Remnant

[Aletheia4u]

It speaks in the Bible about remnants. The essence of God. In this video showed how we leaves a portion of our essence behind.


Isaiah 11 A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse; from his roots a Branch will bear fruit. The Spirit of the Lord will rest on him— the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of might, the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the Lord— and he will delight in the fear of the Lord. He will not judge by what he sees with his eyes, or decide by what he hears with his ears; ...

John 12:24 Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds.

Hebrews 11:4 By faith Abel brought God a better offering than Cain did. By faith he was commended as righteous, when God spoke well of his offerings. And by faith Abel still speaks, even though he is dead.

A remnant is an essence of God? That's a stretch. People are always the remnant, or the sealed.

In Isaiah 11:11, we read that a handful of Jews will reclaim their land from all their maritime oppressors. “In that day the Lord will extend his hand yet a second time to recover the remnant that remains of his people from Assyria, from Egypt, from Pathros, from Cush, from Elam, from Shinar, from Hamath, and from the coastlands of the sea.”

God sent Assyria to Israel as judgment, and Babylon to Judea also as judgment. A remnant of God’s people always returns, such as in Isaiah 10.

Jesus tells some scribes and Pharisees that certain people of old will rise up at the judgment with the scribes and Pharisees’ generation and condemn it (Mt 12:38-42). Among those who would rise up were the Ninevites who repented after Jonah paid a visit to their city and also the Queen of Sheba who journeyed from deep inside the Arabian Peninsula to meet Solomon and hear about his God. Despite the absence of any goodness at times, as David and Paul both despaired over, a remnant would still prove worthy of God’s grace, and at the judgment, a sort of corporate resurrection occurred.

In the final judgment, the sealed were a few of the faithful from all the tribes (Rv 7:4). Others were saved as well, of course. An inestimable number of others (Rv 7:9), but now there is no more remnant. No more judgment. God's people are Christians now.

Gds people are not Christians where do you get that esp reading Isaiah 45... If they are Christians then you better get rid of that piece of wood you worship.. This is replacement drivel that the churches have been teaching only someone with a completely closed mind can not obviously see that
