This expression in Rom 11, say the D'ists, is certainly the trump. Surely God means to restore a theocratic kingdom to Israel and Christ enthroned in Jerusalem for that. But what paragraph is it in and what is said with finality in that paragraph? Rom 9-11 is about the question of why so...

When this National Geographic piece narrated by Morgan Freeman left the Abrahamic religions, it said that they were essentially occupied with the apocalypse or day of judgement. He moved on to those which were cyclical by starting with the Mayans. On closer examination, he might have noticed...

A statement was made this week by what would otherwise be known as a rape victim. In this case, however, he was homosexual. He is Norwegian. 4 years ago he was attacked by a Somali immigrant. He was raped. But now he, the victim, feels guilty, that he and his wealthier people have 'caused'...

In another thread, a participant asked why passages in Joshua and then the prophets were being quoted which show that the land promises to Israel had been fulfilled already (before the NT). (I Kings 4) is one of many verses from the OT that show that geo-political things promised to Israel in...

NT Eschatology Prop # __: "Saved" in Romans 11 (Isaiah) is justification from sins The wobbly position of D'ism is that 1, it desperately needs Rom 11 as a proof text (actually just v26), which it tries to balance precariously on 'saved' being a restored theocracy in Judea. This is not what...

THE JIHAD OF THE SOUL What they are struggling with Marcus Sanford, March, 2016 ask@interplans.net In the 2012 movie BAKHITA, a west African slave girl winds up in Louisian France in a wealthy house where she is nanny for a widower. Bakhita was captured by Islamic slave lords and later...

Although I have heard the criticism that this depiction denies the deity of Christ (I'm not sure where the language is on that), the historic background is strong. In the 3-4th decade in Jerusalem, the way for the Sanhedrin to stop a movement was to find a similarity to what had happened with...

I mean really, Christ just blows it time and again. First it's the fulfillment of the Isaiah prophecy, then its the whole country of Syria, both toward the launch of his ministry, and now we've got him using a Greek name for Peter to base the church on. He's so un-MAD.

What Peter is saying in Acts 3:21 is very significant for the whole Bible. He says that the reception of Christ by heaven on behalf of sinful man has been expressed by all the prophets since the world began. There it is; it's a lot to swallow. It is what the Bible had been saying since Genesis...

In Mt 4, Jesus reaches tons of Gentiles and Galileans, and at least 'all' of one (Gentile) country. This is utter confusion. Doesn't he know about dispensations and about Acts 7? Good grief, what a mistake. Is 9 must be 'spiritual' not physical Gentiles; solved! Isaiah? It can't be Isaiah...

http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=lohse+not+yours+to+give This is a dramatised account of Edward Ellis' biography of David Crockett's political life in the 1830s, after life on the wild frontier. Crockett kept government and its spending to a minimum...

I followed a bit of the PBS Nature episode Mar.1, and all it did was reminded me how self-blinded scientists can be. 'The palantir only showed Denethor what Sauron wanted him to see--as another weapon to overthrow Gondor.' In Patagonia, there is lots of buzz about recently found titanosaurus...

I'm referring of course to the 'industry' that has popped up since the 60s of thinking that modern Israel has something to do with many OT texts about which the NT has already spoken, or with obscure lines from the Revelation. One of the reasons it became 'needed' was that about 100 years ago...

1, Rom 11 is prodding not prediction 2, Gal 3:17 is the true RT issue 3, Isaiah shifts Davidic promises; it is not a recent or even a Paul idea 4, Acts 26 shapes Israel's outcome 5, The "people" of Mt 21 are Christians 6, Rom 2 is about both Jew and Gentile on the day of judgement 7, 2 Pet 3 is...

Who made a mess of the Promise here?

VALENTINING A STRANGER Marcus Sanford Interplans.net Feb.14.16 There were plenty of other things to see at that moment. There was a 180 view of the shoreline from 150 foot elevation. Although it was Valentine’s day and low cloudiness, there were already some interesting colors resuming from...

He does the same thing here to the 'Berlin Wall' as he did to climate change when he was in Alaska. Not only is his history mistaken, the references by others to an event are not understood; in the case of the Muir quote in Alaska, he was anachronistic. Only such a 'professor' of the...

Here is sanity about racism in America. Now, suppose the article had been about homosexuality as claimed by the same intellectuals who claim racism and are evolutionary and are atheist. Can anyone 'translate' the chronic mistakes into that issue...

Review of PERFECT SENSE 2011, written by Kim Fupz Aakeson By Marcus Sanford, www.interplans.net Here is a secular apocalypse of sorts which is told through the relationship of a couple, and never leaves their point of view very long. Catastrophic events do not happen directly, but...

Mt 24A etc is about the 1st century conflict, the Great Revolt. B is about the worldwide judgement of God, which was expected right after A but with the allowance for a delay, which we now know is what happened. There is nothing but confusion about eschatology if this is overlooked. Likewise...
