I disagree with what you're saying here, but even with what you are describing, how could any mortals survive that? There is no indication of any unbelievers surviving that, right? Paul wrote about the same event here... 1 Thessalonians 5:2 For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of...

Good question. Based on what he says about our understanding of what will happen when Jesus returns, he must either think that God didn't literally destroy Sodom and Gomorrah with fire or He thinks God did so, but thinks it was not right for Him to do so since it involved the burning up of...

So, how about you tell us what it means instead then? I can't believe you would create a thread specifically about 2 Peter 3:10-12 without even telling us how you interpret it.

It's pure nonsense for anyone, especially any Christian, to deny that the flood was global. Some people allow biased secular scientists to tell them what happened instead of scripture. It's absolutely pathetic.

No, there are not. Not in scripture. Scripture is very clear that the flood was global. Do you get truth from scripture or from secular scientists who hate God and scripture?

So, Amils like me, in other words. Thanks for clarifying. Really appreciate it. So, how about you tell us how exactly you interpret 2 Peter 3:10-12 then? Why do you always try to dictate what Amils can or can't believe? Nowhere does it say that this future fiery event has to be exactly like...

I'm a bit confused about what you're saying, also. When it comes to Romans 9:6-8, the two Israels Paul referenced are the physical nation of Israel that is dependent only on one's DNA and spiritual Israel which is dependent only on one's spiritual status of being a child of God. There's only one...

Repeat it regularly? When have you ever done it? Is it too much trouble for you to do it one more time if you've done it before, epecially when I'm telling you that I don't know what scripture you are basing your view on? Is it too much trouble for you to actually quote the scripture and...

Okay, so you believe the sheep in Matthew 25:31-46 will not have mortal flesh and blood bodies, right? Do you understand the point I'm making in this thread? In Matthew 25:31-46 the sheep, who are called "the righteous" (Matt 25:46), inherit eternal life in the kingdom prepared for us from the...

But, there is no indication whatsoever in the text that the destruction of the earth occurs long after the arrival of the day of the Lord. How exactly are you coming up with that interpretation? Paul wrote about the same event of the day of the Lord coming as a thief in the night in 1...

That is concerning that there are so many gullible people out there. That is a serious problem. Scripture is clear that no one knows the day or hour and that He will come as a thief in the night, so it's utterly foolish for anyone to think that they know what day He is coming again. Why would...

You have your own brand of full preterism, which isn't any better than what typical full preterists believe because you deny the future blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ who will have the dead in Christ all resurrected from the dead at that time and...

No, I don't go by denominational teachings, but what in the world is your point here? Are you trying to defend the idea that God reveals truth to just one person about certain things? That is what I was arguing against. Do you agree that He doesn't do that or not?

There was no age that ended in 70 AD. Jesus talked about "this age" in contrast to the "age to come" in the sense of this age being temporal when people get married and they die with the age to come being the time when people will no longer get married or die (Luke 20:34-36). So, "this age"...

You clearly did not even bother looking at the context of the verse I used to show that the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Christ. He is also called the Spirit of God. Jesus is God. The Father, Son and Spirit are one and Jesus is God, so it's appropriate to say that the Holy Spirit is the Spirit...

There's no need to bring things up that were said 3 months ago. We had both moved on.

Right. So, He reigns now and has been reigning since His resurrection. I believe we should interpret Revelation 20 accordingly instead of acting as if He hasn't started reigning yet. Go back and read the original posts in this thread. How many times do I have to say that I base my doctrine on...

He did not specifically address any of the points I made in the original posts, but, of course, you expect me to address all of his points. That's typical of both you and him. You both want to have one way discussions where you control the narrative and don't have to specifically address any of...

Looks good to me! I knew that you would agree with what I'm saying because I know what you believe. I just thought I'd say something in case anyone might have misunderstood what you were saying.

Why did you not also quote 2 Peter 3:10-13 from my post which gives further information about that event? That passage makes it clear that the destruction that will occur when Jesus returns will be global. You refer to "the AC, false prophet, generals, soldiers etc" not escaping. Look at this...
