    [bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse], i really HAVE discovered the antichrist! (and this time it really is him)

    Just read Hebrews chapter 8 with particular emphasis on verses 3-4 and 13. 3 For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is of necessity that this man have somewhat also to offer. 4 For if he(Jesus) were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there...

    Questions about preterism

    If I may add just a little, the whole of revelation was to be sent to the seven churchs and that they are not seperate letters but seperate admonishments within the whole just like we have it today. See chapter 1. There is no condition to 1.1, in fact it says "must shortly come to pass" which...

    Nicene Creed

    Fair enough, we should all try our best to answer with "meekness and kindness" despite our temptation to do otherwise. . I believe that it does, and these commentaries and studies, found at Crosswalk.com with the possible exception of the Geneva Study Bible, would agree with me on that point...

    Nicene Creed

    Let me rephrase the question. The dead come out of the sea, out of death, and out of hades. Since only death and hades are cast into the lake of fire, explain who is in the sea, who is in death and who is in hades?

    Nicene Creed

    Your forgetting the only futurist proof text, aren't you? 2 Peter 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The 1000 years is a reign with the Lord, is it not? And, since you take Rev 20 to...

    Nicene Creed

    [ What better description of the nature of God than the Law of God? My real concern with Creeds, is that one can read and memorize, believe they are the essentials and sign their name at the bottom and still have no clue as to what it means to be born again. Therefore you end up with...

    Nicene Creed

    For those of you who hold to the Creeds as the essential guide to the Christian Faith, and inspired by the Holy Spirit, you may do well to consider this: 1. The Creeds don't disallow an open homosexual to be ordained Bishop of the Episcopal Church. As a matter of fact, the Metropolitan...

    Nicene Creed

    He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen. Since we know from Luke, that all Scripture was fullfilled with the destruction of Jerusalem, it would be...

    Nicene Creed

    I believe that if the creedilists just stuck to the Biblical terms used ie, natural body or spiritual body, then the argument would be made a lot clearer. But to say physical seems nonsensical to me. After all, are they saying that "we shall all be changed" from physical(which we are now) to...

    Abomination of desolation

    The following phrases are found in the Bible. the wrath of the Lord... the Lord's wrath... the anger of the Lord.... the Lord's anger... the vengeance of the Lord... the Lord's vengeance the day of the Lord... the Lord's day... Nowhere in the Bible: the Lord's day =...

    How I came to embrace Preterism.

    Chapter 24 and 25 are the same conversation and I was pointing out that these two parables show Christ comes back to the same generation that he left. So what is your reason the Thessalonians were told to patiently wait for Christ? Exactly why he's going to keep the promises he made to...

    How I came to embrace Preterism.

    Hi Nikolai, In both parables in Chap 25 you will also notice that the Bridegroom and the Master of the household both come back to the same people they left, not to their children or childrens children etc. Read what Jesus tells Caiaiphus in Matthew 26:64 Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast...

    Abomination of desolation

    Your welcome. It just goes to show how important it is to do the research ourselves on something we've read or heard, as it may or may not be true. Ed

    Preterism and the Holy Spirit

    First of all, there can be no greater tribulation than to have Christ Himself coming in the clouds of Glory with wrath and judge you, as He told Caiaphus the high priest He would do. Compare the kind of language used in Revelation with Old Testament writings. 2 Samuel 22:8-17 Job 9:5-7...

    Abomination of desolation

    You need to be careful here. The Bible says that out of the mouth of 2 or 3 witnesses, let every word be established. There is not even 1 eyewitness concerning this statement. Hardly what you'd want to hang your Biblical doctrines on, would it? As to the "wailing wall", perhaps it would be...

    Anti-Christ shows up ..Before Christ comes ?

    That seems clear to me also, as do the following: The first letter to the Thessalonians was written to prepare them for the coming of the Lord. The second Letter was to assure them that the Lord had not yet come, but to wait patiently for His coming. You will also notice that the...

    Preterism

    He's not building a palace here, but merely planting tents. It's like say he plants the flags of his country. 11:45 And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.

    Do you hope that the endtimes are near?

    Pastor NB, I am talking about the KJV, NKJV, NIV, NAS, YOUNGS LITERAL TRANSLATION, etc., Are you saying these are the writings of uninspired men? If so, then where do you obtain the inspired writings? Please let me know would you? Ed
