Is anyone here denying that Christ comes to us spiritually by way of His Spirit? Not that I've seen. This thread is about refuting preterism. No one is denying that Christ comes to dwell in us when we are born again. Is anyone here doing that? It seems like you're making a strawman argument here.

Yes, they were destroyed by the flood waters. So, how exactly do you think "the Divine wrath of the Spirit of God which proceeds out of the mouth of Christ" will physically kill people? How does that work? Yes. To me, it's metaphorically talking about the destruction of unbelievers at Christ's...

I'm not interested in going into detail about what all of the symbolism means, but I'll just say that I believe it's all symbolism and none of it is literal. What I would like to know is do you believe that mass physical destruction will occur when Jesus returns? If so, what exactly do you think...

I agree. So, why did you say before that you believe the end of the age (at which point the age to come arrives) in Luke 20:34-36 referred to the end of the old covenant age when Jesus died and rose again? Now, you are saying the end of the age refers to the time when Christ comes again in the...

And I hoped you would actually answer my question about Matthew 13:40-43 and Matthew 13:47-50, but you instead just want to play games. When someone can't even answer simple questions, as you often cannot do, it's very telling. You can't even tell me when you believe the end of the age will...

Now, there's something we can agree on.

Why is that? You obviously have no understanding of symbolism. It's not required that symbols resemble what they are symbolizing. Look at this verse, for example... Revelation 1:20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven...

What do you mean by this? You think Christ's army of spiritual Israelites will be armed with literal swords?

LOL! Nothing proves Premil! As long as you insist on bringing doctrinal bias into every verse you read, you will think everything proves Premil. I hope one day you will actually read scripture objectively, but I'm not getting my hopes up. Hello? Is Jesus not your King now? Are you not in His...

How does anything you're saying here prove that Amil plus NOSAS contradicts Revelation 20:6? You are delusional. Nothing you said here or anywhere proves that.

Quoting the verses to me doesn't tell me how you interpret them. I asked "Do you think passages like Matthew 13:40-43 and Matthew 13:47-50 were already fulfilled long ago when Jesus rose from the dead?". So, is your answer "Yes" or "No"? When do you believe the "end of the world" or "end of the...

He then later clarified what he meant multiple times. Did you not see that? If you did, then why are you trying to insist that he meant something else? He believes it relates to the future, but believes it also relates to the past. So, what he meant is that he doesn't believe it only refers to...

Are you saying you believe that all Gentiles are grafted into the good olive tree? That is not what Paul said at all. Look at the verse you quoted. Paul said that the Gentiles that were grafted in "standest by faith". No Gentile that was grafted in was in unbelief. Yet, you are saying that...

I can confidently say that someone like him who denies the deity of Christ has less understanding than me and you who do not deny something that is so clearly taught in scripture. It's just a fact that he lacks discernment and isn't someone to be taken seriously. No need to go into all this...

Why did you say "Unless..."? I said that it's hard to reconcile it with the rest of scripture if you take it literally. When I said it can't be applied to the future, I only meant if it is taken literally. You obviously are not taking it literally, but instead as "symbolic representations of...

So, you believe there will be dead bodies everywhere when Jesus returns, but you just can't bring yourself to believe that they could be killed by fire because that would just be a case of God going too far in your mind despite what God did to Sodom and Gomorrah. So, what exactly do you think...

Nothing you have said would indicate that you got it the first time or any time since. I can't take you seriously. But, of course, I already knew that before today.

You clearly didn't even understand my comment even after I clarified it. I was definitely not complimenting you. Your reading comprehension skills are even worse than I thought.

What insincerity? I made light of you criticizing a type of people of which include you. That was sincere. I sincerely believe that what you said is something that can be said about yourself. When your many false interpretations of scripture are tested, they often prove to fall short. That...

Regardless of who did the actual destroying of the city and the temple, the Jews were responsible for the destruction of their own city and temple, so there is a sense in which they destroyed their own city and temple. Luke 19:41 And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it...
