    Does Open Theism make us view eschatology differently?

    I agree but keep in mind that those who do not accept Jesus will at the age of one hundred will die. It is said that those who die at a early age of 100 have been accursed. Thus, one is only going to have the final (900 to 1000 yrs) as who will be sinners and die. I looked these up and like you...

    Does Open Theism make us view eschatology differently?

    Yes, something I have questioned myself about...Yet, even in the New Earth and Jerusalem, there will be no death and all who were on earth appear to be mortal. I suspect the Tree of Life and the new Covenant has something to do with this, yet we are not told specifically much of anything for...

    Does Open Theism make us view eschatology differently?

    I guess this is where you lose me Derf. In Rev 2:27, the letter to Thyratira, Jesus tells the church that "And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father." While Jesus does rule the millennium perfectly, Isa...

    Does Open Theism make us view eschatology differently?

    Isaiah's writing frequently jump from one prophecy to another. As in Isa 65:17-19, the time period is after the Millennium. after the White Throne Judgement. The old world of today is no more for a new earth has been created with no sea. Also, a new heavens have also been made.....rem,the 1st...

    Does Open Theism make us view eschatology differently?

    Derf: when you read Isa 65, what do you see? How is it written? to you! Yes, I have NO doubts about the Word of GOD and the fact that it is One Book that is integrated within itself throughout. It has so many wonders in it, so many mysteries. Rem, Jesus tells us the 'end from the...

    Does Open Theism make us view eschatology differently?

    We are speaking about the sheep and goat Judgements just prior to the millennium as well as judgements at 100 years into the millennium itself. Rem, at the beginning of the millennium, the only believers on earth are the Remnant of Israel. The Sheep are those nations and the people within them...

    Does Open Theism make us view eschatology differently?

    Isa 65:20....."There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the child shall die an hundred years old; but the sinner being an hundred years old shall be accursed." Notice that the first part speaks of a child shall die at a 100 years old...

    Does Open Theism make us view eschatology differently?

    which part? I'll start with the first part, the Sheep and Goat Judgement at the beginning of the Millennium.....His 1000 year reign physically on earth. Mat 25:31-46 No, I do not agree...It is in their minds and will only be remembered when the very possibility becomes true.

    Does Open Theism make us view eschatology differently?

    We are told those who do not accept Jesus during this period (100yrs) they will be thrown into the Lake of fire and Brimstone. While the threat of death is certainly a deterrent, the though of eternity in the lake of fire would bring on much worse thoughts and fears.

    Does Open Theism make us view eschatology differently?

    question Clete: God partially blinded Israel on the very first day Jesus rode into Jerusalem. Today they still deny Jesus as their Messiah and we are told that 2/3 of their population (future) will die because of it (indirectly). My question is: Could not God partially blind Satan? After all he...

    On the omniscience of God

    tri There was not trials necessary. as long as the murderer (accidental or otherwise for as you said it was to avenge a family member)stayed in the city he was safe. Even years after a life in the city did not keep the avenger from spilling the killers blood if he left the city. Would like to...

    On the omniscience of God

    In the OT, "an eye for an eye" was in full effect. Yet, God chooses to establish sanctuary cites where this vengeance was not permissible. What does this say your thoughts?
