Demons and the WTS

by brotherdan in

i remember growing up and hearing all sorts of stories about demonic activity from people.

some would be experiences that people had going door to door and visiting a "witch" or "warlock".

some would inadvertently go to a fortune tellers door and have a demonic experience.. i was always facinated by all the stories.

brotherdan,

Save your breath, or should I say, save the tips of your fingers pounding on your keyboard.

Amen.

John 20:30-31 (New International Version)

30 Jesus did many other miraculous signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not recorded in this book. 31 But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.

So Paul may have been talking about heaven AFTER Jesus ressurection and assention?

Paul never believed until well after then.

Subsequently, he took a trip to heaven.

If Rick Joyner is correct, he saw heaven after judgement day.

How you getting on with those vids?

Paul equated paradise to third heaven.

Correct, they are one and the same.

2 Corinthians 12:2-4 (New International Version)

2 I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know—God knows. 3 And I know that this man—whether in the body or apart from the body I do not know, but God knows— 4 was caught up to paradise. He heard inexpressible things, things that man is not permitted to tell.

There were 3 heavens. The atmospheric heavens, the heavens where the stars resided, and the 3rd heaven which is where God resides.

I heard that explanation and variations on it (e.g. the demonic realm being the second heaven) a few times. As the bible doesn't talk specifically of the other two I was OK with that, although it never really grabbed me that much.

When I read this prophetic book The Final Quest, the explanation of the three heavens did immediately sit at home in my spirit. The first heaven is described as heaven, before the fall. The second is after the fall and the third is after the white throne judgement.

I would love to hear the perspective of a believer about that passage.

Maybe you should ask Church of God with Signs Following?

They might have moved on to the "deadly poison" by now?

How do you feel about this?

The Holy Spirit is for all who believe, Jew and Gentile alike Luke 11:11-13, Acts 2:38-39, Acts 10:45 as are the gifts of the Spirit 1 Corinthians 12 , 1 Corinthians 14

There is no division

Galatians 3:26-29 (New International Version)

Sons of God

26 You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus, 27 for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

Ephesians 2:11-22 (New International Version)

One in Christ

11 Therefore, remember that formerly you who are Gentiles by birth and called "uncircumcised" by those who call themselves "the circumcision" (that done in the body by the hands of men)— 12 remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world. 13 But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.

14 For he himself is our peace, who has made the two one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility, 15 by abolishing in his flesh the law with its commandments and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new man out of the two, thus making peace, 16 and in this one body to reconcile both of them to God through the cross, by which he put to death their hostility. 17 He came and preached peace to you who were far away and peace to those who were near. 18 For through him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit.

19 Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and aliens, but fellow citizens with God's people and members of God's household, 20 built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone. 21 In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord. 22 And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit.

Maybe need a new thread or PMs?

I realized today that I am one of the "other sheep" (John 10:16)

by Wrong Way in

and i have other sheep, which are not of this fold; those also i must bring, and they will listen to my voice, and they will become one flock, one shepherd.. .

i am not jewish.

i am gentile.. so, i am "other sheep".. thanks for reading!.

Chalam

I will answer: "BOTH!"

Nice :)

Galatians 3:28-29 (New International Version)

28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

Ephesians 4:3-5 (New International Version)

3 Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. 4 There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to one hope when you were called— 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism

Welcome xchange and Evidently Apostate!

"jehovah, jehovah save me"

No JW calls on the correct name, for any type of salvation :(

Mark 16:17 (New International Version)

17 And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues

Acts 4:10-12 (New International Version)

10 then know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you healed. 11 He is
" 'the stone you builders rejected,
which has become the capstone.' 12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."
