Where does it say that Christ is omniscient? Only God is Omnicient…..only God is Almighty.
Christ in the judgement is not operating as deity?
Jesus already told us that “few” would be found on the cramped and narrow road to life. (Matthew 7:13-14)
Yes, the "few find it" puzzle.
The claim that God makes sport of our eternal destiny.
God has given all mankind enough time to make up their mind about who he is and what he requires of us humans.
Countless billions have gone into the afterlife with no knowledge about Christ.

Christ in the judgement is not operating as deity?
No…he is appointed as judge by his Father…..”all authority” had to be “given” to the son (Matt 28:18)…..if he was God, no one would need to give him any authority….he would already have it.
Yes, the "few find it" puzzle.
What is puzzling about it? Seems quite simple to me. “Sheep and goats” that’s all there is, and all of us alive at the judgment will find ourselves in either one category or the other….there is no fence to sit on while we make up our mind. Jesus already knows what we are when the judgment time comes….we have already told him by our choices and actions whether we belong to him….or only think we do. (Matt 7:21-23)
The claim that God makes sport of our eternal destiny.
“Sport”? Since when is meting out justice, “sport”? We determine our own destiny by the choices we make….God does not make those choices for us. It’s all our own work. If we dip out at the judgment, it’s because Christ has “never“ known us as one of his own.
Countless billions have gone into the afterlife with no knowledge about Christ.
Countless billions have not gone anywhere but the grave. There is no afterlife as Christendom teaches it. There is just life or death. The Bible does not support the existence of an immortal soul. Souls are very “mortal”. Souls that sin…die. (Ezekiel 18:4) Adam was told that he would simply return to the dust…no heaven or hell was ever mentioned.
Those in their graves are not resurrected until Christ’s return….and even then, the elect are the ones who are raised “first”.….

“But now Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep in death. 21 For since death came through a man, resurrection of the dead also comes through a man. 22 For just as in Adam all are dying, so also in the Christ all will be made alive. 23 But each one in his own proper order: Christ the firstfruits, afterward those who belong to the Christ during his presence.” (1 Cor 15:20-23)

The general resurrection of the dead does not take place until the thousand year reign of Christ. There is an order in the resurrection….Christ died and was resurrected first, then “those who belong to Christ” (his elect) when he returns to judge the world.

1 Thess 4:13-16…
“Moreover, brothers, we do not want you to be ignorant about those who are sleeping in death, so that you may not sorrow as the rest do who have no hope. 14 For if we have faith that Jesus died and rose again, so too God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep in death through Jesus. 15 For this is what we tell you by Jehovah’s word, that we the living who survive to the presence of the Lord will in no way precede those who have fallen asleep in death; 16 because the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a commanding call, with an archangel’s voice and with God’s trumpet, and those who are dead in union with Christ will rise first.”

Those in their graves have paid sin’s wages, and as many of them have been “unrighteous” before their death, never coming to know Christ or his Father, Jesus will raise them up and give them opportunity to learn the truth and abide by God’s laws. Theirs will be a resurrection of judgment. (John 5:28-29) He will not judge those who never knew Jesus or had anything to do with Israel’s God. That judgment comes at the end of the 1000 years.

God’s justice is perfect…..ours is not.

Certainly wasn't a picture of the judgment (resurrection of the dead) after the Millennium.

Such a dark view of God.
- No dark but realistic!
- Think about the flood and about those who survived!
- Think about the Israelites who died in the desert and those who survived and got into the promised land!
- Think about all who died with the two destructions of Jerusalem!
- And think about how they died!
- Think about what is coming!
- Think about what is coming after the 1,000 years!
- Maybe you should read Revelation 20!
- Their number is like the sand of the seashore!
- Or maybe it is too difficult to understand!

There is no darkness in justice. Yahweh is not a sentimental God, but a merciful one. Mercy is extended when he deems it is deserved. The people of Noah’s day ‘missed the boat’......because they failed to heed Noah’s warning and change their ways......the majority of people alive at the judgment of the “sheep and the goats”, are going to find themselves bleating ‘goat like’, rather than ‘sheep like’. (Matt 7:21-23) This will be shocking to them as they try to offer their excuses......but Jesus says “I never knew you”....”NEVER” means “not ever”....so people will have been fooling themselves all their lives....just like the ones who perished at the flood. Won’t it be interesting to see what Jesus has to say to each one of us......?
- Definitely!

- I am interested in the faithful servants of Yah.weh!
- Why is it so simple for them to serve Yah.weh and so difficult for the others?

Who do you worship? It is obviously not the God described in the Bible, who sent a global deluge to eradicate demonically sired human monstrosities who led mankind into a moral morass, but saved the only righteous people in existence.....the God who wanted to exterminate the unfaithful, disobedient Israelites in the wilderness because they couldn’t simply do as they were told....but who led the obedient ones into the Promised Land.

In just those two examples, God created illustrative “types” to show us what would happen in the future.
Matthew 24:37-39...
“For just as the days of Noah were, so the presence of the Son of man will be. 38 For as they were in those days before the Flood, eating and drinking, men marrying and women being given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, 39 and they took no note until the Flood came and swept them all away, so the presence of the Son of man will be.”

And here we are again...the world has completely lost any sense of morality, which is what basically separates humans from unreasoning animals.
James 3:13-16...
“Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him by his fine conduct demonstrate works performed with a mildness that comes from wisdom. 14 But if you have bitter jealousy and contentiousness in your hearts, do not be bragging and lying against the truth. 15 This is not the wisdom that comes down from above; it is earthly, animalistic, demonic. 16 For wherever there are jealousy and contentiousness, there will also be disorder and every vile thing.“

The Israelites who were wandering in the wilderness for 40 years, were there because of the wicked and disobedient among them.....what is the illustration?
Instead of going directly to the land that God had gifted to them, he waited until that disobedient generation of complainers had passed away to bring a new generation into that “land flowing with milk and honey”.....but the righteous ones like Moses, Joshua and Caleb had to endure the hardships along with the “stiff necked” Israelites. Even Moses lost the right of entry because he failed to give credit to his God out of anger at their continual complaining. Joshua and Caleb were the only ones released from slavery in Egypt, to actually make it into the promised land.....

What was it that God required of Noah and Israel in both instances? The very same thing he required in the garden of Eden.....OBEDIENCE. That’s it. Only those who can worship the true God in obedience to all that he asks, will enter the “Promised Land” to come......that land is the paradise on earth that Yahweh originally intended to be mankind’s permanent home.

Adam lost it for all his children who have been enslaved to sin and death for thousands of years.....but God sent his son to redeem Adam’s children.....to offer his perfect life in exchange for theirs......this is where we are now in the big scheme of things. We have wandered through a wilderness of trouble and hardship on the way to our “Promised Land”......and we are right on the brink of entering it......but according to Jesus “few” will actually make it because of being sidetracked by the devil and the temptations he is offering to the fallen flesh. He has no new tricks because the old ones work so well. Materialism, immorality and greed are the very foundations of satan’s world. Israel also fell to false worship, so that is why we see so many entrapped in the worship of false gods even today.
His biggest success is Christendom...a counterfeit form of Christianity that Jesus will never recognise. (Matt 7:21-23)

Satan’s whole agenda is to separate people from Yahweh by tempting them to do what God condemns. The devil cannot separate us from God...only we can do that of our own volition.
We cannot turn God into someone like ourselves because that makes him more acceptable to us.....he is who he is, and we must worship him on his terms, not ours.
He has proven himself by being true to himself, and showing humankind what his blessings will mean in the future for all those who truly love him and who understand why he has done things this way. It was all for our eternal benefit. No one will ever derail his purpose again.

Not sure what that means.
- You look at what you call a tyrant!
- Have you ever looked at human beings?
- Yah.weh is the owner of the earth!
- Now what are the human beings doing?
- They are destroying it!
- And if Yah.weh wouldn't stop them, they would eradicate life on earth!
- Is that what you call a tyrant?

Okay.

Yes.
- Yah.weh is the owner of the earth!
What happened to looking at human beings?
- Now what are the human beings doing?
Trying to find their way through a confused mess of ideologies.
- They are desteroying it!
Destroying the earth?
- Is that what you call a tyrant?
Very strange line of reasoning.

Certainly wasn't a picture of the judgment (resurrection of the dead) after the Millennium.
That was a parable, not a true story.....taken literally, it is ridiculous. Are heaven and hell within speaking distance to one another? Can a drop of water on someone’s finger really cool a man’s tongue in a burning fire?
This is the story about the Pharisees, represented by the rich man, and a beggar named Lazarus (a common name in those days) representing “the lost sheep” to whom Jesus was sent. They longed for the crumbs falling from the rich man’s table but were never fed. The Pharisees did not consider them worthy of their time and attention. Jesus showed them that every sheep is precious to his Father.

The two changed places when Jesus preached to them. The “bosom of Abraham” was a position of favor with God.....the Pharisees lost it....and the beggar gained it by accepting Jesus as Messiah. Parables are not true stories, but they can depict real situations.

I choose to believe God's Word!!!And you????===
Romans 11:25-32===
25Lest you be wise in your own sight, I do not want you to be unaware of this mystery, brothers: a partial hardening has come upon Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. 26And in this way all Israel will be saved, as it is written.
Ezekiel 39==
Israel =will know that I am the Lord their God, for though I sent them into exile among the nations, I will gather them to their own land, not leaving any behind. 29 I will no longer hide my face from them, for I will pour out my Spirit on the people of Israel, declares the Sovereign Lord.”
Yes!! He is talking about Gal 3:28-29
28 There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise. All Israel are all His people.

The Jews were supposed to demonstrate the holiness of the Lord and worship for Him to the world--they kept all of it and did not proseltyze, Jesus told them in Matthew that another vinegrower would do what they were to do.

"21:33-41 “Listen to another parable. There was a landowner who planted a vineyard and put a wall around it and dug a wine press in it, and built a tower, and rented it out to vine-growers and went on a journey. When the harvest time approached, he sent his slaves to the vine-growers to receive his produce. The vine-growers took his slaves and beat one, and killed another, and stoned a third. Again he sent another group of slaves larger than the first; and they did the same thing to them. But afterward he sent his son to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’ But when the vine-growers saw the son, they said among themselves, ‘This is the heir; come, let us kill him and seize his inheritance.’ They took him, and threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. Therefore when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those vine-growers?” They said to Him, “He will bring those wretches to a wretched end, and will rent out the vineyard to other vine-growers who will pay him the proceeds at the proper seasons.”


and this part verse 42 and 43
"Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the scriptures: 'The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; this was the Lord's doing, and it is amazing in our eyes'? “Therefore I tell you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people that produces its fruits.

43) Cold or Hot Anger?

  • In Judges 3, Yah.weh allows nations to stay in Canaan!
  • It was a way to test Israel!
  • Would they obey Yah.weh’s commandments he had given to their fathers through Moses!
  • Because of their constant unfaithfulness, they were put to the test!
  • As a consequence, they took their daughters as wives and their own daughters to their sons and thus they served their gods!
  • And the situation got worse and worse!
  • Today we can see exactly the same situation!
  • Nothing has changed and won’t change!
  • Thus Yah.weh will clean the earth!
  • Time will come when only those who obey Yah.weh’s commandments will get the promised land!
  • And only them!
  • SIMPLE!
  • It doesn’t matter if men don’t want to understand!
  • Yah.weh is the boss, not man!
  • That is divine balance, divine justice!
  • No human justice which is a joke!
