LOL even Zechariah admits they couldn't all get into Jerusalem so I am in good company. But if you wish to believe absurdities, be my guest.[/B][/COLOR]
But it will all 'cease' when He comes, some being raptured the remainder judged.
so that they will be able to be raptured.
see above.
I think you started it LOL but you must admit its fun.
if there has been utter destruction how has Jerusalem survived? Answer - in heaven.
The only way that the OT prophets could point to the new Jerusalem in heaven which was outside the range of their thinking. Those of us who read the NT know exactly what he meant.
He did expect us to read the NT

who said I did not?? You?? were you there?
well you didn't get it right in your posts
yes I am aware of this and was as I wrote. but even you have to see that if he received him in a figurative sense he did not do so literally. Thus there WAS NO literal resurrection
see above LOL[/B][/COLOR]
Abraham believed in a resurrection that was not going to happen. you believe in a millennium which is not going to happen. BOTH ARE FIGURATIVE - that is NT teaching
yes like Abraham you believe in something that is not going to happen because God intends to answer figuratively. Guess its not me who is losing it.
I prefer the New Testament interpretations of them ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
when you are a little older you will see that in OT prophecy the one blends into the other. Read Isaiah and check all the references to Jerusalem. It is very clear there.
see above.
But that is not what Zechariah said.
nothing about representative there. 'every one that is left of all the nations will go up'. crystal clear.
Glad you admit what you said was dumb, I don't need your help son.
well I must to bed
