Do you have any evidence where someone predicted the significance of the year 1948 prior to it occurring? For example, is there any written record of someone, let’s say in the 1800’s, who used the Bible to predict exactly what took place in 1948, or is it only after the fact that people are able...

Everyone uses world news to interpret scripture except for maybe some full preterist. Your Amil, right, how else can you know when Satan will be loosed? The Bible doesn’t give you a date, you need to look at secular worldly information and compare that to what the scriptures say in order to...

Well I say they were shortened in the first century. If they weren’t shortened at that time then no flesh would be saved now.

I don’t think the AOD took place in 70AD, so I would say none. No Yes Yes I think you’re missing my view of the days being shortened.

Josephus described various extraordinary phenomena in the sky, including a great light that shone around the altar and temple, which appeared to be bright as day for half an hour. He also mentioned sightings of chariots and armed soldiers in the sky, a "star resembling a sword" and a comet that...

Luke 17:24 For the Son of Man in his day will be like the lightning, which flashes and lights up the sky from one end to the other. The lightning is referring to the literal lightning as it is observed by humans standing on the earth. It can’t be referring to any other type of lightning that...

Ok, I’m not denying a future return of Christ, but simply pointing out that lightning is a local event just like the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah was a local event. Not every eye saw those events.

Right, His coming wasn’t secretive to those in Jerusalem in 70AD. It was like lightning or fire that came down from heaven and devoured them.

Lightning is literally a local event and not a global event, under perfect conditions theoretically a person could observe lightning from a maximum distance of approximately 273 miles (440 kilometers) away. Here’s the formula … D = (2RH + H2 – 2Rh – h2)1/2 D is the maximum distance that...

You are assuming that it will be an unmistakable event. If that’s the case then why would the Matthew 24:23 warning be made in the first place?

Matthew 24:23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. If you have Christ literally standing on the mount of olives (Zechariah 14:4) at a future time, then the elect will not believe it, except for those who are actually near the mount of olives and see...

I agree with you, I wouldn’t believe anyone who said Jesus is on the mount of olives either. Can you give me your view on Zechariah 14:4, when do you see it taking place? Zechariah 14:4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the...

Would you believe someone who said He is on the mount of olives?

Adam was not deceived. 1 Timothy 2:14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. After Eve ate the forbidden fruit in Genesis 3:6 she gave to her husband. There is a semicolon after Eve gives the fruit to Adam, before he eats the fruit. The semicolon...

Can you give me your view on 1 Corinthians 15:28? When do you see all things subdued unto Him? The last enemy is death and I would think it’s subdued when everyone gets resurrected. That then leads to God being all in all. What do you see “that God may be all in all” meaning? Could that mean...

Ok, I would say the second death that the unbelievers experience is not an enemy to us believers, and it’s eternal so it’s not going to be destroyed. Revelation 6:10 How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? Well, once someone has...

Ok, so back to 1 Corinthians 15:26, The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. I think I might have misunderstood you, I thought you were saying this verse is talking about the second death. This verse is talking about the first (physical) death, right?

Ok, thanks for your response. I can see why you’re putting Revelation 20:1-4 at a future point in time and I realize the Amill folks put verses 1-3 in the past and us currently being in the millennium. I don’t want to speak for you but I was thinking you probably put Satan being bound...

Ok, if I have your view correct you’re saying 2 Timothy 1:10 means the second death has already been destroyed for believers only. 1 Corinthians 15:26 means that after unbelievers die the second death then the second death is destroyed for them also. Do you see no one experiencing the second...

Some Amill folks would say Satan is currently bound metaphorically (not literally). Are you in agreement with them on this point?
