Labor To Enter Into What Rest?

[Dave L]

I do a lot better when I don't take you seriously, Dave, so from now on I think I'm just gonna respond with things like this:

Or maybe this:

See, I can get down on anybody's level eventually, LoL.

You cannot take me seriously without revamping your entire end times understanding.

 

[Hidden In Him]

You cannot take me seriously without revamping your entire end times understanding.

If this was not your intention then you have yourself to blame, but I'm slowly coming to the revelation that I should never take a single thing you say seriously. It's all a mirage, LoL.

Those familiar with orthodox Christian theology have no problem with me.

Thanks for the comments. Jesus refuted the pharisaic notion of a physical kingdom throughout the gospels. That is part of why they killed him. I can produce those scriptures on demand. But the physical kingdom buffs cannot support their claims with anything but the highly symbolic Revelation 20 with pharisaic concepts read into it.

Shame is,Jesus wants to clothe in new raiment, but everyone seems to be very comfortable in their own robes

I don’t know what orthodox theology is, but I don’t have a problem with you

If you know the truth, why not speak it instead of using diversion?

 

[bbyrd009]

Do what!!
How come...

well I guess I'm misunderstanding @ "there is no millenial reign of Christ on this earth," which is not true imo

best one yet Dave
lol
no offense but you better get used to it ok

 

[Episkopos]

Jesus said his kingdom is here now and comes without observation. And only the born again can see or enter it.

The kingdom of God is a spiritual place....NOT of this world. The Millennial rule is distinct from a spiritual place....which is in Zion which is above. THAT kingdom does not come down from heaven until the next age. But there is a sample state first....when Jesus comes to earth to teach His saints how to rule.

There is always a forerunner before the fulness comes in. Even water baptism is but a sample...a shadow...of what one is agreeing to that will take place in the believer's life.

"Tomorrow People"

Hebrews 4:7 Lexicon: He again fixes a certain day, "Today," saying through David after so long a time just as has been said before, "TODAY IF YOU HEAR HIS VOICE, DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEARTS."

Where's the "sample" proof in scripture?

"foretaste" I guess
not that it will help anyone already running

Galatians 4:25-26 KJV
[25] For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children. [26] But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.

labor

Maybe ‘travail’ brought on by God. ‘labour’ pains of His doing and not our own labour(ing)?
