    3 key questions concerning eschatology

    The body believers receive when they are resurrected and changed to immortal and incorruptible body is PHYSICAL and indwelt by our eternal spirit that God will bring with Jesus when He returns the second time. 1 Thessalonians 4:14 (KJV) For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even...

    The 24 elders in heaven, in Revelation 4:4

    Sons of God or children of God can indeed be both male and female. But in the Genesis account I have to agree sons of God is speaking of men reproducing offspring by having relations with women. When you carefully read we find this lamentation is not against Satan exactly, but against the...

    The 24 elders in heaven, in Revelation 4:4

    Reading the book of Revelation in chronological order causes complete confusion of the book. Revelation 12:2-11 (KJV) And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads...

    3 key questions concerning eschatology

    For our spirit to be present with the Lord while physically alive means we have gone from being dead in our natural spirit to alive through His Spirit in our spirit because we have been born again. It means we have had part in the first resurrection that is the resurrection of Christ. And...

    Why Justification is by Faith Alone

    I believe the following passage was given for those who believe obedience to the Mosaic Law is the way to worship Christ. John 4:22-24 (KJV) Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall...

    Why Justification is by Faith Alone

    Once more Gentiles are not bound by the Mosaic Law!!! Christ NEVER taught His Gentile followers to obey the Mosaic Law!!! You are bringing false doctrine.

    The 24 elders in heaven, in Revelation 4:4

    Yes, Gabriel is called a man, and the Bible says he is an angel of God. Daniel says in his vision he saw someone "as the appearance of man." There are numerous examples of angels taking on the appearance of humans. Daniel 8:15 (KJV) And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel, had seen the...

    Why Justification is by Faith Alone

    Not only did the apostles and elders NOT teach Gentiles must be obedient to the Mosaic Law, when a dispute about circumcision arose the apostles and elders of the Church assured them that no such commandment had come, and that Gentiles would do well if they abstain from meats offered to idols...

    Why Justification is by Faith Alone

    Jesus did not teach the Gentiles! None of His apostles/disciples instructed Gentiles to choose whether or not they wanted to obey the Mosaic Law. Why would they? Since obeying the Mosaic Law was not given to give eternal life to those who obeyed it. It was not obedience to the Law that saved...

    The 24 elders in heaven, in Revelation 4:4

    "Came in" is simply a way of saying the sons of God made their abode with the daughters of men. IOW the sons of God from the line of Seth, abode, lay down with the daughters of Cain, who was driven out, or away from the line that began to call upon the name of the Lord (Gen 4:26) to be cursed...

    3 key questions concerning eschatology

    Daniel's vision is what shall come to pass at the end of this age when Christ comes again. We find this in Rev 19 & 20. Look for example to the prophet Joel. His prophesy indicates Pentecost as being the Day of the Lord, when the Spirit is liberally poured out, but Joel also says the Lord...

    The 24 elders in heaven, in Revelation 4:4

    If the sons of God were fallen angels, why is God angry with mankind? Notice the passage says MEN began to multiply and daughters were born to THEM. The sons of God took them to be their wives. Instead of being angry with so-called fallen angels, as would be reasonable, God says His spirit...
