In all of NT scripture, there are only two prophetic mothers being revealed. The one below is fallen (earthly Jerusalem), and the one above is free (heavenly Jerusalem). Gal. 4:21-31. Earthly Jerusalem is "the daughter of Zion". Heavenly Jeruselem is Zion, "the mother of us all". The "daughter"...

Not all of Zech. 14 is fulfilled in the 3rd manifestation of Jesus, His visible and Glorious Immortality. Have you forgotten that in Jesus' 1st manifestation, He showed how He wages war, by what He accomplished through His death and resurrection and was glorified? John 7:39. Though most of...

Why would Jesus fight for the nation of Israel, when they STILL don't believe in Him? Anyone who doesn't believe in Jesus is condemned already. John 3:18

In KJV-Acts 1:9-11, it doesn't say anything about from where Jesus was "taken up", but rather HOW He was "taken up". It clearly says: [9] And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. [10] And while they looked stedfastly...

That's not what Acts 1:9-11 says. You and many others are assuming! Don't you yet know that the OC prophets were not allowed to know in which of the three manifestations* of Jesus, that Zech. 4:4 was to be fulfilled? *1. In the likeness of our mortal flesh. *2. In the Spirit after His...

Rom. 3 [19] Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. [20] Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the...

Acts 1 [9] And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. [10] And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; [11] Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand...

No Israelite, whether under the OC or the NC can be saved without faith in the shed blood of Christ. So also the Gift of God, the receiving of God's Holy Spirit, could not be permanently given to anyone, until the glorification of Jesus through His resurrection. John 7:39. Are you saying that...

Apparently, you have not studied and digested all of Rom. 9. Israel as a chosen people of God came to It's end in 70AD. However, since Pentecost, they each must now come to Christ for their salvation. If not, then they each, for all who refuse, remain under the judgment of God as it is for every...

Only God knows the intentions of one's heart, of why a person professes to believe in Jesus. The question is, was it motivated by the flesh, or by the Spirit. Those looking on may never know if a person had a "one on one" with Jesus or not. However, their testimony, or lack thereof, will reveal...

Sorry, your first paragraph missed it, as to what Jesus shall do for all who personally invite Him into their life. The church cannot give the Holy Spirit of God to anyone!! Only Jesus does. For that we must ASK! Luke 11:13 Those who have repented, and do believe, but HAVE NOT invited Jesus...

And Mat. 3:11 says exactly what John the baptist said about the church (?),.... or was he speaking about Jesus? Mat. 3:11. See also Rom. 8:8-9, 1 John 5:12-13 and Rev. 3:20.

How about planned negligence is more like it. Houses and vehicles were turned into ash heaps, and melted glass and aluminum on cars, but living trees close to the fires were not terribly damaged. Outstanding Report on the Maui "WildFires" by 48-yr Arborist...

(^ Ref. Post #154) Yes!! And let us all not forget Simeon, who was given by the Holy Spirit, that he would see the Savior before his death. Luke 2:25-35 Nathaniel and Simeon both were examples of the Israel of faith, who were looking for "the Promise to come", the Messiah Jesus.

Even the the OC saints had to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit, but only AFTER Jesus was glorified in His Resurrection, for the Holy Spirit WAS NOT YET GIVEN [to anyone] John 7:39. We see that taking place in Rev. 6:9-11. All of such are the symbolic 144,000, and ever since Jesus'...

I'm glad you said that, because it's not the church that baptises anyone with the Holy Spirit of God, but rather Jesus. There are MANY that go through the waters of baptism being totally ignorant of the fact that one must come to Jesus Himself, one on one by committing to Him, and not a church...

^(Referencing to my post #148) Please see Mat. 3 [11] I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:

You are correct. Jesus Himself is the root of the "good tree", not Israel. Israel without Christ cannot produce the fruit of the Spirit, Gal. 5:22-23; Eph. 5:9. When they EACH do come to God through faith in Jesus, they are THEN grafted back to God, by being born again of God's Holy Spirit...

Both Jew and Gentile, since Pentecost, through faith in Christ of His first appearance in the flesh, will be of the Great Multitude. The 144,000 were under the OC. Please see my post #314, of which answers the OP's question: ,"Who really are the 144,000?" .

There is no controversy over the bodies of Christ collectively (the body of Christ), who are born again of God's Holy Spirit, of whom are made to be NEW creatures, aka a NEW creation IN Christ Jesus. It's all about understanding the difference of being sin-less, as opossed to being sin-free...
