Bible Discussion Thread

I was raised strict Protestant, and I have never heard of this, but please help me to know if I have heard from a false prophet, or if I misunderstood. I am being told of a second harvest, in which christ returns for what some are referring to as "the second harvest", in which I am told is his second return, after 2000 years, for what some are referring to as "the great reset", and that he resets the world for 1000 years before returning for the final time. Is this in any way valid? I'm confused.

Leslie this is my understanding Christ will appear for His Church the Body of Christ and gather it together thessalonians then the book of revelation where at the end all will be raised from the dead and face Gods Judgement, now remember I said thats what I understand but trust me there are a lot of different ideas on this. But remember we who believed and have been made righteous in Gods eyes are spiritually perfect, no judgement day, I.E. terminator Smiles.

LORD OF THE HARVEST

"For unsaved loved ones, it takes rock solid faith in Jesus (unmovable), to pray for the Lord of the Harvest to send laborers into the paths of your resistant relatives.

He arranges divine appointments for people to hear the gospel of Jesus Christ with the convicting power of the Holy Spirit.

They, with the Father, CREATED all we see and know. Is there anything too hard for the Lord? In REVELATION there is a scene of Jesus with a sickle, reaping the Harvest.

Get in on this! Pray for these stubborn relatives, loved ones, belligerent teenagers; even the old, the drugged up; the angry at life, everybody! Even perfect strangers.

Christ-like Love should drive you to your knees, often if not every day. Budget one hour to do serious business in your prayer life. Pray for LABORERS TO BE SENT.

This is called, love and obedience to the known will of God. Jesus is the Lord of the Harvest. Sitting at the right hand of God, making intercession for all saints. Ask and receive. Keep your faith fixed on Jesus only.

PRAY TO THE LORD OF THE HARVEST.

" Matthew 9:37

Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;

Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.

Matthew 13:30

Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into MY BARN.

Matthew 13:39

The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels."

Joel 3:13

Put ye in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe: come, get you down; for the press is full, the fats overflow; for their wickedness is great.

Mark 4:29

Leslie,Your confusion is from lack of Bible knowledge,right?In all honesty,whatever your are told,even here on this site, you need to confirm for yourself from the scriptures. God speaks to us from his word,and you have done well to come here.The 1000yrs is likely a reference to the millennial kingdom,which is yet to exist on Earth.It is not a "reset",but it is a fullfilment of a promise to the nation of Israel.

Now,more importantly,how to search the Bible for yourself at this site.In the search window you can type in any word and the site will list each instance of use.Once the page opens with the list of locations where the word is used,you can then limit the search to one of four options,all,old,new or apocrypha.In my opinion,only the first three are useful and apocrypha is very questionable as to being biblical at all.A hardcopy/book that performs,as this site,is called a concordance.Three concordances that already exist are the Strong's, Young's and Cruden's,and again my opinion is,that Strong's will suit you best,in that it is ready to further your word searches by listing references to the original languages of Hebrew and Greek.

Since you refer to yourself as "strict",I suspect that you have an opinion of salvation,that it is something you do that gets you to heaven.And since you are a sinner,as is every other person,except Jesus,you need complete forgiveness from God,to enter heaven.To become a saved person,the Bible teaches that you must trust that,in his dying on the cross,Jesus paid all your debt of sin,all your sins,past,present and future.It is by the grace of God that this is made known to you.You must speak to God,and you will,by his grace,recieve a personal understanding from him,as to what his son did for you on the cross.If he truly has forgiven you,it is for eternity.Your trust in him to save you must be sincere,and it will be tested as your old nature will resist changes he will make in you.read 2Timothy 2:15 U R in my prayers.May God bless U.
