    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    Because Satan is a spirit being and it's talking about physical things like a dragon being chained up in a prison. I've already explained this many times and you still have to ask me "why not?".

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    And no one will mourn for that person? Isaiah 65:19 And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying. 20 There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    2 + 2 = 4. I'm expecting that someone will respond and ask me "so, you're saying 2 + 2 = 5?".

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    Yes, I can and I have and I will continue to do so. Because, unlike you, I take the rest of scripture into account when interpreting it. You obviously start out interpreting Revelation 20 in isolation from the rest of scripture and then change the rest of scripture to fit your interpretation of...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    Ugh! Why does communicating on here have to be so difficult? I don't get it. Let me try to spell this out for you. You say that Isaiah 65:20 should be interpreted literally and should be applied to a future thousand year earthly kingdom of Christ, right? And you believe people will die...

    Is stunnedbygrace on your ignore list or something? No, babies won't be born in heaven. Why do you ask?

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    So, you equate the word spiritual with the word physical. Even though a spiritual event like Pentecost literally happened. I'm not going to waste any more time over semantics like this. It's a complete waste of time and results in making it impossible to have a reasonable discussion with you.

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    Not so fast. Please read it again. Isaiah 65:19 And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying. 20 There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days: for the...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    Right. Did I say otherwise? But, it was a spiritual event, right? Can something spiritual not also be literal? Of course it can. Why can't you comprehend that? I don't need to do that, either. But, I also recognize that if something is spiritual or if something is described symbolically, that...

    Daniels 70-Weeks Timeline

    And what is the antecedent of "him" in that passage? That is the point I was making, which you missed. Using the same type of grammar rule you're using in Daniel 9:26-27, the antecedent of "him" in 2 Thess 2:8 would be "the Lord". Yet, we know that "him" in verse 8 is not referring to the Lord...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    I would like this to be a two way discussion if you don't mind. Can you please answer my question first and then I will answer yours. Fair enough? So, again, will no one mourn the death of someone who dies before a hundred years of age at that time? Isaiah 65:19 And I will rejoice in...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    I don't believe there is such a thing. It doesn't make any sense. But, notice that it says that "he lay hold of the dragon" and then proceeds to remind everyone that the dragon is "that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan". So, it's actually portraying a dragon being chained up, which...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    Will no one mourn the death of someone who dies before a hundred years of age at that time? Isaiah 65:19 And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying. 20 There shall be no more thence an infant of days...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    Then please explain how that works exactly. You understand that spirit beings aren't physical beings that can be physically chained up, right?

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    No, He reigns at the right hand of His Father. He reigns at the same level as the Father, in other words. But, that changes once He returns, as the following indicates: 1 Corinthians 15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. 23 But every man in his own order...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    Why can't you see that something similar occurs in Revelation 19 and 20? Because of doctrinal bias perhaps? I think so.

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    No logical conclusion at the end of chapter 19? LOL. I beg to differ. Revelation 19:20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    Once again, you have missed the point. I'm not doubting what God is capable of doing. That's not the point at all as I'm sure you know. None of us here on this forum would question that. My point is that a spirit being like Satan can not be physically bound with a chain. To argue that God can...

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    The reasons God does things are given throughout scripture, but in this case there would be total silence about His reasoning? I completely disagree.

    22 major reasons to abandon the Premil doctrine

    Yes, of course. Did you think I was saying otherwise? If so, I'll re-read what I posted to see if I wasn't being clear.
