When Israel was brought back after the Babylonian captivity, who brought them back? It was God, right? And they were repentant and wanted to be back under God's rule, right? What evidence do you have that what happened in 1948 was God's doing? Most of them were not repentant and rejected Christ...

LOL. Are you so dishonest that you are not willing to honestly address what I said and not willing to honestly address what Revelation 1:5-6 says? Where did I say anything about John reigning over the nations? Nowhere. Address what the text actually says. It says that John and his fellow...

There is something seriously wrong with you. You are COMPLETELY misunderstanding me, but I don't know why. Maybe you just have horrible reading comprehension skills. Anyway, I am NOT saying that Jesus is not speaking truth in his parables. Hello? Wake up. Why would I do that? No, what I'm saying...

It is and I have explained it to you many times. Why do you act otherwise? Wrong. It's all meant to be taken literally. When did I say anything to suggest that I don't take verses 17 and 18 literally? You might as well just assume you're wrong from now on since you're wrong more often than...

What do you think that people are required to do (not talking about physical acts here, by the way) in their own volition (by their own choice that God does not make for them) in relation to salvation? Leave it to you to make something simple complicated. How can you not know what those simple...

There is no "right, but....". If you agree that I'm right, then there's no buts about it. Also, I did not say that God "saw who would choose Him and then chose them,", so why are you putting that in quotes as if I said that? That's rather dishonest of you. That is not what I believe. I agree...

Have you looked at Revelation 20:6 closely? Revelation 20:6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years. Compare what it says there with what...

If Amillennialism is what you say it is, then I'm sure you would have no problem giving me your interpretation of the following passages to show how they can be reconciled with Premillennialism. So, can you please do that? 1 Thessalonians 5:2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the...

You're not paying attention then. It gets demolished in every thread involving the Amil vs. Premil debate. The way Premils twist scripture to make it say what they want it to say gets exposed in all of those threads and their weak arguments against Amil get exposed as well.

Oh, so only those who disagree with you have to explain why they interpret it the way they do, but you somehow don't have to explain why you interpret it the way you do? Yeah, that's fair.

I agree with your first 2 sentences, but disagree with your last one. You say only the elect that Paul mentioned there will believe in Christ and inherit God's promises? No, that is not true. You need to read the verses which follow the ones you quoted there. Some of those who were blinded also...

Jesus was using hyperbole there (exaggerating - talking about something that is literally impossible) to illustrate that with man certain things are impossible, but not with God.

Only in the most technical sense, but in that sense it would be a true parable/story, unlike the made up stories in His other parables. Right. I never said otherwise. Who said He would? Who are you even talking to here? Can't be me since I never said otherwise from what you're saying. I...

As if the NT authors didn't often do that with OT scripture? I guess you have a problem with how the NT authors interpreted OT scripture as well? Do you accept that the promises made to Abraham and his seed were made to Christ (Galatians 3:16) and those who belong to Christ (Galatians 3:29) or...

I think you meant to say "Premillennialism". Wrong. Stop being naive. You're talking about Preterism, not Amillennialism. Amillennialism is not based on that event, it is based on the scriptures which teach that Christ began to reign after His resurrection (Matt 28:18), that His followers were...

Yes, it is, and you miss the context on a regular basis.

Define "significant portion"? Obviously, books like Daniel and Revelation contain a good amount of non-literal or figurative text, but I take most prophecy from other books literally, such as most of the prophecies that Jesus, Paul and Peter gave. You talk so much while saying so little. The...

I see that denial is still not just a river in Egypt. The answer is neither, so you have proved once again that you're not understanding what I'm saying, which requires you to first take your Calvinist glasses off. He predestined that anyone who believes in Christ would be conformed to His...

Right. It was obliterated there just like it has been here. It's hard to fathom someone thinking it was the other way around.

You think anyone cares about you saying others believe nonsense when you believe the nonsense that Jesus repeated some of the same things in Matthew 24:15-21 that He had already said in Luke 21:20-24 shortly before (or vice versa...I don't know which you think He said first)? According to...
