And also I never said that God is subject to time with that statement. If you believe in Jesus as God then you would connect the dots right away that when God came in the flesh: He subjected Himself to time for 30 years as He subjected us to time.Dream on. The 1 day is as a 1000 days and vice versa is an illustration that God is not subject to time. Its obvious how old the universe is, and YOWM (Day) has about 50 meanings, one of which is a general period of time.
Question....the Universe is still EXPANDING and Stars are still forming, is God at Rest? Ponder that.
No stars are still forming....now that is real humor there. The part you don't get is God commanded all things to come forth at the beginning, it is still his COMMAND that brings forth the Universe, thus He has ceased Creating. The Rest part is bogus anyway, God never needs to Rest, he has just CEASED CREATING. But his Command is bringing forth Stars this very day.BOO! I gave hard evidence to prove what time period we are in: unlike the mumbo jumbo you whipped up. Genesis 1:1-2:3 contradicts your constant creation of stars and expansion of the universe as God on the 7th Day rested from all of His works which He had made: therefore God completed all the things He wanted to make and expanded our universe to the dimensions He saw fit for it to have: therefore there are no new stars being made and our universe is not expanding nor contracting.
He does not need to command those things which are meant to stay in perpetual motion. You claim God never needs to rest though He admitted to resting on the 7th Day.No stars are still forming....now that is real humor there. The part you don't get is God commanded all things to come forth at the beginning, it is still his COMMAND that brings forth the Universe, thus He has ceased Creating. The Rest part is bogus anyway, God never needs to Rest, he has just CEASED CREATING. But his Command is bringing forth Stars this very day.
The Universe is 6000 years old......
Can -you- give us a practical example about how you track the vilian ?Is there any specialists [spiritually inspired] able to decoding the Book of Revelation here ?I pretty much agree. Use the timeframes stated in the text to fit a timeline framework. And....
Track the main villain on the timeline... specifically the individual who goes through a series of roles from first being the little horn to end-up being the beast, his final role.
Can you give us a practical example of the overlapping....rather that being separate events -whose some of them like the 3 WOES are linked-....that will occur in a seqential progressive timeframe ?And remember that many of the sevens overlap with one another.
Every generation of believers since Jesus have ascended to Heaven believed that they were living in the LAST generation ...We've seen our better days, this is the last generation, we cannot endure this sinful world much longer.
I did not say this was John's Revelation, I said that John was a Revelator. So who are the "two witness" and what is the meaning of the "eyes of the Lord"?Again let me reiterate that this is not John's Revelation.
First you would have to go back to my post #19 and follow my advice there.Can -you- give us a practical example about how you track the vilian ?Is there any specialists [spiritually inspired] able to decoding the Book of Revelation here ?
Lets start with this:
Revelation 17
8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend OUT of the BOTTOMLESS PIT, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
Usually this is based on when Jerusalem (Judea) became established and Israel becoming a nation after the 6 day war on June 11, 1967. Right now the life span is around 80 years in that part of the world so 1967 plus 80 equals 2047. So according to this teaching then Jesus will return before the year 2047. The church will be 2,000 years old in 2029.Yes !But what makes you believe that our generation is that one ?
probably to your first sentence. Second sentence, we don't need to be influencd by because we have the parabable of the fig tree (among other indicators) that we are the fig tree generation.Every generation of believers since Jesus have ascended to Heaven believed that they were living in the LAST generation ...
In the Hebrew calendar we are year 5,777 which mean that there could be 223 years remaining before the completion of the 6,000 years since Adam...
I do not recall Jesus giving anyone a 14 page answer to a question. For example Jesus was asked: 36 "Teacher, which commandment is the greatest in the Law?” His answer was very simple: 37 Jesus declared, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and greatest commandment.…Thanks for your explanation. I would point out that there are some questions that don't have simple concise answers. I think understanding the Olivet Discourse is one of them.
See posts #75 and #76. 'Nuff said.Yes !But what makes you believe that our generation is that one ?
That was to give a practical example to the other poster.First you would have to go back to my post #19 and follow my advice there.
To track the villian, you have to have a timeline framework to know when he is the beast, the Antichrist, the littl horn, etc. Which my post #19 gives the structure of the chapters in Revelation. Not as though you are new to Revelation though.
Revelation 17:8 tell us that the BEAST whose everyone SHALL WONDER whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb will COME OUT OF THE BOTTOMLESS PIT.In your case, just tale a look at the structure information from Chapter 6 to 19 that I provided in that post.Regarding the villain being the beast in Revelation 17:8, you have to look for connections elsewhere in Revelation... Chapter 13 is the chapter regarding the beast being killed and come back to life and everyone worship him in the end times.
So do you believe in reincarnation? I don't. So the beast in former times is not going to be reincarnated in the end times. The only other option I know of is the beast in former times, is now a
disembodied spirit, that will be allowed to come out of the bottomless pit
and possess the end times person - earning the possessed endtimes person (when he appears to have cheated death) the label of being the beast.
A Biblical generation is 40 years ....The modern State of Israel was founded in 1948.probably to your first sentence. Second sentence, we don't need to be influencd by because we have the parabable of the fig tree (among other indicators) that we are the fig tree generation.
