    Who are the 144,000?

    My thoughts are perhaps God set himself aside people, whom ended up meeting Christ Jesus and they were set aside as the bride of Christ (the first 144,000 fruits being the spotless blameless church which was to be the bride whom Christ would come back for during the times which came upon those...

    The folly of Preterism

    But if all of mankind die in the earth now, And, then there is no such thing as an everlasting kingdom that forever increases. Isaiah 9:7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with...

    How to Walk in Righteousness

    That is true. For us to be able to understand like God can, it must be considerably infinite. Yahweh says here that his thoughts are not our thoughts (earthly understanding) , nor our ways (earthly soulish), his ways (heavenly minded, and perfect in all ways, he is a giver of good gifts.)...

    How to Walk in Righteousness

    Hello again, You must read your Bible an awful lot, in my opinion. Yes this is right. There is no human who has ever been righteous in their flesh. Abraham’s faith, made him righteous with God for having believed the promise God had made to him. He was right with God for believing in him...

    Trying To Work This Out - Outer Darkness

    Perhaps there are shades outside of the kingdom, from Gods light that fills the kingdom. And the further you go out, the darker it gets until you can no longer find your way back. Because some people will go so far our they can’t even see the kingdom; those who do not believe are said to not be...

    Reasons Jews Reject Jesus

    The conclusion that comes to me, is their envious attitude toward Jesus Christ and his perfection, which his flesh was able to obtain having been the Word of God born, by the Holy Spirit, and the flesh of Mary. Matthew 27:18 For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.

    Who are the 144,000?

    Servants of God it looks like. Specific to the 12 tribes, and those are faithful towards God, could consider them first century Christian’s, or the first ones to believe in the message which when Jesus had come proclaimed to be lost sheep of Israel, and Paul did outreach to the gentiles later on.

    Is God synonymous with Truth

    Hello space Karen, God would be synonymous with truth. It seems that by faith, God truthfully decided to create a world to put human beings on. Truth is something that will set a person free. Jesus claims he is the way, the truth, and the life. Jesus spoke truth, and done the will of his Father...

    The folly of Preterism

    how do you deal with the scriptures that I shared earlier though @WPM?

    Spiritual etymology

    Not so sure those things stem from the devil as much it could be our own, soul. Jesus made this remark, Within a person lies all the things of the heart which Jesus mentions to the people that he is around at this moment. From out of the heart of man, come evil reasonings. And these things...

    Interesting synopsis thank you for sharing.

    The folly of Preterism

    You probably did not read all of the post that have been made anyways. That is not my fault and it is okay. There is no reason to argue or to try to change one’s mind if they are convinced anyway of how they see scripture. @WPM.

    The folly of Preterism

    Is the destruction of the wicked generation and the saved from the wrath of God the end of the age for material religion, and if Jesus said his kingdom is not of this world, and people are looking for Heavenly destination, I don’t believe people who believe we will go to a new earth. John...

    The folly of Preterism

    I don’t believe there is a need for a new earth today. You can quote scripture all day? But that doesn’t necessarily mean anything. Listen though you are obviously correct in your own mind and viewpoint. You need to be convinced in your own mind, like myself about these things. Idk what God...

    A FEW QUICK COMMENTS ON FULFILLMENT ESCHATOLOGY

    I am well acquainted with the scripture @rwb. People may find me defacing the lord or something but that is far from the truth. The bible is the only thing helps a person grow in faith. Human beings don’t help with faith unless they are encouraging others in the Lord and they are encouraged by...

    A FEW QUICK COMMENTS ON FULFILLMENT ESCHATOLOGY

    No doubt about that. That doesn’t negate the audience of the time though. So many spiritual benefits to the believer who has fellowship with the Father and the son, and spend time in the word of God, friend. Amen. And all I’m doing is sharing information; people may reject or consider. There...

    The folly of Preterism

    The only thing left really is revelation 21-22 which come in death: a picture and type of the afterlife. So remember that my friends, I don’t believe that revelation 21-22 comes until death, and there is wisdom founded within the chapters. The ending of chapter 22 was a reminder of the...

    The folly of Preterism

    just to let everyone know I don’t even know what all the pretrist people believe. I just believe that all things have been fulfilled by Christ as promised by faith.

    The folly of Preterism

    All human beings are evil by nature. No one can really say otherwise. So therefore of course evil continues to exist and so does darkness even when Satan has been done away with.
