Others as in God Himself. You've been shown previously that the 2 Thessalonians 2:4 temple is the spiritual temple of the believer in Christ, collectively His Church.

Yes, just like they planned to build the demolished one. :laughing:

Dispensational futurism is deceived by its inability to distinguish between Paul's spiritual and physical temples. There'll be no "temple Israel builds" in the future, as there was no temple when Israel tried to build in the past. Paul's temples: "naos" spiritual: 1 Corinthians 3:16 Know ye...

I'm stocked up on popcorn. Sozomen (ca. A.D.375-447) "Ecclesiastical History" Book V, Chapter XXII Though the emperor [Julian the Apostate] hated and oppressed the Christians, he manifested benevolence and humanity towards the Jews. He wrote to the Jewish patriarchs and leaders, as well as to...

You claim to be historicist, so what recognized Reformation historicists agree with your claim about the Kingdom of God? Evidence, please. Names, sources, verbatim quotes.

Obviously you don't grasp that Tiberius ruled "in the days of these kings" when Christ set up the Kingdom of God. Who does that? Not I. I see you've omitted Zechariah 13:7, so obviously you now agree that Jesus Himself exegeted that verse (Matthew 26:31; Mark 14:27), which makes no mention of...

"My doctrine". Trademark of a cult. :laughing:

Obviously you don't comprehend what "Jesus quoted" means. So just leave it for those who do. :laughing:

So then dazzle us with your unmisrepresented versions in your nonpreterist fashion. :laughing: And leave what you can't understand for those who can. :laughing:

You affirm such. The Scriptures do not. Jesus quoted Zechariah 13:7 the night of His betrayal (Matthew 26:31; Mark 14:27). He was referring to Himself (the Shepherd), and His disciples (the sheep), who would desert Him on that occasion. No mention of the Kingdom of God there except in your...

Don't you think that truth bears repetition? Since I exclusively cited Scripture, do you think that Scripture misrepresents Scripture? :laughing: If you have Scripture disproving what I've cited, then please cite yours.

Tiberius did not supplant Rome. He ruled Rome. In the days of Tiberius who ruled Rome, Christ set up His Kingdom. Mark 1 14 Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God...

In the days of Tiberius who ruled Rome, Christ set up His Kingdom. Mark 1 14 Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel...

The same way that it destroyed the entire image.

It did. It came during the time of the kings of the Roman empire. Mark 1:14,15

Yes, the primary focus of the Gospel during the 70th week was Israel. In the illustration in Daniel 2:35, the stone, representing the Kingdom of God (Daniel 2:44), instantaneously destroys the entire image containing the representations (gold, silver, brass, iron) of the four temporal world...

No. It is very clear that they were announced and fulfilled by Jesus in His day beginning with His ministry.

How many different understandings were floated, and by whom, before the year 1800 AD?

Verses 22-37 do not disprove verses 20-21. Daniel 9 27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week... Fulfilled: Matthew 26 NASB 27 And when He had taken a cup and given thanks, He gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you; 28 for this is My blood of the covenant, which...

Jesus announced the Kingdom of God and delivered: Luke 17:20,21 The 70th week began with Jesus' baptism circa 27 AD. We all need to recognize what Christ has accomplished for us beginning long ago.
