    This world and the wicked are going up in a puff of smoke when Jesus come - thus negating Premil

    Why don't you use that interpretative system then? You have many contradictions in your interpretations of scripture which shows that you do not use this wise interpretative system at all.

    This world and the wicked are going up in a puff of smoke when Jesus come - thus negating Premil

    He was not saying Revelation 20 itself is a boring mantra, he was saying that it was boring for someone to draw all their conclusions from Revelation 20 alone without taking other scripture into account. That person has no concern that his interpretation of Revelation 20 contradicts many other...

    Olivet Discourse revisited

    Not brand new exactly. I believe the heavens and earth will be regenerated (made new) similarly to how our bodies will be changed to be immortal (1 Cor 15:50-54). Our bodies are not going to be annihilated and replaced with new bodies, our bodies are going to be changed. Why does there need to...

    Olivet Discourse revisited

    The eternal new heavens and a new earth where righteousness dwells and death, pain, mourning and crying no longer occur. 2 Peter 3:13 But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells. Revelation 21:4 ‘He will wipe every tear...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    They live and reign with Christ during their lifetimes and while they are in heaven after they physically die. Do you agree? Yes. He's not just talking about people who reign with Him during the entire thousand years as Premils believe. During the thousand years more and more people are added...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    I've tried to address this with him, but to no avail. If the thousand years figuratively represents time itself, as he seems to be saying, then how can it end and how can a little season of time follow it?

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    I agree with all of this. Satan's binding does not completely incapacitate him as Premils imagine. It is a restraint of his previous activities in Old Testament times rather than a case of rendering him completely incapacitated. So, his loosing has to do with him once again not being restrained...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    We can continue discussing it respectfully if you want, but if we continue to not be able to even understand what the other is saying then it becomes fruitless and we might as well agree to disagree at that point. In post #8051 I tried to explain my understanding of Satan's little season more...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    I am wondering about this as well. Several others besides Tim here have unique views all to themselves and seem to think they have special revelation from God as well, such as Taken, The Light, Truth7t7 and Keraz. I would not want to be lumped in with that group.

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    I'm not upset about our disagreement at all, just to be clear. I'm just confused by your particular Amil view as it relates to the timing of the thousand years in relation to Satan's little season. I have never seen anyone who interprets these things the way you do. Have you? If not, does that...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    I don't understand your question and why you are asking it. Can you clarify what you are asking and why?
  12. Spiritual Israelite

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    What you said here is very confusing to me. You said "Satan will be set free to continue in what he has been doing through his minions all along". I completely disagree with this. What is the point of Satan being bound if him being loosed doesn't change anything from what he has already been...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    But, other things you have said are not in agreement with what I said (I was giving my understanding of things), so I either didn't explain myself clearly or you didn't understand what I was saying. I'm not sure which.

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    Unfortunately, Catholics are not encouraged to read their Bibles. They expect their priests to teach them what the Bible says as if those pedophiles know anything about the Bible.

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    I think that translation of the verse is unfortunate because it can be misleading. It's talking about the days leading up to the sounding of the seventh trumpet, but it doesn't come across that way in that translation. Here are a couple translations of the verse that give a better indication of...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    Please explain what you mean by this. What are "demonic hosts" and how do they differ from fallen angels? You agreed that Abaddon/Apollyon is Satan, right? Who else is he king over except for the other fallen angels (Rev 12:9, Matt 25:41)? I believe the thousand years expires at the fifth...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    No, it isn't. Based on what you've been saying, you do not agree with what I said. So, maybe I didn't explain clearly enough this time? Anyway, we're just not understanding each other on this, so we'll just have to agree to disagree.

    This world and the wicked are going up in a puff of smoke when Jesus come - thus negating Premil

    LOL. There will be no recovering from what is described in this passage: 2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare. 11 Since everything...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    It's impossible to take the rants of a Catholic seriously when there are so many false doctrines in Catholicism. Putting the pope and Mary on pedestals the way they do is a complete joke and not supported whatsoever by scripture. Purgatory is a joke and not something taught anywhere in...
  20. Spiritual Israelite

    When will the "sudden destruction" from which "they will not escape" referenced in 1 Thess 5:2-3 occur and what is the scope of it?

    You are denying that He will come visibly and bodily in the future. That is a lie. You are the ignorant one here. Pray for wisdom (James 1:5-7). I'm not going to sugarcoat the truth. You are believing in heresy. He has not yet come. Scripture describes it as the glorious appearing of our...
