    God gave The Movable Tabernacle, the Temple, the implements, the rites, rituals, holy days, and other observances are inspired and prophetic in nature for the purpose of being understood otherwise there would be no sense in giving them. Now whether the Hebrews understood them or whether we...

    If I understand you correctly Frank, you mean through prayer and consciousness?

    Where in the world are you?

    I'm in the jungle. The rainforest of Northern Australia. There are Cassowaries, Crocodiles and brilliantly blue butterflies.

    And so also through the scriptures God uses words and names of his creation to convey messages of reproof, encouragement and prophecy and bids us to have hears to hear.

    The context of 1 Thess 5:1

    Spiritual fulfilment does not mean an absence of the physical. It means the fulfilment has a deeper seat with its application far more pertinent. For example, when Jesus said unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood you have no life in you. It would be primitive and...

    The context of 1 Thess 5:1

    It is in process of being fulfilled in the heart of those whose focus is man. Man becomes the ultimate authority, remember 666? man man man and his religious inventions. Jesus is eclipsed by man. His sacrifice is eclipsed by man, in fact Gods whole purpose is subverted. The whole work of Jesus...

    The context of 1 Thess 5:1

    If sense is trying to be made of the Jewish national situation by cobbling texts together so that the unfolding events in Palestine have the meaning that God is bringing 'his people' together for the temporal earthly vindication of his purposes I think the barking will wear throats out because...

    The context of 1 Thess 5:1

    'It's a thought-provoking question'. Hidden, please let it provoke your thought. God's people, his chosen or The Church are one and the same wether in the OT or NT. God's people are defined by those that trust and have faith in him throughout history, eg, Noah, Moses, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob...

    The context of 1 Thess 5:1

    Perhaps I have taken too much for granted by not giving my question more detail. You said in post No.23 'when the abomination that causes desolation will be set up, when the Antichrist will attempt to exterminate the Jews,' My question is, why would the Antichrist want to exterminate the Jews...

    The context of 1 Thess 5:1

    Why would the Jews want to be exterminated? (I'm assuming you're meaning the literal nation of Israel) they are already anti Christ. Do you expect a national shift?

    The context of 1 Thess 5:1

    Have you noticed that the 'massive idol' is well in process of being set up? without geographical boundaries I might add.

    The Righteousness of Christ is not a Coat that Covers Sin.

    We have no excuse. There can only be an unwillingness because of ones love for sin or our weakness yet even in that weakness God offers us strength. For myself I have learn't that God's strength cannot be bottled. Its like air, I need to take each breath as it's needed one breath at a time. We...

    I was up at 5 am this morning on the balcony looking out at the quiet blackness of the forest. The wild things had not started to stir yet. Sipping a hot lemon and ginger tea reading your beautifully expressed poems the tears silently trickled down my cheeks as your stories come to life. An...

    The body of Moses hid?

    This is how I've figured it. Some of it from reading the material of others and some from my own thoughts re Moses. Moses was resurrected even though it doesn't specifically say so (a special resurrection) but I deduce this from the account of Moses and Elijah appearing and talking with Jesus on...
