Revelation Chapter 1 Discussion Page 25

Our Jesus is the faithful witness. How I want to know

Hello Philip Ebere Ironu Ifediora In addition to my comment. The three Patriarchs are mentioned both in the Old and New Testaments, Exodus 3 6 Exodus 3 15 1 Chronicles 29 18 Matthew 22 32 and Mark 12 26, "The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel or Jacob as you know Jacob name was changed to Israel, Genesis 32 28 Genesis 35 10 and 2 King 17 34 . According to Jewish custom the number "3 Three signifies completeness and stability, as represented by the three Patriarchs and the three pilgrimage festivals Passover, Shavuot, and Sukkot ". In the end, I believe that the three times of the water represented the three Patriarchs.

Hello Philip Ebere Ironu Ifediora I understand what you are saying. However since Jesus Christ is God manifested in the flesh and this was during the Jewish customs and rituals in the Old Testament, if you read 1 King 18 36 where Elijah said LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, the thought would be, in this time period, that the three times pouring of the water was in reference to the three stated in verse 36. Simply put it could have been just to fill the trench. Either way it goes the symbolization of the water still does not negate the fact that there is one God, his name is Jesus Christ who is both LORD and Christ.

I am the Alpha and the Omega says the Lord God Almighty. According to english dictionary there is no grammatical difference between mighty to almighty....who is, who was, and who is to come, the Almighty. Who is when He is alive...who was He was a dead man... who is to come raised from the dead...He is now living... and He is coming back. The Almighty God is coming back, according to the Revelation 1 8...the person how is Jesus. Rev. 1 8 is not talking about the Father nor the Spirit. The reallity of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit is not hidden to believers it is only a story to does who do not regard the Lord Jesus as their saviour. Let us look at the Elijah 's drama with the idle worshippers...after he had the altar of the Lord raised, he dug a trench and ask the people to pour some water in, and the act of pouring some water were repeated for three times as Elijah orders them to do why three times why not four times or five times or six, seven, eight, nine, or ten times but the prophet Elijah had the water poured in the trench three times... looking at these acts, one could picture out the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Just like the same activity of the Cherubim and Seraphim crying Holy, holy, holy! So why these three times of Holy, holy, holy! And not four times holy or five times or more?! 1John 5 20 says that the Lord is the true God and the eternal life.

Jesus christ

three things I things of this scripture. Christ 's hands of healing were pierced by nails and these are the very hands he stretched out and bid them to come to him and ever since he has left these open arms to the world as a sign of invitation into his kingdom and promise of welcome. He also used them to touch the down and the outs, the last, the least and the lost of his time as acceptance into his kingdom. They are the same hands he used to bring healing to the world around him. Despite all this the world still pierced those hands. The other place he was pierced was his feet. The very feet he used for spreading the Good News of the Kingdom, as the Bible says how beautiful are the feet of those who bring the good news... This did not stop them to nail these feet onto the cross. As if this was not enough they also chose to drive a spear into his side where water and blood came out. This could indicate that his heart was also pierced. Now the heart could signify the love he poured out to the world. It is also the source of life, the life which he came to give to the world. Nevertheless they pierced it.

Hello Richard boti When you read also verse 8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. You have to ask yourself who is to come? The answer is Jesus Christ who is God manifested in the flesh. He is the beginning and the ending. He is the Alpha and Omega. Jesus Christ is God all by himself.

Rev.1 vs 1,2,4,5 and 6 show clearly that trinity is false.verse 1 shows the source of revelation.from GOD to JESUS and from JESUS to John.meaning JESUS received everything from GOD.Verses 4 to 6 makes it clear that God and FATHER of Jesus is the highiest authority.thats in tandem with matt.28 18

Hello Brandon I appreciate what you have stated. So as not to repeat what I have already posted, please go to Genesis 10 and read my post there which further explains my thoughts about Jesus being Black.

People say it doesnt matter but it does ,because we was given a picture of christ white with long brown hair.mainly to black slaves that was shown a picture of christ portraying the image of who they was enslaved to..good timing from whoever made that image..and the so called jewish who say they are gods chosen people resemble that image but don carry the curses god put on his people but the negroes fullfill the curses

Hello Verity I do not understand your comment. However, I prefer the King James Version overall. My study of how the King James Version came about prove to me that there is very little difference in meaning and content of scripture when it comes from the original text or Dead Sea Scrolls, to the Great Bible, to the King James Version. This is why I like the King James Version. Some of the other interpretations that are out here take away the true meaning of the scripture. However, understanding of the scripture is given by the power of God through the Holy Ghost, John 14 26. God set some in the church to help you understand what the scripture is saying, Ephesians 4 11 And he gave some, apostles and some, prophets and some, evangelists and some, pastors and teachers These people are filled with the Holy Ghost and have followed Acts 2 38.

One has to logically question which version is more accurate before assuming the KJV is incorrect. Research the teams of scholars and years of scrutiny and work that went into a translation from 1611...which is written prior to secular humanism 's subtle hand on the Church evidenced by the current lack of salt and light in this world.

Does baptism save you alone? The answer is no. However, it is part of the salvation plan. If it was not so it would not have been written in the word of God. The preacher must call on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins. The correct and true baptism will bring about the following Being baptized the correct way, you are baptized unto his death, have put on Christ, buried with him, and the answer of a good conscience toward God. Romans 6 3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Galatians 3 27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. Colossians 2 12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. 1 Peter 3 21 The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God, by the resurrection of Jesus Christ Everyone needs to be baptized and in the correct way so saith the Word of God.

I would like to add to the comment that I made, which I hope will come out today or tomorrow. I have heard preachers discuss the color of Jesus Christ. To me knowing what color Jesus Christ is does not negate the fact that people under this Dispensation of Grace need to be saved. The message that he brought was not predicated on the color of his skin. The message he brought was to get saved, by being born again of water and spirit. Jesus Christ said it, Peter clarified it on the day of Pentecost, and the Apostles carried out the mission. We are to carry that same message all over the world. No matter how people debate this issue concerning Jesus Christ color this will not change the deep rooted prejudice in America. However, if we can get people to get saved, truly saved, then prejudice will become a thing of the past with them, because they will be striving to live saved and love everybody, help everybody, and strive for equality for everybody.

Hello Gyenyame Flavious Your comment is noted. What I am about to say has no reflection on you. I personally do not care what color Jesus Christ is. See the enemy get us side track on things that has nothing to do with salvation. The purpose and the true meaning of Jesus Christ coming was to seek and save that which was lost. Luke 19 10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost . The goal is to get as many people to come to Jesus Christ under this Dispensation of Grace before it is too late. Our mission, those that are truly saved, is to tell everyone the salvation plan. They must follow Acts 2 38 in order to be saved. They must repent, turn from their ways. They must be baptized correctly, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ for remission of sins. They must be filled with the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in other tongues as the spirit of God give utterance. This is the most important message in our time. We can discuss what color Jesus Christ is until the cows come home, in the end it has nothing to do with salvation. If you are not saved get saved. If you are saved stay saved before it is too late.

A feet which looks like brass is not different from the hands. Woolly hair pure negroid features. Amen

Peter on the day of Pentecost declared what it took to be saved, Acts 38 thru 40. Then in Acts 4 12 states Neither is there salvation in any other for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. I do not teach tradition, but I do teach the Word of God. Salvation comes through Jesus Christ. We symbolically join him on his journey through his death, burial, and resurrection by following Acts 2 38. You must be born again of water and spirit. This is what Jesus told Nicodemus, John Chapter 3. The water is being baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Being born of spirit is being filled with the Holy Ghost according to the Day of Pentecost. The prophet Isaiah spoke about it in Isaiah 28 11.

Hello La Jeaune Womack The rapture is very real. Please read 1 Thessalonians 4 12 thru 18. If it was not real then God would not have let it be written in the Bible. All scripture is given by the inspiration of God 2 Timothy 3 16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness I assure you with humble heart, I am not teaching any falsehoods to anyone. I am saved by God 's mercy and grace. I followed Acts 2 38.

Jeanne Womack if some one tells you your going to rapture out at any time they are setting you up for Satan because he comes first as Christ yes a false CHRIST but will look just like Him so they who say lets fly they lie and you can 't believe them no matter what scriptures they think of because they don 't know Father or His plan of Salvation. Don 't listen to them that teach traditions of men they make void the word of God.

I would like to clarify something that I stated. I believe that the unborn are saved, those that have been aborted never got a chance to experience good or evil , Romans 9 11 For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth . The following information is my own personal belief that is predicated on the fact that other teachers inspired by God explained. I believe that children who die under the age of accountability are saved. However, when grace is gone and the tribulation period begins that is over because the scripture states, Matthew 24 19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!

Revelation it is tell us about the past persent n furter it help me to hold on to GOD and hand more. Now I can see the coming the of the LORD is at hand now is the acceptable time to accept GOD as your personal LORD and savor thank GOD For every thing he take me true

Hello La Jeaune Womack You are absolutely correct everyone is entitled to their own opinion, however when it comes to the word of God I desire to be correct, 2 Timothy 2 15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. You are mistaken. The Bible is very clear on what is going to take place on the day of the rapture. It is very clear on what is going to take place during the tribulation. The stage is already set. All the players are not into place as of yet because the rapture has not taken place. However, when the rapture takes place and the saints are raptured out of here then the 7th dispensation will start, which is the tribulation period. There will be no mercy, no grace, you will have to make a decision to either get your head chopped off or take on the mark of the beast, 666 in order to be saved. Right now people can have a choice to follow Acts 2 38 and still live, but during that time you will have to lose your natural life in order to be saved.

I believe that Revelation is near I also believe that every human has an opinion on what they believe or thank whats going to take place. I also believe that words can 't give a clearer picture of the actual event that will take place one day. I believe that we should always be prepare because no human really don 't know when, how, or where this transformation is going to take place. Be bless in the Lord

let us not forget the day of the Lord will last 1000 years with Christ as King in Jerusalem and after the first lets say 30 minutes of hail stones and the cleaning of Jerusalem where antichrist sat Christ will be King of kings and His election will be teaching the christians who believe the religious traditions of men and followed antichrist in ignorance up until the end of that 1000 and Satan is let out a short time to see who will believe his lies and then Judgment.

Part 2 of 2 If you are referring to the Great White Throne Judgment as the cut off point for man to be saved then I think you are mistaken. If you referring to the Great White Throne Judgment is how long God will tolerate sin, I think you are mistaken. Hebrews 9 27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment The gauntlet is thrown down. People either get saved under this dispensation following Acts 2 38 or they are lost except I believe the innocence of children under the age of accountability and the unborn . There is no way around this. We can debate all day, but the truth still remains the truth.

Jesus called himself the Son of God before he was crucified. He died because of sin in the world. He was sinless. Jesus taught mankind to live in peace, to love one another and to love God. Jesus taught the words of God as God commanded him. Jesus said, I judge no man. It is God who judges and passes the verdict to Jesus who carries out the destruction of evil. It is revealed, the revelation of Jesus that John wrote about, that there is a cut off point at the end of days when God will judge mankind and Jesus will be given the task of carrying out Gods judgement on the evil people of the world. At that point Jesus can no longer save any wicked person on earth. His role of savior at that point is only for the people that kept Gods word. At that point Jesus is no longer gentle and loving, teaching thou shall not kill. Jesus then takes on the role of evil, the son of man, without compassion or remorse as he kills the people of the world that have followed the ways of Satan therefore saving the righteous people that remain on the earth. The revelation is when Jesus is given his orders from God and transforms from the Son of God to the Son of man.

I am resubmitting this again Part 5 of 6 Also during this time for the earth there is another event that will take place called the Millennium Period or the time of 1000 years of peace. There is controversy over exactly when the 1000 years of peace will take place. Some scholars say that the thousand years of peace will happen between the first three and a half years and the second three and a half years. However, I believe that this event will take place after the time of tribulation suffering is done. Then will Satan be bound and thrown into the bottomless pit known as hell for 1000 years. God s time is not our time, 2 Peter 3 8 But, beloved, no ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years and a thousand years as one day .

I am resubmitting this again Part 4 of 6 The second half of these seven years, which is the other three and a half years, will be filled with torment. One thing that will happen during this time of torment is the fact that death will flee from people, Revelation 9 6 And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them . Can you imagine your body being in a state of death, as we know it today, and you cannot die? You will suffer horribly because death has taken flight. How long this will take place? Well according to the scripture death will flee during the time of the fifth trumpet and the torment during this time will be for five months. So I would imagine five months being the answer, Revelation 9 1 thru 10.

Part 3 of 6 The first three and half years life is going to go on as if all is well with the exception of the many explanations of what happened to all the people that were raptured out of this world. Also with the exception that everyone will have to take the mark of the beast in order to buy, sell, and survive, The Beast Coming up out of the Earth Revelation 13 16 thru 18.
