    Why Do Both Paul and Peter refer to The Jewish Foundation of the Church as a Nation

    You guys wear this verse out and reject the Abrahamic covenant and all it's promises to the physical seed of Abraham. All your mental brilliance is lost because of your stubborn pride in your refusal to believe the word of God and to make sense of it. Abraham is never said to be Israel or even a...

    Why Do Both Paul and Peter refer to The Jewish Foundation of the Church as a Nation

    There is a book in the Bible called Lamentations. It is a book of sadness and sorrow. It is about the plight of Jerusalem and Zion during the days since God cast his people out of the land for their disobedience. God himself is sad but over time he is going to heal his great city and his great...

    Why Do Both Paul and Peter refer to The Jewish Foundation of the Church as a Nation

    Ascetic X, thank you for your thoughts on this subject but the language of Mark in Mk 9 surely shows that Jesus is equating the seventh day of the week as the visible kingdom of God. It took place after 6 days. Also he thought that a mountain represented a physical kingdom in the similitudes of...

    Why Do Both Paul and Peter refer to The Jewish Foundation of the Church as a Nation

    God has simply taken something that is common to men and used it as a pattern for a greater truth so we can understand him. I think that is wisdom. He surely isn't constrained by time but we are. So God uses the pattern in our realm to prefigure his work. So, here is an example of both a week...

    Why Do Both Paul and Peter refer to The Jewish Foundation of the Church as a Nation

    Why Do Both Paul and Peter refer to The Jewish Foundation of the Church as a Nation

    New Jerusalem is the heavenly city that comes down out of heaven (not to the earth) in the eternal state during the new heaven and the new earth. Picture a satellite city whose light lightens the earth. It is the paradise of God where the Godhead dwells and where the throne of God is. It is the...

    Why Do Both Paul and Peter refer to The Jewish Foundation of the Church as a Nation

    This post is for the purpose of helping to clarify for those who have been confused by their teachers about certain points of God's dispensational divisions between the church and the world, unsaved Israel and the Jewish remnant according to the election of grace, which is the Jewish part of the...

    Why Do Both Paul and Peter refer to The Jewish Foundation of the Church as a Nation

    ky, the feast of the Lord are prophetic in nature. I am going to record for you what God expected under the ceremonial law of Moses for the feast of first fruits. This is Pentecost (means 50).
