    The "watch rapture view"

    Incorrect. God did not say this, nor did He indicate a seven-year period. You are privately interpreting the text as “seven years” to fit your own false doctrine. This teaching comes from the premillennialist movement and its invented “seven-year tribulation” idea — a human addition, not...

    The "watch rapture view"

    But do you understand chapter 8 and compare it with chapter 9? For example: Revelation 9:1-4 1 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. 2 And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out...

    The "watch rapture view"

    When you mention the 42 months in Revelation 13, the real question is: are we meant to understand that number literally, or symbolically? Revelation is apocalyptic literature, filled with signs and symbolic numbers — beasts, horns, lampstands, seals, and so on (Rev 1:1 says it was “signified,”...

    The sons of God

    (Continue from previous post) And when we look at the very context of Isaiah chapter 45, it becomes perfectly clear that this is what God is saying. "I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil:" Is God under any debt or obligation to man to give him light? Is He...

    The sons of God

    Good morning. How are you doing so far. I have been busy with other things. You brought up a verse that I think I should response to help you (and others, Lord willing) to understand. I will split my response into two posts due to limit of space. I realize that some have read this verse...

    Proper Bible Interpretation of 2 Peter 3:8-10

    Okay, you have been warned. You are officially in the dungeon of ignore list! Good bye! :-)

    Proper Bible Interpretation of 2 Peter 3:8-10

    Clearly, you are not slowing down long enough to read the text carefully. Go back and read Book of Daniel 9:24 — not once, but repeatedly — and actually answer the questions the verse itself raises: For whom was the transgression finished? For whom was an end of sins made? For whom was...

    Proper Bible Interpretation of 2 Peter 3:8-10

    Yawning. I see we’re still arguing with things I never said. You keep repeating that I “create spiritual allegories based on literal events,” yet you still haven’t quoted a single line where I invented an allegory out of thin air. My entire point has been that God Himself uses typology...

    Proper Bible Interpretation of 2 Peter 3:8-10

    LOL! Is that what you are worrying about? Poor you. So far, you’ve declared my “attitude” fake, accused me of deception, and quoted Epistle to Titus 1 as if simply pasting it settles the matter. What you have NOT done — even once — is demonstrate from Scripture where my interpretation is...

    Proper Bible Interpretation of 2 Peter 3:8-10

    LOL! Your response doesn’t actually engage my argument. What you did was redirecting the discussion to Titus 1 and then applies Paul’s rebuke of false teachers in Crete to you without showing how your hermeneutic fits that context. That’s not exegesis — that’s deflection. Again, you haven’t...

    Proper Bible Interpretation of 2 Peter 3:8-10

    Ahem... We don't spiritualize Scripture, God does. Anyone who reads Scripture seriously should know that. Nor do we turn concrete prophecies into metaphors. What we do is read God's metaphors and refuse to turn them into Jewish fables, visions of earthly reigns, or private interpretations. God...

    The "watch rapture view"

    This is the same recycled premillennial chart-driven speculation Douggg keeps pushing—again and again. It’s built on timelines and diagrams, not on sound biblical exegesis. Nothing could be further from the truth of Scripture. Dressing up assumptions in colorful charts does not make them biblical.

    Could Ezekiel 37, 38 and 39 all be post millennial?

    Did you write the text as if its yours or his? No, its God's Word, so you need to learn to include chapters and verses. Still not impressed!

    Could Ezekiel 37, 38 and 39 all be post millennial?

    You brought up the claim, not me, selah! If you assert something like “Christ’s army of spiritual Israelites, all armed with swords,” then it is entirely reasonable to ask you to support it with Scripture. That is not arrogance — that is accountability. We are commanded to prove all things (1...

    Could Ezekiel 37, 38 and 39 all be post millennial?

    Where does it say in Scripture? Chapter and verse please! How do they kill all "dead bodies"? What "dead bodies" do you find in Scripture?

    Could Ezekiel 37, 38 and 39 all be post millennial?

    True love—agapē—is defined by God, not by society, not by modern theologians, and not by cultural sentiment. Scripture tells us that love “rejoices in the truth” (1 Corinthians 13:6). It does not redefine truth in order to avoid offense. For example, if I preach what Scripture plainly says—that...
