How will the World look when Jesus returns?

[Allenbee]

Animal sacrifice is very misunderstood.

Many Christians eat meat and allowed to, though our Lord is the greater sacrifice.
BUT... go see the terrifying hell these poor animals go through lined up for the SLAUGHTER. No respect for life, and all for MONEY. (Buying at the supermarket doesn't tell the true story).

In the old Biblical days the animal was precious, respected, fattened up - and prayerfully dedicated to God.
Clean instant slaughter and the blood to the earth.

So this is "kosher" meat. For Islam called "halal" with all blood drained from the carcass in both cases.

So this is how we will respect our animals, and the smell of sacrificing and cooking this dedicated animal...is acceptable to God.
If you are evil...it is "a smell in God's nostrils" (Yes that is a scripture).

I buy Kosher. (I don't want to eat meat dedicated to Mohamed perhaps)

So where do you see Jesus's literal reign on earth?

Hey J7...HUNDREDS of scriptures in Isaiah alone read CH 24,25...end time prophesy... SEE the blessings.

SEE...sermon on the mount; [FONT=&quot]3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. (heaven OK)[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. (EARTH OK)[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. (Heaven OK)

AND... Ps 37;29; "The righteous will inherit the earth" (earth OK)!!! 115; the earth He has given to man. Isaiah 45; earth formed to be inhabited. Luke 14; Glory to God in heaven and peace on earth.[/FONT]

 

[Nehemiah6]

Open question

Devastated and prepared for more devastation, and ultimately for even more devastation, before the New Heavens and the New Earth are established.

 

[Allenbee]

"Devastated and prepared for more devastation, and ultimately for even more devastation, before the New Heavens and the New Earth are established".

Yes well, we live in Satan's evil concrete jungle world, and it ALL will and MUST be flattened WORLDWIDE.
This is all "the lofty towers" of Babylon destroying and polluting the earth, where the rich get richer and the poor poorer.
THIS IS NOT...GOD'S WILL for the earth that was created for man to SHARE. So is the new heaven (satan cast out) and new earth. (Evil man reaped).

So is it started WITH GREAT TRIBULATION.

The instruction to AVOID this necessary destruction are many.
Rev 18;4 "GET OUT of her my people".

So we are to flee OUT of the cities, as..."The CITIES of the NATIONS fell" Rev 16;19.

For this 7 year period we "flee to the mountains" or "fly to the wilderness" AWAY from the face of the serpent.
This is Satan who now is cast out of heaven with all his angels, for the final 3 1\2 years. Rev 12 all.

To me...there is no "too soon" to flee the cities to live God's WAY. BUT we are to flee as communes worldwide.
"The voice in the wilderness" BEFORE the tribulation and our Lord's return.
Joel 2 is end time prophesy, and I love this assurance;

"before us a garden of Eden...behind us a desolate waste".

Open question

Vanishing smoke.

 

[oldethennew]

for those who remain, 'the walking dead'...

Devastated and prepared for more devastation, and ultimately for even more devastation, before the New Heavens and the New Earth are established.[/QUOTE]


? Where do you get this?

 

[Allenbee]

According to garee and oldethennew... these end time prophesies are
"Vanishing smoke"... "and for those who remain, the walking dead" (What Bible is this)?

To Bible students then... and the world when Jesus returns;

Isaiah 32;
Because the palaces shall be forsaken; the multitude of the city shall be left; the forts and towers shall be for dens for ever, a joy of wild asses, a pasture of flocks; (Destruction of Satan's Babylon)
15Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness be a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest. (flee to the wilderness away from the destruction).
16Then judgment shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness remain in the fruitful field.
17And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever. (So...that has not happened YET, and the beginning of the worldwide Eden)
18And my people shall dwell in a peaceable habitation, and in sure dwellings, and in quiet resting places;
19When it shall hail, coming down on the forest (of the evil); and the city (Babylon) shall be low in a low place.
20Blessed are ye that sow beside all waters, that send forth thither the feet of the ox and the ass.

This is GOD'S WILL since creation and the same at Rev 21; 3-4


OK...so how about these blessings from our Lord's incoming reign on earth; (look for the vanishing smoke and walking dead)
1Isa
iah 11;And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse.
4With righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.
5And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.
6The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them.
7And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox.
8And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice' den.
9They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the EARTH shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.
10And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious.
11And for the Jews;
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea.
12And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth. (1948)
13The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim.
14But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines toward the west; they shall spoil them of the east together: they shall lay their hand upon Edom and Moab; and the children of Ammon shall obey them.
15And the LORD shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; and with his mighty wind shall he shake his hand over the river, and shall smite it in the seven streams, and make men go over dryshod.
16And there shall be an highway for the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria; like as it was to Israel in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt.

(So...reference to an EXODUS...as this has NOT happened before...so applicable to this generation).

 

[oldethennew]

Allen, it sounds like you don't have a clue -
we will never give up on you, one reason, (27)...

 

[pottersclay]

The earth will be devastated and bloodstained.

 

[Nehemiah6]

Devastated and prepared for more devastation, and ultimately for even more devastation, before the New Heavens and the New Earth are established.[/QUOTE]

? Where do you get this?

From the Bible of course. Where else?

1. The Great Tribulation (aka the Day of the LORD) is devastation such as has never been seen on this earth, nor will ever be seen again.

2. Following that, the heavens and the earth will be "shaken", and all the heavenly bodies will be wrenched out of place, while the earth will suffer earthquakes, stars falling upon it, hail and fire mingled with blood, a great mountain burning with fire cast into the sea, and multiple other devastating calamities bringing destruction to all the inhabitants of the earth.

3. Following that will be the second coming of Christ in judgment, with the destruction of millions of people, so that a river of blood will literally flow on the earth.

4. Then Following the Millennium, there will be UTTER DEVASTATION as the whole globe is supernaturally burned up, in preparation for the New Heavens and the New Earth.

"Allen, it sounds like you don't have a clue" -

Haha that's funny...BECAUSE my post #27...is all scriptures !!!

So those scriptures were written by Isaiah under God's direction for what happens at end times.

Are you then saying Isaiah and God don't have a clue ?

My bet...you just comment without reading the post.

 

[20]

KJVLuke21:25-28 25. And shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; 26. Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the power of heaven shall be shaken. 27.And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28.And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

Actually, oldethennew, I agree with Allenbee, and post #27.

 

[dcontroversal]

Simple....devastated......Jesus was clear.....If he does not come back when he does there will be NO FLESH left alive......!

 

[MarcR]

Acts 1:6 " When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?"

Technically Israel consisted of the ten "northern tribes" and they were being restored to the kingdom in the 1st century.

Both Peter and James write about their restoration to Christ's kingdom:

1 Pet 1;1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who reside as aliens, scattered (Greek - diaspora) throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, who are chosen


1 Pet 2:19 But you are A CHOSEN RACE, A royal PRIESTHOOD, A HOLY NATION, A PEOPLE FOR God’s OWN POSSESSION, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light

James 1:1 James, a bond-servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes who are dispersed (Greek - diaspora) abroad: Greetings.

Strongs

G1290 diaspora dee-as-por-ah'

from G1289;

dispersion, i.e. (specially and concretely) the (converted) Israelite resident in Gentile countries.

Technically Israel is what God renamed Jacob and all heirs to the covenant that God made with him.

Israel as the 10 northern tribes came to a final end with the Assyrian captivity even though God promised restoration in Hos chapter 2.

Under the covenant of Jeremiah 31, the Church is included by the adoption of Rom chapter 8, etc.

 

[MattforJesus]

The world will look the same,grass,trees,animals,insects,people,and things that are a part of the physical make up of the world,and life forms,the same as today.

But it will be a time of peace where people will not war with people,animals will not be against people,or other animals,and will be so tame that a child can lead a crocodile in one hand,and a lion in the other,and that animal will have no desire to hurt that child.

Will be like it was in the garden of Eden,and natural disasters will be a thing of the past,and weather will be tolerable,and nice at all times.

There will be no more jobs related to businesses as today,but the heathen that Jesus and the saints rule over will work the land for food,and make their own clothing,and shelter,for that is all they need,and the land will produce a plenty without difficulty.

I doubt that there will be cars,and planes,and boats as in the big kind,but people will only walk around,and animals might be the only form of transportation,unless that is considered cruel to use them like that seeing it is the time of peace,and possibly chariots,but I doubt it,but fuel forms of transportation will probably not be used,but will be done away with.

I believe that all forms of technology,and businesses,and anything of invention that people came up with during the history of mankind could be done away with,and it will be all natural.

The heathen that God spared have to go up year after year to worship the LORD at Jerusalem,but there would be no need for fuel powered transportation,for the people are probably living close to Jerusalem,and in that area,and not too far away,and not living on the other side of the world.

And the reason for this is because when the world attacks Jerusalem in the future they are all together in the area of Jerusalem,for the whole world attacks the Jews,so when God puts them down,they are still all in that area,and will probably remain there for the people that God spared.

And also Jesus will rule out of Jerusalem,sitting on the throne of David,and Israel shall be the only operating nation,and government at that time,and since Jesus and the saints rule over them,they would all have to be close to Israel living in that area,and not too far off.

So if they have to go up year after year to worship Jesus,they do not have too far to travel.

All people's technology,in any form,will all be done away with,and it will be all natural.No cars.No planes.No ships and big boats.No businesses,no jobs as today,but all living off the land,and like the garden of Eden when there was no technology that came about yet.

The LORD shall be King in that day,and there shall be one LORD,and His name one,and the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD,as the waters cover the sea,and all the heathen shall only recognize Jesus as their authority.

But the world will look the same,and things that have been destroyed by mankind,with nuclear weapons that fly at the 6th trumpet,and one third of the population of the world perishes,and anything else mankind ruined in nature,can all be restored,and healed quickly in nature,and the earth will look as if it has never been ravished,or destroyed anywhere,like when God first created the earth.

Trees will flourish big time,and plant life will abound big time,and pollution will be gone,and nothing that would pollute will be around,and oxygen levels,and quality,a whole lot better,which means a lot to the heathen,but to the saints does not make a difference,for they are in glorified bodies,and have no need for any physical benefit,for they do not even breathe air to live.
