This version of the Christian Greek Scriptures was prepared by the English-born Bible translator Benjamin Wilson, of Geneva, Illinois. It was completed in 1864. It used the Greek text of J. J. Griesbach, with a literal interlinear English translation and Wilson’s own version to the right using his special signs of emphasis
that same form of the word is used in Matt 23, "inside" though royalty can be used for kingdom, depending on context I suppose.. There is a different greek word used for "midst/among"

mee said:its about heeding warnings of a future Armaggeddon (Gods war) thats why there is no date ,thats why Jesus left us signs to indicate where we are in the stream of time
Concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the angels of the heavens nor the Son, but only the Father. For just as the days of Noah were, so the PRESENCE of the Son of man will be. For as they were in those days before the flood, eating and drinking, men marrying and women being given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark; and they took no note until the flood came and swept them all away, so the presence of the Son of man will be. MATTHEW 24;36-39 there is nothing wrong with getting on with our lifes as you say ,but it is the taking no note of the warnings that is wrong .was not Noah a preacher of rightousness warning people about a future time , and telling them where the place of safety was
(Luke 17:27) they were eating, they were drinking, men were marrying, women were being given in marriage, until that day when Noah entered into the ark, and the flood arrived and destroyed them all.
(Hebrews 11:7) By faith Noah, after being given divine warning of things not yet beheld, showed godly fear and constructed an ark for the saving of his household; and through this [faith] he condemned the world, and he became an heir of the righteousness that is according to faith.
(1 Peter 3:20) who had once been disobedient when the patience of God was waiting in Noah’s days, while the ark was being constructed, in which a few people, that is, eight souls, were carried safely through the water.
(2 Peter 2:5) and he did not hold back from punishing an ancient world, but kept Noah, a preacher of righteousness, safe with seven others when he brought a deluge upon a world of ungodly people;
so as the bible tells us it will be the same ,.....and it is..... people take no note of jesus signs regarding his kingly presence

Hi mee. I thought Jesus was just telling the jews that, since they were the ones the wrath was to fall on?Ignoring Jesus' commands is also a violation of God's word. He said specifcally. "Do not worry". And all you do is worry. So, in short you sin.
ouch!![]()

Btw, What is your take on the Court in Reve 11 being cast out outside?
[size=+2]Mark 15:38 and the veil of the sanctuary [#3485 naos] was rent in two, from top to bottom
aule (Strong's 833) occurs 12 times in 12 verses:[only used once in revelation and mainly for the Court/Palace of the High Priests in NT]
[size=+2]
Revelation 11:1 Then I was given a reed like a measuring rod, saying, "Arise ye! and measure the sanctuary[#3485]"naos"] of God, the altar, and those who worship there. 2 "But the court [#833]which is without the sanctuary, cast out outside!, and do not measure it, for it has been given to the Gentiles. And they will tread the city the holy underfoot [for] forty-two months.[/size][/size]

Daniel 12 shows it is on Daniel's people, revelation shows it is only the elect of the 12 tribes of Israel who are saved. So where the heck are we in it?
Doesn't a temple have to be built first? That is why I am not worried.
Luke 21:23 Alas! for the women with child, and for them who are giving suck, in those days; for there will be great distress upon the land, and wrath against this people.
Daniel 12:1 And, at that time, will Michael, the great ruler who standeth for the sons of thy people, make a stand, and there will be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a Nation, up to that time,--and, at that time, shall thy people, be delivered, every one found written in the hook;
Reve 7:4 And I heard the number of the sealed,--a hundred and forty-four thousand,--sealed out of every tribe of the sons of Israel:-
Like the "kangaroo court" Jesus was tried in?Court becomes a Kangaroo court. When the seven Noahidic laws are violated hell comes to earth.
In other words, when the courts of the world ignore the basic laws of man, as given by God...game over.

but it could represent the apostate world as a whole, but not really sure yet. Afterall, Jesus did promise the High Priest a front row seat at His coming.Malachi 2:1 Now, therefore, for you, is this charge, O ye priests:-- 2 If ye will not hear, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory to my Name, saith Yahweh of hosts, then will I send among you the curse, and will curse your blessings,--and indeed I have cursed them, because ye are not at all laying it to heart. .
Thanks Q and peace and love to you also.Quahom1 said:It will come when it comes. In the mean time live on, and do well.
And we all know that it happened just as Jesus said it would. but are we ready for the major fullfillment in our time? ,InChristAlways said:Hi mee. I thought Jesus was just telling the jews that, since they were the ones the wrath was to fall on?

Btw. Did you happen to see my post on the Judaism forum concerning Isaiah 28/61? In my view, Isaiah 28 almost appears to be the whole NT in one Chapter, and like Malachi, it appears to be against the corrupt muderous OC jewish rulers/priests.

Jehovah’s great spiritual temple is already being built
After these things I saw, and, look! a great crowd, which no man was able to number, out of all nations and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes; and there were palm branches in their hands. 10 And they keep on crying with a loud voice, saying: "Salvation [we owe] to our God, who is seated on the throne, and to the Lamb. ....revelation7;9-10 and these ones are in the coart yard
