Right, but Jesus is pointing out the permanence of God's judgment, which is displayed graphically by what happened there. I fully understand your assertion. What will happen will surely be literal, and no one is denying that. No one is denying this. But what was literally true of Sodom and...

Truth, generally speaking, you're missing what the function of the Old Testament was as opposed to the New. This is surely not to say that the Old Testament is any less important, or any less relevant to us, than the New Testament. Nor is it to say that there is no continuity from the Old...

And I say the very same to you, Davy. Actually, it's a matter of understanding it correctly. Grace and peace to you.

Nobody is "disregarding" or "ignoring" anything, Truth7t7. And the "fail to recognize" stuff... Come on. Yes, we disagree. The fire is symbolic of God's judgment and condemnation of the unrepentant. This is true throughout the Bible and throughout all time; we see this in Psalm 11: "The...

Well, the Millennium is past, present, and future, actually; it began at Pentecost and will conclude at Jesus's return. The "thousand years" (the Millennium) should be understood as the fullness of God's time in bringing His Israel, which contains both Jew and Gentile (people from every tongue...

What I posted in another thread seems appropriate here, also: The problem is that many folks read Revelation like something it is most assuredly not -- a "puzzle book" where it's necessary to figure out what "this" really is and what "that" really is -- rather than a picture book, in the manner...

The problem is that many folks read Revelation like something it is most assuredly not -- a "puzzle book" where it's necessary to figure out what "this" really is and what "that" really is -- rather than a picture book, in the manner of a 10-year-old reading "Where the Wild Things Are."...
