Okay. The reason I asked was because I see people misinterpreting that verse a lot and I wasn't sure what you were saying in relation to that verse.

Why do you say that? How do you interpret Ezekiel 33:11? Do you think everything that God desires always happens? It doesn't. Matthew 23:37 “Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers...

Do you understand that 2 Peter 1:20 has nothing to do with people having their own private interpretations of prophecy in scripture, but rather has to do with the fact that Bible prophecy did not originate from the prophet's own mind but rather originates from God by way of the Holy Spirit? 2...

Right. You referenced Malachi 3:1 in your post. I showed you what Malachi 3:1 was prophesying, which was about John the Baptist preparing the way for Jesus. Jesus Himself said so in Matthew 11:10, as I showed. Yes, of course He is. I'm just correcting your understanding of Malachi 3:1. Of course.

Are you sure you understand 1 Timothy 2:4 and 2 Peter 3:9 in their proper context? Ezekiel 33:11 Say to them: ‘As I live,’ says the Lord God, ‘I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from his way and live. Turn, turn from your evil ways! For why should you die, O...

That started with the foundation of the world and has continued since then, but you would probably say all of their names were written in the book of life already before the foundation of the world. That's not what scripture teaches. Also, if that was true, it would not be possible for someone's...

LOL. HA HA HA. I never said we can just sin all we want. We're not on the same page here, so I have no interest in continuing this discussion.

I didn't ever say that you said I was wrong. I mean, you're obviously disagreeing with me about some things, which can imply that, but you have never specifically said that I'm wrong. I was responding to you thinking that I believe you're a liar and so on and that's not what I believe about you...

Why do you keep posting falsehood over and over when it's already been refuted? Malachi 3:1 refers to John the Baptist preparing the way for Jesus. Prophecy: Malachi 3:1 “Behold, I send My messenger, And he will prepare the way before Me. And the Lord, whom you seek, Will suddenly come to His...

LOL! Why would I do that when it's not what I believe? I believe you are mistaken in your eschatological beliefs, but I haven't seen you lie about anything. You seem to be pretty honest about what you believe. You are obviously a very sensitive person who gets easily offended and maybe you can't...

I believe what is taught in scripture and I'm backing up my view with scripture. You are not. You are trying to back up your claims with logic that you are not applying consistently throughout the Bible. Somehow, you think that what Paul wrote in Ephesians only applies to that time period, but...

If you can't back up your claims with scripture, then why are you here? This forum is a place where people discuss end times Bible doctrine (and sometimes other Bible doctrines) and debate is expected. It's also expected that you should be able to back up your claims with scripture instead of...

The church is simply a term that refers to those who belong to Christ. That includes you and me and all who belong to Christ. This comes back to what I was saying before. You know that the book of John was primarily addressed to believers who were alive at that time, right? Yet, you have no...

All of us here believe that we are getting understanding from the Holy Spirit, so saying that alone is not enough to explain how you are coming to your conclusions. If the Spirit is giving you your understanding, then you should be able to clearly explain the truth as the Spirit has shared it...

I disagree with a lot of his preterist views as well, and I don't hide my disdain for preterism itself, but he's a good example for us of how to have a respectful discussion. I appreciate that about him. Let's you and I try to do better as well. Deal? That's what I would prefer rather than the...

You seem to have implied it. It comes across that way to me when you say that Ephesians 5:22-32 only applies to the ones that Paul wrote to. How do you decide that to be the case, but then decide that other things he said apply more than to just them and still apply to all believers today? How...

I think this discussion needs to end soon because we just are not able to understand each other. Which has pretty much always been the case, so this is nothing new. The problem I see with your view is that your framework should not prioritize Matthew 24:4-34 over Matthew 24:35-25:56. But, it...

That's an odd way of thinking of the WHOLE earth. Even if the earth there referred to the known world of the Roman empire, you are arguing that the verse is referring to just parts of the earth rather than the WHOLE earth. It's not a strong argument. No, I was particularly wanting to know what...

The problem with this view is that Jesus was not considered to be sitting on the right hand of the Father until He ascended to heaven, so it seems to be something associated with Him being in heaven, not on the earth. This doesn't mean He's sitting on a literal throne in heaven, but it does mean...

So, you're saying you think the references to Jerusalem in verses 16-19 refer to the new Jerusalem. In that case, why do you think the references to Jerusalem in verses 1, 2 and 4 refer to earthly Jerusalem? Zechariah 14:16 Then the survivors from all the nations that have attacked Jerusalem...
