I read through the 14 chapters of Zechariah this morning. It's an amazing book. If you have notions of floating around in heaven for eternity, this book should help clear that up. It's a really good synopsis of the events leading up to the restoration of all things - the kingdom of God - on earth.
@@exposingfakechristianity5556 It's very easy to jump on a video and post a very broad comment such as you just did. How about backing up your statement a bit by specifically addressing exactly why you are claiming Joel is a false teacher and does not understand the Bible.
@@hogisretired1 ,...A watchman that sees the sword coming calls out the warning, he does not stand there and explain every detail of the situation to every person. If anyone hearing the warning wants more detail all they have to do is ask. So, here is the problem, if anyone does not already understand that this was all false teaching, then it is not possible for a watchman to explain it to them. They have already shown themselves to be spiritually dead and blind. One is either spiritually alive and has eyes to see, or they are spiritually dead and blind. I cannot raise you from your spiritual deadness nor can I give you eyes that see. Only Jesus can do this. I just plant the seeds and call out the warning, it is up to Jesus to make the seeds grow and open the eyes of the blind if it is his will to do so. "Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me." Ezekiel 3:17 KJV Notice the above scripture says for the watchman to give warning, it does not say to explain the Bible to them. The understanding of the Bibles truths comes from the Holy Spirit and from one reading the Bible themselves. Nevertheless, if you have a specific question, I will answer it for you. Trying to explain to you all the ways this man is in error will only be in vain. Very simply, when the new testament refers to the nation of Israel it is only referring to the actual Christians, not to the physical nation of Israel. This is the opposite of what this man stated. That statement alone has exposed this man as a false teacher and as one who does not understand the Bible.
We all go to the foot of the cross and look on Him who we pierced and mourn. That is salvation! It's the ONLY door and Jesus the ONLY key. What happens if a Jew dies before Jesus returns?
There is no more Jew or Gentile. All were made one the moment Christ died on the cross. Anyone who dies before Jesus returns that has not been resurrected from being spiritually dead will not see the Kingdom of God. We are all born spiritually dead at our natural birth. Only when God calls us out of the darkness and we are able to be reborn in the Holy Spirit will we never taste death again. It is that simple. Every single thing I have put in these sentences is directly from scripture and is very clear.
@@huntsimple9527 ,...Yes, you have spoken correctly. All mankind is born spiritually dead and remains spiritually dead and blind for their entire lives. It is these who make up and fill all the apostate churches. The few Jesus came to save, those he has made spiritually alive have nothing to do with anything known as or called the church. The guy in this video is 100% incorrect and has shown himself to still be spiritually dead and blind just like all the jews who God has divorced. God is done with the jews. When the Bible speaks of Israel since Jesus was here it is only referring to the actual Christians.
@@huntsimple9527 exactly. You are not going to be saved just because you were born an Israel National Citizen which many seem to imply, because they think the scripture in Zechariah is for all Jews (God's chosen people) It is not! It is for all God's chosen people, who are IN Christ, because Christ is the True Israel! All the church isn't Israel because there are members who aren't truly God's people but are actually deceivers.
@@exposingfakechristianity5556 Did Jesus Christ (english) Yahshua Hamashiac (Hebrew) die for you and atone for your sins? If he did then you went to the foot of the cross, the correct and narrow way. When did He atone for your sin? At calvary, 2,000 years ago when you pierced Him, it is only now you're mourning for it. Weeping endures for a night but joy cometh in the morning.
The Jewish people are annoyed with the Christians now after the Pentecost Celebration on the heels of the Isaiah62 fast.... I also saw a lot of people in the Isaiah62 chat taken aback by conflict and the move to ban Christian evangelist. My own spirit says this is going to happen as we all move towards building a relationship between the Jews and the Christians.... I don't think millions of people praying and fasting were in vain. I expect to see everything we prayed for.
@@angierobinson1651 ,....The jews (Israel) are completely out of the picture. God has divorced Israel. There is no relationship/fellowship between actual Christians and jews (Israel). Now, on the other hand, the entire church is 100% apostate and all the fake christians that fill all the churches will have fellowship with Israel as they are both completely apostate from God and Christianity. The few actual Christians that exist have nothing to do with the Godless jews nor the Godless fake christians that fill all the churches. All the praying and fasting is 100% in vain. God does not hear the prayers of the wicked. He only hears the prayer of the few that are his chosen ones, and again, his chosen ones (the actual Christians) have nothing to do with anything called the church nor the Godless spiritually dead and blind nation of Israel.
@@exposingfakechristianity5556 Ok, since you never came back to point out the belief I expressed you felt I needed to repent for, let me address you for YOUR post. I read the Word of God for myself and listen to a variety of teachings from ministers who I feel know the word and are led to teach. I run in to topics from these teachers where my belief has either a missing segment, a belief that doesn't fit with the word, or I'm not strong on the topic....so armed with the teaching, my desire to seek out my own salvation with fear and trembling, my bible, prayer and most importantly THE HOLY SPIRIT, I study things out. Brother Joel Richardson and all the other wonderful teachers at FAI are a part of that. When you come in the comment sections, judge my entire belief system from a single comment I made, you are passing UNRIGHTEOUS Judgment on my walk with God.... so, I implore you to look inward and take your driving need to do such a thing to God in prayer.... and hopefully, you will repent and stop proselytizing.
@@angierobinson1651 ,....I did in fact point out your error. That is great that you read the Bible yourself, that is what we all should be doing. However if you listen to anyone associated with any church/Christianity, you will only read the Bible in such a way that keeps you from actually understanding the Bible. You are looking at the Bible through the bad lens of false teaching. You will only see what the church and its false teachers have indoctrinated you to see. Because you feel that the teachers you listen to are led to teach means absolutely nothing. It is impossible for you to discern a real teacher from a false one. Every apostate church and every false teacher is thought to be genuine by those they are deceiving. What the deceived have no ability to understand is, they have zero ability to discern a real teacher from a false one. The people at fai are false teachers and are selling a fake christianity. Same as the rest of the apostate church. Everything called the church is apostate from God and from Biblical truth and understanding. What you and everyone else fails to understand is, the last thing anyone will ever believe is the truth. Mankind will swallow lies and deception like sugar water, but the truth is like drinking wormwood. If any church taught/preached the actual truth and Christianity of the Bible there wouldn't be anyone there. People only fill the churches because they sell sugar water, (false teaching) and not the truth of Gods word, (wormwood). Also, I have judged righteously, because you think I haven't means nothing. Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand! "And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter." Revelation 8:11 KJV
He poured out His Spirit on the cross. He said "Father into your hand I commend my Spirit". Yes when He returns the jews will look upon Him Whom they pierced and be saved. But those who remained on Golgatha after He died also looked on Him pierced on the cross and were probably also saved. Maybe even the soldier who pierced Him. So I read Zech. as referring to both His death on the cross, and at the second coming. [in that context].
There is temporal Israel and spiritual Israel. Temporal Israel is defined by our temporal lineage, which is a composite of all our ancestors from whom we descended. More specifically, temporal Israel is defined by the genes we inherit. Spiritual Israel is also defined by lineage. However, it differs in the sense that the lineage of spiritual Israel is only one generation deep. The reason is that all those who are part of spiritual Israel are direct descendants of our Heavenly Father. One is born into spiritual Israel when they are sealed with the permanent indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit of G-D within their soul. In spiritual Israel, there is neither Jew nor Gentile because all spiritual Israel are direct descendants of our Heavenly Father. These descendants are more commonly known as Born-Again Believers. While one may be Jew or Gentile in this temporal realm based on their ancestry, the temporal ancestry of those who are part of spiritual Israel is irrelevant. When I read the scripture, it helps me to always distinguish between temporal and spiritual Israel. In fact, what I find in many instances is that what we see in this temporal realm (i.e., whether one is a descendent of temporal Israel) is often a prophetic type/shadow of spiritual Israel and the kingdom of Heaven, which is a spiritual kingdom. ABM
//More specifically, temporal Israel is defined by the genes we inherit.// Virtually no Jew can today trace it's line back to any of the tribal patriarchs. Apparently this was still possible in Jesus time. But today it isn't and many will freely admit that their ancestors were actually 'converts to Judaism' a couple of generations ago. Judaism, which essentially is Mysticism garnered with OT passages. Yet gullible Christians still believe that "The Jews are Israel" and that this is all somehow a "fulfilment of prophesy" etc... Well, partially this may actually fulfil prophesy e.g. erecting the temple were the 'man of sin' can take a seat. Establishing the false Christ and giving him power etc. And well, there is a synagogue mentioned in Revelation as well. And you are on the ride track, being reborn of the spirit is the true 'sonship of Abraham'. This has come under attack the past decades though. Essentially reversing this from spiritual to physical ancestry (that actually isn't). The rotten hebrew movement is another fad in that line... Trying to revive traditions of the pharisees, etc.
Is 49 8Thus saith the LORD, In an acceptable time have I heard thee, and in a day of salvation have I helped thee: and I will preserve thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, to establish the earth, to cause to inherit the desolate heritages; 9That thou mayest say to the prisoners, Go forth; to them that are in darkness, Shew yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and their pastures shall be in all high places. 10They shall not hunger nor thirst; neither shall the heat nor sun smite them: for he that hath mercy on them shall lead them, even by the springs of water shall he guide them. 11And I will make all my mountains a way, and my highways shall be exalted. 12Behold, these shall come from far: and, lo, these from the north and from the west; and these from the land of Sinim. 13Sing, O heavens; and be joyful, O earth; and break forth into singing, O mountains: for the LORD hath comforted his people, and will have mercy upon his afflicted. 14But Zion said, The LORD hath forsaken me, and my Lord hath forgotten me. 15Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee. 16Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me. 17Thy children shall make haste; thy destroyers and they that made thee waste shall go forth of thee. 18Lift up thine eyes round about, and behold: all these gather themselves together, and come to thee. As I live, saith the LORD, thou shalt surely clothe thee with them all, as with an ornament, and bind them on thee, as a bride doeth. 19For thy waste and thy desolate places, and the land of thy destruction, shall even now be too narrow by reason of the inhabitants, and they that swallowed thee up shall be far away. 20The children which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost the other, shall say again in thine ears, The place is too strait for me: give place to me that I may dwell. 21Then shalt thou say in thine heart, Who hath begotten me these, seeing I have lost my children, and am desolate, a captive, and removing to and fro? and who hath brought up these? Behold, I was left alone; these, where had they been? 22Thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I will lift up mine hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the people: and they shall bring thy sons in their arms, and thy daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders. 23And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, and their queens thy nursing mothers: they shall bow down to thee with their face toward the earth, and lick up the dust of thy feet; and thou shalt know that I am the LORD: for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me.
I know you guys don’t read the comments, but come on fellows. Would you interrupt your Bible teaching/preaching if you were in the pulpit at a church with an infomercial (that’s what it feels like). For some of us this is our church service and you disrupt the flow with your “sorry to interrupt” add in the middle of the excellent preaching/teaching. Why can’t you put that stuff at the beginning or at the end. You are doing yourselves and us a disservice. Thank you for your teaching, but not the interruption.
CG All of Israel will be saved at the end (Romans 11:25-29, Deuteronomy 4:30-31, Hosea 3:5, Zechariah 13:1). In history past, there have been some very evil Jews. Judas Iscariot John of Gischala The Zealots The Sicarii Jacob Frank
a partial hardening....not a temporary and it's definitely. A part of Israel will always be hardend. It's only a part of Israel that will be saved. Not the complete Jewish people. For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, yet a remnant of them shall return: the consumption decreed shall overflow with righteousness. The fullnes of the gentiiles is the fullnes of sin, the develop during the end times. Thats the reason why is written : He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still. Look around, the fullnes of sin is reaching top level. 16 But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full. Gen 15:16 The fullnes of iniquity is not the fullnes of Gentiles coming in the Kingdom , and a the end a kind of universalism of Isreal. Thats the reason why God lead the Israelites out of Egypte to punish the Canaites. It was a judgment. And that is God telling Abraham in Genesis 15:16 Whole Israel is the believing Jew and Gentile who will be saved as the iniquity of the Gentiles (Sinners an those who has the mark of the beast) come in. And then it is time for Gods wrath upon those. That is also the reason why there is a great tribulation for the church. Because in the entime she become holy and just, and she will be a bride without spot or wrinkle. Its Christ true Israel.
Joel, I am not sure that you will actually read this comment but I will give it anyway. Romans 11:25-26 when considering the context of the Greek text has not been translated with the same context in our English Translations. This is my paraphrase of verses 25 and 26 expressing the context that Paul was writing about in these two verses: - 25 Lest you be wise in your own conceits, I want you to understand this mystery, brethren: a hardening has come upon part of Israel, until, the fullness with respect to time, of the ‘heathen’ Gentiles’ prophesied 2,300 years of trampling God’s Sanctuary and His earthly Hosts, has been completed, 26 then after that those of Israel will be saved; . . . When will the fulness with respect to time of the Gentiles be completed? Scripture tells us in Isaiah 24:21-22 that the Heavenly hosts will be judged in heaven and the kings of the earth will be judged on the earth and together they will be imprisoned for many days to await the time of their punishment. Also, Revelation 16:12-16 tells us that the kings of the earth will gathered at Armageddon to be judged at the end of this present Age around 94-98 years after the Fig tree begins to bud new leaves. Moses and Ezekiel both wrote that when God Gathers the Israelites to Himself that he will plant them in a fertile field in which they can be nourished as He teaches them about the Religion of the Everlasting Kingdom which will be established during the time of these kings, as spoken about in Daniel 2, where they are living scattered throughout all of the earth. Jesus in the Parable of the Sower, also pointed to Israel being scattered into a prepared field and producing 100 fold, 60 fold or 30 fold of freshly harvested seed. For Israel to lead the Gentile saints to Mt Zion, during the last days of the Seventh Age, they must remain scattered throughout the whole earth for them to be a blessing to all of the peoples of the Earth. Shalom PS: - the meaning of the Hebrew root word that has been wrongly translated as "land", in our translations, actual has the meaning of "soil." Perhaps the scales over the eyes of the translators and scholars will fall off soon.

For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, yet a remnant of them shall return: the consumption decreed shall overflow with righteousness. The fullnes of the gentiiles is the fullnes of sin, the develop during the end times. Thats the reason why is written : He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.
Look around, the fullnes of sin is reaching top level. 16 But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full. Gen 15:16
The fullnes of iniquity is not the fullnes of Gentiles coming in the Kingdom , and a the end a kind of universalism of Isreal.
Thats the reason why God lead the Israelites out of Egypte to punish the Canaites. It was a judgment. And that is God telling Abraham in Genesis 15:16
Whole Israel is the believing Jew and Gentile who will be saved as the iniquity of the Gentiles (Sinners an those who has the mark of the beast) come in. And then it is time for Gods wrath upon those.
That is also the reason why there is a great tribulation for the church. Because in the entime she become holy and just, and she will be a bride without spot or wrinkle. Its Christ true Israel.
Joel, I am not sure that you will actually read this comment but I will give it anyway. Romans 11:25-26 when considering the context of the Greek text has not been translated with the same context in our English Translations. This is my paraphrase of verses 25 and 26 expressing the context that Paul was writing about in these two verses: -
25 Lest you be wise in your own conceits, I want you to understand this mystery, brethren: a hardening has come upon part of Israel, until, the fullness with respect to time, of the ‘heathen’ Gentiles’ prophesied 2,300 years of trampling God’s Sanctuary and His earthly Hosts, has been completed, 26 then after that those of Israel will be saved; . . .
When will the fulness with respect to time of the Gentiles be completed? Scripture tells us in Isaiah 24:21-22 that the Heavenly hosts will be judged in heaven and the kings of the earth will be judged on the earth and together they will be imprisoned for many days to await the time of their punishment. Also, Revelation 16:12-16 tells us that the kings of the earth will gathered at Armageddon to be judged at the end of this present Age around 94-98 years after the Fig tree begins to bud new leaves.
Moses and Ezekiel both wrote that when God Gathers the Israelites to Himself that he will plant them in a fertile field in which they can be nourished as He teaches them about the Religion of the Everlasting Kingdom which will be established during the time of these kings, as spoken about in Daniel 2, where they are living scattered throughout all of the earth. Jesus in the Parable of the Sower, also pointed to Israel being scattered into a prepared field and producing 100 fold, 60 fold or 30 fold of freshly harvested seed.
For Israel to lead the Gentile saints to Mt Zion, during the last days of the Seventh Age, they must remain scattered throughout the whole earth for them to be a blessing to all of the peoples of the Earth.
Shalom
PS: - the meaning of the Hebrew root word that has been wrongly translated as "land", in our translations, actual has the meaning of "soil." Perhaps the scales over the eyes of the translators and scholars will fall off soon.
