Daniel 9:24 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 reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy. 25...

I don't think you two are remotely on the same page here. I'm pretty sure I saw the other poster submit both Luke 21:28 and Zechariah 14:5 to make their point. So why are you bringing up something that has zero to do with Luke 21:28 and Zechariah 14:5? Regardless where one wants to insist what...

That might be like saying, take Paul for example. Imagine saying to him 2000 years ago, "Paul, I don't reject the words of the Lord, I reject your interpretation of His words". As if somehow, by rejecting Paul's interpretation of the words of the Lord, this does not equal rejecting the words of...

What has to be factored in, if not meaning in the literal sense, is this. This same land in question is where wherein their fathers have dwelt, and this same land is what He gave unto Jacob His servant. Let's entertain the idea, that when applying this land to the here and now, or even to the...

How can the 3rd woe be meaning the beginning of the 42 months when the following is already involving the 42 months before the 7th trumpet even sounds? Revelation 11:7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against...

And where do some Amils have these reigning as kings and priests per verse 4 and 6 in Revelation 20? In heaven, that is where. But where does the text indicate they reign as kings and priests? Unless I can't read properly in this case, it looks like to me it says where they shall reign as kings...

What I'm trying to get to the bottom of here, this land in question, what is meant by it? IOW, how does God Himself want us to understand this land meant? In the literal sense or some other sense? Why this matters is because this very same land meant is the same land wherein their fathers have...

What about this verse, though? Ezekiel 37:25 And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their children, and their children's children for ever: and my servant David shall be their...

Have you tried looking at 2 Peter 3:8 like such? that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. Suppose the text had said this instead? that one day is with the Lord as 24 hours, and 24 hours as one day. Would it would not that literally be true? If it...

I guess per your view of things, if a thousand years can mean 40 literal years, I guess 42 months, the duration of great tribulation BTW, it can equal 2 literal 24 hour days instead. But only in your world, not in mine.

I tend to think it simply means there is a set amount of time set aside reserved for this where it doesn't exceed that. For example, 42 months. Not 43 months, not 60 months, but 42 months. Therefore, these days have been shortened since it could have been much longer in duration, such as 60...

You just don't get it, do you? Don't feel alone, though. There are even Amils that don't get it, either. You would think if anyone gets it, it would at least be Amils that do. Let's assume the following is meaning in the literal sense, that it means exactly what it says. Matthew 24:15 When ye...

If that is meaning in the literal sense, then so is the following since it is clearly recorded in Matthew 24 as well. Luke 17:31 In that day, he which shall be upon the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field, let him likewise...

Anyone that is arguing that 70 AD is meant by Matthew 24:21, that is basically what they are arguing. Which then contradicts what Jesus said in that verse and it contradicts reality, when even WW1 and WW2 were greater in scale than 70 AD. How you have not heard that interpretation before...

True, but keep in mind this. In the OT, in the book of Daniel, for example, that's pretty much what 'destroy' typically means throughout that book, meaning this Hebrew word--'shachath'. Why would any interpreter assume there is no connection to 2 Thessalonians 2:4 anywhere in the book of...

My point was this. Per your example of WW1 and WW2, even that surpasses in greatness the events pertaining to 70 AD. Therefore, 70 AD can't be meant per Matthew 24:21 because even WW1 and WW2 surpasses 70 AD in greatness and in scale. Yet, WW1 and WW2 are not even meaning what Matthew 24:21 and...

What are they going to argue now? That WW1 nor WW2 fit the description of a time of trouble?

It's simple. The logic would be this. If one is applying Matthew 24:21 to the future involving a rebuilt temple in Jerusalem, and that they also agree that Daniel 12:1 is the same events as Matthew 24:21, the same has to apply to Daniel 12:1. that it's involving a rebuilt temple in Jerusalem...

Common sense alone undeniably says something local cannot equal nor surpass in greatness something global. Let's just throw common sense out the window altogether per this one. Your nonsense--Matthew 24:21 is a local event. And that a global event cannot equal nor surpass a local event, since...

Has it ever crossed your mind that maybe a singular abomination can lead to plural abominations? IOW, because of this singular abomination it gradually results in numerous abominations.
