I actually cannot figure out what you think. I've found your writings rather confusing. As to the early church beliefs, I still must stick to the Scriptures. Pre-trib, mid-trib or post-trib mean nothing to me because I find Matt. 24, Mark 13 & Luke 21 are describing the tribulation leading up...

Spending the first 30 years of my life in dispensationalism I can tell you that what I quoted in the clear statements is denied by dispensationalists. Dispensationalists are waiting for Jesus to be king on the throne and reigning in some future 1000 year kingdom in Israel and deny that Christ...

You apparently did not read the link I gave explaining the difference between dispensationalism and historic pre-millennialism, it reads: Historic premillennialism and dispensational premillennialism are two different systems of eschatology. Here are a few examples of the differences between...

Thanks for your response, Clayman. So often where we end up depends upon the presuppositions at the start. I approach this topic differently. First, I do not believe any book of the NT was written after 70 AD and the destruction of the temple. It is impossible for me to believe that no NT...

I am distinguishing historic premillennialism from dispensationalism which appeared in the latter 19th century. The wikipedia article is inacccurate. The better description is: https://www.gotquestions.org/historic-premillennialism.html

I'll keep waiting until someone wishes to discuss the Scriptures I base my belief on. I suspect the only ones capable of having a true biblical discussion are the brethren who are amil or historic pre-mil or other variations of post-mil. If I have "cobbled together" unrelated Scriptures, let's...

If you can't answer from the Holy Scriptures and give a solid exposition of the passage, maybe you can quote from the man-made footnotes in a dispensationalist study Bible. Of all the OT prophecies, can you name one that is quoted in the NT that refers to Israel in Palestine in our day or the...

Hi chess-player, that is an interesting question. What have I written that prompts you to ask me that? I am not SDA. I do not really claim a denominational tag any more. I will say that the First London Confession of Faith revised in 1646 with Appendix best expresses my understanding of the...

I find the "silliness" to be making claims you cannot back up with any facts or proof. Now to your question: the UN created a 2-State solution, Israel accepted it and the Palestinians rejected it. That is reality. The Israelies are Christ rejectors and the Muslims are Christ rejectors. It...

I see you put that reply in quotes. Who said that? It was not me, nor do I think that. Do you ever try to reply with substance to anything, or just call names and label people, or attribute to them what they did not say. I believe that borders on lying. Try doing what you claim, prove that...

Yes, oh yes, I'm a big fat racist too! LOL "I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan." (Rev 2:9, KJV) "Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say...

How do you know those people calling themselves "the Jewish people" today have any true connection to those Judeans in the Bible? Their religion does not match that of the Old Covenant. Their culture today does not match that of biblical times. The DNA evidence is very shaky. I know my...

God bless you Beckie! I can see the grace of patience is strong with you, it is my weakest, and I must pull away from threads and the nonsensical replies at times to keep my BP down. ;)

I find the simple, most natural understanding of Scripture the best. I embrace the words of Matthew Poole on 2 Cor. 11:3 - Paul, "was afraid, lest that as the serpent by his subtlety deceived Eve, so some subtle seducers should corrupt them, and so withdraw them from the simplicity of their...

One BIG advantage of being 80 is, I can see if dispensationalists' prophecies came true! "Hal Lindsey, author of The Late Great Planet Earth, believed he had unlocked the secrets of this passage in Matthew 24:32-33, suggesting the generation that saw the 1948 rebirth of Israel as a...

If the corrupted FBI comes away with any illegally kept documents from Trump's Florida home, I'll know the FBI planted them there just like crooked cops will plant drugs or a gun on a targeted victim. After ignoring Hillary deleting emails that had been subpoenaed, and the Russia collusion...

By a Freudian slip, you seem to reveal what you truly think. There was a sacrifice that removed ALL the sins of his people, and it is Jesus. "For it was fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, blameless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and exalted above the heavens. Unlike the...

The phrase "the end of the world" I find in Matthew in the KJV, RV, ASV, The Peshitta, BBE and the CEV as to the translations I have in my software. What was in the disciples' mind we cannot know for certain. Did they think the end of the world was the end of the Jewish age with the...

If Jesus was the final and true sacrifice by being slain in the last days, how can dispensationalists adhere to the following in their idea of a future 1000 year kingdom where Christ rules in Jerusalem? "There were also four tables of hewn stone for the burnt offering, a cubit and a half long...

The promise of the land was only for Israel's obedience and they lost it, after having FULL possession of it. What is eternal, everlasting, is salvation through faith in God. I cannot understand why people will not believe the clear words of Scripture in the following: "Now, as you see, I...
