Hi Marilyn,

Here is the Hebrews 11:40 contextual meaning of "better":

a. more useful, more serviceable: 1 Corinthians 11:17; 1 Corinthians 12:31 R G; Hebrews 11:40

There are two other earlier Hebrews references that clarify what that "something better" is:

Hebrews 7:22
By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.

Hebrews 8:6
But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.


It is the better testament/covenant, God's New Will and Testament written in the Blood of the Divine Mediator, His Son.

Hi jgr,

Thank you for those notes. So...what has the Body of Christ been promised?

Marilyn.

Based on the passage below, your timing is wrong.

Gal 1:14 And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.
Gal 1:15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace,
Gal 1:16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:
Gal 1:17 Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus.(Based on Galatians 4:25, Mount Sinai is in Arabia. Some have speculated that Paul may have gone to Mount Sinai.)
Gal 1:18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.

Paul's main ministry was to the Gentiles, based on verse 16.

Paul went to see Peter about 3 years after his conversion.
Not 7-10, years later.

.

baberean2,

1. 7-10 years after the Day of Pentecost was when Peter had the vision of the clean and unclean Acts 10.
This was before Paul started his ministry to the gentiles which was Acts 28.
Paul had a ministry to Jews in Peter’s time of the vision of the clean and unclean.
He had appealed to Caesar Acts 28:19. The Jews rejected him vs. 25-27.
Verse 28 he was going to go to the gentiles.
Verse 30; he preached the KOG and what concerned the things of Jesus Christ for two years in his own hired house.
I believe you are confused. Jerry Kelso

jgr,

1. God knows the DNA.
When it says Elijah shall first come and restore all things, that will be one of the things that he does according to the Jews.
But the truth is that in Revelation 7 are the 144,000 Jews from all the assigned tribes. This proves the Jewish nation will be there. DNA: Jewish.

2. Israel did have Jews and proselytism gentiles. They then became Jews by salvation and following Judaism in their theocracy.

3. Every age had to have faith and obedience in the things contained in the revelation of the covenant they lived under.
We have different nationalities who are citizens that are born here or naturalized. But this a republic not a full blown theocracy such as in the form of the Jewish nation of Israel. God had Israel to be kind to the stranger at the gate and at the same time they were to kill all of the gentile nation including the women and children so they wouldn’t grow up and come back after Israel.

4. The Jews were not to intermix with gentiles overall.
Jesus called the phonecian woman a dog for this reason. At the same time he was Messiah and because of her faith she was forgiven.
They still proselyted as seen in the early church on the DOP Acts 2:10.
In the vision of the clean and and unclean was because Peter was a Jew and wasn’t supposed to mix the clean with the unclean Acts 10. These were after the resurrection.
Though the New Covenant was ratified at Calvary it didn’t manifest it self until afterwards because of gradual revelation. The Bible classes the Jews, Gentiles and the church as the classes of the people in the world.
God has always provided a way for gentiles to be saved during the Old Testament and the New Testament.
That doesn’t mean that the nation of Israel doesn’t have Jewish DNA.
The Jews have a DNA today and will in the tribulation Ezekiel 37:24-28, Revelation 7.
Spiritual DNA alone has nothing to do with the gifts and callings of Israel are without repentance and are forever Romans 11:25-29 in the KOH. Jerrykelso

jerry,

Here is Jewish DNA today.

It's in the entire human race.

The Jews themselves confirm it, so you can't dispute it.

It's a big club and we're all in it.

Which confirms the meaninglessness it has always had in God's Sight.

Spiritual DNA is God's only interest.

Hi jgr,

And what are those, specifically?

Marilyn.

Hi Marilyn,

You're a child of God. Why don't you know?

For a start:

Hebrews 1
1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;

The Son now communicates with us directly, through His Word et al.

3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:

The end of all other sacrifices for all time.

8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

The present reality of the kingdom and what characterizes it.


Sufficient for a start?

Hi jgr,

Yes very good start. The Lord speaking to us, how wonderful, and purging our sins, amazing. The Lord`s throne is of righteousness, amen. Do you know where that is?

Hi Marilyn,

Ephesians 2
4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us,
5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved)
6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

That's where I'm sitting. And you?

Hi jgr,

Yes by the spirit of God. And where actually is that, in the universal realm or the third heaven?

Hi Marilyn,

Not sure, but it's the plural of the same Greek word as "heavenly" in Hebrews 12:22, so the same location as the Heavenly Jerusalem.

jgr,

1. What scriptures do you use?
According to Ezekiel 37 the nation of Israel will be in the KOH just like the promises God gave them in the beginning in the Davidic Covenant to start with in Samuel and Chronicles.

2. You would rather believe in man’s theories and replacement theology.
Most all of the resources if not all are secular and liberal publications.

3, God is interested in spiritual DNA if you remain faithful. It is the blue way to be in rulership positions in the kingdom. We are in rulership training right now for the kingdom 2 Timothy 2:12.
The Jews have to repent for being backslidden in the time of tribulation Ezekiel 37 and the two sticks of Judah and Israel repenting and being united as one flock with one shepherd with David as their King and their offspring forever Matthew 24:15-21 in the time of Jacob’s trouble. Revelation 7 the tribes of Israel are mentioned not the New Testament Church.
The church saints will be in Heaven during the tribulation Revelation 4:1 raptured; 11:18; believers works judgement and rewards; 19:7-10 the marriage of the lamb before they come out of Heaven with Christ vs. 11-15.
I’m take the truth of the scripture over man’s theories anyway. Jerry kelso

jerry,

You'd better call up those ignorant Jews and inform them that their DNA is just a theory.

As is your own DNA.

You'd better call up those ignorant mathematicians who've confirmed genetic ubiquity and tell them that DNA is just a theory.

You'd better call up that ignorant Dr. Francis Collins, a believer, who directed the Human Genome Project to successfully map and sequence human DNA, and tell him his work is all for naught, because DNA is just a theory.

You'd better call up every ignorant criminal investigator who has ever used DNA matching to solve a crime, and tell them that they never actually solved the crime, because DNA is just a theory.

You're right, "DNA" is not found in scripture.

So it's just a theory.

Show 7-10 years in the text.
Otherwise, you made it up.


.

baberean2,

1. Just because it is not in text doesn’t mean it didn’t happen in that time line.

2. The usual date for Christ crucifixion was 33 A.D. Others believe it was 30 A. D. and between 30-33 A.D.
The resurrection was 3 days later Luke 24:46.
Acts 1:3 was 40 days that the disciples saw Christ after his resurrection.

3. Some say Paul was saved after the three years into Arabia and then Damascus and went up to Jerusalem to see Peter Galatians 1:17-18.

4. Some say Paul was saved in 35A.D.

5. 33-35 is two years. 35-38 for the 3 years before going to Jerusalem is a total of 5 years. The other 3 years would have been because Paul was stalked by the Jews who sought to kill him Acts 9:23 to Peter’s vision.
Finis J. Dake in his annotated notes in his KJV Bible pg. 133 cont from column 1 letter a says:After about 3 years when he had come a second time to Damascus and after being in Arabia that long Galatians 1:18; 2 Corinthians 11:32. Cp. 1 Kings 2:38-39 where many days also implies 3 years.
2+3+3=8.
Others say 7-10 years and then some say 14-17 years.

15. If I recall the point was that Peter was the first given revelation that the gentiles should be on the same level ground as the Jews.
This is how gradual revelation unfolded. It had to be from Peter because he was the main leader of the early church which was basically Jesus.
Dake says that the resurrection of Dorcas ended the first period of the Christian Church. After that Peter had the vision of the clean and unclean which changed the picture of the church and manifesting the mystery of the church.
Paul said in Ephesians 3:3-4; Paul did say he was given the revelation by God to show his knowledge of the mystery of Christ.
In vs. 5; which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is revealed now unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit. Paul wasn’t the only one with the revelation of the mystery of the church, but He did popularize it Americans ng the gentiles more and clearer than the rest.

16. Paul had his revelation in Arabia but he had to wait to start preaching and embellishing on the mystery of the church because of Paul’s history and conversion was controversial and many wanted to kill him Acts 9:22-25 and others were afraid of him and questioned his salvation Acts 9:26.
33 A.D.- 35 A. D.- 38- 41 A.D. = 8 years. Jerry kelso

jgr, this is what I am talking about. You are pitting, personalizing your argument, trying to cause conflict between parties. You need to stop this practice.

Jerry does not need to call up anyone. Just present your argument on it's own merits. And stop the personalizing, conflict agitation.

jgr,

1. Under the Old Covenant gentiles proselytized into Judaism became a Jew.

2. The real point is that there will be a real Jewish nation in the future tribulation just like there is today and in 1948. Ezekiel 37; Judah and Israel which is not the church.
I have already given scripture that the church is in Heaven during the tribulation while the Jews are on earth.
There will be Jews who are martyred in the tribulation and go to Heaven Revelation 15:1-2 they sing the song of Moses and the lamb.
The Jews left on earth will be saved such as the Jewish remnant Revelation 12:17; 11:3; Ezekiel 37 will be those who remain.
The church will have rulership in the Kingdom 2 Timothy 2:12.
Believe the scriptures not men. Jerry Kelso

You can base your doctirne on what "some say".

Others of us use what is plainly written in scripture.

The context the passage clearly states that Paul went to Arabia after God had revealed His Son to Paul.


Gal 1:15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace,
Gal 1:16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:
Gal 1:17 Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus.
Gal 1:18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.

jerry,

They couldn't become Jews. They had no Jewish DNA. They were specifically identified in Genesis 17:12 as "not of thy seed".

But it was irrelevant, because they were extended exactly the same covenant as those who were of Abraham's seed.

The only criteria were faith and obedience.

Spiritual DNA.

As always.

Douggg, Jerry has declared his belief that DNA is just a theory.

My suggestions follow completely logically from his stated belief.

He has not disagreed.

Hi Marilyn,

Not sure, but it's the plural of the same Greek word as "heavenly" in Hebrews 12:22, so the same location as the Heavenly Jerusalem.

Hi jgr,

Yes I also believe it is the same location as the New Jerusalem. (Heb. 12: 22) And note, the New Jerusalem eventually will come down from there out from God to near the New Earth. (Rev. 21: 10)

So that means we are in the third heaven, the angelic realm near God`s throne.

Marilyn.
