1 | How do we open eyes to truth? | Deut 7:2 | Morant61 | 24417 | ||
Greetings Martha! I hate to sound like I am picking on you, but once again you have made a statement that I would like to see in Scripture. You said, "This is an evil world and will not end until every single person knows Christ, and they will." Where exactly does the Bible say that? Do you mean in the sense of accepting His Lordship or simply acknowleding His existence? Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

2 | How do we open eyes to truth? | Deut 7:2 | Martha | 24425 | ||
Zechariah 8:1-23, God is talking about the future everyone will know him, he will rule and have a world of peace. Read Malachi and Revelations. "Thus says the Lord of Hosts: 'People shall yet come, Inhabitants of many cities; The inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, "Let us continue to go and pray before the Lord, and seek the Lord of Hosts. I myself will go also." Yes, many peoples and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord of Hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the Lord.' "Thus says the Lord of hosts; In those days ten men from every language of the nations shall grasp the sleeve of a Jewish man, saying, "let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with You. Zechariah 8:20-23 God will be physically be with us and we will be able to pray in front of him. |

Greetings Martha! Zech. 8 is a reference to the millenial kingdom. During it, nations will recognize Israel as being God's people. Do you think this means that everyone will be Christian? Will this situation last, since Rev. says that after the 1,000 years there will again be war (Rev. 20:7-10). p.s. - I love Zechariah! :-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Keep reading, all the way up to Rev 21. It also says there will be a second death, which will be the ultimate death for all the evil ones. The ones remaining will be Christ's bride, and he will rule. Yes, at the end, only Christians will remain. This is what I was talking about when I said Hank will see it and so will I, we will awake again, and if we do not receive the second death, we will see it. I'll do anything that it is in my power not to receive it. Obey God, with all my heart, all my might and all my soul. The war after the millenium is to get rid of all the ones who slipped by during the millenium. They will be tempted by the Devil again, and if they cannot control temptation and follow God, they will receive the 2nd death. |

Exactlty Martha! This whole thing, every situation and circumstance is leading up to the fulfillment of God's plan, which we know, at least in part...is to do away with evil once and for all. We can not stop it, terrible things are coming upon this earth. The wrath of God coming upon the wicked. We are now feeling the beginning of birth pangs I believe. But what we can do is adhere to God's word and trust in Him. Why are people having such a hard time with that Martha? Why is it so hard to believe that if you trust in God...all will be ok. We do not have to add to the chaos, nor should we...at least in that respect. We do not have to live by the sword, or in fear or in darkness. Why do they think they must fight and mame and kill as the heathen do? I am having a hard time with this one Martha. Thanks for listening coop1 |

People must fight and defend themselves because even though we are Christians we are still human beings. We are afraid God will say no to our prayers, we are afraid He will not listen and we are not strong enough to leave everything up to him, Holy Spirit or not. God sometimes will not listen to us, and he will let others kills us or get punished by them. Remember the two guys in the fire? They wouldn't pay attention to the government and worship other gods, and they said God would defend them and if he did not and die it would be the same to them? We're not strong enough to say that. God saved the two guys by going into the fire with them. Don't have time to look for it in the Bible. By the way we cannot change other people's point of view. Relax and ask God for understanding and wisdom in this area. |
