    Zionism among the Evangelicals is contradicted by Scripture

    Apparently a moderator refused a post I submitted so I'll place it here. This will be my last because it is tiring to deal with such irrational people with no reading comprehension. As an 81 y.o., patience is not my strongest grace. I sat under the preaching of dispensationalism for the first...

    Zionism among the Evangelicals is contradicted by Scripture

    I'll quote Josh 21:43-45 and then the statement from MacArthur's Study Bible - "Thus the LORD gave to Israel all the land that he swore to their ancestors that he would give them; and having taken possession of it, they settled there. And the LORD gave them rest on every side just as he had...

    Zionism among the Evangelicals is contradicted by Scripture

    Thank God for the true Bible scholars of centuries ago, such as Matthew Poole (1624-1679) who comments on Gen. 13:15 in his commentary - Object. Abram could see but a little part of the land. Answ. 1. He might now possibly be upon a mountain, from whence he might have a large prospect every...

    Zionism among the Evangelicals is contradicted by Scripture

    I find it incomprehensible how anyone can call themselves a Bible-believing Christian and say Joshua contains lies. Here is what is recorded by Joshua: "Thus the LORD gave to Israel all the land which he swore to give to their fathers; and having taken possession of it, they settled there. And...

    Zionism among the Evangelicals is contradicted by Scripture

    Israel's land promise already fulfilled & completed: Gen. 15:18-21; Josh 21:43-45, 23:14-16; Ex. 23:27-30; Num. 34:1-12; 1 Kgs 4:20,21; 2 Chr. 9:22-28; Neh. 9:23, 24 I'm leaving on a trip, but even when at home I do not stay always on the Internet. When it takes such gymnastics to reject the...

    Zionism among the Evangelicals is contradicted by Scripture

    Again, prove your argument from scripture, not throwing about a label that is apparently coined by the modernists, called dispensationalists.... arriving on the scene in the latter 1800s!

    Zionism among the Evangelicals is contradicted by Scripture

    Try addressing the scriptures instead of throwing about a label.

    Zionism among the Evangelicals is contradicted by Scripture

    NO, this thread is not about the modern straw man of "Replacement Theology", but this is a label placed on the historical Christian understanding of the Bible by the church. The weird theology of dispensationalism never showed up until the latter 1800s. I was accused earlier in this thread of...

    Zionism among the Evangelicals is contradicted by Scripture

    Give me the verse in Romans chapter 11 where you find "after which". I've checked several translations and do not find that phrase anywhere in the book of Romans.

    Zionism among the Evangelicals is contradicted by Scripture

    Peter Pett's Commentary on 1 Pet. 2:9 shows the church to be a continuation of true Israel, a succession of Israel; NOT A REPLACEMENT! The OT prophets spoke of the New Covenant assembly, NOT some renewed Jewish state in our future. This is just a portion of Pett's comments. "But you are a...

    Zionism among the Evangelicals is contradicted by Scripture

    There is NO "after which" in that passage! "Lest you be wise in your own conceits, I want you to understand this mystery, brethren: a hardening has come upon part of Israel, until the full number of the Gentiles come in, and so all Israel will be saved; as it is written, 'The Deliverer will...

    Zionism among the Evangelicals is contradicted by Scripture

    I do not believe the New Covenant people of God, the assemblies of Christ "replaced" Israel, the OT people of God. Believers, the New Covenant people of God are a continuation of the Old Covenant people of God. The Old Covenant is past, not to be brought back! "Circumcision is nothing...

    Zionism among the Evangelicals is contradicted by Scripture

    It is important to keep in mind that the word "church" is an ecclesiastical word not found in the Hebrew or Greek of the Bible. In a literal translation the words are rendered "assembly" or "congregation". God's people in both testaments are referred to as assembly or congregation. In the...

    Zionism among the Evangelicals is contradicted by Scripture

    For those who label me "anti-Semitic" for not embracing Israel as Bible prophecy, read it from a Jew. "The relatively new concept of Zionism began only about one hundred years ago and since that time Torah-true Jewry has steadfastly opposed the Zionist ideology. This struggle is rooted in two...

    Elon Musk says if Trump arrested he'll win '24

    I have hoped Ron DeSantis will run for the GOP nomination and win it. If DeSantis did not make it, I was willing to support Trump again as I have twice before. But now, for me, if Trump is the nominee, I will sit out the '24 election. I listened to Steve Bannon's War Room this afternoon and...

    How is evangelism to take place in our day?

    I ignore Sabbatarian legalism applied to the 7th or the 1st day of the week. I live under the New Covenant! I reject the idea of calling Sunday the "Christian Sabbath". 1. Nowhere in the New Covenant is there a command for Christians, New Covenant believers, to observe the sabbath. Jesus did...

    No major doctrines changed?

    Funny! I like that.... On Revelation 22:19 - "...the Textus Receptus (followed by the King James Version) reads ἀπὸ βίβλου, a reading that occurs in no Greek manuscript. The error arose when Erasmus, in order to provide copy for the last six verses of Revelation (which were lacking in the...

    Evangelicals the most unfavorable religion

    I find it interesting how often when reading topics of religion online, young people voice a stronger interest in Buddhism than they do Christianity. Is that just because they are the reprobate? When I read Paul's sermon in Athens to the Gentiles he preaches about the one true God and gave the...
