Christ most likely did not give the timing of the destruction because proclaiming the gospel of the Kingdom of God rested upon their shoulders. They must be about building the Kingdom of God. The message at that time was spread by word of mouth, which is why before departing this earth Christ...

What point EXACTLY are you trying to make? There was not a question about Jews converting through the blood of Christ continuing in these ceremonial laws respecting circumcision, distinctions of meats and days, festivals etc. It was the sacrificial laws requiring burnt offerings of animals...

Exactly! Christ warned HIS DISCIPLES of the impending doom but did not tell them when this would happen. They believed every word that Christ spoke to them. So, knowing the destruction would come, but not knowing when you think they hang around Jerusalem for 30-40 years so they could be there...

If you mean zealous for the law of Old Covenant Israel, then NO, I do not believe a Christian can be zealous of the Old law of Moses. This is why I don't agree with dispensationalism, nor do I agree with Zionism!

Yes They were not using the law to bring Jews to salvation; they used the law to teach them keeping the law without grace through faith in Jesus Christ would not save them. That's how the advent of Christ ushering in the New Covenant through His blood and resurrection put an END to the Old...

The vision Peter had was NOT about eating unclean animals! The animals in the dream symbolized people of all the nations of the world who were not born into Judaism. Just because Peter continued to be concerned about not eating unclean foods according to the law of Old, does not mean that...

The Spirit did teach Peter and all the disciples that's how Peter was able to understand through this vision that salvation through Christ was not only for Jews, but also for faithful Gentiles, like Cornelius. The mystery of salvation in Christ to Gentiles as well as to Jews had been hidden...

Man who has been born again possesses eternal life through the Spirit of Christ in us the moment we believe. Though man possesses eternal life inwardly the moment we believe, we are still clothed in mortal body destined to die. That's why all who are of faith must be bodily resurrected...

What difference does it make that Jews in unbelief continued under the law of Old and as promised, the wrath of God would make an end of these things? When Christ taught from the Mt of Olives He was not speaking to Jews in unbelief! He was speaking to His disciples about things His disciples...

Once the Holy Spirit came all who were truly born again knew the advent of Christ put an end to the Old Covenant and ushered in the New Covenant through Christ's blood. John 15:26-27 (KJV) But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth...

When Christ comes again and all of creation is made new, like it was at creation, why do you doubt the new heaven and new earth shall be exactly as it was in the beginning when God created all things? But then there will be no death because the curse will be removed, and there shall be no more...

Why must man be born again of the Spirit to both know and enter the Kingdom of God Earburner? Why does Christ say we must be born AGAIN? Since Christ is not speaking of physical re-birth, obviously to be born AGAIN of the HS, there must have been a time when the Holy Spirit was in man, and the...

Because since the New Covenant has come, and the Old is already an abomination unto God, Christ wanted them to stop looking to the Old as though the Old and New could somehow be mixed. When Christ came to earth with the spiritual Kingdom of God it was time to stop looking for some kind of...

Thank you for the gracious reply! What beautiful sentiments with truth - Happy New Year to you as well! And yes, I agree - "Even so, come, Lord Jesus, Come"

My apologies, what I meant to say in post 201 is that Christ did not answer them about the when/timing of the destruction, but He plainly declared the city and temple would be destroyed. I believe the only way the Olivet Discourse can be logically discerned that it makes sense is by...

Jesus doesn't predict a literal destruction of the temple and Jerusalem, He plainly declares it would come to pass! What you will not receive is how Jesus uses these physical realties to teach a spiritual truth. He was not focused on the Old that had already become an abomination unto God, He...

Okay, then none of the historical Christian writers have disproven the doctrine I espouse either. My doctrine is founded on the Scriptures and Holy Spirit within not on what others subscribe to.

The onus of proof? What accepted doctrine in historical Christianity disagrees who are not Preterits? What part of the doctrine I've given attempts to deny and reject truth? You're not able to receive what I've given because it disagrees with Preterism which you embrace.

The Church, the body of Christ is the heavenly Jerusalem, the bride of Christ, they are not separate entities. The body of Christ, on earth called Church spiritually is the visible representation of the Kingdom of God in heaven, and the bride of Christ is the unseen spiritual heavenly Jerusalem...

However, neither the Word of God, nor any who are not Preterits biblically prove the doctrine presented in not truth!
