quote=AK4; And if you do, do you realize that according to Christian teaching God loses the majority? Is your god that weak? Do you really believe nations is not symbolic of something else and that its literal and that every single nation will surround the corrupt abominable physical city of Jerusalem who God says is WORSE THAN Sodom, Gomorrah, and Samaria? Theres more as we go further into your post….
The weak imaginary god of the so-called Christians, who crawled into the womb of some supposed virgin, where He, who they reckon was an immortal god and co-creator of the cosmos, couldn’t even create a human like body for himself, but had to get his father who they reckon was the other co-creator of the cosmos to prepare a body for him. Their imaginary god couldn’t beat a fly with a broom stick, let alone the true Co-creator, “The Destroyer,” who is symbolised by the serpent and who destroys the old, only in order to make way for the new, much the same a “Shiva”.
And yes, the nations that will surround Jerusalem, are not symbolic of something else, but are the literal nations that will surround Jerusalem, which city, the Lord has punished severely for her former indiscretions and has forgiven her prostitution with the gods of the other nations and is prepared to protect his bride and will, “When”? In the great tribulation, after which, the nations of the earth that survive, will send their representatives, to go up to Jerusalem each year to worship and pay tribute to my Lord and King, who rose Jesus from death and will rule the whole world with justice.
quote=AK4; Think about this and let the scriptures answer for you and not mans reasonings. If you answer these questions with the scriptures it will tell you where and what heaven is, where is the His true temple, where God dwells and know that that physical carnal abominable city over there in Jerusalem is not where Gods temple is. Also
1. Where does Gods dwell?
2. Where is the temple of God?
3. Who and What is the temple of God?
4. Where is the heaven? [heaven through out scripture is almost always plural]
The Divine animating principle that pervades the entire universal body, was in, or rather, was the infinitely dense, infinitely hot, infinitesimally small singularity of origin that was spatially separated by the Big Bang and has become the entire universe and all therein. It is that universal animating life force/soul, to which all the information that is gathered through the senses of all the living creatures that it evolves into, and it rules the world at any given point in time, through the most high species that it has become. Before mankind, the eternal spirit ruled the world for 3 million odd years from within the body of the most high, which at that time was the dinosaurs; the upright walking reptile.
The kingdom of God is within you, we, the human body are his temporary tent/tabernacle, where He dwells behind the veil to the inner most sanctuary of his tabernacle until his son has built for him his new Temple of Light, of which Jesus, was the first fruits to be chosen from the dead past of the “Son of Man,” who is the first born Son of God. Jesus is the cornerstone to the new Temple in which God will dwell on earth among mankind and not within.
Jesus, the first of many brothers who are chosen from the body of mankind to inherit their share of the immortal body of God’s son, which is torn asunder and poured out as fire on all those who believed his words/spirit that came down from the eighth eternal heaven of light, which is in the far distant future of we, who live according to three dimensional time.
And the spirit/words that will quicken our mortal bodies, came down from He, in the eighth eternal heaven of unapproachable light, in who, we of his dead past dwell, but who, in our time, is the spirit that is developing within the body of mankind in this the seventh heaven in his ascent to the eighth eternal heaven, for as he dwells in us, in our three dimensional time, so too, we dwell in him, in his fourth dimensional time.
And that Manna/words that came down through space and time, were spoken through his obedient servant Jesus, who we once knew as a man and who, according to Acts 3:13; has been given divine glory by the God of our ancestors, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and who is now incontestably divine.
No man has ascended to heaven except, and that one exception was Enoch, who ascended to the ends of all things where he witnessed the universe roll up as a scroll, where the elements became so excited they burnt up and fell as massive columns of fire beyond all measure in height and depth into the great Abyss/Black Hole, where all that existed was condensed back to the infinitely dense, infinitely hot, infinitesimally small singularity, where the Son of Man, the Most High in the creation said, “Let there be Light” as he witnessed the resurrection of the universal body in which He, the supreme personality of Godhead, had developed.
The eternal spirit which was in the beginning and is the divine animating principle that pervades all that was, is, and ever will be, is the life force/soul, to which all the information that is gathered through the senses of all the living creatures that he has evolved into, and Enoch was the first human spirit to be gathered to that evolving spirit, and Enoch was the cornerstone to the Temple that is the Son of Man, as in his ascent to the ends of this universal cycle, all the spirits of mankind were gathered to him in his evolution from man to supreme God.
But to attempt to equate the man Enoch to the “Son of Man” who, at the end of his evolution is the supreme personality of Godhead, would be comparable to equating you, to the very first organic molecule that was formed in the noxious primeval soup of the earth, from which molecule you have evolved.
It is that glorious simulacrum the great androgene in the eighth eternal heaven of light, who dies in the process of involution in order to be the saviour of we, in the process of evolution. This he does, by releasing from the least to the greatest, those elect and chosen spirits from which he was formed, and Enoch, who was the first to be reborn on earth in the man Jesus, was the least in the kingdom of God, which is the eighth eternal heaven of unapproachable light. The sacrificial Lamb of God diminishes into nothingness, as the new species of Light beings develops upon the earth.
