@Matthias

Have you considered what John tells us in Revelation 12 and how the 1,000 years of imprisonment of Satan in Rev 20:1-3 fits into John's narrative in Chapter 12?

Have you considered what Isaiah wrote in Isaiah 24:21-23 and how it dovetails into Jesus' parables of the Talents and the Minas?

Have you considered Ezekiel 34 in God's foretelling of His gathering of Israel to Himself and His promise that He would remove the evil beasts, including Satan, from the face of the earth so that Israel will enjoy a long covenantal period of peace while they live in God's fertile field where He will scatter His Seeds for Israel to take Root in our near future.

Have you considered how much damage a small flaw in our understanding can actually distort our understanding of God's Grace towards mankind?

Shalom

Do you really know what God has called me to do?

I don’t mean to embarrass you but that post wasn’t about you. It’s about me. I’m doing what the God of Israel has called me to do.

Spread the saving Gospel Gal 1:11-12, 1 Cor 15:1-4, Eph 1:13 as taught by Christ that applies to how believers today are saved.

You know when Jesus returns as you've all been believing so long, you'll have to hand over everything to him.

What chapter and verse do you see that in?

I never saw where God says in His Word when He returns we will all be homeless and have no possessions out wandering the streets with nothing.


Of course I'd want something like Jesus to return, and now. I have no problem with getting in-line with a creator if or when it turns up. I'm not afraid of being corrected and set straight from something that actually knows what's it's doing.

Agnostics have rejected the Lord by their own admission so they will all sadly be in hell

The calvinists won't be doing that

If a calvinist went out to wirness he's be telling everyone that God decided they would all go to hell because it's God's will that most people go to hell

1 Tim 2:4 & 2 Pet 3:9 must be missing in their Bibles.

Sorry, I did not understand what you were trying to convey. A little bit more of an explanation would have helped me greatly. Before the pic you could have said, "I think that the pic below applies to me and maybe others."

These verses are in the Bibles the calvinists use, but they choose to ignore them. They ignore a lot of God's Word and twist scripture.

1 Timothy 2:4 states, "Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth."

2 Peter 3:9 states, "The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance."

Are you ready for his return …

That’s a very good question, albeit an unusual one for an unbeliever to pose.

Billions of people aren’t ready. Even so, maranatha.

But, they're all responsible having had opportunity to accept the Lord

Titus 2:11
For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men

Then they will have to bear the consequences for their decision to reject the Messiah and the one who sent him.

Meanwhile, preaching the gospel and longing for the Messiah to return goes on unabated.
