Emile, here, learn something about God's plan of the eons.

Note: feel free to insert age or ages for eon or eons.

There was a time before God made any eons (I Cor. 2:7). Then God made the eons (Heb. 1:2). There were eons in the past (Col 1:26). We are living in this present wicked eon (Gal. 1:4). Satan is the god of this eon (II Cor. 4:4). Christ, not Satan, will reign a thousand years in the next eon (Lk 1:33). The thousand years will come to an end (Rev. 20:3). Christ will reign in the eon that follows the thousand years (Rev. 22:5 and Lk. 1:33). Hence, He reigns for the "eons" (the next two) "of the eons" (all others).

Then the last eon comes to an end (I Cor. 10:11). Christ ceases to reign after the eons come to an end (I Cor. 15:24:28) because He turns over the Kingdom to God His Father and God becomes "all in all." The eons end, but that which is of the Kingdom continues (Lk 1:33 & Isa. 9:7). We all continue "living" after the eons because, just like God, we will then all have been given immortality.

All these facts about God's plan of the eons/ages were written by men who were indeed inspired by God's holy spirit. Check the verses yourself. They are not "obscure doctrines".

Now tell me in your infinite wisdom how the ages and eternity are the same thing. But remember, the Holy writ of scripture plainly tells us that the eons/ages WILL END! (See Hebrews 9:26 and 1 Corinthians 10:11)

Will eternity end Emile?

Emile - I do not know how good this "concordant literal new testament" is
have you looked into it that much or only think well of it?

What do you think of Strong's explanation of Greek and Hebrew words.

I found his translations to be bias in many ways to his futurist
thinking - but often the true meaning leaked out within his explanations.
he would have the true and the required watered down meaning
to subdue the obvious contradictions to his futurist views.

Is their an electronic version of the concordant that people
can download or get to on the net?

Thanks - Brian
