Re: Revelations Not Foretelling the Future?

Hmm,Neo-x, YOU at least supplied some MEAT behind your idea here. THAT, at least, gives me something to think about. I am not sure that it really changes much though, because I can already see that revelation is centered around the last judgement and the end of the age leading up to it. I mean, if, ...

Re: Revelations Not Foretelling the Future?

And yes, it is possible to be YEC and be a beleiver, what I am saying is that it, first, causes you to bring disrepute on the name of Christ, by making Christians look like a bunch of ignorant fools who beleive something so very VERY thoroughly disproven by science that it is laughable that anyone ...

Re: Revelations Not Foretelling the Future?

Why do you say that Peter is here talking about what is in Revelations, specifically Rev 1:10? Because it's a rule of study I use. Use the Bible to interpret the Bible. I initially answered the question of this post to reply to Mariole's question. She didn't respond back so she must have understood...

Re: Chicken or Egg

Legatus, I'm still waiting for a proper answer from you. Without just-so story telling, evolutionary fairytales, and similar nonsense. I'll sum up:. So... if I don't respond to ALL of your very long post full of many different ideas which may mean an extremely long post if I cover all of them in de...

Re: Revelations Not Foretelling the Future?

Peter could have told us many things that we were not to be ignorant of. But the one thing he claims is for us to understand a comparison. 2Pet 3:8 is a double metaphor. A metaphor is a comparison using the words like or as. The word "AS" is used twice in the verse in the English KJV. Oth...

Re: Chicken or Egg

Well, let's put it this way. God may be behind evolution (if it happened). Or may not. The thing is, there is no way to prove the statement because it's unfalsifiable. Through the history, we've been discovering more and more about the world, and I believe it would be dangerous to rely our faith on...

Re: Something I desperately need to know...

Hey there new to God and science, but I'm going to get to the point quick. I want to know where I could go to learn more about science in general, what books, what things I need to learn. I can't go around trying to preach the word, saying there is a scientific fact behind God, and my only knowledg...

Re: Something I desperately need to know...

Hey Silverfang, I just want to say I understand where you are at. However, there are a lot of good sites that can help you understand science a lot better without having to be really good at science. I just found a site called "Science Against Evolution." This site tries to stay away from...

Re: Revelations Not Foretelling the Future?

Well after reading your post, it is probably best that I don't say much because we have different views on eschatology. I don't believe in the rapture theory whatsoever Leg. I believe Christ will eventually bring the kingdom of God to Earth and that no one is flying away anywhere. I think pretty mu...

Re: Revelations Not Foretelling the Future?

Leg, I think he is speaking of your claim that the sabbath was moved. There is certainly nothing in the scripture to indicate the 7th day sabbath was moved. I was actually speaking of "the lords day", and how it was used in Rev 1:10, and how it was not used for any 1000 year periods in th...

Re: Revelations Not Foretelling the Future?

Legatus, re: “ Last I heard, ‘the lords day’ was the name of the sabbath, which had moved from saturday to sunday, and thus changed it's name from sabbath to lords day. John had his vision on sunday, that is all.” Do you have any scripture to support those notions? http://www.blueletterbible.org/in...

Re: Revelations Not Foretelling the Future?

The Lord's day is a 1000 year long period of time when Jesus Christ the Lord returns to the earth" Uh, where is this stated, as such, in the bible, that "the lords day" must mean 1000 years? Last I heard, "the lords day" was the name of the sabbath, which had moved from sat...
