    DOES NO ONE WANT TO BE CORRECTED?

    You have not reconciled Peter's declaration of the beginning of the last days at Pentecost, with the timing of Revelation 12 and 13. The timing is the same. Such repetition where something is told in different ways, is simply a Hebrew form of teaching (not two different events). For your own...

    Knowing the Day and the Hour of the Lord's Coming

    I understand your logic and deductions, but again most of these things are askew by the "lie" foretold by Paul, and thus the timing is off. Which is not just me saying so, but that history and the church has suffered apostacy already at work during the time of the apostles. These things are...

    Knowing the Day and the Hour of the Lord's Coming

    One thing at a time. So...you acknowledge and believe that the Lord has come in the flesh at His first advent, but then deny that His coming in the glory of God is not His coming again, as the spirit is greater than the flesh? You are not alone, for there are many who have and do even now deny...

    Knowing the Day and the Hour of the Lord's Coming

    You keep referring to what I said is by the Spirit of the Father, as my opinion and simply what I believe--which is not true. And you act as if you know the scriptures, but have to ask me to give you the scriptures of what is written that I have referred to. If you actually did know the...

    DOES NO ONE WANT TO BE CORRECTED?

    Much of that is true, but unfortunately the timing has been wrongly assumed--which is the "lie" spoken of by Paul. To the contrary, Peter declared the beginning of the last days at Pentecost. Which, yes, means many have need to reconsider all that is written that has for so long now been taught...

    Knowing the Day and the Hour of the Lord's Coming

    I am not going to keep entertaining your arguments. Here is what I was referring to, which--no, does not trump Paul's declaration, for they (and I) agree: Revelation 10:7 but in the days of the sounding of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound, the mystery of God would be finished, as...

    Knowing the Day and the Hour of the Lord's Coming

    Okay, I get what you are saying. But the "taking away" that you are speaking of in general, is not the taking away spoke of by Paul which I was referring to. The taking away spoken of by Paul, is in accord with what God did at the tower of Babel by confusing all language in all the world. It is...

    Knowing the Day and the Hour of the Lord's Coming

    I mentioned Matthew 13:52 because you seemed to think that I could know all things as if I were present throughout all history or had access to every word from God. My point was, that is not how prophecy works...that prophets only get their piece of the puzzle. Even so, if something unrelated to...

    "The heavens and the earth" were "created"--"WITHOUT FORM."

    Thanks Bob, I find that sort of thing amazing. Interestingly enough, there are many ways people explain the origins of the universe. God gave us one, and so has science--well maybe more than one, or rather one updated from time to time. But the real answer of origins is...God, in whom, and by...

    Knowing the Day and the Hour of the Lord's Coming

    Okay, so now that we have gotten so far off track, where are we? You were saying something about "a time of peace and how long will it last."

    Knowing the Day and the Hour of the Lord's Coming

    Okay, good. I was starting with groups...as did Paul, but you are correct, all are ultimately included.

    "The heavens and the earth" were "created"--"WITHOUT FORM."

    Light is definitely of great importance. It is in fact one of the elements of creating matter, along with energy which is the power of God. Thus, the appearing as if by form. Space (of space, time, and matter) is different. With the dividing of days "the evening" (darkness) and the morning"...

    Knowing the Day and the Hour of the Lord's Coming

    You are known (as we all are) by your fruit. I am the author of "this thread" and will answer how I see fit: No--but the scriptures say more--and so do I.

    Knowing the Day and the Hour of the Lord's Coming

    Do you not yet understand that "in that day that you eat of it you shall surely die", means before God--in the flesh we are as stillborn?

    Knowing the Day and the Hour of the Lord's Coming

    And it is true--are old man is to be dead to us--even if God has use of it for the time remaining.

    Knowing the Day and the Hour of the Lord's Coming

    You ask a question and then answer for your own hearing. Obviously, you intend to answer all your own questions. As for believing me, don't bother. But if you believe the scriptures, you would believe that the complete mystery of God was to be sealed and not revealed until just before the end...

    Knowing the Day and the Hour of the Lord's Coming

    Do not despair. You stand with less between you and the kingdom than many here. As for the voice of many opinions, yes, each expresses according to but a taste. But what do the scriptures say-- to whom is it given that "for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in...

    Knowing the Day and the Hour of the Lord's Coming

    The problem is, you have not made yourself clear. And every time you do that, your fruit of bitterness shows. But, no, that is not how prophecy works, but rather, "every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which brings forth out of...

    Knowing the Day and the Hour of the Lord's Coming

    There is indeed a residual confusion of these matters. In brief (not to repeat the great amount of confusion), the "veil" specifically refers to the blindness of the house of Israel and not the church, for it was a "veil" that constricted the full radiance of God remaining on Moses' face after...

    Knowing the Day and the Hour of the Lord's Coming

    I was simply trying to determine which passage you were referring to. So, help me understand your point. It would seem that you are counting 4,000 years from Abraham to 1948. Is that it?
