Not One Stone
When the typical modern Bible reader comes across such language as, "stars falling from heaven, heaven and earth passing away, the sun and moon going dark, the elements melting, the heavens being shaken," they naturally think of this material universe coming to an end.
However, many are surprised to learn that this Apocalyptic Language is used by Jesus and His Apostles, not to describe the end of the world as we know it, but the destruction of Jerusalem and its temple in AD 70. There is a vast amount of prophecy which this event fulfills. This type of language is not new with Jesus and His Apostles, but is borrowed from the language of the OT Prophets.
What's Inside:
- The reader will learn the difference between the Coming of the Son of man, and the Second Coming of Christ

Creating the Israel of God
Before the foundation of the world, before light and darkness were divided, before the man and woman walked in the garden, God conceived a body of humanity, holy and blameless, chosen in Christ. [Eph. 1:4] This body would be called the Israel of God, which He predetermined would be adopted into His household through a spiritual birth, in His Son. [Eph. 1:5; Jn. 1:13, 3:5]
As part of bringing this plan into reality, God promised land and seed to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. He fulfilled these promises in their children. It took both the Sinai Covenant and the New Covenant to fulfill these promises. The Sinai Covenant was a shadow of the “good things to come” in the New Covenant through the Messiah. The Sinai Covenant was to continue until the Promised Messiah should come. [Gal. 3:19]
