Explain then; why is there so much dissent and variety of opinion among those 'learned and wise' theologians?
Dissent regarding, what?
If it's dissent about translations of the Bible; new discoveries are/have been made and language changes. There are passages in the OT which have a footnote to the effect, "the Hebrew for this sentence is unclear." If even the original language is unclear, how do you expect people to agree how to translate it?
If you're talking about dissent in how to interpret a passage - you tell me. A quick glance at the Eschatology forum shows me that you make several long posts, with Scriptures and others disagree with you and also quote Scriptures.
This thread, alone, is supposed to be about debunking myths - yet others disagree with you.
From what I read of those 'highly qualified' people, they are floundering in assumptions, suppositions and plan guesswork. They generally fail to use other scriptures, modern knowledge and hindsight, to help explain the Prophetic Word.
I have no doubt at all that you will tell me that I am wrong - but I don't agree it's our job TO explain the prophetic word.
Or at least, explain it in context, yes. Explain what the people of the day would have understood by it, yes.
But applying it to our age, situation and circumstances? I do not believe anyone has that authority.
For example, in one thread somewhere you seem convinced that the "flying scroll" that Zechariah saw and which had writing on both sides, was actually a nuclear bomb and one country is going to use it, soon, to nuke another.
How on earth did you come to that conclusion?
Why does that Scripture apply to us now, rather than to anyone in the past or to people who are still to come?
You wrote about that as though it is the truth. Several people disagree with you, not only about that, but seemingly about most things that you write.
Isaiah 42:18-20 shows that Gods servants can be fooled
Fooled about what - and which of God's servants are you talking about? Moses wasn't fooled, neither was Isaiah, Jeremiah, Micah, Amos etc.
And they are OT examples - are you saying that God would let his children be deceived? Or that Jesus was wrong and we can be snatched out of God's hand?
AS the forthcoming Day of the Lords wrath, will be the great Day of our test of faith, 1 Peter 4:12, it is not the Lords will that many will understand His plans. As Daniel 12:10b says.
You seem to be mixing random OT and NT Scriptures to try to make your point.
Why?
