LOL. What do you think you are accomplishing by posting nonsense like this?

Yep. My belief is that the approach we should take is to establish the foundation of our doctrine on clear, straightforward scripture. And only after doing that should we try to interpret the more difficult scriptures contained in prophetic books that undeniably contain a lot of symbolism. Not...

You think the ones "left behind" are left alive after a pre-trib rapture. Jesus very clearly indicated otherwise. Luke 17:33 Whoever tries to keep their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life will preserve it. 34 I tell you, on that night two people will be in one bed; one will be...

Nowhere exactly. And nowhere inexactly, either. :)

How many Olivet Discourses are there? One or two? One, right? So, what we can discern from reading all 3 of the Olivet Discourse accounts (Matthew 24-25, Mark 13, Luke 21) is that Jesus was asked 2 or 3 questions (depending on whether you consider there to be separate questions about His coming...

It can be important, but, clearly, there are exceptions to these rules that we create. Which you call "special cases". Do you not believe there can ever be exceptions to your rules? I haven't changed any of my interpretations since before I supposedly abandoned my principles, so what does that...

So much for you reasoning with me. You can't even bring yourself to acknowledge the similarities between Daniel 7:13-14 and Ephesians 1:19-23. You won't even comment on that at all. Why not? No, that is not the context of verses 13 and 14. We both believe that what is described in Daniel...

This is too funny seeing you accuse someone else of changing "the Word of God in an attempt to fool people into believing your false, fallen, beliefs" when that's exactly what you do. And you asking someone else to "Post a plethora of out of context scriptures" when that's exactly what you do on...

Remember when you said these guys aren't worth my time? They're not worth your time, either. They resort to blatant lies like saying you hide from the parable in Matthew 25:1-13 despite the fact that you gave your interpretation of it twice. If people are just going to repeatedly lie like that...

Why are you lying? Do you think lying is not a sin? He has given his understanding of Matthew 25:1-13 TWICE now. Here is the second time: The Galilean wedding is the model for the pre-trib rapture And you are trying to say he is hiding from it when he has given his detailed understanding of it...

Are you trying to melt my brain? I truly don't know what in the world you are talking about here. Are we not discussing our personal beliefs and interpretations? I believe my beliefs and interpretations do have strong scriptural support. So, I just have no idea of what you're trying to get at...

Honestly, I'm almost shocked that you actually acknowledged this. Not that it should be hard to acknowledge, but I didn't think you would. So, congratulations on being open minded about that, at least. That does not determine how it is used in Revelation 1:19, so that comment doesn't mean much...

Are you willing to reason with me about this? Please look at what Daniel 7:13-14 says. All of it. Not just the reference to the Son of man coming with the clouds. To who and to where does Daniel 7:13 say that the Son of man (Jesus, obviously) was coming to? It says He was coming "to the Ancient...

Sure. There are no rules about it. They just obviously exist. It's clear to me that Jesus coming as a thief in Revelation 3:3 is both conditional and local only to Sardis. That obviously has a different context to His coming as a thief described in passages like 1 Thessalonians 5:2-3 and 2...

I don't see that connection with the mention of the gathering of eagles or vultures. This other passage shows the context of the gathering of eagles or vultures and it doesn't have any connection with 70 AD: Luke 17:33 Whoever tries to keep their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life...

Or like you calling everyone who sees Matthew 24:15-21 as being related to what happened in 70 AD a preterist, including those who see the rest of the Olivet Discourse as being about ongoing things (earthquakes, wars, famines, etc.), future things (false prophets, many turning away from the...

Okay....? In what way? I couldn't understand what you were saying. Yes.

Somehow, everyone is wrong except you. Aren't you special? Where do you get this idea from? Prove it. Ephesians 1:19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, 20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him...

I didn't say otherwise. I made a little joke about the smiley and nothing more there. It looks like you missed the joke. I was acting as if the smiley was in the original manuscript and Matthew copied it down. So, just a joke.

I'm fine with agreeing to disagree. Not sure what else either of us could say about it that we haven't already said, anyway. I'm also fine with you thinking that I'm using compromised hermeneutics, even though I completely disagree. What I'm not fine with is you falsely claiming that I've...
