Matthew 24:46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. When Jesus tells us to "watch", he is not telling us to watch for signs of the "rapture". Your comparisons between the Ruth story and modern Israel would only be meaningful if that was God's intention in...

Actually there is no point, because you do not believe it. All god's promises to Israel are fulfilled in Jesus and His bride, but to you that is not acceptable. Hebrews 8 plainly tells the fulfillment of God's new covenant with Israel, but you discard that because it involves the church. Jesus...

The seal of God and the mark of the beast are obviously things that God sees, though I am not entirely sure they are things that man sees. In any case it is the loyalty of the person that either justifies or condemns. Many have received the mark of the beast already simply because their loyalty...

He could always dwell in the temple that is the body of Christ and desecrate that one, except that he is already here doing that.

Unless of course you have confused the kingdom of God with a non-repentant secular nation.

I doubt that 1948 has anything to do with it. Arab Palestinians carry more of Jacob's DNA than Israelis do, yet they were driven from their home. Criminal behavior in which many Christians continue to be complicit.

God has already performed all His promises to Israel. Have you noticed that God never curses Abraham? Genesis 12:3 is directed to him personally, that is why the passage uses the personal pronoun so many times. God blessed Abraham's friends and cursed his enemies. If the verse was applied to...

Yes, that is what I mean. None of that is about the modern state of Israel. If your focus was on Jesus, not on Israel, You would begin to understand prophesy.

If you want to win some sort of ego battle, be my guest, because I surrender. If it is about the truth, let God be true, but every man a liar (Romans 3:4). It is only true if God is glorified. If you seek your own glory you are not worth having a conversation with. If you seek the glory of the...

It is an exceedingly simple matter to "debunk" anything. You just would not be respecting the author of the Bible. Just declare yourself to be the Judge, Keep your favorite assumptions, and if they fit nothing Biblical, decree that they shall come to pass in the future. You will need to avoid...

Assuming a gap in those 70 weeks is foundational to a large chunk of the dispensationalist/futurist construct. You are at risk of becoming like us if you do not fall in line with their ridiculous assumptions.

But in the verses preceding 11:26 Paul speaks of a remnant of his kinsmen, and your interpretation would have him switch to the entire earthly nation, predicting a rosy future to that establishment just a few short years before it was brutally destroyed. Paul's argument would not be logical if...

Whatever happens then happens after the earth is destroyed, so any non-heavenly hope will prove futile in the face of that event. And that sounds like you get it? As long as you understand that Heavenly Jerusalem is not a city made with hands, but the actual bride of Christ. The citizens of...

Well I can see by your exegesis of those passages that you like modern Israel a lot. If I examine the same passages I tend not to be searching for the same thing, and may not understand them all the same way. If we were to more closely examine the points you make, the type of mutual respect that...

It seems that we both are understanding 2Peter 3:10 as relating to the final judgement and not the destruction of Jerusalem. I am also convinced literally that "the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up", so no disagreement on that chapter. Burning up the earth would of...

It all still fits with the first coming of Christ in my understanding, as Jesus has been reigning ever since. Jesus reigns from heavenly Jerusalem, and by destroying earthly Jerusalem in AD70 showed us that He did not hold it in high regard. For you Guys it seems that you need to believe that He...

Actually in the context of Psalm 122 it would be praying for the city that the Messiah will come to for the first time.

Nope, makes no sense at all. People can say "blessed is he that comes in the name of the Lord" from anywhere.

"Your Honor, I assisted that bank robber because I believed that he would later return the money". "That's fine son, now I understand. Next Please!"
