    Not ALL the physically dead are raised at the same time, the dead in Christ rise FIRST.

    No one gets a fair trial then, right? Even in the real world most are given the opportunity for a fair trial and that it usually involves a period of time more than a mere 24 hour day. And that's just one person being tried. But you would have us believe that Christ judges and sentences every...

    Not ALL the physically dead are raised at the same time, the dead in Christ rise FIRST.

    Can you explain how the following is making sense of the text? 4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his...

    Not ALL the physically dead are raised at the same time, the dead in Christ rise FIRST.

    John 12:48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day. Assuming Amil is the correct position, the last day meant here would have to be the same day Christ returns. The logic would then be...

    Not ALL the physically dead are raised at the same time, the dead in Christ rise FIRST.

    Then if we toss NOSAS into the mix, what then? One can be blessed and holy one minute, have part in the first resurrection one minute where death has no power over them, then the next minute they are no longer blessed and holy somehow, the next minute they no longer have part in the first...

    Not ALL the physically dead are raised at the same time, the dead in Christ rise FIRST.

    Roger, IMO you are not dealing with the point I was raising. My point had to do with this---and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth--and how the past 2000 years are describing this. For example. In the NT, where execute and judgment are used in the same sentence, it is found in the...

    POSTRIB RAPTURE. A BIBLE ONLY VIEW

    Pretribbers for sure cant because what they argue contradicts numerous passages. Not to mention, since no one can put on bodily immortality until at the last trump, and that the rapture involves the snatching up of people still bodily alive, how then can Pretrib reasonably explain how someone...

    Not ALL the physically dead are raised at the same time, the dead in Christ rise FIRST.

    Jeremiah 23:5 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and justice in the earth. Explain how this part was fulfilled when Christ walked the earth 2000 years ago---a King shall reign...

    Is the first resurrection physical or spiritual?

    I'm not entirely certain, but this indeed may be the case. We have to assume a lot of nonsense otherwise, and we have to speculate about some nonsense on top of that. For example. The account says, their bodies, not their spirits or souls, is what came out of the graves. What bodies? They...

    Daniel Chapter 8 - the 2300 evenings and mornings prophecy

    ------------------------------ 605 B.C.-171 B.C. 62 weeks or 434 years 587 B.C.-538 B.C. 7 weeks or 49 years 170/1 B.C.-164/3 B.C. 70th week or 7 years -------------------------------- Let's think about this for a minute. Starting from 605 BC you have it involving 434 years of the 490 years...

    Daniel Chapter 8 - the 2300 evenings and mornings prophecy

    I didn't say you weren't a Christian. I said anyone that claims that label should not be interpreting the 70 weeks in the same manner unbelieving Jews might. It doesn't look good. This is basically what we have here. Let's call one side A) the other side B). Side A) includes Marty, plus...

    Daniel Chapter 8 - the 2300 evenings and mornings prophecy

    What I don't get is how you think you have figured out the millennium properly, and where all that is supposed to fit, when you can't even remotely figure out these 70 weeks properly and where all that is supposed to fit. And so what if there are other professed Christians that agree with your...

    Daniel Chapter 8 - the 2300 evenings and mornings prophecy

    I don't know if you are being serious or not, but math was my favorite subject, though. I enjoyed the challenge. I don't recall getting A+s, more like A-s through B-s, somewhere in that range. As to the OP, the following is something I have noted but I have yet to make perfect sense of it all...

    Daniel Chapter 8 - the 2300 evenings and mornings prophecy

    The consensus seems to be that Jerusalem and the first temple were destroyed in 587-586 BC. But even if that's not correct and it's 20 years earlier instead, even that doesn't help your interpretation one way or the other. Daniel 9:25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth...

    Not ALL the physically dead are raised at the same time, the dead in Christ rise FIRST.

    1 Peter 1:18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; Have you used this verse as an argument? The key phrase being 'your fathers'. In the OT and in the NT when that...

    Is the first resurrection physical or spiritual?

    Wouldn't it be something if the events pertaining to the 7th trumpet involve far more than we realize? IOW, the final days of this age, followed by the millennium, followed by satan's little season, followed by the great white throne judgment, are all wrapped up in the days of the 7th trumpet...

    Are the trumpets and vials running in parallel like some insist?

    There you go then. Since that obviously is not an example of good logic, how is it any different if one is insisting that the trumpets and vials parallel? Seal 6 is when God's wrath begins, is it not? And that a number of us, including you, agree the 6th seal involves the 7th trumpet, right...

    Are the trumpets and vials running in parallel like some insist?

    It's sovereigngrace, or something along those lines in the event I did not get that entirely correct. I'm going by memory here.

    Are the trumpets and vials running in parallel like some insist?

    Douggg, I have been knowing both of them since 2009 maybe even earlier. Both of them were posting on the same board I was at the time. I was also aware of some other boards at the time where both of them were posting at, except I was not posting at those boards. I was mainly reading what was...

    Are the trumpets and vials running in parallel like some insist?

    Look what your argument implies. If the beginning of the 42 month reign of the beast doesn't even begin until trumpet 6, for example, this means they get a free pass on vial 1. IOW, vial 1 is never poured out on anyone worshiping the beast during it's 42 month reign because it has already been...
