Have the times of the gentiles ended in 1967?

[Leastofall]

Ezk 36:22 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine holy name's sake, which ye have profaned among the heathen, whither ye went.

Ezk 36:23 And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the heathen, which ye have profaned in the midst of them; and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, saith the Lord GOD, when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes.

Ezk 36:24 For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land.

Ezk 36:25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.

Ezk 36:26 A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.

Ezk 36:27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.

Ezk 36:28 And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.

Ezk 36:29 I will also save you from all your uncleannesses: and I will call for the corn, and will increase it, and lay no famine upon you.

Ezk 36:30 And I will multiply the fruit of the tree, and the increase of the field, that ye shall receive no more reproach of famine among the heathen.

Ezk 36:31 Then shall ye remember your own evil ways, and your doings that were not good, and shall lothe yourselves in your own sight for your iniquities and for your abominations.

Ezk 36:32 Not for your sakes do I this, saith the Lord GOD, be it known unto you: be ashamed and confounded for your own ways, O house of Israel.

Ezk 36:33 Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day that I shall have cleansed you from all your iniquities I will also cause you to dwell in the cities, and the wastes shall be builded.

Ezk 36:34 And the desolate land shall be tilled, whereas it lay desolate in the sight of all that passed by.

Ezk 36:35 And they shall say, This land that was desolate is become like the garden of Eden; and the waste and desolate and ruined cities are become fenced, and are inhabited.

Ezk 36:36 Then the heathen that are left round about you shall know that I the LORD build the ruined places, and plant that that was desolate: I the LORD have spoken it, and I will do it.

Ezk 36:37 Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will yet for this be enquired of by the house of Israel, to do it for them; I will increase them with men like a flock.

Ezk 36:38 As the holy flock, as the flock of Jerusalem in her solemn feasts; so shall the waste cities be filled with flocks of men: and they shall know that I am the LORD.

Wrong. The opposite is true. How in the world could you not know this?
Everyone else does.

Historical Context

The scattering of believers began in earnest following the martyrdom of Stephen, one of the first deacons of the early church. Acts 8:1-4 records, "On that day a great persecution broke out against the church in Jerusalem, and all except the apostles were scattered throughout Judea and Samaria. Devout men buried Stephen and mourned deeply over him. But Saul began to destroy the church. Going from house to house, he dragged off both men and women and put them in prison. Those who had been scattered preached the word wherever they went."

This dispersion was not merely a result of persecution but also a divine strategy for the propagation of the Gospel. The scattered believers carried the message of Christ to new regions, establishing the foundation for the global church.

Epistles to the Scattered

The New Testament contains letters addressed to the scattered believers, offering them encouragement and instruction. The Apostle Peter writes to the "elect exiles of the Dispersion" in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia (1 Peter 1:1), urging them to live holy lives and to endure suffering with hope. James also addresses his epistle to "the twelve tribes scattered among the nations" (James 1:1), providing practical guidance for living out their faith amidst trials.

Don't think so...70 AD took care of that.😉

 

[Leastofall]

And the point is?

Well said! The number of Zionist on this site that discourage discussion without going into some sort of drivel about it being linked to Christianity.

Zionism no different to Scientology or astrology. It has no basis in the Jewish faith. As Christians we should looma t Christianities teachings not another faiths.

Nonsense

You're thinking carnal. Think spiritual

 

[Follower777]

Follower, Do you actually believe there is a future literal 1000yrs yet we will be heaven? sorry if Im not understanding, If I read your last paragraph literally we will be in heaven for a 1000yrs while earth is destroyed for a 1000yrs So how do you see what will be happening on earth during this 1000yrs?

Let me first apologize to you AND everyone else that I've commented to, here in this forum, for my contentious attitude, being my lack of humility, meekness and loving kindness. ( Christ likeness ) ... I pray daily for the Lord to give me repentance from my selfishness = lack of Love in the physical world, and my self-righteousness in the spiritual realm = spiritual selfishness (self-love). I've come to learn that ALL selfishness, literal & spiritual, is "anti-Love" = sin = ( me thinks, that our propensity for selfishness (sin) has been inherited from Adam and Eve Gen 3:6 ) ~~~ Matt 22:37-39, John 15:10, Gal 5:16-17 etc.etc,etc ~~~ (Forgive me please, for my sinful nature, my lack of Christ and His Righteousness, I pray)~~~

1000 literal years, in a literal / spiritual Heaven, then afterwards, New Jerusalem returning to the New Earth ( I'm wanting a BIG garden and small varied orchard, on my country home

In 2 Peter 3, it states, "But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day" "The Way" I see human history, (spiritually and literally) it been about 2000 years from, Eden to Abraham, 2000 years from Abraham to Jesus, and now about 2000 years from Jesus to these End Times. Looking at the "Creation Week" God took 6 days to make the "week" with the Seventh Day being set aside as holy, the Lord's Day, for us to rest, communing with God, just as this coming 1000 years, in heaven, will be, us FINALLY being married to Jesus, again, a spiritual union, We the body, Jesus the head. same as the institution created in Eden, of the "literal" "physical" spiritual, marriage, between Adam & Eve. The other institution initiated in Eden, being the 7th Day Sabbath. Heaven will be our reunion, to a state of reality, as it was in Eden, our Righteousness of Christ character, relating again, with The Father, The Son and this time with, all the other saints. ( I pray to see my Grandma Minni, Family & Friends again Hallelujah !! ... but I rabble in blessed faith and hope

Okay so ~~~ "The Truth" Being how I LOVE my God the way I do... I'm so happy and blessed, remembering and keeping the Holy 7th Day Connection, with my God. You hear it said sometimes, of the gospel plan, being "From Eden to Eden" We were kicked out of Eden for believing and siding with Lucifer, now we've been given a second chance, by the Grace of God, through His Son, paying the penalty of our disobedience, so that we NOW may have a second chance to be obedient to God's Kingdom's Law, being His Character, LOVE , giving God Authority, ... His Righteously due Honor and Glory, rather than continuing to give the Prince of the world, authority, ... by having Satan's," I,I,I Isaiah 14:13:14 spirit", which is enmity with my God. "But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.” Joshua 24:15

Rev. 14:7 "Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters." ~~~ echos the Sabbath Commandment and our NEED to remember and KEEP that HOLY Connection, to be a child of God, able to inherit a place in heaven, with The Father and The Son. "The Life" Eternal !! Amen !!

The Adventist view: of the 1000-year millennium (spoken of in Revelation 20)

1. The Earth Will Be Desolate During the Millennium

The earth will be "desolate" and "void" during the millennium. This is when Satan is bound to a ruined earth with no one to tempt. ( He's bound by chains of circumstance )

“The whole earth appeared like a desolate wilderness. Cities and villages, shaken down by the earthquake, lay in heaps. Mountains moved out of their places, leaving large caverns. Ragged rocks, thrown out by the sea or torn out of the earth itself, scattered all over its surface... The earth in a state of chaos, the prison house of Satan for one thousand years”.

• Revelation 20:1-3 – Satan is bound in the “bottomless pit,” symbolizing a desolate earth.
• Jeremiah 4:23-26 – “I beheld the earth, and lo, it was without form, and void... and all the cities thereof were broken down.”
• Isaiah 24:1, 3, 19-20 – The earth is made “empty,” “utterly broken down,” and “removed like a cottage.”

2. The Saints Will Be in Heaven With Christ

The righteous will be taken to heaven at Christ’s second coming to reign with Him during the 1000 years. There will be a glorious scene of the redeemed before God's throne, far removed from the chaos of earth.

• Revelation 20:4 – "And they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years."
• John 14:2-3 – Jesus promises to take His followers to His Father’s house (heaven).
• 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 – The saved are “caught up... to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.”

3. The Wicked Are Dead and the Earth Is Silent

The wicked remain dead during the millennium and the earth is left in utter silence and ruin.

“The people of God will be safe in the Holy City... The wicked are dead... Satan has no subjects to tempt or deceive. The desolate earth is his prison house for one thousand years”.

• Revelation 20:5 – “But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished.”
• Isaiah 24:6 – “Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate.

4. The Millennium Is a Time of Judgment in Heaven

During the millennium, the saints review the judgment records of the wicked in heaven, not on earth.

• Revelation 20:4 – “And judgment was given unto them.”
• 1 Corinthians 6:2-3 – “Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world?... Know ye not that we shall judge angels?”

“During the thousand years between the first and the second resurrection, the judgment of the wicked takes place. The saints... will sit in judgment, and the cases of all the wicked dead will be reviewed” (The Great Controversy, p. 660). ~~~ The second most influential book that I've ever read. Recommended for an understanding of the history of the The Church, from the destruction of the second temple to the Second Coming of The Way, The Truth & The Life.
Blessing Brother..

 

[Leastofall]

And the point is?

The point is the regathering of Israel is not political but supernatural.....God's hand. God ask can a nation be born in one day?
The regathering tells us what time it is. What events are to take place. How close we are to the rapture or second coming what ever you believe to be first or only.
It starts a count down.
The lawlessness has started . The falling away has started. Just as Paul mentions in thes.
Anti semitisim is world wide.
History may have recorded such events in the past but the regathering changes everything.
I fear that not to distance is the Ezekiel 38 war.
The prophets have spoken. God will do it. This is the testament of truth in God word.
The time of the Gentiles are all most done.

 

[Leastofall]

You're thinking carnal. Think spiritual

My friend in all sincerity... that's where you error. Read again the prophets words I've posted. God said you will see this the nations will see these things. Is it not so?.....
This is God's testimony to man. A)l men believers and heathen alike. So you will be left with no excuse.
I agree we are to see spiritual things and to fight spiritual things not of God.
But God has chosen to use vessels and nations whose hearts only he knows for his purposes and his appointed times.
There may be a evil spirit behind it or a angel of the Lord to provoke it but God over sees it all for his purposes.

 

[ChristRoseFromTheDead]

God ask can a nation be born in one day?

That nation was born on the day of Pentecost when the holy spirit joined the sticks of Israel and Judah back together again. Denying this is unbelief.

Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which [is] in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, [even] with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand. Ezekiel 37:19​

​

But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all [ye] that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words: For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is [but] the third hour of the day. But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; Acts 2:14-16​

​

Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know: Acts 2:22​

​

Now when they heard [this], they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men [and] brethren, what shall we do? Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Acts 2:37-38​

​

Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added about three thousand souls. Acts 2:41​

 

[Follower777]

Sure; I have no opinion I believe exactly how it is written in Revelation 20, in that chronology.

In Revelation 19 Jesus returns and throws the beast and the false prophet into the lake of fire, in chapter 20 the devil is bound for a thousand years, the righteous dead are raised and rule with Christ for the 1000 years.

After the 1000 years the devil is let loose and he deceives a portion of the people, they will surround the holy city and the camp of the saints and they will be destroyed by a fire coming out of heaven. And then, as the chapter says there will be the great judgment day, the final judgment, followed by the new heaven and the new earth.

Truth is presented, in the Bible ! ~~ Your understanding of Rev. 19 & 20 is your opinion of scripture. We ALL have an "opinion", ...... It's just a matter of whether our opinions harmonizes with, and is a Holy Spirit inspired, understanding of the Truth, Jesus, The WORD. Many people, deceived by the anti-Christ spirit in this world, present a false understanding, there opinions being motivated, by their love of the world. OR, we can be enlightened by the Holy Spirit, ~~~>The Love of Christ and His Righteousness ~~~> The Way, of Truth, to Life, eternal . Hallelujah !

Your opinion, that the "the devil is bound for a thousand years, the righteous dead are raised AFTER the devil is bound, isn't supported by scripture. "

1 Thessalonians 4,16-17
16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord."

Sequence of events, chronologically, during and after, Christ's second coming, revelation 19 and 20.

“And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse…”

2. The Righteous Living are Translated – 1 Thessalonians 4:16–17

“…And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse…”
The living righteous are changed... the wicked are destroyed by the brightness of His coming.
When Christ comes the second time... the living wicked will be destroyed, = no one left on Earth, as in the Days of Noah and Sodom & Gomorrah.

5. Satan is Bound – Revelation 20:1–3
“…and he laid hold on the dragon… and bound him a thousand years.”
He is wholly cut off from his work of deception and ruin.

“…that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled…”

7. The Saints Reign in Heaven – Revelation 20:4

8. The Wicked are Resurrected – Revelation 20:5
“But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished.”
At the close of the thousand years, Christ again returns to the earth… Then the wicked dead are raised…

9. Satan is Loosed, Deceives Again – Revelation 20:7–9
“And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison…”
Satan prepares for a last mighty struggle for the supremacy… he marshals all the armies of the lost under his banner…

10. Final Destruction of the Wicked – Revelation 20:9–10
“…fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them…”
Fire comes down from God out of heaven. The earth is broken up… The wicked are burned up.

11. The Earth is Made New – Revelation 21:1
“And I saw a new heaven and a new earth…”

Have you guys thought this through? The devil is bound from deceiving the nations, what nations, if there are no nations and the earth is void for the whole millennium? The binding of satan is completely unnecessary and useless. One of the reasons I could never be an adventist.

Sorry but I don't see this connection at all.

 

[Leastofall]

I'm sorry my friends but unless you study the remaining feast days that have to be fulfilled you will never get the times correct.
The earth it's self is to be restored not void.
All the nations that are left pilgrim to Jerusalem once a year to worship the king of kings. If not they are cursed.
It all has to do with the remaining feast days that are the Lords.

 

[Follower777]

The lawlessness has started . The falling away has started. Just as Paul mentions in thes.
Anti semitisim is world wide.
History may have recorded such events in the past but the regathering changes everything.
I fear that not to distance is the Ezekiel 38 war.
The prophets have spoken. God will do it. This is the testament of truth in God word.
The time of the Gentiles are all most done.

Amen Brother !!
I believe you are seeing scripture thru the "spiritually lens" of Biblical interpretation, Gal 5:16-17, as we are led by the Holy Spirit, to understanding and sanctification. PTL ! ~~~ Below is the "spiritual" understanding of Isaiah 66:8 ~~~

Rapid Final Work
The final movements of God's work will happen quickly—“a nation born in one day.”

• Isaiah 66:8 – “Shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.”
• Romans 9:28 – “For He will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth.”
• Revelation 18:1 – “And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.

2. Zion's Travail – The Church Bringing Forth Converts
Zion represents the church. The travail refers to earnest prayer and labor that results in spiritual birth (conversion).

• Galatians 4:26 – “But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.”
• Isaiah 54:1 – “Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear... for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife.”
• Isaiah 66:7–9 – “Before she travailed, she brought forth... Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth?”

3. Pentecostal Outpouring as a Type of the Final Revival
The day of Pentecost is a type of the latter rain experience that fulfills Isaiah 66:8.

• Joel 2:28–29 – “And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out My spirit upon all flesh...”
• Acts 2:1–4 – “And when the day of Pentecost was fully come... they were all filled with the Holy Ghost.”
• Hosea 6:3 – “He shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.”

4. Fulfillment through the Loud Cry
The loud cry, accompanied by the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, leads to a global harvest—a nation born at once.

• Revelation 18:1–4 – The angel cries mightily, calling God’s people out of Babylon.
• Matthew 24:14 – “And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world... and then shall the end come.”
• Isaiah 60:1–3 – “Arise, shine; for thy light is come... and the Gentiles shall come to thy light.”

5. Mission Fulfillment in the Latter Rain
Thousands will be converted quickly when the Holy Spirit is poured out on the church.

• Acts 2:41 – “Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.”
• Acts 4:4 – “Howbeit many of them which heard the word believed; and the number... was about five thousand.”
• Isaiah 66:19–20 – The remnant go to the nations to declare God’s glory and bring an offering of Gentiles.

The spiritual application of Isaiah 66:8 as describing the miraculous, Spirit-led birth of God’s final remnant movement in a short, powerful period of time, being spiritual Israel, the remnant church, and her movement of Rev 14 ~~~ Blessings Brother

I'm sorry my friends but unless you study the remaining feast days that have to be fulfilled you will never get the times correct.
The earth it's self is to be restored not void.
All the nations that are left pilgrim to Jerusalem once a year to worship the king of kings. If not they are cursed.
It all has to do with the remaining feast days that are the Lords.

BTW .. Reading and understanding Bible prophecy, as well as "shadows & types", there is NO mention of national Israel—as an ethnic or political entity, during these end times, that will be restored to the land of Canaan or Palestine in fulfillment of prophecy. This belief is commonly held by some dispensationalist groups, but it is not support in a Holy Spirit indwelling understanding of scripture, as "Spiritual Israel" . Can't have it both ways ... The God's Holy Spirit DEMANDS walking ( understanding ) in the spirit rather than the flesh, ...

If you are Christ's, He will impart, imbue His Holy Spirit, Christ's Spirit, within you, being born again, in the Spirit, and you won't be LITERALIZING EVERYTHING, walking in the world, like Amos 8, etc, etc, etc, etc etc, etc. ..to your own destruction. Please pray for the Holy Spirit !!

Are you saying Jesus comes twice.

He came at His first coming, he will returning SOON, at His Second Coming, ( But he doesn't touch Earth) .. We (the Church) go to meet Him, "in the air". Then after the 1000 yrs, with Him in heaven, the saints AND Jesus, will return for the resurrection of the wicked dead, and the short battle, with them and Satan, till they are forever destroyed.

He will have come three times, the last time, permanently, to dwell with the Father, and the saint's in the New Jerusalem and New Earth.. Amen !!
