    ALL TIMELINES NEED TO BE REVISED

    Shalom, Trekson. Absolutely! Right on, bro'!

    The First Resurrection - Already Happened

    Shalom, Vincent. You are making a serious mistake in thinking that subjugation means that the subjugator is King! There's more to being a king than just subjugation. Therefore, the "many verses that tell us Christ’s reign has begun" do nothing of the sort! You have ASSUMED that Christ's reign...

    Retrobyter Cannot Prove Partial Preterism Is Correct.

    Shalom, teleiosis. You, sir, see only what you want to see and hear only what you want to hear! I'M NOT USING a "17th century, Shakespearean word definition!" The copyright date of the Webster's NewWorld Hebrew Dictionary I have is 1992! The grammar book I use is somewhat older, The First...

    The "HE" of Daniel 9:27

    Shalom, Bob. I hope you had a good Christmas. I celebrate both Chanukkah and Christmas and Sukkot. I personally believe (although proving it would be difficult) that Chanukkah and Christmas coincided the year before Yeshua` was born. Furthermore, Christmas/Chanukkah was not the birth of Yeshua`...

    Retrobyter Cannot Prove Partial Preterism Is Correct.

    Shalom, teleiosis. This "debate" has come to an impasse. You're stuck on this "military might for a limited time" kick, and there's really nothing left for me to say. As I've already said, a broken record! Review what I've already said, or ignore it; makes no difference to me. But, I'm not...

    The "HE" of Daniel 9:27

    Shalom, Bob. Well, I've gone through the page, even printed it. (It's actually 42 pages in length printed!) He does present a rather scholarly view and I can't fault him at all on his Seven Clocks given by God. I believe that he rightly counts the years and Sevens and Yowveeliym (Jubilees)...

    Retrobyter Cannot Prove Partial Preterism Is Correct.

    Shalom, teleiosis. It IS a covenant! God's WORD says it's a covenant! Are you meshuggah (crazy)?! Are you stubborn?! And why would Yeshua` lift up his arm in "military might or strength" against HIS OWN PEOPLE?! Look, Yeshua` didn't have to do ANYTHING for a "seven-year limited time" to...

    Retrobyter Cannot Prove Partial Preterism Is Correct.

    Shalom, teleiosis. Sorry right back at ya! Yes, there are promises within this prophecy; however, that doesn't negate that it is indeed a COVENANT! That was part of the reason for quoting Psalm 89! David understood it to be a COVENANT! (Psalm 89:3, 28, and 34.) Indeed, the word "lovingkindness"...

    Retrobyter Cannot Prove Partial Preterism Is Correct.

    Shalom, teleiosis. Sorry about that. Wow. That's bad. The editor is not interpreting the code; it's just spitting the code back to the screen! I was trying to use the text that was auto-saved to recover what I had typed so far after crashing and recovering, and that's what came back. I didn't...

    Retrobyter Cannot Prove Partial Preterism Is Correct.

    Shalom, teleiosis. You're RIGHT! The "one Seven" or "seven years" is not HIS doing! It's just a statement of fact that goes along with what happened and will happen. He IS and WILL BE King of the Jews without being King of all Isra'el for those seven years! The first 3 1/2 years didn't go so...

    The "HE" of Daniel 9:27

    Shalom, Bob. Yes, I'm here. I'll do what I can as soon as I can. Thanks for the link; I'll check it out.

    the mayan calendar and the stairs of the pyramids

    Shalom and a belated Happy Chanukkah to you (as well as a Merry Christmas), as well! LOL! Up to you! You can even keep a Bill Murray with you, if you wish! (Do you? That'd be weird.)

    Retrobyter Cannot Prove Partial Preterism Is Correct.

    Shalom, teleiosis. (And I really mean "peace" to you, bro'.) Yeah, "ad hominem." Sorry, can't help it. You were getting under my skin! But, it's okay for YOU to get short with others but not for me to get exasperated with you, right? And don't think I didn't notice how quickly you SNAPPED at my...

    How does God know everything that is going to happen in the future?

    Shalom, Pelaides. No, that's not what God was doing in His confrontation with Qayin (Cain). He was letting Qayin admit to what he had done. Qayin failed to admit or repent, and God forced him see the gravity of the situation, making him see the far-reaching consequences of His actions. He may...

    Two In The Field One Is Taken One Is Left

    Shalom, kaoticprofit. Actually, I agree with you that the gathering occurs after the tribulation. Yeshua`s account about the sheep and goats is about who will populate the Kingdom. All of them will populate the earth during those first 1,000 years; however, not all of them will share in the...

    Retrobyter Cannot Prove Partial Preterism Is Correct.

    Shalom, teleiosis. It IS "gabar"! Remember: vowel pointing is NOT part of the Hebrew alphabet! In any transliteration of the Hebrew into English, all you need to look at are the CONSONANTS! Besides, the verse uses the word "higbiyr," NOT "gabar!" "Higbiyr" is part of the "gabar"...

    Two In The Field One Is Taken One Is Left

    Shalom, kaoticprofit. Well, are you forgetting that the original Messianic congregation (that most call a "church") consisted entirely of Messianic Jews? Also, you should consider the fact that when Yeshua` was talking to His disciples, He was NOT talking to the "church"; He was talking to His...

    Retrobyter Cannot Prove Partial Preterism Is Correct.

    Shalom, teleiosis. Nah. I just accept the understanding that anyone who actually speaks Hebrew has for the word "higbir." Webster's New World Hebrew Dictionary (which uses a different transliteration scheme) says this:

    Two In The Field One Is Taken One Is Left

    Shalom, Trekson. Well, thankfully, the Messiah can do a lot more than we can. He doesn't have to just "pray." Come to think of it, we can do a little more than just "pray," too! We can do our best to introduce our children to the Messiah throughout the time they are under our care! See, again...
