    Let's exegete Hebrews 10:37 in context

    You asked for a stone, and I gave you bread. Yes, it came to them, but I have not refused to acknowledge that context. It is you who have not acknowledged the greater context that involves the whole body even to the end of the church age, of which the lesser context to us was a foreshadowing of...

    Let's exegete Hebrews 10:37 in context

    The time of Pentecost was "a very little while", "but" He would continue to come to "each (individual) in his own order" during the times of the gentiles, as Paul was an apostle to the gentiles.

    Let's exegete Hebrews 10:37 in context

    I did in post #5. But okay, perhaps a more classic approach: Hebrews 10:37 “For yet a little while, And He who is coming will come and will not tarry." A "little while" was indeed simply: a little while. "He who is coming" is God--not the Son of God, for He was flesh and blood, and He does not...

    Let's exegete Hebrews 10:37 in context

    That is good--I compliment you. However, then you violate the same principle. A little leaven leavens the whole lump. You include yourself in the eisegesis by elevating "the clear writings", supposing them to be "clear" when it is written that they are not, but are purposely confused by God...

    Does God know why he exists?

    That's cool. I mean, it's okay. I can answer. God is all-knowing, so yes, He knows why He exists. But you have many questions, and like many, you have questions because we only have part of the information. That was intentional. Until now. The world is not a created addition to the kingdom of...

    Let's exegete Hebrews 10:37 in context

    Don't be so foolish. Did Christ "hijack" the Psalms of David? Did Paul "hijack" the law to claim his gospel was according to "two or three witnesses?"

    Let's exegete Hebrews 10:37 in context

    Again--you are not hearing me. This is one of those "which is greater, the gold or the temple that sanctifies the gold?" issues...and you do not see--or give God credit for that which is greater--but preach the lesser which only points to what is greater. Meanwhile, I have told you "which is...

    Let's exegete Hebrews 10:37 in context

    The church is indeed sick--apostate. But you too come bringing your own agenda, as if your studies have raised you up above the restraint placed upon the church by God--studies that cannot reveal until the times are fulfilled, at which time the finish was only to come as foretold.

    Let's exegete Hebrews 10:37 in context

    Did I describe a "futurists" explanation? Have I at all aligned with any stereotype? No. Did you say that "the entire subject of the Book of Hebrews is CHRIST and His work of salvation?" Yes--but your explanation asserts a final end of the acts of Christ at 70ad. You are showing obvious signs...

    Let's exegete Hebrews 10:37 in context

    Your stating the idea that all was finished in that generation of Christ, is good. But let me help you with the greater "time no longer" truth (Revelation 10:6): Your presentation and assertion is time or history-based, while the acts of God actually are not. The truth of this was eluded to in...

    When Christ returns, we shall all be changed, including heaven and earth, actually all things are changed out for something better.

    NOT ALL the gentiles. Do you not know that that just as the Son was three day in the heart of the earth to recover the dead, He also recovered the living, including those yet unborn?

    When Christ returns, we shall all be changed, including heaven and earth, actually all things are changed out for something better.

    Reject what you will, it's not from me, but from God...what the seven thunders uttered, now revealed.

    When Christ returns, we shall all be changed, including heaven and earth, actually all things are changed out for something better.

    You're not hearing me. Time is a created illusion, the key component of the restraint by Him who restrains, placed upon revelation, knowledge, and understanding. Yes, you have many things correct about the timing of all things, but you are missing what was sealed until now--"time no...

    When Christ returns, we shall all be changed, including heaven and earth, actually all things are changed out for something better.

    Correct! But some want to consider it all as many among the early Christians did, as if perhaps they missed it. Which is not what that is all about. Nor are they all just historic events only regarding that generation. What Jesus was eluding to, is that although He "was slain before the...

    When Christ returns, we shall all be changed, including heaven and earth, actually all things are changed out for something better.

    That is all well and good for that historic context. But just as it is wrong not to consider the biblical use of metaphoric language, it is also wrong to limit the events as only being historic, when much of the scriptures--nay, all the scriptures actually point to and foreshadow their greater...

    When Christ returns, we shall all be changed, including heaven and earth, actually all things are changed out for something better.

    They didn't know everything. However, the general thrust of scripture speaks of and indicates a beginning and an end--time no longer, and the elements of this world destroyed. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and...

    When Christ returns, we shall all be changed, including heaven and earth, actually all things are changed out for something better.

    Yes, I understand the language, but then again all language has been confused and must be spiritually discerned. That is why I said, "end of the world"--because when the times of this age are fulfilled--this world is finished.

    The last hour

    1 John 2:18, like many passages of scripture--"as long as today is called today"--is always true. There certainly was a particular significance to that time, as it was the apex of fulfilment surrounding the cross. Which, just as the cross encompassed all of time and all people, so too was...

    WHAT IS THIS WORLD REALLY ABOUT? WHY ARE WE HERE?

    So it may seem. However, all this world, even the world before, is rather made manifest in this place and time for the first and only time--not for freewill, but because of it. After the fact. In other words, this world is uniquely the physical manifestation (by creation) and "image" brought...

    WHAT IS "THE GREAT RESET"?

    The Vatican has been taken over by the Deep State. Here is a pic of the pope when Trump told him it's over:
