Agree. Look at rebuilder454's post where he indicates that the foolish virgins are saved Christians, but somehow not part of the bride of Christ. What? Such a concept is not taught in scripture anywhere. Not even close. And then he says Jesus turns them away to face an imaginary Antichrist...

If we could just talk about scripture without all the other nonsense then people can learn something from our discussions even if we disagree, whether they learn something from you or from me. So, it can be worthwhile from that standpoint. I'm willing to discuss without the personal nonsense if...

I'm glad you can recognize numbers. Congratulations. Even foolish ones? No. It's foolish to think so. The foolish virgins don't have enough oil. Only those with enough oil are true Christians. The wise virgins have the Holy Spirit and the foolish ones don't. That's why the foolish virgins...

What does this even mean? Are you unable to communicate clearly and coherently? It sure seems that way. Why try to debate when you have no communication skills whatsoever? That's a lie and you know it. I'm talking about you and the comments that you make with no explanation behind them. They...

I have yet to see any pretrib do this. They never quote a passage and break it down to show exactly what it is saying, in context. Never. But, that isn't surprising. They know they can't do that in a convincing way. They think just making claims and quoting scripture without exegeting it at all...

Have you ever seen the Left Behind movies? I have. They help you visualize just how nutty the pre-trib dispensationalist doctrine is. After the rapture, they show people's clothes all folded up nicely in a pile. LOL. Yeah, that's what will happen at the rapture. And it shows maybe a couple car...

Show me exactly where I said anything personal about you in my post? I merely made a couple points and asked you a question. What is wrong with that? Is this your way of saying you don't have an answer to my question? If you don't currently have an answer, that's fine. You can just say so and I...

Yes, they equate fictional novels with scripture and that explains a lot. But, their beliefs are just as fictional as those silly novels.

Do you expect me to just take your word for that? Show me. How can I trust anything you say after you say things like "Jesus was not cut off because of the Cross", whatever in the world that even means, and "The 69 weeks were over before Jesus was born" and other nonsense like that?

Explain to me why every account of an event has to contain all of the same details in order to be about the same event. Think about this. Matthew, Mark and Luke were either eyewitnesses or were told by eyewitnesses about what Jesus said. Would you really expect that they would all write the...

Great story. Makes for great fiction. And, according to you, people inexplicably stopped eating and drinking and marrying when he went on to the ark even though they wouldn't have thought him going on to the ark, in and of itself, would have meant anything since they didn't believe the flood...

Again, if you only knew how wrong you are. But, of course, you are wrong about a lot of things. For you to criticize him for supposedly not being able to draw proper conclusions is utterly hilarious. Your lack of self awareness is incredible.

That's Calvinist mumbo jumbo. Making light of the call to salvation by just calling it a "general call"? That makes no sense. It's a sincere and genuine gracious offer of salvation that God makes to all people. Isn't that what we would expect of a God who commands all people everywhere to repent...

Can you stop your blabbering and make a coherent argument for once? Tell us your understanding of Matthew 25:1-13. Go through it verse by verse so we can see how you interpret it. What is your understanding of the bride of Christ? Use scripture to support your answer. Making claims without...

Do you believe that Jesus's death is crucial to bringing about the fulfillment of any of the six things listed in Daniel 9:24? If so, do you include His death somewhere within the 70 weeks? Since it says He would be cut off after the 69th week (Daniel 9:26), then that would place His death...

It's absolutely unbelievable and stunning. The childishness of some of the posters here is just out of control. How can they be that immature when discussing scripture on a forum like this? They are completely reckless with scripture. They never use scripture to interpret itself. They make up...

None of this addresses man's responsibility which scripture speaks about repeatedly. Of course people have to "hear the word of the LORD" before they can be saved. That's what Paul indicated in Romans 10. Romans 10:14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall...

Agree. God is the One who initiates the salvation process. In my view, people are then made responsible to respond to His call in the way God commands and requires. Yes, He gave them the opportunity to be forgiven. He didn't supernaturally cause them to exercise faith in him, though. I don't...

LOL. If you only knew how wrong you are about this. Just as wrong as you are about end times scripture, which is really saying something.

Jesus was not talking about wars, famines, earthquakes and such that had anything to do with "God's displeasure with Jewish society". Jesus was talking about global things there, not things local to Jerusalem. Matthew 24:4 Jesus answered: “Watch out that no one deceives you. 5 For many will...
