Re: Daniels' Seventy Sevens

Anochria asked : Does what I'm saying help make sense why the passage ought to be interpreted as 70 x 7 years? - and - Surely you'd at least admit that some interpretations of this passage are demonstrably better than others, right? Yes and yes. Your last explanation here along with your first post...

Re: Dealing with Abortion Approving Clergy

My inadequately brief responses: My question for Steve and others today is, what does scripture, like Exodus 20:13, really mean when talking about killing or taking a life? The intentional, unjust killing of another human life. In a word: murder. How can we argue for PRO-LIFE by using the scriptures...

Re: Daniels' Seventy Sevens

My perspective: Everyone, I think, has decided that a week isn't really a week. Then it might as well be 7 months, 7 years, a generation, or just a relatively-short-time. All the educated guesses (as they seem to me) about when the 70 weeks starts and ends and how many days should be in a year and h...

Re: Hell and Hearts

Those quotes are out there, I'd say. They USED to say the righteous would rejoice at the fate of the wicked But NOW they say the righteous will either have such memories erased or at most be content about it They USED to say that the wicked would be repentant in hell, but be shown no mercy from God ...

Re: Matthew 24 Inconsistent With Preterism

Full preterism tests my limits of credulity but no more than the futurist/dispensational view does. As a tentative partial preterist, I would say that "coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory" is a statement about his coming in judgement, similar to the OT passages Steve quoted. Al...

Re: Jesus' words Only??

I ran across a similar site a couple of weeks ago. (I can't find the site again. Was something about Paul vs. Jesus, I think.) I didn't know it was a "movement". I remember wondering if it was a sort of mock site - like an atheist posing as a Christian or something - because he seemed more focused o...

Re: Alcohol & Welfare Programs: Topics on today's show

I have read all posts in this thread and I am a bit confused. It seems perfectly clear that God wants me to be both as generous and as wise as I can be with my resources (e.g., time/money). The verses quoted in this thread make both obligations clear, I think. jesusrules777, I don't know if you'd ag...
