In common terms for understanding, the two witnesses are "the Jew first then the Greek", which are made manifest in Israel and the gentiles, in the flesh and then in the spirit. Or as John explains, their are "three" in heaven that are [one], and "three" on earth that are [one]...which makes...

Your Original Post title doesn't exactly match up with your opening post and description. As for interpretation, they are not to be of men, but of God by His gifts of the spirit given to men. His words are spirit. The scriptures are not a literary work, and thus must be spiritually discerned.

Yes, the dead and the living crucified with Christ.

It's all connected. The outer court is akin even to outer darkness. But in this case it refers to those things which the temple represents, to the body made manifest in the creation; which then is divided in the midst (42/42, 3.5/3.5, the dead in Christ/the living in Christ) between the first...

Matthew 24:23 “Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe it.

Yes, all fall short of the glory of God since the fall, so that passage simply confirms that the damage is done and it is now a matter of recovering what was lost. The passage denotes the times.

Made on the sixth day, 6 is the number of man. 6. The first was Adam. 6. The stature of Goliath, the enemy of Israel God's chosen, defeated by David, was six cubits. 6. The son of David appointed to build a house for the Lord God was Solomon, the greatest of worldly kings. Jesus being...

I would not say that such a limit has been placed on those who are in Christ. Hebrews 1 "God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, 2 has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also...

Yes, and "protect" is the better understanding, "for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust."

Hear how, or from who? The words are not the standard of what each is used to mean, but it is the Spirit; and if I hear from the Spirit, why should I hear from another? No, I am not willing.

And it is always the ones who's hearts are far from God, who claim context then break context speaking out of both sides of their mouth. The same killed the prophets.

So? The actual record is written here for anyone to see the truth. Post #214, 237, 273, and then 310. Nonetheless, "forever" is used in the scriptures to describe both God the Father and Jesus the Son. Therefore, both are "eternal."

That is a very loving and cool thing to say!

Are you sure you don't want to accuse me of having a demon too? Typical.

No...I did both, quoted both the dictionary and the scriptures. And you mock both.

That is certainly easy and of course popular to summarize it that way. But with God there is no beginning or end, no "in advance" scenario. As hard as it is to imagine, the timeline of the world is simply a story line of revelations, not of what was, and what will be, but rather of what "is."...

John 17:5 "And now, O Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was."

1. Look, if you can't get the analogy within the context of the analogy...that is your problem. But the point is, beyond the natural realm, there is another ultimately greater spiritual realm. And a person who is blind to it ought to listen to offers of help by analogy. Your choice. Your loss...

This is all the result of God Himself confounding "all language" (even the scriptures) at Babel, an order that has not been rescinded. Thus, the scriptures must be "spiritually discerned" 1 Corinthians 2:14...which is the reason for such discrepancies, and the plan.

Well, no, in the analogy I gave you...we are not "claiming we can communicate with fish", we are fish. We returned to the sea, so to speak. So: Does not apply. We communicate with each other just fine. Granted, we don't all agree with each other, but that is a different matter. Oh...
