There is no difference between the day of Christ and the day of the Lord. Other translations even have "the day of the Lord" there instead of "the day of Christ". There is no basis whatsoever for making this distinction. Paul was talking about the day that Christ returns and we're gathered to...

I didn't say otherwise. Right. And she died again later, too. The word resurrection can refer to different things, but it generally means to be brought from death to life. It can refer to someone being resurrected from the dead back in their mortal body or, in the case of Jesus and those who...

That's a lie. I am not removing any literal words. I am recognizing the symbolic words used to reference the things that the symbolic woman sits on (many waters, the beast with seven heads and ten horns, and the seven mountains) and determining what those symbols mean in reality. So, I am not...

Always Believing...I mean Robert...I mean Gilligan, what in the world are you talking about here? Have you never read John 11 which talks about the death of Lazarus and then about how Jesus raised him from the dead? John 11:38 Jesus, once more deeply moved, came to the tomb. It was a cave with...

Are you trying to change the subject? This has absolutely nothing to do with what I was talking about. What I was discussing was how many comings of Christ there are. Scripture says there are two. Obviously, His first coming occurred long ago and then His second coming will occur in the future...

You are cowardly and not willing to address any points that refute what you believe. You just call them a distraction and don't even attempt to address them. This is a complete waste of time since you are not willing to take part in honest discussion.

Great argument there. Very convincing. So? The woman also sits on the beast with seven heads and ten horns. Is the beast clearly explained? Can you easily identify the beast? Hardly. So, what you're saying is pointless. Again, the symbolic woman sits on symbolic things that represent things in...

Yes, it is. Good thing I don't hold to that. LOL. It's scary that you are wasting your time looking out for this imaginary Boogey Man. You say this supposed "Future Literal Human Man" is "Paul's Man of Sin". If Paul was referring to an individual man of sin then should we conclude that the...

Of course. Who doesn't know that? Only those who have never read this: James 1:5 If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. 6 But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is...

So, why are you not able to address it then? I made legitimate points and all you can do is call it a distraction? That's a joke. Your hyper-futurist dispensationalist way of looking at things is "SAD". Seeing everything in prophecy as either all fulfilled in the past as full preterists do or...

You're not being consistent here. First, you say the 7 heads are 7 European leaders. And you're talking current or future leaders, right? Then you say the heads, which are called hills (or mountains) are "metaphors for 7 successive kingdoms in history (I agree). But, you can't have it both ways...

What was your point in mentioning this? Do you think the length of time you study prophecy determines whether your doctrine is true or not? I hope not because there are people who have studied prophecy for just as long and disagree with you. So, you saying this seems rather pointless. And it's...

That's a good verse, Robert. I guess it means that we shouldn't answer your questions since...you know...

It's interesting that Gilligan and Always Believing have said very similar things. Are they friends of yours? Do you all have the same teacher who teaches you terms like "pseudo spirit-only millennialism" that no one else uses?

Thanks. But, it's interesting that you consider a post that you disagree with to be "excellent". ;) How is that any different than what Paul referenced a bit earlier in 1 Corinthians 15:26 when he talked about the last enemy, death, being destroyed? It seems to me that the way in which death...

Okay, "dude". It's quite clear that you can't be reasoned with. Jesus said "Elijah has already come" and that it was John the Baptist and you say he has not come yet. I will side with Jesus on this.

It's not another battle. History isn't going to repeat itself. Scripture teaches that Christ will destroy all of His enemies when He returns and both Revelation 19:11-21 and Revelation 20:7-9 depict that. The book of Revelation sometimes gives different vantage points of the same event...

Jesus taught that at the end of this present age believers "will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father". Matthew 13:40 “As the weeds are pulled up and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the age. 41 The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will weed out of his...

I see a connection between death being swallowed up in victory and what Paul wrote here: 1 Corinthians 15:24 Then the end will come, when he hands over the kingdom to God the Father after he has destroyed all dominion, authority and power. 25 For he must reign until he has put all his enemies...

He referenced a rapture, but didn't say anything about a rapture to heaven. Why don't you actually read what people are saying instead of making assumptions about what they believe?
