    Interesting preterist argument

    Let me lay something out for you to consider, though I suspect your doctrinal bias may make it difficult to fully engage with what I’m trying to show here---especially since you're not even a Preterist, yet agree with them that Matthew 24:21 is meaning 70 AD. My concern is with your...

    HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT: Why I believe this about the timing of the NHNE

    All I know is, I don't dislike Catholics. I have had numerous Catholic friends over the years. It's their religion I don't care for and I don't see it being reasonable that a saint, such as Justin Martyr was deceived about the millennium the entire time, but that Catholics who pray to departed...

    HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT: Why I believe this about the timing of the NHNE

    Have I been assuming some wrong things about you this entire time? Compared to @Spiritual Israelite, even though you and I might not agree about everything, you at least appear to understand where I am coming from and why, where @Spiritual Israelite typically doesn't a lot of the time. Thus why...

    Interesting preterist argument

    Since I noticed you mentioned me here, I already wrote up something to try and address your post with here. But before I submit that, I need to be reminded what EXACTLY is your definition of Noah's flood? Does it qualify as tribulation, for example, in the same manner Matthew 24:21 qualifies as...

    HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT: Why I believe this about the timing of the NHNE

    One reason I have been opposed to Amil is not because I don't want Amils to win the argument, but is mainly because I despise Catholicism. I do not even remotely dislike Catholics, I just don't like their religion. I don't know how many Catholics there might be worldwide, maybe billions for all...

    HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT: Why I believe this about the timing of the NHNE

    Actually, if Amil is true, the only thing that can possibly make sense out of those in Revelation 20:8 during the millennium, is that these are among the ones saved during the millennium, thus not deceived during the millennium. Then after after the millennium they are tested. The ones that are...

    HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT: Why I believe this about the timing of the NHNE

    As to interpreting some of Zechariah 14 literally, and if the NJ is in view at the time, that would mean those that are to come up are not living in that region where the NJ is if they are living in the nations outside of it instead. But somehow, in your mind, verses 16-19 fit the here and now...

    HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT: Why I believe this about the timing of the NHNE

    OK, so you don't spiritualize the animal sacrificing then. Ok, if you say so. I'm being sarcastic of course. In your mind then, why is it ok for you to spiritualize the animal sacrificing but it is not ok for me to do that?

    HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT: Why I believe this about the timing of the NHNE

    Of course it is not literally meaning the feast of tabernacles. Some Premils might believe it is, but I don't. Yet I still believe some of Zechariah 14 is meaning post the 2nd coming, the fact verse 9 can't be fulfilled until verse 12 is fulfilled, and that verse 9 can't be fulfilled until...

    HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT: Why I believe this about the timing of the NHNE

    Since you brought up Revelation 11:15, IMO then, Zechariah 14:9, for example, can't be true until the 7th trumpet sounds first. Yet pretty much all Amils, and maybe even some Premils for all I know, insist Zechariah 14:9 has already been fulfilled. Yet most of these same ones agree that...

    When did the 2nd temple literally initially cease being the holy place?

    For example, unlike some around here that apply the 2300 days recorded in Daniel 8 to that of the days of A4E, I don't. I think it is connected with this subject in the OP. Except like some who might even agree with me that it is connected, I do not take it to be involving a literal brick and...

    HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT: Why I believe this about the timing of the NHNE

    Obviously, you are not nor am I remotely saying you are. I'm simply trying to show that no matter what Amils do here, they are going to contradict something in the process. If they have the DOTL meaning at the end of satan's little season, this means someone can be saved during his little season...

    HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT: Why I believe this about the timing of the NHNE

    No, I already fully realize that Amils do not take everyone saved in the millennium to each live and reign the entire thousand years that Amil insist the millennium is symbolizing. Thus the reason for the hypothetical scenario at the end of my post you are addressing. I don't see anything you...

    Hidden in plain sight: Why I believe this about the Revelation

    Then you should be able to explain why the legion of demons feared to be sent to the abyss before their time if it is just simply a spiritual state of restraint rather than a literal place of some kind. Were the swine they were cast into and the lake the swine drown in, literal things and a...

    HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT: Why I believe this about the timing of the NHNE

    Food for thought. If the “thousand years” is the Church Age, how can Satan be released after it when he is clearly active during it?

    Hidden in plain sight: Why I believe this about the Revelation

    Don't Amils, such as yourself, realize that the LOF is a prison, for example? You seem to think there is no such thing as a prison that can imprison spirit beings. What about the lost when they die? Are they walking around among us in an unseen state since there is no such thing in another realm...

    HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT: Why I believe this about the timing of the NHNE

    No one is saying Amil would say that. The point is that Amil has satan bound while nations are still being deceived. That equals that there is no difference between being bound and being loosed if he can deceive nations while he is bound, and can deceive nations while he is loosed. That would be...

    HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT: Why I believe this about the timing of the NHNE

    If the first resurrection is connected with salvation, and surely it is, the only way Amil can be plausible then, no one can be saved during satan's little season. After all, it is not logical, assuming someone is saved during satan's little season, for them to then live and reign with Christ a...

    Hidden in plain sight: Why I believe this about the Revelation

    Come on now, quit pretending here that reality, thus in the real world, does not expose that you are doing that. In the real world, as we speak, nations are still being deceived by satan and that you have satan in the pit at the same time. It doesn't matter per your view that the pit is not...

    Amillennialism, What it is DESIGNED by the Devil To PRODUCE

    Still avoiding I see. Not one thing that you said here here even remotely addresses what I brought up in regards to Revelation 20:8 and what their role is during the millennium, billions of them. What's in question, not what these in verse 8 are doing after the millennium, but what are they...
