God created the cosmos. God gave limits to our seasons and habitat. God is now calling everyone to turn to him through his Messiah Jesus before judgment day.
how i long to see the two houses together again, the kingdom restored!
but thus says the Lord: it's not by might and not by power, but by my Spirit (zech4.6).
theyre doing this in mexico as well:
- curp biometrica (biometric unique population registration key), deployed last year, ot yet mandatory.
- medicare ids, this year, mandatory.
- cellphone number registration, this year, mandatory.
this dude xD
you know of Jesus bc his followers left their written testimony that Jesus is tbe Messiah, which in context entails he is the rightful heir to the throne of king david.
King David fucked his best friends wife and then killed him to get away with it. His son raped his daughter and he didn’t punish him which led to a righteous revolt against his evil.
If he lived in Florida he would be doing life. Would you let king David babysit your kids?
He circumcised men after he murdered them. He was a serial killer cannibal.
There’s a reason they HATED Jesus. Jesus said that righteousness and justice had nothing to do with blood and force. Jesus was right.
One man with God is the majority. King David is only revered by really sick people in my opinion. I think there’s a very strong argument that Jeffery dahmer was a much better person
it's true for the other position as well: we don't really know if God agrees with israelis taking the land by force. imo he doesn't; he clearly says to zechariah, 'not by strength and not by power, but by my Spirit' (4.6). imo God is allowing their ambitions to humble them later.
"It is impossible that the reestablishment of Israel in 1948 was from God because the Jewish people reject Christ, and God would never fulfill promises to a people who reject Him."
I understand the reasoning, but I would caution against being so confident in that claim.
Paul reminds us in Romans 9:15:
I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.
God is not bound. He is free to accomplish His purposes in His way and in His timing.
If God is restoring Israel as part of His prophetic plan leading to the return of Yeshua and the future salvation of Israel, we should be very careful not to declare, "That must not be from God because they reject Christ."
nephesh (hebrew translated as 'soul') means the union of ruach and body, the being. that's why it is written 'living soul', a nephesh with life.
i think dying and going to heaven or saints interceeding from heaven is just nonsense. why the blessed hope of the resurrection then?
Souls Are Impossible - Yep, that’s right. Since you are identical to your material body it is not just unlikely that you can exist without your body, it is downright impossible! That is to say, the idea of a soul, you existing without your body is as logically incoherent as a round square. Don’t see the contradiction in the soul? That’s because you don’t respect science. You are mired in “folk psychology”. Forget about the fact that the large majority of the people in the history of the world believed in souls, forget about the fact that some of the greatest thinkers in the history of humanity believed in souls and never saw a contradiction in them, the modern materialist knows there has to be a contradiction hidden in there somewhere. Just give “science” enough time, they will find it.
when God decrees something, he means it.
however, sometimes God uses deceiving spirits so bad people believe everything's fine, tho the real decree is ruin. but sometimes the people are so so sorry that God overturns the decreed ruin.
As a Christian, how would you explain this: God says, “I the Lord have deceived that prophet” (Ezekiel 14:9), yet the Bible teaches that God cannot lie. How do you reconcile these passages?
despues vino el sincretismo de la diosa madre siempre virgen, muy prevalente en efeso y egipto, donde por cierto se encontro el mss mariano mas antiguo. esta y la veneracion a los muertos son practicas rastreables hasta mesopotamia pero prohibidas por Dios con moises.

toda institucion que se autodenomine 'la verdadera iglesia' se engaña y engaña a los demas.
los apostoles sabian que estaremos en exilio hasta que seamos reunidos con el Señor (episynagoge) en su venida (parousia).
todos nos hemos desviado de la fe dada a los santos. solo...

Para desafiar al Papa y ser desobediente, en vez de bautizarme dentro de la Iglesia Católica, me hubiera hecho protestante. Tendrán liturgia en latín pero son lo mismo que Lutero y todas sus deformaciones. Un hombre de verdad, un católico bien puesto, protege a la Santa Esposa de Cristo, no la desmiembra.
hay que leer las epistolas. los apostoles ya luchaban contra la herejia, y el Señor mismo dice en apocalipsis que ya habia lideres herejes.
despues viene victor, quien porque si, y a pesar de los intentos de ireneo, cambio la fecha de la pascua. y asi quedo en la tradicion.

When Joseph went down to Egypt, he became Egyptian in appearance, yet he remained Hebrew at heart. He looked so much like an Egyptian that when his brothers stood face to face with him, they didn’t recognize him.
To the Egyptians, his appearance was familiar. To his own brothers, he was foreign.
But that wasn’t the end of Joseph’s story. He was never destined to remain hidden behind an Egyptian identity forever.
At the appointed time, he removed what had made him unrecognizable and revealed himself to his Hebrew brothers, saying, “I am Joseph.”
It’s a beautiful foreshadowing of Yeshua. He came to His own, yet over time He became so cloaked in Gentile culture and identity that His Jewish brethren no longer recognize Him.
But the day is coming when He will reveal Himself to Israel, and the world will know Him for who He truly is.
The Jewish Messiah.
forgiveness is not all. the temple needs to be purged from sin. so, the Lamb of God fulfilled the offering of the 2 goats: one to be killed on the altar, one to carry sin outside the city.
also, to renew the covenant with unfaithful israel, the husband needed to die.
not so fast. those quotes are about exile, not foreigners. actually, God said to love the resident foreigner (deu10.19). some even made history, like tamar, rahab, caleb and ruth. the condition is both the native and the foreigner must follow the law (lev18.26).
Scripture is clear. Foreigners are a curse from God.
If your pastor or denomination approves, they don't serve God, they serve Satan.
“Your sons and your daughters shall be given to another people, while your eyes look on and fail with longing for them all day long, but you shall be helpless. A nation that you have not known shall eat up the fruit of your ground and of all your labors, and you shall be only oppressed and crushed continually.” Deuteronomy 28:32-33
“The LORD will bring you and your king whom you set over you to a nation that neither you nor your fathers have known. And there you shall serve other gods of wood and stone.” Deuteronomy 28:36
“The sojourner who is among you shall rise higher and higher above you, and you shall come down lower and lower. He shall lend to you, and you shall not lend to him. He shall be the head, and you shall be the tail.” Deuteronomy 28:43-44
“The LORD will bring a nation against you from far away, from the end of the earth, swift as the eagle flies, a nation whose language you do not understand, a hard-faced nation who shall not respect the old or show mercy to the young.” Deuteronomy 28:49-50
“Behold, I am bringing against you a nation from afar, O house of Israel, declares the LORD. It is an enduring nation; it is an ancient nation, a nation whose language you do not know, nor can you understand what they say. Their quiver is like an open tomb; they are all mighty warriors. They shall eat up your harvest and your food; they shall eat up your sons and your daughters; they shall eat up your flocks and your herds; they shall eat up your vines and your fig trees; your fortified cities in which you trust they shall beat down with the sword.” Jeremiah 5:15-17
“Your country lies desolate; your cities are burned with fire; in your sight foreigners devour your land; it is desolate, as overthrown by foreigners.” Isaiah 1:7 “And I will give it into the hands of foreigners as prey and to the wicked of the earth as spoil, and they shall profane it. I will turn my face from them, and they shall profane my treasured place. Robbers shall enter and profane it.” Ezekiel 7:21-22
“The enemy has stretched out his hands over all her precious things; for she has seen the nations enter her sanctuary, those whom you forbade to enter your congregation.” Lamentations 1:10
st paul seems to say in one of his letters that it is not those who hear the law but those who do the law whom God will declare righteous (rom2.13). so, the little conscience (innate knowledge God's truth) they have, if they listen to it, God will reckon as righteousness.

If an uncontacted man woman or child from a tribe, and they never had anyone go to them, they don't have contact with the world, and never heard of Jesus.
When they die, do they go to hell?
Why then were they born?
This is a question Christians have been asking for over a thousand years.
I Wanna hear multiple different views on the matter. I didn't grow up with religion so I'm unsure and this is a great opportunity to reflect on things that are God and that make up Him and His Will.
you need to map the seals onto the olivet discourse: the 1st reveals the spirit of antichrist; the 5th, the tribulation; the 6th, the signs in the heavens and of the Son of Man; the 7th, the day of the Lord.
I love how the Hebrew word for "manna" simply means, "What??"
This is because the Israelites didn't know what the bread was. So they named it, "What".
It sounds like an Abbott and Costello routine.
"What is this bread called?"
"What."
"The bread."
"What about the bread?"
"What is it called?"
"What!"
"The bread!"
"I said it's called 'What'."
"That's what I'm asking you!"
"What are you asking?"
"What is this bread called??"
"WHAT!!!!"
"THE BREAD!!!"
it is not "what zionists christians believe".
jer31 cannot be more clear: "i will cut a new covenant with the house of judah and the house of israel".
and paul in rom11: "a partial hardening has happened to israel until the fullness of the nations has come in".
If I'm not mistaken this is primarily what zionist Christians believe
They believe the new covenant is still all about ethnic Israel
That couldn't be further from the truth and is more proof they do not understand the new testament and new covenant
in joel3/matt25 the Lord judges the nations for how they treat israel in the hardship of exile.
the Lord said those doing God's will are his brothers; paul said gentiles partake in israel too; and jacob and peter wrote to the exiles.
this prophecy's for the multiethnic israel.
In Matthew 25, Jesus says He will come in His glory, sit on His throne, gather all nations, and separate the sheep from the goats.
The phrase all nations tells you what you are reading.
Israel is not counted among the nations. Israel is a people accounted apart. Just as the Levites were not counted in the same census as the rest of Israel, the nation of Israel is not counted as part of all nations.
Balaam understood this when he tried to curse them: “a people dwelling alone, and not counting itself among the nations.”
God says this throughout Scripture. In Leviticus 20:26, He says, “I have separated you from the peoples, that you should be mine.”
That does not mean Israel escapes judgment. It means Israel’s calling is distinct, and so are Israel’s accountability and stricter judgment.
James says teachers receive a stricter judgment. Paul says Israel was entrusted with the oracles of God. Acts 15 speaks of a yoke the Jewish people themselves struggle to bear.
Israel’s covenant calling does not erase judgment. It intensifies their responsibility with even stricter judgment, but that judgment belongs to the Messiah, not to the nations.
In Matthew 25, Jesus is speaking of the nations and how they treated “the least of these my brothers.” His brothers are the Jewish people. Even the least of the Jewish people.
What belongs to Christians is not the seat of judgment over Israel.
What belongs to Christians is our own conduct toward the Jewish people. Whether we bless or curse, show mercy or hatred. Whether we love the Messiah’s people or despise them.
Antisemitism, anti-Zionism, and anti-Judaism have no place in the Body of Messiah.
A pulpit that spreads anti-Jewish hatred is not representing Jesus. Such teachers and students may borrow the name “Christian,” but their fruit demonstrates the opposite. Disciples of Jesus are known by their love, and not just love of self while hating the People of the Book.
The Messiah of Israel does not bless those who curse the people of Israel. That path leads to destruction.
Exodus 19:5-6 Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine: and ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel
The church is Israel
1 Peter 2:9-10 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy
bro, if you truly believe that:
- stop using the 'zionist' tag, which, on one hand appeals to the mount of God, but on the other, to the same politics that persecuted paul and destroyed the temple;
- while watchfully praying and sharing the gospel, just let it run its course.
None of us "Christian Zionists" are saying that Jewish people are saved without Christ. At least I hope not. There is only one way to be saved, and that is through faith in Christ.
And we are not saying that the modern state of Israel is a bastion for biblical righteousness and never do evil things.
If there is anyone that rightly called out unsaved Israel for wicked behavior, it would be the Apostle Paul. He said of unsaved Israel, "Concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sake, but concerning being chosen, they are beloved on account of the forefathers."
This explicitly means that unsaved Israel, even while enemies of the gospel, are still "chosen".
-> Not saved, but chosen.
And one day, hopefully soon, the Messiah will return, all of Israel will see Him and accept His atonement and Lordship. At that time, "All Israel will be saved."
None of this means that we worship the state of Israel, or that they are above reproach, or that God rubberstamps every Israeli political decision or war tactic. It means that we believe that God keeps His promises "as it is written", as Paul wrote.
And it does not mean that we are dispensationalist. I, for one, am not one. I believe that all are saved only in Christ. And at the same time, God is working out His great plan of salvation for Israel. These two truths can live together peaceably.
And the reformation of Israel in 1948 is an important milestone towards that end, as imperfect as they are.
