1 | The Lord will execute a short work? | Rom 9:28 | Ray | 111014 | ||
In comparing Romans 9:28 with Mark 16:20, what would you say about the difference between "confirming" the word and "executing" the word? Romans 9:28, NKJ, "For He will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness, Because the Lord will make a short work upon the earth." Mark 16:20, "And they went out and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them, and confirmed the word by the signs which followed." From the heart, Ray |

2 | The Lord will execute a short work? | Rom 9:28 | JCrichton | 111016 | ||
Hi, Ray! While Romans 9:28 is talking about God choosing a new people from among the Gentile (not to exclude the remnant of Israel) and that has been determined by the coming of Christ [executing] (though it was foretold thousands of years before that Yahweh would allow the rebellious Hebrews to forsake Him while He would take onto Himself a new people, it was not until the arrival of Jeshua that such prophecy would take place or be executed); Mark 16:20 talks about the word being verified by the signs (the same signs that were prophecised: healing, preaching, baptizing, bringing the scattered sheep to the Good Shepherd... these signs would confirm the Word--that is the beginning of the fulfillment of the prophecies, as these are on-going till the completeness of time); these signs would do two things: 1) demonstrate that the Kingdom of God is at hand, and 2) authenticate the disciples' origins: that is, that they come in the name of the Lord! God Bless! Angel |
