Is that so Mr. EG....can you tell me when this blessing is going to happen?
So sending Jesus the Christ was not a blessing to all the nations?
[quoting a paragraph from a post I made awhile back, regarding this
"BLESSED" issue]
"--
about eight to TEN "BLESSED" passages in the gospels+ [correlating with
Dan12:12's "BLESSED" (specific time slot ["
Blessed is he that waiteth and cometh to the 1335 days"]--referring to "
still-living" persons, at the time of His Second Coming
to the earth) and Rev19:
9's
"BLESSED" both/all pertaining to their entrance into the promised and prophesied
earthly Millennial Kingdom, commencing upon His RETURN
to the earth at the time of His Second Coming
to the earth]"
[end quoting that post]
____________
"BLESSED" -
[re: the promised and prophesied EARTHLY Millennial Kingdom, commencing upon His "RETURN" to the earth (per Rev19)] -
--Daniel 12:12 "
BLESSED is he that waiteth and cometh to the 1335 days" [the '
still-living' person/saints at end of trib, who will enter the MK age in their mortal bodies]
--Matthew 24:46 [Olivet Discourse] "
BLESSED is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing."
--Matthew 25:34 [Olivet Discourse] "Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye
BLESSED of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you
from [
G575 - apo; not "BEFORE G4253 - pro" as is used of others elsewhere] the foundation of the world"
--Luke 12:37 [36-37,38,40,42-44 'when he will
RETURN FROM the wedding..." (as "ALREADY-WED")
THEN the meal] "
BLESSED are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them."
--Luke 12:38 [same as above] "And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so,
BLESSED are those servants."
--Luke 12:43 [same as above] "
BLESSED is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing."
--Revelation 16:15-16 [timing: Armageddon] "Behold, I come as a thief
. BLESSED is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame."
--Revelation 19:
9 [
distinct from 19:
7 re: "the MARRIAGE" itself (re: the "BRIDE/WIFE [SINGULAR]"), by contrast] "
BLESSED are all those having been INVITED to the wedding
FEAST/SUPPER of the Lamb" [i.e. the
earthly MK]
--[see also passages like Mk11:10 "BLESSED"; Acts 3:25-26 (said to "ye men of Israel" v.12, who "killed the Prince of life" vv.13-15, and who still needed to "repent ye and be converted" v.19 ["many" of whom did go on to "believe"
per 4:4]), "shall... be BLESSED"; Mt5:5 "BLESSED... shall
inherit the earth"; etc...]
None of this ^ is "fulfilled"
apart from HIM (and His finished work on the Cross [the "Suffering Servant" aspects of the prophecies that Peter in Acts 3 is basically telling them they had overlooked/missed (re: HIM)]).
