Where does it say that Satan would be bound from persecuting believers? I'm not seeing that anywhere. Looks like you're adding something regarding his binding that scripture itself never teaches.

I was talking in terms of those who are alive on earth being physically destroyed. That is portrayed in both Revelation 19:17-18 and Revelation 20:9. Is it going to happen twice or are those speaking of the same event? It's clear to me that they are the same event and history is not going to...

Of course. But, it's all very important as far as I'm concerned. The way people view eschatology can and often does affect the way they live their lives. Especially when it comes to how people view modern day Israel, but in other ways as well. In fact, 2 Peter 3:10-12 should be having an...

I did say that walls are things that are built, but they were not the temple buildings that the disciples were marveling at. Is this too hard for you to understand or is doctrinal bias just blinding you? You can try to get around it any way you want, but Jesus was not talking about the...

You said this: What was your point in saying this? Was this just another of many pointless things that you've said and nothing more?

Maybe you should just slow things down a bit so that you aren't in a rush to try to refute Amil. It only results in you making yourself look bad by making false claims without doing enough research first. I hope it does speak volumes about me that I don't have to resort to things like this to...

I was talking about my Amil belief in general. I certainly use far more than just a few verses to back up my belief. And LOL at the idea that you can only support your doctrine with verses that explicitly state things. Things can be implicitly stated as well. Anyway, you asked for 1 more...

No, there are no contradictions. There are just false interpretations and assumptions by you. Both passages refer to the destruction of all unbelievers after they oppose Christ and His church. Are all unbelievers in the world going to be destroyed two different times in the future? I see no...

It has to do with how you should take a step back and try to figure out why you interpret figurative things literally and literal things figuratively. Where again did you say it describes heaven and earth as a new heaven and new earth after the flood? I must have missed that. That's what I was...

Walls are things that are built, but they are not temple buildings. Temple buildings are things that have doors, walls and a ceiling that people can go into. This is obvious, but your doctrinal bias is preventing you from seeing the most obvious things. The temple buildings were destroyed. I...

Yeah, that retaining wall is a really amazing building. There has to be some way, but I can't even begin to fathom how that is possible. Yes, I'm sure they did since a retaining wall is obviously a building. It wouldn't have been built if you couldn't go into it. Yeah, I would think someone has...

Paul very clearly and straightforwardly referred to the body, soul and spirit in 1 Thess 5:23. And the soul and spirit are referred to separately in Hebrews 4:12 as well. Those verses are scripture and you are denying what they teach. So, yes, I will go ahead and believe you are denying...

Secret pre-trib rapture? Scripture teaches no such thing. What would be secret about millions of people around the world disappearing, anyway? Where does scripture talk about the complete mayhem that would result from an event like that? Nowhere. If something as significant as that was...

The pre-trib rapture theory is definitely not true no matter how hard you try to twist scripture to fit it. You're not able to show where scripture actually teaches it, so you have to resort to strange things like acting as if what name or title is used to refer to Jesus determines which event...

No kidding. Just because one passage doesn't specifically reference the exact way in which He will gather us to Himself doesn't mean it can't be the same event as another passage that does. This is all pre-tribs have. They think two passages can't be about the same event unless they contain...

Was this actually supposed to be some kind of convincing argument? It's not. Try again and just use scripture to back up your view without playing word games. It's telling that you have to resort to something like this to back up your doctrine.

What you're saying doesn't even make a tiny bit of sense to me. So, it's pointless to even continue this discussion. Let's move on.

Where did Paul say that Jesus won't use His angels to catch us up to Him? He didn't. LOL. Pure unbelief? What do you mean by that? I definitely do not believe in the false pre-trib rapture theory. The way that Jesus will receive us unto Himself is by sending His angels to get us. You need...

Come on. You are denying clear scripture here. In 1 Thessalonians 5:23 Paul clearly indicated that human beings have a body, soul and spirit. Don't deny that just because it doesn't agree with your doctrine. Instead, accept it and adjust your doctrine accordingly. The following indicates...

Exactly. If He was coming from heaven more than once in the future then why didn't Paul specify which coming of Christ he was referring to in 1 Corinthians 15:23? He referred to "his coming" because He's only coming once. The idea that He will come from heaven more than once in the future is...
