The Church is the Temple of God in the New Covenant, Paul transferred the imagery of the priesthood and Daily Sacrifice to the church even while the literal Temple in Jerusalem was still standing. The Church is "the Temple of God" (1 Cor. 3:16-17; 6:19; 2 Cor. 6:16; 2 Thess. 2:4; Eph. 2:21). Its...

So you labeled my direct rebuttal of a hermeneutic that doesn't consider the context when interpreting symbolic language, or doesn't consider Christ's Deity and knowledge of Future events, "junk". Some reject Christ's use of the word "church", claiming a Jew would never talk that way to Jews...

Relevant Scriptures: I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. (Phil. 4:13 NKJ) Eph 3:16 that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, Eph 6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in...

List the items that make it a "junk post." Otherwise you have ended discussion, not advanced it.

You assume "Holy Place" is the Temple, when the NT says its the Church. I reject the hermeneutic Christ didn't know the future, that He would never speak of "the church": "And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail...

The latest enemy of Israel to fall may be China. In 1976 Deng Xiaoping opened up China ushering in free market reforms that lifted billions out of poverty and made China a superpower. But Xi Jinping reversed any liberation of the Chinese people and set China on a course of total domination of...

Good verse, here is another: 8 "For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways," says the LORD. 9 "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts. 10 "For as the rain comes down, and the snow from...

Christians throughout the earth are being horribly tortured for their faith, even burned alive. I was wondering if I would pass the test and recalled this verse: No temptation (3986 πειρασμός peirasmos) has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow...

I think that unlikely. Its against human nature the disciples etc. didn't write it down immediately, even before Christ's crucifixion. But not one jot or tittle (of meaning) is lost from God's Word, that can't happen before its fulfilled which means it will never happen: "For assuredly, I say...

Stringing scriptures together doesn't advance sincere dialogue about truth.

Paul doesn't call the literal Temple the Temple of God, that he reserves for the Church where God's Spirit dwells. Christ's prediction of the Temple's destruction as one of the signs of the end, implies it remains desolate until the Jews say "blessed is He..." 38 "See! Your house is left to...

My premise Scripture is God-breathed. That invalidates your point. Even "if" (I think Christ said the words when speaking to His audience) God added them to their written form later, Its in God's Word and for present day readers. I don't have loops, I have God breathed Scripture and His...

My premise is the Holy Spirit (& The Word of God Jesus) wrote these words after the event, and added the words in brackets. Either Christ did say them as He spoke, or He thought them and this is included in our text. Therefore, the linear aspect doesn't change my premise the words are there to...

We agree totally. I'll mark this incredible event in my calendar! It does seem like seeds are breaking ground that soon will be full grown. People will trace the beginning of these events, as starting in our generation, including those that eventually go from good to bad. The first paves the...

I don't agree. Nothing semantically or thematically connects the two contexts, they are referring to completely different things. Labeling what the foolish women did, as the same the wise do in the end time prior to Jesus' coming, is like calling fire, water.

Let God be true but every man a liar. As it is written: "That You may be justified in Your words, And may overcome when You are judged." (Rom. 3:4 NKJ) If I judged your claim to divine knowledge, by your interpretation's content, I would reject it because it does not follow the principle...

Excellent points. The best possible answer to "how can we know" was given by Jesus: 32 "Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near. 33 "So you also, when you see all these things, know that it is...

We agree over 90%, disagree about "seal up" in this text. I agree the wording is to be "sealed up", not added to. But in context the suggestion is made "critical thinkers" will compare end time events, and "unseal" the words: 4 "But you, Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book until the...

I cannot agree with your interpretation. I believe in "sola scriptura", and the premise "scripture interprets scripture" is a organic function of that belief. Your interpretation is "subjective", it doesn't cite scripture to interpret the symbols used in Revelation 13. In fact, it ignores...

More proof Trump is instrumental to end time events. Adonikam the Son of Destruction Antichrist will rule over the revived Byzantine Roman Empire (parts of it). Trump got Nato countries to bulk up their defense spending to 5% of their GDP. This sets the stage when the Beast, who first appears...
