And you say I don't make sense. Slapping down an argument just because you put 'amillennial' in front of it, doesn't prove or disprove anything. You say you've studied for years? That you know more than I? Well...I keep giving you chances to prove it, but you like letting them slide. Makes you...

An abomination in the Temple was making it unclean. Doing something within it that was an offense to God. Sacrificing a pig there, for example, was an abomination, given it happened in the old covenant when God still demaned his people to keep to the cleanliness laws and to proper temple...

Parable? What parable? Matt 24, Luke 21 and the corresponding passages are NOT parables. Isaiah 54 is about the Covenantal faithfulness of God in the face of the 'barreness' of Israel, who failed to fulfill their purpose of a "light to the nations". Chapter 54 is speaking to God's fulfilling...

No? Okay...let me try and simplify it by asking you a question. You...and the 'teachers' above claim, for example, that signs such as increased earthquakes and diseases and false Christs tell us we are at "boiling point", right? But does the bible at any point give us any indication of what...

Certainly. I have no doubt there are many people who are too hesitant when young but change their minds as they get older. Again, a pretty individual thing, I suppose. I just hope whenever they decide to do it, they choose a tattoo artist worth his salt..."no regerts"..! Ha! I don't think I'll...

What...as in, something like Google? (Just as an example..)

I don't know about you, but when I read Acts 2:42-47, it sounds so good, doesn't it?! They must have been so new and excited in the faith, heady in the thought of what the future might bring! Sometime life will pull that wonder from us, that heartbeat of commonality that we all truly share...

May it be sooner, rather than later!

Oh...I see it well...but probably not in the way you would like me too. Tell me....if Christ came and offered himself as the perfect lamb of God for the sins of all people....how could it NOT be seen as an abomination for the Jews to continue to offer up the incense of burning meat to God? He...

Well, I...and most commentators...would disagree. I still find it endlessly amusing when I...an Amillennialist...end up arguing for the literal interpretation against people who call themself 'literalists'. Go figure.

And yet, so much good comes out of them too. How much disservice, I wonder, are you doing to the honest, eager, young men who come out of seminaries and go on to join or plant churches and teach good, solid doctrine from their pulpits? I am only one small person in one small part of the world I...

Once again you refuse to address the scriptures presented, only giving half-baked ideas. Because anyone giving the situation a moment's thought can clearly see the problems present in the whole "gauge/boiling point" argument. To start with...can we know that things will get worse towards the...

I think perhaps the real irony here is how I, someone who disagrees sharply with Dispensationalism, nevertheless will often point out HOW you could be making your case so much powerfully...with the use of scripture or your own time and effort. And in response you post other peoples work and...

Actually, Babylon was a nation. It was called Babylonia, and it was often under Ayssrian or Hittite control as the region warred, but the 'Nation' did exist. It had to, because the might of 'one city alone' could not have been mighty enough to capture Jerusalem, as we know they did in 589BC...

Here's the crux of the issue. You say you "see" a gap. But does the text actually give us one? Yes...we know there was a gap between Christ's "firstfruits" and his second coming. We know it because we live this side of his resurrection. But...consider the people alive at Christ's time. Based...

I think that's something we all can agree on!! And be thankful for!

Date setters? No...not precisely. Not in that they say "next week at 2pm". But it's the expectation that I have the problem with, and how they use it quite differently than Christ and the Apostles. Christ told us in many different ways to always be on watch...to live with one eye open, so to...

I wonder...If I started posting numerous videos of Amillennial preachers doing their thing, would you take the time to watch them all and then answer them intently...apart from doing your usual..."wrong!"?? (so convincing, by the way!) Either way, I don't really care...I was just pointing out...

I would see this as a clear reference to the resurrection, wouldn't you? Christ has just mentioned 'everlasting life'...that which we are promised in him when we 'believe' in him. While new birth is achieved at said belief, the receiving of the new body, the sinless spirit, is not given until...

"Doctrine of men". As opposed to the doctrine of God. And if it is not God's doctrine (ie, found in scripture), it is no better than the Pharisees...and we know what Jesus said about them. So...trying to dance around your terminology is not going to fly. You hold them in disdain. Which is odd...
