Hello my dear sons 66 Books, and Colbey, It’s good to see you both right on track and up to speed with your ever growing and extensive Bible knowledge, Colbey, I send my prayers to you both and the girls. Hot in Sydney up to 31, here it’s 7 When is spring coming? Help!!
Hi there Justme.
How interested you seem to be in these little studies. I am delighted that you ask so many questions, all the time on and on and on repeating then incessantly. I hope and pray that your knowledge increases in the power of the word, so that I can have a break from them and you.
However you do have one little problem of trying to catch folk out instead of doing serious Bible sudy.
You seem to get into trouble by taking one verse out of context without first checking the intent of previous verses, so as to at least try and verify your ideas.
You tend to do the same thing with my writings and it is a little careless of you.
I have spoken to you about this problem of yours before.
I hope you don’t mind me mentioning it but it may cause others to think that it may be me that’s careless and that would not do or be fair on me now would it Justme. I’m sure you don’t continually do this on purpose to spread that idea about, but please be less careless in future and do try and think before you say anything.
Bible.
You quote me,
"When will those be raised who are NOT in the book?"
2 Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt.
There is absolutely no, nada, zero , nix, not an iota of a tiny hint that there is any time lag between these resurrections. One being written in the senence before the other means absolutely nothing, in fact it would have to be that way, You can't write them on top of each other.
======== ========== ===========
Yes I agree ,,, absolutely,, yes, I mean, after all Daniel 12: 2. does not say they will rise at the resurrection of life and damnation does it! No not at all,,, glad we cleared that up,, yes ,,indeed.
Let me reply because some of what I said has been left out by you again, Justme. I said "When will those be raised who are NOT in the book?"
We first have the resurrection of life for EVERYONE, found written in the book of life, that’s in Daniel 12:1. They are also mentioned in Daniel 12: 2
We have another group that are raised who are not in the book of life
They are mentioned after Dan 12:1 and after the righteous are mentioned in Dan 12:2 Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will
awake: some to everlasting life, ( "good guys" mentioned in Dan 12:1)
(now we have those not in the book of life)
"others to shame and everlasting contempt."
That’s that little misunderstanding fixed.
TIMING & CONTEXT.
Satan’s earthly reign comes to an end.
Daniel 11: 45.And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.
Michael stands and delivers His people EVERYONE written in the book.
Nobody is going to be miss out Justme everyone written in the book, INCLUDING DANIEL!
This is the resurrection of life mentioned FIRST IN THEIR CORRECT ORDER!
Daniel 12: 1.And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.
"Everyone" "DELIVERED",,,,, "EVERYONE that shall be FOUND WRITTEN IN THE BOOK."
THAT INCLUDES DANIEL, LET ME REPEAT SO THAT YOU UNDERSTAND. Justme ,,,, EVERYONE FOUND WRITTEN IN THE BOOK.
That’s it resurrection of life complete.
Well that’s that little misunderstanding about, who are raised first dealt with.
But don’t worry Justme ,,,, Eventually all will be raised some to everlasting life, that’s those in the last verse above, which are delivered out of the tribulation period.
Eventually we will see those raised to everlasting contempt those that will eventually be dealt with after 1000 years. You know the ones Justme, the ones that lived not until the 1000 years is finished.
So all in all Justme, eventually, inevitably, in due time, as time progresses with the fullness of time, the next verse will be fulfilled and after the last resurrection of damnation actually occurs. We can look forward and say Rev 20 2. "And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt." And look back in hindsight and say,,
"yes verse 2 did happen exactly the way the Lord said it would!"
So try and be patient Justme, it’s in the Father’s hands.
There you go Justme, there is not a scrape of evidence to prove your theory, never mind they say "disappointment can improve the character."
Justme, if you look at, Daniel 12.1 it explains about the resurrection of life ,,,,, separately and ,,,,, occurring at the end of the tribulation period ,,,,and doesn’t mention the other ,,,,, resurrection happening at that time,,,, at all!
As far as you saying Justme, quote.
"One being written in the senence before the other means absolutely nothing,."
_____________________
My reply is.
"One sentence?" You mean one verse don’t you?
Why don’t we both look again at Daniel 12:1 where Michael rescues His people,,,, first. You know Justme, ,,,,, those that are gathered in Matt 24:31.And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
Mind Justme,,, let’s not forget that some are taken,,, however some are left, you know Justme, those left for the birds that "pesky" little bird thing as you say which I will deal with later,, so try and be patient.
You say Justme, quote, "in fact it would have to be that way, You can't write them on top of each other."
Why do you even suggest such a silly thing.
The problem is Justme, they don’t try and write them on top of each other as you try to do by lumping the time of the resurrections together which kind of lumps them on top of each other, so again try reading Daniel 12:1 and bingo your problem will be solved.
Now, now Justme, we cannot take one small verse of the Bible and imply things now can we.. As I would suggest again read Daniel 12:1 before you get to the verse that you use as your argument. No,, no ,,, please ,,, don’t thank me it was nothing at all,, I just like to help someone lost, so to speak,, up the creek without a paddle, if you know what I mean.
Did you know Justme, That Jesus Himself deals with the sequence of events, starting firstly with the first resurrections of life, then He moves on to the judgement, then the resurrection of damnation and in discussing these event’s places them in their correct order?
No,,, I guess you didn’t realise that by your questions, still never mind.
Which unfortunately for you as you say like to say Justme "blows your argument out of the water." I like that phrase, you used on me very early in this thread, it says it all.
Let’s, you and I look at the timing or sequence of events.
Firstly. Resurrection of life!
Jesus is speaking firstly of the dead that shall live, in this next verse.
John 5:25.Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and THEY SHALL LIVE.
Jesus said, " The hour is coming and now is?"
I think you should be careful when you try cramming both resurrections into one hour Justme, the Creator of time does not seem to be subject to it.
We do not understand time like the creator does unless you can explain what Jesus said in clear terms in verse 25. However, I will stick to the event, the resurrection of life occurring firstly.
We must remember there are two, did I forget to mention that? No,, I don’t think I did forget.
We have Jesus saying "the Hour is coming" thensays "and now is," Then Jesus says, "when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and THEY THAT HEAR SHALL LIVE."
Jesus is speaking of the ONE event, the resurrection of life "THEY THAT HEAR SHALL LIVE."
So, what do we have? We have the resurrection of life. "THEY THAT HEAR SHALL LIVE."
That’s that.
John 5: 26. For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself;
Jesus has authority of life which is within Himself, from the Father to say, "THEY THAT HEAR SHALL LIVE."
Now we have the sequence of events being shown by the Lord Himself, He now brings us to the judgement!
Secondly, the Judgement!
Jesus as the Son of man has authority over judgement which is mentioned only AFTER the resurrection of life with the words "they that hear shall live."
27.And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.
Jesus has already spoken of the resurrection of life by saying "THEY THAT HEAR SHALL LIVE." Then Jesus speaks of the "judgment," in that order!
Now Jesus speaks of an hour that is to come, where the resurrection for those "they that hear shall live" but says, "ALL that are in the graves shall hear his voice,"
The word "ALL" is used, so we now have to look for the meaning of "ALL," because obviously Jesus was not referring to "ALL" when speaking of "they that hear shall live," because they were only "those found written in the book of life"
therefore being of a selected group to the resurrection of life.
28Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which ALL that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
We already know of "they that hear shall live," but what about the other group that make up the word "ALL?"
The answer is given in the next verse and note the sequence.
Firstly those resurrected of life are mentioned, then judgement is mentioned for those that make up "all" that hear His voice are referred to being a part of the resurrection of damnation.
Let me just repeat so we don't miss it Justme.
28Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which ALL that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
The sequence outlined by Jesus in earlier verses is still not broken with the above verse. There is a different time for both resurrections for "ALL" that make up the two groups.
Thirdly. The resurrection of damnation.
Only after the resurrection of life do we get the next mention of the resurrection of damnation
29And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.
