So Jesus was crucified in a spiritual congregation, and not literally in a physical place near a physical city? Revelation is doing more than contrasting. John saw what Satan's empire of Abomination of Desolation did to Jerusalem. Jerusalem was the seat of power, but Jerusalem became much...

"Government" does not equate to "faithful". God has nothing to do with government when it comes to the church. Matthew 18:20 "For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them." I think you mean that Rome took the lead in apostasy away from God's...

Daniel says they fight. John says they are all fallen. What else is there to understand Daniel, who got us to the Reformation, but could not see clearly until the NT removed some of the blurriness? The ten horns will not be known until after the Second Coming at the 6th Seal. Why would...

Ask that of those who think souls are currently naked in Paradise. The soul changes bodies like people change clothes. That is how Paul described the process. But a physical body in sheol? How does that work? Those redeemed in Paradise, do have a permanent incorruptible physical body...

The majority of the book is about what happens at the Second Coming, including before and after. Peter is comparing our time on earth with God's time. The Day of the Lord was first mentioned in Genesis 2. The baptism of fire may be over in a twinkling of an eye. All the works of man...

I never said one day is equal to a thousand years. Why do you make stuff up? The Day of the Lord is a figurative phrase pointing to a period of 1,000 years on the earth. Where does Peter state the Day of the Lord is a literal 24 hour day? The thousand years in Revelation 20 is the Day of...

You are reading that into the chapter that time is not relative to God. You made the point that 1,000 years is never addressed in the NT outside of Revelation 20. Peter told you not to be ignorant that the Day of the Lord is as a thousand years. In fact, if you go with that point, another...

You would have to quote some Jewish source to prove your point. Jesus knew that Paradise and the tree of life had been in heaven since it was moved there prior to the Flood. Your point either makes Jesus ignorant, or a liar. The word Paradise is not found in the OT, as the place where the...

How was the church based out of Rome, prior to Constantine? Are you saying the church was pagan controlled? Of course there were NT churches all over the known world, including India. We can see in Acts 2:9-11 that God gave them the ability to speak the Gospel in many tongues from around...

Yes, Isaiah 65 says all things are made new for that Day of the Lord, Millennium Kingdom. Daniel 9:24 states the transgression will be finished. "Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make...

How ironic. According to your alleged hyper literal interpretation, the earth ceases to exist. However according to your symbolic interpretation, the earth still ceases to exist. "And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out...

You will be beheaded, or take the mark. Those are the only two choices in that verse. There are no fence sitters who do not have to choose either way. The Atonement is taken away. No one can accept Salvation. That is the whole point of Abomination of Desolation. Either you take the mark...

You are saying that the Garden was destroyed and the tree moved. That is your guesswork. God took the Garden to heaven and it was Paradise always with the tree of life. There is no Scripture that states Paradise was opened so dead people could enter. There is no Scripture that states God...

You have no clue, as that blindness in part is still in affect until the Second Coming. Lost people are not condemned? I figured everyone knew that and understood them that way? Are you saved by your good works since you call yourself Israel? I am not saying you are. Just curious, as...

Which NT passage clearly shows Zechariah 14 has been fulfilled?

You are cherry picking based on human reasoning. Just because humans act one way, does not change how God sees them. Even Jesus on the Cross forgave "them", while you still see "them" as condemned. Paul was not splitting up his people into two groups. One you call believers, and the rest...

Revelation explains, thus interprets Daniel, not the other way around.

The soul puts on God's permanent incorruptible physical body, thus redeemed from the path of death, Adam placed on all his offspring because of disobedience. I never said the soul is immortal. Saying the soul is mortal or immortal is Greek pagan theology. Otherwise in English, simply death...

If Jesus left, it would say that. You are the one assuming Jesus left.

So you would rather change Scripture, and state Jesus failed to redeem the thief that day, but the thief would be redeemed from sheol in a couple thousand years, or more? You do not like that thief very well, to condemn him to sheol. Don't you also believe that the earth is desolate for...
