ECT The Gospel Preached at Pentecost

Great stuff; the northern polar star of the Bible...

 

[God's Truth]

Was 'government' your idea or a translation? 'economia' is usually a dispensation, an arrangement, a management, a way of running a household...

I choose that particular translation out of many because it revealed more truth to me, and it coincides with Isaiah 9:6.

Weymouth New Testament
for the government of the world when the times are ripe for it--the purpose which He has cherished in His own mind of restoring the whole creation to find its one Head in Christ; yes, things in Heaven and things on earth, to find their one Head in Him.

Get to know the text better:

The irony...

OK, that's fine. Again, so long as you detach from any one government here on earth. 'Reign' might be better (it IS better for 'basileiu') because then it is not about a civic authority with GPS boundary coordinates. It is a force, an authority. Or like Rom 1: a power. The Gospel is a power out there in the world that cannot be undone because it is historic fact.

This 'reign' of Christ began at his resurrection, Acts 2, as the enthronement David envisioned. Thus the same power that caused that event is also at work in us individually, not only in this age but the one that is coming.

[Right Divider]

'Government' may be OK, so long as you keep detached from this world--a government on this world. More important, is that the context says this is already true in this age as well as the next.

I hope RD is viewing because I would add this to the Jn 4 and Heb 9 about those things which are overlapping now and will be totally true in the future in a way that cannot happen now. I had forgot this one.

Matt 19:28 (AKJV/PCE)​

(19:28) And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

Matt 25:31 (AKJV/PCE)​

(25:31) ¶ When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: ​

I must say that you are arguing about words and should not be. Who would think that Jesus is a ruler over just one government?

Matthew 28:18 Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.

Ephesians 1:21 far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come.


We also do not have to learn another language to know God's Truth.

The mystery is Jesus is the Lamb of God. The mystery is NOT "we no longer have to obey".
