Prophecy Shades of Translation

[marie glen]

(quotation marks showing up as question marks..?) :gsmile:

#1 - The phrase is ?until THE TIME of the restoration of all? (no ?things? in the verse originally, or perhaps even in the language? But just ?pas? - ?all?.)

Acts 3:21 - (Jesus) ?whom heaven must receive until the-time for restoring all - - - -, about which God spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets long ago.?

#2 - 2 Peter 3:10 and 12-13 - bookend events of the Lord?s long second advent - the ?day? of the LORD:

2Pet.3:10 - ?But the day of the Lord will come [hḗkō - come, be present] as unexpectedly as a thief, in which the heavens will pass away [parerchomai - pass by, come to] with a roar and elements will be dissolved, burning with heat, and the earth [gḗ - earth, soil, land, region, country, inhabitants of a region] and - the works in it - will not be found.? [Verse 11 - ?Since everything around us is going to be destroyed like this, what holy and godly lives you should live,?]
      12, 13 - ?expecting and hastening [speud? - urging, desiring] the coming of the day of God, BECAUSE of which the heavens will be dissolved, being set on fire, the elements melting, burning with heat. But in keeping with God?s promise, we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth (a new universe/universal ReGenesis) where righteousness dwells.? (Rev.21:1-5)

#3 - Matthew 13:30 - Parable of the tares/weeds and wheat - (weeds, not the chaff of the wheat kernal) - ?Let both grow together - until the harvest - and at harvest time I will tell the reapers, ?Gather the weeds FIRST and bind them in bundles to be burned?? (in a bonfire - as weeds are usually burned in a bonfire) ??but gather the wheat into my barn?.? When is the wheat/the believers gathered? ? The bonfire then (surely?) is Rev.16:13-16, the gathering to Armageddon, 2Pet.3:10. Next thing the (still wild) weeds will know is rising into the ?aionion kolasis? / eon-ian correction / ?day? age of atonement the annual one (Lev.23) is a shadow, type and prophecy of. SAME process of correction some go through during this brief lifetime (all important contrast, truth proving drama, things running their course otherwise creation as an ant farm?)

#4 - 2Thess.1:7,8 - ??when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with his powerful angels. [En: in, on, at, by, with] flaming fire??

The three mentions of ?lake of fire? are at three huGe fiery events - Jesus? return, at the fiery final defeat of the adversary, and at the (fiery) ReGenesis.

#5 - Jude vs.7 - ?..Gomorrah and cities, are set forth as an example, suffering the vengence of eternal [aionion] fire? ? An example of ?aionion fire?.  Vengence/wrath/judgment  -> cause and effect.
