Disasters are there to wake people up, to show them what God can do .He wants them to realize who he is and that he has control. He wants them to turn to him in repentance .
There is no "Mother Nature in her beserk rage". This is fairy tales!
Which movie did you watch this week? The day after tomorrow or Deep Impact?
Zecharyah wrongly claims that I believe in **SUPERSESSIONISM**
Two Wrong Kinds of Covenant Theology:
Today, two false brands of covenant theology are leading some conservative Evangelicals to teach false ways of salvation that the Holy Spirit condemns in Galatians chapter one. The false doctrine of dual-covenant theology teaches that Jews are saved by their observance of the Old Testament law, while Gentiles are saved by faith in Jesus Christ. Another aberrant teaching called One Law Theology, embraced by Messianic Jews and tolerated by growing numbers of Evangelicals, teaches that Gentiles in effect must become Jews in order to be saved.
Dual-Covenant Theology:
Televangelist John Hagee's dual-covenant statements have been reported in a Houston newspaper. Hagee said, "I believe that every Jewish person who lives in the light of the Torah, which is the word of God, has a relationship with God and will come to redemption," and "I'm not trying to convert the Jewish people to the Christian faith." The news article went on to report: "In fact, trying to convert Jews is a 'waste of time,' [Hagee] said.
However, in John 14:6: Jesus says, "I am the the Way the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father **EXCEPT THROUGH ME**!"
One Law Theology
The movement called Messianic Judaism has gained increasing popularity among Evangelicals over the past forty years. Most Messianic Jews embrace what is called "One Law Theology." The main teaching of One Law Theology is that both Jews and Gentiles are required to observe the entirety of the Old Testament law. Messianic Jews define sin as any violation of any part of the first five books of the Old Testament. They insist - wrongly - that this is what the New Testament teaches. They even go so far as to teach that the Apostle Paul remained a law-keeping Pharisee to the end of his life!
One-Law Theology has many destructive consequences. Many Messianic Jews teach, for example, that a Gentile believer in Christ must be circumcised in order to be a member of the covenant. They also observe the Old Testament Jewish feast days. They hold their worship services on Friday evenings or Saturday mornings rather than on Sunday, the New Testament Lord's Day. And in their teachings they avoid the use of the term, "the cross" because they consider it to be a Gentile term, and they emphasize the use of Hebrew terminology in their teachings.
Many Evangelicals have taken a tolerant attitude toward these doctrinal deviancies, and some have adopted the position that any criticism of Messianic Judaism is anti-Semitic. This is not a legitimate charge. There is nothing anti-Semitic about honest, Biblical criticism of any theology that seeks to bring elements of the Jewish law back into the Christian faith, and this certainly applies to an honest and Biblical evaluation of the theology of Messianic Judaism. Anything that brings the Old Testament Jewish system back into the Christian faith is a denial of the Gospel.
REPLACEMENT THEOLOGY OR SUPERSESSIONISM
Punitive **SUPERSESSIONISM** suggests that Christians replaced Jews as God's chosen people in this new covenant era and that, other than their coming to Christ, God was finished with any further plan for Jews after the first century.
However, God will miraculously save 144,000 Jewish evangelists during the Great Tribulation and God's 2 Witnesses during the Great Tribulatiuon will definately be 2 famous Jews who will be Moses and Elijah.
I was a missionary in Israel and I will make a wild guess that only about 4,000 Jews in Israel and about 25,000 Jews inthe USA are truly born again. There are presently about 6.5 million Jews in Israel, about 6.5 million Jews in the USA and about 2 million Jews in the rest of the world for a total of about 15 million Jews.
During the Great Tribulation two thirds of the approximately 15 million Jews will be killed but one third or about 5 million Jews or **ALL ISRAEL** that is left will be saved with the help of Moses and Elijah and 144,00 Jewsish evangelists and thousands of Gentile evangelists.
Romans 11:25-28: I do not want you to br ignorant of this mystery, brothers, so that you may not be conceited: Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of Gentiles has come in {See Revelation 7:9-18}. And so **ALL ISRAEL** will be saved... As far as the Gospel is concerned, they are enemies on your account; but as far as election is cocerned, they are loved on account of the Patriarchs, for God's gifts and His call are irrevocable!!
Zechariah 13:8-9: In the whole land," declares the Lord, two-thirds will be struck downand perish; yet one-third will be left in it. This third I will put into the fire; I will refine them like silver and test them like gold. They will call on My name and I will answer them; I will say, "They are My people,' and they will say, "The Lord is our God!'"
And so I am not a **SUPERSSESIONIST** who believes that God was finished with any other plan for the Jews after the first century!
No, I didn't watch some movie, I've been following Immanuel Velikovsky's work, the Thunderbolt Project and related science finding connections to what is predicted in the Bible and ancient civilizations.
I'm glad I gave you the opportunity for stupid sarcastic remarks.
Act stoopid - stay stoopid
Act ignorant - stay ignorant
Prophetic 7744 quit being dic and post in the right section rather than the same post in EVERY section. It is irritating to all and even more irritating that you think it's the Christian thing to do.
I forgot to add that sometimes disasters could mean another Job moment ..
Anyways..What about this Ancient Civilization timeline?
I don't take that into consideration much but willing to hear what you have to say since it seems important . Look at all the hype about the Mayan Calendar or Y2K. Isn't this type of stuff fodder for fear mongering though? I am all ears as it won't shake me , just have concerns for others.

Who is Israel to you? The gentiles are already grafted into the House of Judah and House of Israel. So we are all one nation. There is your Israel aka New Jerusalem.
Grace and Zech have called me some very nice names such as:**PROPHYLACTIC** **IGNORANT** **STUPID** **STOOPID** **CHILD OF HELL** **HYPOCRITE** **PETTY** **TRIVIAL** **IDIOTIC** even though about 95 percent of my posts are the Living and Enduring Words of God. But they were very careful not to call me a **FOOL**!! which is understandable; for Jesus says in Matthew 5:23: "And anyone who says **YOU FOOL** will be in danger of the fire of hell!"
Matthew 5:11-12: Jesus says, "Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. **REJOICE** and **BE GLAD** because great is your **REWARD**in heaven!"

But according to Webster's dictionary calling some an **IDIOT** is exactly the same as calling someone a **FOOL** since they are exact **SIN**ONYMS**!!
Matthew 5:11-12: Jesus says, "Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. **REJOICE** and **BE GLAD** because great is your **REWARD**in heaven!"
Zech refuses to accept any criticism for saying we are saved by our own good works or that Jesus is not God or that the writings of Paul, which is half of the New Testament, is not inspired by God. And anyone who does is a complete **IDIOT**!!
2 Timothy 3:15,16: 4:1,2: You have known the **HOLY SCRIPTURES**, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. **ALL SCRIPTURE IS GOD-BREATHED** and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of His appearing and His kingdom, I give you this charge: **PREACH THE WORD**!! {**WHICH IS THE ENTIRE NEW COVENANT AND NEW TESTAMENT**!!} Be prepared in season and out of season, correct, rebuke and encourage--with great patience and careful instruction. For the time will come when people {Like Zech} will not put up with sound doctrine!!
See there you go again prophetic7744 posting your personal off topic slander in the middle of others conversations. It's like you are demon possessed and can't stop yourself. We all try to show you love, but you don't receive it and love back. Rather you are disrespectful, rude, obnoxious and now play the victim?
