    The folly of Preterism

    The Kingdom of God that is forever and increases every time a man/woman of faith dies is not physical but is spiritual and located with God in heaven. That's why Christ says the Kingdom of God NOW is not of this world, is not observable, and can only be understood and entered when one is born...

    The folly of Preterism

    The entire harvest does not come until the last day when Christ shall send His angels to gather His elect! Christ is the firstfruits of the physical resurrection that shall come. He is the first to be physically resurrected from the dead to physically die no more. The verse you partially...

    A FEW QUICK COMMENTS ON FULFILLMENT ESCHATOLOGY

    Faith comes by hearing, hearing by the Gospel (Word). Without the Gospel of Christ, the Word, none would possess faith to be saved. The Bible, which you say is only helpful, is the Word of God, without which no man shall be saved. You choose to seek after anyone you can find who, like you are...

    After the Devil is Cast Out

    God created the serpent more cunning and crafty to try/test the man woman whom He created with complete autonomy (free will). God already knowing mankind would NOT freely choose to submit to another, not even to Him for everlasting life, had from before creation provided a way for mankind to...

    A FEW QUICK COMMENTS ON FULFILLMENT ESCHATOLOGY

    Now where is the so-called faith you claim to possess? We have and have always had the Word of God that brings eternal life to whosoever believes. You can argue about transcribed error and impure translators and translation, but to argue what we possess is not the Word and Words of life...

    The study of secular history is fine, but remember secular historians, like Josephus, do not write His/story, or the story about Christ, the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

    You've shown you tend to believe much that is unbiblical! It's beyond time for you to stop trying to teach what you clearly do not understand, and begin to learn!

    The reason I respond to your posts MatthewG is because I pray that Christians reading these forums will not be deceived by the unbiblical doctrines you continue to cling to even though you have been shown to err in understanding. There is a fine line to being deceived and becoming a deceiver!

    Once again, you do err not knowing the Scripture! I don't really care what you believe! What matters when discerning Scripture, is what you can biblically prove! Try reading the verses I just gave you. They clearly say that all things are made new again after this first heaven and earth have...

    A FEW QUICK COMMENTS ON FULFILLMENT ESCHATOLOGY

    You do err, not knowing the Scripture. The FACT that evil continues to exist is unequivocally proof that Christ has not come again in 70 AD. For Scripture proves that when Christ returns, He shall make all things new again, and there will be no more sin, and no more suffering and death. There...

    A FEW QUICK COMMENTS ON FULFILLMENT ESCHATOLOGY

    The generation prophesied to pass is the generation of evil, those who are of their father the devil whether Jew or Gentile. As long as evil continues to exist in the world is proof that Christ has not yet come, nor will He come again until the seventh angel begins to sound that time given this...

    The folly of Preterism

    But you are forcing a doctrine using one Scripture without considering all that Christ has said. There were indeed faithful saints in the first century AD whom the Lord saw as already being ready for harvest. But they are not wheat alone, but growing together with the tares. None of faith...

    A FEW QUICK COMMENTS ON FULFILLMENT ESCHATOLOGY

    Yes, but what did John say was coming quickly and shortly? He is not speaking of things that would not happen for 30-40 years. The definition of quickly and shortly does not support your unbiblical opinion that John was speaking of the coming of Christ to Israel in 70 AD.

    A FEW QUICK COMMENTS ON FULFILLMENT ESCHATOLOGY

    Did Paul also say the Gospel that was preached in all the world was a witness unto all nations? It shall be preached unto all nations, that is, to the Gentile world; not only among the Jews, but among the nations of the Gentiles. "All nations" means even those Gentile nations of the world that...

    The folly of Preterism

    No Matthew, it is you who sets a certain time for the return of Christ. As a Full Preterist you say He's already come. Most Christians of true biblical faith simply believe Christ shall come again at the appointed time when the spiritual Kingdom of God in heaven is complete. We don't speak of...

    A FEW QUICK COMMENTS ON FULFILLMENT ESCHATOLOGY

    By the revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave to him, John writes he must reveal unto Christ's servants things which must shortly (without any delay) come to pass. Then John gives blessing to he that reads and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are...

    Why Preaching Is Important

    Though not all are called to be preachers, all are certainly called to be a witness for what the Lord has done for them by His Gospel. Why must we tell people about the Gospel of Christ, the Word? Because faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word. Paul tells the Church in Rome why it is...

    A FEW QUICK COMMENTS ON FULFILLMENT ESCHATOLOGY

    I agree the definition cannot mean some 2000 years later. But where do you find Scripture to support your opinion that 'shortly' or 'quickly' can be defined as around 40 years? Here in the KJV of Scripture are the twelve places we find something defined as coming 'shortly'. Which of these...
