A problem with premillennialism

[Musicmaster]

I never said "greater" or "superior", I said "same."

If you know anything about authority, you'd agree I am right. But you don't and this leads me to believe you've never been discipled in obedience nor has the Lord put a bit in your mouth to lead you this way or that way.

One must be a GREATER authority than the authorities he claims to have anything to add to, or to change, what was taught by the apostles! You sit there pretending to know something, and yet you know nothing apart from the humanistic bent upon equality and even superiority over authorities long passed from this world who were established by Yah Himself!

You also don't know the scriptures, for John, a fellow Jew, stated to us that we need NO man to teach us because of the Anointing Who dwells within all who are born again. We have the Law written in our hearts by that very Spirit who indwells all of us who are born again.

The group of haters out there who call themselves Jews and rabbis, yammering about Gentiles are nothing in the eyes of Yah, they are worthless, weak and of no educational value for scripture that came from Yah and His word. In their number are those who claim that all Gentiles are worthless to Yah. Yahshuah had much to say about that type, and it wasn't good!

So, if you want to start being consistent with scripture, then great. If not, you're just another sounding gong, because there is no greater authority over spiritual matter than Holy Spirit Himself. We have Him, we seek Him always, and Yah ensures people like you don't come along to successfully corrupt minds and hearts of all with whom you come in contact, especially of the babes in Yahshuah! He has us more mature followers and spiritual giants out here to point the new converts ONLY to Yahshuah, not a bunch of dusty piles of dead men's bones in religious crypts covered with funny garb they hope conveys to others their alleged superiority over all others!

Get a clue, dude. You're no authority at all in spiritual matters considering what I've seen coming from your fingers on this screen. The ONLY authority I exercise is in pointing others to Yahshuah, and Him alone!

Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old, he shall not depart from it.

God giving His Law to the children of Israel exhibits God's grace to train up His children in the way they shall go. Without God's Law then how shall the children of Israel know what God expects from them?
Any father that does not train their child is cruel and is guilty of child abuse. It is wrong to not train (teach) their children about the world and send them out into the world to fend for themselves. But a child trained is a child prepared and as a Good Father God always prepares His people. This is grace. This is "charis."

You quoted a portion of my post and then replied with something completely unrelated.

When someone comes along claiming equal authority with the apostles, whether it's a fellow Jew or not, that always raises the hair on the back of my head. They don't seem to realize that laying claim to equal authority with those who were inspired by Yah to write the scriptures is the same as them declaring the same level of inspiration. Perhaps others in here would say that they perceive no such equality in such a claim, but dare we delve into the inner layers of that claim, what ends up being revealed is an inner desire for something that is not the life to which Yahshuah has called any of us today to live out among our brothers and sisters in the faith.

You don't know my place in the body, nor do you know my call and the spiritual gifts the Lord gave me to accomplish my call, so you're not any judge to judge.
Given that "apostolos" means "sent" yes, I can say I have been "sent."

The Catholics, and a shamefully large portion of modern Protestantism, don't know the difference between the office of Apostle---which is what the NT Apostles were. They confuse the definition of the word and its biblical application, and like you, then announce themselves as apostles.

All you are doing is interpreting the word and claiming the authority to do so, just as the pope does. If you misinterpret it, as both you and they do, and blatantly so, to serve their own agenda, there is not an ounce of authority behind it, and they may be sent by someone, but it isn't God. am shocked that people are so careless before God. Perhaps the scriptures of His attitude toward those who say "Thus says the Lord." and then tell lies, should be visited. No fear of God in any sense of the word.

Incorrect. Jesus Christ IS the foundation.

11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
1 Cor. 3:10–11.

20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; Eph 2:19–20.

Which is it? Is Jesus Christ the foundation or is He delegated by Saul as a cornerstone and the apostles and prophets are the foundation?

Obfuscation. Deliberate? Or out of ignorance?

Think of a building being built. The cornerstone is from what everything built on it is aligned to. Jesus is also called the capstone. What is that?The highpoint and crowning achievement of a finished building. The foundation is built from the cornerstone, staying true to it in every stone that is laid in the foundation. And then the foundation is built upon. So the foundation is the same as the cornerstone, but it must be laid so the building can be built. Which is what the NT, appointed to the office of Apostle by the cornerstone, were doing. And what is built on that very same cornerstone and foundation grows into the building. The church, also known as the Body of Christ. (1 Cor 3:10; 1 Peter 2:4-10)

Yes, the book is closed. Both Testaments. And since all this time I've been saying the same thing as God in that the Abrahamic Covenant is between God, Abram the Hebrew and his seed, and that there are no non-Hebrew Gentiles named or mentioned in this covenant, then all attempts by Gentiles to insert themselves in the Abrahamic Covenant, a covenant which is as closed as the "book" is closed is a lie. There are no Gentiles in any of the closed Hebrew covenants. Finally.

That is nowhere in the Bible, but this is: Numbers 15





11 “Thus it shall be done for each bull or ram, or for each lamb or young goat. 12 As many as you offer, so shall you do with each one, as many as there are. 13 Every native Israelite shall do these things in this way, in offering a food offering, with a pleasing aroma to the Lord. 14 And if a stranger is sojourning with you, or anyone is living permanently among you, and he wishes to offer a food offering, with a pleasing aroma to the Lord, he shall do as you do. 15 For the assembly, there shall be one statute for you and for the stranger who sojourns with you, a statute forever throughout your generations. You and the sojourner shall be alike before the Lord. 16 One law and one rule shall be for you and for the stranger who sojourns with you.”

29 You shall have one law for him who does anything unintentionally, for him who is native among the people of Israel and for the stranger who sojourns among them.

There were non-Hebrews who came out of Egypt with them, and non-Hebrews that joined them along the way. In the same covenant, receiving the same benefits of God as their God as the Hebrews. No distinction was made by God. Moses' father-in-law and wife were not Hebrews

There are thousands of 'gospels' in Scripture. Eve having Seth is 'gospel.' Sarah having Isaac is 'gospel.' Hannah having Samuel is 'gospel.' Mary having Jesus is 'gospel.' Jesus' resurrection is 'gospel.' The promise of Jesus returning is 'gospel.' And what is 'gospel'?

More obfuscation.

17 All nations before him are as nothing;
And they are counted to him less than nothing, and vanity.
Isaiah 40:17.

Now be a good Gentile and explain it away.

I will explain it according to its context.Is 40 all the verses that precede and follow it. God is declaring who He is. Sovereign over everything He created, doing with it as He pleases. One thing it does not say is "All nations except Israel are as nothing and all nations but Israel are counted to Him less than nothing and vanity." It says ALL NATIONS. That would include Israel.

 

[Arial]

The spirit of the Law IS the Law. Whether letter of the Law or spirit of the Law it is the SAME Law of Moses.

More obfuscation. Is there anything in the letter of the Law or the spirit contained in it that advocates hatred of people based on ethnicity?

The Hebrew Scripture (Law, Psalms, Prophets) can be trusted. Any authority that claims to speak for God who doesn't say the same thing as God is a liar.

To bad you did not have a chance to read the scripture from Numbers I gave that expose your lie before you posted this.

 

[jeremiah1five]

One must be a GREATER authority than the authorities he claims to have anything to add to, or to change, what was taught by the apostles! You sit there pretending to know something, and yet you know nothing apart from the humanistic bent upon equality and even superiority over authorities long passed from this world who were established by Yah Himself!

There is only ONE Authority and that is God. And in authorizing anyone to do His bidding the Authority is the same, whether it is a command for Peter to do something, or John to do something or a command given to me to do something. When you elevate one Christian above another then you are practicing idol-worship and being partial in your hearts. Both are sinful attitudes from a sinful 'heart.'
You don't know me. You don't know my calling or the authority from the God of the universe to accomplish that calling. But I do. And the authority comes from ONE PERSON: God. And whatever authority He gives any one of us it's the same authority because it comes from the same Person. The body has authority of God to function but not all body parts have the same function. We don't elevate one body part over another. And the head is more important than the heart. A heart can be resuscitated but once the electrical impulses of the brain cease death occurs and there's no resuscitating the brain. So, yes, the Head who is Christ is more important than any other body part because although the head regulates many functions of the body it doesn't regulate ALL body parts. But the Head of the body who is Christ regulates ALL functions of the body, even those parts we give less honor. So, trying to Monday morning arm-chair quarterback my place in the body and my calling is really a failing endeavor because I can recognize "lording it over the sheep" as opposed to God using someone in my life to speak to me for something I need to know because when God isn't speaking directly into my being then I rely on His Word because I know that the wickedness of man is great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart is only evil continually.
Especially on sites like this when so-called "Christians" can read a passage of Scripture I post to contradict their personal belief and they choose to retain their beliefs and reject the Word of God. Members always twisting the Scripture, adding to it, changing it, subtracting from it, re-interpreting it, or explaining it away just to maintain their false theology and beliefs.

You also don't know the scriptures, for John, a fellow Jew, stated to us that we need NO man to teach us because of the Anointing Who dwells within all who are born again.

If we require no man to teach us, then I suppose we can do away with this verse:

11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
12 For the perfecting of the saints,
for the work of the ministry,
for the edifying of the body of Christ:
13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; Eph 4:10–14.

To do away with the Apostle (who is Christ - Heb. 3:1), or the Prophet (who is Christ - Jn. 4:19) or the evangelist (who is Christ - Mk. 1:15), or the Pastor/Shepherd (who is Christ - Jn. 10:11), or the Teacher (who is Christ - Jn. 3:2) is to do away with Christ for Christ is all those ministries, not the person to whom Christ has such callings to perform. It is Christ in the believer that is the Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor/Shepherd, and Teacher, not the person. The person is only a vessel in whom Christ may operate through that person.

Not only do you remind me of Cornelius who bowed and took a knee before Peter but also Diotrephes who loved to have preeminence.
One thing lacking in the body of Christ is discipleship, and not the weeklong "discipleship" conferences, or the mid-week home bible studies, or online "discipleship courses," all of these are a farce and a deception. I am talking about discipleship in which the disciple lives with their teacher for solid length of time just the way Jesus did it. This does not happen in the Gentile "church."

We have the Law written in our hearts by that very Spirit who indwells all of us who are born again.

That Law written on our hearts is the Law of Moses.
Or didn't you know that?
(you didn't know that.)

The group of haters out there who call themselves Jews and rabbis, yammering about Gentiles are nothing in the eyes of Yah, they are worthless, weak and of no educational value for scripture that came from Yah and His word. In their number are those who claim that all Gentiles are worthless to Yah. Yahshuah had much to say about that type, and it wasn't good!

Be careful, antisemite, Hitler might hear you and make you join him.

3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: Gen. 12:2–3.

And just to throw it in your face:

6 For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God:
the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself,
above all people that are upon the face of the earth. Deut 7:5–6.

As a presumed Gentile I know my place. Salvation is of the LORD (Jonah 2:9), and salvation is OF THE JEWS (Jn. 4:22), and if I am correct that God keeps covenant with the people He's made covenant with, that is, the Hebrews, and that the evidence of my salvation is most likely that I have Abraham's DNA in me, then I'm good to go. I will never lose my salvation because before God created heaven, earth, or man, He contemplated me in His Mind in Himself a long 'time' ago and all He's doing is following the book of life of the lamb slain and checking off names as He goes along.

So, if you want to start being consistent with scripture, then great. If not, you're just another sounding gong,

Do you realize that Saul was identifying exactly the sounds that come from a gong and cymbals?
No, you do not.

because there is no greater authority over spiritual matter than Holy Spirit Himself. We have Him, we seek Him always,

Not always. many here do not give Him the time of day.

and Yah ensures people like you don't come along to successfully corrupt minds and hearts of all with whom you come in contact, especially of the babes in Yahshuah!

Quite impossible to do. You see, every child of God is directly under His influence and command and even a backslidden born-again believer He will recover like the Prodigal Son they are, and all His children will at the appointed time come to Him. None are lost. Not even Judas.

He has us more mature followers and spiritual giants out here to point the new converts ONLY to Yahshuah,

Thank you.

not a bunch of dusty piles of dead men's bones in religious crypts covered with funny garb they hope conveys to others their alleged superiority over all others!

I agree. People that can excommunicate believers from fellowship for no real sin are included.

Get a clue, dude.

I did. July 7, 1977.

You're no authority at all in spiritual matters considering what I've seen coming from your fingers on this screen. The ONLY authority I exercise is in pointing others to Yahshuah, and Him alone!

That's because you don't know what I know just as early common-folk Jewish Christians in the first century didn't know what Saul knew either.

You quoted a portion of my post and then replied with something completely unrelated.

I said the Law given to the children of Israel is an expression of God's grace to that people. You disagree.

I am right. You are wrong. And if you understood what I said in "train up a child" then you'd agree. But since you don't understand then you don't. Even when God chastises one of His kids it is grace in action.
Or will you disagree with that also?

 

[Arial]

I said the Law given to the children of Israel is an expression of God's grace to that people. You disagree.

I never disagreed. This is what I said when you claimed no Gentiles believe there is grace in the Law.

God's Law reveals God's grace. But Gentiles have this idea that by misinterpreting passages of Scripture they set Law and grace against each other. How can God be against God? Isn't that what Jesus said about a kingdom divided cannot stand? More false Gentile theology.

That is your anti-Gentile rant, but it is a lie. If your never bother to actually hear what they say, but cling tenaciously to this rant, it shows a spirit of hate.

Try to follow along.

When you elevate one Christian above another then you are practicing idol-worship and being partial in your hearts. Both are sinful attitudes from a sinful 'heart.'

In keeping with what I actually said, I specifically spoke of inspiration, which you don't have. It really is just that simple.

You don't know me. You don't know my calling or the authority from the God of the universe to accomplish that calling.

I know you're not an authority on the level of the apostles, who ALONE were inspired to write scripture in the sense of "thus said the Lord." I know for a FACT that YOU do not have that level of authority nor revelation. All one has to do in order to validate that is to see just how anti-scriptural your views are. It really is just that simple.

But I do. And the authority comes from ONE PERSON: God. And whatever authority He gives any one of us it's the same authority because it comes from the same Person.

Your self-contradictions are most amusing. You say on one hand, "...whatever authority He gives any one of us it's the same authority because it comes from the same Person." Then you turn around and said this, "We don't elevate one body part over another. And the head is more important than the heart." No elevation, and yet some more important than others. It's interesting that the apostles did not speak of importance. That's a concoction of your own making.

Please do continue your self-contradictions. This is amusing...

A heart can be resuscitated but once the electrical impulses of the brain cease death occurs and there's no resuscitating the brain.

Well, I'm no MD, but I do know that death is not just a matter of electrical impulses, but rather the cells still functioning on the basis of available oxygen. That's all academic, and not something worthwhile in the arena of humor as we observe your self-contradictions...

So, yes, the Head who is Christ is more important than any other body part because although the head regulates many functions of the body it doesn't regulate ALL body parts.

It's very quaint that you see Yahshuah as "more important," although I would say that He is so much more than merely "more important."

Don't you see what is being betrayed by your words? Words mean things, and to those of us with critical thinking skills, we see the arrogance behind your words. It's actually on the precipice of narcissism, dare we put a name to it.

For the record, I am nothing. I point ONLY to Yahshuah, for He alone is worthy of all praise and for all eyes to be upon only Him.

If we require no man to teach us, then I suppose we can do away with this verse:

11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;

14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; Eph 4:10–14.

This is only one of your many weaknesses, with you thinking that you're someone of teaching authority.

If you ever took the time to study the contexts, you would not have make this fundamental blunder. Heck, even that you're still here arguing to defend your alleged teaching authority, that alone speaks to the deep flaws in your thinking. You are nothing, which is true of us all because we are ALL liars in comparison to Yah:

Romans 3:1-4
1 What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit [is there] of circumcision?
2 Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God.
3 For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?
4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.

You are no oracle of Yah. That much is definitely clear.

Peter was a renegade, and at times a fool with his mouth. He was a cusser, spoke out of turn and inappropriate things ("let us build three tabernacles, one for Moses, one for Elijah...), and a mouth that wrote checks he couldn't cash ("let me come out of the boat and walk towards you.")

Yep, Peter was human and messed up on occasions.
So did Adam, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, etc.
And oh my gosh, it would take hours to list all the times Israel messed up over and over and over again.
Their whole history is filled with failure after failure.
Israel was just a mini version of the whole of mankind.

At least the apostle Peter recognized the history.

Acts 15:10-11 NET​

(10) So now why are you putting God to the test by placing on the neck of the disciples a yoke that neither our ancestors nor we have been able to bear?​

(11) On the contrary, we believe that we are saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, in the same way as they are.”​

And so did the apostle James.

Acts 15:13-18 NET​

(13) After they stopped speaking, James replied, “Brothers, listen to me.​

(14) Simeon has explained how God first concerned himself to select from among the Gentiles a people for his name.​

(15) The words of the prophets agree with this, as it is written,​

(16) ‘After this I will return, and I will rebuild the fallen tent of David; I will rebuild its ruins and restore it,​

(17) so that the rest of humanity may seek the Lord, namely, all the Gentiles I have called to be my own,’ says the Lord, who makes these things​

(18) known from long ago.​

Greetings Carbon,

I am not sure what your problem is here. Christ will return and reward the faithful with everlasting life and they will become kings and priests with Jesus for the 1000 years over the mortal nations that survived Armageddon.
Isaiah 2:1–4 (KJV): 1 The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem. 2 And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD’S house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. 3 And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. 4 And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.

Towards the end of the 1000 years, human nature being what it is, even under ideal conditions, some will rebel against the authority of Christ and the faithful, and this will bring about the events depicted in Revelation 20 at the end of the 1000 years.

Kind regards
Trevor

The problem is: Dipsy's have Christ returning and ruling from a temporal temple, over temporal people, who go about daily life, marrying and being given in marriage, and a host of other nations preparing to revolt against King Jesus and the restored kingdom of Israel. Just as it is in this age. And no resurrected, glorified people.

Whereas Jesus and Paul repeatedly speak of only two ages---time periods---this one and the one to come. The Bible tells us repeatedly that when Jesus returns at the sound of the trumpet, in the twinkling of an eye, the dead will raised, the righteous to everlasting life, the wicked to everlasting death.

 

[3 Resurrections]

Israel was just a mini version of the whole of mankind.

ABSOLUTELY. A microcosm, as it were. God selected a despised people who were incredibly stubborn (just like all mankind is, really) and poured out His favors upon them. In spite of those blessings, repeated rebellious episodes arose, followed by God's judgments. This provided a pattern of what inherently characterizes humanity in general.

Israel's behavior and ancient history showing a picture of the behavior of us all only serves to magnify the mercy which God has extended to us in the person and work of Jesus Christ.

Yes, it shows that all of mankind was in need of the only Supreme being that would not ever mess up because He loved His creation and wanted a relationship with them even though He always knew His creation could never be flawless as He is.

 

[jeremiah1five]

I never disagreed. This is what I said when you claimed no Gentiles believe there is grace in the Law.



Try to follow along.

It doesn't matter what Gentiles believe or disbelieve. It has nothing to do with Gentiles. God has no covenant with Gentiles. He never promised His Holy Spirit to Gentiles, never made covenant with Gentiles, never called Gentiles "His people" or "His saints," or His Church," or His Bride," or "His people."

God expresses His grace upon the children of Israel by giving them His Law in which to live and order their lives. God is not concerned with what Gentiles believe or don't believe. Gentiles are not the apple of His eye.

 

[jeremiah1five]

What a donkey.

So, who gets to check the admin for calling Christ in me as asp?
All sin is against God.
Jesus said, "what you do to these the least of my brethren you have done it unto me."

 

[jeremiah1five]

In keeping with what I actually said, I specifically spoke of inspiration, which you don't have. It really is just that simple.



I know you're not an authority on the level of the apostles,

As I explained, yes I am.

who ALONE were inspired to write scripture in the sense of "thus said the Lord."

I don't have to write Scripture because that's not in my call.
Thus says the Lord is. I just don't say it that way.

I know for a FACT that YOU do not have that level of authority nor revelation. All one has to do in order to validate that is to see just how anti-scriptural your views are. It really is just that simple.

I have the same revelation as Saul. The same authority, but my call is not the same as his.

Your self-contradictions are most amusing. You say on one hand, "...whatever authority He gives any one of us it's the same authority because it comes from the same Person." Then you turn around and said this, "We don't elevate one body part over another. And the head is more important than the heart." No elevation, and yet some more important than others. It's interesting that the apostles did not speak of importance. That's a concoction of your own making.

If there are ten privates in an army and Sergeant gives instruction to do something to one private, and the Sergeant gives instruction to another private to do something else, is one private higher than the other private in authority to do the thing he was instructed to do?
You need to be discipled in the things of God because there is some serious lack on your part on the truth of God.

Please do continue your self-contradictions. This is amusing...
