Dear Bob, Please tell me what it is about my post that you mis-understand or disagree with? From: James Garrett Monday, Mar 23 1998 12:37AM EST Reply # of 12397 Chris(and Bob) before this gets out of hand I would like to state my doctrinal position about Heirs according to the promise. In Paul's writings there are phrases like "Abraham's Seed" and "Heirs according to the promise." Christ is Abraham's seed. We are members of Christ. We do fall heir to all things in Him. Israel, to whom the promise pertained, (Romans 9:4), did not become heir, while we the members of the secret, unprophesied, body have become heirs in Christ. This, however does not nullify the promises made to the nation which is Abraham's natural seed. We are "sealed" with the Holy Spiritof promise and made partakers of His <ipromise in Christ, by the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I hope that you and Bob will see my position clearer by this statement. In Christ and brotherhood, James

Bob, I have a question. Given the persecution of the Church at the time the revelation of Jesus Christ was written by John,and given the fact that John says right up front that the time is near and what must soon take place, why do you say that this book; written 2000 years ago, was written to us to determine that Jesus is coming in our time? Does not Jesus tell us we should be able to read the season, but even He knows not when the Father will call us home? And He tells us to be ready always, I just don't see Him setting up a time? dcf
