"1 Corinthians 2:14 ¶ But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God:for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." Strange that you should quote the powerful and beautiful scripture, because it is one of my favorites. Please note that the "the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God:" Let us try to apply this scriptures to our current situation. God sends his son Jesus to establish the spiritual Kingdom of God through the life, crucifixion, death and resurrection of Jesus. Jesus fulfills his mission, establishes the Kingdom (the Body of Christ or Church) and then ascends into heaven. Shortly after the Ascension of Jesus he returns to destroy the Second Temple and the old covenant Judaism so that his new covenant people, Christian Israel, will not be confused. To stop this confusion, Jesus simply destroyed the Second Temple, the Levitical priesthood, the genealogical tables, the Temple furniture, ect. There was simply no need of these old covenant rubrics in God's new covenant Kingdom--the Christian Church. We now had the priesthood of all believers, the Apostolic leadership of the Church, the Holy spirit, and revelations in the New Testament to guide the new covenant Kingdom people. The people of God, the people of the Spirit, could discern the new covenant Kingdom of God. The natural man Could NOT discern the spiritual Kingdom of God and continue to try and establish the natural kingdom of the flesh--an attempt to restore the old covenant Mosaic commonwealth. Coming back to 1Corinthians2:14, we see that St. Paul tells us precisely that: "But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God; for they are foolishness unto him...neither can he know them because they are spiritually discerned.: Isn't this precisely what the Jews who rejected Christ did 2000 ago, and isn't this precisely what the Christian Zionist and Zionist Jews are doing today? Yes it is! They cannot discern the spiritual Kingdom of God established by Jesus so they attempt to establish a NATURAL WORLDLY KINGDOM OF THE FLESH in geographical Palestine. They also try, with their foolish Masonic brethren, to rebuild the symbol of this NATURAL WORLDLY KINGDOM---Solomon's Temple. This is the spiritual battle we face today: The children of the flesh, the children of Hagar, are trying to usurp th Kingdom from the children of the promise. The flesh of the Jews has replaced the faith of Abraham, and Israel and the Temple has replaced Jesus and his Church. We are living in the days where the antichrist have assumed power and are pushing for the things of the flesh. Yes Alan, 1Cor. 2:14 is a beautiful scriptures that totally exposes the carnal natural mind of dispensationalism and Christian zionism.
