Thank you! You noticed that as well?
I have heard this taught, and seems to tie in with what we are seeing around us, Christians, genuine, Spirit-filled and walking out His guidance Christians, are getting stronger, the enemies minions are getting more outlandish, more reprobate, etc.
The increase in crime and violence parallels this.
We all need to be careful to keep ourselves stayed on Him and in Him lest we be distracted.:):coffee:(y)

These reactions from some here just don't seem Christlike. It seems they are trying to stir up anger and strife. I'm deciding to ignore them. But I have always appreciated your posts whether we agree or not. I can sense your heart through your posts and they are as Christlike as possible considering these hard subjects we are dealing with. Blessings back to you!!
 
No I am saying Jesus kingdom comes to this world.
Its still Spiritual and so will the new world be, heavenly. It will be manifested when He comes shortly as Paul wrote 2 Tim 4:1

I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;

Otherwise you unfortunately are deceived, may God have mercy on you
 
When did Jesus sit on King David’s Throne?
.

When he ascended to heaven 40 days after the resurrection

I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed. Daniel 7:13-14
That is the same as this
And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals. Revelation 5:1
And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne. Revelation 5:6-7
 
. The church is not the kingdom
It is.

Paul to the Corinthians church 1 Cor 4:19-20

19 But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will know, not the speech of them which are puffed up, but the power.

20 For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.



The Colossian church Col 1:13

13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
 
Those were the early church, before being highjacked by Rome.
Before faith and relationship in Him became a man made "religion" telling people if they wanted to get to heaven they had to go through them.
Jesus works here now as we decrease and He increases to work through we who yield to Him.

What I'm laughing at is your use of the term political to describe the throne of David as if somehow that means anything. A throne means absolute rule; politics really don't play a role in God's kingdom.

Right.

"Political" simply means "relating to people". Currently it's begun to mean "the governing affairs of the people".

A new heaven and earth doesn't sound spiritual to me, why would we need new bodies if we are spiritual?

Can you give Scripture for support?

Yeah. It's the example Paul set in his letter to the Corinthians:

"And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ. 2I fed you with milk and not with solid food; for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able; 3for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like mere men? 4For when one says, “I am of Paul,” and another, “I am of Apollos,” are you not carnal?"


Notice: he still regards them as brothers or "adlephos" (from the same womb) so their status in Christ is not in question. Their maturity in Him is the issue.

Saints mired in politics accept divisions between other brothers and so they are to be treated as carnal... acting like mere men. I know PennEd to be mired in politics by his own admission. I gave him some time to come around but he keeps lobbing insults at me and others who don't agree with him. This behavior mirrors the behavior as the man he supported as his political representative, Donald Trump. There is no record of Trump in the Bible but there is a record of what happens when believers mix with vile men:

This is from Paul too. "Do not be deceived: “Evil company corrupts good habits.”"

So, if someone says they are a believer or a "Christian" and they also choose vile men and women as their representative (this happens mostly in Representative Republics) at the very least they have some growing to do. To wit: they are carnal and should be regarded as such.
 
Wow, HeIsHere is getting more wacky by the minute. First laughing about a funeral now angry at someone who asks unity of brothers and sisters in Christ. smh Unreal.

It is called being ecumenical, I see no place where scriptures states I am not to be discerning.

Angry, rich coming from you, remember telling people to go suck pigeon farts, God forbid one NOT fall in line with supporting the surveillance state,

Yup I will pass.

A new heaven and earth doesn't sound spiritual to me, why would we need new bodies if we are spiritual?

Do you know what adjective is used to describe the new bodies?

Here:

"So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption. 43 It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power. 44 It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body."

Yeah, they also tend to be upset when corrected:

That's why patience is needed as an example to others. Patience is a quality of the mature. We should not expect patience from the carnally minded. Indeed, we can expect the opposite: division, back-biting, given to matters of mere men, investing more in the world than in the eternal kingdom. They often pray for enough money so they don't have to trust God.
 
Trashing co-laborers isn't a way to please the Savior.

HeIsHere is here for one reason, to stir up trouble. And she has her buddies that hate what she hates. Oh she has her own little cult thriving here. Again, no explanation as to why a funeral is funny to her. If she gives one, let me know.
