Predestination is a doctrine for those already saved. Not one person in scripture is predestinated to be saved.

In Christ, the believer's destination is set. Once in Christ, the believer is predestinated unto the adoption which is the redemption of the body. The Holy Spirit has sealed the believer for this future purpose.

God made a covenant with the nation of Israel, physical descendants of Jacob. He's going to fulfill that covenant. Believe it or not, it doesn't matter. The body of Christ has not replaced Israel.

And it's the truth. Christ will reign on the throne of David in Jerusalem and restore the kingdom of Israel. The cross was a mystery, hid from the beginning.

Are you in Christ? Did Christ sin? No, then you are sinless. You are righteous because he is righteous. Any other way depends upon man's righteousness. If that is true, man is doomed.

You don't believe in the spiritual kingdom of God? There is a spiritual kingdom and there is a physical kingdom.

This is replacement theology. The church has replaced God's physical people Israel. The covenant that God made with Israel is now to the body of Christ. I'm not buying that. God's physical people Israel is going to get their kingdom restored with their promised Messiah sitting on the throne...

The everlasting gospel...nothing about the d,b,r for sins. The passage literally gives us the message of the everlasting gospel. If one is living at the time of Revelation 14, you better head the preaching of this angel. You better fear God and give glory to him because the hour of judgment...

Agreed brother, but the whole meaning of that was a mystery.

They were looking for a Messiah to deliver them from their enemies. The cross was hidden. Luke 1 67 And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying, 68 Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people, 69 And hath raised up an horn...

For a NT believer, the moment a man believes the gospel, he has become justified and righteous because he has been placed in Christ. No works to earn it, and no works to justify his salvation. Should one go on to good works? Absolutely. Rewards are at stake. A believer could have all his...

Romans 4:5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. Romans 3:26 To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.

To the twelve tribes scattered abroad...the twelve tribes is Israel as a nation. James 2 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? Justified, made right before God. 22 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith...

The coming ages....the tribulation, the millennial reign of Christ, and eternity future in the new heaven and earth. These are the ages yet to come.

The disciples did not preach the cross before the resurrection. Scripture states God hid it from them. What then, were they preaching? They were preaching the gospel of the kingdom, same message Jesus was preaching prior to the cross. This message was the good news of Israel’s King and the...
