Your interpretation of 2 Peter 3:7 completely ignores the context of what Peter is talking about in 2 Peter 3:3-13, which is the second coming of Christ. The entire passage revolves around His second coming. That is established earlier on when he talks about the scoffers in the last days...

This is just complete nonsense. You are denying the obvious here because of doctrinal bias. The heavens and earth are going to be burned up when Christ returns. The wicked and all wicked things must be removed from the earth in order to have the new heavens and new earth "where righteousness...

I don't brush it aside, I point out that doesn't mean it can't be used to refer to those who are physically dead but spiritually alive. Which is true. If you disagree then I question your understanding of the state people are in after they physically die. You brush aside the fact that "protos...

That verse isn't talking about the annihilation of heaven and earth. It's a figurative way of referring to the burning up of heaven and earth as 2 Peter 3 describes to the point where they are no longer heaven and earth as we know them. But, they will be renewed, not annihilated. So, you...

What rules are you talking about? I'm talking about the proper understanding of what it means when it says a day is as a thousand years and a thousand years is as a day to the Lord. It doesn't mean that a day exactly equals one thousand years to the Lord. It's just a way of saying that time...

I'm willing to bet that as well. Timtofly knows that he is completely incapable of supporting his Premil view with scripture, so he resorts to telling lies about Amils instead.

A partial Amil? LOL! There is no such thing. You should not talk about things of which you know nothing about. He believes the thousand years comes after Christ's return. No Amil believes that. So, he is not an Amil in any way, shape or form. If you actually made an effort to think about...

No, that's talking about Him coming with His angels and with the souls of the dead in Christ who will unite with their changed bodies at His return. No one will be raptured before then.

I didn't say that He did. It just turned out that way as far as the destruction of the temple buildings was concerned, but He wasn't only asked about that. He was also asked about His coming and the end of the age which has not yet occurred. Which reference to "these things" are you referring...

LOL! Who are "we"? You and who else? It's obvious what "these things" are. Just read it. Matthew 24:1 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily...

The buildings don't include a wall that wasn't part of the buildings. You're missing the obvious here and the only reason is because of extreme doctrinal bias.

So, you think, for some inexplicable, unknown reason, Jesus decided it wasn't worth His time to answer their question about the timing of the destruction of the temple buildings. I see.

So, just deny clear scripture then if it suits you. That's the only way you can keep your doctrine afloat. John 5:28 “Do not be amazed at this, for a time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice 29 and come out—those who have done what is good will rise to live, and...

No, He was talking about a time (singular - one event) when all of the dead will be raised. It's right there in John 5:28-29. Paul wrote about all of the dead in Christ being raised at the same time when Christ returns, so why don't you have any concept of a mass bodily resurrection of many...

His opinion was based on the scripture from John 5:28-29 that had been referenced. Pay attention.

Is the Lord confined within the realm of time? Do you believe that two days with the Lord is as 2,000 years? Or do you believe that a day, a thousand years, five thousand years, or any amount of time makes no difference to the Lord? As for the day of the Lord written about in passages like 1...

First, you acknowledge that all of the dead will be resurrected and judged on the day Christ returns and then you try to say that the thousand years follows that. That makes no sense whatsoever and shows that no one can trust anything you're saying. We all know that when we're changed we'll...

So, you like to often rant against the idea of parallels being in the book of Revelation but here you are saying that Revelation 20:11-15 is a parallel. Seems rather hypocritical.

Do you expect to be taken seriously when you claim that He didn't even answer one of the questions He was asked? You have to be kidding me. He answered it in Matthew 24:15-22 and the answer is also recorded in Mark 13:14-20 and Luke 21:20-24.

I agree. It was. But, it was also destroyed physically in 70 AD. The disciples were marveling at the physical temple buildings standing at the time in Jersuslaem and then Jesus said they would be destroyed. This is undeniable as far as I'm concerned. And then the first question the disciples...
