How God’s Righteousness Blinded Israel

0 Spot It!

Israel was blind-sided by the righteousness of God. We cannot charge the failure with God. He published his message throughout the entire land during the first century evangelism campaign of the Apostles. However, as Paul explained what happened to Israel in Romans 11 and 2 Cor. 4:4.

For those of the remnant who accepted the righteousness of God, the Bible demonstrates “who” righteousness is and “how” it was obtained. Unfortunately, many, zealous for the Law of Moses, stumbled in their failure to see the end of that which was passing away.

They could not grasp that God had designed a righteousness through the law and the prophets but which was apart or separate from the law and the prophets. This lessons sheds insight on the truth Israel was blinded to and how we can prevent the same blindness.

Prophecy and the House of Prayer
In Isaiah 56, Isaiah prophesied of the coming kingdom of God. He saw the time when all nations would come into the kingdom of God. What is unique is that the northern kingdom, foreigners and Eunuchs were all considered outcasts. Yet, God would bring them all into the body of Christ and allow them to enter into the house of prayer. God’s house of prayer is the goal of eschatology. It is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth, (1 TIm. 3:15). It corresponds with the kingdom. For more information see house of prayer.

Coming on the Clouds of Heaven
How should we understand the statement of the Lord which says Christ is coming on the clouds? Is this a literal visible coming of the Lord? Are these literal clouds? Many believe that Jesus will one day descend from heaven. Today’s study investigates this topic and raises some very important questions. It begins with a note from the Old Covenant Literature and ends up with a focus on the timing. See also coming on the clouds of heaven article which offers a list of time parameters.

Eschatology and the Faith
The relationship of eschatology and “the faith” is quite interesting. It shows there is an objective reality to “the faith.” This is the meaning of what Paul says is “one faith.” This faith is directly related to the fulfillment of Christ’s coming. In Galatians it was the “the faith being about to be revealed” meaning that its fullness would arrive at the return of Christ. The time before the arrival of the faith is called the Law or Old Covenant system which served as a tutor to bring them to the soteriological and eschatological equivalent

End of the World 2012|Population Control
Why should anyone be concerned with population control if we have an end of the world 2012 event? Scientists concerned about the rise in population in the year 2050 seek solutions for the expected 10 billion people who occupy the earth’s real estate. Seems scientists don’t have much faith in the alleged Rapture or End of the World 2012 Mayan Calendar. They are looking for practical, but not necessarily (in my opinion) humane ways of taking care of what they feel will be a burden on the world’s resources. If the earth will be destroyed next year and the Rapture occurs soon, what

Birth Pangs of the Church and the Last Days
Birth Pangs of the New Creation The analogy of the birth pangs in Romans 8, demonstrate very clearly that the last days events of resurrection, the coming of the Lord and birth of the new nation or creation was imminent. Dispensationalists skew the meaning of the text by focusing on geopolitical and socioeconomic events of the current time. Eschatology in scripture is not a subject for modern media news headlines, yet, many get their vision for the end directly from the most sensational news story. Mello Means About to Be, An Event Soon to Occur At least three times, God indicated the imminent

Are These The Perilous Times of the Bible?
People believe that we are living in the perilous times of the Bible. They are taking cues from the earthquakes in Haiti, bad weather, and other catatrophes. Israel is a central focus of politics and Iran becomes the scapegoat. The world is anxious and scrambling for answers. All they get are more doom and gloom prophecies. To add some sanity to this picture, the Biblical text requires more equitable handling. The insights from the study on Romans 8 helps the Bible student to get a good grasp on the time of the last days. Romans 8 falls within the same end times pattern. See Are We Living in the
