First, lets parallel that verse. I noticed you didnt do it, so Id like to help you make your case against the futurists. First, we need to see if we can verify the verse against the Bible. Oh, look, we have a previous prophecy from Christ that matches. Mat_24:43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. Luk_12:39 And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through. Rev 3:3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee. Rev_16:15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. So now we essentially have 4 verse that confirm what Christ was saying Chronologically. To the extent the prophecy is given, we can trace it from Matthew all the way to Rev 16:15. So, we need to see if the events in Rev16 have happened yet. Rev 16:12 And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. Since Christs prophecy is given in Matthew, and the last we hear about it is Rev16:15, then we know that any events prior to 16:15 that havent happened, means that this prophecy being used hasnt happened. Fortunately, I just happened to have a pic I made from Google showing the Euphrates, which in fact, has yet to dry up.. Prophecy unfulfilled.
