Here's what I found to back up Malachi message about the "day of the Lord" (29X) from OT to NT. After these verses there's more interesting words God made me focus on as well. So begin our study ( if anybody willing to read) with these verses but do not forget to read the entire chapter or even before and after the chapter for any connecting relevance:
The Lord's vengeance and the year of recompenses for the controversy of the Zion.
Isaiah 2:12; 13:6; 13:9; 34:8
Jeremiah 46:10
Lamentations 2:22
Ezekiel 13:5; 30:3
Joel has spoken about the sun darkened and the moon into blood as reiterates in Acts 2:20
Joel 1:15; 2:1; 2:11; 2:31; 3:14
We pause and pray. It seems the day of the Lord is a great and very terrible day. I pray that ALL will be saved today's Bible study.
Amos 5:18; 5:20
Obadiah 1:15
Zephaniah has spoken that there are people may be saved who seek the righteousness of God
Zephaniah 1:7-8; 1:14; 1:18;2:2-3
Zechariah 14:1
1 Corinthians 5:5
2 Corinthians 1:14
I thank God for Paul that we who are saved will know perfectly when this day would be even if it comes as a thief in the night as mentioned in ( 2 Peter 3:10)
1 Thessalonians 5:2
That is why I think we who truly believes God and have done God's will more likely not experience this day. So we pray earnestly that ALL may be saved. Happy reading.
Hi Eric. It's my understanding that in Jeremiah 46:11,19,20,24 where the 'daughter of Egypt, virgin daughter, fair heifer' are mentioned, they speak of only Egypt, as a land that up to this time had never been conquered.
But Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon would come during the reign of Jehoiakim of Judah, & Egypt would be delivered into Babylon's hands. Jeremiah prophesied this a few years prior to the arrival of Nebuchadnezzar, in 605 BC. Jeremiah 46:2 speaks of the battle being in Carchemish, which was in present-day southern Turkey. Apparently, Egypt had rule over that city & that's where Babylon met Egypt in battle. Ezekiel also mentions this battle in chapter 30 (if you want to read ahead from your present studies).
So, the 'virgin daughter of Egypt' implies the unconquered state of the land Egypt & therefore the 'daughter of Egypt' would be all those in Egypt awaiting their fate (i.e. the take-over of Babylon) as the battle at Carchemish would be lost & they would become vassals of Babylon. You're doing a good job with your studies, Eric.
Richard, may CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding.
I DON'T BELIEVE the scriptures can contradict themselves.
There are hundreds of places in the scriptures that say ALL will worship GOD.
They can not worship God if they are in Hell.
In Ezekiel 5 and Zachariah 13 it says a third will be brought through the fire; Revelation 9:18 says a third are killed by fire, smoke and brimstone. These have to be the same third as in Ezekiel and Zachariah because verse 20 says the rest repented not. This same third is the ones in Revelation 8.
Revelation 19 The whole chapter is about the ones called to the marriage supper. Before we can come to the supper we have to be cleansed. We are cast into the lake of fire (vs 20). We have our flesh destroyed (vs 21). God is no respector of persons. Have we ever been fearful, unbelieving, liars. Revelation 21:8 says all these will have their part in the lake of fire. Did not Christ have victory over DEATH AND THE GRAVE Revelation 20:14 says DEATH AND THE GRAVE were destroyed by the lake of fire.
I BELIEVE ALL THINGS HAVE AN APPOINTED TIME
Ecclesiastes 3
I believe ALL things are by the will of God; good and bad. His will is always carried out by man; but THE WORKS ARE OF GOD. Therefore GOD will have mercy on ALL; but in HIS appointed TIME.
Jeremiah 2:19 Thine own wickedness shall CORRECT THEE ......
Jeremiah 46:28 ......but I will not make a full end of thee, but CORRECT THEE in measure; yet will I not leave thee wholly UNPUNISHED.
Psalms 94:10 He that chastiseth the heathen, shall he not CORRECT? ......
FOR MEDITATION: If the damned have a natural body at their resurrection; literal fire will kill them in a few seconds. If they are resurrected with a glorified body: literal fire can't hurt them.
SPIRITUAL FIRE CAN hurt both; natural and glorified.
28 above. Fear thou not, O Jacob my servant, saith the LORD: for I am with thee; for I will make a full end of all the nations whither I have driven thee: but I will not make a full end of thee, but correct thee in measure; yet will I not leave thee wholly unpunished. ( 2018; GOD still build-up and tear-down, release HIS wrath or have MERCY. WOW! WOW! WOW!
Why are the ancient words and dealings of God in ancient times and long past peoples recorded in the Book of God? That we may read and hear of them and learn to fear the LORD our God, so that we do not as our wicked ancestors did to defy the LORD's commandments, and provoke Him with their sinning till He was left no choice but to take them all away in His wrath. His Word is eternal.
the servant of Jacob is an ordinary man Messianic of the loins of Judah who has known who the man of perdition is from his first office[was] then removed[was not] returning by smooth words[was again]31 March 2009 without the honour of kingship as he lost the election but promised to bring Peace- he lied.His name/ number is 666 in Hebrew counting-gematria.I have spoken publically about this man who magnifies himself equal to the commander of the host i.e. Jesus Christ-king of the Jews.I believe the last week started from his return; concluding 31 March 2016 which is time[God measures in days-24 hours] times [24 hours] & X 1/2 divided time[God divides into 70 weeks of 7; 1/2 one is 3.5years]=24 x24 x3.5=2016a.d. the one time scale you will understand as 'no man shall know the month day or hour' but 'I will says YHWH' reveal then WHEN [ Dan 12,7] at endtime-now.I have been called a 'mental case' for my view but in light of the fact I speak on behalf of a man who says He is the son of God & even YHWH incarnate[I believe Him] I am not so crazy.I am Isaiah 46,11.

Are you calling Yeshua (Christ) the Anti-christ? That is what it seems by your post, or am I misunderstanding something?
Are you Orthodox by any chance?
