"Dispie/dispy" = Dispensationalist aka, people who recognize that there are different dispensations (greek: oikonomia) in the Bible

Do right, and risk the consequences!

I see what you're saying. But I still disagree that it would be "cherry picking." If a prophecy fails, and through its failure, a people turns to God, would that not be better, regardless of who's doctrine is vindicated?

Not at all. Not every prophecy deals with the end times. The prophecy of the last week of 70 weeks is dealing with the end times. What Jesus said deals specifically with the end times. Not at all. It's not.

That was directed at B57. Not you. He's not one to answer challenges to his position, so I was giving him a reminder of that.

Apologies for the mistake. Except it's not a verse. It's literally just "Remember, don't commit adultery." Would you be pleased that she has a reminder of the law "do not commit adultery" in her visor? Would you not think that she's struggling with remaining faithful to you? (Please note...

Which is more important to God? Love or prophecy? I say love of His people is more important to God, than is His commitment to a prophecy. Paul says: Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.And though I have...

The 70 weeks was for the arrival of Christ. It's already happened, except for the final week, which is for the events described in Revelation. That final week can be shortened (the others cannot as they're in the past). And in fact, Jesus says they WILL be shortened, not just can be...

Adaptation of an organism to its environment is well within its design spec. Here's the problem: * Blyth Institute Research on Mutation By Design: Bob Enyart interviews Jonathan Bartlett, the layman who founded the Blyth Institute (.org) after spending years researching the nature of...

It's your husband's (correct me if I'm wrong, but I was under the impression you're a lady) handwriting. A note he left for himself.

Was going to ask you this earlier... If you asked your spouse to borrow their car, and then pull down the visor to find the keys, but instead find a note that says, "Remember, don't commit adultery," would you be pleased by that? Or would you feel saddened, perhaps horrified?

Posts 3, 8, 10, 12 did you understand them?

Here's another: I will make you a great nation; I will bless you And make your name great; And you shall be a blessing.I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” - Genesis 12:2-3...

Indeed, to both of you.

Yes, God can and did use Israel's rebellion. But they rebelled nonetheless, and did NOT become His spokes-nation to the Gentiles as He wanted them to be.

That's something I don't get. Why speak a language that no one in the vicinity can understand, including, sometimes, the very person reading/speaking it? It just makes it seem like you're hiding something.

Except it wasn't. Israel never became the spokes-nation God wanted her to be. Instead, we have a single Apostle going to all the world while the Twelve sat largely in Jerusalem. You can't record (truthfully) what never happened in the first place.

Today, sure. But not prior to Acts 9. Yes, it consisted of individuals, but God had a corporate relationship with her, not the individuals she consisted of. Wrong. Israel was to be a spokes-nation to the world, teaching the world about Him.

You're evading. The fact of the matter is that the finches changed in 17 years. Not 2.3 million. Seems completely irrelevant to the discussion at hand.

It seems you missed this:
