Bible Question:
inheavenseyes, I've answered your questions. Please answer my two questions. 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? ... The 7 years of tribulation has not come. ... Where do you get "2300 years prophecy that was fulfilled when the Messiah came" ... I believe Daniel wrote this in the 6th century BC 2. For CDBJ, where did he get the less than three years for that tribulation to occur? ... CDBJ said "will last less then three an a half years ... "3½ years or the last half of the seven years". Divide the tribulation into half; with the latter being greater ... there are those that say He will return at the midpoint for His church ... some think the 1,000 year reign will occur at the midpoint. Where does Scripture say Christ went to heaven for our restoration? ... or did I misunderstand when you said "the cleansing is not for Heaven but for our restoration" |
Bible Answer: 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 Erathly 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 |
