Quoting: Anonymous Coward 252372Well, let's go to the back of the Book and see what it says. Revelation 20:1-6 1And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss and holding in his hand a great chain. 2He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years. 3He threw him into the Abyss, and locked and sealed it over him, to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended. After that, he must be set free for a short time. 4I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony for Jesus and because of the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or his image and had not received his mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ a thousand years. 5(The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended.) This is the first resurrection. 6Blessed and holy are those who have part in the first resurrection. The second death has no power over them, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with him for a thousand years. Hmmmmmmm.........Yup! Christ reigns for 1000 years here on earth after He comes back. |

Get Ready For A Culture Shock - You Will Celebrate Sabbath, New Moon And The Festivals After Jesus The Messiah Returns Here's my understanding of the end-times order of events in general, based on my reading of the Bible: 1. Rapture- of the Christians to heaven to be saved from His wrath to come. 2. 7 yr Tribulation/Daniel's 70th week- God's judgment on earth for those who reject Jesus Christ; His attempt to bring the world back to Him before they are lost forever. Rise of the Antichrist as the global dictator. 3. Battle of Armageddon- where the Antichrist and his armies will fight against Israel and other armies. 4. 2nd Coming of Jesus Christ- to destroy the Antichrist, the false prophet, and all the armies that have attacked Israel and Him. Also the time where Jesus has Satan bound for 1000 yrs. Christians return to earth with Jesus. Only people left on earth are followers of Jesus. 5. Millennial Kingdom of Jesus Christ for 1000 yrs. Restoration of the planet. Christians become priests and rulers on earth. The decimated population rebuilds civilization. 6. Last rebellion on earth- at the end of the Millennial Kingdom; Satan is loosed temporarily and incites the rebellion; Rebellion is squashed by Jesus; but then is thrown into the Lake of Fire and is effectively destroyed forever. 7. Great White Thrown of Judgment- where Jesus judges all who have rejected Him; those who are not saved are thrown into the Lake of Fire forever. 8. Earth is then burned up/purified by fire. New heavens and new earth come into existence. New Jerusalem comes down from heaven to the earth. And we will be with Him forever and ever. Christians often have differing opinions about interpretations of some of the various details of biblical prophecy, but this is the basic sequence of events that my studies have shown me. And it is in general agreement with many prophecy scholars, such as Walvoord, Ice and others. This information is found in the Bible, mostly in the books of Revelation and Daniel. www.biblegateway.com For more detailed information: [link to www.gotquestions.org] |

YES YES YES........we are saved ONLY through the Lord Jesus Christ! However, how evil are you to question the salvation of people on this thread because they don't agree with your exact interpretation of a few scripture verses. It is YOU who are not advocating salvation by works. What we are saying is that, YES, salvation is only through the Lord Jesus Christ. There is NO other way of salvation. The point of this thread has NOTHING to do with personal salvation. What it DOES have to do with is that the passages in Zechariah, Ezekiel and Isaiah are very, very clearly after the Messiah returns and sets up His Kingdom. Those passages are super clear that we WILL be celebrating Sabbath, New Moon, Passover and the Feast of Tabernacles once that occurs. Nobody has even come close to debunking that proposition so far. So if you want to challenge the scriptural basis for the thread go ahead. So far nobody has stepped up to the plate. And you know why? Because it is true. |

Get Ready For A Culture Shock - You Will Celebrate Sabbath, New Moon And The Festivals After Jesus The Messiah Returns Jesus said "til heaven & earth pass away, not on jot, not one tittle will be done away with until ALL is fulfilled". Part of that fulfillment is Jesus returning to this earth & setting up his kingdom in Jerusalem. (Revelation) If you claim to live as Jesus did then you'll keep the weekly sabbath, annual sabbaths, new moons & the dietary laws. These were continued to be kept by the disciples even after Jesus ascended to heaven after his resurrection on a Saturday afternoon. If ANYONE would have known that these were done away with, the disciples would have known. BUT they continued to keep them. Col. 2:16 - If you keep those day, then don't let anyone hassle you about keeping them. If you don't keep them, then that verse doesn't apply to you. (Just like some of the Torah only applies to men & some of it only applies to women) |
