Verse 12 Jesus was saying He would come quickly, not right away. To understand what he was saying in verse 12, we need to look at verse 14 below Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. verse 14 Jesus is saying that the believing remnant of Israel will be rewarded for their works and will enter into Jesus's Kingdom on earth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the New Testament The Lord only addresses His Church. This of course will include those of Israel. The reward goes to all who endure to the end. And they( his church) overcame him (Satan)Buy the blood of the Lamb, word of their testimony and loved not their life unto the death. These are the remnant. Verse 14 does speak not speak of the remnant of Israel Edited December 10, 2018 by Mike Mclees 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
