Titus 3:10 A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject; 11 Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself.

I learned this preaching the gospel. You want people to believe and to receive the gospel and to get saved. As a result it is easy to get sucked into a discussion with someone who wants to talk but continuously rejects the gospel. You are not obligated to speak to someone just because they want to talk to you. If you let them play you like that then you are like a puppet on a string. Share the gospel, if they have questions by all means respond to them. Once it becomes clear they are simply playing with you, move on. The same is true of heretics. We are responsible to admonish them, but after the second admonition, move on. What they do with that is up to them.

It is awful to behold the replacement theology crew becoming increasingly unhinged and irrational when confronted with the nuts and bolts Biblical truth. But again, this is to be expected.

Oh I just could not resist.
The replacement theology crew just doesn't know what they are missing out on by rejecting the OT.

Psa 148:4
Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.

Gen 1:6
And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.

Gen 1:7
And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.

Gen 7:11
In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.

Actually you have it completely backwards ..by rejecting the Fulfilled Covenant of Christ Jesus.

And who is rejecting the Gospel?
Perhaps you do not read all that well. I have been actively preaching the gospel since the late 70s, in my experience many rejected it. At first I thought my purpose was to lead people to the Lord so you try and try and try when someone rejects the gospel. But then I learned, my purpose was to witness, I am not the jury, what the jury does with that is on them. Some will receive the gospel and be saved, some will reject it and that will become the basis for judgment. But it is not righteous for God to condemn someone to hell for rejecting Jesus Christ the savior if they have never rejected Jesus Christ the savior. That changed my whole attitude because then I saw that witnessing was my goal, I was not judged on the outcome, only on whether or not I was faithful to witness.
 
China orders firms to ignore US Iran sanctions, daring US to enforce crackdown

China is desperate and is looking for a reason to escalate the war. They had two options, talk to Iran to negotiate with the US, or challenge the blockade for a reason to enter this war. They have decided to try and escalate the war. If Trump doesn't back down this will become a major escalation in this from regional conflict to global war.

The consequences of this blunder are enormous, the US needs to accomplish it on behalf of its owner but it is constrained for

various reasons, if it is unable to destabilize Iran, it means dispensational eschatology is going to be over sooner rather than later.

I was reading some statistics, Evangelical Scofield/Darbist churches are hemorrhaging members...people are abandoning that ship!

Of course, I sense there are political operatives out and about on these online chat forums trying to keep the ship from sinking,

doubtful they will get new converts to the cause, but those who are deeply inculcated, who are too lazy to test to their beliefs will

probably go down with the ship, metaphorically speaking of course.

Okay, so it is just your thoughts and not connected to anyone here.

Btw as teacher you should know that if someone does not understand your point better to explain/elaborate than accuse the person, the onus is on you to clarify without accusation.
