Please read what I say more carefully. I did not say ALL of the prophecies up to this point were literally fulfilled. I said the prophesy of God to be fulfilled physically to the Old Covenant nation have been fulfilled, and nailed to the cross through the advent of Christ. What is not...

There are two ways to understand the prophesy of Old. If God was speaking directly to those of Old, His prophetic words HAVE BEEN physically fulfilled specifically to them. As it was after the 70 years of captivity and they were allowed to return to Jerusalem and rebuild the Temple. But those...

That really isn't necessary! Because the Israel of God, which includes both Jews & Gentiles of faith together in one holy nation unto God, are NOT looking for physical land upon an earth that is ordained to destruction.

Those who are in Christ are not still lost in sin. They have been restored to what they were in the beginning when God created man and pronounced them "very good." Because God sees His people through His Son, and they already possess eternal life through His sacrificial death, and they shall...

This prophesy is fulfilled in Christ. You are reading the Old Covenant as though Christ has not already come and has fulfilled, and is fulfilling all that was written from the Old. You're reading the Old Testament in isolation without considering how the prophesies of Old are fulfilled for all...

Since you believe Jesus tasted death for everybody to ever live, yet many have died are dying and shall die in unbelief, are some whom Jesus tasted death for able to resist the will of God? If Christ tasted death for all of humanity without exception, why does His death not provide forgiveness...

I read from Scripture that eternal life (salvation) is only for whosoever from among this world believe by grace through faith, the gift (salvation) that comes from God. Read in context. Hebrews 2:9-13 shows us that Jesus brings many, not all sons unto glory, and they are the children given...

I was of the mindset that "this generation" Christ said would not pass away until the end was the "evil generation" that belonged to their father, the devil. I still believe evil will always be with the saints on this earth until Christ comes again. But what I failed to consider in this...

What is the purpose for Christ speaking in parables? If the parable of the fig tree was given for the same purpose for which He spoke all the other parables, then Christ would have told the parable to His disciples so they might understand the spiritual Kingdom of God has come, and they will be...

Why would God restore ethnic Israel to the land of Caanan since He has promised those of faith shall inherit the whole earth?

Scripture tells us there are souls alive after physical death. How can that be if the spirit does not live on after physical death and called a soul without human form? Having a soul is to have life in some form. It is the spirit (breath of life) which gives our body of flesh life as a...

Only that part of Christ's living soul that went into the tomb was His physical body. And as Stumpmaster has shown us the spirit, or that part of His living soul that gave physical life to His mortal body, returned to God who gave it. Ecclesiastes 12:7 (KJV) Then shall the dust return to the...

A verse typically omitted when trying to understand the actions of Adam & Eve at creation, gives us a little more insight about how and why the serpent was able to deceive the woman, and subsequently the man who readily followed the woman in disobedience to God's command, "Ye shall not eat"...

You said, "Jesus has reconciled us and the world unto God" - who exactly do you mean has been reconciled to God along with the world?

Why would this matter? Since the name 'Christian' was readily accepted by the Church and early Church fathers. The commentary I gave spoke of King Agrippa using the term Christian as "That the term Christianus is used as a neutral and sufficiently respectful word by Agrippa in Ac 26:23, and at...

You beat me to it! :Zek:

1 Peter 4:16 (KJV) Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.

Acts 11:19-26 (KJV) Now they which were scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephen travelled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none but unto the Jews only. And some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene, which, when they were come to Antioch...

That's not what is said Mark. What many have come to understand is that ethnic Israel, being Israel still, never stopped being Israel, however they are the part of Israel the nation, that has always been in unbelief. Those in unbelief do not belong to those in the nation who are of faith in...

Why do you refuse to deal with the "Israel of God" who are neither Jew nor Gentile but all people of faith??? Allegorized??? I don't believe Paul was using allegoric language, but plain speaking plainly explaining that man will only find peace and mercy from God when they are of "the Israel of...
