    Is Revelation 20:1-6 really a recap?

    The resurrection Christ is referring to is His bodily resurrection, because He is the first resurrection from the dead never to die again.

    Is Revelation 20:1-6 really a recap?

    Of course because that is what Scripture tells us we shall physically see when Christ comes again. It will be as it was when He departed from this world and the disciples saw Him ascending up into heaven until the clouds obscured their vision. If Christ does not return in bodily form as He...

    Is Revelation 20:1-6 really a recap?

    The Bible often translate spirit as 'ghost'. And Christ tells His disciples who thought He had been resurrected a spirit/ghost, that a spirit does not have flesh and bones. And when Christ died on the cross after commending His spirit into the Fathers hands, we read "He gave up the ghost." A...

    Is Revelation 20:1-6 really a recap?

    Resurrection is not of the spirit of man; it is of the body of man. The only way for man to be made spiritual alive is not through resurrection, but they must be born again! Matthew 22:30-32 (KJV) For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels...

    Is Revelation 20:1-6 really a recap?

    Marty explaining the first resurrection in this manner causes confusion. Because the first resurrection is the bodily resurrection of Christ that man must spiritually, (not physically) have part in through His Spirit in us, to overcome the second death. When we say man must be resurrected to...

    Is Revelation 20:1-6 really a recap?

    Do you not believe that when we are born again having the Spirit of Christ within us, the spirit possesses eternal life because in spirit we are the likeness of Christ? Isn't that why Scripture tells us that when we walk/live by the Spirit we cannot sin? 1 John 3:9 (KJV) Whosoever is born...

    Is Revelation 20:1-6 really a recap?

    In these forums I have repeatedly denied both full and partial preterism. PP find all their answers for fulfillment of what is written of Old wrapped up in 70 AD. I do NOT! I find my answers for prophesy in the cross and resurrection of Christ's coming including the manner in which I have...

    Is Revelation 20:1-6 really a recap?

    Since you wish to know I will give you, my opinion! IMO you have a reputation in these forums of being offensive, abrasive and exceedingly rude. I'm guarded when replying to you because I fear being drawn into a heated debate where I could easily allow myself to be of the same attitude. This...

    Is Revelation 20:1-6 really a recap?

    Very briefly, I believe the harlot in Rev 19 symbolizes the church of Old, characterized as the harlot through spiritual apostasy/adultery, being overrun by the powers of evil. Christ judged this harlot church of Old at His coming telling apostate Jews their house is left desolate and that the...

    Is Revelation 20:1-6 really a recap?

    It wouldn't do any good for me to answer your question until I know if you understand Babylon is symbolic!

    Who/what does Babylon symbolize?

    Is Revelation 20:1-6 really a recap?

    In time believers are raised up with Christ SPIRITUALLY because the Kingdom of God NOW is a spiritual and not a physical kingdom. But Christ will come again in the same manner He departed, clothed in human, though immortal, flesh. And we who are now spiritually with Him in the Kingdom of God...

    Is Revelation 20:1-6 really a recap?

    Then tell me how John can hear "a great voice of much people in heaven" if not after the cross and resurrection of Christ? Why are they saying "Alleluia; salvation, and glory, and honor, and power. unto the Lord our God"? How can there be much people in heaven BEFORE Christ made atonement for...

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    Prove cherubim are angels or an angel of God from the Word of God! You would do well if you begin with how 'cherub' is defined from the Hebrew language. There is not a single verse in Scripture that applies this definition to an angel or messenger of God. I did however find where Cherub is...

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    You clearly don't know the history of Tyre! God used this city assuring its prosperity, wealth and beauty that the Holy Temple through the abundant materials King Hiram possessed and gave to support King David, that Solomon would be well equipped to build the Holy Temple. Including the place...

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    It wasn't always, because they could not have been the city of greatness they had become if not from the providence of God. It was through the wealth of Tyre that David accumulated materials and Solomon built the Holy Temple of God. Saying they were once faithful to God in the sense that they...

    Is Revelation 20:1-6 really a recap?

    Christ comes to each one in his own order SPIRITUALLY as man hears the gospel of the Kingdom of God proclaimed and spiritually enters into the Kingdom of God when they are born again. But the hour is coming in which ALL who are in the graves and saints who are still alive at His coming will be...
