Quickly, soon, near are all idioms in Greek indicating sequential phases. This you should have figured out by noting how much "time" has transpired from the time it was written. It does not mean it will happen quickly once it has started. The Coming of Christ is the next prophetic event and that...

The adverb "quickly" in Greek has many nuances. One of them deals with sequence. So, this is really Greek 102. The sequence that is happening quickly puts us now in the last days. Not quickly in time, but quickly in sequence. This is why you can't determine the meaning of a Greek word by looking...

NottheRock@ I am assuming you didn't read the dissertation. This article renders the Preterist argument null and void. We now have evidence that the book of Revelation was written in the 90s AD.

What is it about the Dispensationalism that you don't agree with?

I am guessing you are saying that this gathering together did not happen in 70 AD, we know that this has not happened and history has no record of it. So, it is still to this day prophecy. Good observation.

Sweeping generalizations are kind of hard to respond to. You offer no evidence to your dictatorial conclusions. I can only assume that you did not read the dissertation or had already made up your mind before you studied non-preterists scholars. So I do not waste any more of your time, I will...

There is a doctor's dissertation on the internet that demonstrates that the date of the writing of Revelation was around 95 AD. If you can handle a dissertation you can get your answer. I guarantee you he has put an end to preterism...

The problem with saying NT prophecies were fulfilled in the first century is the book of Revelation. Due to more discoveries of ancient Greek manuscripts, it is now known that Revelation was written after 90 AD. So, all the prophecies revealed in Rev are still future. That includes a large part...

Comments about 2 Pt 3.10 by J. Dwight Pentecost. Things to Come See if this helps you understand the issues of this verse: This passing of the present earth is anticipated in a number of passages (Matt. 24:35; Heb. 1:10-12; Rev. 20:11). It is held by some that this purging of the earth precedes...

Ok, Yes, the Rapture happens like a thief in the night (definitely not before the second coming, where there is death of millions of people). When you say Peace and safety you do not say that at the end of the Trib. There is nothing but death at the end. The AC is ruling the world and causing...

Sorry gb, I am not sure what you are asking. The Second Coming is when all of the the OT saints are resurrected, as well as all those believers/saints in the Trib that died. There will only be believers entering the Millennium, some in their natural bodies, and from these you will still have...

That is correct

Absolutely Not! The fallen away is the Rapture, and the man of sin is identified at the signing of the 7 year contract, which begins the Tribulation. The Bride of Christ is removed before the signing of the 7 year covenant.

I am assuming you did not read my entire last post. perhaps rereading you will see how I answered this very concern. Paul never wrote a word in English, that is, Paul never wrote these words: soon, last days, time is near, quickly, shortly, etc. Translating from the NT Greek documents, there is...

The idea of a any moment return of Christ is known as pre-trib. That's what you see in some of these passages. The 'end' is near is an idiom for the end could happen any moment during the Church Age. The Bride will miss the Tribulation since the Tribulation is part of the Jewish dispensation...

I can think of about 25 passages where the NT says we are to be taught the word by the leadership in a church. The OT anointing was reserved for the leaders, not the Jews in general. For example, the priests were anointed to teach the people God's word. In the NT, the apostles, the...

The problem with this explanation is that it takes passages from two different dispensations/ages and puts them together. Paul in 2 Thess 2 is written to the new elect people of God (i.e. the Church) after God had removed the Jews from their elect status as described in Rom 9-11. You can't have...

Using your spiritual/metaphorical method to interpret passages, I have no disagreement with your conclusions. What you wrote in this post is correct, but their could yet be another interpretation method. Some people interpret scripture allegorically, which would radically differ from your...

Are you referring to Heaven of the Millennium? In the Millennium, which Daniel said would be after Christ's Second Coming, people in their natural bodies will enter the Millennium, and there will be death in the Millennium. I interpret all Scripture literally. so our prophetic interpretive model...

GLOSSA is the Koine Greek word for language, the organ in the mouth, and DIALEKTOS is the word for Dialect or Language. So Luke further narrows it down to dialect in Acts 2. Finally, 1 Cor 14 says that "languages are not for believers, but for the unbelievers." It was designed to witness to...
