    Hidden in plain sight: Why I believe this about the Revelation

    No, you don't. But, I am not saying that the casting out of demons alone relates to his binding, so you are misrepresenting my view. Here is something I've said relating to the binding of Satan before. Read this so you get my full understanding of the binding of Satan. Satan being bound has...

    All who are not taken up to meet the Lord in the air when He comes will be left behind and killed.

    Wrong. Making sure that I interpret the parable in such a way that lines up with the rest of scripture is exegesis, not eisegesis. You drawing conclusions from the parable while ignoring that rewards are given at the same time as the punishments is eisegesis. I was talking about them being...

    All who are not taken up to meet the Lord in the air when He comes will be left behind and killed.

    The parable of the minas obviously refers to rewards being given out when the King returns, so why act as if the parable isn't about that at all? It's a parable. Parables are made up stories that reflect things in reality. It's not talking about anyone literally inheriting authority over...

    All who are not taken up to meet the Lord in the air when He comes will be left behind and killed.

    Not sure how that is a problem for Amils. Can you clarify? You have a unique communication style that I find to be hard to follow. Not blaming you for not being clear or anything. I'm just not able to follow your reasoning. Amils believe that "the rest of the dead" are all of the wicked...

    ANOTHER FACTOR THAT PROVES AMIL FALSE, PAUL WISHED FOR A RESURRECTION OF THE UNJUST ALSO

    What is the point of them being "judged adversely during Christ’s thousand year reign" if they just end up being destroyed, anyway? That's total nonsense.

    ANOTHER FACTOR THAT PROVES AMIL FALSE, PAUL WISHED FOR A RESURRECTION OF THE UNJUST ALSO

    LOL. This is a very weak argument. The judgment that awaits the resurrection of the unjust dead when Jesus comes again is being cast into "everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels" (Matthew 25:41, Rev 20:15). How do you go about explaining away Daniel 12:2? Do you try to make...

    The end of the world, as taught by Christ, separates the wicked from the just at the harvest, and it is coming for you.

    You are making zero effort to see my point. What Matthew 13:41 means is the same thing that Matthew 13:49 says in this similar parable: Matthew 13:47 “Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was let down into the lake and caught all kinds of fish. 48 When it was full, the fishermen...

    Catholics: What does it mean to pray to Mary?

    Did you stop reading there in verse 1? Do you not make any effort to see the context of scripture? John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. 15 John bare witness of him, and...

    The end of the world, as taught by Christ, separates the wicked from the just at the harvest, and it is coming for you.

    They were not. Look at this... Matthew 13:38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; Can you see here how Jesus contrasted the children of the kingdom (good seed/wheat) with the children of the wicked one (tares)...

    Catholics: What does it mean to pray to Mary?

    Jesus Himself did not put Mary on a pedestal like Catholics do. Not at all. I wonder if they have never read this: Matthew 12:46 While Jesus was still talking to the crowd, his mother and brothers stood outside, wanting to speak to him. 47 Someone told him, “Your mother and brothers are...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    Right. He said "ye" and "you" in relation to seeing an event that He expected the disciples and His audience (at least some of them) to see in their lifetimes. An event that would involve people being killed with swords (Luke 21:24).

    The Four Stages of Mankind's Redemption:

    He's quite sensitive, isn't he? He thinks only he should be allowed to make insulting comments.

    The end of the world, as taught by Christ, separates the wicked from the just at the harvest, and it is coming for you.

    That isn't what it says. The only way that anyone has ever been saved and entered the kingdom of God/heaven is by faith and they did not have faith. What are you talking about? How do you think someone was saved in old covenant times and how in new covenant times? What is your point here?

    Catholics: What does it mean to pray to Mary?

    It's blasphemous. Terrible. You're right that Mary would not approve. It would make her sad and probably angry as well.

    Catholics: What does it mean to pray to Mary?

    This forum is not a place to just copy and paste the contents of books in. Good grief. Just post a link to a site where people can read your book if they want. No one is going to read it here.

    Catholics: What does it mean to pray to Mary?

    @Grailhunter If you don't differentiate between the deity of Jesus and the humanity of Jesus, it just leads to confusion. You think verses that only speak of His humanity prove He is not God, but they do not because they are only referring to His humanity in those verses and not His deity.

    Catholics: What does it mean to pray to Mary?

    Need to look at scripture which says Jesus created all things, which you deny. John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made...

    The end of the world, as taught by Christ, separates the wicked from the just at the harvest, and it is coming for you.

    What do you mean by this? How do you think people entered into the kingdom during old covenant times? The tares were never in the kingdom. Jesus contrasted the children of the kingdom, represented by the wheat, with the children of the wicked one, represented by the tares.

    Catholics: What does it mean to pray to Mary?

    It is that simple, but you don't want to accept it, so you make it too complicated to accept.

    The end of the world, as taught by Christ, separates the wicked from the just at the harvest, and it is coming for you.

    Yeah. So? You think the tares only refer to the chief priests and Pharisees? Why do you take that so literally? Do you never consider whether or not your interpretation of one verse is contradicting any other verses? Do you believe the scribes and Pharisees had more influence over who enters...
