    The Orthodox Preterist versus the Heretical Dispensationalist

    The Orthodox church, doesn't have clear formulations of Eschatology. Christ will come in His glory and will judge the ungodly, we will be resurrected but the nature of our new spiritual body is still blurry and He will create a new heaven and earth. But really there is not much more detail and...

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    Personal attacks against my relationship with God are against forum rules. There are many disagreements in the arena of eschatology ... a half dozen or more views and then even differences within those views. Your implications are insulting, disgraceful and derogatory. This is typical with...

    And the truth is revealed in the immediate context that distinguishes two groups in Rev. 7, clearly and literally presented, one right after the other. But you are stuck on symbolism that's not there. Keep it.

    The Holy Spirit an I have a cooperative relationship. I doubt I grieve Him too much. He has truly enlightened my understanding of scripture for tha past 32 years.

    The common sense golden rule if Bible interpretation is: “When the plain sense of Scripture makes common sense, seek no other sense; therefore, take every word at its primary, ordinary, usual, literal meaning unless the facts of the immediate context, studied in the light of related passages...

    They won't get it no matter what you present to them ... Ah what the heck, I'll give it more shot. The most obvious clue here is the context of the 144k in Rev 7. Rev.7:4-8 specifically describe _ by name 12 tribes _ with a specific number. THE NEXT VERSE REVEALS A DIFFERENT GROUP ENTIRELY...

    People say you can not lose faith, God can't lose you, is that true?

    >>We are born spiritually blind. We are incapable of removing the veil of blindness. << God draws you to Himself through a series of events and people that come into your life to prepare you for that divine appointment. You become willing , when before you weren't at all interested. Before I...

    You are asking me? I submitted Zech. 14 and Romans 11 in Post #93 to support my argument. You said none of those passages had anything to do with Rev. 7 :3-8. Matt. 23:39 and Rev. 7:3-8 coincide as well with those passages as happening during or just prior to the Great Tribulation. These all...

    Nobody accept Enoch and Elijah has been raptured. That day for all Christianity is coming soon.

    Specific names of tribes is never used to describe something symbolically. Example: In Luke 16, we see the Rich man in Hades, a real location and Lazarus AND Abraham in Paradise, two locations separated by a gulf. Many think this is a parable. Parables never use names of real people like...

    Dead corpses? Everyone physically dies ... unless you are raptured.

    Answer a question with a question? We all believe in the Bible, but sometimes we interpret it differently. So you can believe in Romans 11 or Rev. 7 in a symbolic way, which is wrong and continue to claim you believe into those scriptures till the cows come home. Preterists believe in the book...

    Any photos of you and your Rabbi friend? Didn't think so. I didn't accuse you of anything. I asked you a simple question. >>> You didn't answer YES OR NO to this question: Do you believe that during the Great Tribulation (or just prior to it), the blindness of a remnant population of the Jews (...

    Hey David, that photo is of you and your kids right. Nice family. Is that you in the center with your around your son with the blue shirt? Since you are online now, can you present a photo of you and your Rabbi friend with arms around him with his long beard and his Sabbath garb in the next...

    I disagree. Replacement theology is common with Catholics and only some Protestants, so it is not an exclusive Dispensational view. Dispensation theology just means that God has an overall plan that is divided into acts/ segments if you will, where he dispenses judgments, changes, new...

    You can a claim like that online knowing nobody can or will verify it. I can't ask your wife or meet your Rabbi friend, so that is just heresay, propaganda like the Fake puts out for our consumption. Are Christians capable of lying online to save face? Lol, sure they are. But IF it is true, that...

    They will be grafted in to the Vine. Read Romans 11. You hung up on Replacement Theology. It's okay, believe what you want, go your way. I would like to add, those who believe this way are usually anti-Semitic. Watch out. I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And...

    Why do people desire for the end times to be for today? Serious Inquirey

    70 AD was a judgment pertaining to Jerusalem and the Jews. The Great Tribulation is judgment against All evil on the planet as is was during the Flood. As in the days of Noah so shall it be in the days of the coming of Jesus ... You are young, so your perspective of the world as it is is...
