Daniel:
Amen Steve

Zion is where "The Stone" is laid

Isaiah 28:16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.

Daniel

Not fully comprehending this thread, but never saw this before in this light.  

Christ in you, the husband in the woman, spiritual intercourse.

josh:
Thank you all for the feedback, perhaps we can continue this conversation... I have read over this once, but would like to do so again in the morning when I am thinking abit more clearly... I still have alot of questions.

josh:

--- Quote from: ertsky ---as i understand it josh the new jerusalem is spiritual code for the elect, the few chosen and faithful, who go on to completion, endure to the end.

these ones

Rev 14:4  These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.

I am beginning to understand these things more clearly, I will continue to study.... when rev. 14:4 mentions these men or the elect are virgins, "not defiled by women".... does this also spiritually represent something else or is it literal? is there any other place in scripture that gives this description?

definitely spiritual not literal josh

they are not defiled by the false doctrines of the great whore and her harlot daughters for they have

Rev 18:4  And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

well it's all through genesis to revelation really josh

heres an example

Jdg 3:5  And the children of Israel dwelt among the Canaanites, Hittites, and Amorites, and Perizzites, and Hivites, and Jebusites:
Jdg 3:6  And they took their daughters to be their wives, and gave their daughters to their sons, and served their gods.
Jdg 3:7  And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD, and forgat the LORD their God, and served Baalim and the groves.

that would be a clear warning in spiritual type of the sort of catastrophe that happens when God's people dont heed the warning to come out of her and be seperate. ie. we should have no trade in the lies of babylon.

PS: i just read this one, another radical example

1Ki 16:30  And Ahab the son of Omri did evil in the sight of the LORD above all that were before him.
1Ki 16:31  And it came to pass, as if it had been a light thing for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, that he took to wife Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the Zidonians, and went and served Baal, and worshipped him.
1Ki 16:32  And he reared up an altar for Baal in the house of Baal, which he had built in Samaria.
1Ki 16:33  And Ahab made a grove; and Ahab did more to provoke the LORD God of Israel to anger than all the kings of Israel that were before him.

and i'm reminded of this verse, some good news

Rom 7:4  Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.

AMAZING! He's got us all covered

bring on the dawn

Rom 13:12  The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.
