To: The Theophilus
You folks love to quote Romans 11:26, but read the previous verse "...until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in."

That means that there will come a time when Gentiles will stop coming to Christ (interesting implications to the Free Will cabal's theories), then, according to many interpreters, there will be some measure of revival among the ethnic Jews

πλήρωμα
play'-ro-mah
From G4137; repletion or completion, that is, (subjectively) what fills (as contents, supplement, copiousness, multitude), or (objectively) what is filled (as container, performance, period): - which is put in to fill up, piece that filled up, fulfilling, full, fulness.

As we can see, your interpretation of the passage is completely off the mark...

It is NOT when the Gentiles lose interest in God, it IS when All of the Gentiles who are coming into the Body of Christ have arrived...(And then the Rapture)

And some measure of revival for the ethnic Jews???

Rom 11:26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
Rom 11:27 For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.

Looks like it is a revival for ALL of the Jews...

If you leave off the private interpretation and just believe what it says, you'll get a far better understanding of what God is saying...

The problem with your 'Satan is bound' fantasy is that you pick one side of the issue and leave out many of the verses that allow a student of the scripture to understand what's really going on...

You decide that Satan is bound so you pick out some verses and try to use them to prove that...

Eph 6:11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Satan is real and alive and here right now...We are given the tools to protect ourselves from him and his minions...

Satan was bound and cast into darkness...

against the rulers of the darkness of this world

The Darkness Satan was cast into is the Earth...The Earth is Satan's domain until God sends him into 'outer' darkness...

A little bible study will clear up any false notions of what the scriptures mean...

"have arrived"? Why do I hear the theme song of the Jeffersons here?
