    A FEW QUICK COMMENTS ON FULFILLMENT ESCHATOLOGY

    How can it not be when its faith in what jesus had said? How is that not believing what the biblical jesus said? That is okay not everyone is well equipped all the time, and not everyone knows everything, and maybe I’m wrong. But if you die before you see Jesus comes, again supposedly will you...

    What is "Parousia"?

    No man can tame the tongue, anyway. Your remarks are condescending, because you continue to address problems you see about what I say. Strange. Yes the Bible is a gift; given to us. The Bible was never written to us, like the actual audience. The Bible was founded over time collected from...

    A FEW QUICK COMMENTS ON FULFILLMENT ESCHATOLOGY

    And yes Jesus would be a liar if he promised to come to that generation and never show up. That is exactly what happens in the Gospel. You have Jesus who was sent from God in flesh claiming returning, and his apostles proclaiming the same. People tell me he is still coming, but why? Why...

    A FEW QUICK COMMENTS ON FULFILLMENT ESCHATOLOGY

    I don’t doubt in Jesus returning at all, I believe it happened already by faith friend. It perhaps happens for people at their death too, everyone is gonna come face Jesus. People that continue to believe he is coming are those who perhaps have the story of the Gospel wrong, @rwb.

    What is "Parousia"?

    Why didn’t you say so? If that is the case does that mean revelation has been completed too? Cause at first you just suggested the Bible was written to all people who are believers today. Believe me the Bible was never written with me or you in mind when they wrote; they wrote about their time...

    What is "Parousia"?

    Not when I’m being honest and upfront with you, about the audience. I’m not worried about being condemn by people. The Holy Spirit can condemn me, or God by the Holy Spirit.

    They suffered yet you don’t care.

    What is "Parousia"?

    No one said that the Bible is not profitable for spiritual maturity in Christ Jesus. The problem is when people try to justify stances without considering the audience. That is why I continue to be adamant about the audience of the time. Because they were killed for their faith yet people...

    What is "Parousia"?

    that is not justifiable. “Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus: grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.” ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭1‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭KJV‬‬...

    What is "Parousia"?

    That is what sometimes saved is referred to by Jesus and the apostles, in which those who looked towards Jesus would be saved from that wrath of God which was going to fall upon the nation of Jerusalem. People in Jerusalem there were some whom were saved and those whom were destroyed along with...

    What is "Parousia"?

    Yes, amen amigo. It is good to serve God and to love him. To have relationship and ask him to help you by the spirit, and have fellowship with the Father, and the Son by a through reading the bible. To grow in knowledge of God and who he had sent which is eternal life is a supplemental effort...

    What is "Parousia"?

    Yes Jesus died and suffered also for the sheep of Israel to, the bride of Christ which would be the first ones to go on to be with God through the resurrection, in which those who were redeemed by seeing the Lord having come were changed in the twinkling of the eye, @David in NJ. This is why I...

    What is "Parousia"?

    The wrath contextually would befall on Jerusalem. Now people today are at free from the bondage of sin and death which they were delivered from as well and lived in faith and by the spirit. God proclaimed he would end up divorcing Israel, and when Jesus came he was setting up the bride of Christ...

    What is "Parousia"?

    Can you answer me this question Amigo. Who said it was ever wrong to believe what Jesus said to a people at that time, about coming back, and believing he came back; along with his victory?

    What is "Parousia"?

    Mankind has remained the same since the ark had landed. Noah was still a sinner, and evil continued onward. Jesus was the one who had reconciled mankind back to the Father, by the Father working in and through him. 2 Corinthians 5:18 And all of this is a gift from God, who brought us back to...

    What is "Parousia"?

    Sure it is. Looking at Old Testament scripture and comparing it to the new and considering what all has been written is important to rightly dividing the word of truth, asking God to help you by the spirit. If you suggest otherwise one may not really be considering the Bible as a whole. I do...

    What is "Parousia"?

    Amigo, Mine too friend, I desire good for all as well and for God to protect those who may be out there from harm not just me but others amigo, and to help those in the darkness, and to help by the spirit. Just sharing information about what the Bible does indicate for anyone who would like to...

    What is "Parousia"?

    That was the warning of the great and coming dreadful day of the LORD, which the Jewish people shared among others who had taught in the temple, and synagogues. The wrath of God would come upon Jerusalem, what would the reason be for this to be? Because of the idolatry, and because of the...

    A FEW QUICK COMMENTS ON FULFILLMENT ESCHATOLOGY

    I don’t understand why people disregard the fact is Jesus was telling people they would see him return… But people keep side stepping this because there is no record in history saying “jesus came”, I believe by faith he did so while people may expect him to; I have no intention of following...
