That isn’t a doctrine it’s an opinion concerning whether God was using a common term to show His relationship to this particular chosen people.
Yes, we have many of God’s own verbatim words.
We have I am the Way….what? The way to San Jose”?
Eat my body and drink my blood.
From the beginning...
I asked for examples for what you said here….
the difference is that GOD gave Moses the Laws (Commandments)of the land. The was a preceptive command, where He wanted them (commanded)to follow but allowed them to choose whether to follow them or Not..
Decretive will is where God issues a...
I’m wondering if there have ever been times when some persecution was not going on. That’s why it makes sense for verses 4-15 to apply to all believers during any times of persecution for the faith.
Verses 16-31 is clearly speaking of the Jews (Jacob’s troubles), and the Second coming with...
Funny, I was thinking the exact same thing about you.
What doctrine would that be? How about we just admit we have a difference of opinion?
The text must always be taken in context, and a touch of common sense doesn’t hurt when reading the Bible. As I understand marriage, it’s between a man...
Matt. 5:
17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. 18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.u
I know you’ll get some disagreement on...
I’m beginning to think we may see the Antichrist come into power first. For a long time, I didn’t. I was always way pre-trib. Now I think we’ll see more of the tribulation than I thought.
Speaking of THAT day (our gathering together with Him), will not come until that man of sin is...
It wasn’t, but I appreciate your responding.
It looks like we see Jacob’s troubles starting in verse 16. Let them which be in Judea flee into the mountains. This occurs after they reject the Antichrist. This leads up to great tribulation. They won’t be eating and drinking marrying and given...
@Right Divider I know you’re ignoring me, but this is an important question. Are you saying this is at the Lord’s second coming? The “ones taken“ in Matthew 24 are taken to judgement?
“(24:39) And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of...
They’ve always rejected their Messiah, and He’s always taken them back.
And, they are way ahead of the rest of this heathen world. Even America is filled with violence and hatred, allying good evil and evil good. As a whole, the entire world has rejected God, which is why Judgement is on the...
I’ve been around this text for a great many years, hearing many versions, including views here on TOL. Forgive me if I dared to share what the Lord has been showing me of late. At least I’m not so stuck on my own ideas that I claim the Israel today is an imposter. 🤣
Only the enemy would be suggesting the Israel of today is not God’s chosen nation.
Do people even read or believe the Bible? It’s in prophecies. Pray for understanding as you read them. Share the Gospel, they are ripe for the hearing.
Of course the enemy is hard at work deceiving even the...
No, that makes no sense. That Isn’t what happened. The flood didn’t take one and leave the other. The flood took all those not taken up in the ark.
No, who is Jesus talking to? Believers. He reminds them He is their Lord, and tells them to watch. They cannot watch if He’s referring to...
They‘ve always denied Jesus is Lord. That, alone should tell you. Yes, they are called back to the land, and they are currently dry bones.
Paul talking about the rapture, and what we are to watch for?
And you don’t think Paul is relying on any of the prophets regarding Israel? Other than...
Jesus claimed to be a door, and God is described as having wings.
John 10:7. Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
Psalms 91:4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and...
indeed, and the fruit of the Spirit produce the best works of all.
Gal. 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
