How did that work and why did rain start to occur regularly?
Most likely the atmosphere. Probably like a greenhouse or something.

Even the age of people fell off rapidly after the flood it was different

yawn

ok whatever

again you make a symbol of everything

cities are prepaired all the time for people, or events

it says the city is prepaired as a bride.. not the bride, so your still wrong!

I am still waiting for you to tell me what type of rain God punishes people who do not come to jerusalem is
Rain is the word of God, the former rain is the Old Testament and the later rain is the New Testament. Those who want come to heavenly Jerusalem won’t get rain.

This is called rightly dividing the word of truth - discern what things are earthly and what things are spiritual.

Right on 16.

Paul tells the Ephesians we are the city and the dwelling of God:

(Eph 2:22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.)

This is what happens when certain scripture(s) don't fit in with the dispensational theologies.
Good to see your still here!

Another point, Jesus calls his folks a city on a hill - same type of symbology John uses in Revelation

(Mat 5:14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.)

Case proven and case closed.

No

its called taking the word of God and twisting it to force it to meet your belief system and not taking it to mean what it says.

gid said it will happen

it will

You can deny it but you can’t stop it

I was supporting what Dave-L said. It isn't necessary to read from the beginning so as to understand your remarks to him. Nor should anyone be expected to read 13 pages back in order to get you. Especially since you judged, "friendly" this in Dave-L's remarks just two pages back. "Only the born again can see the kingdom according to Jesus. So I don't take any too seriously who cannot see it." I stand by that.


lol, oh then you might not realize that the two post I quoted from were from page 3 not just a few pages back and that I agree with Paul in that I am the temple of God. You might not also realize that I think that the head that received the deadly wound and was in the pit in Rev.17:8 is the very one that they said let us make an image of the beast and that it rose from the pit in 1948.

“What agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; as God said, “I will make my dwelling among them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.” 2 Corinthians 6:16 (ESV)
Yes we are the temple that God dwells in. It has never been made with human hands. Not of this creation. Rather than it living in the temporal body of death . No different than dwelling in the body of the Son of man. as the father worked in Jesus to both will and do his God pleasure so it us with us. The corrupted flesh profits for zero.

Yes, the things seen standing in the unseen Holy Place of faith.

were the Chinese promised land, and promised they would be punished if they did something? Are they also promised if they repent God will remember his promise?

are all jews evil? Yet you judge them all as evil just because they are Jews.

hitler did this, where do you think he got this idea and hatred from?
Satan, the father of lies was a murderer from the beginning. Hitler was one of the many antichrists led by the spirit of the antichrist. The devil.

It was a terrible tribulation a continuation of the great tribulation that began when Christ said it was finished. The time of reformation had come. The law and the prophets still doing it work of reforming the souls of men just as when the Son of man was here.

No not all Jews have not received the blessing of the gospel . Some have the unseen Spirit of Christ ,called Christians. The new name God named His bride in Acts . A befitting name, meaning: "Residents of the heavenly City of Christ", named after her husband.

The things of God The unseen spirit of eternal of eternal life , not the flesh seen the temporal , the things of men

Romans 8:8-10 Easy-to-Read Version (ERV) Those who are ruled by their sinful selves cannot please God. But you are not ruled by your sinful selves. You are ruled by the Spirit, if that Spirit of God really lives in you. But whoever does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to Christ. Your body will always be dead because of sin. But if Christ is in you, then the Spirit gives you life, because Christ made you right with God.

Nothing is attributed to what the eyes see (The Letter) .

Romans 2:27-29 King James Version (KJV)And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge thee, who by the letter and circumcision dost transgress the law? For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.

In Revelation 11:15-18 that was given to John he says at the 7th trump when do you think this is or was John deceived?
“And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever. And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God, Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned. And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.” Revelation 11:15–18 (KJV 1900)

This is the end of the world, the judgement, and the destruction of those who destroy the earth.

There is a possibility the born again are just deceived. I was for many years until I was able to disprove a physical kingdom from scripture. The Millennium is a Pharisee doctrine Jesus refuted continually throughout the gospels by teaching a spiritual kingdom instead.
Matthew 28:18 King James Version (KJV)

18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.


What did Yeshua/Jesus mean when he said, "All Power is given unto me in heaven and in earth"?

I'm not sure what point your stating. In Romans 13:3 it states that the rulers are not a terror to good works not that they are working to make me evil it ends in stating to do that which is good and we will have praise of the same.
Are you saying that if Rulers are Evil and running an Evil Administration, than Christians must not be subject to that Power? If yes, are you able to support this with Scripture?

Lucifer invoked at the Vatican


Douay-Rheims Bible

Prophecy of Isaias (Isaiah) - Chapter 14

"...[12] How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, who didst rise in the morning? how art thou fallen to the earth, that didst wound the nations?..."

"...[12] "O Lucifer": O day star. All this, according to the letter, is spoken of the king of Babylon. It may also be applied, in a spiritual sense, to Lucifer the prince of devils, who was created a bright angel, but fell by pride and rebellion against God...."

Case proven and case closed.
This is again where I believe everyone reading the plain meaning of Matthew 5:14 understands its symbolic.

But in Revelation we got specific materials mentioned, specific measurements... . thats why its harder to take it symbolically.

So what is the answer to the question?

What did Yeshua/Jesus mean when he said, "All Power is given unto me in heaven and in earth"?
He is presently seated on David's throne in heavenly Jerusalem above.
