1	inheavenseyes, 2300 and cleansing?	Matt 24:29	inheavenseyes	61164
	Greetings Searcher, Well I have said mine and yours as well. Thank you for your answers! You asked me what denomination do I belong? I'm sorry but i don't like to make any controversy, what matters is we do all believe in one the same God and I pray that Let there be unity in Diversity( as to denominations each one holds) The Lord will reward us according to the Light we received. Thank you and God Bless! inheavenseyes
2	inheavenseyes, 2300 and cleansing?	Matt 24:29	inheavenseyes	61069
	Greetings Searcher, I'm sorry i just got the time to visit the forum today. Anyway, Thank you for your answers, and in return let me answer yours to some extent. I think I didn't write "Christ went to Heaven for our restoration." The restoration 'am referring to is the work all for which the heavenly sanctuary is concerned for man's final restoration (if not found wanting). Though your question is fair, does heaven need cleansing or how could a Sanctuary in Heaven need cleansing? Let me bounce back a question for you, what does the sanctuary written in the Bible meant to you ( not on your own interpretation but to what the Bible has to say)? not unless we know what does the Sanctuary really does can we obtain answer to why "Cleansing in the heavenly Santcuary?" Let me share you the the following text, In Hebrew 9:23 Paul says " It was therefore necessary that the PATTERNS OF THINGS IN THE HEAVENS should be purified with these (Blood of the animals); but the heavenly things themeselves with better sacrifices than these(even the precious blood of Christ)." To obtain a further knowledge of the cleansing to which the prophecy points, it was necessary to understand the ministration of the the heavenly sanctuary. This could be learned only from the ministration of the earthly sanctuary; for Paul declares that the priests who officiated there served "UNTO THE EXAMPLE AND SHADOW OF HEAVENLY THINGS" Heb. 8:5 And what was done in type in the Ministration of the earthly sanctuary , is done in reality in the ministartion of the heavenly sanctuary. Its' quite long if I have to write down how Earthly Sanctuary goes for deeper understanding but l'll let ypu have it via email likewise your question on the 2300 years prophecy. I pray that this helps. God Bless! inheavenseyes

4	7 years of tribulation?	Matt 24:29	inheavenseyes	60940
	Greetings Prayon! Thanks for your concern. There's this follow-up question I'd asked to Kalos and CDBJ which I didn't get an answer, searcher I supposed gave an answer leading to another topic. My questions are these: 1.Is the 7 years of tribulation stated in the Book of Daniel has yet to come or this is the part of the 2300 years prophecy that was fulfilled when the Messiah came? 2. For CDBJ, where did he get the less than three years for that tribulation to occur? I pray that I'll get an answer soon. Thank you! inheavenseyes
5	cleansing of the sanctuary?	Matt 24:29	inheavenseyes	60939
	Greetings Searcher! Thank you for u'r answer though we're going far from the tribulation and here you started about the Cleansing of the Sanctuary. Let me ask if the Lord needed to give up all the power of Heaven for man to be restored then is it impossible then that there's cleansing need in Heaven? the cleansing is not for Heaven but for our restoration. Let me share you this: ¡°Cleansing of the Sanctuary¡± After His ascension, our Saviour began His work as our high priest. Says Paul, "Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us." Hebrews 9: 24. . . . For eighteen centuries this work of ministration continued in the first apartment of the sanctuary. The blood of Christ, pleaded in behalf of penitent be- lievers, secured their pardon and acceptance with the Father, yet their sins still remained upon the books of record. As in the typical service there was a work of atonement at the close of the year, so before Christ's work for the redemption of men is completed, there is a work of atonement for the removal of sin from the sanctuary. This is the service which began when the 2300 days ended. At that time . . . our High Priest entered the most holy, to perform the last division of His solemn work--to cleanse the sanctuary. . The coming of Christ as our high priest to the most holy place, for the cleansing of the sanctuary, brought to view in Daniel 8:14; the coming of the Son of man to the Ancient of days, as presented in Daniel 7: 13; and the coming of the Lord to His temple, foretold by Malachi, are descriptions of the same event; and this is also represented by the coming of the bridegroom to the marriage, described by Christ in the parable of the ten virgins, of Matthew 25. The cleansing of the sanctuary . . . involves a work of investigation -- a work of judgment. This work must be performed prior to the coming of Christ to redeem His people; for when He comes, His reward is with Him to give to every man according to his works. In the day of final reckoning, position, rank, or wealth will not alter by a hair's breadth the case of any one. By the all-seeing God, men will be judged by what they are in purity, in nobility, in love for Christ. MARANATHA, p.248 (AUG. 28th) God Bless! inheavenseyes
6	Where is this verse?	Matt 12:30	inheavenseyes	60938
	Greetings Chusarcik! You can find the verse in Matthew 12:30. God Bless! inheavenseyes
7	7 years of tribulation?	Matt 24:29	inheavenseyes	60851
	Greetings CDJB, Thanks for the answer though i supposed i'm confuse with which is which, there's a 7 years of tribulation that is yet to come or less than 3 years? Kalos and you both mentioned the book of Daniel which contains the prophecy on 2300 years that has taken place already during the coming of the Messiah. Where did you get this less than 3 years? Is their really text that talks about the exact years of tribulation before Christ Second Coming?
8	ways to have satisfaction	1 Tim 6:6	inheavenseyes	60850
	Greetings St. Julien, The Lord knows what's best for us but human as we are we want to get more than what is sufficient for us.The life that is centered in Jesus Christ need not to worry in nothingness and in abundance. True fulfillment is in Him. Here's an article from Bibleinfo.com for this matter. I pray that you'll find peace and contentment in Him. God Bless! inheavenseyes What brings contentment? Contentment is a gift from God and grows out of having His perspective on life.Philippians 4:12-13, NIV. "I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through him who gives me strength." Contentment grows out of humility and trust in God.Psalm 131:1, NIV. "My heart is not proud, O Lord, my eyes are not haughty; I do not concern myself with great matters or things too wonderful for me." Contentment grows out of devotion to Christ and eternal values.Matthew 6:24, NIV. "No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money." Coveting is a barrier to contentment.Exodus 20:17, NIV. "You shall not covet your neighbor¡¯s house. You shall not covet your neighbor¡¯s wife, or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor." Materialism is a barrier to contentment. 1 Timothy 6:9, NIV. "People who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction."
9	John 9 compassion divine authority Chr.	John 9:1	inheavenseyes	60849
	Greetings Sweet, Here's a commentary from John Darby Reagarding John 9. I pray it helps. God Bless! Inheavenseyes From John Darby's Synopsis of the New Testament. John Chapter 9 In chapter 9 we come to the testimony of His works, but as down here as a man in lowliness. It is not the Son of God quickening whom He will as the Father, but by the operation of His grace down here, the eye opened to see in the lowly man the Son of God. In chapter 8 it is that which He is towards men; in chapter 9 it is that which He does in man, that man may see Him. Thus we shall find Him presented in His human character, and (the word being received) acknowledged to be the Son of God; and in this way the remnant separated, the sheep restored to the good Shepherd. He is the light of the world while He is in it; but where, through grace received in His humiliation, He communicated the power to see the light, and to see all things by it. Observe here, that when it is the word (the manifestation in testimony of what Christ is), man is manifested as he is in himself, a child-in his nature-of the devil, who is a murderer and a liar from the beginning, the inveterate enemy of Him who can say, "I am." [See Footnote #36] But when the Lord works, He produces something in man that he had not previously. He bestows sight on him, attaching him thus to the One who had enabled him to see. The Lord is not here understood or manifested in apparently as exalted a manner, because He comes down to the wants and circumstances of man, in order that He may be more closely known; but, in result, He brings the soul to the knowledge of His glorious Person. Only, instead of being the word and the testimony-the Word of God-to shew as light what man is, He is the Son, one with the Father, [See Footnote #37] giving eternal life to His sheep, and preserving them in this grace for ever. For, as to the blessing that flows from thence, and the full doctrine of His true position with regard to the sheep in blessing, chapter 10 goes with chapter 9. Chapter 10 is the continuation of the discourse begun at the end of chapter 9. Chapter 9 opens with the case of a man that gives rise to a question from the disciples, in relation to the government of God in Israel. Was it his parents' sin that brought this visitation on their child, according to the principles God had given them in Exodus? Or was it his own sin, known to God though not manifested to men, that had procured him this judgment? The Lord replies, that the man's condition did not depend on the government of God with respect to the sin either of himself or of his parents. His case was but the misery which gave room for the mighty operation of God in grace. It is the contrast that we have continually seen; but here it is in order to set forth the works of God. God acts. It is not only that which He is, nor even simply an object of faith. The presence of Jesus on earth made it day. It was therefore the time of work to do the works of Him that sent Him. But He who works here, works by means that teach us the union which exists between an object of faith and the power of God who works. He makes clay with His spittle and the earth, and puts it on the eyes of the man who was born blind. As a figure, it pointed to the humanity of Christ in earthly humiliation and lowliness, presented to the eyes of men, but with divine efficacy of life in Him. Did they see any more? If possible, their eyes were the more completely closed. Still the object was there; it touched their eyes, and they could not see it. The blind man then washes in the pool that was called "Sent," and is enabled to see clearly. The power of the Spirit and of the word, making Christ known as the One sent by the Father, gives him sight. It is the history of divine teaching in the heart of man. Christ, as man, touches us. We are absolutely blind, we see nothing. The Spirit of God acts, Christ being there before our eyes; and we see plainly. Thus the effect of His power was to blind those who saw, who were full of their own wisdom, whose light was darkness; and to give sight to those who were born blind.
10	7 years of tribulation	Matt 24:29	inheavenseyes	60846
	Greetings kalos, So you mean the 7 years tribulation stated in Daniel 9 has yet to come? Isn't this part of the 2300 years prophecy that was fulfilled for when the Messiah came and the cleansing of the Sanctuary?
11	take as within a terrible marraige	1 Cor 7:3	inheavenseyes	60837
	Greetings Satana, Song of Songs has a wonderful thing to say what a man should take from a woman and vice versa, 6:3 "Iam my lover's and my lover is mine. Let me also share this article I got from cfm ministry,org... "So many people go into marriage with expectations that probably cannot be attained. Do you need to review with yourself what marriage is? Open your bible and study God's Word for marriage. Do you know your biblical role as a husband or wife? Did you go into marriage with the idea that "I'll try it"? Solid marriages are built with the knowledge that this is "FOREVER"! It is THIS FOUNDATION that keeps the two from wandering too far apart! What is YOUR true vision of marriage? Do you both share that vision? If you honestly desire to try and make your marriage work, you will need to examine yourself. Then, you will be able to honestly speak to your partner with humility, as to what YOUR role has been to bring the marriage to this point. Your own humility should be the base for the other person to examine his or her role also. This may not happen exactly in the time that you wish, but you must pray for this person and leave the rest to God! One of you is going to have to break the misery, the silence, the anger, the tears. Work on yourself to become the person that God has intended you to become as husband or wife. Make YOUR life the example! In God, everything is possible! Your marriage can become the marriage that our Father wants for you! Seek God everyday, obeying His Word and walk in His light. He can bear your burdens, He can heal the pain and He can bring you both to a brand new life. Give thanks to God today even for the trials in your life. God has a wonderful way of turning our bad times into such joy! Don't ever forget that! Keep Him your first priority.....always! Let the Lord build you home and you'll not be in vain(Psalm 127:1) I pray this helps! God Bless! inheavenseyes

13	follow-up on the signs	Matt 24:29	inheavenseyes	60752
	Pastor Glenn, Thanks for your answer however, can you explain what you mean by not asking if it has happened yet. Are we not to consider the famines, earthquakes and wars that has taken place and is taking place to be the fulfilled and and fulfilling signs of His Second Coming? You said the tribulation is just in a few years, when will these few years be? Thank you and I pray to hear from you again! inheavenseyes
14	How do i find Peace through Suffering?	Ps 69:1	inheavenseyes	60731
	Greetings Jaci, You'll find peace through suffering when you acknowledge that there's someone who suffers with you. Isaiah 63:9 says "... In all their affliction He was afflicted" He suffers with us and remember His hands that maybe at times just give a tap on us is a nailed scarred hand. He has been there and experienced the Ultimate suffering. In the midst of suffering we will be at peace knowing that ulltimately and intimately God is with us. I pray that this helps. God Bless! inheavenseyes
15	Let God do the talking	Ex 14:14	inheavenseyes	60729
	Greetings psalm9422, That's great to know, though more often than not we try to but in. God's will prevails! Peace be with you, inheavenseyes
16	On signs of the times	Matt 24:29	inheavenseyes	60728
	I read posts on the signs of the Second coming and one of these is in Matt. 24:29. May I ask if there had been any record that this prophecy had been fulfilled? We know of wars and famines has been and is already taking place,is there anyone who can supply me answer to this. Thank you! inheavenseyes
17	Following His Steps	Matt 16:24	inheavenseyes	60724
	Indeed following His Footsteps is Denying Oneself as He has Denied Himself for us to follow. Giving up all Heaven has to offer for a world who did not love Him. I like how Edward Gritt put his words so"let us all, as we are called to it, take up our cross and follow Christ. There is no other way to follow him but to the cross, for he went no other way. By that cross let the world be crucified to us and us to the world. We must bear the cross if we would wear the crown. Let us commit all our interests to the divine management, in readiness cheerfully to endure whatever he shall impose who for us agonized in Gethsemane and Golgotha, and to resign whatever he shall require who gave up heaven and life for us. Let us never consent to exchange the trials which he has prepared, for thrones and kingdoms. "By patient continuance in well doing" through all self-denying scenes, let us "seek for glory and honor and immortality." And it shall "be no grief unto" us "nor offence of heart" when we come to stand on the everlasting hills, by the side of the fountain of life, inhaling immortal joys, and looking back on the trials of the wilderness. When we shall receive the high rewards of faith and patience, and find heaven the sweeter for all the deprivations of this life, it will be no grief to us that we renounced the pleasures and portion of the wicked, and continued faithful amidst all sufferings and crosses. O that the glorious prospects of eternity might smooth down all the ruffles of our impatient minds,-might nerve us with fortitude to meet all the evils with which human life is beset, to bear all with patience, and into the hands of God to give up all our interests with filial submission. Let "none of these things move" us, "neither" let us "count" our own "life dear" to us, "so that" we may "finish" our "course with joy." And then "our light affliction which is but for a moment," will work "for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory," Finally, let us be supported and encouraged by the affectionate address of the risen Saviour to the church of Smyrna: "Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer.-Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life." Amen. May the grace of God help us to follow His Steps faithfully not because of the reward but because we Love Him and we want to be Like Him! Godspeed! inheavenseyes
