    Preterism misrepresents Scripture

    The cross of Christ is the end for Old Covenant Israel. AD 70 is fulfillment of the destruction Christ said would come to the nation, and proof their house had been left utterly desolate.

    Preterism misrepresents Scripture

    It means faith comes by hearing, hearing by the Word (Gospel) of God. Romans 10:8-10 (KJV) But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe...

    Preterism misrepresents Scripture

    I said: "I've given every verse I found in my KJB, and none of them interpret 'approach' or 'approaching'. None of the 30 verses imply few or even a great many years." The 30 verses don't imply years of any amount, they speak plainly of things that would happen almost immediately, if not...

    The End of the Mosaic Age

    Why do you continually quote verse after verse out of context? What else does Paul have to say about both natural and unbelieving Israel, as well as Israel of faith? Let's allow Paul's words to inform us of Israel that was not rejected by God. Israel that was not cast away by God are Israel...

    The End of the Mosaic Age

    Yes, I agree there are some who are ignorant of the mystery! So, what do you believe the mystery that Paul speaks of is? Paul, without ambiguity tells us that blindness in part has happened to Israel UNTIL the fullness of Gentiles be come in. Paul NEVER says then the blindness in part to...

    Preterism misrepresents Scripture

    The coming of Christ through His Spirit in us is but a spoken Word away. Because faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Gospel (Word). Not only is the coming of Christ through His Spirit quick, shortly and near as the Gospel began to be proclaimed unto all the world, but the second coming of...

    Jesus has devised more than one way to bring people to him

    Why cannot both be correct or truth? They are both correct and truth IF we don't read with a preconceived opinion to prove. Unfortunately, you repeatedly use verses out of context to try and prove your doctrine, rather than to prove what the Bible says is truth.

    Preterism misrepresents Scripture

    I'm not denying that Christ shall physically come again without any delay! The Scripture leaves no doubt. As I've said I believe the context will determine whether it speaks of things that are now at hand, and near, during this Gospel age, and His coming again without delay, quickly or...

    Preterism misrepresents Scripture

    Strong's Greek Dictionary 1451. ἐγγύς engys (engýs) Search for G1451 in KJVSL; in KJV. ἐγγύς engýs, eng-goos' from a primary verb ἄγχω ánchō (to squeeze or throttle; akin to the base of G43); near (literally or figuratively, of place or time):—from , at hand, near, nigh (at hand, unto)...

    Preterism misrepresents Scripture

    Paul, I allow the context written to interpret the time of fulfillment. For instance, when John writes "the time is at hand", according to the context I understand the time at hand is NOT the second physical coming of Christ that is in the far distant future because John is writing of things...

    Then what purpose does another one thousand years after Christ returns serve if no fruit is produced through it?

    The End of the Mosaic Age

    If men/women do not come into the spiritual Kingdom of God under the New Covenant during this age as the Gospel is proclaimed in the power of the Holy Spirit, then they shall be among "the Dead" who shall be judged and have part in the lake of fire that is the second death. This is the age of...

    The End of the Mosaic Age

    The prophesy in Ezekiel 11:19-20 (KJV) And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh. 20 (KJV) That they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them: and they...

    The End of the Mosaic Age

    I see the need for Christ to answer three questions: (1) when will these things be (destruction of the city and temple) (2) what is the sign of your coming (3) and the end of the world. 1. Literally fulfilled in AD 70. Historical record bears this out. 2. Spiritually fulfilled through the...

    Preterism misrepresents Scripture

    In the OP you argue Preterists have not properly understood the second coming of Christ because they are laser focused on AD 70. I agree! Then you said the right way to discern Christ's second coming is by taking predictions pertaining to Christ's return like "quickly," "shortly," and "near"...

    Preterism misrepresents Scripture

    When John writes "the time is at hand" how can he be speaking of Christ's second coming, the Preterists insist was AD 70, and Amils insist is about 2000 years away? When we see how "at hand" has been used throughout the New Testament, we find in each usage it means ready, near, or an arm's...

    Preterism misrepresents Scripture

    There are verses found in the New Testament that refer to both the coming of Christ through His Spirit, but also those verses that refer to His physical coming again at the end of this age, just as He promises He will.

    Preterism misrepresents Scripture

    The Spirit came to Christ's disciples before He was seen physically leaving this earth. It was through the Spirit in them that they were given power to judge. Receiving the Spirit from Christ fulfills the words He spoke to Peter "I will give unto thee the keys of the Kingdom of heaven"...
