Will Duffy has done a great job stepping into Bob Enyart's shoes! Now, if I could just get those folks to move their whole operation to the Houston area!

That is the key question!

Why are you not citing the location of the passages you quote? This is the second time I've had to go look it up. Annoying! Mark 13:22–24 is Christ telling the Twelve about things that will happen to Israel not to the whole world. "The elect" in verse 22 is Israel and the warning was about...

True, but the point is that the two aren't mutually exclusive. Well, the easy answer there is in righteousness, but it isn't the only passage that suggest that we are to be like Christ. Here's a few others... Romans 8:29 For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of...

Let me state it in more explicit terms for you.... There are no verses that plainly mean that the real presence is true. If you think otherwise, you're delusional.

Are we intentionally trying to miss the point? You aren't a Jew, Lon. Your home will never be in the New Jerusalem. Sorry, that was unclear. The question I'm hoping someday to get the answer to is, "Why do you think that "Physical comes 'from' Spiritual, I think necessarily ontologically."...

These signs you are suggesting have been "seen" by every generation of believers for the last 2000 years and they almost always have been making the same error that you're making which is directly related to the fact that Jesus DID NOT tell us to watch, He told ISRAEL to watch. You are not a...

Yeah, except that there are no such proof-texts.

I don't understand this response. I did not use the phrase, "no one" in that post and the scripture passage is quoted without any commentary as to just how it is you are applying it or why. In any case, if Zechariah 12:2-3 hasn't already been fulfilled then it isn't going to be fulfilled before...

It is not an exaggeration to say the every single generation that has existed for the last 2000 years has "seen the signs", glorydaz and every single one of them has been wrong, mostly for the same reasons, by the way. It may well be but isn't a logical necessity. Now, if a BIG bunch of...

1 Corinthians 11:1 Imitate me, just as I also imitate Christ.

TRUE!!! Oh! So true!!

Quite so and I wouldn't ask you to. I did some digging and found a pdf of the book. I've posted just reasons 4-6 to give you a flavor of how the book goes.... REASON #4 AND #5 God uses the Seven Feasts of Israel to tie together the 69th and 70th week of Daniel. The 69th and 70th weeks of Daniel...

I don't think they're mutually exclusive. Christ also is our pattern.

What you see as "soon coming return(s)" is based on, defined by and seen through the lens of your doctrine. That's just the entire point here.

And yet you seem incapable of telling me which prophesies you are referring to.

I got that. I was just articulating the point in my own words. Agreed. Pentecost was just the next step in Israel's prophesied program. I wouldn't attempt to name it. I just know that we are sons of Abraham who was saved first by faith alone apart from circumcision (i.e. the law). Romans 4:16...

The first part of your essay addresses this to some degree but I've always thought that the question, "When did the church begin?" cannot be answered as asked. It's like asking, "What is the gospel?". The answers to these questions have to start by asking "Which church? or "Which gospel?" It...

It certainly seems to me like you're saying a lot more than what that teenager was communicating; something more fundamental about the nature of our existence where such concepts are taken far more literally than is called for and that approaches heresies such as panentheism far too closely.

Everything came from God and so yes, but Adam's physical body existed before his spirit. I don't see how any of that is even relevant. So, you're saying that the spiritual isn't physical. What a revelation! The streets of gold are in the New Jerusalem, not Heaven. Yes, God created it all. So...
