only 2 out 7 Churches will be teaching the true Word of God for...

If you spent years studying it, then your result shows you studied it 'within' a framework based on men's tradition called Preterism. Doing that is about as realistic as calling a piece of round white plastic a fried egg. Christ's Olivet Discourse is NOT about previous history, like the 70 A.D...

No, actually it does not happen before the great tribulation. What you are heeding is a tradition from men, and not written Scripture. Even the Hebrews 9 verse you quoted is taken out of context, for it does not... prove a pre-trib coming. Jesus showed in Matthew 24:29-31 and Mark 13:24-27 that...

Unless God's Word is clearly giving an allegory or metaphor, I take Scripture literally. Thorough Bible study in all of God's Word will reveal whether a subject is meant literally or metaphorically only. For example, the river of the waters of life mentioned in Revelation 22 many think of...

I strongly disagree with your reasoning on the subject and object there in Romans 9:25-26. That section is not about Jacob vs. Esau. It's certainly not... about some Jew objector, don't know where the heck you got that false idea. Paul was speaking to Roman Gentiles ABOUT Israel regarding the...

He will also use it to convert many of those Jews He blinded away from The Gospel back into the fold, once Jesus returns (see end of Zechariah 12).

I'd agree that the wedding feast parable our Lord Jesus gave covers the rejection of The Gospel by the Jews and then offered to the Gentiles. But the actual time of the wedding feast, no, that event is set for the day of our Lord Jesus' return. There exists enough parallel Scriptures to prove...

It's still connected to the idea of 'practice'. Remember what our Lord Jesus said about repetitious prayer (Matthew 6:7). And the idea of a 'mystic' is connected to the word 'mysticism'. Can't separate the two ideas because it's essentially about doing 'exercises' to produce a direct spiritual...

You're right to have doubts about their teaching of those Rev.19 Scriptures. In their religious fervor to try and prove the pre-trib rapture theory, the pre-trib folks completely bypass the evidence in the first Revelation 19:1-9 that shows the timing of that marriage is AFTER the defeat of...

The ones Paul pointed to in Romans 11:8 is about the unbelieving Jews represented by the "house of Judah". Many of them still reject Christ Jesus today. The majority of the children of Israel have believed the way I see it historically. I know this idea isn't popular, but only because it's not...

I'm sorry, but that method is just too much of a roulette wheel approach. Before we even start... Bible study, we should pray for understanding first. Next, we should ALWAYS stick to the 'flow' of the Chapter. Line upon line, here and little, and there a little, is how God showed how to do...

Not doubting what you posted, but that label of 'mystic' doesn't really apply to those in Christ Jesus. It mainly applies to the idea of an occultist or sorcerer. The difference between us in Christ Jesus is that we inwardly are shown about God's coming Kingdom under His Son. The Holy Spirit...

Strange how both Jews and New Testament Only brethren miss God's Word about the law. Our Lord Jesus didn't do away with all of God's laws upon His cross; we're shown this with the idea of "handwriting of ordinances" in Colossians 2:14. Further proof is what Apostle Paul taught in 1 Timothy...

But that's not totally true. Some Israelites have kept their genealogy records through family history. But I'm not going to go into that here.

Afraid not. Paul's idea was actually about God's concept of spiritual Israel in the Promise by Faith which was first given through Abraham (see Galatians 3). That Promise by Faith continued through Isaac, and then to Jacob. And when Jacob received the Blessing, and wrestled with the Angel, then...
