The Spirit did teach Peter and all the disciples that's how Peter was able to understand through this vision that salvation through Christ was not only for Jews, but also for faithful Gentiles, like Cornelius. The mystery of salvation in Christ to Gentiles as well as to Jews had been hidden...

Man who has been born again possesses eternal life through the Spirit of Christ in us the moment we believe. Though man possesses eternal life inwardly the moment we believe, we are still clothed in mortal body destined to die. That's why all who are of faith must be bodily resurrected...

What difference does it make that Jews in unbelief continued under the law of Old and as promised, the wrath of God would make an end of these things? When Christ taught from the Mt of Olives He was not speaking to Jews in unbelief! He was speaking to His disciples about things His disciples...

Once the Holy Spirit came all who were truly born again knew the advent of Christ put an end to the Old Covenant and ushered in the New Covenant through Christ's blood. John 15:26-27 (KJV) But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth...

When Christ comes again and all of creation is made new, like it was at creation, why do you doubt the new heaven and new earth shall be exactly as it was in the beginning when God created all things? But then there will be no death because the curse will be removed, and there shall be no more...

Why must man be born again of the Spirit to both know and enter the Kingdom of God Earburner? Why does Christ say we must be born AGAIN? Since Christ is not speaking of physical re-birth, obviously to be born AGAIN of the HS, there must have been a time when the Holy Spirit was in man, and the...

Because since the New Covenant has come, and the Old is already an abomination unto God, Christ wanted them to stop looking to the Old as though the Old and New could somehow be mixed. When Christ came to earth with the spiritual Kingdom of God it was time to stop looking for some kind of...

Thank you for the gracious reply! What beautiful sentiments with truth - Happy New Year to you as well! And yes, I agree - "Even so, come, Lord Jesus, Come"

My apologies, what I meant to say in post 201 is that Christ did not answer them about the when/timing of the destruction, but He plainly declared the city and temple would be destroyed. I believe the only way the Olivet Discourse can be logically discerned that it makes sense is by...

Jesus doesn't predict a literal destruction of the temple and Jerusalem, He plainly declares it would come to pass! What you will not receive is how Jesus uses these physical realties to teach a spiritual truth. He was not focused on the Old that had already become an abomination unto God, He...

Okay, then none of the historical Christian writers have disproven the doctrine I espouse either. My doctrine is founded on the Scriptures and Holy Spirit within not on what others subscribe to.

The onus of proof? What accepted doctrine in historical Christianity disagrees who are not Preterits? What part of the doctrine I've given attempts to deny and reject truth? You're not able to receive what I've given because it disagrees with Preterism which you embrace.

The Church, the body of Christ is the heavenly Jerusalem, the bride of Christ, they are not separate entities. The body of Christ, on earth called Church spiritually is the visible representation of the Kingdom of God in heaven, and the bride of Christ is the unseen spiritual heavenly Jerusalem...

However, neither the Word of God, nor any who are not Preterits biblically prove the doctrine presented in not truth!

The disciples were speaking of the physical temple and city, but Christ did not answer them about the physical temple and city. Rather He used the temple and city as an example of the crucifixion. All the things they ask Him when they should be came to pass spiritually not physically when He...

This is prophetic message from Christ to His people of the things pertaining to His Church from the beginning of the Church when Christ came with the Kingdom of God, and continues to speak to His people throughout time until the seventh trumpet sounds. You can neither force these things into...

I would rather look through the Bible and be enlightened through the Spirit, where this truth can be found. Are there post-apostolic writers that can prove I have not rightly understood who do not hold to Preterit doctrine? Clearly here the Jews speak of the physical temple, which...

Then why did God tell them they would die ONLY if they disobeyed Him and ate of the forbidden tree? After breathing into man the breath of life, the Spirit in them would never have left them if evil had not been found in them. With a body of flesh that was not marred by sin and death, and life...

Just as Christ typically uses material, physical things familiar to us to demonstrate spiritual realities, here too He is using these physical things familiar to His disciples that through the Holy Spirit, He will send, they will remember what He said about His body being the Temple, and that...

Christ made no mention of when; He said only that the physical things of Old would not endure forever. He said this that His disciples would take their minds off the physical that was destined to destruction and fix their hearts and minds upon Him and the spiritual Kingdom of God He came to...
