To be honest in the current political climate with that nation in the Middle East controlling our country, I would not be comfortable posting anything to do with Hitler. It’s easy too find on YouTube. Edit: They put people in jail nowadays for social media posts.

2 Corinthians 5:1 — "For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens." Look at how Paul ties the two together: the moment our earthly tabernacle is dissolved, we have the eternal house -...

I can only assume you haven’t read any Nazi Germany history. There is not a bit of difference between what’s going on right now in America and what went on in 1930’s Germany. In fact there are English translations of Hitler speeches on YouTube and he sounds just like Trump. Same talking points.

I can’t go against the Bible just to fit in.

Nobody enters heaven without a heavenly body, that's why the Old Testament saints went to Abraham's bosom rather than straight to heaven. They didn't yet have the body that heaven requires. But notice what Paul says in 2 Corinthians - "we have," not "we will have": "For we know that if our...

Flood is a way of expressing a great rushing army in that verse. A modern day version of using flood that way would be“a flood of illegal immigrants”.

In my opinion it doesn’t matter because all that matters is the “he” in verse 27 is Jesus.

No I don’t. The second coming only happens once and it happened at the resurrection.

We will stay in a quagmire until the fertilizer and oil and gas shortages destroy the western economies. You can’t get to “You’ll own nothing and be happy” until the old systems are torn down.

I assume that in your view, our spirit goes to heaven and there is no body for our spirit while in heaven until the future resurrection. Am I representing your understanding correctly?

Let me restate my position, because I muddied it earlier. I actually agree with you that the consummation is the physical destruction of the city and sanctuary in AD 70. What I was trying to say was I don't think that destruction falls inside the seventy weeks. I think the weeks ended at...

There have to be two princes here. Verse 26 says "the people of the prince that shall come" destroyed the city and the sanctuary. If that's the same prince as verse 25, then it's saying Jesus' people destroyed Jerusalem and the temple which can't be right. His people didn't do that. It was...

Where does the idea of a temporary spiritual body come from? When I look at Scripture, it seems to give two states: being "absent from the body" and "present with the Lord", I don't see a temporary body described in between — it looks more like when we're with Christ, we are in the resurrection...

I think you're coming from a futurist view, so I understand why you'd read Hebrews 9:28 as the second coming. I see it differently though. I take that verse as Christ appearing to the believer when it's their time to leave this world, coming for them at death. Whether or not you believe Christ...

Since John said Zechariah was fulfilled at the cross, what makes you think there will be another fulfillment in the future?

Most Christians will think Noahide laws are a good thing until they’re enforced.

I can’t go with that interpretation because John said Zechariah 12:10 was fulfilled at the cross.

Of course I do. But the question I asked you was - Do you agree that "They shall look on him whom they pierced." happened at the cross?

You're calling my view symbolic, but it's the exact opposite. I'm saying this all really happened. Jesus really left this world, really went into the grave, really beat death, and really came back in power and glory when He rose. That's history, not a symbol. I'm not spiritualizing anything, I'm...

My point wasn't that seven sevens can't symbolize years. My point was that everywhere else the word shabu'a refers to a literal seven-day week.
