So Nick what we’re seeing here is the Jewish Nation and  all the nations of the Gentiles.  By Ernest Martin.    A.S.K.

Hi Nick .     Lazarus of the parable was Eleazar, Abraham’s steward (Genesis 15:2).He was a Gentile “of Damascus” (“a proselyte of the gate”) who “ate the crumbs.”He was disinherited (to become a beggar) but he remained faithful to Abraham and God.When this earthly life was over, he received Abraham’s ininheritanc after all (he was in in Abraham…[Read more]

Hi Nick

Why the martyrs are described as being “under the altar”         Obviously, if this assumption is true, the altar of incense in heaven must be extremely large in or noder for thousands of martyrs to be there.  That would be a literal interpretation, and makes about as much sense as all the dead saints literally going to Abraham’s bosom (…[Read more]

Hi Edj

Yes it is. On Lazerus and Rich man

God bless.

Hi Nick and truthcomber

These are scriptures that some use for the immortal soul. which I don’t believe.

Rev 6:9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
Rev 6:10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and…[Read more]

Last one Nick

I believe in unaversal salvation

What are the consequences of sin? We are told by many people who view the story of Lazarus and the Rich Man literally, plus some scriptures in the book of Revelation, that it means to be in hell fire for all eternity. Let us also understand the book of Revelation is very symbolic! Though it speaks…[Read more]

Hi Nick you got it I threw you a hint

Keep Asking, Seeking, Knocking ] “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to   you.       God bless Nick

Hi Nick

Matthew7:7

Keep Asking, Seeking, Knocking ] “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to   you.       God bless Nick

Hi Nick

The Rich Man was an actual son of Abraham. Christ had him calling Abraham his “father” (Luke 16:24) and Abraham acknowledged him as “son” (verse 25). Such sonship made the Rich Man a legal possessor of Abraham’s inheritance. Indeed, the Rich Man had all the physical blessings promised to Abraham’s seed. He wore purple, the symbol of kin…[Read more]

Gene     I meant to say thanks to Jesus Christ

Nick I ment to say with prayer to much studying without prayer will make you  unbalance in the truth.

Speaking about   the Jewish nation and  and Gentiles nation’s .

God bless Gene  by the way Gene the hose of God is both Jew and Gentiles who house are we that’s to Jesus Christ.He torn down that wall. Praise God

Yes Gene you might say ever step Elieazer took to find  Isaac a bride He was one step closer to dis inheritance from all that Abraham had which was alot,  but faithfull.

Nick this much h much more.
I think you can figure it out.

Hades=grave and scripture makes it very clear when a person die’s All of   Him is dead to the resurrection.

You been going over all this with Gene and Jodi but you don’t believe that. what they are telling you is truth. think about it and pray. Study workout  pray  is not good.
There for…[Read more]

this Eleazar can be identified. He was one who must have had some kind of affinity with Abraham (or the Abrahamic covenant), for the parable places him in Abraham’s bosom after death. But he was probably a Gentile. Matt 15

25 Then she came and worshiped Him, saying, “Lord, help me!”

26 But He answered and said, “It is not good to take th…[Read more]

Hi Nick

This is the only time in Christ’s parables that a person’s name is used. Some have imagined that this use of a personal name precludes the story being a parable. But this is hardly true. The name “Lazarus” is a transliteration of the Hebrew “Eleazar” (which means “God has helped”). The name was a common Hebrew word used for eleven dif…[Read more]

Nick you speak as though flames and agony, as if it’s a literal hell of torment. What would a drop of water really do for someone in flames Nick not much , it probably would evaporat before it got to his tongue. There really more to the story.  It really would be hard to see this if you believe that man didn’t really died at death and lived…[Read more]

Hi Nick
Prophecy and the Parables
34 All these things Jesus spoke to the multitude in parables; and without a parable He did not speak to them, 35 that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying:

“I will open My mouth in parables;
I will utter things kept secret from the foundation of the world.”What is a parable: Nick are we…[Read more]
