Sam, I have heard many times and I think that you will agree that only Christ knows whether anyone has the mind of Christ as you say or as I say, filled with Holy Spirit.
<<Paul said we would have the mind of Christ. Now he also is liar if this isn't true. The fact you haven't experienced it does not negate the fact that it is your Messiah. Also this confirms the new covenant if you will. God says he will write his laws in our minds and hearts and we will be His son. When this happens do you question you will have the mind of Christ? Sam>>>>>>>
I was recently asked why there is no record of Christ's second coming. It is plain to me that Jesus had told His Church that when they saw the abomination they were to:
"Matthew 24 "15?Therefore when you see the ?abomination of desolation,?œ spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place? (whoever reads, let him understand), 16?then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 17Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take anything out of his house. 18And let him who is in the field not go back to get his clothes. 19But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days! 20And pray that your flight may not be in winter or on the Sabbath. 21For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect?s sake those days will be shortened."
It is plain that the Christians did as they were told and God resurrected and translated them into Heaven. Who was left to leave a record of their departure. Even if it was reported I do not think that a Jew who did not believe in Jesus would report anything. However there are two records, one of them being a Jewish General who reported the spiritual war between God and Satan in the sky.
Well, I'm losing my train of thought so I will end this.
