DoUwant2go2Heaven?;3372058 said:Let's first work on clarifying these 2 points.
1. Ezekiel 40-48 is the millennial temple. Agreed?
2. Revelation 21-22 is speaking about the eternal rest after the millennium. Agreed?

DoUwant2go2Heaven?;3372028 said:You said it my friend. You use your own free will to listen to God. I'm just the messenger, a watchman standing on the wall and blowing the trumpet. I can't force you to do anything because you have your own will. So the issue isn't about fleeing sin, it's about fleeing so that you are not consumed in the judgment. Just as lot was commanded to flee from Sodom before judgment came upon that city, so will those who hear the call to flee from Babylon likewise flee before the judgment comes.
How you respond when the time comes will be up to you. I just pray that the seeds which were planted in your heart, mind, and soul will be useful when the time comes to make an informed decision based upon the leading of the Holy Spirit in your life.
One Spliff;3372188 said:no...rev 21-22 is talkin about the 1000 year reign, after that the rest of the dead will come to life...theres no seperation really...its just a 1000 year reign for those who accepted the gospel and called on his name in the last days.
ezekiel 41-48 is the rebuilding of the third temple and the return of the prince/king david, who is the prince in ezekiel 48 otherwise ?...its obviously not christ, because the prince will be offering sacrifices.
like i said if we guna reign 1000 years with christ, then why wud we need a temple...rev 21 says that the lamb will be the temple.
alissowack;3372447 said:So is man's salvation...at our own free will?
DoUwant2go2Heaven?;3372504 said:Nope. God predestines those that are His. The Bible is clear about this. Those that are the elect, who were called out by God before the foundation of the world, will respond to and receive the gospel message of Jesus Christ at the appointed time using their own free will.
The sovereignty of God is always at work. There is nothing that God doesn't know; Past, present, and future because He encompasses all facets of time in His eternal being.
alissowack;3372573 said:Then what makes it so that man has a say in whether they choose to take heed to "the trumpet" or not? Would God be just as involved in who will listen?
DoUwant2go2Heaven?;3372589 said:Read Ezekiel 33:1-7 and you tell me what the Holy Spirit revealed to you. Seriously.
"1Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 2Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them, When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of their coasts, and set him for their watchman: 3If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people; 4Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning; if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head. 5He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him. But he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul. 6But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman's hand. "
TX_Made713;3372661 said:Heavenru still hangin in there with the IC i see. Why havent you started a church by now?
DoUwant2go2Heaven?;3372696 said:What up bro? Yeah, God is still moving in amazing ways in my life. I'm in my Masters program now at seminary, so the calling that the Lord has on my life will be realized real soon. How you been?
alissowack;3372676 said:To me, this doesn't address the potency of sin. Destroying America is not going to destroy sin...no matter who hears the trumpet. John the Baptist had Pharisees and Sadducees come to him as he questioned them as to who warned them about the coming wrath; called them a brood of vipers.
TX_Made713;3372730 said:Masters? thats pretty good. I just started the masters program at my college for information systems. I know how that is. Ive also gotten back in the bible. Im trying to live my life with God on my side...slowly gettin back close with him
DoUwant2go2Heaven?;3372737 said:Babylons destruction is just 1 piece of the prophetic picture. If you read Revelation 14 you will see that Babylon (America) falls first and then the mark of the beast comes. The Antichrist doesn't emerge until after the destruction of Babylon. So this piece is just 1 of many. All I am doing is posting relevant information for anybody who resides in this country (Babylon), so that people will have a firm grasp and understanding about 1 of the major pieces of prophetic revelation. No where have I ever said that the destruction of Babylon would eradicate sin. The opposite is actually true, sin is multiplied because of Babylon the great. Babylon has made the world CRAZY because of how it exports sin to the whole world.
Ultimately the destruction of sin will be accomplished at the 2nd advent of Jesus Christ. Amen.
DoUwant2go2Heaven?;3372463 said:1. Whats the first verse in Revelation 21:1 say my brother? Your answer will tell you how it can't be referring to the 1,000 year rule of Jesus Christ.
2. The prince spoken of in Ezekiel is David. I agree.
3. There are 2 explanations for why there will be a temple and sacrifices during the 1,000 year reign of Jesus Christ.
- The temple sacrifices will be done for a memorial.
or
- The references to the sacrifices are just symbolic language, which is not to be taken literal.
Ultimately we will find out when Jesus Christ comes to set up His kingdom.
alissowack;3372867 said:But, shouldn't the focus be on what God has done through Christ...and not whether we take heed to the signs and wonders? It sounds like you want people to believe in God based on these prophecies and not on His Gift of Salvation.
