There was also the plot to kill the Jews in the third chapter of Esther.I guess the darkness of relying on himself and what he desired, he wanted to rid the his nation from all jews.
The first time this happened was with Nero, close to 70Ad before the destruction of Jerusalem which got rid of all their history they kept records of who was from which tribe, which is not viable today.
The true Church has confronted and conquered a plethora of heresies and heterodoxies over its more than 2,000 year existence. It will not fail to continue to do the same. The recognition of the true Church as the sole and exclusive Chosen People of God will once again be undisputed, unchallenged, and unassailable. The Bride whom Christ will present to Himself will be "a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish." Ephesians 5:27I say that's just a symptom of the real problem. ;)
And understanding correctly ~ proper discernment of ~ anything in Scripture is really a function of the Holy Spirit's work in people. That's not to say that those who don't understand correctly or discern properly don't have the Holy Spirit. They may, but the knowledge we're talking about is a gift of the Holy Spirit and is not given to some Christians in the same proportion, or to the same degree as in other Christians... and that's surely not to say that some Christians are "less Christian" than others. As Paul say in 1 Corinthians 12:
"Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; and there are varieties of service, but the same Lord; and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God Who empowers them all in everyone. To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. For to one is given through the Spirit the utterance of wisdom, and to another the utterance of knowledge according to the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit, to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another the ability to distinguish between spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. All these are empowered by one and the same Spirit, who apportions to each one individually as He wills." (vv.4-11)
Grace and peace to you, Covenantee.
I think probably not; you might sooner hold back the tides. :)
God is more powerful than any one or any thing. :)
Grace and peace to you!
Rome would be the biggest army and Jerusalm would be the smallest country, with no army really? They where suppose to be called the city of peace.There was also the plot to kill the Jews in the third chapter of Esther.
Then there was Pharaoh coming after the Israelites when they left Egypt.
And most likely many of the nations in the promised land had designs to totally destroy them.
Yeah, don't disagree. but along the lines of what you are saying here, there is nothing new under the sun (Ecclesiastes). But to God be the glory, and to Him alone be that glory. He is really the Conqueror, and one day it will be in full. He is faithful and will surely do it (1 Thessalonians 5:24). Right?The true Church has confronted and conquered a plethora of heresies and heterodoxies over its more than 2,000 year existence. It will not fail to continue to do the same. The recognition of the true Church as the sole and exclusive Chosen People of God will once again be undisputed, unchallenged, and unassailable. The Bride whom Christ will present to Himself will be "a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish." Ephesians 5:27
To you also. Grace and peace to you.Blessings upon you, PinSeeker.
No a Communist is never a Christian ever in fact !A communist person can be a christian.
A muslim person devoted to God can be a Christian and not know it.
Jews that were of Abraham dont exist anymore, in my opinion, which may be wrong. Its just a held tradition, thats been passed on down through others, that where “nonjewish” converted to Judism… which is not part of the actual bloodline itself.
You can say im wrong but in the end it doesnt matter. God looks at the heart of individuals and some people are really harsh on other people for no reason…
If its a religious leader, puttinf bondage on people i get, i dont get it when it comes to regular people who arent religious leaders.
This is historical, believers are grafted into the Vine. It has nothing to do with the coming literal Millennial Kingdom, whichAmillennialism holds that Gentiles join ethnic Jews (Jewish believers), and that since Jesus came, there is no dividing wall between the two,
Absolutely. In Romans 11, (after Christ's death), Paul makes an obvious distinction between the Israelites ( of whom he is from the tribeif Benjamin) and the Gentiles. He states he is an evangelist ti the Gentiles, but Gid did not forget about the Jews, who are still blinded. But a remnant will be saved when the fullness of the Gentiles comes in. So he sums it up by saying all Israel will be saved. That is likely 1/3 of the Jews.both ethnic Jewish and Gentile believers, that all of these folks are in Christ, and there is therefore now no condemnation for any of them (which I think you would agree with), regardless of ethnicity.
Bingo. That is the Amillennial view, very different then mine.Christ's Millennial Kingdom is of a different nature ~ and current ~ rather than future only.
See, you just claimed to be an Israelite, that the whole Body, the Church are Israelites. That is Replacement Theology.We are in Christ... because God has made us, along with Jewish believers, the true offspring of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (see above), and are thus ~ with Jewish believers ~ God's true Israelites
There it is again. Israel is still blinded. We are not Israelites. I do have some Jewish blood but could not claim to be of a 100% pure tribal bloodline and they still exist.Amillennialists see God's Israel for who it really consists of and who God's true Jews are... who is now included... believers of every tongue, tribe and nation.
1948 was significant and prophesied.No amillennial believer worth his/her salt thinks the establishment of Israel as a physical nation is insignificant, Ronald, but only refuses to make more of it than it is.
march on in the glorious LORD . He is our hope and our salvation .
The Church has not replaced ethnic Israel. So what has it replaced?See, you just claimed to be an Israelite, that the whole Body, the Church are Israelites. That is Replacement Theology.
A 100% pure tribal bloodline would necessitate exclusive incestuous interbreeding among its progeny, resulting in increasingly degenerative mutations and ultimate genetic collapse.I do have some Jewish blood but could not claim to be of a 100% pure tribal bloodline and they still exist.
There is no such prophecy.1948 was significant and prophesied.
I think muslims can be christian and buddist, maybe even hindu, perhsps gay people too.No a Communist is never a Christian ever in fact !
Communist are Atheist in fact and Anti-Christ !
No Islam is not worthy of Christ Jesus at all in fact !
The true Jews regarding the blood line do not exist nowadays, not that that's the point ? but if one wants to play that card, well the seed is within but it's like the grains of sand ? within every race now to some extent. but that is not the real issue. the real issue is that one must be born again in fact and that means that one has the Holy Spirit within and is not Lost !
So people who claim a Jewish race being the standard for God are not Saved in fact ?
One who is claiming race relations in regards to God are not Saved Christians in fact. Christianity is not about a race issue at all. It's a Spiritual foundation !
Jews and Islam can come to Christ as that is within everyone's capacity. but they must come out from their religion, because such is a mans works religion in fact.
You are getting absurd now. The implications that Jesus had kids?Jesus' bloodline included Gentiles.
Why don't you just educate yourself. Try being open to a different view - which is likely a futile request but there is always hope:There is no such prophecy.
Tamar, Rahab, and Ruth were Gentiles.You are getting absurd now. The implications that Jesus had kids?
Just stop with your twisting and distorting.
Right.This is historical, believers are grafted into the Vine.
I mean, they're different parts of the Gospel, so I wouldn't say the two "have nothing to do" with each other, but okay...It has nothing to do with the coming literal Millennial Kingdom...
Well, Amillennials disagree on the nature of it, but not the reality of it. It's not future only, so not merely "coming" in that sense; it's ongoing now. It has come, and Jesus is King, just as He said in different ways on different occasions in all four gospels. He was our King then, and He is our King now. He sits over God's Israel right now ~ over Greater Israel, as the Greater David. And it is literal as literal can be... just not a future-only, woodenly literal 1,000 earth-years....which Amillennials don't believe.
Not necessarily, no. Amillennials are not necessarily either full or partial preterists.Amillennials are wither full Preterists or Partial-Preterists.
Full preterists, yes. They're wrong. :)They view the events of Revelation symbolically and having been fulfilled in 70AD.
This is a mischaracterization. And a misunderstanding of who true Jews are in the eyes of God.With that view comes this anti-Semitic view that God is done with the Jews.
Right, all God's Israel, all those whom He will have called to Himself, all true Jews ~ as he defined a true Jew in Romans 2:28-29 ~ all those in Christ (Romans 8), all those recipients of His mercy and compassion, His elect, not from the (ethnic) Jews only but also from the Gentiles (Romans 9), and yes, a partial hardening has come upon Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in, and in this way all Israel will be saved (Romans 11).Absolutely. In Romans 11, (after Christ's death), Paul makes an obvious distinction between the Israelites ( of whom he is from the tribe of Benjamin) and the Gentiles... he sums it up by saying all Israel will be saved
If the Gentiles are now "Gospel eligible" just as ethnic Jews were from the beginning and even now, how can that possibly be termed a replacement of any kind, Ronald? It cannot, and is quite the opposite. Scripturally, what comes to mind again here for me is what Paul writes to the Gentiles in Ephesus:See, you just claimed to be an Israelite, that the whole Body, the Church are Israelites. That is Replacement Theology.
And I point out again, "...no one is a Jew who is merely one outwardly, nor is circumcision outward and physical, but a Jew is one inwardly, and circumcision is a matter of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the letter; his praise is not from man but from God" (Romans 2:28-29). And, we "are all one in Christ Jesus" (Romans 12:5, Galatians 3:28, Colossians 3:15). And the writer of Hebrews says, "Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, but in these last days He has spoken to us by His Son, whom He appointed the heir of all things, through Whom also He created the world" (Hebrews 1:1-2).There it is again. Israel is still blinded. We are not Israelites. I do have some Jewish blood but could not claim to be of a 100% pure tribal bloodline and they still exist.
A nation called the Church was born more than 1900 years before 1948.Why don't you just educate yourself. Try being open to a different view - which is likely a futile request but there is always hope:
4.11 - Millennial Kingdom | Precept Austin
www.preceptaustin.org
More specifically:
but – As the Lord lives, who brought up the sons of Israel from the land of the north and from all the countries where He had banished them. For I will restore them to their own land which I gave to their fathers.” Jer. 16:15
“Say to them, Thus says the Lord GOD, - Behold, I will take the sons of Israel from among the nations where they have gone and I will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land.” Ezek.37:21 The Jewish nation became a state in 1948/49. This gathering of Israel is significant. Many scholars agree that this is when the clock started to tick, a sign that this would be the last generation that would see the end of the ages, the Gentile nations and the Second Coming.
Daniel 7:13-14
I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him.
And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.
Zechariah 12:10 (Romans 11:25-26 event)
And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.
To me Hitler didn’t pull his hatred for the Jews out of thin air. It’s never addressed or talked about by why burning? For me the larger question is where did Hitler get such a notion? I think (and I could be wrong) that he stole it from the Bible. That Hitler took something and being carnally minded asserted it as to be a literal thing and approved of as Hitler was doing Justice. So much is taken from the Bible and if our flesh wants the word to say we are justified for our hatred and respect of persons, if we want it to support our actions of burning Jews…personally I don’t think Hitler came up with it own his own. but used the Word of God to twist it as if Hitler had every right to rid the earth of them. As if he was doing what was good and right. Paul is another example who believed he was doing right by taking others to be imprison and killed. Paul even said himself that he was so zealous that he hunted them down to have them killed. If we want the word to say men should have a collection of wives, then that is what we say it supports to justify our desires. We also say God will gather all those worthy of death and toss them into the Fire. No, I don’t think Hitler came up with antisemitism genocide on his own but he had the mind set that Jews should burn or be killed. Where did this come from? he took something as literal and fed his own desires of hatred as if he was one of Justice in ridding the earth of it.
Rubbish. There are as many Gentiles on a percentage basis as there are Jews on a percentage basis who are power-hungry globalist conspirators. It has nothing to do with "International Jewry" and everything to do with the fall of Adam. What about the elite among the Gentiles who do likewise?Well hello there John and welcome.
I believe your source for Hitler's words are true, and I agree with them. International Jewry has been a major issue for all the planet for a few centuries now, well before Hitler was born. And there is most definitely a difference between these self-styled International Jews and the common Jew orthodox, reformed or non-affiliated Jew. These International Jews have no qualms in murdering the common Jew; they have done it many times in the past and they have not finished yet. If anyone killed or murdered the common Jew in the past it was not by the likes of a type of Hitler, it was International Jewry. Hitler became a opportunist pawn in a major shift in a planned international/global power play and he lost in the process, and International Jewry won, again! And they aim to start another, most probably a real world war this time as their times of deception and surprise are wearing thin.
Folks are starting to wake up, both common Jew and non-Jew.
