Again thanks for your reply.
We're in agreement with the blessings of Abraham to all people by faith.
But we are in disagreement that the keeping of the law binds those promises. Galatians 3:17 says otherwise.
You mentioned Matthew 19:28.
Now quoting you concerning judas.
Your quote:
"Remember that Jesus said to all 12 apostoles, including Judas, that they will sit on thrones to judge the 12 tribes of Israel. Did that come true for Judas? No, because Judas at the end walked another way. What is then happened to that promise given to Israel? It was gone as soon as they crucified Jesus and took some other way. God's promises are never unconditional,"
End quote.
Judas didn't catch Jesus by surprise and he was prophesied to betray Jesus in the old testament. And early on in John 6:70.
Take a look at the verse you referred to.
"And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have FOLLOWED ME, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel."
Several things here.
Jesus sitting on his throne doesn't depend on his disciples following him. If so it wouldn't be still expected after Christ was crucified, as seen here in Acts 15:14-17. and elsewhere in scripture after the crucifixion.
Jesus says That ye which have FOLLOWED ME. A desciple is one that follows one's teachings . Does that sound like Jesus?
When were they sent out with the power and influence of the Holyspirit? After Jesus resurrection and after the death of Judas. Paul was born out of due season. There's your twelve.
Concerning 1949. yes they're in the land but is Christ sitting on David's throne?
They won't behold him as a nation until they say blessed is he that comes in the name of the Lord. And is the lion laying down with the Lamb? Is the devil chained a thousand years? None of the Millennium prophecies have been fulfilled. See Isaiah 65:19.
God bless.
Up at the top is the SEARCH BOX. Links for all books of the Bible is below that. for Bible subject only
Example:
You can put the word 'Atonement' in the Search box and hit the arrow >
The engine will fetch every scripture that contains that word. You can sort the list; choose OT or NT only; and the engine places the list in book order.
With DATES OR HISTORY, you'll have to go on GOOGLE. Type it in like this:
"Atonement, history".
You have to use ancient names from ancient maps.
By using all the search options, you'll learn some really awesome information. If search doesn't fetch anything try wording it differently.
If it fetches 5,000 verses; try wording it another way or just look at only OT or NT verses.
Look around on this whole website to see what's in it. If you get lost, just back out and come back in. Curious is good.
The location of the COMMENTARY BOX is below the search box. Touch a scripture and it will highlight Yellow. Scroll down slowly.
I like: BIBLEHUB on Google. It has many commentaries, to compare with.
It was custom not to record female names unless they had a story in the Bible.
On Gods unconditional promises
God can't be taken by surprise, so when he swear by himself and confirms it by a oath he's not putting himself in jeopardy. He's going to perform it. He depends on himself not us.
His conditional promises is well recognized in scripture. You see some concerning Israel in Deuteronomy 28.. And this didn't take God by surprise the Messiah was ordained to come before the foundation of the world.
God bless.
God called out a Gentile and made a unconditional covenant with him and confirmed it with a Son. The Child of promise. And we're children of the same promise.
It has nothing to do with Israel or any other people inability to keep the law. So why would God void his Promises to Israel and give those promises to another gathered people who cannot keep the law.
See Galatians 3:17-18.
And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.
For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.
Here is what's being challenged.
Hebrews 6:13-19. Touching this unconditional covenant I believe you see it performed in a unconditional manner in Genesis 15. when God put Abraham to sleep and performed it by himself.
We are joint heirs in that promise.
" Galatians 4:28."
Some lay it on Israel to initiate Gods promise or it will be taken away is in the same group that says you can loose your salvation.
So the Church has not taken over the promises to Israel,
The Church also is not spiritual Israel. And the Church is not the Israel of God.
God fulfilled his promises of the first coming of Christ and he will fulfill the many promises of Christ second coming and set up His literal Millennium kingdom here on Earth.
Thank you and God bless.
God speaks to us through His Word, quickened to us by His Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit will lead us into all truth. It is safe for us to let the Word of God be the 'ruler', the 'measuring line', by which we walk, because it will keep us right and in line with the Lord! There are times we may get thoughts in our hearts, kind of like a 'still, small voice'; God can 'lay something on our hearts' BUT, anything we think we hear we must line up with God's Word. Our natural hearts, God says, are deceitful above all things and desperately wicked! We must not lean on our own understanding, but judge every thought by God's Word.
To fear God mean to 'reverence' God deeply. This godly fear grows as we read God's Word. His Word shows us how glorious He is, how mighty He is, how powerful He is, how truthful He is, how faithful He is, how kind He is, how merciful He is, how gracious He is, how righteous He is, how compassionate He is, how just He is, etc. etc.!!! To know God is to love Him and fear Him, i.e., to stand in awe of His splendid majesty, and submit to His sceptre, and give Him all the glory! Amen!
Grace and blessings to you!k
if you have a Jew father and a strange woman that child is a mongrel, Vice versa!
This is all based of Scriptures . Esau can only reproduce with His woman of his lineage for the child to be considered a full blown Edomite .
Mongrel is a mixed race of people.
The mongrels of Whom GOD has MERCY N GRACE for can come back in the Third generation both sets of grandparents from each side paternal and maternal matters.
That's a precepts of man doctrine that there is no such thing as mixed the Bible say other. The mongrels is a mixed race.
Rape n mixed marriages took place in Babylon captivity.
The condition of the church, the condition of souls, has been a burden on my heart for years. If the Lord sees fit to let me see this coming fall, I will have been saved 39 years. What things were like all those years ago, and what they are like now are so different in so many ways.
What I shared earlier comes from observing a general decline take place over the decades. Of course, I can't paint with too wide of a brush; there will always be a true remnant reserved unto the Lord. I praise Him for that! Yet, I have to say, it has been shocking to see what has happened in 'Christendom' generally speaking.
We must get back to Jesus. It is ALL about Jesus. Paul said it the best in Phil. 3, Suze -
8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,
9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:
10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;
Jesus is all in all. Nothing else is even a close second...or at least, that is the way He deserves it to be in our lives. May He help us and grace us to walk worthy of Hm more and more!
God bless you, Suze!
How are you feeling? I hope by now you're able walk a lot better, and use your hand better - and that you feel better all over! :)
You've been in my heart and prayers! You and your family have been in my prayers! :)
Blessings, dear sister!
To, work out your own salvation with fear & trembling : Please read in context Ephesians 2, whole chapter Matthew 25:31-46, Matthew 7, Ephesians 6:11-18, 1Peter 1, whole chapter,
Hopefully these are helpful
Jeconiah who was later called coniah was Zedekiahs nephew.
Zedekiah was the last to sit on David's throne.
Interesting story on coniah in Jeremiah 22.
Hoshea was the last to reign in Israel.
See 2 Kings 17:1-18.
Jeremiah 20:1-2, Jeremiah 21:1-2, king Zedekiah, Jeremiah 22, Jeremiah 24:1, Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim King of Judah, Jeremiah 25:1-3, 4th yr. of Johoiakim son of Josiah king of Judah . Jeremiah 32:1-2, Jeremiah 34:1-7,
Prophetic promise: Jeremiah 23:3-7, Jeremiah 30:3-4, Jeremiah 31, Jeremiah 33:7-17,
Jeremiah 29, note Jeremiah 29:1-4,
Daniel was taken into captivity as young boy, Daniel 1:1, Daniel 9:1-2, Jeremiah 29:10, but looks to have returned in Ezra 8:2
Note: Jeremiah 37:1-3, king Zedekiah instead, Coniah only mentioned here & Jeremiah 22:24,28, not in Isaiah or other Books in Bible of this account, including the Books of Kings, nor the Books of Chronicles.
Hebrews 5, Hebrews 6, Hebrews 7,
Hopefully these are helpful in your study
He is still a full human and fully God in one person. The Holy Spirit is not Jesus, nor is the Spirit the Father, nor is Jesus the Father.
Rather we worship a Godhead of three distinct Persons that are a union in one Being.
Men AND women were believers and of Jesus before Pentecost and gathered in the upper room with the twelve disciples.
And if husbands and wives were there together, I wonder where all of their children were? Possibly with them in the Upper Room.
They did not have "child care" then. Just something that makes me think.
Thank you for sharing this with us. I found it to be very good reading. Something I wanted to share, and I don't mean to throw a twist of any sort in what's been said by all here, but I find it very interesting that back in Genesis Chapter 12, when Abraham received the promise of God in Genesis 12:3, "I will bless them that bless thee, and curse them that curse thee, and in you shall all the families of the earth be blessed," it is interesting that when he received that promise, he wasn't Jewish. He was a Gentile. He was called out of the Ur of the Chaldees. He came into Canaan, and he's still Gentile!
Just thought I'd throw that out there, no particular reason, just something I find interesting!
God was never created. He is self-existent and eternal, never having a beginning. He needs nothing outside of Himself to exist or have life.
This is hard for our finite, creaturely minds to truly understand. Nothing caused God to Be. He is I WILL BE WHO I WILL BE.
