    Understanding PARABLES

    That sounds like a formula of perhaps the best practices of men. However, I have a better formula, called being "caught up to the third heaven." I wasn't going to jump right into that, but felt the need to be clear on this point.

    Understanding PARABLES

    One thing at a time. Above you say that "the Elect will travel to their moment of conversion" as if meaning "each one in his own order"--that much is good and correct. But then you go on to say what "is unfulfilled" until a "future" "bodily resurrection from the grave"...as if not "each one in...

    How Zionism Stole Jewish Identity

    I would have "Liked" what you posted, except you misrepresented what I said. Only one of us you mentioned claimed Israel was the dirt or bloodline. :disappointed:

    Understanding PARABLES

    Joe, Your account is as good or better than I have seen, yet not perfect, suffering still from the aftermath of false teachings causing many to explain away all that is true--which in you is very little. But I will have to take them one at a time, for the influence of errors is ages old. Before...

    How Zionism Stole Jewish Identity

    You are right about most of Israel being secular. But most of the rest is just what is in the news, and fake. Have you not heard about the biolabs and Biden-owned property in Ukraine? Most haven't because it doesn't get good news coverage. But there is also more than biolabs--much more. But...

    Understanding PARABLES

    Joe, Good--we are very close! The website was not my post, but rather my signature line. No coincidence I should think. We have much to collaborate on. I am not sure what exactly you were referring to on my website, but you have made many of the same arguments that I too have made and are...

    How Zionism Stole Jewish Identity

    Oh, but I do have a map, actually an overview which I received from on high, caught up to the third heaven, which was then confirmed by the map of scripture revealed by the Holy Spirit.

    How Zionism Stole Jewish Identity

    No--Israel is not imprisoned in this world forever. Their "forever" is with God in Christ. Sorry, if you don't understand that :disappointed:

    Understanding PARABLES

    From your comment, perhaps you are replying to @FaithWillDo and rightly so, he has given a good word of explanation. Paul also referred to that time between the early and the latter rain (the water below and the water above the firmament), as seeing "through a glass dimly, but then face to...

    The Unjust Steward (Luke 16:1-18)

    Other than the moral context regarding ministry and the handling of God's word, the parable also includes a revelation of prophecy...as I have explained (and yet you keep coming back to the moral context as if that were the extent of what is written): The parable is a warning and prophecy of...

    The Unjust Steward (Luke 16:1-18)

    All the world including us fail and pass away, even "we who are alive and remain." Even so, the keys to the kingdom are ours, and also those who even misuse them to "their own destruction", by whom some of us came into the fold even by their schemes. "They" are those who have perpetrated the...

    How Zionism Stole Jewish Identity

    Yes, that earthly kingdom and temple is from natural men expecting the scriptures refer to a worldly kingdom and temple made of stone.

    How Zionism Stole Jewish Identity

    Jack, I hope you don't take this wrong--for I too love the history and the idea of where biblical events occurred--but the old lands are not the promised land of the bible, but were a mere foreshadowing now left as a habitation of jackals. Israel--the dead in Christ--are with Him in His...

    Understanding PARABLES

    You simply did not understand what I wrote. Read it again. Meanwhile, I have elaborated as you asked, though it was not warranted based on your noted distain.

    How Zionism Stole Jewish Identity

    Unfortunately, this is a major can of worms. The actual history behind the formation of the modern state of Israel...actually began--not with Christians, although that may be a convenient assumption--it began with Satanists. Which is now hard to uncover because most of the history has been...

    Understanding PARABLES

    There is a simple, though often profound, context associated with many parables that is good, however limited. But that is not the purpose of the common parables, or the overall parable nature of all scripture. In other words, God has indeed given in the scriptures words to live by in this...

    The Unjust Steward (Luke 16:1-18)

    Your hypothesis assumes the future is unwritten, and depends on those created to do their part in addition to God doing His, as if He alone were not enough for His will to be done. Your hypothesis is wrong.

    Understanding PARABLES

    Parables in the scriptures are not the same as parables elsewhere. Parables elsewhere may have multiple meanings too--even a hidden meaning, or not. But in the scriptures parables have their own structure not at all common elsewhere. In no other literature are there parables that include a...
