It nowhere says the Spirit was not permanent. Just because you say that does not make it so.

Solomon declared in Ecclesiastes 3:11: “He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning [Heb. rô'sh] to the end [Heb. sôph].” No one would think of interpreting this in any other...

Paul confirms the finality of the return of Jesus, in 1 Corinthians 15:22-24, stating, “as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming [Gr. parousia]. Then cometh the end [Gr...

I gave you the Scriptures that says otherwise but you failed to address any of the passages.

Not so. The Greek word eschatos means end, last, farthest or final. The word telos means the termination, completion or that by which a thing is finished. Jesus’ response to His disciples in Matthew 24:6 and 13-14 is notable: “ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not...

You are obviously running out of arguments. What I am arguing has nothing to do with that teaching, and you know it.

Nehemiah testified of God’s help for Israel in bygone days in Nehemiah 9:20: “You gave your good Spirit to instruct them. You did not withhold your manna from their mouths, and you gave them water for their thirst.” Nehemiah 9:30 also talks about, “thy spirit in thy prophets.” 1 Peter 1:7-12...

God's people have always had the Spirit. Here are my findings on this matter: Dispensationalists argue that the old covenant saints could only experience the Spirit of God “upon” them, not “in” them. But Scripture repeatedly contradicts this contention. In the book of Genesis, we see Pharaoh...

So, what is this new period you have created that comes after the old covenant and at the offset of the new covenant that you apply "the end" to called? The New Testament word from which we get our phrase “the end” is the Greek word telos which refers to the point aimed at as a limit, i.e. the...

I removed the LOL as it was not my intent to offend.

They had the Holy Spirit. They had the OT Scriptures. They had His promise. That is enough.

They did not need that. All they needed was His Word. We are the same. No need to add something to the text that is not there.

You just avoided my points, and please keep the insults to yourself. It does advance your case I refer you back.

It is clear that it is talking about the sign of His coming.

You just demolished your own argument. God’s people did not endure until AD70 (your invented end of the Mosaic age). They fled before it. This is another proof that what you are suggesting is nonsensical.

Bro, you avoid this simple point because you have invented an "end" to imaginary period to suit your beliefs. You have no Scripture to support it, thus your continuous avoidance. I will take that as a relucutant admission I am right. When you are promoting that which right (which is often), you...

My last posts disprove that.

I already did. You are yet to address it. Like Full Preterists, you see AD70 as the end of some imaginary age that does not exist. The old covenant ended at the cross. The end of this age occurs at the second coming. You invent some imaginary age which you conveniently deem "the end of the ...

They are synonymous. The Greek word used in Matthew 24:3 for “the end” is sunteleia meaning the entire completion or consummation of a dispensation. The word telos is coupled with and prefixed to the popular Greek word sun (Strong’s 4862) – denoting union and togetherness. The word carries the...

Jesus said in Matthew 23:37–39: “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! Behold, your house is left unto you...
