John UK wrote: 1) John, you really need to be careful with words and how you put them together. Here is what you said: "It is appointed unto us all to die, and Jesus died." You see how you've tied in the death common to all men because of sin, with the death of Jesus? If you didn't mean that, why add "and Jesus died"? 2) As for saying that it is those who believe who have the Son, I can assure you that devils believe far more about Jesus Christ than you do, and they tremble. 3) John, it is time for you to begin trembling, over your sins and over your unbelief and over your rebellion against God. Until you feel able to cast yourself on God's mercy, shown through the substitute of Jesus Christ, when he died for sin, you will only ever have a man-centred faith, one which can never save. 1) Jesus came in the likeness of sinful man, yet He was without sin. He suffered for our sins by dying like a sinner.“For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures,” 1 Corinthians 15:3 2) “Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.” Mark 16:16 3) So you are saying there is something I can do to be saved? |

John UK wrote: John, you say, "It is appointed unto us all to die, and Jesus died, except He was without sin." That is a dreadful statement! And heretical! It is appointed unto MEN to die, and that, for their sins. Read these two verses an hundred times. Hebrews 9:27-28 KJV (27) And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: (28) So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Stating a fact is now heretical? Jesus did die. The Just for the unjust. However, because Jesus alone was sinless and faultless before God the Father, He was worthy to be raised from the dead. Now if you are without the Son, you are not a child of God. Who has the Son? Those who first believed! |

John UK...Different analogy. Gentiles weren’t even a part of the picture yet either. It really doesn’t matter what I wish because God has grafted Gentiles into the olive tree regardless of how I would feel about it. Now if you ask me, I thank God for it! “As regards the gospel, they are enemies for your sake. But as regards election, they are beloved for the sake of their forefathers. For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.” Romans 11:28-29 Please understand, this is not talking about the church but Israel who is beloved for the sake of their forefathers. Why?! Because the gifts and calling of God are irrevocable. Capeesh? |

Yes, we are all one in Christ. However:“For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.” Romans 1:16 The gospel is to the Jews first. “There will be tribulation and distress for every human being who does evil, the Jew first and also the Greek, but glory and honor and peace for everyone who does good, the Jew first and also the Greek.” Romans 2:9-10 The Jewish people are prioritized over Gentlis. The reason Gentiles are saved is because they have been grafted into the cultivated Jewish olive tree. |

John UK...“And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.” Revelation 21:2 To answer your question, the new Jerusalem. It is God’s covenant with Abraham and not with John UK. If God is through with the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, maybe you could let Satan know so he doesn’t have them surrounded by the armies of the world in the Battle of Armageddon. Maybe you should tell Jesus so He doesn’t waste His time coming again to save them because they are not His people! |

John UK...You do realize that Galatians 4 is symbolic?! “which things are symbolic. For these are the two covenants: the one from Mount Sinai which gives birth to bondage, which is Hagar—” Galatians 4:24 Furthermore, it says in Hebrews that Abraham didn’t receive the promise...yet. He will though! “And God gave him no inheritance in it, not even enough to set his foot on. But even when Abraham had no child, He promised to give it to him for a possession, and to his descendants after him.” Acts 7:5 God has promised to do so. |

John UK...1) Everlasting covenant? “The covenant which He made with Abraham, And His oath to Isaac, And confirmed it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel for an everlasting covenant, Saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan As the allotment of your inheritance,” And say, “Save us, O God of our salvation; Gather us together, and deliver us from the Gentiles, To give thanks to Your holy name, To triumph in Your praise.”” I Chronicles 16:16-18, 35 The land is a promised inheritance to Israel and will be received fully when the remenant of Israel calls out to Jesus to save them physically from the armies of the Gentiles which will surround her and be in process of destroying her people. Then Jesus will return! 2) Retire it? Hardly, it will be fulfilled! 3) New Covenant? “In that He says, “A new covenant,” He has made the first obsolete. Now what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.” Hebrews 8:13 However, God’s promise to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is everlasting. It is not the old covenant with Israel whereby they practice the sacrificial Mosaic Law. |

John UK...In verse 13 Jesus is talking to the Pharisees. Then He says something to those who believe Him, not the Pharisees. “Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”” John 8:31-32 Then, I believe, the Pharisees chime back in. “They answered Him, “We are Abraham’s descendants, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How can You say, ‘You will be made free’?”” John 8:33 Then Jesus acknowledges that they are Abraham’s descendants. Although, that does not make them physically the children of the promise. Ishmael was a descendant, but the promise came through Isaac. So there is no reason to “see” a contradiction. It’s not good to tell Jews that the only way for them to be saved is through faith in Jesus Christ? |

John UK...Are you talking about those Jews there who believed? “Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed.” John 8:31 You never finished your point. It’s all a variation of replacement theology. You are of the ilk that God didn’t actually replace Israel because Israel was always the church. Same difference! God didn’t bring the children of the church out of Israel. He didn’t let the church cross over into the Promosed Land. The church consist of those who are now part of the one body through baptism into Christ. That wasn’t even possible before Pentecost, but I don’t suppose that will stop you! |

Dr. Tim...Fact: Jesus did not have offspring. End of story. Jesus is the Son of God. Those in Christ are also heirs with Him. Your proof-text says: “Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,” Hebrews 2:14 Those aren’t the Son’s children. Rather the Son becomes like the children so that He might save them. Therefore, Jesus has no physical or spiritual offspring. Only brethren. John UK... The Abrahamic Covenant is nonconditional for all Israel will be saved. Though they are unfaithful, God remains faithful! You don’t support the cultivated olive tree, it supports you. So if God is finished with Israel, then even the church has no hope. The promises were not made to the Gentiles, correct? Yes! Your quickening is preticated off of you being in Christ. It is when one believes that they are then placed in Christ and not before they believe, so they can’t be quickened prior to faith. You can’t make yourself born again, yet there is something you can do to become born again. That is believe! |

John UK...All of that stuff about God having to magically make Abram spiritually alive, so that Abram could hear God’s voice and respond to it is extra biblical, made-up nonsense. Yes, God has not forgotten Hos everlasting covenant. God has not forgotten it. The covenant wasn’t about mutilating his wee wee! Although Abraham followed through with that as a sign. The covenant was what God was going to do for Abraham. “Then the LORD appeared to Abram and said, “To your descendants I will give this land.” And there he built an altar to the LORD, who had appeared to him.” Genesis 12:7 It’s about what God will do for Abraham and his descendants. Abraham didn’t make the covenant and neither could he break it. Just like how there is nothing you can do to earn your salvation, there is nothing you can do to lose your salvation. That is because it is all about what God does and has promised. |
