Please check back in an hour or more. Thank you for your patience!
It also made me think of Romans. It's as you say. We all have a responsibility to find the right path. I thank my God for you all, every day. And in the heart it cries Abba Father!
Strike all injustice, injustice and hatred! It is not from Our Lord!
Stay Blessed all in Jesus name, love u in Christ. Mark 13
Anybody whether he is an Arab, a Greek, a Jew, an American, a German, a Chinese, a Nigerian ...that believes in Jesus is a spiritual/ of promise/ of faith child of Abraham, that is the universal all time Church. The epistle to Galatians deals with that extensively.
Now about Israel in the final days apostole Paul deals with that in Romans 11:25-27. What he says there is that God will save Israel as a whole nation After, he says, all the nations complete their time. ( this also shows that the church will depart when that time is completed and then the time of Jews will start) When is that? During the week (7 years of the antichrist's rule on earth). (See also Daniel's prophesy about the weeks). There will be no time for a restoration of a somehow Israelitic empire. On the contrary the antichrist will be after them during the tribulation which they themselves wiil suffer big at that time and the whole thing will end up with the fight of Armageddon. Then comes the very end of this world as we know it. So what happened to that promise? My opinion ...(and i may be wrong) To understand that: 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, that is true for us christians as well. One has to stay in faith and obedience to get them. Other christians say those things were not literal but symbolic for the church. Either way there will be no another israelitic empire. God has prepared something a lot more important fot that nation. Eternal life.

We are commanded to keep Gods order of things in everything .
Guess which that is ?
Remember Jesus came to his own and they received him not .
The NT is for Jew first and the rest of the world . John 3.16
Amazing how people miss simple truth .
I'm sorry if I am misunderstanding your post, but it seems a little contradicting to me, mainly your opening remark that true believers will go through the Tribulation, and your closing remark that there will be a taking away or Rapture for all believers but it will be that they may not "endure the Wrath of God before the final destruction of the Enemy.
Can you please explain?
If it helps, Revelation 20:4 is not referring to the church, but unbelievers who were left behind. They rejected the mark of the beast after being persuaded by the angelic preaching of the gospel, and the gospel of the 144,000. They will be beheaded, but they'll be with Christ.
Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that it shall no more be said, The LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
But, The LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the lands whither he had driven them: and I will bring them again into their land that I gave unto their fathers.
Jeremiah 16:14.
Are ye not as children of the Ethiopians unto me, O children of Israel? saith the LORD. Have not I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt? and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir?
Behold, the eyes of the Lord GOD are upon the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth; saving that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, saith the LORD.
For, lo, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all nations, like as corn is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth.
All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, which say, The evil shall not overtake nor prevent us.
In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old:
Amos 9:7-11.
The tabernacle of David didn't exist during Jesus ministry, It doesn't exist now but it will exist during the Millennium.
God bless.
Just as the Holy Spirit leads us to pray, He might bring to mind Scriptures that will glorify the Father or even be the "Amen" that others in the group yearn to hear & respond to. And yet, sometimes, no specific Scripture comes to mind. And that's okay if you remain earnest & sincere in prayer. Keep storing God's Word in your heart: it may just come up at prayer-time, but certainly can be used when the evil one comes to lead you away from your love & devotion to the Lord.
Personally speaking, Scriptures flow more easily in my heart when I first come with praise & adoration to the Lord, spending some time at the first part of my devotions - enjoying His Presence (Glory), His Mercy, His Wisdom, His Majesty, His Power. Remember, "Whoso offereth praise glorifieth me", says the Lord through the Psalmist. May God's Spirit lead you sister, as you devote this special time wholly to Him, declaring His Glory, expressing your love, interceding for others.
Are we heirs of the promise? Yes.
Are we as Issac children of promise? yes. These particular promises you are referring to in " Galatians 3:17." has nothing at all to do with " Replacement theology "
Here we are talking about promises to the NATION OF ISRAEL
All through the scripture God promised to restore "THE NATION OF ISRAEL." and set up a literal kingdom here on earth.
Concerning Romans 9:6-8.
vs 6, Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For "THEY are not all Israel, WHICH ARE "OF" ISRAEL:
This verse doesn't include us Gentiles at all. At this particular junction. Paul is making a distinction between the natural seed and the spiritual seed of the natural / Kinsman offspring.
There has always been an remnant. The distinction is to show the seed is not recond on birthright alone, if so the Ishmaelites would be included.
Key verse: Romans 9:3.
Are we Paul's
kinsman in the flesh? No.
John 10:16. says there is 2 sheep folds that will come together and become one.
Israel is one of these sheep folds.
These verses doesn't apply to us.
Romans 11:1-5.
Romans 11:25-26.
Romans 11:27.
Here in Romans 11:28-30. notice the distinction in the words like "they" and "their" that shows there's 2 distinctive groups.
"As concerning the gospel, "THEY" are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, "THEY" are beloved for the fathers' sakes.
For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.
For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through "THEIR" unbelief:"
God will turn again to the NATION OF Israel.
Acts 15:14-17.
The context of my post is on a literal Kingdom here on earth and we are not the children/nation of Israel whom certain promises was given to.
God bless.
Also, whether it is coincidental or not, I took note of your moniker (EGLL), which is also the ICAO abbreviation for Heathrow Airport, London. Interesting.
I have also noticed the Laws given Moses in Deuteronomy, Leviticus, etc. about what GOD said not to eat many of those proven to causes of health problems. I know someone that changed diet & cured her diabetes.
Hopefully this is helpful
I'm looking for evangelism to come back__when people speak to each other again. Our testimonies of how we came to believe in Jesus, are valuable.
It's sort of like Jonah. He wanted to run away from Gods call on his life. Eventually he complies, and a whole nation repented.
Social media has become too violent. I'm praying for more and more Bible websites like this one, to spring up.
Luke 11:30 - For as Jonas was a sign unto the Ninevites, so shall also the Son of man be to THIS generation.
Five Crowns in Heaven:
The Imperishable Crown
The Crown of Rejoicing
The Crown of Righteousness
The Crown of Glory
The Crown of Life
The difference is, in Stephens day the crowds stoned people with actual stones. In 2022, they stone people with words. I think Jonah wasn't stoned. The story says the whole city (Google history) Repented.
We just have to figure out what 2022 looks like as far as:
In the days of Noah
In the days of Jonah
Why I cannot remember to quote his scriptures when I pray?
Deuteronomy 32:39, 2Kings 20:5,
2Chronicles 7:14,
Hopefully these are helpful

Words from the heart that ring true, Amen brother. The first thing Jesus said to the disciples when they asked Him about what He said about the temple being destroyed in Matthew 24 He said "Take heed that no man deceive you", Oh how we ignore what He said.
Anytime we study the Bible we need to keep in mind how our mind works, Satan knows. We function with our subconscious mind with little to no thought at all. Our mind is programed with traditions, teachings, and things we learn by what we see and do. They are imprinted in our minds, and when we read the Bible, this programing automatically pops in our mind and it is two steps ahead of what we are reading, seeing, or hearing.
If the new information is different from the imprint in our mind, we do not see or hear the difference because our subconscious mind blocks it. If we do not clear our mind with prayer and admit we know nothing, we cannot hear the Holy Spirit of truth, "He who have ears to hear let him hear".
What you bring up is just one part of what has been past on to the churches today. Truth is easy and simple but unless we are willing to accept it and study with a open heart and ears we will not find it.
2 Corinthians 11:3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
The word heresy, I cringe because of the thousands of believers in Jesus have been killed in the name of that word. I will watch the Missler's video.
God bless,

Galatians 3:7 "Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham."
Who are Abraham's children. Verse 7 says those who are of faith are the ones, that is us the Christians
Galatians 3:26 and 29 " 26 - For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus./ 29 -And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise."
Verses 26 and 29 say that if we are Jesus's children then we are Abraham's children as well.
Also read Romans 9:6-8 "6 -Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel: /7 - Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called./8 - That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed."
The above verses say that not all biological children of Abraham are his children, but only the children of promise. The children of promise is us, the Christians.
It is obvious that the children of faith/of promise, these are the true children of Abraham. Who are they? Christians are. Both gentiles and Jews that believe in Jesus Christ.
So the promises given from God to Abraham pass to his children who now in the NT is the Church.

The believers that has departed the Earth prior to Christ coming is with the Lord.
We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
2 Corinthians 5:8.
Philippians 1:23.
The Lord will bring them, and those raptured at his second coming.
Right after the marriage supper of the Lamb we are presented with Christ's "VISIBLE" return to this earth to execute judgment, put down evil, and set up His kingdom. He returns "with his saints.
1 Thessalonians 3:13.
Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
Revelation 1:7.
I hope this helps.
God bless.
2Thessalonians 2, Matthew 24:3-51, Mark 13:5-37,
Revelation 16,
I believe that comes from a guy named Bob Jones that said that. A few other people have said that would happen. I watched a few videos about what they call "the perfect storm".
I personally witnessed, during a hurricane years ago a tree was uprooted & floated down stream in flooding water until it was stuck up under a bridge; caused the flooding creek, to flood in reverse: because of debris that was caught by tree, limbs, roots etc. blocked the flow. Other Hurricanes have recorded winds & other causes doing that to The Mississippi River & other rivers, during past decade. These events they speak of are supposed to be major events. It however doesn't seem to be necessarily noted in scripture except for miracles that GOD used for Israelites to pass through. Exodus 14:26-29, Joshua 3:13-16, Joshua 4:7,18,23, Joshua 5:1, & Prophets: 2Kings 2:8,14,
