NO, that is why I am saying that a Pre Satan on earth marriage can't happen as you would be missing not just the two witnesses but the 144 and all of Gods elect, the church of Smyrna, the few from Sardis, etc.
Jewish, tribe of Judah, one of the twelve tribes, just one of them. Or a resident of Judea. But the Abrahamic covenant is not only everlasting but was made "ALL THE SEED" not just Judah. What a strange question from a Christian. Unless you have never studied the OT then that would make sense.
The Church are believers from the resurrection of Christ up to the rapture. The Church is made up of mostly Gentile believers. The two witnesses and 144,000 Jews are not part of the Church.
The churches as described in chapters 2 and 3 are periods of Church history from the resurrection unto the present. Presently, we are living in the Church of Laodicea, the lukewarm church period.
I’m not Jewish, But a Gentile believer. Nowhere in Scripture are Christians considered tribes of Israel. Nowhere!
Sounds like you may be into replacement theology.
None of your own? I mean righteousness toward salvation only covers being saved, you best be doing right yourself or you are just mocking God.
You tell me. If the seed was scattered over the whole earth and their numbers are as the stars of heaven, sands of the sea, dust of the earth, what is more probable, you are of Israel naturally called of God, or a gentile?
Why would you pick Judah, to which pertains the Throne or Scepter, the king line, through the covenant of David, for me? Quite the complement though. So I do thank you.
Unless you picked Jewish, because of those who say they are Jews, but are not but are of the synagogue of Satan, then I take that as quite an insult, and so would my Father, and take back my thank you.
Many use the word rapture, it is used to represent resurrection the lifting up or drawing. Same principle different word . Defining the principle is what is to be sought after.
let the meaning of the words designed by the Holy Spirit be the guide. Changing the meaning of one word can change the authors intent . we are warned in Deuteronomy 4;2 not to add new meaning to a word The adversary is right there along side looking to snatch the seed from the good foundation of the word .
John 3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up
John 12:32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.
It cannot be anyone other than Satan the father of lies. The anti spirit that works in antichrists (mankind) many.
Its like one of those things. It's right before your eyes .Its like when I cannot find something and ask my wife. She calls me one dimensional. Been bitten by that snake many times.
In one occasion the Son of man, Jesus revealed the man of sin. . he said to him . . . . . . Peter, Get behind me Satan.
The man of sin has no literal body of his own.
Peter was forgiven of his blasphemy against the Son of man .Today seeing the son of man, Jesus is no longer here there can be no forgiveness against the Holy Spirit not seen.
But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.Mathew16; 23
Some believers it would seem are still looking for a face to attribute the work of the lying "one". We know his voice . . ."You shall surely not die". It was inspired earthly of the devil not a doctrine of God that falls like rain.
This is all as if we did wrestle against flesh and blood the temporal seen. We must be careful how we hear what the Spirit says to the churches. Many lively stones as Christians make up the spiritual house of God as the bride of Christ.
I would think looking to put a exclusive face on the "spirit of lies" would be moving right down one of the father of lies avenues.
Trying to keep men in suspense, seeking after the things seen the temporal . Rather than walking by faith. . after the unseen eternal .
Makes me wonder according to Luke 18. When he does come on the last day, will he find faith working in those seeking after the unseen as it is written. Or as in the days of Noah seeking after experience as a oral tradition, the philosophies of men.?
1 John 2:16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
Nope.
Any and all righteousness is through the work and blood of Jesus.
Works and obedience gains favor,crowns,and warmth of heaven. Plus i feel better walking in the spirit.
Lester Roloff used to say "religion says DO"
"Walking in Jesus says DONE"
