I should also mention the Seibenberg House Museum in Jerusalem. It really is worth reading about. This family started excavating straight down, and since the 1970's have reached the first-temple period level of King David's time and a burial vault from around 3,000 years ago. If I remember...

Revelation was written by John somewhere between late AD 59 and early AD 60, by all the internal evidence of datable events in Revelation itself. But the author of Revelation left this planet along with the rest of the bodily-resurrected saints in AD 70. Because that author of Revelation was...

By now I am used to ad hominem attacks such as this one, which do not at all address the evidence brought forth. It's an empty debate tactic.

We do have today the human remains of those who died before AD 70 still in the ground (like mummies, etc.) But if it can be proved that they died before AD 70, they have to be the bodies of the wicked dead who were left to "perish" in the grave. This was the "resurrection to damnation" or "the...

Of course a thousand years represents time. I do believe Revelation 20 is speaking of a literal thousand years duration. It ended with the "FIRST resurrection", which was of "Christ the FIRST-fruits" in AD 33. Time did not end then. Of course Satan's "short time" represented some amount of...

Here you go... As for your discussion with the other person concerning the James ossuary that somehow they thought proved James wasn't bodily resurrected - that ossuary is empty. Many, but not all of the ossuaries retrieved for study are found empty. Part of the reason for that could very...

No, the prophecy of the two witnesses lying dead and unburied in the streets of Jerusalem is not future. It happened during the Idumean invasion of Jerusalem in either AD 67 or 68, depending on your source. The names of those two men were Ananus ben Ananus and Joshua ben Gamaliel. Both men...

WPM, God never says that there will be an end to "time". Jesus never said He would "put a stop to time" at His return. And there are ages in eternity. Paul wrote about this from his perspective on the timeline. "That in the ages to come..." That is plural "ages" that Paul expected, that...

Of course. Hebrews 6:1-2 gave us six of those non-negotiable foundational pillars as some of the "milk" doctrines that our faith begins with: namely, "repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God, Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead...

You do err, not realizing that God is perfectly capable of addressing us in terms of timing that humanity has to deal with. All of Scripture's prophecies which had a time limit put upon them were fulfilled "in the fullness of time", just as God had predicted they would do. It is a vast mistake...

If I had lived back then, the truth would have been worth dying for. It still is. You still haven't answered my question: Why are you so irate that Christ promised His own first-century generation that He would return while some of them were still alive? The fulfillment of this Matthew...

In case this was addressed to me... Yes, Christ Jesus already bodily returned in AD 70, and was eye-witnessed at that bodily return to the Mount of Olives by "those that pierced Him" - the tribes of Israel who were besieged within the city of Jerusalem in AD 70. Yes, the so-called "locusts"...

Well, out of respect to the theme of this original post, I'll start a new one in the eschatology forum with the title "Archeological proofs of Christ's AD 70 bodily return". That work for you?

Everybody is a "heretic" to someone else. The over-use of this term being thrown around at random negates its meaning. Kind of reminds me of the Inquisition.

Yep. Absolutely irrefutable. More specifically, the internal evidence within Revelation itself pins down that composition date to a very narrow window of time between late AD 59 and early AD 60, just before the catastrophic AD 60 Laodicean earthquake which overwhelmed the city. John was...

Those who deny Christ's words in Matthew 16:27-28 are calling Christ a liar concerning His bodily return with the angels to give rewards to all according to their works, and while some of those people Christ was speaking to at that time were still alive to see it happen. Nobody alive today...

Christ's return in AD 70 does not need for its true physical, bodily "nature" to be changed to avoid conflict with the imminent time statements. There is no conflict. Christ bodily returned in AD 70, just as He promised to those of the first-century generation, to gather ONLY the...

Then Christ Himself would be "even MORE of a Full Preterist", if you are determined to slap a label on everything. Christ taught that He would return in the glory of His Father with the angels, to give rewards to everyone according to their works, and this would happen while some of those...

Yes, the Matt. 27:52-53 saints were about the 144,000 First-fruits. The 144,000 "First-fruits" in Rev. 7 & 14 were given that particular title along with "Christ the First-fruits" because they shared the very same "First resurrection" event in AD 33. On the very same day. That can only be the...

Full Preterism rightly recognizes the correct Scripture that teaches the timing of Christ's second coming return in AD 70. Unfortunately, they do not have the nature of Christ's return identified correctly - which was bodily, and visibly for those who had pierced Him. Also unfortunately, they...
