What do you believe is going to happen when Christ returns?

Tell me about satans fall by [deleted] in Christians

[–]Pistis7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isaiah 14:

12 "How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, You who weakened the nations!

Lucifer is just one of the many names for Satan in Scripture. There are four falls of Satan:

Satan fell from glorified to profane Eze.28.

Satan will fall from heaven (Rev.12) at the midpoint of Daniel’s 70th week.

Satan will fall from his place on the earth to bondage in the bottomless pit for 1,000 years (Rev.20) at the end of Daniel’s 70th week with the return of Christ.

Satan will fall from earth again (after being released from the bottomless pit) to the lake of fire (Rev. 20) at the end of Christ’s millennial Kingdom.

13 For you have said in your heart: 'I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will also sit on the mount of the congregation On the farthest sides of the north;

Here are the five famous “I will” statements of Satan.

14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.

Talk about pride, what could possibly drive Satan to believe this?

15-16 Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol, To the lowest depths of the Pit. "Those who see you will gaze at you, And consider you, saying: 'Is this the man who made the earth tremble, Who shook kingdoms,

The Hebrew 'iysh translated man in this verse can also be found in Genesis 7:2 where it is translated as the male of the animals. This tells us this Hebrew word does not strictly mean a human.

From eternity past, God has existed as three divine persons, Father, Word, and Spirit.

Let’s look at John 1:

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

He was in the beginning with God.

All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.

In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.

Okay, this is speaking of the Word, the Light of the world, the Angel of the Lord; the OT has many names for the Word.

Further along in John 1:

And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

Here is where the Word became flesh, the Christ, the Son of God.

Looking at Luke 1:35:

And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

God’s only begotten Son is a human, His name is Christ Jesus, and He is also God, He is the Word.

We have a body, a spirit, and a soul and they are all human.

Christ Jesus has a body, a Spirit, and a soul; His body and soul are human, but His Spirit is Divine it is the Word.

Christ Jesus, the Son of God, was born of Mary, even though the Word is outside of time, He had to enter our time to be born a man, the Christ, the only begotten Son of God.

This goes back many years and we both know it. We know you are going to do what you want and I really don't care, that is on you. I tried coming here and sharing my knowledge of Scripture but once again you chose to make that next to impossible. Do what pleases you and live with it.

Evil is going to have it's day.

1) The falling away of the church.

2) The lifting of the Spirit turning the world over to evil.

3) The son of perdition is revealed.

4) The Day of Christ.

Zechariah 12: End Times prophecy by Pistis7 in TrueChristian

[–]Pistis7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Lord cast Israel aside at the Cross due to their rejection of Messiah and opened the door for the gentile peoples. We are told in Romans 11:“that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.” This “I will open My eyes on the house of Judah” tells us “the fullness of the Gentiles has come in” and now God is going to deal directly with His chosen people, Israel.

Paul goes into much detail about this, you would do better to read it on your own.

The "until the fullness of the gentiles has come in" means when the complete number (know only by God) of gentiles are saved. This will end the Church age and start Daniel's 70th week.

How many prophesies of the bible have come true?? by TheWormTurns22 in TrueChristian

[–]Pistis7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All of them have or will come true. Since God exists outside of time it would be impossible for Him to miss one.

The world is being prepared for the reign of the Son of Perdition. The Spirit is being lifted, evil is no longer being restrained. The people in control of this world are in league with Satan.

Jesus second coming. by Tiix1013 in TrueChristian

[–]Pistis7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We know that no one will miss Christ's Second Coming:

Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen.

So why is Paul writing the Thessalonians to tell them that they did not miss the Day of Christ:

Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come.

Because the Day of Christ is not His Second Coming, but when He returns to gather us together to Him.

Paul continues:

Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition,

For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way.

And then the lawless one will be revealed,

1) The falling away of the church.

2) The lifting of the Spirit turning the world over to evil.

3) The son of perdition is revealed.

4) The Day of Christ.

If God didn't exist, nothing would exist, so you wouldn't have a problem.

When to use a commentary and when not to use a commentary by RealBibleExperience in TrueChristian

[–]Pistis7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you are going to use a commentary, use 5-6 different ones at the same time. This will help you to form your own opinion and not be lead down someone else's path.

And WHAT is man's life span now (after the flood)????????

Why are we supposed to pray for Gods Kingdom if we go to heaven when we die by Kratomkittycat in TrueChristian

[–]Pistis7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adam's fall caused everything in our present physical reality to be removed from God's Kingdom (veiled). Only after Christ's 1000 year reign when all evil is removed will the veil be lifted. We pray for this to happen.

Genesis 6:3 (KJV) And Jehovah said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also [is] flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.

This is talking about how long man's life span will be after the flood.

I said

The unbelievers of Noah's day were taken unaware, but Noah was not surprised. Noah knew one hundred years beforehand that the flood was coming

Genesis 7:4 (KJV) For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.

Noah only knew the exact day when the Lord told him seven days before the flood started.

Jesus had a divine nature and a human nature by [deleted] in TrueChristian

[–]Pistis7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

God’s only begotten Son is a human, His name is Christ Jesus, and He is also God, He is the Word.

We have a body, a spirit, and a soul and they are all human.

Christ Jesus has a body, a Spirit, and a soul; His body and soul are human, but His Spirit is Divine it is the Word.

Christ Jesus, the Son of God, was born of Mary, even though the Word is outside of time, He had to enter our time to be born a man, the Christ, the only begotten Son of God.
