Hypers miss this stuff because they stick to Paul ONLY
- and I mean ONLY!
Some hypers even get to hyper grace with music and liberty
abusing, etc.
"Times" in the Bible - very interesting - and easily confused and misplaced
dispensationally, thus the constant need of rightly dividing.
Time of harvest!
From Matthew
13:24-30, see specifically Matthew
13:30 - Let both grow together until
the harvest (end of
the world): and in the time of
harvest I will say to the reapers
(angels), Gather ye together
first the tares (not
wheat, one can tell the difference in wheat and weeds - tares are imitations!),
and bind them in bundles to burn them (UN,
ecumenicalism, 'modern church movement,' music - CCM and all that falls
out of is - bluegrass fruit, etc. , Purpose Driven, Alpha, Cane, Willow
and Bully creeks, etc.): but
gather the wheat (supping
with Christ, KJV, preaching, and then rapture)
into my barn.
Time of the fruit!
From Matthew
21:33-46, see specifically Matthew
21:34 - And when the time of the
fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might
receive the fruits of it.
about Israel's inheritance
householder - God
servants - prophets
more servants - minor prophets
vineyard - Israel & Judah
powder - Daniel
2:35,45
Time of figs!
From Mark
11:12-14, see specifically Mark
11:13 - And seeing a fig tree afar off
having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when
he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not
yet.
Time of incense!
Zacharias -
Luke 1:10 - And the whole
multitude of the people were praying without at the time of incense.
Time of thy visitation!
See 43
for 'who' -
Luke 19:44 - And shall lay thee
even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not
leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time
of thy visitation.
Time of the promise!
Acts 7:17 - But
when the time of the promise drew nigh, which God had sworn to Abraham,
the people grew and multiplied in Egypt, (What
are our promises TO us... do you know any?)
Time of the dead!
Revelation 11:18 - And
the nations were angry (Rev
20:8,9), and thy wrath is come (Rev
20:9), and the time of the dead
(Rev 20:11,12),
that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy
servants the prophets, and to the saints, (Israel
- Dan
7:18) and
them that fear thy name (we don't have
to fear His name, we have to believe on his name) ...,
small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
The White Throne is not only for the 'lost.' This is referring to Tribulation and Millennial saints who have 'endured', and will be rewarded at the White Throne. This is why the 'books are opened' issue appears in Rev 3:5; 22:19. This is why Matthew, Acts and Hebrews says what it says about losing salvation, etc. This is NOT applied to church age as many say - Rev 12:16, 14:12; 22:14, Acts 2:38; Mark 16:16, etc.
Revelation 14:6,7 - 'fear God' - we don't have to fear, we have to believe on the name of ... Our name is already in the book of life and can not be removed, so it doesn't need to be checked... Phil 4:3.
Time of reformation!
See Hebrews 9:6-10
but specifically Hebrews 9:10 -Which
stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings (baptisms
{baptisimous} of objects, too - Leviticus
6,11,13,14),
and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation.
1st Coming of Christ as the real High
Priest - Hebrews
3:1-2
Times of restitution!
Acts 3:(19-21) 21 -
Whom the heaven must receive until the times
of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all
his holy prophets since the world began.
2nd Coming of Christ as King of Kings! Not until Acts
1:11; Zechariah 14:1-12.
Times of refreshing!
Acts 3:19 - Repent
ye therefore, and be converted, that your (Israel)
sins may be blotted out, when
the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord;
See Jeremiah
50:20; Isaiah 46:2; Amos 9:14,15; Hebrews 9:10 and Paul talks about it
in Romans 11:26-28.
Pentecostals and Great Commission folks grab
and claim this for today! Of course, it is in early Acts!
Too bad He didn't come when He offered - the Jews
blew that one - but that certainly was to our advantage!
Fullness of Gentiles!
Romans 11:25 - For
I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest
ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened
to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
Colossians 2:9 - For
in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
to the "church" -
Ephesians 1:23 - Which is his body, the
fulness of him that filleth all in all.
Hour of Temptation:
Revelation 3:10,11
- Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee
from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try
them that dwell upon the earth. Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast
which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
Revelation 3:18 - I
counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich;
and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy
nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou
mayest see.
Time of temptation!
Luke 8:13 - They
on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy;
and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation
fall away.
When it comes to be YOUR time, will
you be ready?
If so, you are following vain babblings which
leads to an increase of ungodliness!
even if it is doing right wrong!
see II
Timothy 2:15,16
