Featured The Apostle Peter on the Second Coming of Our LORD

Imminent=ready to take place= in 2000 years according to you.

Sorry you can't have it both ways. Either the return is still about 200 years out accordingly to YOUR dating or it could happen at any time, be Imminent.

So what is it Imminent or 200 years away by YOUR dates?

By God's time today!

 

Jesus said Matthew 25:13, "Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh."

We don't know the day nor the hour so it is imminent.

 

So are you going to recant what you said in post 77 about his coming being 200 years out?

Sorry I'm on my phone and can't quote that post as well as this one.

Never said it was two hundred years out. Simply pointing out the by the Jewish calender it could be.

Here is what I said,
"According to the Jewish calender we are in the year 5775, that would leave 225 years to reach 6000 and the Lord could come in 232 years, but the signs we are to look for are upon us, so as those of the early church I look for and love His appearing believing His return is imminent.

What year are we in? No one really knows, those early church fathers knew even less than we do. "

No where did I say I believed it would be 232 years, I said that it could be by the Jewish calender.

 

"According to the Jewish calender we are in the year 5775, that would leave 225 years to reach 6000 and the Lord could come in 232 years, but the signs we are to look for are upon us, so as those of the early church I look for and love His appearing believing His return is imminent.

Somebody needs a reading comprehension program and a dictionary to see what the Word Could means.

The pre-tirb view is very clear, the 7 year Trib ends and the 2nd coming occurs. Ushering in the 1000 year reign. So man has at least 1007 years of time left according to the Bible.

 

You are the one making the argument that man only has 6000 years by doing some major reading into the text of Peter. You are then the one that says that we are only in year 5775 by the Jewish Calendar. You are the one that said that there is 225 years until we hit the 6000 year mark and then you are the one that gave your self a 7 year window to make room for the tribulation. The only thing that can be concluded from all your statement and math is that the return/rapture is 200+ years out. Why do through all that math if that is not the point?


Let me play this game some more using your logic. According to Daniel there are 70 weeks. A week has 7 days so we know based on Peter that is actually 7000 years so that means there are 490 days or 490,000 years. I think I have made my point that when you start reading into the text and trying to find hidden codes you will end up in crazy territory.

 

I said all of that to show we can't know what year we actually in. The word could= "Used with hypothetical or conditional force" therefor my statements was not setting dates but hypothetical dates. Real easy if you pay attention instead of reading something in that is there.

 

"According to the Jewish calender we are in the year 5775, that would leave 225 years to reach 6000 and the Lord could come in 232 years, but the signs we are to look for are upon us, so as those of the early church I look for and love His appearing believing His return is imminent.

What year are we in? No one really knows, those early church fathers knew even less than we do. "

I said could for the 232 years and could as a hypthetical. 1007 is what we know man has plus what ever we have until the RAPTURE.

7 for the Tribulation period

1000 for the reign of Christ in His Kingdom, those are hard and fast in scripture.

 

That man only has 6000 + 1007 years is not hard and fast in Scripture. You have to read a lot into Peter to get the idea that Man only has 6000 years.

 

Your twist of what I said is above.

What I actually said with hypothetical word could.

Some commentaries I have read state Peter was showing that if it took 2000 years for Him to return it would still be but Yesterday that Christ died. I was taught the 7000 years of time for man.

We need only be looking for His return. But I still believe that the Bible bears out a close to 6000 year old earth and we will soon see the Snatching away. Leaving 1007 years of time left for man.

According to the Jewish calender we are in the year 5775, that would (insertion to clarify when you subtract a number from another number that would leave the answer) leave 225 years to reach 6000 and the Lord could come in 232 years, but the signs we are to look for are upon us, so as those of the early church I look for and love His appearing believing His return is imminent.

What year are we in? No one really knows, those early church fathers knew even less than we do.


The problem with you hypothetical of Daniels prophecy is that all but the last week has been fulfilled.

It was fulfilled over a 483 year period. Dividing 483 by 7 give you 69 thus 69 weeks has been fulfilled.
What was to happen in the 69th week, Messiah was to be cut off. Jesus was crucified in the 483rd year from the decree to rebuild the city just as Daniel prophesied.

The 70 weeks were actual 7 year periods of time. One has yet to be fulfilled.

 

You can try to cover yourself with the word COULD all you want, but you are teaching that man has 6000 year before the Rapture. Why else would you go through all the math to try to prove this theory?

I know what the 70 weeks are. I was just showing how abusred it is to try to prove that man only has 6000 years based on twisting Peter and Genesis together. And yet you keep insisting on reading the 6000 years into Peters Letter

 

Lets look at your original statement that started us down this trail

You made the claim that man only has 6000 years before for the Rapture.
That statement is in direct contradiction to the imminent return of Christ. There is no COULD in this quote. There is no Hypothetical in this quote. But a clear statement that you believe that God has only given man 6000 years before the Rapture.

 

Again your twist above
my words "a close to 6000 year old earth and we will soon see the Snatching away. Leaving 1007 years of time left for man."

Evidently you two don't speak southern language.

 

I quoted you directly from your post 35

You are making the claim that man has 6000 years before the rapture. And that man will only be on this earth 7000 years total. There is no "about", or "around", or "could be" or anything like that in this statement.

 

But you haven't been questioning that either one of you go back and look at what you are questioning. I said there was 7000 years of time for mankind given by God and there is. Nearly 6000 has been accomplished how much we don't know could be tomorrow could be 232 if the Jewish calender is correct. But we don't know how many years are left we do know there is at least 1007 years left.

For instance blessed wife you said that I said there was 200 years left and I didn't, I said could be 232, but I also qualified it. So get right what you are challenging and we wouldn't have wasted postings.

What we do know is that Christ return is imminent.
