There's a bit more detail that I didn't include, and figured you would appreciate it. In 1996, after 700 years in its possession, London sent the coronation stone back to Scotland, so effectively neither country sits on David's throne.
( Ezekiel 21:27) I will overturn, overturn, overturn, it: and it shall be no more, until he come whose right it is; and I will give it him.
In the move, David's throne was overturned three times, ending up in London. The phrase "and it (throne) shall be no more, until"..... Means until Jesus Christ comes, there will be no more throne, no forth overturn, limbo. The Bible continues to fit our current state of affairs, and conditions for Messiah's return.
This prophesy describes Jeremiah's commission, along with Baruch, to move and replant David's throne, along with the ark of the covenant, prior to Nebuchadnezzar's destruction of the temple in Jerusalem. Look at the last two commands of Jeremiah 1:10: "to build, and to plant". Jeremiah replanted David's throne according to God's declaration that David would 'never lack a man sitting on his throne'. Christ has an active, earthly throne to return to; the queen of England sits on David's throne.
( Isaiah 49:1,3) God calls Israel (house) "O isles" his servant in whom God will glorify.
( Psalm 89:25)
( 1 Kings 8:25)
( Jeremiah 33:17)
Jeremiah also played royal matchmaker in Egypt by taking a "low" couple with him to assume the throne. He took a 'tender branch' (daughter) of the kings to heal the Zarah-Pharez breach. ( Isaiah 37:32,31)
All the kings of the British isles have been coronated on "Jacob's stone", care of Jeremiah, seated beneath the throne. See the pictures. Jeremiah took it from Jerusalem to Ireland, to Scotland, an onward to its current resting place in London, England. It was overturned 3 times along the way, and when the time comes, will be taken by Christ back to Jerusalem.
Jeremiah 1:4-10
I hope you understand this is prophecy about Jesus Christ; not Jeremiah. Read all the way to verse 10.
This is not so according to ( Jeremiah 1:4-5) Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.
Luke 1:35 "And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God."
John 1:1 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."
John 15:26 "But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:"
1 John 5:8 "And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one."
1 John 5:10 "He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son."
1 John 5:11 "And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son."
"For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
Thanks alot for your reply to the question that I had. I was in a discusion with a friend of mine, if we are in
pre-tribulation or in tribulation. I to think that this covid hoax could very well be the begining.

Hebrews 3:14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;
Matthew 11:15 He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
I don't think there is a verse that says that John endured the tribulation of the first three seals. Revelation Chapter 4 tells us that John was caught up in the spirit realm and got to see the events unfold on the earth as they were literally happening. John got to see the future in real-time. Physically, he was still on the island of Patmos, but spiritually, he was caught up into heaven and got to see it all unfold from above.
Personally, I believe this represents the church being caught up, as the church will no longer be mentioned during the tribulation period. The next mention of the church will be in Revelation Chapter 19, where we will be participating in the marriage supper of the lamb. So we see no mention of the church during the tribulation from Chapter 4 to Chapter 19. Revelation 19:14 mentions armies that will come back with Christ at His second coming. Those armies I believe are referring to the church.
I know jot of any verse in the gospel of John where he speaks of the first 3 seals of the tribulation spoken of in the book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ.
I have heard it spoken that the first seal has been opened with this "covid" hoax.
Because the first seal in Revelation 6 speaks about the rider of the white horse having a crown (Corona = crown in latin).
I am not fully convinced of this but don't count it out.
Hope this helps,

Look at the question in Verse 8, the predicament:
When the Lord comes, will he find the faith upon the earth? Will He find His people praying and trusting, or will He find them giving in and giving up?
When the Lord comes back, that's all that's going to be left. It's not a matter of how faithful we were with church attendance. The last days will get so tough in circumstances that it's a matter of us having necessity that we ought to always pray and never to faint and continue to trust the Lord no matter what is attacking us.
Sorry this was long. I hope I did this section some justice, and I hope this helps you!
In our English vocabulary, we probably say the jab, the boxer that jabs, continuously throwing the jab, wearing his opponent down so that he can throw the knockout punch. And he says she is continually coming. She is not going to give up.
And she had three things going against her. Number one, she was a woman, and a woman did not have any leverage in court whatsoever. Secondly, she was a widow. She had no husband to represent her in court. And thirdly she was poor, so she didn't have enough to give a bribe. So she just came and continued to come and wearied the judge.
In Verse 6, the word "hear" is a command. Hear what he said.
Verses 7 and 8 can be read together. Verse 8 says I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. It doesn't mean right away. It means when He judges, it will come fast. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find the faith upon the earth?
So He's contrasting. If the judge who has no regard for God and no regard for man, if he gives in because this widow continues to weary him with her continual coming, and he just gives in and says "Okay, I will rule in your favor, get out of here, leave me alone," that's not justice.
It is showing contrast. If God, who hears our every request, answers our requests as His children right away, it is in contrast to the unjust judge who answered somebody who persistently bothered him.
Some people teach that this parable means that if you want God to answer you, you must consistently bug Him. Weary God and He will give you your request. No, it is a contrast. You don't have to do that with God.
I send one more post. It will be short, I promise!
This is the parable of the unjust judge. It might help if I share the meaning of some words being used in this section. I may need more than one post so please bear with me.
The premise of this parable is in Verse 1, that men ought always to pray and not to faint. The word "ought" is the word necessary. It comes from the word DEO that means to bind. It is necessary for men always to pray and to not faint.
The word faint in the Greek text means to give in, to give up, or to give in to your circumstances. And as the Lord is explaining the difficulties that God's people will experience, He is now focusing on the main activity that the believer has with his or her Lord, and that is prayer, that when difficulties happen through circumstances, it's necessary for the believer to always pray and never to give in, or to never give up.
In other words, whatever situation I am in, my main focus is my circumstance or situation that I'm praying about. But prayer, when I ask for the Lord's will to be done, I am in submission to whatever the Lord wants to do. I'm letting go of that situation.
John says if you pray for the Lord's will to be done, then you have (present tense), you have the answer to your request. Things might not change in the circumstance. In fact, things might get worse from a human standpoint. But my alignment will be with the Lord.
If my alignment is not with the Lord I will give in, especially if I had to suffer what the early church had to suffer. And even in our day, it is necessary that we should always pray and not give in, or to not give up.
This is a parable of contrast. Verse 2 through 5 is the parable. In Verses 2 and 3, She is asking the court to come to her aid. The word adversary is a legal term that means the opponent in a court of law.
Then read Verses 4 and 5. The word weary in Greek means to give somebody a black eye. He's not worried about the woman attacking him. In fact, the word is a very special word.
I'll send more!
I cant find the verse again. can you tell me if there is one ?
Thanks Matt G R
satan was/is an angel who (because of pride) was cast out of his place as the worship leader of heaven. He still travels to and fro on the earth and even up to heaven to accuse the brethren before God. He is referred to as the dragon/that old serpent in the revelation. During the time of Jacob's trouble/ the Great Tribulation, he will be cast out permanently from heaven ( Luke 10:18/ Revelation 12:9). He is also spoken of in Ezekiel as the King of Tyre.
Lucifer, however, is (will be) a man; the antichrist, in whom satan will dwell. There are passages in Isaiah 14 about him, as well as in Ezekiel; where he is spoken of as the prince of Tyre. Also, in the Revelation, he is referred to as the beast.
Hope this helps as you search the scriptures.
Malachi 2:17- Malachi 3:1. Ye have wearied the LORD with your words. Yet ye say, Wherein have we wearied him? When ye say, Every one that doeth evil is good in the sight of the LORD, and he delighteth in them; or, Where is the God of judgment?
Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the LORD of hosts.
Isaiah 40:3. The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
Mark 1:2-4
As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.
NOTE: In Isaiah and Malachi the plural form for God is used. ( El-o-heem' ) as it is in Deuteronomy 6:4.
Who was the messenger preparing the way for God as mentioned? 'John the baptist'
When God came who did he show up as? " The Lord Jesus Christ. God bless.
You asked in your post for someone to explain Mark 13:32 and genesis 22,
Here is Mark 13:32. But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. There is nothing to explain there! Jesus says the son don't know and I believe him, And I agree with you Genesis 22 is a foreshadowing of God sacrificing the Lord, you asked how can Jesus be the sacrifice and the sacrificer, no point in explaining that either. The difference between me and you is you need an explanation to believe, I believe without the explanation, I also believe when the Lord says I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. I believe that because he said it. I also believe Isaiah 9:6, John 14:9, and many other verses that proves his deity,
As equal important I believe Genesis 1:1. and I believe And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. I believe it because he's GOD! Jesus said he was not of this world, the scripture says Jesus came out of the bosom of the father and he go back to the father, Sacha The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. God is the creator who speaks things to exist out of thin air!! There is NOTHING he cant do! Do you believe that? If you do then your problem is not believing Mark 13:32, Your problem is accepting Mark 13:32. If God wanted to manifest himself into 10 beings at one time, disperse them all over the world with the father being the living Devine headquarters from whence they came, limiting them, and bring them back to there former Glory, Can he do it? NOTE: I'm not asking you did he do it! I'M ASKING YOU CAN HE DO IT? Yes he can. When it come to Jesus being The Almighty, Everlasting father, the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending. "GOD" manifesting himself in the flesh, The scripture says that's who he is and that's what he did. And I believe it.
But 3 in agreement.
If three people fully agree on the Bible that makes them one in belief , not one in person .
The witness of 3 is not 1 person that's not even good logic .
Do you believe 1 John 5:7 "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one." or not? So, when the Bible says the "three are one" do they mean the three are NOT one? That's what some people in this forum are claiming, which sounds like they believe in the truth of the Bible.
For those who try to discredit this verse, what other verses will they try to discredit and where does it end? Do they only pick the verses they don't like to 'reinterpret' or do they treat all verses equally? Can someone be a Christian who doesn't fully believe the Bible? Have you tried praying and about this? God bless.
