“RWC is not Catholic......”
Attitude and frame of mind, not denomination.
The fact that the existence of Israel today, and its survival for so many hundreds/ thousands of years is testament to that.
They are now back in the Land as prophesied long ago by God.
God protected them in the Six Day War.
The current history from the establishment of Israel as a nation up until today shows that God is NOT done with Israel.
Plus, their acceptance of Jesus as the Messiah has not yet happened. The prophesies concerning the establishment of the Messiah's kingdom have yet to be fulfilled.
You are smearing His Eternal promises laid out in the OT which I have quoted you in the past from which Israel will arise as a nation again ‘in the latter days’ - which we are in now, since 1948 to be exact.
Watch out “dawg” - you and your rabid objections to Scripture make me think you are one of those who will be cut to pieces since you just flat out refuse to listen to reason and get off of your last stand hill on Preterism, which is a very weak un-Biblical stance to take.
Here’s what God says about those who come against Israel (like your type) in the last days:
Zechariah 12:3
And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
Israel is Reborn in Ezekiel 36 & 37.
And of course more verses:
Jeremiah 23:3
Then I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all the countries where I have driven them, and I will bring them back to their fold, and they shall be fruitful and multiply.
&
Joel 3:1
“For behold, in those days and at that time, when I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem”
&
Ezekiel 11:17
Therefore say, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD: I will gather you from the peoples and assemble you out of the countries where you have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.’
Your entire baseline is not even Scriptural - but keep on digging. I see others have chimed in here to rebuke your nonsense too.
Actually you trolling my threads and posts to always interject your opinion, plus your nasty spewing of typical Preterist Hate makes you look more like the Roman Catholic lynch mob than anything I suggest.
You know where I stand but you always have to come here an spew your venom.
Psychological disorder perhaps?
True. As Peter makes clear, the chosen are whoever believes in Christ.
1 Peter 2:9
But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.
These clowns are something else.
This is a taste of things to come over the next several months.
The True Church who defends Israel against her enemies is going to be tested. Genesis 12:3 pronounces a blessing and a curse.
Last days living is not for the faint of heart.
The promises to literal Israel are conditional. It doesn't help that they are forever, because literal Israel can NEVER meet its end of the bargain.
So God created a New Covenant, which is open to all who believe in Christ.
Dispensationalism makes an idol of the secular state of Israel.
"And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s offspring, heirs according to promise."
Genesis 12:3
I will bless those who bless you, and him who dishonors you I will curse, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed
It’s not worth getting into a tit for tat with somebody who clearly is only posting emotional nonsense.
Roman Catholicism has always cursed Israel.
On the other hand, pastors who adhere to a pre-Tribulation Rapture typically do not close the door of their churches to those with differing views of Bible prophecy. When preaching about future things, they often acknowledge the existence of other viewpoints about Bible prophecy, something one never hears in churches that adhere to Replacement Theology either tacitly or openly.
We see that played out here on these threads. The mockery, derision, and venom displayed by the non-pre-trib rapture folks is kind of staggering.
Your citation from Genesis does NOT say "I will bless those who bless Israel," but those who "bless you" (i.e., Abraham).
WHO blesses Abraham?
John 8:39
“Our father is Abraham!” they declared. “No,” Jesus replied, “for if you were really the children of Abraham, you would follow his example.
Clearly, Genesis does not refer to those who are Abraham's children by blood, but those who are his children by spirit.
“Your entire baseline is not even Scriptural - but keep on digging. I see others have chimed in here to rebuke your nonsense too.”
Entire baseline? Was it when I quoted the words of Jesus?
And I read the comments on the thread. Plenty rebuked your nonsense. Was what Jesus said nonsense? You mean they meant absolutely nothing? Jesus really does not have full authority on Earth?
And your point is?
The new covenant does not replace the old, it adds to it.
Read Romans 11.
Grafting a new branch into an old tree - you don’t dig up and kill the root.
GOD’S promises to Israel stand.
“GOD’S promises to Israel stand.”
Yes, that is why he allowed the Romans to erase the Jewish nation in 70 A D.
Also why Israel was destroyed those hundreds of years B C.
The Old Convenant saves no one, because no one could meet its requirements. So whether it's "replaced" or not it irrelevant. It doesn't save.
Only the New Covenant saves people, Jew and Gentile alike.
Neither was John Calvin, and he slaughtered plenty of people in Geneva. And Martin Luther advocated for the killing of Jews and Christians that did not accept "his" novel reworking of the Gospel. So there's that.
John Calvin slaughtered no one. He was not a mass murderer as Catholicism likes to portray him in an effort to discredit what they claim are his teachings.
The Inquisition is known to be a black mark on Catholicism, one which Catholics gloss over when accusing and condemning others of the very thing they are guilty of, such as here.
Read another point of view and provide your proofs that it is wrong if you can.
Was John Calvin a Murderer?
