you said yes to "lets go back to questions to you in my post #62...Do You believe Human Beings will be required to render Blood Animal Sacrifices"
I would tread carefully with statements like this, as it appears blasphemous. This would be belittling the sacrifice of Christ. Christ died once for all, to put away sin, and secure eternal redemption. Any animal sacrifice to God is pointless, if not an abomination now after the sacrifice of his Son. Go and learn what this means friend, God desires mercy not sacrifice.
Hebrews 9:12
he entered
once for all into the Holy Place, taking
not the blood of goats and calves but his own blood,
thus securing an eternal redemption.
Hebrews 9:24-26
For Christ has entered, not into a sanctuary made with hands, a copy of the true one, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf. 25 Nor was it to offer himself repeatedly, as the high priest enters the Holy Place yearly with blood not his own; 26 for then he would have had to suffer repeatedly since the foundation of the world.
But as it is, he has appeared once for all at the end of the age to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.
Hebrews 10:4-7
For it is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins. Consequently, when Christ came into the world, he said, “
Sacrifices and offerings thou hast not desired, but a body hast thou prepared for me; in
burnt offerings and sin offerings thou hast taken no pleasure. Then I said, ‘Lo, I have come to do thy will, O God,’as it is written of me in the roll of the book.”
Hebrews 10:9-10
then he added, “Lo, I have come to do thy will.” He abolishes the first in order to establish the second. 10
And by that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
No, this is the restoration of Israel. And, the law that goes forth from Zion applies to ALL the nations, something the Mosaic Law NEVER did. And, it teaches war is to NEVER be used, and it will produce peace ... something the Mosaic Law NEVER did. The Mosaic Law was from Sinai ... NOT from Zion.
There is only the law of Christ: to love God above all else and to love your neighbor as yourself, which is written on our hearts and minds.
Hebrews 10:15-18
And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after saying,
16 “This is the covenant that I will make with them
after those days, says the Lord:I will put my laws on their hearts, and write them on their minds,” then he adds, “I will remember their sins and their misdeeds no more.”
Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin.
If animal sacrifices are required in the future, Christ's sacrifice was not enough, there is no longer forgiveness of sins, and we have no hope.
Your conclusion doesn't agree with the prophecies. They teach Israel would be punished, and scattered among the nations, and then in "the last days" would be restored. The apostles were still hoping for that restoration;
Acts 1:6-7 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? 7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
Rom 11:22-27 Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off. 23 And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be graffed in: for God is able to graff them in again. 24 For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert graffed contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be graffed into their own olive tree?
25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in. 26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: 27 For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.
Matt 19:28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
All of the Jews were waiting for the messiah to come and restore Israel back to a world power. I'm not the least bit surprised they asked this. In the great commission (Matthew 28:19) Jesus tells the disciples to go and make disciples of ALL NATIONS. What is funny, is that Peter did not know he could associate with gentiles until God told him he could, Acts 10:28, which took place much later than the great commission. The point is, is that the disciples did not fully understand the kingdom during the time of Jesus' life and beginning of Acts. When you quote Acts 1:6-7, they didn't know what they were even asking.
So from quoting these verses and through your interpretation of them, here is what I am gathering that you believe:
1.) Israel will be a kingdom again with a 3rd temple and a new law (like the OT law but not really) will be established requiring animal sacrifices. All nations will worship Jesus/God in this way.
2.) The Deliverer has
not come out of Zion yet to take away sins, because according to you and the verse you quoted above, this will happen at the end of the kosmos (world).
3.) Christ is
not sitting on throne of glory yet, because according to you and the scripture you quoted, this will happen at the end of the kosmos (world).
