Retrobyter, I do not believe I am the one "interpreting" what Jesus said. That is what everyone else is doing on this subject just like you. I am declaring that these scriptures are in no need of interpretation whatsoever. They say and mean exactly what Jesus says. Seems to me everyone else is...

There is no such thing as a one or two time prophetic event called THE resurrection. There is a doctrine or doctrines called THE resurrection but no event. What people suppose are prophetic events about resurrection is merely the usage of illustrative language and pictures used to teach the...

How about this one, Isaiah 54? 1 ​​​​​​​“Shout for joy, O barren one who has not given birth! Give a joyful shout and cry out, you who have not been in labor! For the children of the desolate one are more numerous than the children of the married woman,” says the LORD. 2 ​​​​​​​Make...

I have a different take on those two prophecies. In the book of Daniel there are two clearly prophesied "ends," or "end times." One is the end of the old covenant age.The other is the end of the age of the gentiles, the time when those four empires ruled over all of Gods old and new testament...

Duckbill, There is an unfortunate reality that accompanies the verse you are using in discussions about the topic you have laid out. The sad reality is the few know why God "rejected" Esau. It makes the topic more difficult to discuss when you do not know why God did this even before Esau was...

Very good job Insight. It is always nice to see someone take the Word of God for what it says. What you are saying is certainly not very popular today. There is allot more prophecy in the book of Genesis regarding the first verses the second covenants. I call it prophecy rather than types and...

As I said the word "second" does not appear before the word "coming" in the New Testament.

Isaiah 60:1. Arise, shine; for your light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon you. 2. For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon you, and his glory shall be seen upon you. 3. And the Gentiles shall come to your...

I'm not really surprised by some of the words bandied about on these posts. Liar, Child of Satan the father of lies, blah blah blah. Don't think much of followings forum rules. it is what it is though. By your definition of Preterism Bible Scribe and Veteran you yourselves are Preterists...

That is awful strange. To be accused of having a "doctrine of men" because I acknowledge the words of Christ exactly the way he said them just like you underlined them. Then you go on to accuse me of something you are doing not me. Taking the seven seals and seven vials of Revelation and...

Veteran, That kind of rhetoric better scare you. Just like bearing false witness against someone aught to scare you. So I have answers to your other signs if you care to read which I doubt. http://www.wordservice.org/Bible%20Basics/bb3000.htm

Veteran, Neither can you override prophecies that are for now and for the future with prophecies that were fulfilled in the past. That is why I write what I write. When you take prophecies that were fulfilled in the past and place them in the future. Then you are blind to the ones that are in...

Hmmm. So I in all practicality say that the doctrine of Preterism is "heresy." I also lay out what Preterism is. Furthermore I state that the term Partial Preterist is a ruse by Preterist's to legitimize their teaching by calling many great evangelical\Pentecostal preachers of old that believed...

I uhh don't think the "Devil" has changed my understanding of the word "generation." Its meaning in the Strong's is pretty clear. The way it is used in the New Testament is just as clear. Matthew 1:17 (KJV) So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from...

Preterism is a belief that all of Bible prophecy including all of the book of Revelation was fulfilled with the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D. Ridiculous isn't it? Yet I consider it just as ridiculous to deny that with very plain and simple wording Jesus attached a date to the destruction...

Well you are correct, it is referring to the end of an age. The Greek word is "aion" it is not translatable into the word "world" in modern English. It is the word "age." I realize some translations do this. They are not translating though they are interpreting. Which you do not need some one...

It's kind of a simple explanation. If you did not have an overall belief on the subject already. How would you take these words? Matthew 24:32. Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is close: 33. So likewise, when you...

Get with you tomorrow on that if I don't get busy. Kind of tired tonight. Thanks for not getting offended.

n2thelight, I'm not trying to be short, or mean, personally attack you or anything like that. It's just that I live near Sedona AZ, New age mecca. I could go to any one of their centers up there and listen to them use the Word of God the exact same way you are using it. No regard for any rules...

There would be no difference whatsoever. It seems you are taking it in the common sense simplicity it should be taken. However I would ask that you do the same for the generation thing. If Jesus says no one knows the day nor the hour this will take place but it will take place before this...
