That's not a parable, that's a prophecy using a metaphor, or being figurative or a simile or an allegory, etc.

It's not called a jubilee calendar, it's based on a 360 day lunar cycle. The "jubilee" year was the 50th year. The number 70 has nothing to do w/ jubilee.

Nothing is in impossible with God and I don't believe it is based on a jubilee calendar which is the first I've heard of that one. The 70th week was for Israel to accomplish something which they failed to do. God in his mercy is going to give them another chance and this one will be successful...

Totally convoluted eschatology, imo.

That's one opinion and you're entitled to it, as I am to mine.

I know you'll probably disagree but the quotes don't say his first advent was the DoL. Acts 2:17-18 were fulfilled and are still happening. It's not mentioned until the last part of vs. 20 "after" speaking about the signs of the 6th seal which hasn't happened yet. They are the signs that the DoL...

The problem with that is the prophecy wasn't for us it was for national Israel. Yes, we have all that in Jesus but national Israel does not, yet, but they will. If they had kept on accepting Christ, on a national level, after the triumphant procession than vs. 24 would have been fulfilled but...

Ok, sorry, I've been responding to a lot of posts. Imo, John 5:25-26 sounds like the rapture/resurrection folks receiving eternal life ("My sheep know my voice") spoken about "first" by Jesus, then in vs. 28 he emphasizes another time when "all" in the grave will hear his voice which, imo, is...

I did from Zech. There are many prophetic things that can't be "proved" w/ scripture one way or another. Sometimes all we can do is create a likely scenario that lines up w/ the whole of prophecy. I'd be surprised if we've been given more than 50% of the details of end times prophecy. We also...

The DoL is over a 1000yrs. long, it begins w/ the signs of the 6th seal but it's not an earth destroying event until after the mill as scripture shows. The DoL has many parts to it, basicaly everything from the 6th seal to the GWTJ. The first advent of the Messiah was not the Day of the Lord.

Not when they elect to do so."Deprived" implies against one's will, that is not the case of the 144,000. I believe they are mostly children.

The 70th week is still future, the gap is right there in the text of Dan. 9.

No, I agree w/ that one but regarding the trumpets, the 7th trumpet is years before the end of the 70th week, the reality of its claims are spoken foreward in faith because the wrath of the Lamb is completed with the 7th trump but there wrath of God begins next. The 7th trump is not the "last"...

Yes, they are mortal and yes flesh and blood can live in the millennial kingdom because that is who it was always meant to be for. Paul is referencing heaven, not Christ's earthly kingdom, that he will rule w/ a rod of iron. If he was ruling the kingdom of God w/ a rod of iron consisting of only...

I consider it as "rightly dividing the word of truth". That's pretty uncommon nowadays.

I believe your interpretation of time is incorrect, agree to disagree.

Scriptures interpreted incorrectly are worse than opinions.

Apparently you don't believe any of the scriptures that say otherwise. There are way too many proofs to provide and I gave you a sample yet you refuse to believe God's word, I'm done. Here's a fact, take it or leave it. "Every" OT prophecy that speaks of "in that day", the day", etc. is...

By the time Matt. 25 happens, the church has already been to heaven and rec'd their rewards, if any. Matt. 25 is judging the survivors of the 70th week, sheep enter the millennium as humanity, goats go to hell. The millennial kingdom is for the living although a minority will reign with him, the...

Of course. Matt. 25 is a judgment of the living, the goats go to hell the sheep enter the millennium retaining their humanity to repopulate the earth. Rev. 20 is the judgment of the dead, the GWTJ. Yeah, their probably the same place just folks arriving at different times. Imo, nothing in...
