Alan - there were "ages" or dispensations as some men say
in the OT under the Old Covenants given to men as prefigures
and shadows to Christ and His redemptive work.

Those ages are in fact one progressive age prior to
Christ now to Paul as the "Old Covenant"

It was "growing old" during the 40 year period
between the cross and the end of the age in 70 AD.

Hebrews 8:13 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.

Those old covenants and ages were finishing -
those "elements" would melt with a fervent fire at the
return of the High Priest (Jesus) from the true
Holy of Holies in Heaven at the Right Hand of the Father.

The AGE TO COME was the New Covenant age in which we live.

There are no more ages to come ro dispensations to be handed out.

Christ is our High Priest Forever in the Covenant of
His Blood after the Order of Melchesidek.

I am not making this stuff up to escape your doctrines of
Universal Redemption of to save face in my Preterist Views.

These things are what the scriptures teach.

There is not another 5 ages as you people falsely conjure up.

Hebrews 7:17 For he testifieth,
Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.

The Old Covenant was READY (mello) to pass away BECAUSE
God had granted the NEW COVERNANT promised throughout all
the previous ages EONS - You expect promises invented by men.

That is to deny the FULFILLMENT of all that
God promised Abraham in Christ.

When men leave here it is the lake of fire or heaven forever.

End of Story

Ecclesiastes 11:3 If the clouds be full of rain,
they empty themselves upon the earth: and if the tree fall
toward the south, or toward the north, in the place where
the tree falleth, there it shall be.

I love the way men on this thread have managed to use my
brothers suicide to judge and speak evil of me.

It shows me just how I should change and learn to love as they do :-)

My feelings are my feelings - my thoughts are my thoughts...
those of you who have spoken against those things and called
me unloving are the worst kind of joke I have ever witnessed.

So your angry at my judgement of your doctrine and decide to
join the dogs in judging my "reaction" to my brother's death.

Jeremiah 17:9 The heart is deceitful above all things,
and desperately wicked: who can know it?

I know you agree with that one Alan :-)
