We continue with the subject of, The Millennium and the End of Sin The Resurrection of Condemnation We continue once again with our look at the Millennium and the Judgement to come, and the article we were reviewing in our last post. “Are There Few That Be Saved?” We are told plainly that Christ is to “fill all things,” “far above all heavens” (Eph. 4:10), that in his Name will every knee bow, upon earth as well as in heaven…
We continue with the subject of, The Millennium and the End of Sin The Resurrection of Condemnation We continue once again with our look at the Millennium and the Judgement to come. “Are There Few That Be Saved?” The following excerpt comes from a book entitled, Future Probation in Christian Belief by Albert O. Hudson Since the Apostles “fell asleep” a number of Christian scholars, particularly those living during the 18th and 19th centuries, testified to their belief in a…
We continue with the subject of, The Millennium and the End of Sin Having considered what our Adventist friends believe the Church will be doing during the millennium (as not all believers, all who profess Christ are part of the Church, the bride of Christ nor will be going to heaven, See Matt 7:21-23), let us now consider what the scriptures say the Church will be doing during the millennium. It is evident that our friends don’t know why the…
Continuing with the subject of, The Millennium and the End of Sin In our previous post we were addressing the issue of what Adventist believe believers will be doing in heaven while the earth remains desolate and void of life save that of Satan and the fallen angels. According to our Adventist friends: “God is going to give the redeemed 1,000 years in heaven to learn about what’s behind His judgement of humanity. As you can imagine, we will have…
Continuing with the subject of, The Millennium and the End of Sin In our previous post we were addressing the issue of where Adventist say believers will be during the millennium. Now before we address the issue of what they will be doing we need first to address issue number 2, Where do they believe the rest of humanity are during this time? According to our Adventist friends, paraphrasing what they have said: At the beginning of the millennium following…
In order to qualify for the great salvation one must first have participated in the common salvation. One must first have become a believer, been justified from the Adamic curse through faith in the finished work of Christ before they could present themselves an acceptable sacrifice to the Lord, and participate in the high calling, the great salvation. Thus we find the Apostle addressing believers (those already faith justified) that they should go on to the “second step”, and present…
“To make all see what is the fellowship of the mystery.” (Eph. 3:3-6, 9.) To show men the conditions upon which they might become sharers with Jesus, joined to the body of Christ, the true Church, to see the method of administration or operation of the mystery by which they might become sharers with Jesus in the execution of God’s plans. This is where many stumble, lacking a proper understanding of the “The Two Salvations”, and the distinction between the…
“In the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound [i.e. in the forepart of his sounding,] the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.” (Rev 10:7) It is our understanding that we are now living in the days of the voice of the Seventh Angel. The evidence is that these trumpets mentioned by the Revelator and by Paul (1 Cor. 15:52; and 1 Thess 4:16;…
From what we’ve gleamed from some of the statements found on the Christian forum we frequent under the thread: The Mystery Revealed to Paul it is evident that there exist a lot of confusion over just what constitutes the “mystery” being spoken of by the Apostle Paul in Eph 3:1-12 with some imagining he was simply referring to the gospel of salvation itself. This of course could not be the case because the Apostle states that this mystery was not…
HOPE BEYOND ARMAGEDDON (The following extract was taken from The End Times Spring 2001 Issue # 16) The Left Behind series of religious novels by Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins, and the movies based upon these books promote an overly dramatic and sadistic view of end time prophecy. The authors tell of the horrors of a vindictive God destroying three billion people by fire and earthquakes. (It is a fact that too many professed believers these days allow their faith…
