    Symbolism

    Some of your quot Did they occur previously? No. Did God have foreknowledge of all the event that will occur before they happened and that's because God dwells in the past, present and future at the same time. He is beyond time itself and He created the concept of time for man's benefit. Imo...

    The Relationship Between Israel and the Church

    Most prophecies aren't 1:1, many times they might be 4:1 when combined gives you a literal answer. ex. Ps. 22:15-18 are speaking of the crucifixion yet vss. 27-31 are speaking of the millennium. What is left unsaid in this passage is the resurrection. That isn't mentioned directly but there are...

    This is the context of how Dan. 9:24-27 should be considered!

    While on earth, Jesus said he didn't know when the end would be, only the Father knew. Perhaps that is/was still the case when He gave the Rev. to John.

    Symbolism

    No, you don't point out my error, you claim that yours is correct as if you had greater knowledge which is highly questionable. We both have our opinions and if you want to take a couple of topics and discuss them fine, however I am 100% correct that trying to fit symbolism everywhere is 100 %...

    Symbolism

    You just made my point, when one tries to symbolize everything, one loses sight of reality. The angel tells Daniel what the 70 "weeks" stand for and the angel is repeating what God told him to tell Daniel. History has confirmed this as it was 483 years (69 weeks) until the crucifixion, the 70th...

    The Relationship Between Israel and the Church

    If one rejects the unfulfilled prophecies of the OC, one is rejecting the words of Christ.

    The Relationship Between Israel and the Church

    When one doesn't understand these foundational basics, then one's eschatology is built upon a house of sand. The prince of the covenant is the same prince found in Dan. 11:22-23. Face the facts, vs. 27 is 'not" speaking of the new covenant.

    Symbolism

    Hmmm, let's start w/ Matt. 23:38-39 - "Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. 39 For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord." In vs. 38 Christ is prophesying about 70ad. In vs. 39, He is speaking of the national...

    Symbolism

    Thank you for the info, but in all honesty, I doubt if I will remember it, the next time I use it. Hey, I'll change it now.

    Symbolism

    The spiritual is just as real as the physical and I disagree that everything is symbolic and yes there is such a thing as over spiritualizing. The prophecies that have been fulfilled have been literally fulfilled whether plain words or symbolism were used. With that as the background there is no...

    Symbolism

    I know you think highly of yourself because you are doing the same thing you are accusing me of. You say you know more about these things then I do, pick a couple of topics and prove they are unbiblical. I tried to be open with you and you judged me for it. The accuracy of anyone's beliefs...

    This is the context of how Dan. 9:24-27 should be considered!

    If we are speaking of God's vengeance, there is a lot more to come, with the trumpet and vial judgments and Armageddon. There are a lot of unfulfilled prophecies in the OT still to come. Regarding the martyrs of the 5th seal, it is unknown if they have been adding to from the beginning of the...

    This is the context of how Dan. 9:24-27 should be considered!

    A thousand years is the only comparative time frame we are given. It is a description of the time variance but I suppose it could be longer or shorter but not by much. If Jesus and the angel are in heaven at the same time, then yes, they would both be on heaven time.

    The Relationship Between Israel and the Church

    I believe Lk. 21:22 is speaking of Dan. 9:26b,c. In my bible, the words 'the" and "things" are in italics, meaning they weren't part of the original text and were added in by the translators to make it read better and it's possible that the add-ons could change the context. The context still...

    Symbolism

    What, I'm not allowed to have personal opinions? The opinions weren't about scripture but about how people "interpret" scripture. This particular post was really pretty short. They are 'all" in accordance w/ biblical truth! I don't speak any differently than anyone else. When I am expressing an...

    The Relationship Between Israel and the Church

    No, they don't, we just see prophecy speaking of different destinies for Israel and the church once the church age is over, but the way of salvation will never change.

    Symbolism

    Yes, I did say that about certain topics, not "everything" I believe. I don't know everything but if it seems I have waivered it would be about different topics. In prophecy there are dozens of different topics to have opinions on, but there a small few that I have absolute certainty on.

    This is the context of how Dan. 9:24-27 should be considered!

    Your quote: "And no denying the witness and testimony of more than 1,700 years of the saints of the true Church of God." Because of Dan. 12:4 there most certainly is!

    Symbolism

    Your quote: "the Holy Spirit guides me", therefore I understand anything that I believe is true" I have never claimed that, nor should anyone else because no one knows the whole story, however, biblically we are taught by Dan. 12, that knowledge will increase in the latter days and that means we...

    Show me one that was without resorting to symbolism because that is the wrong context to build upon.
