I took note of some of the things said.
The man is trying to propose a more simple and direct way for the Christians to go on.
He believes that the debates are confusing, which they are.
He has confidence that his approach is more straightforward.
I need something
specific to remark about.
This may help. God is growing a crop on the earth. It is not a crop of barley or corn or wheat. It is a crop of Christ in people. God is growing a crop of Jesus Christ in His receivable form
growing in His people.
The church is like a farm on the earth in which over the last centuries since His resurrection and ascension Christ has been growing Himself within people. Here and there some have matured. But a large scale maturity has never yet been. In these last days He will obtain a critical mass of mature ones. That is Christ grown in them and building them also together.
When He reaches a certain critical mass and a point of a mature crop He will reap a harvest. He will reap from the earth first the early ripe portion of His crop and then the major portion of His ripened crop.
In one chapter to see this best you should go through
Revelation 14. Notice that the crop on earth is divided into at least two main sections -
Firstfruits
Harvest
In that chapter notice also the events that transpire
BETWEEN the taking of the early crop - the Firstfruits and the taking of the Harvest. Notice what things happen in-between those to reapings.
I would suggest that
Revelation chapter 14[/b] is a very good place to get a good basic overview of the major events of the Lord's coming and reaping of His crop of Christ in His people on earth.
This is brief but specific. It may touch some of the issues that i did not yet see on your video.
