It is not prophecied that God will place a unrepentant, Christ rejecting Israel in their lands, but that he will put his spirit in them and return them. This obviously IS NOT what occured in 1948.

If the word "and" is separating events, then verses 17-19 must be separate events since they all start with the word "and".

Now Mike, you know Jim only deals in subterfuge.

At this point, I dont think it matters what is said to him. He believes what he believes, and will not be budged.

But like you said, perhaps someone will be blessed by it.

Galatians 3:29 And if ye be Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

1 Corinthians 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

Just as a husband and wife are one flesh, the church is also one with Christ. So how is it Christ is not yet married to our souls?

I doubt youll agree, so Im just gonna opt out of the discussion.

You have been quick to say over and over that someone cannot remarry even if they divorced on biblical grounds (fornication). Where is the verse in scripture that says one cannot remarry even if they divorced on biblical grounds?

And in Franks case, having divorced before being saved, after being reborn and given a clean slate, wouldnt he be free to remarry now that he is a new creature? Am I missing something?

And our numbskull leaders insist this is a religion of peace.

Some times I wonder if you really believe the silly things you post.
