Jesus did come back in that generation as he said. He is here with us now. He lives with us. We can't see him physically of course but one day we will.🤗
I’m gaining so much info and insight into how approach this book through your teachings, Dr. Gore! May He continually bless and use you to bless others to learn from your teachings. Soli Deo Gloria!!!
Thanks for touching on the Replacement Theology issue. When people use that term, it’s their way of trying to shut down the conversation. Anyone familiar with the Old Testament and with the LXX will know immediately that the term ekklesia (church) is not some new concept; it goes all the way back to the time of Moses’ day. When Jesus said that he will build his church, the disciples weren’t scratching their heads saying “what’s a ekklesia (church)?” They knew exactly what he was referring to, especially because their translation of the Scriptures was the LXX; therefore, they were very familiar with what he was getting at.
Thanks for these lectures, Bruce. I always find a little of myself in these teachings. Unfortunately it is usually the aspects of the self that need improvement.
Excellent teachings. It is truly a world of information that brings The Holy Scriptures alive as it really is. GOD Bless you my beloved brother. Trying my best to store up all of your teachings ad much ad possible. If you have them recorded digitally and for sale, please let me know where I can purchase all of them. Great thanks.
If we pray for the Jews to come in large numbers to believe in the true Christ is a good and the right thing. But we should pray similarly to all other peoples adverse to Christ Message such as the Muslims and others!
love this one israel theme jew and gentile one in christ but is god still going to bless israel as a nation in future revival as i presume he is coming back to stand on mount of olives ..maybe will get my answers as i go through this teaching in revelation
At 42:47 Bruce, you refer to baptism as having the seal of the Holy Spirit inscribed on you which should give us great comfort and great peace knowing we have that inscription written on us when we are baptized - God autographed you at your baptism. So, in other words, are you saying that all infants are saved when they are baptized because that is what it sounds like?
There is nothing we do that 'guarantees' regeneration. That is God's sovereign business. 'They were born, not of the blood (race), nor of the well of the flesh (human efforts), nor of the will of man (human authority), but of God.' (John 1:13). God normally works through standard means, however (e.g., baptism, nurture and admonition of the Lord, etc.), so parents are assured that as they act in genuine faith and responsible parenting, they may confidently rest in the assurance that 'the promise is to you and to your children.'
@@GoreBruce So, in other words, if a person believes in the gospel they will be saved, whether they are baptized as infants or not. My question is, when is a person saved?
A person is 'saved' in the past based on God's predestination (Romans 8:28-30); a person is saved in the present when they are regenerated, which may or may not be tied to the moment of baptism (Romans 6:1-11); a person will be saved in the future when they enter glory.
The people who claim that, 'it's replacement theology', cannot see the grand pan of redemption for humanity. Those who were born before the covenant of Moses who are now in the kingdom of heaven, have they replaced the Israel of God? No most certainly not but they are counted in the faithful believers. Just like the believers from that nation have received the promise so have those who were pre and those who are after that nation. We { all believers by faith in Christ the redeemer } are counted in the Israel of God. All to be acknowledged and testified by The Messiah at the great judgement seat. Are you a sheep of the LORD or are you a goat of the world? Cause He is the judge, fullstop. Not you or me or any other person who thinks they know who is going to be in God's kingdom.
Just finished listening for 2nd time thru. Cudos for keeping up with your Calvinist-Preterist paradigm. I did research your claim about the Philadelphia name change. That was a double Pinocchio. Wiki says Vesapian (70AD era) gave it a cognomen (surname) of Falvia, as opposed to the previous emperor name of Caesar. A cognomen would be ADDED to the name, not replaced, as Philadelphia-Flavia. So your early date claim is still in wanting, IMO. Second, the scripture claims the hour of testing upon the whole world, and you fairly identify world in that context as Roman World. YET, NERO's persecution (mid-late 60's) was LOCAL, NOT across the empire. Domitian (96ad+) was across the empire and short. Strike two on early date. Finally, while I am not a dispensationalist, I found the Calvinist puff plug for reformed theology not being called replacement theology unconvincing. Reformed teaching does replace Israel as the elect in the eye of God with any person who believes as the seed and elect, and I question that Calvinist-Augustinian predestination claim. The promise to Abraham is not spiritual alone (reformed model), but physical AND spiritual. There is always a true-Jew-remnant (Rom 9), but there are also the promises and covenants given. You quoted Gal 4 about the heavenly Jerusalem, and rightly so, the NEW has replaced the OLD is system, purpose, function, but Paul continues in v28 28 Now you, brothers and sisters, like Isaac, are children of promise. Why specify Isaac if the promise is from faith as Abraham performed? Why? Because linage, heritage, ethnicity MATTERS to GOD. Abraham-Isaac-Jacob >> Nation of Israel, the elect (For a purpose, not for individual salvation). This is the physical path. So Paul in Gal 4 confirms the OT and NT teaching that Israel is spiritual and Physical, with the greater Jew being a new covenant/heart circumcised/New Jerusalem NT believer. BUT, he quotes Is 54:1, which means what? ‘Sing, barren woman, you who never bore a child; burst into song, shout for joy, you who were never in labour; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband,’ says the Lord. Speaking of more children from a desolate barren woman (House of Israel) over Judah who was never divorced. The barren woman in Isaiah refers to Hosea 1, the House of Israel, the unfaithful northern tribes, who are divorced and barren, yet multiply physically across the earth as gentiles per the physical birthright and promise. Thus Gal 4 ,under the new covenant, is a physical and spiritual fulfillment of his elect (physical Israel) believing and all foreigners who believe and come into the new Jerusalem. This is called Two House theology, naming Israel as the House of Judah (Jews) and House of Israel (Scattered in 700's BC). Two House accounts for God's elect physically and spiritually in both OT and NT era. Reformed only accounts for his elect spiritually in OT and NT, and totally dismisses any promises to ethnic Israel past 70AD. The gospel has gone to the world, all nations, ethnicities, and at the same time, God has kept his promises to Israel in the New covenant and called a remnant, spiritually, from the multiplied and fulfilled promises of Gen 12, 17, 48 to be sand of the sea.
Thank you for that. On the question of the persecution under Nero, please see A.T. Robinson, Redating the New Testament, Westminster Press, 1976, pp 221 ff, and the sources he relies on, including Clement and Tacitus (Annals, xv.44).
The first part revelation as In John saying he was in ( currently his time ) The tribulation with them shows it was in late 60s . Futurist snarl at time statements and can't stand it or straight words of the apostles or Christ himself reminds me of pharassies
So there's no future great tribulation coming upon the whole world? Hmm......Revelation is the very last Book in The Bible and is mainly all futuristic.
Jesus did come back in that generation as he said. He is here with us now. He lives with us. We can't see him physically of course but one day we will.🤗
Man I’m so thankful for these studies! I live down in Portland but if I’m ever up north imma go outta my way to spend a Lords Day with you all!

George Bissah I am honored to hear from you, sir. Thank you!
Powerful teaching
These non-original thoughts are well presented. Sunday school lessons are also neat. Keep up the good work
Blessed.
Thanks for these lectures, Bruce. I always find a little of myself in these teachings. Unfortunately it is usually the aspects of the self that need improvement.
why is that unfortunate? To me that would be a fantastic thing!!
@@Day12My When I find self in these teachings I pause the video take a moment of reflection and pray for forgiveness or it as a blessing

Absolutely!
I'm starting to smell esotericism, but I'm still curious, so I'll keep watching.
Hmmm...and I thought I'd heard of every 'ism' out there!
Fact of matter is there was a remnant that would be saved those in faith . And gentles made the other whole now aka the church
Please explain what the Apostle Paul say about the Gentile Christian being "Grafted In" ... was Paul contradicting himself?
Paul is simply using a metaphor for his consistent teaching that Gentiles become members of the commonwealth of Israel by faith (cf. Ephesians 2).
love this one israel theme jew and gentile one in christ but is god still going to bless israel as a nation in future revival as i presume he is coming back to stand on mount of olives ..maybe will get my answers as i go through this teaching in revelation
Blessing comes individually through faith to the Jews and Gentiles!

Romans 2:28-29 shoots down dispensationalism. Along with Romans 8-11.

Yes, that is certainly a view taken by some, but not all, commentators on this book.
