    What you are not understanding is how the New Covenant enlarges upon what is written of Old. In Christ there is neither Jew nor Gentile, but ONE people in Christ. When we read in the New Testament that Israel is no longer comprised of ethnic people (Jews only) but is in fact "all Israel that...

    It was only through the power of the Holy Spirit given the Apostles through the breath of Christ that through them the Holy Spirit gave them this ability. Just as the power Christ possessed came through the power of the Spirit in Him, so too this power given the Apostles of Christ only had this...

    No one has said what is written in the New makes the Old Covenant promises void. We have repeatedly shown from the New Testament how to understand the fulfillment of the promises of Old. Fulfillment is through Christ by the New Covenant He ushered in. You believe the prophesy of Old cannot...

    You're reading every one of them into the prophesy! That is not what the prophets of Old or the New Testament say! That's why you cannot acknowledge that after 70 years of captivity the remnant, that is those who had faith did return to the re-built city and Holy Temple, the second time...

    It would seem that he gives little to no heed about what is written concerning ethnic Israel in the NT. His doctrine comes from reading the Old Testament prophets while ignoring what is written in the New.

    Today, or this age is the day/age/time/era from the beginning of redemptive history until Christ comes the second time for which mankind MUST be saved. During this age of TIME the covering (unbelief) must be removed from the hearts and minds of those who shall be eternally saved. Whosoever...

    You don't appear to know who Israel that shall be saved are??? Why would believers (Israel of God) be content with inheriting again the land of promise, since in Christ believers shall inherit the whole new earth? Your doctrine is informed using only that which is written in the Old without...

    Will you be caught up in the rapture or left-behind??

    I agree David! Those taken away are destroyed by the waters of the flood while only those who entered the ark were saved.

    As David NJ has already stated the prophecies of Old are fulfilled in Christ. But you are locked into Christian Zionistic dispensationalism which is the greatest betrayal of Israel. You promote a doctrine that tells the unbelieving nation they need not worry because Christ will come to them...

    I've not witnessed anyone denying the prophesies of old. But you, like unbelieving Jews today, fail to understand the prophesies of old are fulfilled in Christ. The only prophesy left to be fulfilled is Christ, as King of kings and Lord of lords coming again with glory and in wrath to gather...

    Exactly! The individuals chosen to salvation are ALL people of faith called, "Israel of God." 1 Peter 2:4-10 (KJV) To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious, Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood...

    What does that tell you about ethnic Israel? Have you not read the words of Isaiah, quoted by Paul "Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved"? Isaiah is not speaking of an ethnic people, but the people of God from the nation. It is unto...

    Will you be caught up in the rapture or left-behind??

    I agree the faithful saints caught up to meet the Lord in the air will be with Him. But they will not return to the earth that now is! The reason the faithful are caught up to meet the Lord in the air is because this earth and everything on it will be burned up. Then we who are with the Lord...

    Will you be caught up in the rapture or left-behind??

    Anyone believing salvation will still be possible after the coming of Christ, when He sends His angels to gather His elect from heaven and the four corners of the earth, are living in fantasy. Christ clearly tells us "the end" shall come when after the Gospel has been preached unto all the...

    Do you have no knowledge or understanding of Jewish history? I ask because you don't seem to understand that the words Ezekiel spoke came to fulfillment after Israel suffered through seventy years of captivity. Then after the seventy years the LORD allowed Jerusalem and the Temple to be...

    Are you suggesting that Elijah though already having come in Spirit through John-the-Baptist, will be resurrected from the dead and physically come to the earth again? If this is what you believe, please show biblical proof being resurrected from the grave before the hour that is coming when...

    You have yet to prove through Scripture that ethnic Israel shall be regathered to their land since its final destruction in 70 AD. There shall be only ONE gathering of all humanity at the GWTJ. There the saints, represented as sheep and the unbelievers, represented as goats shall stand before...

    Actually Christ says Elijah had come and through his preaching the Gospel all things shall be restored. Not by Elijah coming in the future, but because Elijah is the first New Testament prophet to proclaim the Gospel unto the Jews, and through the Gospel preached, the Kingdom of God was being...

    Christ is already dead too, but we can still enter into the Kingdom of God by grace through faith IF we believe. The same is true of John-the-Baptist, all who heard him and believed the Gospel he proclaimed were baptized of him, confessing their sins. Isaiah also writes of one who would come...

    Exactly! Christ spoke of Elijah to come in the future, and Christ basically says the prophesy is fulfilled in John-the-Baptist. And through his preaching the hearts of many were changed as they embraced as they repented and accepted the truth of the Kingdom of heaven ordained to come. Matthew...
