    Biblical proof that we the New Testament Church are true Israel today

    In a sense yes, the name change from Israel to Jacob did make him a new creature/creation through the One SEED, Christ. Not in the physical but spiritually, "As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated". (Ro 9) All Israel shall be saved certainly does not mean every...

    It is time to give Pretrib a decent burial

    This is very vague Trevor. Perhaps you can point out where I relied on MY opinion without biblical proof texts? Do you deny the passage (there are others) I gave that shows the mountain of the Lord's house, the holy city of Jerusalem shall come down from heaven, and that shall not be until...

    It is time to give Pretrib a decent burial

    Trevor you're not understanding because you think the prophet is writing of a literal, physical Kingdom on this earth that shall be "the mountain of the LORD'S house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it", when...

    Can any of you link or share a good argument against FULL preterism?

    The distance that separates our doctrinal points of view are not reconcilable! It's time to shake off the dust and move on! Matthew 10:14 (KJV) And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.

    Can any of you link or share a good argument against FULL preterism?

    I'm not assuming but basing my understanding on what I read FROM the Word of God! Not as Preterits who base their understanding on what they read INTO the Word of God. The way that Christ comes to man now is through His Spirit. That's why Christ says He is both near and coming quickly...

    The Twelve Tribes Sealed in Revelation 7 Happened in Ezekiel's Day

    I would say they were marked to be saved before Jesus was crucified. I believe when man is sealed with the Spirit of God, they both know of and have entered the spiritual Kingdom of God in heaven. Before Christ sent His Spirit to dwell permanently in believers, He was with the faithful of...

    Can any of you link or share a good argument against FULL preterism?

    That's another of your doctrine's assumptions! I don't believe the Scriptures says that what was at hand/near speaks about the second coming of the Lord. That which was near and even at hand is the gospel of the spiritual Kingdom of God that all mankind might know and enter when they hear...

    Can any of you link or share a good argument against FULL preterism?

    Here again you're assuming! That which was and is soon coming is the spiritual Kingdom of God in heaven as it is being built as the Church proclaims the gospel of the Kingdom of God unto all the nations of the earth. That is the Kingdom of God that Christ came to earth with.

    Can any of you link or share a good argument against FULL preterism?

    But you are making an assumption! Assuming the temple being measured is the Old Covenant temple in Jerusalem. Since the advent of Christ's cross and resurrection we find that not only is Christ the True Temple, we also who are found to be in Him through His Spirit are also. John 2:19-21...

    Can any of you link or share a good argument against FULL preterism?

    Again deflecting! You're the one arguing the prophesy will be literally fulfilled in the future. The burden is on you, for he who alleges must prove.

    The Twelve Tribes Sealed in Revelation 7 Happened in Ezekiel's Day

    The passage in Ro 11 does not say that Christ lifts the partial blindness. It simply says that when the fullness of the Gentiles come in so all Israel shall be saved. The blindness in Israel is only partial because there has always been an elect remnant from Israel (faithful) that shall be...

    The Twelve Tribes Sealed in Revelation 7 Happened in Ezekiel's Day

    This is reading into the text that which is not there. The passage makes no mention the hardened of Israel recognizing Jesus as their Messiah. How can all Isreal be of those hardened of Israel since "all Israel that shall be saved" is saved when "the fullness of the Gentiles be come in." That...

    The Twelve Tribes Sealed in Revelation 7 Happened in Ezekiel's Day

    Would not the tribes listed have still existed during the days of Christ's cross, resurrection, and ascension? Revelation 7:3 (KJV) Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. Revelation 14:1 (KJV) And I...

    Can any of you link or share a good argument against FULL preterism?

    I don't find that to be true! Your doctrine is dependent upon the early completion for the book. Otherwise, there would be no consideration for John having finished the Revelation before 70 AD.

    Can any of you link or share a good argument against FULL preterism?

    There is not consensus by Bible scholars to prove even Rev was complete before 70 AD. I agree with the opinion of the late dating for the completion of The Revelation. You argue the two witnesses and all surrounding them recorded by John in the Revelation is history, but there is no biblical...

    Rapture ... soon?

    Whosoever among all of humanity who believe in Christ through His Gospel proclaimed in the power of the Holy Spirit! "Ye MUST be born again"!

    Can any of you link or share a good argument against FULL preterism?

    But you're arguing the prophesy of the two witnesses is history. Do you now believe this prophesy and all surrounding it shall be literally/physically fulfilled in the future?

    Can any of you link or share a good argument against FULL preterism?

    I'm compelled to point out the many problems we find with this very imaginative interpretation. If this is history, why is there no record in Scripture of their corpses laying in the street because the people who witnessed this would not allow their bodies to be buried? Where do we read of...

    Can any of you link or share a good argument against FULL preterism?

    Will these two resurrected witnesses be immortal & incorruptible? Because Scripture indicates that NONE shall be bodily resurrected until and hour coming when the last trumpet sounds and time shall be no longer. Scripture also tells us that man dies once and after that the judgment. John...

    The lamp is indeed the WORD of God! The oil believers are all anointed with is the Holy Spirit of God. With which every true believer is chosen to be a witness for Christ, proclaiming unto all the earth the gospel of the Kingdom of God. That Kingdom is only made known and spiritually entered...
