Only Lk. 21:21-24 was specifically about 70ad. There are over 200,000 christians in Israel today and they still have sabbath laws that could affect one's efforts to get out town. He was speaking to the 3-4 disciples as founding fathers of the church. Prophecy is hardly ever for the generation...

Not so, but in many cases of OT prophecy we do know what the fulfillment will look like and often that is how we will know it has been fulfilled or is being fulfilled. The symbolisms used in Rev. are explained. Everything else should be taken literally and because of that, we know beyond a...

Not so, in many cases w

Some things were happening, yes and Some things were happening, yes and that is why many were concerned in 2 Thess. 2:2. However, Paul knew there were still signs to be fulfilled and he gave some in vss. 3-12 which still hasn't happened. Every generation should have lived as if Christ's return...

Do you mean that God exhausted his knowledge of every little event in the NT? Not even close. Just because the NT doesn't mention something doesn't mean it's untrue. God already told us what would happened in the OT. The OT is just as much God's word as the NT is. If all the prophecies about...

God, but he also determines what is to come immediately after and by what he told us through other prophecies is that none of it has started yet.

You are presuming it's about Christ, but if one went to the last person mentioned it would be the prince to come, "after" the 69th week, it doesn't say Christ is cut off then 70ad begins, because it doesn't but your rigidity would demand that it would. As I showed you before, Dan. 11:22-23...

It's saying what I said, at the end of the 69th week Messiah was "cut off". What happened to May? The only thing that vs. 26b,c is about, is 70ad which also would be at least 30 yrs "after" the 70th week, if it came immediately after the 69th. If one can have a gap of 30 yrs, then God can expand...

Sorry, but 70 ad fulfilled none of them.

Does your bible leave out the last two words, "concerning me" in vs. 44? It makes a world of difference. You asked about the millennium in the NT, but the disciples didn't have the NT to read but they were well versed in the in the prophecies of "the day" or "on that day", etc. and the multitude...

Rev. was written in 95-96 ad a quarter of a century after 70 ad. If I had the time, I could spend at least an hour listing the multitude of events that have never been fulfilled. Actually, 70ad only fulfilled three prophecies, Dan. 9:26, Matt.23:39 and Lk. 21:20-24. When speaking of God's...

Did you understand what they meant the first time you read them? There are two kinds of symbolism and that would be like what Christ said at the last supper about the bread and the wine being symbolic for his body and blood. The bad kind takes that to the extreme where they actually believe, as...

Both phrases say the same thing because Eden was created eternal, thousands of years could between creation and the fall. Just because one can have day and night doesn't mean you're keeping count. That would be like a person today counting the seconds, throughout their life, it would be meaningless.

Yes, they are but when you're immortal does time really matter? The bible only gives us about ten percent of the Cliff Notes version about creation and there is room in Genesis to believe Adam and Eve lived way longer than 'yec's believe.

You can't really say that 930 days was from creation. The garden and Adam and Eve were all eternal until the fall, God simply created a place where light and darkness both happen. Heaven doesn't have night. When you've been in heaven for a really long time do you think you'll be celebrating...

God created man and the bible was written for man in a way that man could understand it. If one has to create symbolism to try and find truth, they are going down the wrong path.

Regarding this statement, "Jesus says the scriptures foretold of his death and raising from the dead in 3 days." I checked both Matt. 16 and Mark 8 and Christ does "not" say "the scriptures foretold" Did I miss one? There aren't any scriptures in the NT that describes what the millennial era...

Matt. 24:34 is dependent on vs. 33. "...the generation that will see these things fulfilled, that particular generation did not. Actually, an angel told John "not to seal up the prophecy" but Christ did say "I will come quickly", but there are lot of things we'll never find out until we get to...

In Acts 1:9 the bible says "that a cloud rec'd him out of their sight". I don't find that hard to believe as he was taken "up". Acts 1:11 the angels say "He will return in like manner" which would be w/ the clouds. In Matt.24:30 it says "He is coming in the clouds of heaven". The word "heaven"...

I assume you know what I'm talking about so give me a biblical example of how a literal prophecy was symbolically fulfilled or of a symbolic prophecy that was symbolically fulfilled w/o making something up and then declaring it a fulfillment. To me, when symbolism is used, it's closer to a...
