    Did Jesus return around 70 AD?

    You are assuming that the stones Christ spoke about in Matthew 24:1–2 must refer exclusively to the physical stones of the temple building and that His prophecy must therefore be confined to the events of AD 70. But have you considered how Scripture itself uses stones to represent God’s people...

    Did Jesus return around 70 AD?

    The establishment of God’s kingdom in power was SPIRITUAL, taking place at Pentecost when the Holy Spirit was poured out upon Christ’s people. Did you carefully read and consider the verses I quoted? You cannot simply ignore the scriptural context and force these events into a first-century...

    Did Jesus return around 70 AD?

    When we are resurrected with Christ, that is the restoration of Israel. Christ's death and resurrection serves as the restoration of Israel "because" Christ is the True Israel. When Christ gave us eyes to see, we were restored (Mark 8:25) Spiritually, not physically. The Kingdom didn't come with...

    Did Jesus return around 70 AD?

    Good question, indeed. Looks like I need to explain the First Resurrection again for anyone who want to enlightened with. A solid basis for Christians to understand the first resurrection was provided by the Scriptures interpreting themselves, and they clearly declare that the first...

    The Case for a Post-Tribulation Second Coming

    LOL. Typical premillennial fantasy. You are speculating that the white horse of Revelation 6 is Satan or antichrist who will take over the world without fighting a war? "Selah", your interpretation of Revelation 6:2 is not what the text explicitly says. You are imposing a premillennial...

    The Case for a Post-Tribulation Second Coming

    Where, exactly, does Scripture say that the son of perdition will be a “false messiah”? Show us the passage. Quote the actual words of Scripture and explain them in their proper context. Do not present your speculation as biblical fact. It is not enough to make a claim and expect others to...

    The Case for a Post-Tribulation Second Coming

    True. The son of man is the False Messiah? I do not read that in Scripture. Of course. That theorists comes from the premillennial/pre-tribulation rapture camp. Not the Holy Spirit? Not those in the church with the Holy Spirit? But created celestial being with feathered wings called...

    Did Jesus return around 70 AD?

    Controversial? Ha... no, it "IS" a false doctrine! You are becoming like honey that attracts flies here—the false teachers and laymen who promote Preterism and their first-century fulfillment theories coming down on you. By opening the door to these doctrines, you risk giving false teachers a...

    The Two Anointed Ones = The Two Witnesses

    So are the two Olive Trees! Selah! Will this definition of the two witnesses hold true in the other images God uses for them, such as the two witnesses or the two Olive Trees? Do those also symbolize the Church which is the earthly representation of Christ? Again, we go back to the number one...

    The Two Anointed Ones = The Two Witnesses

    Ahhh...and there it is—you finally admitted the problem: you have to make Jesus’ “three days and three nights” figurative because your 36-hour calculation doesn't fit the text. :Laughingoutloud: But then you compound it by inventing a story that Scripture never says: that Jesus was resurrecting...

    The Two Anointed Ones = The Two Witnesses

    Case in point! “So shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.” — Matthew 12:40 Does that sound like 36 hours to you, @Earburner? :laughing: The problem is NOT that Scripture contradicts itself. The problem is trying to force Scripture into your 36-hour...

    The Two Anointed Ones = The Two Witnesses

    Yes, I did the math—and you did everything except answer the point. Nobody disputes that Mary found Jesus alive on Sunday morning. The question is whether Scripture says He rose on the third day. It does: “after three days rise again” — Mark 8:31 “he rose again the third day” — 1 Corinthians...

    The Two Anointed Ones = The Two Witnesses

    When did Christ resurrected his body, according to Scripture? And yes, it says three days as I explained in my recent response to Earburner just now. After his resurrection, yes, which is on third day. No need to know the exact year, month day hour minute second, or even light year...

    The Two Anointed Ones = The Two Witnesses

    (Chuckle). Clearly you did not check with your Bible carefully. You denied that Christ need to wait 3 days for his resurrection. Guess what, Jesus said you are wrong. Here is what He, Himself, said through Mark and Paul: “the Son of man must be killed, and after three days rise again.” —...

    The Two Anointed Ones = The Two Witnesses

    LOL. And you still could not explain Matthew 27:52-53 biblically either.
  16. TribulationSigns

    The Two Anointed Ones = The Two Witnesses

    I agreed and I never taught it! So why did you make false accusation like that? Geez! Wrong on both counts. Read the verse carefully: Matthew 27:52–53 "And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went...

    The Two Anointed Ones = The Two Witnesses

    I think you got really confused with the conversation between me and Earburner. I was taking his sentence in his post: "Or did he literally see resurrected dead bodies WALKING in the street (for 40 days)?" I was being sarcastic with him for suggesting that I teach about "resurrected dead...

    The Two Anointed Ones = The Two Witnesses

    LOL!!!! Wow, you did not read my post well. Didn't you read my quesiton: "And where does Matthew say these resurrected saints walked around Jerusalem for forty days?" It is because you wrote in your flawed post, "Or did he literally see resurrected dead bodies WALKING in the street (for 40...

    The Two Anointed Ones = The Two Witnesses

    You do not make a sense at all. You twisted the Scripture. Period.

    The Two Anointed Ones = The Two Witnesses

    Chuckle. You keep demanding an answer I already explained long ago, while conveniently avoiding my questions about the dead bodies of the Two Witnesses lying exposed in the street for 3½ days, with no one permitted to bury them (Revelation 11:8–9). The two candlesticks represent the faithful...
