Lake of Fire

Also the lake of fire or the molten sea is called the sea of molten glass, because it depicts the mirrors the women took and melted into the brazen laver, which was located in the temple used by the priest to wash off impurities before entering...

Remember Revelation shows the real tabernacle in heaven with all of its instruments including the candlestick, shrewbread, alter of incense, throne/ ark and brazen laver (lake of fire) to name a few...

Daniel saw it as a river of fire coming from the throne... John sees the river coming from the throne as the water of life... There could be two rivers coming from the throne comparing Daniel and John or they could be the same.

In any case Daniel saw it as a River fro the Throne (remember the Sea of Molten Glass was before the throne).. and John saw it as a Lake.

It corresponds to the lake of Fire... the Brazen Laver

The Laver also represents Sanctification (depicted by the washing), Consecration, Baptism

They are baptized by Fire...
Those who are thrown into the Lake of Fire are those who when Christ died all men died, but they NEVER PROGRESSED to Sanctification Process like all of us who believed in Christ.

Remember to gain and sustain life, you need to be:
1. Die in Christ (happened on Cross) 2.) Justified (by Faith Since Christ Rose) 3.) Sanctified 4.) Glorified

Most people are stuck on Phase 1 ...
The Lake of Fire is maximum baptism....

God is the consuming fire... The Word is a fire..

Harpazo vs Rapture - Part 1

Image
Harpazo is different from rapture. Rapture is based on the notion that Christ comes with dead ones, picks up believers and makes a u turn and flies back up to heaven with unbelievers left behind.  It's helpful to consider Paul's word for "meeting" in this passage. It is the Greek word apantesis, which typically described the formal welcoming of a dignitary into a city. In other Greek literature, it was a term that described a great delegation that would travel to the outskirts of the city gates and beyond to receive the conquering king as he returned to the land." The Rapture counts for absurd eschatology.... And if you believe in the rapture guess who is taken? Not the righteous as you were taught but the wicked. Notice the disciples are asking "Where they were taken"... notice Christ's answer "wherever the dead bodies are for the vultures to consume" Luk 17:34 — Luk 17:37 I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the o

Narrow Gate vs Broad Way

That quote also comes from Luke 13... the ENTIRE Chapter is the context.. We can't just pull one verse to form a doctrine. This is the quote.. "Then one said to Him, “Lord, are there few who are saved?” And He said to them, 24 “ Strive to enter through the narrow gate, for many, I say to you, will seek to enter and will not be able" The question is saved from what?  is this talking about "eternal salvation"? NO.   Again context. Please make note of the following in Luke 13 The people who asked Christ this had little or no knowledge of the issues and particulars of salvation as we know it today. They were immediately reacting to Christ spreading an interesting message as he was heading towards Jerusalem. What was Christ's message? Well it started with folks pointing out that the Galileans were the most unfortunate because they had Pilate mix their blood with their sacrifices. They concluded that God judged them.  Doesn't that sound familiar with all the

Is Everything According to Gods Plan? Sovereign Will Part 1

Image
Questions: Why do we pray for God's will to be done if it is always done? What am I missing? Did he not know about it after all since the beginning? So if we deliberately don't do God's will, do we say, well he knew from the beginning that this will happen anyway? Why not? It's part of His Plan! There are many times God's will is not done. God's will, is and will always be done. Both statements are true? Do you agree or not? Answers: "Sovereign Will vs Permissive Will. God will permit us to do whatever we like, but eventually His Sovereign Will will be completed. Perfectly. No matter how well we play the game of Cosmic Chess against the Master of the Universe, He will win." - Andre van der Sandt "God's will is not done because man is flawed. Man makes wrong decisions sometimes when he uses his gift of free will. In which there is a lesson he will learn that will ultimately become God's will." - Ricky Diggs "His sovereign
