    I have yet to see a dispensationalist agree that John 5:28,29 teaches a general resurrection and judgment.

    Surely you don't hang all your theology on just one verse?

    Revelation 20:5-7 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years. And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,

    There are two resurrections separated by a thousand years. It is plainly described right here.

    So I base my doctrine on two very clear verses from the mouth of my Lord Jesus Christ and you base your doctrine on three verses written in symbolic language from a book written primarily in symbolic language. But you still have not a single verse of Scripture that shows the pre-trib rapture!

    Actually it is not "My Doctrine". It is the doctrine the Baptist churches held until John Nelson Darby developed his dispensational doctrine. And unlike dispensationalism the early Baptist fathers did not have to invent a "parenthesis" church to support their doctrine.

    Actually DHK, the first resurrection and only resurrection to date is that of Jesus Christ. Those who have part in the first resurrection are the "true believers". The second death, the lake of fire, has no power over the Saints.

    They are very clear verses. They speak of a resurrection of the just and a resurrection of the unjust; not one but two resurrections. Your interpretation of that same passage is flawed. Jesus speaks of two resurrections in that same passage.
    Again you speak in absolutes, statements that you cannot prove and have no evidence for. Have you evidence that there is no church before Darby that did not believe in two resurrections? I don't believe you do. So stop with the uncertain babble. Back up your statements with evidence or don't make them.
    I have already proved you wrong once, and still you sputter out false statements. What a shame.
    Read the link I gave you. Get an education!
    http://www.biblestudymanuals.net/dispensation.htm

    I'll quote from it again:
    [/SIZE]

    Christ is the "firstfruits of the resurrection."
    When he comes again, believers will be raised to meet him in the air (the rapture) according to 1Thes. 4:16-18.

    1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
    --We will be caught up together to meet the Lord in the air. The Lord at this time does not come to earth, not to the Mount of Olives (Zech.7:14--does not split the mount), does not defeat the enemies of Israel, does not save Israel, does not come in the glory of His Father with the Holy Angels (Mark 8:38)

    Rather, when he does come again, over 1,000 years later it will be with vengeance:
    2 Thessalonians 1:7-10 And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.
    --A completely different description as you can see.
    He comes with his angels this time.
    In flaming fire taking vengeance on those that do not obey the gospel.
    Meting out everlasting destruction to these unbelievers.

    The two scenes are very much different. They are a thousand years apart--just like the two resurrections are a thousand years apart.

    Man you guys have been busy! I don't look at this thread for 2 days and it doubles in length! :eek:

    Anyway, in all the discussion between DHK and OR (good discussion BTW. Just, gentlemen, try to breath! Don't break the keyboards.) I think the below was missed or perhaps just skipped over. How has this not been addressed?

    This poster clearly believes in TWO gospels! Galatians 1 is pretty clear on what that means.

    I don't even know where to begin... To call this a complete lack of understanding of scripture and mangling of the biblical story would be an EPIC understatement!

    And who gives a rip what the "Four Spiritual Laws" tract says about the "coming Kingdom"? The tract is for the gospel, not to educate the unbeliever in eschatology! Of course you don't understand that since you, insanely, think that there are two gospels, one "of the Kingdom" and another of the Gentiles or whatever you wish to call it. That, sir, is completely false. One savior, one kingdom, with one gospel for all time.

    You deny that Jesus is presently reigning, but again scripture says otherwise:

    Acts 2:32-36 (HCSB) 32 “God has resurrected this Jesus. We are all witnesses of this. 33 Therefore, since He has been exalted to the right hand of God and has received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit, He has poured out what you both see and hear. 34 For it was not David who ascended into the heavens, but he himself says:

    The Lord declared to my Lord,
    ‘Sit at My right hand
    35 until I make Your enemies Your footstool.’


    36 “Therefore let all the house of Israel know with certainty that God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah!”

    Ephesians 1: 20-23 (HCSB) 20 He demonstrated this power in the Messiah by raising Him from the dead and seating Him at His right hand in the heavens— 21 far above every ruler and authority, power and dominion, and every title given, not only in this age but also in the one to come. 22 And He put everything under His feet[l] and appointed Him as head over everything for the church, 23 which is His body, the fullness of the One who fills all things in every way.


    And is anyone else amused that the two dispensationalists both through out Augustine's name, but saying one saying he was a "replacement theologian" (queue evil music and screams) the other saying he was a dispensationalist! :laugh:

    I've heard good things about Pink, but have yet to read any of his stuff myself. Going to have to look into the links this week.

    I've read several of his books, if you love the types and allegories of scripture he's your man, begin with 'Gleanings in Genesis', a foundation in the scriptures that will serve you well. Many others are good, 'Sovereignty of God', 'Elijah', 'David', 'John', 'Hebrews', he was a prolific and gifted writer.

    John 5:28, 29
    28. Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,
    29. And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.


    Yes but the resurrections occur at the same time DHK, the HOUR in the which ALL shall HEAR his voice And shall come FORTH.

    You can't slice and dice that in the typical manner of dispensational eisegesis, DHK!


    Make up your mind am I speaking in ABSOLUTES or UNCERTAIN BABBLE?

    You have proven nothing except you are devious in your responses.

    The Bible is my link!


    Jesus Christ is the First Resurrection and that is a fact.

    Repeating Scripture and assuming they prove a pre-trib "snatching away" of the Church proves nothing except that people have fallen for Darbyism!

    Good post RLB. You see in beameup exactly what I see. And of course Jesus Christ is reigning now. Where would we be if He were not?

    And of course RLB, Mr DHK wants me to use the Moody Handbook to "eddicate" myself. Now I believe Moody was dispensational and have no idea whether the handbook is tainted or not. If I mention Baptist Confessions I am following the teaching of men rather than Scripture but then there is the good ole reliable Moody Handbook. [​IMG]

    I believe the reference to "Moody" is a reference to either Moody Bible Institute or Moody Publishing House. It has nothing to do with the author or the person. Surely you have heard of books like "Zondervan's Bible Atlas," but I don't think the author is "Zondervan."
    The author of the book is Dr. Paul Ennis, a conservative pastor and scholar.
    You shouldn't mock him.

    Yes, OR, Jesus was reigning when Muslims attacked the WTC, wasn't he?
    That is your kind of kingdom. Every year 1000 Christian girls are kidnapped and "forced" into converting to Islam. That is in Pakistan alone. They are raped; sold off as wives to young men who beat them into submission. That is your kind of kingdom with Christ on the throne. You can have it.
    It is not the kingdom that Christ speaks of or the Bible speaks of. It is Satan's kingdom; the one that you live in at this present time if you would open your eyes and see what is really going on.

    And thus your ignorance.
    There are two resurrections that Jesus spoke of, and neither one of them is His.
    If you say that one of them is His, that leaves you only in the second one--the unjust. Is this what you are telling me? You can't be involved in two resurrections OR!
    [qute]Repeating Scripture and assuming they prove a pre-trib "snatching away" of the Church proves nothing except that people have fallen for Darbyism![/QUOTE]
    Repeating yourself won't do any good to reconcile two passages of Scripture.
    I gave you Scripture. You can't reconcile the two passages can you?
    All you can do is mock and shout.

    BTW, the quote from the website is in bold and large fonts because that is the way it copies and pastes into the board, not because I deliberately put it that way. I just don't take the time to try and change everything back to smaller fonts.

    Your response to my claiming the Bible as "My Link" speaks volumes about you DHK!

    Are you denying that Jesus Christ is the First Resurrection? It appears so from your above response since Orthodox Christianity has long accepted that Scripture is Divinely inspired by God. The Apostle Paul tells us:

    1 Corinthians 15:3-6
    3. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
    4. And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
    5. And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:
    6. After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.
    7. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles.
    8. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time.


    Now can you present any Scripture showing that any other dead person has been brought back to life with a glorified body like that of Jesus Christ and who did not die again?

    That sounds like you are questioning my Salvation DHK. As a moderator you should know that warrants banning. Shall I report you or are you man enough to report yourself?

    They certainly cannot be used to support the so-called pre-trib "snatching away" of the Church. Neither you nor anyone who calls themselves a dispensationalist can provide a single passage of Scripture that teaches a pre-trib "snatching away" of the Church.

    I repeat my earlier remarks to Bro. Bosley!

    And I leave you with the following from an earlier post!

    Why? You would never have learned about "covenants" unless some book or some person would have taught you. Perhaps you learned it from a "link." Don't be so arrogant!
    Tell me what "covenant" did God make when he spoke to Moses in a burning bush? He didn't. But he will never do it again. He spoke to him during that time, according to Heb.1:1 in that dispensation.
    Why do you keep quoting from Dr. Ice? and providing us with his link?
    Why do you keep quoting from Baptist Confessions of Faith or at least referring to them?
    I provide you with one source, and you are alarmed at it and won't read it.
    That shows how closed-minded you are. Your remark is totally unwarranted and only reflects on your own character.
    John 5:28-29 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.
    --There are two resurrections mentioned here: one to life and one to damnation. If Christ is the resurrection of life, then you are of the one to damnation. I don't believe that. So, no; His resurrection is in a class of its own.
    We are speaking of "Because Christ rose and lives, we also shall rise and live eternally. He is the foundation and cause of our resurrection. Paul spends much of the rest of the chapter speaking of the resurrection of the dead, not Christ's resurrection.
    As above I am showing you the fallacy of your argument, and how you change topics in mid air.
    1 Thes.4:17-20 and 2:Thes.1:6-10. These passages of Scripture you cannot reconcile. You won't even try. Until you do why should I even listen to? Don't you believe the Scriptures?
    Prove that they don't. I don't have to accept your word. Show from Scripture, the ones I gave you, that they are the same event or refrain from making false statements. Fair enough?
    A contradiction from the statement you made at the beginning.
    Take a good look at what you just said, and then take a good look in the mirror and ask yourself what a hypocrite is. You just referred us to the Baptist Confession of Faith, but if I refer you to Moody's Bible Handbook, you mock and scorn. What does that say about your character? I don't need the hypocrisy here. Read the link I gave you.
    And what is that supposed to prove.
    According to Rev.20:1-4, it proves your interpretation is wrong.

    Learning about Covenants from the Bible!

    This is how you learn about Covenants. You read a book called the BIBLE!

    Ge 17:13* He that is born in thy house, and he that is bought with thy money, must needs be circumcised: and my covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.
    Ge 17:14* And the uncircumcised man child whose flesh of his foreskin is not circumcised, that soul shall be cut off from his people; he hath broken my covenant.
    Ge 17:19* And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him.
    Ge 17:21* But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, which Sarah shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year.
    Ge 21:27* And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them unto Abimelech; and both of them made a covenant.
    Ge 21:32* Thus they made a covenant at Beersheba: then Abimelech rose up, and Phichol the chief captain of his host, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.
    e 26:28* And they said, We saw certainly that the LORD was with thee: and we said, Let there be now an oath betwixt us, even betwixt us and thee, and let us make a covenant with thee;
    Ge 31:44* Now therefore come thou, let us make a covenant, I and thou; and let it be for a witness between me and thee.
    Ex 2:24* And God heard their groaning, and God remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.
    Ex 6:4* And I have also established my covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their pilgrimage, wherein they were strangers.
    Ex 6:5* And I have also heard the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians keep in bondage; and I have remembered my covenant.
    Ex 19:5* Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:
    Ex 23:32* Thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor with their gods.
    Ex 24:7* And he took the book of the covenant, and read in the audience of the people: and they said, All that the LORD hath said will we do, and be obedient.

    Ex 34:10* And he said, Behold, I make a covenant: before all thy people I will do marvels, such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation: and all the people among which thou art shall see the work of the LORD: for it is a terrible thing that I will do with thee.
    Ex 34:12* Take heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land whither thou goest, lest it be for a snare in the midst of thee:
    Ex 34:15* Lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go a whoring after their gods, and do sacrifice unto their gods, and one call thee, and thou eat of his sacrifice;
    Ex 34:27* And the LORD said unto Moses, Write thou these words: for after the tenor of these words I have made a covenant with thee and with Israel.
    Ex 34:28* And he was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights; he did neither eat bread, nor drink water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten commandments.

    Le 24:8* Every sabbath he shall set it in order before the LORD continually, being taken from the children of Israel by an everlasting covenant.
    Le 26:9* For I will have respect unto you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and establish my covenant with you.
    Le 26:15* And if ye shall despise my statutes, or if your soul abhor my judgments, so that ye will not do all my commandments, but that ye break my covenant:

    Le 26:45* But I will for their sakes remember the covenant of their ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the heathen, that I might be their God: I am the LORD.

    This is how you learn about Covenants. You read a book called the BIBLE!

    De 4:13 And he declared unto you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, even ten commandments; and he wrote them upon two tables of stone.
    De 4:23* Take heed unto yourselves, lest ye forget the covenant of the LORD your God, which he made with you, and make you a graven image, or the likeness of any thing, which the LORD thy God hath forbidden thee.
    De 4:31* {For the LORD thy God is a merciful God;} he will not forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which he sware unto them.
    De 5:2 The LORD our God made a covenant with us in Horeb.
    De 5:3* The LORD made not this covenant with our fathers, but with us, even us, who are all of us here alive this day.
    De 7:2* And when the LORD thy God shall deliver them before thee; thou shalt smite them, and utterly destroy them; thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor shew mercy unto them:
    De 7:9* Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations;
    De 7:12* Wherefore it shall come to pass, if ye hearken to these judgments, and keep, and do them, that the LORD thy God shall keep unto thee the covenant and the mercy which he sware unto thy fathers:
    De 8:18* But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.
    De 9:9* When I was gone up into the mount to receive the tables of stone, even the tables of the covenant which the LORD made with you, then I abode in the mount forty days and forty nights, I neither did eat bread nor drink water:
    De 9:11 And it came to pass at the end of forty days and forty nights, that the LORD gave me the two tables of stone, even the tables of the covenant.
    De 9:15 So I turned and came down from the mount, and the mount burned with fire: and the two tables of the covenant were in my two hands.
    De 10:8* At that time the LORD separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of the LORD, to stand before the LORD to minister unto him, and to bless in his name, unto this day.
    De 17:2* If there be found among you, within any of thy gates which the LORD thy God giveth thee, man or woman, that hath wrought wickedness in the sight of the LORD thy God, in transgressing his covenant,

    1Sa 4:4 So the people sent to Shiloh, that they might bring from thence the ark of the covenant of the LORD of hosts, which dwelleth between the cherubims: and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were there with the ark of the covenant of God.

    Need I go on? There are about 200 more where those came from.

    Now how does one learn about dispensationalism? Not from the Bible but from John Nelson Darby and the Scofield Reference Bible.

    Didn't learn a thing about covenant's. I only learned that you are good with a search engine and like to post verses in bright red which is hard on the eyes.
    That is not how you teach a person about covenants. And I highly doubt it if that is how you learned "covenantal theology," if indeed you understand any.

    Going back to the OP, that is page 1!

    In God's own good time He gives us the promise of a New Covenant!

    Jeremiah 31;31-34
    31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
    32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD:
    33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
    34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.


    And the ultimate sacrifice for the sins of God's chosen ones, Christ Jesus, tells us this:

    Matthew 26:26-29, NASB
    26. And while they were eating, Jesus took some bread, and after a blessing, He broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; this is My body.”
    27. And when He had taken a cup and given thanks, He gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you;
    28. for this is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for forgiveness of sins.
    29. “But I say to you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in My Father’s kingdom.”


    And again we read:

    Hebrews 8:1-13
    1. Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;
    2. A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man.
    3. For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is of necessity that this man have somewhat also to offer.
    4. For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law:
    5. Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount.
    6.But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.
    7. For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.
    8. For finding fault with them, he saith, Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:
    9. Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, saith the Lord.
    10. For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:
    11. And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.
    12. For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.
    13. In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.


    Hebrews 9:11-15, NASB
    11. But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things to come, He entered through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation;
    12. and not through the blood of goats and calves, but through His own blood, He entered the holy place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption.
    13. For if the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled, sanctify for the cleansing of the flesh,
    14. how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
    15. And for this reason He is the mediator of a new covenant, in order that since a death has taken place for the redemption of the transgressions that were committed under the first covenant, those who have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.


    The New Covenant promised in Jeremiah 31 is instituted through the blood of Jesus Christ and the above Scripture cannot honestly be denied.

    14 pages of personal attacks, "you don't understand what dispensationalism/covenant theology is", ban ban ban, heresy, etc etc.

    Debate the issues, please! We act more like wolves instead of sheep in here. Enough is enough already. Emerson once said: “Let me never fall into the vulgar mistake of dreaming that I am persecuted whenever I am contradicted.”

    Ppl on this board seemingly cannot WAIT to play they "I'm being persecuted" card. GROW UP!!!

    Try again to reconcile these two passages.
    It is at least the third time I have asked you.
