Hi,
Given that those who wish to be in the first resurrection will be one Bride and ancient Israel, resurrected and converted the other then shouldn't those folk pray for the Work God, our Creator is doing - even using Russia/Mr Putin, Mr Lavrov etc? In other words no Moslem can pray for Mr Putin since he worships the monotheism of the ancient city of Ur and someone has to, ergo, it must be those destined to the first resurrection as ancient Israel is presently dead and the rest of the world worships Trinitarian and other gods.
Let's do our part and pray that the wisdom of Solomon, and more than that plus angelic help if Russian forces face being overwhelmed will give Mr Putin, RF Security Council and others the courage and wisdom to act in a timely way.
Regards, elderlyrstaff

Hi, Dr Linsley has a discussion of the kinship relationship of Keturah and Abraham (Abram) at Just Genesis blog. In it Keturah is a wife (Dec, 2009 post/reply jandyongenesis.blogspot.com.au/2008/06/keturah-wife-or-concubine.html)“I doubt that Keturah was a concubine, but agree that she was a second wife. This is the pattern of the chiefs among Abraham's people. One wife was a half-sister [in our discussion Israel of old – Jesus was a Jew] and the other was a patrilineal cousin [in our discussion The Church of God – resurrected to eternal life as a Bride of Christ, the Kingdom and Family of God – one brought in who had a family relationship (the brothers of Christ – our elder brother, the Son of God the Father]. Terah, his father, had 2 wives, and Nahor his grandfather also had 2 wives. Moses had 2 wives, as did Jacob. 1 Chronicles 1:32 was written long after and apparently seeks to reinforce the promise through Sarah's seed exclusively. All counted, Abraham had 8 sons, 9 sons if you count Eliezar of Damascus.” Regards, elderlyrstaff
