    This sounds like you're guessing! If the book of Revelation so clearly says these two will be two "real people" returned from the dead, please provide chapter and verse so we can all know who these risen prophets shall be!

    Prove what you allege! Name these two anointed prophets that will return from the dead!

    You loathe symbolism except when YOU need to make the candlesticks and olive trees SYMBOLIZE two men.

    I have no desire to go into detail for you regarding my understanding of Rev 11, I feel it would be like speaking to the wall. I will simply say, just as I understand two lampstands and two olive trees symbolically pertain to spiritual realities, so too the rest of the chapter can only be...

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

    Since I've already told you how I have come to understand dead bodies standing upon their feet, it would be far more useful to know how you interpret these questions. Because you prove that you believe the two candlesticks and two olive are symbolic for two human individuals that shall come at...

    You're deflecting, why? I understand the difficulty you face; you tried to prove from the Bible why you believe the two candlesticks and two olive trees are two men of flesh & blood, but your argument falls flat. He who alleges must prove!

    How does quoting Zechariah prove the two olive trees and two lampstands are literally two anointed men? Clearly, you understand that Revelation is written using symbolic language throughout, that's why you interpret the two olive trees and two lampstands as symbolically representing two men...

    Amil interpretation of 2 Peter 3:10-12 vs Genesis 9:15

    Look at more context to determine the time period for which the parable was spoken. Luke 19:8-10 (KJV) And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold...

    Amil interpretation of 2 Peter 3:10-12 vs Genesis 9:15

    At the time of Noah's flood, it was the world of the ungodly, that utterly perished, because only the ungodly were left alive on the earth after the ark was filled. The same shall be true when Christ comes again, and the fiery wrath of God that shall come down from heaven will utterly destroy...

    If you wish to be taken seriously, Christ calls the two witnesses olive trees and lampstands prophesying a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. What biblical proof texts can you provide to prove they are literally two human beings?

    Amil interpretation of 2 Peter 3:10-12 vs Genesis 9:15

    You argue the flood was local, but in doing so you ignore explicit verses that prove your assumption in err! God did not say the entire planet would perish along with Jerusalem in 70 AD.

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

    No! Full Preterism seeks to read its preconceived doctrine into the Word of God. You do NOT read the NT as it was meant, rather you use the NT to try to force fit your preconceived assumptions and opinions. It's far more beneficial that I show those reading these forums how FP twist and...

    Christ speaks of only ONE "great tribulation" that shall come upon the Church as faithful saints proclaim the gospel of the Kingdom of God to all the nations of the earth. The warning of "great tribulation" was given first and foremost to the disciples with Christ, and to every new disciple...

    Significant difference! The purpose for the Reformation was not to bring a whole new doctrine as Full Preterism does. The Reformation sought to return to the doctrines of the Bible and correct the doctrines of man. Full Preterits believe the Bible, especially the Revelation of Jesus Christ...

    Amil interpretation of 2 Peter 3:10-12 vs Genesis 9:15

    Whether humans covered the globe or not is irrelevant! The fact remains that every living breathing creature left upon the earth when the flood waters came utterly perished. Only those who were in the ark were spared! So it shall be when the fiery judgment of God comes down upon the earth...

    I quite familiar with the unbiblical doctrine of Full Preterits! It basically finds its beginnings through Jesuit writers in the 16th and 17the century. The doctrine became prominent as a counter-Reformation through the Jesuit Luis de Alcasar . In a nutshell Full Preterits view much...

    Amil interpretation of 2 Peter 3:10-12 vs Genesis 9:15

    How do you reconcile a localized flood in days of Noah with what is written? 2 Peter 3:4-7 (KJV) And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. For this they willingly are ignorant of...

    You hold to teachings from the Bible that we share the same understanding of, but what you have presented here is no more biblical than the doctrine of Full Preterits! I won't waste my time AGAIN showing you from the Word of God who/what the two witnesses represent.

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

    It's a waste of time trying to show how inconsistent and contradictory your doctrine is! Your doctrine does not come from the Word of God; it is forced into the Word of God. Because you approach the Bible with a preconceived opinion and lack the honesty to admit your doctrine turns the Word of...
