    The world has been “made right” in front of God.

    Will you argue that ALL mankind without exception is ordained to eternal life?

    The world has been “made right” in front of God.

    Jesus has come and is coming for ALL who believe! It is according to grace through faith that one comes to Christ for everlasting life, and He shall lose none of those ordained to eternal life! And none who in this life remain in unbelief shall be saved through Him!

    The world has been “made right” in front of God.

    Did not Jesus Christ come quickly, or without delay/suddenly/unexpectedly the moment you believed and were born again of His Spirit! We won't need to hold fast to what we have or fear losing our crown when Christ comes the second time. When all things have become new again, we have no more...

    The world has been “made right” in front of God.

    Not only do I know with blessed assurance that Christ has not yet come again, and is coming a second time, I anticipate that day with great joy and expectation knowing then there shall no longer be anymore sorrow or death for in that day, we have this great expectation: Revelation 21:3-5 (KJV)...

    The world has been “made right” in front of God.

    The verse is not referring to Christ' second coming. John tells us that which must shortly come to pass is the revelation of Jesus Christ, through the message preached of the testimony of Jesus Christ. The revealing of Jesus Christ unto whosoever has ears to hear the Spirit of Christ began to...

    The world has been “made right” in front of God.

    After all things have been made new, humans will exist, but there will be no more curse of death. As long as we live in a world where sin, and death through sin still exists, the world is not right with God. And shall never be until the Kingdom of God is complete, and Christ comes again. The...

    The world has been “made right” in front of God.

    The atoning blood of Christ paid the penalty, that is everlasting death, for all that God created in the beginning. By Christ's sacrificial atoning blood the sentence of death for ALL God created has been done away. That's why ALL that God created shall be made new when Christ comes the second...

    The world has been “made right” in front of God.

    If the world that now exists has already been made right with God how come the world is still burdened by sin and death?

    Partial Preterisim in Revelation through the Amillennial view. Part 1

    I'm not following your reasoning, Marty? I simply want to know if the Preterist view the discourse as Christ speaking primarily to ethnic Jews, or the disciples of Christ? Because Preterists are primarily focused on 70 AD, and don't seem to give much if any thought to the fact that Christ is...

    The term being born again vs. the term resurrection.

    Being 'quickened' when we are born again, is NOT referring to our bodily resurrection that shall be in the hour that is coming, when the last trumpet sounds, and time given this age whereby mankind might be 'quickened' spiritually, i.e. born again shall be no longer. Resurrection is to return...

    Partial Preterisim in Revelation through the Amillennial view. Part 1

    Marty, when you ask this question, do you believe that Christ was speaking to believers who were Jews? IOW is it more significant to understand that the discourse is directed primarily to the nation of Israel (Jews), or primarily to followers of Christ?

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    Exactly! Now in this age of time we, who are not physically dead, but spiritually dead while physically alive in trespasses and sins MUST hear the voice of the Son of God and they that hear have passed from spiritual death to spiritual life NOW, in this age from the first advent of Christ...

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    I've discovered that Davidpt seldom answers questions. What he likes to do is to keep asking more questions so he doesn't have to deal with the fact that his answers to our questions would force contradictions into the Word of God.

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    You again speak what you do not understand. Believing historical fulfillment of things that came to pass in 70 AD does not mean one must be a preterist to some degree. Do you deny that what Christ wrote would become of Jerusalem and the temple did not literally happen in the past? If you say...

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    Yes, you Premillennialists continue to force contradiction upon the Word of God, then ignore the fact that in doing so you turn the Word of God into man's words and wonder why Amill says you've turned the Word of God into convoluted garbage!

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    If you believe this, why do you continue to argue that after the first advent of Christ, after He returned to His Father in heaven, after He made atonement for sin, after He defeated death, that disembodied souls cannot be alive with Him in heaven also, since He went there to prepare a place for...

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    You seem not to even notice that the witch was able to speak to the spirit of Samuel after he had physically died? How could that be possible unless the spirit of Samuel lived on after his body had breathed its last? The witch describes that which she was able to conjure up, "I saw gods...

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    Sorry to disappoint you, but I am at peace! Since you're the one continuing to push a false doctrine, the torment is no doubt causing you such consternation! That is unless your conscience has been so utterly seared that the Holy Spirit no longer convicts you!

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    Samuel came up through the power of evil! This was done through the providence of God to send a message to Saul telling him the LORD had departed from him. 1 Samuel 28:9 (KJV) And the woman said unto him, Behold, thou knowest what Saul hath done, how he hath cut off those that have familiar...

    Getting to the heart of the Amil confusion

    This is a vision, but it is important to note that these two Old Covenant faithful saints were shown in the vision as proof there is life (spiritual) after death for those of Old who died before the advent of Christ. According to the Old Covenant prophets those of faith would be redeemed from...
