Are you reading what I'm saying or not? How many times do I have to tell you that I disagree with your opinion that it's talking about a physical mark? Nothing you're saying means anything to me since I don't see it as a physical mark or as talking about the literal buying or selling of material...

What a bunch of gibberish. Are you unable to speak plainly and exegete scripture to show why you are saying all of this nonsense? I don't believe you are. You just make a bunch of claims and think you don't have to do anything to back them up. You are not someone who anyone can take seriously...

Where? It's not ignorant to ask you to back up your claims with scripture. Where have you done that in this thread?

This is an unacceptable response and it borders on being blasphemous. Any time the temple of God is mentioned in scripture it is a reference to God's temple that He ordained and dwells in whether it was the physical temples of long ago or the spiritual temple (the church) that we're in now. The...

Just like I always do. Are you not reading anything I'm saying? You're asking me that question as if I agree with you that it's a physical mark. I do not agree with that.

What does that have to do with whether or not someone's name is written in the book of life? Do you understand that having the mark of the beast means someone is not saved and doesn't have their name written in the book of life? This is about spiritual realities, not physical.

Why do you assume the buying or selling has to refer to the buying or selling of material things? Is Jesus talking about buying physical gold and white garments here? Revelation 3:18 I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be...

What does being able to buy or sell those things have to do with whether or not someone's name is written in the book of life? It seems that people lose sight of what having the mark of the beast means. It's a mark that indicates that someone is lost/unsaved and doesn't have their name written...

How do you know you have the correct interpretation? How can any of us know when you don't do anything to show exactly how you interpret things? Is it asking too much for you to do that? I'm not interested in your claims if you can't back them up with scripture.

I don't agree. And we can agree to disagree. But, just remember that any future physical temple cannot be the temple of God. In scripture, the temple of God is always a temple that God ordains and dwells in. That includes the spiritual temple of God, which is the church (Ephesians 2:19-22).

I don't believe the buying and selling is talking about the buying and selling of merchandise. Scripture sometimes refers to buying and selling in a figurative sense. Here's a couple examples that I already showed in another post. Proverbs 23:23 Buy the truth, and do not sell it, Also wisdom...

If it's made clear that doing so means you are rejecting Jesus Christ then I would hope none of us would go along with it. But worshiping the beast and having the mark of the beast are things associated with those whose names are not written in the book of life. With unsaved people, in other...

Do you think the buying and selling of merchandise is the only type of buying and selling? Have you never considered that it could be talking about buying and selling in a different sense than that? Proverbs 23:23 Buy the truth, and do not sell it, Also wisdom and instruction and understanding...

Do you not need to keep praying for understanding yourself? Do you think the seal of God is a physical seal?

How exactly do you interpret 2 Peter 3:10-12? You, unlike most Premils, acknowledge that it relates to the second coming of Christ. So, explain why it should not be taken literally and explain exactly how you do interpret it and please explain how you interpret 1 Thessalonians 5:2-3 as well...

Please tell me exactly how you interpret the following passages and how you reconcile them with your beliefs. 2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the...

Matthew 25:31-46 is the same as the Great White Throne Judgment. The following verses are very clearly referring to the same thing. Matthew 25:41 “Then He will also say to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels...

Then you need to show that. Anyone can claim anything they want here, but if you want to be taken seriously, then you need to be able to back up your beliefs with scripture. So far, you have shown no ability to do that.

LOL. You did yourself no favors here with this utter nonsense if you do desire to be taken seriously. I'll just assume that you don't want to be taken seriously and that's why you post pure nonsense all the time.

You completely missed the point. I'm not saying 2 Timothy 3:16-17 has the same context as 2 Thessalonians. I'm showing that a reference to "the man of God" does not refer to an individual man, so you should consider that the reference to "the man of sin" does not have to refer to an individual...
