Matthew, part of what is going on here is learning what folks believe. So when you have a conversation later you will know who and what you are dealing with. That comes from reading post after post and tagging the name to those posts. You have taken what I said about what I'm looking for next...

No, that's not the way it works, Matthew. I've already said that you are spreading false doctrine on these forums. The good buddy I love you thing is not going to cut it! I read every one of your study threads and have not agreed with any of them, and I am far from being the only one. This is...

Well, when you state something that another doesn't agree with, that leaves you with the burden of proof. That's what these boards are about, on the theology side. Preterism is much like Universalism ( it seems you are into both), they have no scriptural foundation. I wish Waiting in him would...

When someone says what they are looking for next to happen in God's timing according to the scripture, there are many, many things that must be explained. Skipping those things to be explained, I'm looking for the total redemption of my soul, spirit, and body. That takes place at the...

No, the timing of the rapture was not for the 1st century Christians. God had plan from the very beginning that's been in effect for about 6000 years now. That plan was redeeming man who He knew would fall having been given his own free will. Redemption is the story of the scripture from Gen...

Where many go wrong is this passage of scripture. Rom. 9:5-7 "Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel: Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called." This is just...

The timing of the resurrection is so debated that many doctrines have come from it. If you believe in the rapture, that is what the Church is looking for. Paul was looking for it in his lifetime, I'm looking for it in my lifetime, and so on. There are so many theories to the resurrection and...

It might serve you well to look up what a fundamentalist is and compare that to the JW's. You will find a world of difference. But it is true that the JW's share some things in common with many denominations.

Not hardly! I'm a independent fundamental Baptist. From what I've heard, we are the worst kind!

They were strangers to Peter, he had never met them! Good grief, I see we are going to have a huge communication problem here! In Hebrews 11, the hall of faith, these men confessed this world was not their home, their home is with God.

You are all over the place here, covering thousands of years in scripture time. What am I to do with this? Can you ask a specific question concerning any of this?

One at a time and I will do this all day for you to understand. But make your questions clear so I can clearly answer them! I Peter 5:13 "The church that is at Babylon, elected together with you, saluteth you; and so doth Marcus my son." Who is Peter talking to so we know who the "elect" are...

"Elect" is placed in context to scripture! Context is everything when interpreting scripture. The "elect" of the Church are all the born-again believers all over the world. As far as Israel is concerned, they are the "elect" chosen before the foundation of the world to bear God's Law and be...

It's very simple! If I'm alive here on earth when this prophecy takes place, I will have been raptured out of here before the Great Tribulation begins. Christ says to the Church, Rev. 3:10 " Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation...

Yes, you do need my help! I'm just the guy you've been looking for! Do you remember Christ saying, "I have come only for the lost sheep of Israel?" He meant that! Matt. 24 is prophecy given by Christ exclusively for Israel. The elect in Matt. 24:31 is Israel! He will gather what is left of...

You will have to restate this. I'm not guessing anything with a preterist.

And it's shameful for a Christian to use Christ as liar against another.

When you figure out (by reading the context) who Christ is talking to, then you will know who the "elect" are! Any guesses?

Yes, the preterists find a way don't they! Christ was speaking of a literal kingdom when He said "My kingdom is not of this WORLD." And He was speaking of a literal kingdom when He said "not NOW is My kingdom from hence." Any way you want to look at it, your spiritualizing won't work here, my...

And another thing @Waiting on him, what kind of Christian will even assume or even state that Christ is a possible liar to another?
