  1. Spiritual Israelite

    70 AD revisited

    In Daniel 9:27, when it talks about the sacrifices and offerings ceasing, it is not talking about the literal end of sacrifices and offerings, it is talking about them being made obsolete (no longer in effect, no longer necessary). You do understand that Christ's sacrifice made the old covenant...

    70 AD revisited

    Have you never read the following where His people came to realize that He promised them something even better, so, as a result, they started looking for something better? Hebrews 11:8 By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance...
  3. Spiritual Israelite

    70 AD revisited

    We are showing how an event being the worst ever can be understood in different contexts (such as most people killed, highest percentage of people killed, worst types of atrocities occurring, etc.). But, you don't seem to want to even consider that. I made no such claim. Not even close. Why do...
  4. Spiritual Israelite

    70 AD revisited

    LOL. Exactly. Dispensationalists are so literal and carnal in their thinking that they can't even accept that God revealed something even better than what was originally revealed. As if God is not allowed to do that for some reason. "No, God. Sorry. You have to stick with the original promise...

    70 AD revisited

    Wrong. Don't try to tell me how I am interpreting it. I will tell you how I am interpreting it. My interpretation sees Paul as referring to the descendants of the nation of Israel and to spiritual Israel. That's two Israels. And I believe he indicated that not all of the descendants of Israel...

    The False Idea of Replacement Theology

    Yep, that's what he's talking about alright. I'm trying to get him to actually read Romans 11 so that he can actually see what it's about, but it appears he'd rather just make things up without reading it.

    The False Idea of Replacement Theology

    Have you never read this: Ephesians 3:1 For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles, 2 If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward: 3 How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words, 4...

    The False Idea of Replacement Theology

    Yes, exactly. Do you not think you are grafted into the tree? Where does it say a branch (singular) was cut off? It doesn't. It says branches (plural) were cut off. Stop changing scripture. Romans 11:17 And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert grafted...

    The False Idea of Replacement Theology

    Exactly. Well said. People foolishly accuse those of us who see it the way you described here as promoting replacement theology even though we don't believe anyone has been replaced. It was God's plan from the beginning to include Gentile believers as "fellowheirs" of His promises (Ephesians 3:1-6).

    The False Idea of Replacement Theology

    Don't put words in my mouth. The ones Paul talked about in particular were his fellow Israelites that were alive in his day. I didn't then say something else besides that. You are just not understanding what I'm saying because you have terrible reading comprehension skills. That is not what...

    Preterism misrepresents Scripture

    Yes, and I showed you how ridiculous it is to see it how you do. So, when it says Christ will appear it means He will understand? It says we will see Him as He is. You think that means we will understand Him as He is? No one does. Are you just saying it is not yet made known what we will be? I...

    Preterism misrepresents Scripture

    When you say things like "I can only go by what is written" it comes across as if you go by what is written and I don't. You can understand how that can come across, right? Regardless, I accept your apology. No issues. The order Paul gave was of bodily resurrections just like Christ's. That is...

    70 AD revisited

    We are discussing Daniel 9 and related scriptures. You are the one who thinks Daniel 9 has something to do with the salvation of all Israel, so it is you who brought Romans 11 into the discussion, not me. LOL. No, I do not. When all you can do is constantly make false claims like this the way...

    70 AD revisited

    I agree. The stubbornness we see being displayed on this forum at times is almost unbelievable. There clearly are various contexts in which an event can be considered the worst of all-time. It could be one resulting in the most total deaths (Christ's return will be the winner there). It could...

    Preterism misrepresents Scripture

    When Paul talked about a spiritual body, he was not talking about the corporate body of Christ. He was comparing one type of individual body (the natural body like we all have) with another type of individual body that he called a spiritual body. So, you acknowledge that it is the spirits of...

    Preterism misrepresents Scripture

    I only go by what is written as well, so it's pointless to say things like this. It comes across as if you're saying I'm not going by what is written. I am. But, I interpret some things that are written differently than you. So be it. We both know we also interpret many other things the same. I...

    70 AD revisited

    Are you kidding? It has EVERYTHING to do with this conversation. You can't understand what Paul meant when he said "and so all Israel shall be saved" without understanding which Israel he was talking about. Romans 9:6-8 is not that complicated. You have to make things complicated in order to...

    Preterism misrepresents Scripture

    You continue to not address my point. Why is that? Read 1 Cor 6:3 again. Can you not see that Paul was contrasting judging angels/messengers at some point in the future with judging things that pertain to this life now? Why are you acting as if him saying we shall judged angels/messengers has...

    Preterism misrepresents Scripture

    I have done that by showing the contrast Paul made between the natural body and the spiritual body. You can disagree with my conclusions all you want, but you cannot accuse me of not backing up my claims with scripture. You know I do that all the time and this is no exception. Why are you...

    Preterism misrepresents Scripture

    Of course, that's what I believe you are doing, so...yeah. I'm not assuming anything. I'm going by what Paul said. You think you are, too. Let's leave these petty accusations out of the discussion or the discussion is just going to be over. It's up to you. I'm not doing that. It is written...
