Just show where he claimed that "the old covenant remained in force", if you can. Otherwise, just admit that you made a false accusation towards him.

I'm asking why Paul would talk about vengeance on unbelievers in Jerusalem to believers in Thessalonica. How would God's wrath against unbelievers in Jerusalem be a case of vengeance against Jews persecuting believers in Thessalonica? I would think that the unbelieving Jews in Thessalonica who...

NONSENSE! If God is not the God of the dead, but only of those who are alive in the body then that would mean He is not currently the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob! You are COMPLETELY misinterpreting what Jesus was saying there. He was showing that since physically dead believers are ALIVE now...

If you conclude that Luke 21:32 relates to 70 AD, then is that what you believe about Luke 21:25-31 as well?

We were talking about Luke 21:22. I did not say anything about the second coming of Jesus already being fulfilled. If you want to talk to your preterist straw man instead of talking to me, then that's your choice to waste your time doing that. You're not addressing my argument. LOL. So, it's...

Okay, thank you for answering the question. So, since you agree that all of the wicked are destroyed when Jesus returns, then who exactly do you believe will populate the earth for a thousand years at that point? You agree that believers will all be changed to put on bodily immortality when He...

How would God's wrath against Jews in Jerusalem be a punishment of the Jews who were persecuting Christians in Thessalonica? That makes no sense. The Lord Jesus Christ has not yet been revealed from heaven to take vengeance on ALL of His enemies in the world and that is what 2 Thessalonians...

Why would Jesus care about taking vengeance on people surrounding modern day Jerusalem? His enemies are those who oppose Him and His church around the world, not the Jews in Jerusalem.

Yes. The days of vengeance refer to vengeance against Jewish unbelievers in particular and does not refer to the day when Jesus will return in the future. Why do you not differentiate between what happened in 70 AD, a local event, and the future return of Christ which is a global event? Both...

Scripture describes it as God's wrath, but you don't know that because you are not interpreting scripture with scripture here. God used the Romans to punish Jewish unbelievers. This passage is about that same local event... Luke 19:41 Now as He drew near, He saw the city and wept over it, 42...

The context of 2 Thessalonians 1:8 is completely different than the context of Luke 21:22. In Luke 21:22, the context has to do with God's wrath and destruction happening in Jerusalem with Jesus warning believers in Judea to flee to the mountains before it happens. And that had absolutely...

What do you think was Jesus's point when He said in Luke 17:26-30 that the flood "destroyed them all" the day that Noah entered the ark and that the fire that came down on Sodom "destroyed them all" the day Lot went out of Sodom and followed that up by saying "Even so will it be in the day when...

Where?

You're not answering the questions you are being asked by Truth7t7 and by me. Are they too difficult? Do you believe that all of the wicked will be destroyed when Jesus returns? Yes or no?

You agreed with his claim that Jesus will destroy all of the wicked when He returns. But, you have repeatedly indicated that you believe some of the wicked will survive and populate the earth for a thousand years. What gives here? Why did you agree with him about that when that isn't what you...

I was pretty sure that was the case, but sometimes preterists who think that the old covenant ended in 70 AD will say things similar to what you said.

Yes. So? Yes. So? Just because you see the same phrase being used in one verse doesn't automatically make it directly related to another verse where the phrase is used. Revelation 12:12 is related to when the devil was cast out of heaven, which already happened long ago. That has nothing to do...

Right. An eternal inheritance of the earth. But, he is claiming that the earth will be annihilated and replaced by a completely separate, new earth. So, if he answered the question according to his beliefs, he would have to admit that he doesn't believe that the meek will inherit the earth for...

What do you base that on?

Matthew 5:5 Blessed are the meek, For they shall inherit the earth. For how long do you think the meek will inherit the earth? I have no reason to pay any attention to anything you say unless you answer my simple question. This is the last time I'm going to ask it.
