Good grief! And there you have the linguistic argument instead of the proper "spiritual discernment" of the matter. Good grief - I say!

Preparing for world wide whatever, is not unlike preparing for winter or good health. But whether we do well or fail completely, our life and salvation are in God's hands. The difference may simply be whether or not we prolong the time to serve God in bringing more people to the saving...

Specifically, this is the formal introduction of the Holy Spirit, and the announcement of the fulfillment of God pouring out His spirit upon all flesh as foretold by Joel the prophet...which is His judgement.

:) We're like bankers - it's not our money.

Well...not "abolished"... but, He paid it all.

Sin is rampant in the world! But He does not come again to save the world from sin - for He has finished it already. You misunderstand. As He said, "the world will see me no more." When He said "He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. And whoever lives and believes in Me shall...

More confessions from those who have not seen. :( You quote the verses just as those who crucified Christ, and still you do not see that "the world is passing away" and "the earth is burned up", but "the kingdom of heaven (which is spiritual, just as "God is spirit") shall never pass...

Your rationale and justification for your claims, is what you [don't] see in the world. But the Christ was clear, and you contradict Him: "The kingdom of God does not come with observation." Beware! Those who have [not] seen, can only tell you what they have not seen. :(

And that is the crux of the problem. Here we have those who have not seen and experienced all that has been promised arguing with those who have, even after Jesus has long ago said that the kingdom of God had come when He first came and then said He would come again "quickly" to those who heard...

Welcome! This is when I wish we could do more than type a few words of greeting, but shake hands and show some smiles filled with the love of Christ. Enjoy - and know that Jesus is never more than a flash of quick thought or a prayer away. God is good - hope to see you around as well!

Hi Riekertlily, and welcome! The world is not really about what "works." It's about us being us. History is His story (God's). In other words, when God says "I am", He has revealed who He is. But for us, who we are is still being revealed over the course of our lives. That is why it is...

Hahaha! I can't imagine what that link was even about - I almost never watch links people post, myself. What I regret not saying enough...is that for all the time we all spend here, it could probably never work, and I am not sure I would even want it to, but it would be nice to shake some of...

Keep blabbing, your criticisms give you away.

The context of the book of Revelation is key. "What you have seen, what is, and what is to take place after this" encompasses, past, present (at that time), and future...in other word, it includes - everything. As such, the language that was used did not specifically describe "what you have...

Hillary?

Why do you criticize me when it is you who has not done your homework? Ephesians 5:13 But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. Mark 4:11 KJV Mark 4:11 And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the...

You say the "present" and the "future", and for your sake, so does His word, which is in parable. But it also says, "before the foundation of the world", and for this reason, the Lord qualifies, "If you can receive it." Thus, there is no need for us to squabble, but to receive all things "each...

Very well. Such is the word of the Lord. Because we both revere the word, I will leave you with this: You say, "In the [end]", but I will say just as the scriptures say: "In the [beginning] was the Word." If you can receive it, this reveals the true order of things just as I have been telling...

No, I do not "think" what I have written, but know it. But you are thinking as men think. There is the resurrection of the flesh by Christ, but it is not to be confused with the resurrection of men...except in miracles. His resurrection was just as that of Lazarus, which was to show that Jesus...

You are reading the words as men read, who are both of God and of the devil. Thus, they must be discerned spiritually, which you have not done, but have made the letter your law, rather than the spirit. The correct answers to your questions, are: The Lord does not return "visibly", but as it...
