Something i have noticed around here the general rudeness of many who post in here.... Seems those of the orthodox preterest view are not rudely posting else where.
To make peace do we have to keep members in little boxes or can we behave like Christians? Do we really only want to talk with those who agree, the good ol yes man thing or do we want to be asked, challenged to dig deeper in the Word?
From where i read, those who (IMO) show the attitude of "watch me get this thread closed" might find out differently. Admin
 
Though the word "antichrist" (Greek antikhristos) is used only on the Epistles of John, the similar word "Pseudochrist" (Greek pseudokhristos) or "false Messiah" is used by Jesus in the gospels:[8]
 
Eugene you may notice a number of deletions the point i was trying to make i did not get across... Any thing i view as snarky or rude ETC will be deleted and or warning points issued ...

I do do that. Archaeology is proving the bible. Absolutely we tie them together. But I do feel that because the temple was destroyed, doesn't emphatically mean that there will not be a third temple. We have to be careful which archaeology and science that we tie to scripture, lest we be in error. I can not wrap my mind around, that the temple was destroyed in 70 AD meaning that was it, no third temple. Sure, Jesus did away with sacrifices, but that doesn't mean that mankind couldn't mistakenly start it up again! Does not the anti-christ supposed to go into the temple and declare himself to be God? There has to be a temple for that.

They're ready to build a temple. They have building materials on hand and are waiting. Now, the have the Ark of the Covenant also. It's just that dome of the rock thing that is in the way. Perhaps the coming blood moons will somehow make it possible for it (to fall?) to the temple to be rebuilt.

When did they find the Ark of the Covenant?

The last that I read on Ron Wyatt's site was date 2006. They were excavating down from inside the city wall of Jerusalem. And an article from an Israel newspaper about what they had found so far. But there was nothing after that.
They have had building supplies for rebuilding the temple from as far back as at least the 1970's. I remember that was the talk.

And the mod cries not fair not fair .... how can the line be held while busting up.... ?:wall

Deborah13 i know things like this are a bit embarrassing, here it is any way Thank you for the way you post, saying your piece, having some fun being kind, and holding to Christian principles. :sohappy
 
Then if I am understanding you correctly, one of the following categories is gone forever. Is it Christians?
  1. genetic faithful Jews who fear God(meek - good figs)
  2. genetic unfaithful Jews who don't fear God(zealots - bad figs)
  3. faithful Christians
Group #2 is no longer to be considered of God's people. Faith, not genes, differentiate God's people.
 
So it's an analogy now? Nah. I don't buy that. Besides, I'm pretty sure that I read somewhere that the time of Jacobs trouble will take 2/3 Jews. That didn't happen yet, not even in WWII.
Be specific. Generalizations are what feed sloppy interpretation.

I'm beginning to think I will find a lot of use for this comment of yours. :)
You miss the point again. :hips
If someone is going to reject an answer based on some vague notion that they read something somewhere, then it would be courteous to identify what authority they are appealing to so that the exact wording and context can be examined. I feel under no obligation to assume what motivates the belief of others.

If you want to challenge something I post, then explain your concern so I can see exactly where you are having trouble that I may address that area specifically.
 
The reason I mention this again is because I want to ask where in scripture can it be found that the Apostle John wrote Revelation after AD 70? Well, it doesn't.

But within the scripture itself there is some evidence that it may have been written before AD 70.

Rev 17:10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.

I believe,
This verse is referring to seven kings, who are emperors of Rome. Five have fallen, one is, and the other has yet to come. This means that five have died. The sixth is currently reigning. The seventh is not yet ruling.

Claudius was the fifth emperor of Rome, and he died in AD 54. Nero was the sixth emperor, and he reigned from AD 54-68. This suggests that the book of Revelation was written during his Nero’s reign.

Thank you, Reba. It's nice of you to say so. :nod

Miss the point? I seem to disagree with most of your doctrine, and in your response you cite "Group #2 is no longer to be considered of God's people." Maybe I'm wrong, but when were "genetic unfaithful Jews who don't fear God(zealots - bad figs)" ever considered God's people? Possibly referencing a scripture would help.

The second illustration is that "Jerusalem is consistently identified as Babylon all through Revelation. Their judgments share similar characteristics." Again scripture in correct context might substantiate your statement. I will discontinue using your statement "Be specific. Generalizations are what feed sloppy interpretation."
 
Edited .....Failed attempt to make a point


Some of us believe that Paul was referring to the Temple In Jerusalem that is referred to in Daniel 9:27.

A Temple that is built after the destruction of Daniel 9:26.

Amen.

I don't that Babylon is referenced as Jerusalem anywhere in scripture.
