We have been informed with much boldness that real Bible scholars take the Bible literally...when it suits them.

Because the following has not taken place yet, and because it cannot take place in the new earth, the only option is for it to be fulfilled in the 'millenium'.

KJV Jeremiah 4
23 I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light.

 

There are other texts describing a time to come where the earth is empty and devoid of life...in fact so broken down after the 6th plague no life is possible.

That happened at the rebellion of satan,it's the reason why we were made flesh.

 

Genesis 1:2 "And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep."

Who is that Spirit of God? He is the Holy Spirit, and it is God's Spirit that moved upon the face of the waters.

In the Hebrew translation of the word, "was", as used in this verse "...the earth was without form,..."; in the original text it reads "became without form...". This same mistranslation of the word "became", and turning it into the word "was" is also present in Genesis 2:7. It should read there; "..and man became a living soul."

was

1961  hayah

hayah (haw-yaw); a primitive root [compare OT:1933]; to exist, i.e. be or become, come to pass (always emphatic, and not a mere copula or auxiliary):KJV - beacon,  altogether, be (-come), accomplished, committed, like), break, cause, come (to pass), do, faint, fall,  follow, happen,  have, last, pertain, quit (oneself-), require,  use.

void
922

bohuw (bo'-hoo); from an unused root (meaning to be empty); a vacuity, i.e. (superficially) an undistinguishable ruin:

KJV - emptiness, void.

The correct Hebrew translation from the Massoretic Hebrew text for the words, "without form"is "tohu-va bohu" in the Hebrew Strong's dictionary. So we see that the earth was not "created without form", but it "became [tohu] without form and void". Lets go to Strong's Hebrew dictionary, reference number 1961 to verify the word "was", that we read in this verse. "Yahah, haw-yaw; a prime root, to exit; to become, or come to pass." [#1961]


Excerpt from The Companion Bible Appendix 8:
 

The word "without form" (Hebrew tohu) is used of a subsequent event which, we know not how long after the Creation, befell the primitive creation of Genesis 1:1. It occurs in Genesis 1:2. Deuteronomy 32:10. 1Samuel 12:21 (twice). Job 6:18; 12:24; 26:7. Psalm 107:40. Isaiah 24:10; 29:21; 34:11; 40:17, 23; 41:29; 44:9; 45:18, 19; 49:4; 59:4. Jeremiah 4:23.

 

The Hebrew bohu, rendered "void", means desolate, and occurs in Genesis 1:2. Isaiah 34:11. Jeremiah 4:23.   The two words together occur in Genesis 1:2. Isaiah 34:11. Jeremiah 4:23.

end Companion Bible excerpt

"Tohu" of the earth, then means that total destruction had come to pass upon the earth. The second "was" in the verse is in italics type because there is no verb "to be" in the Hebrew language. One of the problems in translating the Hebrew into English is that the verb, "to be" is not distinguished from the verb, "to become".

At the end of Genesis 1:1 the first earth age ceased to exist in its previous form. God created the earth to be inhabited, and then He destroyed it. There was an entire earth age that existed between verses one and two of Genesis. This first earth age is spoken of in II Peter, Jeremiah, Proverbs, and Jude. We will look into these Scripture passages and try to understand the deeper meaning of our Father's Word.

Thank you, Brakelite.
We have also been informed with much boldness to take the Bible literally... as the Holy Ghost reveals it to us.

Just for some examples,
the bullocks we bring unto the Lord are literal and real,
but they are not physical animals.

The Lord's altar is literal and real,
but it is not a physical thing in a physical location.

The Canaanite tribes God commands His people to kill are literal and real,
but they are not tribes of people.

The flesh and the blood of Jesus are meat indeed and drink indeed,
but we are not eating His physical body, and drinking carnal blood.

I believe God is literally speaking about spiritual things.
Thank You God :emot-heartbeat:
Paul

But without a parable spake He not unto them:
and when they were alone, He expounded all things to His disciples.

Mark 4:34

Actually, that has taken place.  If you were at student of Scripture and took the Bible literally, you would know that Jeremiah is describing the desolation of Judah after it was decimated by the Babylonians and those living there taken  into captivity.

Yes, but in this post you are mixing contexts and not handling the Bible competently.

No, we don't bring any kind of bullocks to the Lord.   Nowhere in the New Testament do we have anything about bringing our "bullocks"  to the Lord.  That is just more false teaching from you and there is not an ounce of truth to it (as usual).

It was in the OT and it will be in the millennium.  It will be a physical altar in a physical location.

You mean "commanded."  And yes they were real tribes of people.

No, the sacrifices were real before and will be real in the future, like it or not.

Thank you, Shiloh.

The New Testament doesn't say anything about offering up our bullocks before men either,
yet you have no hesitation doing that.
And I thank you or it.
I am sure you sacrificed a lot of time and thought into making it.
But if you haven't offered it up the Lord yet,
what makes you think we should eat it?

As a newbie, when I first offered myself up to Jesus, and He saved me,
I figured I somehow found His altar, to do that.

Of course, I didn't understand anything much then,
but I went out and was able to find His altar again.
If one could offer bullocks upon it daily in Moses' day, I knew it wouldn't be that hard to find.

God's commandments still apply.
And no, the canaanite nations are not people, but they are the ungodly spirits we must cast out. 

Else we are saying God commanded His people to kill, after commanding them they shalt not kill.
Which was unacceptable to me.
Besides that, He was teaching me the war in heaven, and driving those nations out from before me.

So God's children of old did it, and His children in the future will do it (like it or not),
but you don't do it.
Because it isn't in the New Testament.

The Jews interpreted the law so, and sacrificed animals,
and we are told they did wrong.
So we don't have to sacrifice animals.
But some future generation of Christians will have to?

I believe that would be speaking of the generation that will interpret and do the law correctly.

Bless Jesus :emot-heartbeat:
Paul

And he that overcomes, and keeps My works unto the end,
to him will I give power over the nations:
And he shall rule them with a rod of iron;
as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers:
even as I received of My Father.

Revelation 2:26-27

History confirms that the Canaanites were real people.  To deny history is to simply be delusional (or high on drugs).

God didn't command against killing; He commanded against murder.   God used Israel as an instrument of judgment on Canaanites.  If that is unacceptable to you, it doesn't matter, because your erroneous ideas don't matter.

Yep, that is what I said.

No, we are not told that.  No one said they were wrong for sacrificing animals. God told them to do so.  You are really mixed up and don't know what you're talking about.

But some future generation of Christians will have to?

I am not sacrificing anything in the future.  The Levites, Israelites in the restored Israel of the millennium will be sacrificing them as memorials.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
