I take it to be involving the following, for one. Daniel 8:9 And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land. 10 And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host...

Here is some more of my thinking pertaining to the OP. If verse 27 can allegedly involve both the 70th week and outside of that week, the same should be true of verse 25 in a similar manner. That it involves both the first 69 weeks and outside of those weeks. Here's verse 25 in it's entirety...

What I am pointing out is this. All of Daniel 9:27 involves the 70th week. None of it is meaning outside of the 70th week. One is then being dishonest with the text, whoever that might be, if they have some of verse 27 involving the 70th week but not all of it. If they were to be honest with the...

The timing of it is already crystal clear, it is meaning at the beginning of when He initially bodily returns. Who this judgment is involving in particular, that's where others can't seem to get on the same page with me about. IOW, I feel I understand who the goats are meaning per this context...

And what about those of us that have no interest in astronomy, thus are basically clueless about those things? How are these alleged astronomical signs useful to us one way or the other?

Revelation 19:11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. 12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he...

I'm sorry to have to be blunt here, but an interpretation such as this, belongs in the trash, not something even remotely worthy of considering/entertaining. Maybe some feel the same way about the OP? But if they could only actually accept that every single thing recorded in verse 27 is...

Daniel 9:27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon...

Let me provide an example of something. The sheep and goats judgment and the way I interpret that. Before there was the internet, I already interpreted the sheep and goats judgment in the manner I still do. No church I ever attended interpreted it in this manner. Never read any books where...

I have to wonder if the sign of the Son of man can maybe be understood in the following sense? Ppl are sitting at a bus stop awaiting the arrival of a bus. One person asks, shouldn't that bus have already arrived by now? Do you see any sign of it anywhere? Then 5 minutes later the sign of it...

In the next post after yours here, #77, I finally try and deal with some of that. I guess better late than never.

On this side of life, of course. But Revelation 20:4 involves saints that were physically alive then martyred, thus in a disembodied state. And what you submitted above that I quoted, none of that could possibly be relevant to someone in a disembodied state. What I'm wanting Amils to deal...

I don't dispute that the parable you submitted via Matthew 22 pertained to what eventually happened in 70 AD. In the parable though, the King and the Son are not the same person. Just like per the trinity the Father and Son are not the same person. That parable says it was the King's armies, not...

It seems to me, for example, take Pretrib. There might be millions that believe that doctrine to be true, rather than just one person believing it to be true. This would still be an example of a private interpretation regardless that millions are interpreting it in the same manner. A private...

What about Revelation 20:4 though, and how Amils like yourself have them reigning in heaven in a disembodied state after they have been martyred and are awaiting the resurrection of their body? How can Hebrews 12:22-24 possibly apply to someone while in a disembodied state?
