Mmm. And, please don't take any of these questions or doubt as automatic dismissals on my part. They are, and need to be, natural questions anyone should ask about such things. While I can agree that Papal Rome has done many wrongs in it's time, I don't know that we can historically fit both...

It is true many are here only to push their own agendas. And even those of us willing to converse still hold to doctrines of choice for very good reasons, do we not? However, I apologise if I've made you feel like I've never taken your thoughts seriously. I attempt to consider most ideas if I...

Is he? I'm not exactly sure what I'm expected to do with that information, as I wasn't aware I was comparing my beliefs to his.

Blind guides...or mistaken people? Should we, as Christians step up more? Should we be more active in politics? Although I shudder to think... But yes...I suppose when talking about Pollies who merrily lead people on a track of false promises....probably you are right.

It makes for some interesting watching. Even disagreeing, as I do, it would be foolish of me not to know the alternatives, and to watch, I believe. So I do...

:D I keep saying that there's more we agree about then they'd think...but they don't listen to me!! I wonder why that could be? :p But yeah...I reckon there will be a final AC. A final world system of sorts...and there's always a dude at the top, isn't there? I actually believe in a future for...

Okay...first...I usually find it problematic when attempting to either confirm or dismiss something purely based on the notion of "replacement theology" simply because I've found that the phrase is often misrepresented by those using it as a strawman argument. I'm happy to define what it is I...

Except, shouldn't we, as people wanting to dig into the Word, consider WHY these three passages seem connected by these themes? You suggest that timing alone separates them. But doesn't Matt 12 imply that Rev 20 and Satan's 'binding' is in process now? How does that factor into timing...

So they believe. And I think too often they get away with it. It's a scary future. And...I must hand it to you Dispensationalists....in terms of the social/political/economic front, things seem to be lining up. Not that those things in any way oppose what Amillennialists teach...!

To me it makes perfect sense! But, that's how it always goes, yes? We always make sense to ourselves? Well, continue to knock youself out if you like doing it...I doubt my personal opinion on your practices is going to make you loose any sleep. :p

:D Oh, CoreIssue and I have been disagreeing for ages! It's no secret, and I'm in no way attempting to pout on this issue just to get an extra dig in on him. Honestly, I don't see the need! I'm quite open about how our 'relationship' has gone, and anyone reading back is clear to see it too I...

I think when it comes to you and me, I'm just going to say; you believe what you think the bible says. And I'm going to believe what I think the bible says.

Bible based, yes. You want to discuss historical texts, which can be biased. I'm not even opposed to that, I just want to ask caution when assigning weight to texts that are NOT scripture. I'm not exactly sure how that can get me into trouble for being "unreasonable". Yes, they knew, but the...

No...I don't necessarily think the OT Saints were 'born again'. I think that is resevered for those who are 'born of the Spirit', which we see uniquely in the NT after Pentecost. But, we do see that their faith and trust was 'credited to them as righteousness'. Which means that they were not...

Hmm. I must say I am a bit surprised. I wonder if the vote is just based on their own personal preference...as in "I'd never get a tattoo at any age"....or it was them saying "It's never okay to get a tattoo at any age". I would have thought more people would have recognized, regardless of...

But do they really? Is it just me, or are the politicians getting either lazy, or stupid? It just seems to me that they don't even try very hard any more. Outright lies that aren't even hard to see through. Because so many issues are based on 'feelings' now, rather than right or wrong or...

I think we see the Church and Israel being depicted separately in scripture as well, but only so far as Paul is making his points about 'spiritual Israel' (the church) and the Israel being broken off the Olive tree (For not all who are descended from Israel belong to Israel, and not all are...

Yeah...I think they have to have it on their resume's before they can even apply for the position...."can build strawmen"....

Exactly. I think we've had a march of them across history. But clearly we can expect one at the end...'the' Antichrist. The reference in 2 Thess 2 to Christ 'killing him with the breath of his mouth' takes us directly to Isaiah 11:4 and then Rev 19:15....we can expect this lawless one to be here...

Check this boards 'no spam' rules; I would say that starting numerous threads with NO comments or discussion, just ten or so vids, wobbles periously close to spam. And as I said, I don't have a gripe that it's because he's posting Dispensational content. I'd have a problem if an Amillennialist...
