There was only 8 people left after the flood. how will there be 144000 after the great tribulation?

8 is a percenatage? @JLB ? really the bible says ONLY 8 souls survived.
I don't see god stopping the flood for the swimmers to repent while they gasped for air.
The phrase "such as was not since the beginning of the world...." and similar phrases are used several times in scripture. This is called "hyperbolic language", and if taken "literally", causes many similar scriptures to contradict eachother.
Thanks, more later.
So the temple being destroyed by (ROME?) would be hyperbolic................. got it...........
Mat 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
So the sun darkened for days, the stars fall from heaven and the heavens are shaken is not recorded anywhere in History because it is Hyperbolic just like the temple you claim Rome destroyed?
That generation is all Hyperbolic............................ OR...................... Just what you want to pick and Choose as Hyperbolic?
Which is it Hope IN Glory? What you choose, or you going to provide that recorded historical information I asked for? Jesus did not say all that if it was not a major event for men looking up have their hearts fail them over a Hyperbolic event???? Seriously??? You want me to believe that?
Air tight documents Brother............. You claim you have Rome destroying the temple now show me where Men looked up and their hearts failed?
Isa 13:6 Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.
Isa 13:7 Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man's heart shall melt:
Luk_21:26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
Isa 13:8 And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at another; their faces shall be as flames.
Isa 13:9 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.
Luk 21:35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
Isa 13:10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.
So I have to assume at this point that the events mentioned in Isa are not connected to Luke 21 or Matt 24 even though they line up perfectly and the 6th seal released.
In Isa it is the Lord Almighty that does this..................... Not the Roman Army by which I have no scripture yet ........ but it's historic fact....... right. got it.
Then it's all hyperbolic.....................?????????????????????????????
Hope in Glory, Brother.................. I have been in the Word of God for 14 years, every day I have read my Word. I don't know everything but .............. Isa can't be Luke 21....... Unless the Roman army is the Almighty.............. I know God used the Roman army to destroy the sinners off the earth. Right? Cmon brother......... then it's all Hyperbolic?
Wow........... You can't provide the History, I have no evidence that (This Generation) has come to pass. I give you the benefit of Doubt because I like a lot of things you have taught, but now the evidence I want is "Hyperbolic" How convenient. Now I am comparing the day of the Lord where the Roman army destroyed the sinners off the earth, do we have historical evidence that Rome was sent by the Almighty to destroy sinners? Don't bother I know we don't.............
The Almighty sent Rome to destroy His temple, that has to be it.
Air Tight means there can't be any possible argument against it. I feel a big draft here.
Blessings to you..
Mike.
'however, I want Hope in Glory to think!!! think!!! think!!! about what He is telling us.
Thats just it, Brother.
It's only cut and paste the doctrines of Preterism with him.
Is that the issue? We are dealing with a defense of a doctrine called Preterism?
Do you know what Preterism teaches?
that is ok but well I could argue that only small percentage of men will be saved. it all depends on how one says it. but 8 out of a million is nearly wiping out a species!8 is a percenatage? @JLB ? really the bible says ONLY 8 souls survived.
8 is what percentage of how many people that were left.
To put it another way -
8 represents what percentage of how many people that were left?

No I don't brother. Hope IN Glory said things at the start like the Kingdom of God is here. I believe that, you know why I believe that. I did not fully understand he was slamming a set doctrine on me though. To be honest, It is new to me, and I thought I have heard everything. So, I am learning here but I was not fighting his Doctrine as I did not even know, I was questioning His use of History and scriptures. When he said the earth shaking, and the stars vanishing was Hyperbole that is what threw a wrench into the works for me so to speak.
So I am sorry. I am really ignorant here of this Doctrine. I was just trying to follow along and was hoping to contribute in some way.
God bless!!!

Preterism teaches that all scripture has been fulfilled, which includes -
The Second Coming of Christ.
The resurrection and rapture.
The white throne judgement.
Satan has been bound.
We are living in the milliniel kingdom now.
The new heavens and new earth are here.
The new Jerusalem has come down.
To name a few.
That's what they teach, and that is what you are dealing with.
Full preterism teaches , all
eschatological prophecy has come to pass, the Great White Throne Judgment,
including the resurrection, the destruction of satan, and the Second Coming of
Christ. This view is not a part of Cfnets Statement of Faith. Cfnet holds the
view full preterism is heresy.

By the time Noah shut the door there were much less that 100,00 real humans left, as they were being wiped out by the giants.

Pretersim like most every thing else has degrees of variations etc. I am surprised that JLB would say the above when he has been told over and over it is not so. Orthodox pretersim believers like other Christians await the return of Christ. They believe the Great White Throne judgment is coming. and a few other things... many different folks of many denominations believe His kingdom is now many believe it is not... Ask "hope of Glory' what he believes .
Full preterest on the other hand fit the words of this 'sticky"

where do you get the 100,000 humans,. the Talmud , the bible?
Preterism teaches that all scripture has been fulfilled, which includes -
All the scripture as in "ALL"?
Is this what Hope in Glory believes? That all of it has come to pass?
Satan is not doing a very good job of being bound, look around.
Hope in Glory really believes this? This is what we have been discussing?
Oh my gosh. I feel dumb for even posting on this. I thought we were just trying to take that Generation part and get it sorted.

Being serious to get a reaction? Wow........... nice, anyway I'll overlook that comment.
What are we talking about here, What JBL said or the watered down versions?
Rebba I believe the Kingdom of God is now and operating on earth. Jesus said it was, and connected it to casting out devils. They will be done on earth as it is in heaven the whole chapt of Matt 6 was about Thy Kingdom Come, they will be done ........... On Earth as it is in Heaven. God's way of doing things, His operation and will are tied up in the Kingdom of God. That is why some of what Hope IN Glory was saying made sense to me.
However, Scotch watered down is still going to taste Like scotch. I had no idea people believed it all came to pass already, and I don't know what anyone believes now but JBL.
I don't need any reaction Rebba. I am dropping out of the thread.
