I was rescued from a self-destructive life of lies and sin and brought into His glorious light. I have (along with countless others of like testimony) been living on that for over 28 years and it is better all the time. I possess an abiding peace that has weathered the elements of this cursed human life, not by my dint of nature, but by His presence in me. Further, I have multitudes of answers to prayer that constantly confirm that faith. So the Scriptures are vindicated. But, I do not claim to understand them all in the perfection that God does! That simply is not necessary. I am learning. I am being led into all truth in a journey scarcely begun.physically resurrected Jesus (which is what much of this is about) somewhere here on earth, since He has returned here? Or where are His apostles: Are they not supposed to "be with Him where He is" and "sitting upon thrones, ruling over the twelve tribes of Israel" Why are dying saints both before and since 70 AD going (presumably) to Heaven, and not remaining on earth also to "be with Him where He is" and "ruling with Him over the nations?"
