Hello MattG,

Do you understand that what is written in the word of God is to all generations until He returns? Below is the entire context of what the Lord said:

"Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will rebel against their parents and have them put to death.You will be hated by everyone because of me, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.When you are persecuted in one place, flee to another. Truly I tell you, you will not finish going through the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes."
Really??!! how does fleeing from one town in ISRAEL to another apply to all generations?

Here is another example of how the son of comes.

Mat 26:62Then the high priest stood up and said to Jesus, “Are you not going to answer? What is this testimony that these men are bringing against you?” 63But Jesus remained silent.The high priest said to him, “I charge you under oath by the living God: Tell us if you are the Messiah, the Son of God.”64“You have said so,” Jesus replied. “But I say to all of you: From now on you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven.”[SUP]e[/SUP]

Read the whole context, not part of it.

It would appear it was what is called historical true parable used to preach the gospel, the hidden message woven throughout the scriptures .

The father of lies uses the things seen as normative walking by sight. I will give to the Son of man as if it belongs to the father of lies to begin with . Christ said as it is written not as we see it or observe it. In that way experience is not the validator of the spiritual things not seen (faith)

While Christ by a law of faith describes the context as the descriptive as that not seen by a work of His faith with it representing the work. Using it as it is written 3 times in Mathew making that seen to no effect .Three denotes the end of a matter in parables.


"The father of lies uses the things seen as normative walking by sight. I will give to the Son of man as if it belongs to the father of lies to begin with . "


​I'm sorry but I have no idea what you are saying.

For Garee the whole Bible is merely a book of parables. You will note that he applies this term to just about anything in Scripture. Which is a good way to be thoroughly confused.

Don't jump to any hasty conclusions. You might be crazy. We are all just a little crazy, right?

For the cause of Christ

The main point of this temptation is to recognize who's world it temporarly iis; and that the Devil is very sneaky in his lying; the only thing wrong with what Satan tempted The Christ with is, Is that he left out the word "temporal" But the Messiah knew the Words of Truth .
