    More biblical proof that supports Amillennialism

    There is nothing reasonable when it comes to millennialists!

    After the Devil is Cast Out

    It is a rhetorical question that assumes professing Christians should know all that is written originates from God. 2 Timothy 3:16 (KJV) All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 2 Peter 1:21...

    The Transition from Time...to Eternity.

    Instead of saying time will continue forever in eternity, I would say life continues forever, and that means without time.

    More biblical proof that supports Amillennialism

    Christ has come, just as the Old Covenant Prophets foretold He would. Since He has already come, we now look for Him to appear the second time without sin unto salvation. For the life of me I cannot fathom why millennialists continue to look for the coming of Christ the Old Testament Prophets...

    Two sets of a thousand years.

    Marty, a thousand years that symbolizes time given the Church to proclaim the Gospel, is finished when the thousand years expire. Satan is released when the spiritual Kingdom of God in heaven is complete. It's true time for building and time for Satan's binding comes to an end when the...

    Two sets of a thousand years.

    Marty, I really don't see what you do. There is only a/the thousand years during which time Satan is bound, the Gospel is proclaimed unto all the earth, and when men shall believe the Gospel and reign with Christ, and men are martyred for their faith having already lived and reigned with...

    Is knowing what death is a comfort?

    The spirit in man is our mind, heart, it's also described as wind which expresses feelings and emotions. Our spirit controls every organ and function of our body. It is through our spirit that our body has physical life, and our minds think and reason. It is through our spirit that the Spirit...

    After the Devil is Cast Out

    The better question is where did both Daniel and Matthew get the prophesy from?

    Is knowing what death is a comfort?

    David knew exactly how to pray that God would save him from physically dying. Because the dead body knows nothing, and cannot praise the Lord. Sheol is where dead bodies go when the spirit within man returns to God who gave it.

    Is knowing what death is a comfort?

    The breath of life God breathes into "OUR" spirit. It was in the beginning when God created man, He gave life to our spirit through breathing His Holy Spirit into us. When man sinned against God, that very day the spirit in man became "dead in trespasses and sins" (became natural, of the...

    Is knowing what death is a comfort?

    The disagreement is with your opinion that believes it is based on Scripture.

    Did God commend or approve of Rahab’s lie?

    Have you never heard of how God uses evil to accomplish His purposes? Genesis 45:5-8 (KJV) Now therefore be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that ye sold me hither: for God did send me before you to preserve life. For these two years hath the famine been in the land: and yet there...

    Two sets of a thousand years.

    I agree Marty! Satan didn't need to be bound for Christ to reign!

    Two sets of a thousand years.

    Marty, I don't believe the binding of Satan must end before the reigning begins. John sees the dead in heaven, alive after death because in life they were martyred for their faith. Then in vs 5 John says the rest of the dead will not live again until the thousand years were finished. It seems...

    Two sets of a thousand years.

    Marty, this is a topic I too have recently been dwelling on. However, my understanding is in contrast to yours. I don't believe Rev 20 shows two sets of a thousand years. I believe John writes a/the thousand years to show TIME on this earth likened to a thousand years. Satan is first bound...

    Did God commend or approve of Rahab’s lie?

    I don't think of it as ridiculous, perhaps you can explain why you feel it is ridiculous?

    Did God commend or approve of Rahab’s lie?

    So you don't believe that God Providentially guides and directs what shall come to pass according to His Divine will? The Bible says "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shall be saved." I agree, Rahab believed the God of Israel was the true God, and for that reason God used her to...

    Is knowing what death is a comfort?

    I'm glad we have some agreement. When God created mankind He made them of earth, with spirit (breath of life) and the two parts became a living soul. First body, then spirit, and together living soul. This is true of every living creature upon the earth. Life to our body comes from our...

    Did God commend or approve of Rahab’s lie?

    I haven't read through every reply here, so someone else may have already pointed this out. It seems the context should begin from verse 1. Why did the two spies go into this particular house? It seems to me that by His Divine Providence, God orchestrated all that came to pass in Jericho that...

    Is knowing what death is a comfort?

    I beg to differ Elie! Christ is very clear that whosoever lives and believes in Him shall NEVER DIE! Martha thought her brother would not live again until the resurrection at the last day. Jesus explains why she is wrong by physically resurrecting her brother to life again. This was done to...
