    The battle of Gog and Magog does not happen until after the thousand year reign of Christ

    Exactly! We have part in the first resurrection THROUGH the resurrection life of Christ. That's because we are dead spiritually, not physically in trespasses and sins and must be made spiritually alive. That's what happens through the Spirit of Christ within us. John is not saying the first...

    The battle of Gog and Magog does not happen until after the thousand year reign of Christ

    If mankind does not have a natural spirit, how are they physically alive? Do you think Paul is directing his words to physical corpses? In the beginning God breathed breath into the man He created from the earth. That breath is called "the breath of life" because through it Adam became a...

    When was the A.O.D fulfilled?

    I danced to this tune of yours before, I won't be so foolish as to go round with you to this tune again! I would be better off speaking to the wall!

    The absurdity of Pretrib logic

    Satan's efforts to destroy God's creation was ended by Christ being obedient to death. Christ ended the power of Satan to hold man of faith in bondage to the power of death. This is how the cross of Christ spiritually bound Satan. Taking away his power to hold man of faith in bondage to fear...

    The absurdity of Pretrib logic

    The mystery hidden in ages past was that salvation according to grace through faith in Christ was now available to Gentiles as well as Jews, whosoever believes! Romans 16:25-26 (KJV) Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ...

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    This passage does not say the coming of Christ was kept secret. All the prophets foretell of His coming. The point Paul is making that none could know before the coming of Christ is how 'faith' is not of the wisdom or power of man, but of God. Had they known the wisdom of God would be made...

    The absurdity of Pretrib logic

    No further delay of what? Yes, when the seventh trumpet begins to sound the days/time/age given the Church for building the Kingdom of God (a thousand symbolic years) shall be no longer. There will not be another one thousand years to follow. The only time left shall be for Satan to have his...

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    I believe the 'mystery' that had been hidden, but now since Christ made known to mankind of faith is not the prophesy of Daniel's seventy weeks or the timing for the coming of Messiah. I believe what was hidden from Old is that Gentiles too would have access to the Kingdom of God and that the...

    The absurdity of Pretrib logic

    You said: "The seventh trumpet signals the time, times, half time that Satan will have left, as he will be cast down to earth." You're ignoring Rev 10 where John writes that when the seventh trumpet begins to sound there should be time no longer. You haven't explained how there can be time...

    The absurdity of Pretrib logic

    Where do you get that Satan is given time, times and half time in the Revelation???

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    From the decree issued first by Cyrus, then ratified by King Artaxerxes to the anointing of Christ at 27 years of age is 483 years. The final week of Christ’s earthly ministry is divided from the beginning of His earthly ministry to His cross is 3 ½ days, ends with His resurrection three days...

    The absurdity of Pretrib logic

    How can the sounding of the seventh trumpet signal time, times and half a time when Rev 10 says that when the seventh trumpet begins to sound, "that there shall be time no longer"? Revelation 10:5-7 (KJV) And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to...

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    I don't recall when he died, but it's been some months??? ago now? I don't remember the exact title of his study, but he commented on it in eschatology board. Gedge was last seen on the boards in Sept 2023.

    There are 2 tribulation periods, the “first” is to the Jews

    Christian Gedge gave us a very good study of Daniel's prophesy before he died. The following comes mostly from his study 'Daniel's 70-week Timeline' a worthy study to consider. Daniel 9:24-27 (KJV) Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the...

    When was the A.O.D fulfilled?

    How does Paul's desire to present the Church as a chaste virgin to Christ mean Christians can no longer sin? It's natural for Paul to want these disciples of Christ to keep themselves pure knowing how easily the serpent can beguile us through subtilty, corrupting our minds from the simplicity...

    When was the A.O.D fulfilled?

    Believers are made free from the penalty of sin, which is the second death. We will not be made free from ALL sin this side of heaven. We would not be told to confess our sins if we never sin. 1 John 1:9 (KJV) If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to...

    When was the A.O.D fulfilled?

    NO! The promise of Abraham's Seed (Christ) is that whosoever believes shall inherit the whole earth made new again. Abraham was not so daft that he longed for physical land destined to be burned up. He looked and longed for an inheritance, not in the land of promise, he looked for a city...

    When was the A.O.D fulfilled?

    No His promise of the land of Caanan was conditioned upon their obedience to God. Under the New Covenant through the blood of Christ there is no conditional covenant because the New Covenant is FOREVER to all who believe. I have nothing to worry about because I have Christ's Spirit within, and...
