Feel free to regale us with your definition of the Greek aorist subjunctive. Since you can't understand what Scripture clearly declares, leave it for those who can.

Provide us with Merriam-Webster's Hebrew definition of consummation. And with an explanation of the Judean Christians' flight in Matthew 24:16.

Explicit specific text is objective. Context is subjective. That which is objective defines, clarifies, qualifies and quantifies that which is subjective, not the reverse as you claim. "He should smite" in the Greek: 3960 [e] pataxē πατάξῃ He may strike down V-ASA-3S The verb is ASA - aorist...

More dispen delusion and denial. Explain why you believe that Isaiah 44:28, which explicitly distinguishes between and includes both Jerusalem and the temple, is wrong. Even more dispen delusion and denial. Copy/paste the verbatim quote of what you claim I abandoned. With a link to the post.

Copy/paste the verse which specifically says "smite the armies of the nations". There is no greater context than that of specific explicit text. And the text specifically and explicitly says "smite the nations".

Why are you avoiding the question? The question is not who built them. The question is, could they have been built without an authorizing decree being in full force and effect? The answer is unequivocally, no. There is, furthermore, the initial stipulation of Daniel 9:25 which was fulfilled...

Thanks for the guffaw. How do you think that the houses in Jerusalem in Darius' time got there if not by decree? You're a dispen dupe of dispen dupe Anderson.

Ezra 6:14 Decreed by Cyrus and Darius; and finally by Artaxerxes in 457 BC.

Agreed. And those nations are broken to shivers, i.e. destroyed. Specifically declares "smite the nations". Not "smite the armies of the nations". Entire nations. Specific declaration. Consistent with Revelation 2:26-27.

That's what you thought. Isaiah 44 28 That saith of Cyrus, He is my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure: even saying to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be built; and to the temple, Thy foundation shall be laid. Isaiah 45 1 Thus saith the Lord to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have...

Scripture can't help your sadness. The choice: 1. 144,000 sex-crazed Jews or 2. God's Church through the ages The Church and the 144,000 Revelation 7:3-4 describe the 144,000 as “sealed.” That description is reserved in the NT for believers in Christ – His Body and Bride – His Church: 2...

Rebuilding of the city was already evident in the time of Darius, years before Nehemiah arrived. Haggai 1 1 In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, came the word of the Lord by Haggai the prophet unto Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of...

Of course Peter's audience, Christian Israelites (both Jews and Gentiles), understood their calling as part of the holy nation of the Church. There is not the slightest hint that they believed that it had anything to do with Israel as a nation. 1 Peter 2:5, and 1 Peter 2:9 which confirms it...

You claim that the holy nation of 1 Peter 2:9 is the nation of Israel. 1 Peter 2:5 begins with "Ye...are..." It is followed within the verse by descriptions which are exclusive to the Church. Thus "ye" in this verse belong to the Church. 1 Peter 2:9 begins with "Ye are..." As identified in...

1 Peter 2:5 begins with "Ye...are..." "Ye" refers to the Church. 1 Peter 2:9 begins with "Ye are..." "Ye" still refers to the Church. Thus it is the Church that is described in 1 Peter 2:9 as a holy nation. It is not the condemned nation of Israel that is described as a holy nation.

Peter describes the holy nation in a previous verse: 1 Peter 2:5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. Explain how this refers to the Christ-rejecting nation of Israel, which was about...

No problem at all, nothing questionable, nothing to do with merely one nation of Israel, and everything to do with every nation of the International Church. If you have Scripture proving otherwise, please present it.

Yes, the faithful and obedient in Christ in every nation, who comprise the holy nation in 1 Peter 2:9, include the faithful and obedient in Christ in Israel. And the faithful and obedient in Christ in every nation, who fear God and work righteousness in Acts 10:34-35, include the faithful and...

Any time, bro.
