    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    I present Biblical truth! Since the Bible proves your doctrine to be erroneous you cannot biblically refute, you throw out labels. I've noticed you label anyone who disagrees with you. Why is that? If your doctrine is Biblical, you should be able to prove that which you assume?

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    While I find much agreement in your biblical understanding of the physical body of all life on earth, you seem to have no understanding of the spirit or breath of life that every living creature upon this earth must have to be a complete soul. God took the clay (dust of the earth) and formed...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    This is the time/age/era of the Church, the Gospel age while Christ is building His Kingdom as the Gospel is proclaimed unto all the earth in the power of the Holy Spirit. There has never been any entity on this earth that has suffered greater tribulation and continued not only to endure...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    I find it hard to believe that one who professes to be in Christ would not know the Church in this world must endure "great tribulation" until the end of this age??? Every tribulation and trial is great for the believer who called to keep the faith even unto death! Romans 5:3-6 (KJV) And not...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    No they physically died because they had partaken of the resurrection of Christ, Who is the "first resurrection". Why do you keep denying that one must partake of the resurrection of Christ to have eternal life? John sees beheaded LIVING; i.e spiritual life, souls in heaven after they had...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    It is you who wishes to raise a strawman! You are the one who says Christ reigns ON this earth. The verse does not agree, Christ reigns from heaven bringing judgment and justice IN this earth. He does this through His Gospel being proclaimed in the power of His Spirit to all who are in the...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    Yes, I'm glad you understand the OT prophesy about Christ began to be fulfilled with the advent of Christ. Again, I agree, His Kingdom is not NOW of this world, and will not be of this world ever! Daniel tells us that when Christ ascended to heaven after His resurrection, He was given a...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    No so! Christ is now in the Kingdom of heaven where He is ruling and reigning over the earth. He is not ON the earth, but none the less He rules over it. You insist He must be ON the earth if He is to reign over it.

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    While the Church will be on this earth during this Gospel age when "great tribulation" will come against the Church, the Church will be raptured on the last day of this age when the wrath of God through fiery judgment will come down from God out of heaven to utterly destroy all who are left...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    You're not reading very carefully! Christ shall execute judgment and justice IN the earth, not ON the earth. Christ does not reign ON this earth, He is currently reigning and executing judgment and justice over His people from the Kingdom of heaven where He currently is and has been since His...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    Yes a study is required! You need to understand the prophets foretell of the coming of the Lord in time, when all that is written of Him must be fulfilled. To understand the prophesies about the coming Messiah, you must interpret their words being fulfilled with the advent of Christ. If you...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    This prophesy is fulfilled through the advent of Christ coming to earth a man. Jeremiah does not say Christ the righteous Branch and a King shall reign on this earth. Jeremiah 23:5-6 (KJV) Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    They were martyred because they had partaken of the resurrection of Christ while still alive. Christ is the first resurrection we must partake of to live with Christ in heaven after death. Not every believer is martyred for their faith. That does not mean they are not part of the resurrection...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    The only way the words of the prophets make any sense is to realize their prophesy began to be fulfilled when Christ came to earth a man. Christ came in His Day just as the prophets foretell He would. But for some people the only Day of the Lord coming will be His coming on the last day of...

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    Which of those passages tell us Christ will reign on THIS earth? Jeremiah 23 ends with vs. 40.

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    Yes, His will be done on earth, and it will be on earth after this first earth passes away. The New Jerusalem will come down from heaven as a bride adorned for her husband with the new heaven and new earth. That's when "thy will be done on earth" because only His people will dwell with Him...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    If you mean life through the Spirit in them, I agree! When we possess this life through His Spirit in us the life we have through Him is eternal, and shall never end.

    2 Peter 3:10 The Big Whoosh

    If we isolate the prayer from the rest of Scripture we might think His Kingdom will be on THIS earth. But when we understand the prayer in light of other verses we understand His Kingdom will not be on this earth, but will come to the new earth after this first earth has passed away. That's...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    Yes, the physical resurrection at the last day of this age will be literal. And I'm certain these martyred saints will confirm they were literally, physically martyred for their faith. What you don't seem to understand is that whosoever is in Christ need have no fear of physical death. Because...
