"Likewise in the 1000 years the believers who died lived and reigned with Christ, is it the same thousand years satan is bound? If so, how can the souls of the dead be reigning with Christ in heaven when Christ is (supposedly) reigning with men here on earth in literal jerusalem in the middle...

Yep, it is, however, the O.P. talks about that Thousand-Year-Reign of Christ as being, "The Thousand Year Reign of Christ on the Earth." And I suppose we could say that your religion allows what you said there, as if "He will on Earth...during the Millenial Reign, but what is it about those...

Amen. The unregenerate have no right not to repent and trust in the Person and Work of Jesus as the Only Savior, unless by 'right' you mean 'priveledge' or 'Spiritual Enablement'. The are to still be positively Commanded, with their refusal still bringing Glory to God. You can say God is the...

THE TWO PHASES OF GOD'S WILL: "We have said that God Saves all He Chooses or Wills to Save. "On the other hand, God "Commandeth all men every where to Repent" (Acts 17:30). "God has also Commanded that the Gospel be preached to every creature (Mark 16:15), and the Gospel is God's General...

The use of the word 'sheep' is for the purpose of making an illustration. It is a figure of speech. Jesus' Appointed Ministry was to the house of Isreal at that time and those Jews were referred to by Him as being 'Sheep', but what about the 'Sheep', in John 10:16, which Jesus talked about as...

I can't see in there where you say,, God "fitted them". I see where when God Created Adam, that put man in the position to have the possibility to sin, since God couldn't have made Adam Immutable,, which is a None Communicable Attribute of God. So, with Adam there being capible of choosing to...

He endured them while they were sinning AND they were "fitted for destruction". And then, where are we? Does it say, "God fitted them"? Bam. I have a few words I can put together to mount my best argument in favor of...? "the lost soul's own sins that they are responsible for having...

To further clarify this: " I understand by "vessels of wrath” vessels which are destined to be objects of wrath, or vessels to be filled up with Gods wrath (Isa. 51:20). In I Thessalonians 5:9 Paul said: "For God hath not Appointed us to wrath, but to obtain Salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ.”...

Tt That is as accurate and God-Honoring a statement as I have ever seen. I know. JD731 said "most". A faithful translation, initiated with the understanding of The Divine Origin of The Bible, by Saved translators seeking God, with the process of comparison, comparing reliable...

I thought that's what I'd get. Another place where you "allow" the Bible to say something and now, God Himself to do something, based exclusively on you and what you have decided to say that it is THE WAY IT GOES, when The Bible, of course, isn't the one teaching this reasoning of yours and...

"In the Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard, some laborers work all day and others work parts of the day, but they are all paid the same wage. Those who labored for the whole day complain, while those who worked shorter periods are thankful. "The owner of the vineyard tells the complainers...

"...God hath from the Beginning Chosen you to Salvation..." “According as He hath Chosen us in Him before the Foundation of the World..." "Since this Doctrine of God Eternally Choosing an Elect people According to His Good Pleasure is so clearly Revealed in the Bible, it is presumptuous to...

"If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: "but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you." John 15:19. 4 "Knowing, brethren beloved, your Election of God. 5 "For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but...

"Dead" = "lost."

Of all people, Scofield came through on this one. "First, what do we mean by "Election"? Perhaps no better statement of it is found than that which is presented in the Scofield Bible. "Election is, (1) The Sovereign Act of God whereby certain are Chosen from among mankind for...

"We note the foreordination has the same effect as election, and is the same in meaning, but it concerns events as well as people. "Predestination is explained in the notes below. "Calling means the bringing to manifestation that (or those) which has (or have) been elected and...
