I thought this guy said he was going to categorize the doctrines in order of importance. I didn't see any of that in the videos under "series." Do I have to read the book for that?No. Perhaps this will help:

Yes, we can identify when His return is near, Scripture allows the signs-of-the-times!Yes, but we're informed of the signs of his coming, and we of all people must know. As I mentioned, "no one knows the day or the hour" was a cultural reference of the Feast of Trumpets, which falls on the first day of the seventh Hebrew lunar month, which starts with a new moon. We can know that's in autumn season, but no one can set a date on the calendar since the length of lunar cycle varies, and no one knows exactly which year.
Yes, Amillennialism is the most corrupted of the theories, considering it doesn't allow for a thousand-year reign of Christ and His Body, the Church at all!There are holes with amil.
It doesn't ?Yes, we can identify when His return is near, Scripture allows the signs-of-the-times!
Yes, Amillennialism is the most corrupted of the theories, considering it doesn't allow for a thousand-year reign of Christ and His Body, the Church at all!
It does, though. They just interpret it as a non-literal 1,000 years in which Christ's reign is spiritual through his Church. In the amill view, we are in the millennium right now. It actually makes a fair bit of sense.Yes, Amillennialism is the most corrupted of the theories, considering it doesn't allow for a thousand-year reign of Christ and His Body, the Church at all!
I'm not sure. I haven't gone through all his videos and the one I gave I watched quite some time ago. I know in another video he gave examples for each of the four categories. I did find this in his Triage playlist, which is relevant to this discussion:I thought this guy said he was going to categorize the doctrines in order of importance.

Why would I waste any time to study two strong, erroneous claims that have misled most Christians to this day? Many are given the impression that all prophecies were fulfilled at 70AD, Revelation is ancient history, everything is symbolic, as a result bible prophecies are rarely taught.Please do some study before making such strong, erroneous claims:
I have shown you some relevant verses, you want more, go study New Moon and the feast of trumpets before you dismiss them as irrelevant. Go check out the descriptions of the second coming and see if it’s accompanied with the sounding of trumpet.Where is evidence that supposed idiom?
That’s clear denial of Christ’s second coming. If we were living in the millennium right now, then Christ had never returned. You can’t have any millennial reign without the second coming because that’s the triggering event of the millennium. That makes zero sense.It does, though. They just interpret it as a non-literal 1,000 years in which Christ's reign is spiritual through his Church. In the amill view, we are in the millennium right now.

Willful ignorance is not something Christians should be satisfied with. Christians are interested in truth, which requires proper study. It’s all the worse to claim two differing opinions of interpretation of a specific doctrine are heresy and erroneous when one is willfully ignorant. You shouldn’t even be debating this issue.Why would I waste any time to study two strong, erroneous claims that have misled most Christians to this day?
Full preterism is relevant how?Many are given the impression that all prophecies were fulfilled at 70AD, Revelation is ancient history, everything is symbolic, as a result bible prophecies are rarely taught.
You gave some random verses which, I assume, are supposed to somehow show there is an idiom. But, they don’t.I have shown you some relevant verses, you want more, go study New Moon and the feast of trumpets before you dismiss them as irrelevant. Go check out the descriptions of the second coming and see if it’s accompanied with the sounding of trumpet.
No, it makes sense. As I clearly stated, Christ’s return is after the millennium. There is absolutely no denial of Christ’s second coming. But, if you don’t want to study, you can stay in your error.That’s clear denial of Christ’s second coming. If we were living in the millennium right now, then Christ had never returned.

It’s also worth noting the double standard that you expect me to “go study,” but you don’t want to, all the while teaching error about other positions you don’t understand.

Be careful in being so certain about things which are most often spoken of in figurative language. Too many are too certain about eschatalogical events that really are not that clear at all.
Proper study is study of truth, not falsehood. It's not just different opinions, but total delusion when you call this chaotic world, of which Satan is the prince of the air, the millennial kingdom.Willful ignorance is not something Christians should be satisfied with.

How is it not relevant since, according to you, we are "already living in the millennium"?Full preterism is relevant how?
Those are not random verses, you only dismiss them as random. The real double standard is that you expect me to go study heresies, I expect you to study biblical and Hebrew cultural references.You gave some random verses which, I assume, are supposed to somehow show there is an idiom. But, they don’t.

As Revelation clearly stated, Christ’s return is BEFORE the millennium, He returns at the end of chapter 19, the saints are resurrected and reign with him for a thousand years at the beginning of chapter 20. What I don't wanna study is your error of changing this order.No, it makes sense. As I clearly stated, Christ’s return is after the millennium. There is absolutely no denial of Christ’s second coming. But, if you don’t want to study, you can stay in your error.
It's not clear only because you don't read the OT. Nothing in Revelation is new, it's titled Revelation as a revelation of old mysteries.Be careful in being so certain about things which are most often spoken of in figurative language. Too many are too certain about eschatalogical events that really are not that clear at all.
You're conflating the millennial kingdom with New Jerusalem, aka new heaven and new earth. The millennial kingdom is still in the first heaven and earth, not the new. Millennial kingdom is the fulfilment of Is. 66, and according to the Lord himself, the first heaven and earth are still there until the kingdom is over in Rev. 20:7.Isiah 66
From new Moon new Sabbath
Yet revelation 21 :23 to 24
No need of the sun or moon as the Lord himself will be light .Kings shall see by the light of the city .
Ah noYou're conflating the millennial kingdom with New Jerusalem, aka new heaven and new earth. The millennial kingdom is still in the first heaven and earth, not the new. Millennial kingdom is the fulfilment of Is. 66, and according to the Lord himself, the first heaven and earth are still there until the kingdom is over in Rev. 20:7.
For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled. (Matt. 5:18)
Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. (Rev. 21:1)
So? That's obviously referring to the Lake of Fire.Ah no
That Isiah 66 mentions the dead enemies of Lord and the righteous seeing them in torment
The verses don't imply that .Israel to be saved then enter into the city where all flesh can worship in the mountain and with a long pause of deliverance .So? That's obviously referring to the Lake of Fire.
How not? You said the enemies will be tormented per Is. 66:24, that's exactly the situation in the Lake of Fire.The verses don't imply that .Israel to be saved then enter into the city where all flesh can worship in the mountain and with a long pause of deliverance .
That’s an exceptionally poor excuse for intellectual dishonesty. It’s also fallaciously begging the question.Proper study is study of truth, not falsehood.
That’s because you’re making certain uneducated assumptions about what the text states and about what amillennialism teaches.It's not just different opinions, but total delusion when you call this chaotic world, of which Satan is the prince of the air, the millennial kingdom.
Study what amillennialists teach, then we’ll talk. You’re also making an assumption about what I believe.How is it not relevant since, according to you, we are "already living in the millennium"?
Again, you’re basing your whole position and the claim that other positions are heresy on willful ignorance and uneducated assumptions. That’s a ridiculous, and ungodly, position to take.Those are not random verses, you only dismiss them as random. The real double standard is that you expect me to go study heresies, I expect you to study biblical and Hebrew cultural references.
Again, you’re making certain assumptions.As Revelation clearly stated, Christ’s return is BEFORE the millennium, He returns at the end of chapter 19, the saints are resurrected and reign with him for a thousand years at the beginning of chapter 20. What I don't wanna study is your error of changing this order.
No, it’s not nearly as clear as you think. But, that is what happens when one bases their position on assumptions and refuses to educate themselves on other legitimate positions.It's not clear only because you don't read the OT. Nothing in Revelation is new, it's titled Revelation as a revelation of old mysteries.
What question? You said Christians are insterested in truth, why would I search truth among falsehood, like searching the living among the dead? I call these positions heresies for what they are, the biggest red flag of any heresy is spiritualizing the text into something else.That’s an exceptionally poor excuse for intellectual dishonesty. It’s also fallaciously begging the question.
That’s because you’re making certain uneducated assumptions about what the text states and about what amillennialism teaches.
Why don't you go study premillennialism?Study what amillennialists teach, then we’ll talk. You’re also making an assumption about what I believe.
Those are not assumptions, those are biblical facts, Rev. 19:11, 20:4. Saints are reigning with Christ on earth, not in heaven.Again, you’re making certain assumptions.
Legitimate positions are built upon OT biblical and cultural references with exegetical approach. What you call "educate" is more like indoctrinate or propagandize.No, it’s not nearly as clear as you think. But, that is what happens when one bases their position on assumptions and refuses to educate themselves on other legitimate positions.
They are random. Where is the idiom? I asked you for evidence of this idiom, and you have yet to provide any. If it’s an idiom, it will be directly stated either in Scripture or in extra-biblical literature.
Then the Lord himself must've made an "uneducated assumption" since it contradicts the golden calf of your precious teaching that we're "already living in the kingdom."That’s because you’re making certain uneducated assumptions about what the text states and about what amillennialism teaches.
