    Jesus and the Trinity

    To the heretics in the hall; I have been censored twice now for posting what I believe to be Christian views. Once was for speaking of preterism in the orthodox section, and once for giving a link to a Christian web site that discussed the very topic the thread was about. Apparently both are...

    Jesus and the Trinity

    Thank you for your reply - that helps a bit - puts things in a better perspective. On the trinity subject - [Staff Edit] Thanks again, Snashin

    Jesus and the Trinity

    Hi 4pillars, Thank you for your reply - that put a few things in perspective. But I noticed that your post was devoid of any mention of the female except in the natural/physical realm. Are you saying there are only two? Father and Son? IF we are spirits, are we only male spirits? If God is...

    Jesus and the Trinity

    Balthasar, It's a topic I can do without. I'm not Catholic. I'm not looking for a Goddess to worship. I don't even like the word. I have no Biblical reason to elevate Mary the way some people have. I most certainly have great awe, respect, and admiration for her, and cannot imagine what it was...

    Was God's Kingdom already established in 70 AD ? - Preterism views

    yeshuasavedme, Let me ask you a question. Who is the we in Genesis - when God says in Genesis 1:26? "26And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness...." Also which version/s of the Bible do you use? Thank you, Snashin

    Was God's Kingdom already established in 70 AD ? - Preterism views

    Hi Seebs, Welcome. Good question on your part as well. But I don't believe you have any Biblical basis for that statement. You're probably speaking of the verse in Revelation where Jesus says He will be with us always. Right? You might assume that you cannot because you think He is speaking...

    Was God's Kingdom already established in 70 AD ? - Preterism views

    Hi yeshuasavedme, I'm just not buyin' it. Jesus says that some would not even taste death before He returned. Why do you think that is not literal? Snashin

    Jesus and the Trinity

    :wave: Hi all, I recently joined ChristianForums to talk about a couple of things I have been thinking about recently - one of which is the subject of whether God's Kingdom was already established in the year 70AD - you can see this topic in this Unorthodox Theology section. I tried to bring...

    Was God's Kingdom already established in 70 AD ? - Preterism views

    Hidden Manna, Amen :amen: Thank you for your reply. Are there any scriptures that have had a significant effect on your life in light of your preterist views? It has had a considerable effect on how I view my own salvation - just in the sense that it is so personal - but isn't that just...

    Was God's Kingdom already established in 70 AD ? - Preterism views

    Just a few thoughts I have on Preterism: It seems that for 6000 years we've been trying to get it right. We were given 4000 years under the law to prepare the way for the Lord. Now the Lord has come, His Kingdom has come, and we are in it. We no longer need to prepare the way. Worship means...

    Was God's Kingdom already established in 70 AD ? - Preterism views

    I'll take this short one first. (catching up on my work after my computer problem - my internet connection was only lasting for 10 minutes and I had to spend a lot of time on the phone with the router company to get it fixed) Matthew 17:22-23 Now while they were staying in Galilee, Jesus said...

    Was God's Kingdom already established in 70 AD ? - Preterism views

    Hi Breetai, I don't think I lied or spiritualized, at least not intentionally. The replies to this thread were a little more heady than I expected. I'm a lay person and have not researched the Bible enough, as you say. I have always felt, through my own interpretation of the Bible, that the 2nd...

    Yeshuasavedme, Hi, I'm having computer problems today - I will review your posts and get back to you as soon as I can - probably in a day or so. So much for technology, huh? Thank you for taking the time to post. Snashin

    Was God's Kingdom already established in 70 AD ? - Preterism views

    I can or I don't need to. It has the same effect either way. I choose to take it literally because I believe what the Bible says (insofar as the translations are accurate). Also see Acts 1:6-9 6So when they met together, they asked him, "Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom...
