The Lake of Fire Ended in 70 AD

This lake of fire forever.

There’s so much truth to what you just said! I spent 5 decades, off and on, in the fire/brimstone-preaching churches and tried very hard to put together the futurist versions of eschatology and ended up leaving those denominations. Looking for the next one to try, I could never find one, which I believe was by God’s design. He has taught me Himself more than I ever thought possible and brought me to my current understanding of the Roman-Jewish war of 70 a.d. I believe when Jesus ascended to the throne, He began ruling and still rules…He is over everything that happens, whether we think it good or bad, to fulfill and accomplish His plans and purposes. Therefore, Jesus is Lord, King, Master, Savior, God and our High Priest…keep walking with Him, brother, and never turn back. Many blessings to you ❤️🙏❤️

Most likely we are in the Lake of Fire right now, Revelation 20:14. Unlike the fire that comes from Satan, the fire that comes from our Creator is Refiner's Fire which only purifies and cleanses, and does not destroy. The proof is Moses' burning bush that was burning and not consuming, and the tongues of fire that rested on the disciples on the day of Pentecost. The verb ''basanos'' that has been translated as “torment” can also be translated as "birth pains", Rev. 12:2. Also, it is used for one “sick of the palsy, grievously tormented (Matt. 8:6) while for the disciples' ship in Galilee, it is translated as “tossed with waves” (Matt. 14:24). It is translated by the word “toiling” in Mark 6:48, and by the word “vexed'” in speaking of Lot (2Pet. 2:8). The original idea of this verb "basanos" is “to put to the test by rubbing on a touchstone", which means “to question by applying some test or torture to discover whether true or not.” In the old version of the Strong concordance, the first definition of "basons" is touchstone, (a dark stone used in testing metals). However, they don't explain to you what touchstone is, and just behind it, they put torment and torture. In the next edition of Strongs, produced by Zonderven's publishing, under the same word "basanos", Strongs number 931, they have torment, severe pain, and torture, torments. The translators and editors of the Bible, have completely eliminated the fact that we are dealing with a touchstone, something used to determine the value of gold. All that is to hide that the true meaning is to be tested and refined as gold in the Lake of Divine Purification, and not tortured in the Lake of Fire. The true meaning of being thrown into the Lake of Fire is to be tested as metal that looks like gold to find whether it is real gold or not.

[@YeshuaReigns2]

Consider this folks: When James & John wanted to call fire on the Samaritans for rejecting Jesus, what was Jesus's reaction? Did He say "Gee that's a great idea young brothers, I now empower you to torch those Samaritan scoundrels that spurned my grace, yeah go ahead and barbecue them"? Not quite. Instead He rebuked them & gave them a verbal beatdown and said (paraphrase liberty) "Are you guys nuts? You don't even know the kind of spirit that's motivating you. The Son of Man did not come to destroy mens lives but to save them". The orthobox teaches the first version & not at all what Jesus said. You can feel the passion & tone of Jesus's answer to those two brothers. Now if Jesus was appalled at the notion of torching that Samaritan town, how much more disgusted do you think He is when His so-called ambassadors of today paint His character & plan to save as a cruel joke on humanity where they teach that the overwhelming majority of humanity is sentenced to an eternity of roasting in flames??? God doesn't torture forever. He doesn't cause gratuitous pain & suffering. He's kind. But He's also severe in His judgements. He wounds to eventually heal. His discipline is not fun. Trust me. I know from experience. It's painful, it hurts, it downright sucks. But it's necessary because "When your judgements are abroad in the earth, the inhabitants learn righteousness. "That's the goal. To transform unrighteous wicked men into pure righteous men. And the purifying agent is God's type of fire. Peace.

[@xanderbarr1983]

He did burn those samaritan towns, and all that generation that didnt believe in the saviour were judged, and stoned, and burned, and killed with thw sword..half the truth is a lie..he saved those that believed, and listened to all hos words..he also jidged all who did not..our time of grace is no different..it is appointed unto man once to die, then the judgement..jesus is the saviour, he is also the judge.

I had been brushing it off because it’s just normal, but then you showed me a completely different kind of fruits and character. Thank you.

It's a fact that the deeper you dril down into the earth the hotter it becomes- so much that it melts drill bits. Hell isn't mentioned in the creation account- yet it exists.

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

That may be a 'drilling fact'...but it's not Scripture. I know someone who dug into the ground to make a 'well' for water...should I assume that is the 'river in Revelation'? Clearly the answer is no. The 'lake of fire' appears to be allegorical for the destruction of Ancient Israel.

[@lalobalandrano1109]

Thanks Shade. That makes a lot of sense (coming from a preterist view myself), I just have a sincere question: What about “the abyss”? mentioned in the first few verses of Genesis. Isn’t that related to “the tartarus” or “underworld” referenced in the New Testament? There’s a reference as well in Philipians 2:5-11 where Paul says that even “under the earth” there will be entities bowing before the majesty of Christ. So I’ve thought for a while that, that would certainly be related to the abyss (or “hell”) mentioned in Genesis. I would REALLY appreciate your reply on this. Thanks! and warm regards from Mexico City!

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

Hi There! Thank You for you question...and all the way from Mexico City! That is fantastic. The word 'hammayim' means 'the water or the waters'. So I don't see 'abyss' nor 'tartarus' in Genesis. And if we look at Revelation, we can see that 'waters' means 'peoples, tongues and nations'. That's in Revelation 17:15. So if you go with literal interpretation, it's water not hell. If you go with allegorical interpretation, it's nations. As for Paul's reference to 'under the earth'; I think he is referring to those departed spirits who were in the grave or the 'abode of the dead' waiting for the Christ and for the White Throne Judgement of the first century. Hope this helps!

[@kyleChat]

Pure brilliance, once again my friend. Thank you for helping us connect these prophesies from the "OT" with the fulfillment of more familiar ones in the "NT". Question: why do you use the KJV? Is it a personal preference or a textual issue?

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

I tend to use the OKJV because I know that there are some believers that consider it the 'only one we should be using'. Personally, I don't agree, but to accommodate the believers that have the 'Old King James Version Only' position, I lean towards using it to avoid that particular criticism. Thanks for asking this great question! PS - no pressure; do You have a preferred translation?

[@kyleChat]

@@ShadeStoneMusicOh ok, rare to see that sort of humility to appease others misguided views. I think though, if you even only changed one KJV's Onlyist's mind- it could be worth it. I prefer Youngs Literal but since its not very popular I also use the KJV. I'm glad you use the KJV! Not very many teachers in preterism use it. I wonder if that's because Matt 24:3, 1 Cor 10:11,etc the KJV uses "world" and not "age". I do believe this has caused much confusion over the past few centuries.

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

@@kyleChat ...Thank You Bro! And I use Youngs Literal a lot as well; I sometimes use Rotherham Emphasized Bible as well. I would agree that the 'world' instead of 'age' has been a problem; that said, it allows me the opportunity from time to time to show some Greek words to strongly consider as part of the teaching. So it appears there is an upside.

[@kyleChat]

@@ShadeStoneMusic Great point! Always good to show the original language when needed Also, Isaiah 28:14, has a great connection with 2 Peter 3:3- "o scornful men" = "scoffers" (NASB,ESV,NIV, etc). Peter is saying that his generation is the one Isaiah 28 is to be fulfilled upon., which of course occurred in the Parousia of 70AD. Don Preston has been going over this in his teachings as of lately. God bless.

Thank you for sharing your opinion & teaching on this.I remember asking a pastor over 45 years ago why a loving God would create a race to send the majority of it into eternal torment as scripture states narrow is the way to eternal life & few are those that find it! We did not ask to be created so does that seem just? That's for one lifetime on earth as it is appointed for man to die & then the judgement! That's when I still had critical thinking before being brainwashed & indoctrinated by my church who showed their true colours when I had some tribulation as U would call it & could not tithe! I am so glad I left after 30 years church organist I have gone back to my manuscript now & just worship Him my own way! I am so relieved to be away from it all even though I am alone. Kind regards from the UK. Please keep up the good work I have been up all night listening to you thank goodness I have no work today!😂

Thank You for sharing Your testimony! I also like to mention Luke 6:35 where Jesus says that 'God is kind to the evil and the unthankful'. How does that fit with all kinds of eternal torture??

You CHOOSE Satan. Genesis 1 is ELOHIM (Lucifer and the fallen angels). They made this realm. They made man in their image. (tares) Man is an idol, a trap to hunt angels. Genesis 2:7 the Lord God forms His representative in their system. (wheat) One Gospel: Gospel (GOOD ANGEL) of Reconciliation. Jesus Christ came into THEIR kingdom to reconcile fallen angels unto Himself. We are the fallen angels (ELOHIM) kept in DNA chains of darkness. If you do not confess being a fallen angel in Lucifer's kingdom, then you are an unbeliever. Unbeliever = those that claim to be made in the image of ELOHIM(gods). REPENT FALLEN ANGELS.

This is excellent! So well thought out, bro! I have a couple questions so maybe you can fill in some gaps for me. Aren't the living as well as the dead judged? In AD 70 only the living are. Also, what happens to those who have not accepted Christ at death. Please don't think I'm disagreeing with you. I am also a preterist and a Christian universalist. :)

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

Great questions! I see the judgment of 'the living' as those who believed in Christ and followed His way...and I see the judgement of the 'dead' as those who did not accept Christ or His way. Much like when the Prodigal was living riotously and he was called 'dead'; he wasn't physically dead...he was 'spiritually/covenantaly dead. As for unbelievers...I get the sense that they will be positioned differently. For example, Revelation 3:9 says that the 'synagogue of Satan' will be worshipping at the feet of the Saints. Clearly they still exist, but they are positioned in lower rank because they 'reaped what they sowed'. Hope this helps!

And indeed also, the destruction of the surrounding towns and villages in Israel by the Roman armies between circa 65-70 AD, had on the history of the Jewish people. Also its utter importance regarding Christian theology - it is so deeply connected to Jesus' prophecy and yet just seems to be a footnote in Christian and Jewish study. Again, that's too bad. Well done, once again - your scripture references all make complete sense. What a mess, modern day evangelicals have made in their interpretation of end times writings.

[@LB-px2zo]

Thank you for your comment, Shade. Would you call it soul sleep? But now we go straight into the presence of Jesus when we pass away?

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

@@LB-px2zo ...I have two potential positions when it comes to what a 'state of rest' could mean. One, they were 'asleep' as Paul seems to refer to them as; or, it could be they were conscious, but hopeful knowing that their King would be coming; either way...a 'state of rest'. That said, I believe the waiting period is over. Why? Because prior to the completed work of God in Christ, the Heavenly Jerusalem was closed to mankind. After the completed work of God in Christ (in the first century), it was opened by Christ who went into the 'holy of holies'. So now, we go straight to God through the merciful High Priest who will reward us according to His grace and our works. That is what I am gathering from the totality of Scripture.

[@LB-px2zo]

I do ponder Abraham’s bosom where Abraham went when he died, unless that was imagery also.

Slade a similar idea to this video is scripture talking about dross (Ez 22:17-22) and other places in the OT. How to interpret the scriptures spiritually is a more so now awareness for me. Thanks again for Your videos 👍👍

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

You are welcome! Thank You for the kind words. Great Scripture reference by the way. Malachi 3:1-4 depicts the same type of 'purifying the dross in Jerusalem' imagery...uses a 'refiners fire' for the description of the Lord's presence. I'm thrilled to hear that You see the symbolic language as a valid way of understanding the text.

[@jamescarter3883]

(?) Do the terms like: "The Sun shall not give it's light and the Moon will turn to blood" Mean the Light of God or Torah will be removed and the High priests who are supposed to reflect that light will die? I'm just trying to follow your logic on the use of metaphoric symbology here. Epic message Bro-Cephus! (Brother-Rock)

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

I think this is how we are to think of these idioms. So for example...In Genesis 37 Joseph tells Jacob (Israel) about his dream..."I had another dream, and this time the sun and moon and eleven stars were bowing down to me." When he told his father as well as his brothers, his father rebuked him and said, "What is this dream you had? Will your mother and I and your brothers actually come and bow down to the ground before you? As You can see, Jacob and his wife are the 'sun and the moon'...the other brothers (tribes) are the stars; so if there is a Scripture that says the 'sun' no longer gives light...could that mean that Israel is going to be destroyed? When the 'stars fall'...could that be 'the tribes of Israel' falling? I believe that is how The Book of Revelation is to be discerned. It's a 'signified' book...it says so in Revelation 1:1. No pressure...but I do have a 'Revelation Series'...the videos are long because it's a difficult book. But it may help to understand how I personally see this unique book. Hope this helps!

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

Thank You for Your question. Davinci.

[@mopo7]

What do you think happens to non believers when they die? Also, one other question, our God is a loving God, I believe that, but when I first read the OT I struggled with all the killings and wiping out of other peoples including children. And other occasions where one man's sin resulted in his whole house being killed. I've kind of put it in the 'His ways are higher than our ways' box and so far left it at that. What's your take on it?

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

I get the sense that they are positioned outside the kingdom. For example 'outer darkness' is something that Jesus speaks of. Also a 'debtor's prison' is another analogy that is used. As for some of the extremely uncomfortable things happening in the OT...I think often times situations were either far worse than we could imagine to warrant such harshness...or...since grace & truth didn't come until Christ; they were doing things they weren't supposed to be doing...at the end of the 'book of Judges', it says that 'every man did that which was right in his own eyes.' So I read that entire book (for example) from the angle that very little was done properly.

[@mopo7]

@@ShadeStoneMusic Thanks for the reply bro. I mean if we are already living outside of the kingdom right now where are the non believers going when they die? Surely this belief implies some kind of repeated 'reincarnation' of their souls (which is unbiblical) until they get it right and believe on Jesus and then enter the kingdom... or am I missing something? Re the OT, yes it probably was very grim how they were living, but the Book of Ruth was set during the time of Judges, and the characters in that book seemed very caring and honourable. Don't think there's an easy answer to it for us tbh, hence I just trust in the Lord as He knows best.

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

@@mopo7 ...No problem at all. I would say that we can't be sure that there aren't 'outer courts' in the next realm and/or life. I do think that Christians have a tendency to believe that 'all believers' are getting the same prize and position. That in my opinion is also very unbiblical. 2nd Corinthians 5:10 - For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad. There are also believers that get a worse punishment than unbelievers. Jesus says it Himself in Luke 12:46-48 - He will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers. And that servant, who knew his lord's will, and made not ready, nor did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes; but he that knew not, and did things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. Most Christians aren't fitting this into their understanding of Scripture.

Oooohh, buddy! This is an interesting take, Brother. New subscriber here. In Rev. 6:8, the word "death" is "the death". This shows up again in 1 Cor. 15:26, where the last enemy being (katargeō: present passive indicative) destroyed is "the death". Do you think these passages relate to one another or do you think they speak of different concepts? Thank you for the refreshing tone and approach you take with your teaching. There's so much fighting and animosity, really a Civil War, within the Body of Christ that it's difficult to watch/listen to sometimes. I've often said, "Where's the love of Christ?" Your videos have made me feel as if there is a haven I can come to in order to get away from the chaos and listen to someone who is making an honest, heartfelt attempt to discover the truth (see my handle name). Well done. Keep up the great work!

I agree strongly with you, evil/sinful behavior is like shoveling hot coals into your lap. I've been places in my life that I realized that sin was pleasurable for a "Short Season" and had to deal with my heart feeling just like it was being destroyed by....Yes, Fire.

PRETERISTS, HISTORISTS are taking away from the worst horror the world will see (Matthew 24:21), when the earth shakes to and fro like a drunkard (Isaiah 24:20), as the pit is opened (Revelation 9:2) and the locusts are released (Joel 2:25). John received the book of Revelation. Yet, he was told that he would be coming back at the end. Revelation 10:11 And he said unto me, Thou must prophesy AGAIN before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings. That revelation (given within the past 2 decades):

[@jamesvan2201]

Interesting topic. The only thing that i would ask you is what is your concept of "hell" then, asopposed to the place that unbelievers go after the final judgement? Do you believe they are just destroyed and are no more? Like total annihilation? There are some who believe that the unsaved will go to "hell" where they will burn in torment and gnashing of teeth, forever, and then there are some who believe they go to "hell" to be punished for their sins, for a time (depending on the amount and severity of their sins) but then once that time lapses, they are permanently consumed and just cease to exist (annihilation).

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

Great Question! And Thank You for Your comment and bringing up this topic. I personally don't see and eternal torture chamber as one of the options. Some go with 'annihilation as You mentioned, but that has some problems as well. For example, when I see Daniel 12:2, it talks about a 'resurrection to shame'. This appears to be a lower position; a demotion; not annihilation; Also, Jesus says in Luke 6:35 that God is kind to the evil and the unthankful. 'Annihilation' doesn't fit this description either. There are some that say that people simply die and cease to exist...they are not resurrected at all. That seems a little more plausible and possible, but again, that seems to fly in the face of the above Scriptures and others as well. So I lean towards the position that 'all' go meet their Maker, and are rewarded accordingly. The picture that Paul lays out in Colossians 3:25 and 2nd Corinthians 5:10. Thanks for allowing me to give You my thoughts on this subject!

So it’s lights out for good or a peaceful afterlife then?

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

Great Question! Some suggest that many simply 'cease to exist'... I don't personally lean in that direction... Although I know why the arrive at that conclusion... But because it says that God's mercy endures forever... And it says that the 'synagogue of satan' will worship at the feet of the Saints... For this reason and more, I am getting the sense that there are spiritual consequences, but that debt is not one of infinity...long time maybe...but not infinity... Hence the term, 'resurrection to shame'. But then it says in Isaiah 25:8: He will take away the disgrace of His people The combination of Mercy and Justice is what I see. Hope this helps!

[@mikeweidmann2640]

I believe when Jesus says in Matthew “Depart from me into everlasting hell fire” there is a good chance He is referring to the lake of fire.

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

I can see why one may have this view. That said, I think you are referring to Matthew 25...if so, in verse 32 of that chapter Jesus clearly states this is a 'National Judgment'. So that 'hell fire' in that chapter would be the destruction of Ancient Israel which in my opinion would be the same as the 'lake of fire' in Revelation which is referring to the same National Judgment of Ancient Israel in the first century. Thank You for commenting.

Good post, as usual. Leads me to wonder if people would not have a better grasp of the symbols used in Revelation if they had a better knowledge of exactly how terrible and horrifying the actual destruction of Jerusalem was? Even Christians welcome deception all to easily.

Lazarus and the rich man, anyone?

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

Fair question. I did do a video on this passage, in case you are interested in checking that out. That said, allow me to offer some thoughts. Was Lazarus a believer or a righteous man? We don't know, he is simply really 'very poor'. Was the Rich man a believer or non-believer? Again, we don't know. So then what is this all about? If you read Luke 16 from verses 14 to 18, you will see that this parable is directed toward the Pharisees specifically. From Luke 15 to Luke 16 there are 4 parables in a row. So this I would suggest is a parable as well. The last line (in my opinion) points prophetically to the resurrection of Lazarus...and perhaps Jesus Himself. The point of the parable is to say that these Pharisees wouldn't believe even if someone was resurrected from the dead. And that ended up happening.

[@AlSwearengen4]

Well presented and worthy of consideration. To be fair though, Genesis doesn't mention Hades/Sheol/realm of the dead being created either.

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

That is indeed a very fair observation. Thank You for that! With that said, the 'you will return to the dust' line was in Genesis 3. Nothing about a lake of fire waiting for the damned there. It would seem to me, that would have been an appropriate spot to mention it. Thanks again!

Im curious what ypur thoughts are on Matthew 25:41 King James Version 41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels. Preterism is making a lot of sense. But i still have questions i wrestle with and I'd like to at least get your opinion on them. Thanks

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

Great Question Brother Bob! So allow me to show You verse 32 in the same chapter: Matthew 25:32 - 'And before him shall be gathered all NATIONS: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats' I put the word 'Nations' in all caps so that we take note of it. This is not an 'individual judgement of individual people'. This is a Nation Judgement. So You are seeing some 'fire' language because (in the context of what was going to happen in the first century in the Roman/Jewish war); there were going to be some Nations that would be blessed (sheep nations) for doing good and some Nations that would get a severe punishment (goat nations) for their wicked ways. This is not only First Century context (in my opinion), but it is clear that this is a National Judgement upon the earth. Hope this helps Bro!

[@Flat-Bob]

Found yur channel recently.. Father challenging me on the main streams eschatology. Trying very much to learn & discern truth thru all the lies & err. Can u explain what u didnt read at the end…and this is the second death. In yur perspective is death’s end the grave alone? What does the second death entail & r u saying there is no torture from demons, ever after the first death? All this ive been taught never sat well with me but accepted it cause I was taught thats how GOD set it up. U r very good at explaining, not condescending, but gentle & caring. Still a whirlwind in me but I know the Holy Spirit is faithful to those who really want Father’s Truth

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

Thank You for Your honesty and great questions! I do intend to take on the 'Second Death' subject as we move along this difficult Chapter. In short for You to consider, I think there are two deaths in Revelation. One death is dying 'in Christ'; the other death (in the lake of fire) is dying outside of Christ. In the context of Revelation, that would be the unbelievers in the first century that ended up in the Roman/Jewish war under the 'wrath of God' in judgement because they didn't believe His Son and persecuted His Saints. They went into the 'second death' instead of dying in and/or for Christ.

[@pamelabaske4060]

Cant wait to hear more! Thanku for responding. Will prayerfully consider as I wait for this teaching.

[@dougking573]

I need to hold off on this one. I definitely see a full preterist eschatology but I don't see the evidence from this that there isn't still a literal hell and lake of fire. I hope you are right. So, I assume you conclude that all the testimonies of people claiming they saw hell and people they knew there are all lies or very bad dreams? My dad, who is not someone to make a story up and was hesitant to believe anything supernatural or spiritual, saying he had an experience of hell after me witnessing to him for years, was not telling the truth? By the way, he finally got saved after that encounter. I am open and do not intend to be critical.

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

This is a fair position to take my Brother. Certainly take Your time with all things Scriptural. That said... I see no precedence for a 'literal hell' in the Old Testament; Also, it appears to me all the 'fire' language that is used across the board with Scripture is always pointing to a judgment on an earthly nation. Example: It rained fire & brimstone on Sodom and Gomorrah. Clearly an earthly judgment. As for the experience Your Dad had. I believe he really had some kind of experience. I see no reason not to believe him. That said, the writer of Revelation had a lot of frightening visions as well; locusts and 7-headed sea beasts and dragons etc...Daniel was also horrified at the vision of the Beasts that he saw. So ultimately, a frightening vision, dream or experience doesn't equate to a permanent dwelling place for unforgiven souls. Some people have had 'near death experiences' and go to heaven; often times they aren't believers; most of them come back with different visions; are they lying? I don't think so; not all of them. So, best as I can tell, the visions or experiences are real, but ultimately they help these folks become (through fear or bliss) better people; maybe that's the ultimate purpose for the experiences. Jesus said that God is kind to the evil and the unthankful in Luke 6:35. The Scriptures say that God delights in His mercies. These Scriptures (and more) lead me to believe that God is kinder than many often think. I have a video called 'Mercy over Anger'. You might want to check that out. Something to consider.

Thanks Shade ! How do you reconcile Luke 16:22-24? ( The Rich Man and Lazarus )

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

Great question! If we look at Luke 16, You will see there are 4 parables before this text. Then, in Luke 16:14 You will note that the Pharisees 'heard' those parables and were 'covetous' and they 'derided' Jesus. He gives them a bit of a scolding, and then rolls into what I call a 'prophetic parable' spoken to let the Pharisees know that their arrogance will prevent them from believing Jesus is Messiah, even though He will raise Lazarus from the dead, and He Himself will be raised from the dead. Luke 16:31 (in my opinion) is the main conclusion of the text. To help further my point, I think You will see that there is no mention of belief or unbelief in the parable; simply the rich guy was indifferent to the poor man; it doesn't even say that the poor man was a believer or a good man or anything of that nature. So the imagery given in the parable is not (in my opinion) intended for 'heaven and hell' doctrine. I think the text is to point out the dark hearts of the Pharisees of the time and how they are going to end up in the Roman/Jewish war (aka: lake of fire) because of their dark hearts, self justification, and unbelief.

[@ElVivirEsCristo]

How do you explain the abomination of desolation using the “signs” that were recorded by Josephus and Tacitus. What marked the 3 and a half years of tribulation. Was it the Cow that gave birth to the lamb?

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

I'm not sure if You seen my video called 'History Proves Jesus Returned in 70AD'. (if you haven't, you might enjoy it)...That said, I think that was one of the signs...the other was a 'sword shaped star' hovering over Jerusalem for a year. Also, there seems to be consistent witness to wild things happening up in the skies. As for the 'Abomination of Desolation'...I think that is best described in Luke 21...when the armies surrounded Jerusalem...and the zealots had taken over the temple...that war brought on the 'desolation' of Jerusalem and the temple as prophesied.

[@Buckeye_Bill]

Question (not sarcasm): so does this mean you are not inclined to believe in any second worse form/layer of punishment after their spiritual judgment at the time of desolation? Why or why not?

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

I love how You worded this question! I do believe there are 'spiritual consequences' in their resurrection. Daniel 12:2 seems to point to 'shame' as part of that positional judgement. But ultimately, Jesus said in Luke 6:35 that God is 'kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.' So it would stand to reason that the consequences would have to be 'corrective' in nature and with some degree of grace & mercy because as Psalm 136 says, His mercy endures forever. Thanks again for the great question!

[@screenname1]

The word used for waters in Revelation is not the same used for seas later on. Also, when scripture is meant figuratively we're given decoded meaning. This is how we know the difference between seas meaning people or actual seas.

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

@@screenname1 Thank You for Your comment! I agree. That said, waters is said to be 'nations and peoples' in the context of Revelation. But 'Seas' is where the Beast Kingdoms always came out of. Daniel 7:2-3 - In my vision in the night I looked, and suddenly the four winds of heaven were churning up the great "Sea". Then four great beasts came up out of the "Sea", each one different from the others: By Daniel 7:17 You read this: ‘These four great beasts are four kings who will arise from the earth. So the same 'Beast Kingdoms' that come up 'out of the Sea'...are the same Kingdoms that are actually 'Gentile Kingdoms' on the 'earth'. So when it says 'no more sea' in Revelation, I believe it is allegorically pointing to the ending of those prophesied Kingdoms. Thanks again!

[@screenname1]

​@@ShadeStoneMusic Hmm. We must take into account that the Old Testament was written in Hebrew. The two occasions where Daniel uses the word sea, are rendered Yam. No arguments there, but in the book of Revelation two different words are employed. Hudor in Revelation 17:15 is waters, describing peoples. But later in chapter 21 when we're told there'll be no more sea, the word thalassa is employed, deriving from hals, or salt. This indicates actual sea.

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

@@screenname1 The New Testament was written in Greek; translated from the Septuagint, so that might be why. That said...the Scripture says 'no more sea'. But we have many seas in the world; and even in the first century, there were several 'seas'. It doesn't say there will be 'no more seas' (plural). Beyond that, what about the Oceans? and How about all the Rivers and Lakes? and Ponds? My point is that Revelation is loaded with symbolism and allegories. If we literalize that Book, many things won't add up; at least not in my opinion. Something to consider.

You said there is no lake of fire in the OT.

Revelation 20:12-15 (ESV) 12 And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Then another book was opened, which is the book of life. And the dead were judged by what was written in the books, according to what they had done. 13 And the sea gave up the dead who were in it, Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them, and they were judged, each one of them, according to what they had done. 14 Then Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire. 15 And if anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

Yes, this is also a good one! I considered this Scripture, but I didn't want the video to be too long. As You are pointing out, the 'fire' is from God in the heavenly realm. You can see the 'judgement'. Who is getting judged in the Book of Daniel? Clearly, the judgement is upon the nation of Old Covenant Israel. Therefore, the 'lake of fire' speaks to the judgement upon them in the First Century. PS - What I meant by 'you won't see the lake of fire in the Old Testament' is that you won't find the literal 'lake of fire' stated that way; therefore, you find it only by seeing the 'fire-like' judgement of a nation in the Old Testament, and therefore that's what it is in the New Testament.

Adversary/satan is not in the LOF. But rather is loosed & causing war & chaos all over the earth. What is there to look forward to? God ending this little season & throwing satan in the LOF. Full preterism actually teaches that satan will never be thrown in the LOF cuz they teach that evil & opposition to God will continue to exist on earth throughout the ceaseless ages of eternity where God will not conquer the adversary but let it live forever on earth breeding antichrist governments for infinity. This teaching denies the scripture that Paul wrote saying Christ must reign till He puts down all opposing rule & authorities. This teaching denies that God will fulfill His oath that His glory will cover the earth as the waters cover the sea. The general concept of preterism is correct. Namely that Christ returned in 70ad and destroyed the city & temple & ended the old covenant age. But they stop there & say it's all over, that the fullness of God's plan has been consummated. That is not true. Christ still has work to do in the new covenant age. That work is the subduing of the nations. As of right now, all opposing rule & authority has not been put down. But it will be soon enough when God ends the little season. Peace!

Gen 1:1 can be translated as 'in a beginning' . It doesn't say when angels were created either.it seems there are other, prior realms.

Thank You for sharing! That said, we do hear of angels all throughout the Old Testament. There is literally no mention at all of the Lake of Fire. Not it's creation...or it's existence.

We don't interpret the New Testament from the old. It's just the opposite.

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

I have heard this perspective before. That said, if we ignore the Old Testament language, then the 'Lake of Fire' becomes 'a guess' and/or something that it is not. Whereas, if we use the Old Testament, we can see that it is allegory for the judgment of God upon a nation, and in the context of Revelation, it's the Roman/Jewish war.

[@defwebsolutions]

Ok so, You're opening a huge can of worms with this, but I think it's okay to have different interpretations as long as that person is a true brother or sister in christ and are doing their best to interpret something. We can all learn from each other.And if we're closed off it makes it difficult to gather enough information that God may be sending each individual person to help us all gain a more complete picture of the narrative. However, I feel that because of all the large differences so many of us have, it's proof of a grand multitude of deceptions deliberately used to divide and conquer many of us Christians. If we can't figure out where we are in the timeline, we're in danger of more deceptions and so that's why i feel we're in the little season. To me, Satan is very busy creating fake narratives and a world stage repeating his old tactics and it's very apparent all around us. Could it be just people doing it maybe, but there's a grand intelligence behind it and worldly worship of lucifer that leads me to believe he's here and orchestrating it. Like i said before, how can an army surround a camp or city if it's not a literal place? And how can God rein fire down from heaven unless the city is not in heaven and isn't below heaven? I appreciate you brother and will continue to watch.

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

I love this commentary! I sincerely need my 'Little Season' Saints to watch my back. I think we would all agree that none of us can be absolutely certain (including me of course), and so it is important that my brothers and sisters stick around to keep me grounded and aware that there is still plenty of nefarious nonsense around us. I appreciate You Bro!

[@defwebsolutions]

​​@@ShadeStoneMusicYeah I mean I don't know how grounded I am l o l. However, There is a very concerning side to all of this stuff. And that is the fact that you were absolutely right, that the saints in the first century really had a grounded framework and a lot of help that we just don't have right now. That concerns me a lot, especially since most of the Christians, are still waiting for Christ to return and only a few of us. I think correct in seeing that he has already come but because of that divide and even the division between partial Preterist and full prederist, It's concerning to me that we don't have that common ground like they did.

Is this dude a 'there is no hell, you're all good and can relax' type?

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

The first part is accurate. God is kind to the evil and the unthankful...that's Luke 6:35; 1st Timothy 4:10 says God is the Savior of all men...So yes, I conclude there is not torture chamber set up by a loving God. That said, God is not mocked...You and I will reap what we sow...Therefore, we will all be judged as 2nd Corinthians 5:10 says; So I do not suggest that anyone just 'sits back and relaxes' but rather, I would encourage all to do good things as often as possible so that God's rewards will be plentiful towards you.

[@SheepAmongG.O.A.T]

@@ShadeStoneMusic Well referring to it as a torture chamber obviously shows some bias, but whether hell exists or not just in case there is I'm going to believe there is. What do you think of those who have claimed to see hell whether in vision or when they died for a short time. Bill Weise comes to mind.

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

@@SheepAmongG.O.A.T ...I don't mind saying that 'Eternal Conscious Torment' sounds like a 'torture chamber' to me. But if you see it differently, I am certainly willing to listen. As for those claims of 'seeing hell'...the issue I have with all near death experiences is that the testimonies are inconsistent. I've seen testimonies from atheists, agnostics, new agers, and yes, christians saying a variety of different claims and views and experiences they had when they went to the 'heavenly realm'. So those 'heavenly testimonies' aren't reliable in my opinion...because they all say different things. So I apply the same thinking to those who have had near death experiences that are dark experiences.

[@SheepAmongG.O.A.T]

@@ShadeStoneMusic Yeah I thought the same thing so I asked myself what is the differentiating factor that separates them and decided it's the visions. If you deleted all the 'near death' and just looked at visions (like Bill Weise) it gets more streamlined. Joel and Acts both talk about young men seeing visions and old men dreaming. Regardless of who or when that was directed to I do take visions and dreams serious. Near death like you said I don't. There is something off there. All I can say is they definitely believe what they're saying. Anyway if there is no real consequence to sin then sin wins at the end of the day.

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

@@SheepAmongG.O.A.T I will have to check out Bill Weise. But visions certainly seem more credible and consistent. As for 'sin winning'. I don't think so. The Law of Moses only increased sin. Romans 5:20 confirms this Scripturally. But Grace & Truth which was by Christ Jesus, reduces sin. This is confirmed also in Romans 5:20. I understand the world isn't perfect, but I think through grace we can both agree that women are treated better today...that workers are treated better today...that there are more options available for people struggling with different things etc...There is light in the world still. A light that in my opinion, didn't exist before Christ.

The Lake of Fire happened 586bc. Isaiah 4:4 NASB20 When the Lord has washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion and purged the bloodshed of Jerusalem from her midst, by the spirit of judgment and the spirit of burning,

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

So what about the 70AD destruction? Was that not a 'lake of fire' event? And why did Jesus say in Matthew 23 that all the bloodshed from Abel to Zacharias would fall upon that first century generation? I agree that some of those prophecies were for 586BC...But Isaiah 28 for example, is clearly depicting the time of Christ. At least that's how I'm seeing it. Something to consider.

[@EricDavidHall]

@ShadeStoneMusic Isaiah 28 is about god's Plumb Line which names Zerubbabel as The Nazarene 536bc having The Seven Spirits of god from Isaiah 11. Zechariah 4:10 NASB20 - “For who has shown contempt for the day of small things? But these seven will rejoice when they see the Plumb Line in the hand of Zerubbabel-they are the eyes of the LORD roaming throughout the earth.” Zechariah 6:12 NASB20 - “Then say to him, ‘The LORD of armies says this: “Behold, there is a Man whose name is Branch, for He will branch out from where He is; and He will build the temple of the LORD. Zechariah 6:13 NASB20 - “Yes, it is He who will build the temple of the LORD, and He who will bear the majesty and sit and rule on His throne. So He will be a priest on His throne, and the counsel of peace will be between the two offices.”’

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

@@EricDavidHall ...Clearly Jesus prophesied of the destruction of the 70AD temple. So are you thinking that all of Isaiah was for 586BC and Jesus was prophesying for 70AD?

@@ShadeStoneMusic I'm sure the Romans were very angry...lol. They destroyed the temple, scattered the Jews and replaced them with their enemies.

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

@@MichaelPiazza-x6f You are more than likely correct. It appears in Revelation 17:17, that God confirmed that anger to fulfill His will.

[@YeshuaReigns2]

Great job bro! The LOF is not a realm where unbelievers are either annihilated or become eternal rotisseries. It is simply a painful fiery judgement on carnality & wickedness. There is a righteous goal intended here. It is to purify by "burning" away all vestiges of wickedness & carnality in mankind. You are correct. Wickedness is the fuel that keeps the "fire" going. The one word answer to what the LOF is, is judgement. However, here is where I differ: The LOF did not end in 70ad. That's when it BEGAN! Scripture tells us that judgement MUST BEGIN with the house of God. And it sure did back in 70ad. Judgement is now focused on the nations. God promised Jesus to give Him the nations for His inheritance. In the 70ad timeframe, the beast(Rome) & the false prophet(apostate Judah) were cast into the LOF. Those entities ceased to exist. The temple is gone, the sacrificial system is gone, the old covenant is gone, & the roman empire is gone. But the adversary/satan is still here. This adversarial entity started to raise its ugly head in the recent past after over a thousand years of christianity steadily grew & advanced during that time without an opposer to hinder it. Not so in today's world. The opposer is now blatantly busy opposing God, Christ, & His followers like what was done in the 1st century. Except that Jesus said they will never be able to unleash the magnitude of tribulation that they unleashed back then ever again. The most they will be allowed to do is provide a real threat, but revelation 20 shows us that God will cut it short & end it before it could reach that level. Then this satan/adversary will be cast into the LOF & join the beast & false prophet who were already there. And will be just as gone as they are & cease to exist. I don't believe that the LOF is a collection agency. Rather it's the divine version of OxyClean. Where God will cleanse this earthly realm of all the filthiness of carnality & wickedness. The last enemy that will be oxy-cleaned is death & the grave being thrown in the LOF. That means no death in any way, shape, or form will plague any place in God's kingdom realm of heaven & earth. In a sense, the LOF is an annihilation station. Cuz anything thrown there ceases to exist. And the fuel is wickedness, not people. Any human thrown in the LOF will be cleansed of all carnality & wickedness. God is the savior of all men. Especially those that believe. After all carnality has been oxy-cleaned, then all will willingly bow & swear allegiance to Christ to the glory of God the Father. And then will Yahweh's oath to have His glory cover the earth as the waters cover the sea be fully realized. Then will Jesus's prayer for God's will to be done ON EARTH AS it is in heaven be answered. This could be why time is divided into ages. Ages have a beginning point & an ending point. The judgement of the LOF or great white throne will probably take ages to accomplish. God created a lot of people and most will be judged by reaping what they sowed. I'm sure this will take some time. But that's something that God has lots of and He's already determined it. And in that context it's a done deal. Thanks for this presentation bro! Peace.

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

Awesome commentary as usual Bro! I must admit that I 'pushed' the title of the video with the intent to get folks to see that in the context of Revelation, it was about that 'judgement' as You mentioned in the first century rather than an 'infinity torture device'. The continuance of 'fire' must be duly noted. Thanks Bro!

[@xanderbarr1983]

Those things were written for us to learn...and fear...our God is a consuming fire, and we shall all stand before the Son in his Glory.dont think there is no judgement for wisconson and utah.its for all of us...those whose names are in the book are washed in the blood, and we shall all give account of the deeds we do in the body..dont believe men, believe the inspired word of God.

I certainly don't disagree...I think we are on the same page... Can our Nations be judged today? Yes indeed. Is that the judgment in Revelation? No. We are certainly called to learn from that event though. Thank You!

[@krisalan5327]

If there is no hell/lake of fire, is there a place for those that reject Christ ?

[@YeshuaReigns2]

Yes. It's judgement for the intent of correction.

[@krisalan5327]

@YeshuaReignsYeshuaReigns in this life or in the afterlife? Is there an afterlife ? I really could use like a summary video. I'm kinda familiar with preterism but some of this type of subject is all new to me

[@YeshuaReigns2]

@krisalan5327 That's a good question and I'm not sure yet. Either there's a separate resurrection for the wicked & they're judged in this realm or in the celestial realm. Although there is a scripture in one of the OT prophets that says "When your judgements are abroad in the earth, the inhabitants will learn righteousness". So it kinda makes me lean towards a judgement consigned to the earthly realm. Still studying that one.

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

@@krisalan5327 Your question is excellent! Some folks believe that people who reject God and Christ simply cease existing. Others believe there is still some kind of 'annihilation'. I don't take either of those positions personally. Allow me to give You a Scripture to ponder: 1st Timothy 4:10 - "...we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, specially of those that believe." Since it says 'all men'...I would suggest it's positional; those who reject appear to be positioned differently than those who are positioned with a 'full reward' as it says in 2nd John 1:8. You may want to consider watching a video I did called 'Universal Unequal Reconciliation'. It might give You something to consider. Thanks again for the comment and question!

[@Curtisthecrumble]

The lake of fire is part of the earth. It’s literally underneath us. It’s described in detail in the books that are not part of the Bible. Also he said “You shall die” because he was essentially dead. I’ve considered the things you have said but I read an account from a book called City Of God. In chapter 8 he said that Satan had been bound as the church started and he would be released at the end. I’ve also looked at the buried cities and everything the little season people are speaking on. Their theory has content. But this seems more like interpreting poetry.

[@YeshuaReigns2]

I'm of the opinion that the scriptures have everything that God wants us to know. Those other books are not holy inspired. They contain some good historical gems but that's it. They also reflect the fables that crept into the Israelite faith that contaminated it & were passed into the christian faith and man does today's christianity propagate a lot of junk.

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

I can't disagree that many of the folks I now call 'The Little Season Saints' have excellent points of view. And even though I lean heavily towards the interpretation that I'm offering, I would certainly not ignore what the other believers in the little season position are saying. Thanks for the honesty!

[@volleyblogSOCAL]

My argument would be the two verses that follow the lake of fire where it says “the lake of fire is the second death” and “whoever’s name was not written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire” It sounds to me like lake of fire isn’t just the punishment coming to Jerusalem. But after the final judgment the dead are raised and then separated.. is this the wheat and tares? But see, a full preterist needs to make a meaning for this part of revelation. But a partial preterist only needs to get up to rev 20:7 or 20:8

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

Thank You for this extremely fair position and commentary! I certainly have more to interpret and explain; no doubt about that. Something that I would put forth (simply to get our brains motivated) is to note that Revelation never explicitly mentions a 'first death' or a 'second resurrection'. Simply a 'first resurrection' and a 'second death'. This is something that is key to my interpretation that, Lord willing, I will be able to get to as we move forward. Thanks again!

[@volleyblogSOCAL]

@@ShadeStoneMusic I’m trying to put away everything I ever heard about revelation 20… but it just isn’t possible. But after re-reading it right now, it looks like it says those who did not take the mark and died were resurrected for the millennial reign for a set thousand years (could just mean a lot of years) but then it comes to and end where Satan must be released.. for the rest of the people who did take the mark are to remain dead until after the 1000 year reign… Then the rest of the people are judged at the lake of fire/great white throne judgment. It says they will be judged based off what they had done. But book of life is also present there, and maybe they still have a chance to have their name written into a literal or just a figurative book of life…

[@skadoosh20]

​@volleyblogSOCAL I think Rev 20 is not in order, that the later half happened before the first part. That the great white throne of judgement happened when Jesus returned, Matthew 25:31-34. I recommend two earth eschatology taught on channel: Brother Phil. He and his wife do a weekly show called Livin Beyond Satan's Little Season Show, formerly Livin in Satan's Little Season Show.

[@volleyblogSOCAL]

@@skadoosh20 I heard of that channel. I listened to them for a couple of episodes. They started off in the little season right? And they transitioned into full preterism..? I didn’t catch that same thing you did from revelation 20. I’ll read it again and see if what you’re saying could be true, but the last time I read it it sounded like it was going straight through the timeline, and not starting with the end.

[@skadoosh20]

@volleyblogSOCAL not full preterism because he believes first heaven and earth coexist with the new heaven and earth. That when Jesus returned was when his kingdom was set up on new earth. Rev 21,22, Isaiah 65,66 and Ezekiel 37-48 tell us what life is like there. It's bigger than here, because that's where all souls throughout history go when we die.

[@A-childOfGod-pp4ge]

It would do you well to read and study the entire Bible and not make guesses but, rather, pray earnestly to the Holy Spirit for understanding and in HIS time you will receive all understanding. Respectfully you are quite wrong in most of what you are passing on to viewers. Reading the Bible, studying it, is not a one time event either. Why would God Create a lake of fire on a perfect Earth, or tell Adam before him and Eve disobeyed, when there wasn’t a lake of fire on perfectly Created Earth? Do you know how much changed after their sin? You shouldn’t question God’s Word in this way, He has a purpose for absolutely everything. Here are your other Books in the Bible that talk about the pit of fire (lake) God’s Wrath (fire): Matthew 13:42 “and they will throw them into the fiery furnace, where people will wail and grind their teeth.” Matthew 18:8 “So if your hand or foot becomes a snare for you, cut it off and throw it away! Better that you should be maimed or crippled and obtain eternal life than keep both hands or both feet and be thrown into everlasting fire!” Matthew 25:46 “They will go off to eternal punishment, but those who have done what God wants will go to eternal life.” Mark 9:47 “And if your eye makes you sin, pluck it out! Better that you should be one-eyed but enter the Kingdom of God, rather than keep both eyes and be thrown into Gei-Hinnom, 48 where their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.” Nahum 1:6 Who can stand before His indignation? Who can endure the burning of His anger? His wrath is poured out like fire And the rocks are broken up by Him. Deuteronomy 4:24 For the Lord your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God. Jeremiah 4:4 “Circumcise yourselves to the Lord And remove the foreskins of your heart, Men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem, Or else My wrath will go forth like fire And burn with none to quench it, Because of the evil of your deeds.” BOTTOM LINE…ANYONE and EVERYONE who is antichrist (against or instead of Christ) will be forever tormented in God’s Wrath (pit of fire), plain and simple throughout Scriptures. There are only two choices, God or satan. Those not with God, Jesus Christ, are with satan, antichrist. There is no in between. OnlyJesuSaves ✝👑📖🇮🇱👍🏼🙏🏼❤

@@ChinchillaMonkey Thanks so much ❤🙏🏼 I’ve already put more than two cents in lol I am a woman, 56 now and baptized at 13. I try very hard, and it’s a struggle these days lol, to not speak out in the House of God ( in congregations), as taught in Scriptures for women to remain silent and not be preachers and speakers. God appointed men He chose for that, but He also says this of the men: James 3:1 Complete Jewish Bible 3 “Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, since you know that we will be judged more severely.” I sure wish every self ordained or man ordained speaker today would read that! But Jesus very clearly warned of false teachings, which is why we should read the Word ourselves and pray and trust the Holy Spirit to give us understanding in His timing, instead of man. Even the Disciples were confused, and don’t even need to mention the Pharisees lol. And this on women wanting to speak out: (2 versions KJV and CJB- the CJB is an awesome read! So much easier to understand 👍🏼 i compare with KJV and stay away from the other gazzilion translations which add and remove things, sadly) 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 King James Version 34 “Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law. 35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.” 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 Complete Jewish Bible 34 “let the wives remain silent when the congregation meets; they are certainly not permitted to speak out. Rather, let them remain subordinate, as also the Torah says; 35 and if there is something they want to know, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is shameful for a woman to speak out in a congregational meeting.” This is why women didn’t preach, teach in the Bible. The women helped the Apostles (and Jesus) during the ministry in the way women should, as helpers, and those also listeners of the Word. 1 Timothy 2 Complete Jewish Bible 2 First of all, then, I counsel that petitions, prayers, intercessions and thanksgivings be made for all human beings, 2 including kings and all in positions of prominence; so that we may lead quiet and peaceful lives, being godly and upright in everything. 3 This is what God, our Deliverer, regards as good; this is what meets his approval. 4 He wants all humanity to be delivered and come to full knowledge of the truth. 5 For God is one;[a] and there is but one Mediator between God and humanity, Yeshua the Messiah, himself human, 6 who gave himself as a ransom on behalf of all, thus providing testimony to God’s purpose at just the right time. 7 This is why I myself was appointed a proclaimer, even an emissary - I am telling the truth, not lying! - a trustworthy and truthful teacher of the Goyim. 8 Therefore, it is my wish that when the men pray, no matter where, they should lift up hands that are holy - they should not become angry or get into arguments. 9 Likewise, the women, when they pray, should be dressed modestly and sensibly in respectable attire, not with elaborate hairstyles and gold jewelry, or pearls, or expensive clothes. 10 Rather, they should adorn themselves with what is appropriate for women who claim to be worshipping God, namely, good deeds. 11 Let a woman learn in peace, fully submitted; 12 but I do not permit a woman to teach a man or exercise authority over him; rather, she is to remain at peace. 13 For Adam was formed first, then Havah. 14 Also it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman who, on being deceived, became involved in the transgression. 15 Nevertheless, the woman will be delivered through childbearing, provided that she continues trusting, loving and living a holy life with modesty.” Women should help plant seeds, passing the Good News of the coming Kingdom and how one can ensure their residence there for eternity, and how they can find ALL Truth through The Word of God, the Holy Scriptures, but not become teachers of God’s Word. Titus 2 Complete Jewish Bible 2 But you, explain what kind of behavior goes along with sound teaching. 2 Tell the older men to be serious, sensible, self-controlled and sound in their trust, love and perseverance. 3 Likewise, tell the older women to behave the way people leading a holy life should. They shouldn’t be slanderers or slaves to excessive drinking. They should teach what is good, 4 thus training the younger women to love their husbands and children, 5 to be self-controlled and pure, to take good care of their homes and submit to their husbands. In this way, God’s message will not be brought into disgrace. 6 Similarly, urge the young men to be self-controlled, 7 and in everything set them an example yourself by doing what is good. When you are teaching, have integrity and be serious; 8 let everything you say be so wholesome that an opponent will be put to shame because he will have nothing bad to say about us. 9 Tell slaves to submit to their masters in everything, to give satisfaction without talking back 10 or pilfering. On the contrary, they should demonstrate complete faithfulness always, so that in every way they will make the teaching about God our Deliverer more attractive. 11 For God’s grace, which brings deliverance, has appeared to all people. 12 It teaches us to renounce godlessness and worldly pleasures, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives now, in this age; 13 while continuing to expect the blessed fulfillment of our certain hope, which is the appearing of the Sh’khinah of our great God and the appearing of our Deliverer, Yeshua the Messiah. 14 He gave himself up on our behalf in order to free us from all violation of Torah and purify for himself a people who would be his own, eager to do good. 15 These are the things you should say. Encourage and rebuke with full authority; don’t let anyone look down on you. Many blessings, I pray, for you and yours, and prayers our Good LORD will show you ALL things when the time comes, provide you study God’s Word and seek answers in earnest❤🙏🏼✝👑📖 Numbers 6:24-26 Complete Jewish Bible 24 ‘Y’varekh’kha Adonai v’yishmerekha.

And a PS lol here is a scripture in reference to “preterism” 2 Timothy 2 KJV 16 “But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness. 17 And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus; 18 Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.” 2 Timothy 2 16 CJB 16 “But keep away from godless babbling, for those who engage in it will only become more ungodly, 17 and their teaching will eat away at people like gangrene. Hymenaeus and Philetus are among these; 18 they have missed the mark, as far as the truth is concerned, by saying that our resurrection has already taken place; and they are overturning some people’s faith. 19 Nevertheless, God’s firm foundation stands, stamped with these words: “The Lord knows his own,”[a] and, “Let everyone who claims he belongs to the Lord stand apart from wrongdoing.”[b]”

Preterists find AD 70 under every rock. (I'm a full pret.) But I don't think that the chapters you ascribe to AD 70 work. Isaiah was written between 740 BC and 701 BC. The judgment of Judah/Jerusalem in front of Isaiah was 586 BC (by the Babylonians), not AD 70 unless you think there was dual fulfillment.

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

Thank You for Your comment! Some of the chapters were for when Babylon destroyed the first temple. I was so focused on communicating that 'the lake of fire' is an allegorical depiction of God's judgement on Jerusalem that I missed some detail. It was simply an oversight on my part so Thank You for pointing that out. That said, I do think that many of the ones I quoted were for 70AD like Isaiah 28 for example. It is depicting Christ as the 'Precious Corner Stone'. Thanks again!

[@medicalmisinformation]

Yes but what if all that was accomplished AD 70 was a warning to and a microcosm of the whole earth and the whole of humanity?

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

This is a great question for us all to ponder! Interestingly enough Paul writes in 1st Corinthians 10:11 - Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the age are come. So I think we can see the warning in this understanding. Is the first century destruction a microcosm of the whole earth and humanity? I lean towards no because of Ephesians 3:21 and some other verses; but is that speaking to infinity or a really really long time? A degree of mystery always remains. Thanks Bro!

[@medicalmisinformation]

@ShadeStoneMusic I think that AD 70 is the antitype so that once we obey the rules of hermeneutics and get in focus the immediate historic fulfillment, we can then exegete general lessons about God's attitude towards unrepentant apostasy, betrayal, corruption, and the interplay between false religion and secular government in all ages. For example, western civilization is in an obviously feral beastliness where there is no longer any good faith effort to enforce any version of justice, and "Christian zionists" are openly riding that antichrist beast to enforce a false gospel. The state of Israel is degenerating into a giant Masada before our eyes as the West provokes Russia to throw her off the parapet like Jezebel. We can recognize and expound upon all these resonances without falsely claiming they're actual fulfillments of actual prophecies, just as John Baptist could recognize in Herodias the spirit of Jezebel.

@@ShadeStoneMusic the second part of the OP question where do we go when we die?: Jesus made reference In Matt 15,21-28, where he refers to true Pagan Gentiles as "Dogs" ...the Dogs were found outside of the new Jerusalem in Revelation. All dogs go to heaven!

@@duanedahl8856 ...That's actually wild enough to make sense! Thanks for sharing this.

Hades is the correct translation, not hell. Hell is a mistranslation of proper nouns, hades, sheol and tatarus. See Youngs literal translation. Thank you for the video. I do agree that the revaltion of John is his version of the olivete discourse and was fulfilled in AD70.

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

Thanks Bro! Since You mentioned 'Tartarus'. If You don't mind, and if You have the time...could You share what You learned about that? No pressure. I just like getting other people's perspectives. Thanks again!

That was a really great study! I do see that Revelation is the fulfillment of Isaiah in the Roman war, but is that the end of the lake of fire - or just that particular prophecy? Having the details of the who, what and why of Jerusalem's destruction seems to set forth not just the biblical example but perhaps the type for all wars that have ensued since. I am thinking of these verses: Rev 19:2 For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand. Rev 19:3 And again they said, Alleluia. And her smoke rose up for ever and ever. Rev 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. Rev_20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. Rev 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. Rev 22:14 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. Rev 22:15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. It seems to me that this lake of fire has a continuance even after the Kingdom arrives since it exists outside the city of the New Jerusalem?

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

I really appreciate how You are gleaning from this! Basically...God is still God!! I think that is what You are seeing. Is the Lake of Fire in Revelation about us? No It's about the judgment in the first century on Ancient Jerusalem in my opinion. But can a 'Lake of Fire' happen again? Yes; in my opinion; the judgment upon any and all Nations can continue.

PRETERISTS, HISTORISTS are taking away from the worst horror the world will see (Matthew 24:21), when the earth shakes to and fro like a drunkard (Isaiah 24:20), as the pit is opened (Revelation 9:2) and the locusts are released (Joel 2:25). John received the book of Revelation. Yet, he was told that he would be coming back at the end. Revelation 10:11 And he said unto me, Thou must prophesy AGAIN before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings. That revelation (given within the past 2 decades):

Lake of Fire not a created realm. Wow

Thank You for commenting!

[@ronweber4508]

What’s next, Jesus is just a good example?LOL

[@FreddyPrays]

Yes but what about after revelation 20 where it says: 10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. And also says: 15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. That's all supposed to happen after the millenial reign of christ...during the destruction of Jerusalem in 70AD the millenial reign had not yet started. You would need to read 1000 years as non-literal which I don't agree with. Also, where is the new heaven and the new earth? Why is there sin still here? Why is Satan embedded into our earthly upper echelon? It makes way more sense that this is the little season of deception immediately after a millenial reign that Satan is hiding and that judgment is coming.

[@YeshuaReigns2]

Exactly! And this is exactly where full preterism fails. It fails in the timing of the millennium reign/satan's thousand year binding. Full preterism cannot scripturally prove that it started in the 30s ad & ended in 70ad. It's impossible to prove that cuz scripture tells us explicitly when the reign started.

[@skadoosh20]

The new heaven and new earth (Rev 21,22) is the kingdom of heaven. This is where Jesus reigns from his throne, Rev 21:5, and has since his return, Matthew 25:31-34. Where the New Jerusalem is. Where the lake of fire is, and this is the second death. Because according to Isaiah 65,66, there are mortals and immortals there. Where the land divided between the twelve tribes of Israel is (Ezekiel 47,48). And it is huge, bigger than here because this is where all souls throughout history go at death. It's a separate earth from here, first earth. New earth and first earth coexist because "passed away" in the Bible, specifically Rev 21:1, means to pass by or to come to. Passed away in the Bible doesn't mean destroyed or ended.

[@mewzy2283]

Where are we now in the timeline of scripture?

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

Great question! Thank You. Some would suggest that we are in Revelation 20...which is often times called 'Little Season'. I personally lean towards the position of Ephesians 3:21; there it says it's a 'world without end'. I don't think there is an end to world history; I get the sense from Scriptures that we come to the 'end of ages'. So we may be approaching an end to an age, but not to the world. So if I am accurate, then we are technically nowhere in a timeline, because there is no ending.

[@screenname1]

What about Revelation 12 and 13? When did they happen?

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

@@screenname1 ...Thank You for Your question! I covered this topic in a couple of my recent videos...I would recommend that You watch 'The Number of The Man is 666' ; and also 'Jesus Conquered The Beast in 70AD' Video...and if You have enough time, the 'Harlot was destroyed in 70AD' video may also help to get a sense of the interpretation that I'm offering. Thanks again!

[@screenname1]

​@@ShadeStoneMusic Revelation 12 describes Satan's ejection from the celestial realm, his persecution of Israel, their fleeing to the wilderness for 1,260 years, his attempt to wipe them out with a failed flood swallowed by the Earth, and his going to war with their remnant who have the testimony of Christ. 13 describes in more detail how he overcame these saints by raising a 1,260 lease empire which falls and is reborn, deified through the miracles of a mimic which include talking broadcast images. All this took place before 70AD?

[@marekfamulla]

How do you understand Satan being thrown into the lake of fire?

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

Great question! So, since the 'Lake of Fire' is describing the Roman Jewish War which was essentially the 'judgment of God' upon Ancient Israel; and since the 'synagogue of Satan' were the first century Israelites that rejected & persecuted Christ and His people, I see it as all evil (including the evil leadership) 'reaping what they sowed'.

[@marekfamulla]

@@ShadeStoneMusic Okay, I thought about this option too 👍

[@ShadeStoneMusic]

@@marekfamulla ...Kool! Just to add to this edifying chat...This is what I do not think it means: 'That all evil will be gone from this world and no one will ever do any bad things ever again'...I simply don't think that it means that at all.
