Take your dispensationalist blinders off and understand that the phrase "great tribulation" can be used in different contexts. In Revelation 7 the context is coming out of great tribulation in the form of persecution and other types of tribulation that believers go through. Other scripture that...

I think you are the one who needs to study what the word "signified" means. Yes, it means to make it known, but that doesn't mean something has to be made known literally. The word "signified" is obviously past tense of the word "signify". Here is one definition for the word "signify"...

I believe your understanding of that is flawed. How are you not getting that by now? I believe, as I've said several times now, that God expanded His promise not only to Gentile believers, but also beyond that promised land to include the entire new heavens and new earth. Instead of praising God...

Ha. Tell me how a literal city can possibly be "the bride, the Lamb's wife". Please explain that to me in detail. Ha, indeed.

Yes, really. Did I act as if I didn't mean what I said? No, it's referring to Daniel 9:26-27. Jesus said Jerusalem and the temple buildings would be destroyed. That's undeniable. So, that is the context of what He was referring to in the Olivet Discourse when He talked about the need for those...

Do you want to be taken seriously or not? I'm not getting the impression that you do. I'm obviously talking about YOU, not God. Don't slander me by acting as if my comments towards YOU are being made towards God. Understand? It's ironic that your username is "dad" because you act very childish...

That is meaningless, as Abraham discovered when he realized he was living in "a strange country". God's plan for all of His people in the end is to give them the eternal new heavens and new earth. No, heavenly describes eternal things, not temporal. Your carnal perspective keeps you from...

No, it's foolish to add the word "the" to the text when it isn't there in the original manuscript and it's foolish to think that a great multitude from all nations will be saved during a short time before Christ returns when both Jesus and Paul indicated that many will fall away from the faith...

LOL. Your comments like this mean nothing to me. You fail to discern when He was talking about events related to the local event in Jerusalem in 70 AD and when He was talking about events related to His future second coming. Did Paul not get the memo that the signs of the end all relate to...

Who said anything about anyone being condemned again? Not me. So, who are you talking to here? Jesus Himself clearly indicated that all people will be gathered before Him at the same time to be judged in Matthew 25:31-46. It's not a judgment to determine the eternal fates of everyone. That will...

Why do you think I should answer your question before you address anything I said in my post #141 which came before your question? Do you not understand how these discussions work? Address what I said in that post first and then I'll answer your question. That's how adults have discussions...

Are you a child? Did you not read what I said? Please be an adult and address my post instead of playing games. You can't expect me to answer your questions without addressing what I said in post #141 first. After you do that then get back to me again about whatever point you're trying to make...

Nonsense! You are not being honest here. Why are you not willing to honestly address anyone's arguments? Scripture teaches that God is not a respecter of persons. For Him to purposely save all the people of one nation but not any other nation would make Him out to be a respecter of persons. You...

LOL. You are a comedian. Peter specifically indicated that believers look for the new heavens and new earth in direct fulfillment of the promise of Christ's second coming. We who understand what Peter taught don't look for an imaginary earthly millennial kingdom in fulfillment of the promise of...

Just keeping ignoring passages like Hebrews 11:8-16 if you insist. You are obviously unteachable just like most people on this forum. Sad to witness. We all believe they must come true and all believe that His promises always come true, but don't all have the same understanding of how they come...

Where does this say anything about the angels with the vials? This refers to four angels. There are seven angels with vials, according to Revelation 16. If you're going to insist that the book of Revelation is just a book about the future then you will remain completely confused as to what it...

Please address my post instead of playing games. You can't expect me to answer your questions without addressing what I said in post #141 first. After you do that then get back to me again about whatever point you're trying to make here and just get to the point instead of asking questions.

Galatians 2:7-9 doesn't reference Matthew. Did you mean Peter? What is the point of this question? I'm not into playing games. What in the world are you talking about? Do you think Paul never said anything about unbelievers? Can you please address what I said in my post?

"Are become" is completely nonsensical and a bad translation. Every other English translation says "have become" or "has become" (depending on whether it says kingdom or kingdoms). The verse is either saying that the kingdom(s) of the world are becoming the kingdom(s) of God the Father and Son...

Matthew 25:31-46 makes it clear that it will be all of the saved, which are those who will inherit eternal life in the kingdom prepared for us from the foundation of the world (Matt 25:34,46) and all of the lost, which are those who will be cast into everlasting fire prepared for the devil and...
