    Romans 11 and the real Replacement Theology

    continuation of post #36 Revelation 11:3-13 (KJV) And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. And if any man...

    Romans 11 and the real Replacement Theology

    The problem I've found with viewing "this generation" as the evil generation that shall be within and without the Church until they are utterly destroyed by the fire of God from heaven, is that Christ was speaking to the disciples about the things they and all the Church must endure from that...

    How Evil Are Humans?

    Jesus has already come to Israel! Guess who rejected Him when He came to them? Israel in unbelief who denied the Messiah they waited for had come in the flesh, and His name was called Jesus.

    How Evil Are Humans?

    Yes, and you refuse to acknowledge that all Israel that shall be saved is not Israel in unbelief, but the Israel of God, once the fullness of the Gentiles are saved together with Israel of faith, all the Israel of God whom Christ came to save shall be saved. Not ethnic people, but all people of...

    How Evil Are Humans?

    Both Israel of faith, together with Gentiles of faith are the Church, "the Israel of God".

    How Evil Are Humans?

    Yes, the Lord God of Israel had redeemed HIS PEOPLE. His people are not Israel in unbelief, His people are Israel of faith in Christ, as well as Gentiles of faith with them. They are called "the Israel of God." Galatians 6:15-16 (KJV) For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any...

    How Evil Are Humans?

    Even this passage from Zechariah, which I assume you believe is future, speaks only of the remnant of the people from the city who shall not be cut off. Does that not tell you that only the remnant is Israel of faith, and the rest who are cut off are Israel in unbelief? As long as they deny...

    How Evil Are Humans?

    The difference between Christians and unbelieving Israel is that when we met Jesus, we stopped being against Him, turning to Him by grace through faith in repentance believing. Unfortunately to date unbelieving Israel still denies the Messiah they were promised would come to redeem them...

    How Evil Are Humans?

    This passage says God has not cast away His people whom He foreknew. Do you believe the people of God from Israel in whom God foreknew includes Israel in unbelief? Is His Covenant to save Israel with unbelievers? Paul says that all Israel that shall be saved, are saved when the fulness of the...

    Romans 11 and the real Replacement Theology

    This is why I believe the Church (universal) are the chosen generation/holy nation that is the generation Christ says, "This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled." The Church will remain alive upon the earth until the spiritual Kingdom of God is complete during this...

    Christians Wake up!

    My point is that unbiblical doctrine comes in many different forms. To single out the Creeds seems you have something against the Creeds and Confessions of different Churches. It's fine if you don't agree with Creeds, but remember you too believe in a Creed every time you say Jesus is Lord...

    How Jesus has ALREADY Reconciled Us and the World unto God.

    Not sure what you're talking about, since I never said anything about rehabilitating old things. In fact the verses I gave you tells us all things shall be made new! Even those who die in Christ shall be resurrected to immortal & incorruptible body. We participate in the life, death, burial...

    RELIGION: Trying to do in the flesh what God has already done in Jesus Christ

    The gift of God is salvation for whosoever believes in the Gospel. That gift comes by grace through faith; the gift of God that no man may boast. Fallen mankind, spiritually dead in trespasses and sins must be imputed with faith to believe which is the result of God's grace. So then faith...

    How Jesus has ALREADY Reconciled Us and the World unto God.

    This is true, however once this first heaven and earth passes away, because of Christ's sacrificial life, death and resurrection there will be a new heaven and a new earth wherein dwells righteousness. God's glorious creation shall be saved through the obedience of Christ to do all the work the...

    When were angels created?

    This verse does not say that Jesus is God's first creation. It attributes creation from the beginning as being from Him. Revelation 3:14 (KJV) And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation...

    How Jesus has ALREADY Reconciled Us and the World unto God.

    I think what you lack understanding about is that Christ provides salvation for all that God created. Through Him creation shall be saved, as well as whosoever lives and believes in Him.

    How Jesus has ALREADY Reconciled Us and the World unto God.

    I believe the more biblically accurate way to define who salvation has been provided for is to repeat Christ when He says. For the Bible speaks of more than the salvation for all who shall believe. It also tells us that all of creation shall be saved through Christ. John 3:15-21 (KJV) That...

    RELIGION: Trying to do in the flesh what God has already done in Jesus Christ

    This is true! And even the ability to repent and believe in Christ comes through the gift of faith that accompanies all who are eternally saved. John 4:10 (KJV) Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest...

    RELIGION: Trying to do in the flesh what God has already done in Jesus Christ

    Here is how we fulfill the commandments of Christ. Not according to works of righteousness that we do, because even our love for the Lord thy God and thy neighbor comes through His Spirit working in us. Matthew 22:37-40 (KJV) Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all...

    How Jesus has ALREADY Reconciled Us and the World unto God.

    No one denies this! The problem is your insistence that Christ has come to save everyone, without also acknowledging "everyone who believes." Surely you can see the difference? Christ came to save mankind without distinction, but not without exception, because many are already lost in their sins.
