This too is true, for all are in Christ--who was even before the foundation of the world. Even so, we even of these times still give witness--in the flesh, and in the spirit--if we are born of both. "Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have...

By representation, yes: John representing all born of women/flesh, and Jesus the firstfruits of all born of the Spirit. Two witnesses.

It is a good study! However, Jesus being "the First and the Last", reveals Him as -1- witness overall...all "among those born of women"--of which Jesus was also. But what did He come preaching? --"The kingdom of heaven is at hand" and "The kingdom of heaven is like...", saying, "God [in...

That explains much of life in this world, giving it purpose, which is that we believe each "according to its kind" (Genesis 1:11). By which this temporal determines each its own eternity.

God explains.

If you have marveled at these, how is it that you did not comprehend "outer darkness?"

Yes, like love unknown scoffs until the arrow strikes the heart, bringing such a one to his knees, dead to all he once thought he knew, weeping.

If that is what you "think", then you missed it.

That covers most, but since the beginning of time--all through the ages--God has uniquely made Himself known if only to the few, as a ribbon of unassuming witnesses; which cannot be said of any other god or form of religion.

No, I am not saying that (--that last part). However, I do recognize what is occurring (like many things that happen in this world) to be enactments of God's revealing in the spirit of "Behold, the former things have come to pass, And new things I declare; Before they spring forth I tell you of...

Out of darkness, the rainbow of promise is now past--passing into the Light.

That is a good and commendable practice. There are times however, when we perhaps ought to ask such questions. The big "What if?" question for our time that ought to be asked (not to change the subject of this thread, but as an example), is: "What if what we were taught has origins in the...

Tongues came like the rain came before the flood of Noah's time..."as the days of Noah (so also will the coming of the Son of Man be)." However, in the days of Noah it was an outpouring of water--which God promised not ever to do again. In the case of tongues--the out pouring is the outpouring...

Marilyn, There's so much to this topic it's hard to know were to begin. Most of what you referred to are the public fronts or face of the One World Government agenda that has developed over centuries by what was a small group of elites now having grown into an international network of covert...

Unfortunately, history has repeated among the Church ‍:(pryw

Perhaps some were even only there for the food also. But seriously, they as much as said they were chosen--sons of Abraham--and therefore in alignment with the truth. I am sure they "believed" that.

I am glad you at least see it that way. But there is one exception: There is that possibility that some actually "know" the meaning of the words by the One who is true. But I don't say so to cast doubt, but faith. But I was hoping...and perhaps you will consider it...that you will equally take...

Some were brought before "kings"--even the King of Kings.

Those things were all future when He said them, only not to be in the distant future...as many believe. To the contrary, regarding Israel--which is the immediate context--Jesus addressed "you" of "this generation" regarding "the things which must shortly take place." Of which there are many...

Would you mind quoting those specific events you listed that you see as "in the time to come?" This is important to take point by point. Thank you!
