You seem to have overlooked the phrase "And in this way". In what way? The previous passages explain in what way "all Israel will be saved". Here is the context... Romans 9:6... Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel: Romans...

The Greek word "monogenes" (which means "single of its kind") is translated in most English Bibles as either "one and only" or "only begotten". So Jesus was the only time God was born ("begotten") as a human.

You may want to spend more time outside looking up at the vastness of the universe in order to maintain proper perspective on the depth of your knowledge. I also suggest you ponder on this a while... When all is said and done, there will be a group in Heaven that God ultimately determined would...

So are you saying you think John saw something like this... When he wrote this... "The shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. And they had hair as the hair of women...

So what do you think John saw when he says... "The shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions...

There seems to be two ways to take Revelation literally. 1.) John literally saw future events (like a news broadcast) and inaccurately described them the best way he could. In other words, John saw something like this... 2.) John accurately described what he literally saw, and what he saw...

Thanks for posting your dates! Those dates do affect your view of eschatology. For example... In order for there to be a future 7 year tribulation, Jesus had to be crucified in either 32 or 33 AD, and he had to be 35+ years old at the time. In other words, if Jesus died in either 30 or 31 AD...

Some of the dates I used are from the New Testament, whereas the Jews have tried to calculate the year of creation without them. Here is the Bible Chronology from Creation to the Battle of Qarqar. Those Bible dates would place creation in 3982 BC, whereas the Jews place creation in 3761 BC.

Around twenty years ago, I set out to link the dates in the Bible together in order to determine when Adam was created. However, the Bible does not link dates all the way from Adam to now, so you have to link to some secular historical date at some point. I chose the Battle of Qarqar since...

Perhaps the "bring hither" in Luke 19:27 has been taking place since 1948... "But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me."

What Pre-trib book are you quoting? Most Pre-trib authors say these both occur before the Tribulation... The Resurrection of all church age believers who have died (vss. 14-16). The Rapture of living believers, those remaining when He comes (vs. 17). Source: J. Hampton Keathley, III P.S. I...

Most Christians know that from any date in 448 BC to any date in 33 AD is between 479 and 481 years (not 483). Using a Date Duration Calculator you will see that from Dec 31, 448 BC to Jan 1, 33 AD is one day over 479 years, and from Jan 1, 448 BC to Dec 31, 33 AD is one day short of 481 years...

Can you clarify... Do you agree with me that Daniel's 70 weeks started in 458 BC? (as your 1st post suggests) Or do you think Daniel's 70 weeks started in 448 BC? (as your 2nd post suggests) P.S. I believe the first 69 weeks started in 458 BC and ended 483 years later at Jesus' baptism in...

The vast majority of Christians believe a prophetic "week" is equivalent to 7 years.

One problem with the Seventh Day Adventist view of prophecy is... Seventh Day Adventists believe "confirm the covenant" means "NOT share the gospel". In other words, where the Bible says... And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week. Seventh Day Adventists think it means... And...

The precise beginning and ending dates for many Bible prophecies are difficult to discern. For example, Bible scholars give several different starting and ending dates for the "seventy years" prophecy in Jeremiah 25:12. It is easy to see that the Babylonian captivity was about 70 years long, so...

The dates the Reformers suggested ranged from AD 533 to AD 800. I personally think it was between AD 756 (when the Pope first owned land) and AD 800 (when the Popes began crowning emperors). P.S. The Popes are unique in that they are both spiritual rulers and also temporal rulers. The Popes...

That sentence is correct. I believe "mine enemies" in Luke 19:27 is referring to "his citizens" in Luke 19:14. Do you agree? Luke 19:14... But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us. Luke 19:27... But those mine enemies, which...

I am surprised that you do not know this. But Pretribbers actually believe... That day, on which the sixty-nine weeks ended, was the fateful day on which the Lord Jesus rode into Jerusalem in fulfillment of the prophecy of Zechariah 9:9; when, for the first and only occasion in all His earthly...

Pretribbers normally claim that the 69th week ended precisely on the day Jesus rode into Jerusalem. Are you saying that you don't think the 70th week ends precisely when Jesus returns in Revelation 19:14? (Note: If the 70th week ends in Revelation 19:14, that would mean Revelation 19:15 onward...
