Where do you fit ?

[mlepfitjw]

Believe we are living in the age of fulfillment. A believer that all prophecy has been fulfilled. Not associated with full pretrist however you spell it.

Do you want to be under the partial preterist category ? Or none of the categories at this time?

I was put down for Pre-Mil, what's that mean?

It means that following Jesus's return, there will be a 1000 year reign of Jesus here on this earth. Do you want me to keep you under that category or take you off ? This is all voluntary, and no judgment either way.

It's fine. I believe that. I read some posts about this position tying it to believing in some odd theology about Israeli supremacy or something. So long as it is only "following Jesus's return, there will be a 1000 year reign of Jesus here on this earth.", that's fine.

I don't want this thread to get into big arguments - about anything. Just however you feel about where you see yourself fitting.

Since the categories are separated into what they mean, that's fair.

The idea of not being categorized is a great one. Glad to share! Douggg, I am not associated with anything preterism.

Okay, got it.

Grand experiment.

Because there are so many posters here, which it is sometimes hard to keep track of each persons fundamental position(s), especially when discussing. I am going to try on a voluntary basis, for each of you to fit yourself under each of these categories. Yourself only and not what you think someone else is.

In your post, please keep it simple by saying....for example.... furturist, pre-trib
That's all I need. Thanks.

Make a post, and I will add your screen-name alphabetically in each category. If there are some categories I left out - let me know.

Wow. I don't even know what some of those things are. And I've been a follower for some 45 years.
Here is what I believe.
I take the Bible as a child, with no agenda. I believe what God says in it without having to use fuzzy math to make it fir my system.
We would be wise to simply start reading, s l o w l y . Not through a year, slow a verse or two at a time. And let the Maker teach us. and not our religious leaders.
Yes, true, the bad religious leader will pay for telling us lies, but guess what, we the people of God will pay too. Why? Because the truth was before us and inside us.

Okay, TexFire316, I won't put you under any those categories. Thanks for posting.

I don't fit neatly within most of these the presets. I can say without qualifier that I am partial-preterist and monergist. Postamillennial : I believe the gospel will eventually spread over the whole world until most, but not all, believe in a manner consistent with the "dominion mandate" and the "great commission" so I guess I'd qualify as a small-d dominionist without the political agenda. Theonomist without the Reconstructionism. Covenant but not Replacement. Annihilationist, but with room for a protracted period of suffering before the cessation of existence.

Feel free to list that as you like.

I need a translator to even know what you wrote....

can you do it like this...

I'm going to have to do some more reading. That one article contrasted New Covenant Theology with Covenant Theology. Now I'm more confused....

It is a pretzel.

What is mid trib? The trib is 3.5 years. Is that at the 21 month mark? There is no break in the Great Tribulation. It is 3.5 years. 21 months is about 1 year 9 months.
