  1. Spiritual Israelite

    Both Pretribbers and Preterists are clearly wrong that great tribulation begins with the DOTL.

    You're missing the context of the passage. It is speaking of the last days that had begun already back then and would lead up to the future day of the Lord that will come as a thief in the night bringing "sudden destruction" by fire upon those in spiritual darkness from which "they shall not...

    Both Pretribbers and Preterists are clearly wrong that great tribulation begins with the DOTL.

    You have done nothing to show that Joel 2 is the start of the day of the Lord period of time. Other scriptures say that the day of the Lord will arrive when Jesus comes as a thief in the night (1 Thess 5:2-3, 2 Peter 3:10-12). You need to interpret Joel 2 in such a way that doesn't contradict...

    5. Revelation: The New Jerusalem.

    We ARE told when. It very clearly shows all people, saved and lost (called sheep and goats) being gathered before Jesus AT THE SAME TIME when He comes with His angels (Matthew 25:31). That is when the judgment occurs. Very simple.

    Both Pretribbers and Preterists are clearly wrong that great tribulation begins with the DOTL.

    Here's another good one... This is one of the things that is just so dumb about these debates. You Calvinists think that you are the only ones who give God the glory. As if my belief that people are required to humble themselves and admit that they are complete losers and sinners who can't...

    The Conundrum of Zechariah Ch. 14

    Time to move on from this nonsense.

    The Conundrum of Zechariah Ch. 14

    Why do you ask people questions that they've already answered? His answer to that question is within his post that you quoted.

    The Conundrum of Zechariah Ch. 14

    I'm just going to assume that is what he's doing at this point and it's something I can't understand. This forum is not a place for playing games. Bible doctrine is serious business. He asked me the following question after I have repeatedly shown him where in the Bible that I believe the wrath...

    Both Pretribbers and Preterists are clearly wrong that great tribulation begins with the DOTL.

    LOL! Why haven't you? Probably for similar reasons. Don't act like you're the only one who has wanted to just agree to disagree. We have done that sometimes, but then this subject seems to come up occasionally even though this is an eschatology forum and not a soteriology forum. Tell me again...

    The Conundrum of Zechariah Ch. 14

    I'm just going to assume that you are playing games at this point. What do you think I've been showing you? Just read my previous posts. Matthew 24:21 and Revelation 2:22 speak of great tribulation in terms of God's wrath being carried out against unbelievers. How many times do I have to tell...

    The Conundrum of Zechariah Ch. 14

    What else is "wrath upon this people" in the context of "the days of vengeance" referring to except for the wrath of God? Vengeance is the Lord's, right? So, Luke 21:20-24 is talking about the days of God's vengeance and wrath against the Jews in Jerusalem. Matthew 24:15-22 is a parallel passage...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    I'm convinced now that you're not even trying to see my point. How else to explain you missing it over and over and over again? What a colossal waste of time this is. Of course, Jesus was not trying to tell them what they would have already known. That is not my point at all and nothing I've...

    Both Pretribbers and Preterists are clearly wrong that great tribulation begins with the DOTL.

    LOL. I have done that and you are the one who is trying to keep it going. I don't mind agreeing to disagree. We're not talking about the team, we're talking about the kick returner/receiver. Do you really think that I don't know what you're trying to say? I do and disagree with it. Okay? This...

    The Conundrum of Zechariah Ch. 14

    With all your pointless rhetoric aside, do you acknowledge that Luke 21:20-24 relates to what happened in 70 AD? If so, do you believe that passage is parallel to Matthew 24:15-22 and Mark 13:14-20? If not, why not? Keep in mind that I agree with you that Luke 21 does talk about the future...

    5. Revelation: The New Jerusalem.

    That's one of the things about premillennialism that doesn't make sense. How can Matthew 25:31-46 be a different event from Revelation 20:11-15 when it clearly shows the wicked, which are those whose names are not written in the book of life, are cast into the everlasting fire when Jesus returns...
  15. Spiritual Israelite

    The Conundrum of Zechariah Ch. 14

    Yes, I think the passage you referenced in that post can support what the Revelation 2:22-23 passage is saying, but I would say Revelation 2:22-23 clearly explains itself. It's very straightforward. It indicates that Jesus was going to send great tribulation that would kill Jezebel and those who...

    The Conundrum of Zechariah Ch. 14

    I can't disagree. He refuses to acknowledge it even when you quote him and prove that he said something that he claims to not have said. And he blatantly misrepresents your view (as he has done with mine several times before) of Matthew 24:21. You have always said you see it as God's wrath...

    Both Pretribbers and Preterists are clearly wrong that great tribulation begins with the DOTL.

    Right. It's very noticeable that pre-tribs are the only ones who ever feel the need to make those convoluted charts. There are no charts in scripture. We can understand what is written in scripture without charts. It seems that they make these charts in an effort to make it look like they know...

    The Conundrum of Zechariah Ch. 14

    This is a great point. How can anyone be led away captive to all nations at the end of the great tribulation when he believes that Jesus returns at the end of the great tribulation He referenced in Matthew 24:21? No one will be led way captive anywhere once He returns. He needs to address this...

    Both Pretribbers and Preterists are clearly wrong that great tribulation begins with the DOTL.

    More ranting from you. And you complain about others? Look at how you talk to others. Nothing but childish rants. What are you intending to say about the dead in Christ rising first? How does that prove a pre-trib rapture? What are you saying that the dead in Christ rise first before? The...

    Both Pretribbers and Preterists are clearly wrong that great tribulation begins with the DOTL.

    Oh, how exciting. As if I needed this? No. I know what you were saying and I disagree. Just accept that. Yeah, I know what you were intending to say. I'm a big football fan, so I don't need this explained to me. I disagree that your analogy here is relevant to how salvation works. As you...
