Begin Excerpts from “Nation” & “People” in Hebrew and Greek
By Dr. Orville Boyd Jenkins
“I was aware that the Greek New Testament commonly uses the Greek word ethnos for the general references to ethnic groups.”
“The Koine writers of the New Testament use this Greek term ethnos with the same meaning with which LXX uses ethnos representing the Hebrew goi.
It is used with the same basic meaning that underlies our modern English words ethnic and ethnicity”
It seems in general the LXX usages in Greek were
the prevailing usage pattern in 1st century Judaism and the early Christians. Ethnos becomes the standard term in Greek usage for a basic ethnic entity.
In the New Testament, the word ethnos becomes the primary word referring to ethnic groups, such as Acts 17:26, “God made from one source all nations [ethne] of men.” The word phule is used in more specific references, similar to its usages in the Old Testament.
End Excerpts from “Nation” & “People” in Hebrew and Greek
Matthew 24:7,8 – For NATIONS (ETHNOS) shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
[8] All these are the beginning of sorrows.
I have already stated what this verse means in my discourse on the Olivet Discourse given by Jesus in Matthew, Mark, and Luke, and I have not changed my mind, but I do believe there will be increasing ethnic class warfare in America and across the globe before war breaks out in the Middle East.
When the Middle East war begins, I believe many individuals in the many ETHNIC groups among the NATIONS, will seek the Lord.
Acts 17:22-27 – Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars’ hill, and said, Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious. [23] For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD.
Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you. [24] God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands; [25] Neither is worshipped with men’s hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; [26] And hath made of one blood all NATIONS (ETHNOS) of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation; [27] That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us:
Individuals will be saved from the many ETHNIC groups in the many NATIONS during the Tribulation Period until the Seventh Trumpet Sounds, and will be taken to heaven, where they will be judged at Christ’s Judgment Seat for rewards while the wrath of God is poured on the Earth.
Revelation 10:7 – But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.
Revelation 11:15,18 – And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever. [18] And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
The saved will return with him at his Second Advent and live on this earth for 1000 years in glorified bodies, serving him throughout his reign over a population made up of child producing men and women,. After the 1000 years the Devil will return to the surface of the earth from his imprisonment in the bottomless pit interior of the earth. The physical occupants of the earth will follow him to utter destruction and will be separated from the saved for all eternity.
A CORRELATION BETWEEN THE NEXT 2 SCRIPTURES JUSTIFIES MY BELIEF THAT PEOPLE WILL BE SAVED UP TO THE 7TH TRUMP
Luke 21:11 – And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.
Acts 2:19-21 – And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke: [20] The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come: [21] And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
THE FOLLOWING SCRIPTURE JUSTIFIES THE SAVED WILL BE JUDGED IN HEAVEN DURING THE VIALS OF WRATH.
I Thessalonians 5:9 – For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,
I DON’T THINK GOD WILL WITHDRAW HIS MERCY FROM MAN PRIOR TO HIS WRATH! H IS LONGSUFFERING
IS ASTOUNDING. AND IT SHALL CONTINUE AT HIS 2ND ADVENT WHEN A JEWISH REMNANT WILL BE SAVED AS A NATION IN THE NEGEV WILDERNESS.
Hebrews 11:6 – But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
II Peter 3:9,15 – The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is LONGSUFFERING TO US-WARD, NOT WILLING that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. [15] And account that THE LONGSUFFERING OF OUR LORD IS SALVATION: even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;
I Timothy 1:14-16 – And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.
[15] This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. [16] Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that IN ME FIRST JESUS CHRIST MIGHT SHEW FORTH ALL LONGSUFFERING, for a pattern to them which should HEREAFTER believe on him to life everlasting.
