    "Do not interpretations belong to God?" #1, Amillennialism: A Word Direct From The Scriptures.

    Lacking consistency and foresight just like your God. What a surprise. You and your equivocations are just like this false god you have created (Psalm 115:8). Psalm 115:8 KJV They that make them are like unto them; so is every one that trusteth in them. Dispensational, Premillennial Deity...

    Anthropomorphic Language

    Yet even Paul says flesh and blood cannot accept or inherit or be given the kingdom of God (1 Cor 15:50-51). Also, do you have a response as to how this stance of yours makes God's covenant-keeping ability (immutability) look whimsical? Does God really lack foresight and decided to cancel the...

    "Do not interpretations belong to God?" #1, Amillennialism: A Word Direct From The Scriptures.

    Nope. The Last enemy that shall be destroyed is death (1 Cor. 15:24-28). Do you believe this foe has been deatroyed? Are you claiming that Christians are presently immortal? If you don't believe death has been destroyed, Psalm 110:1 hasn't been fulfilled, and when all of Christ's foes are made...

    Anthropomorphic Language

    If you're claiming that God can cancel or change His oft-repeated, oath-bound covenants (specifically the Abrahamic and Davidic, not the Sinaitic, since it is inherently conditional: "if ye...then I will"), I'll have to disagree. What does that mean God will do to the Covenants He has made to...

    "Do not interpretations belong to God?" #1, Amillennialism: A Word Direct From The Scriptures.

    Can mods boot people for being delusional and self-absorbed? What about people who post on here who can't even remember what they said or follow the conversation? Maybe someone reading this convo could enlighten me.

    Is Jesus Going to be Demoted from His Heavenly Throne to a Throne here on Earth? No, There Will Be No Earthly Throne of Jesus.

    Wrong. She was already a part of the house of David before she met Joseph. Unless you believe Joseph had two fathers, Heli and Jacob? "The names of women were not usually included in Hebrew genealogy. Likewise, women and children were not named in United States census records until 1850 unless...

    Is Jesus Going to be Demoted from His Heavenly Throne to a Throne here on Earth? No, There Will Be No Earthly Throne of Jesus.

    Thanks for the easy win then. :Roflmao Have you figured out what the terms "long-winded" and "circumlocution" mean yet?

    "And if its meaning be clear, we are not to, give it some secondary reference, as if it were spoken figuratively." - Augustine, On Christian Doctrine Book 3, Ch. 11 Even Augustine acknowledges that scripture should be taken literally when it is self evident. And Amillennial scholars admit...

    "Do not interpretations belong to God?" #1, Amillennialism: A Word Direct From The Scriptures.

    It got Orthodoxy for John of Damascus in the 7th century: "The Deity, then, is quite unchangeable and invariable. For all things which are not in our hands He hath predetermined by His foreknowledge, each in its own proper and peculiar time and place. And accordingly the Father judgeth no one...

    Is Jesus Going to be Demoted from His Heavenly Throne to a Throne here on Earth? No, There Will Be No Earthly Throne of Jesus.

    Did you know that the gnostics believed Jesus was only a non-physical being, how does your (and @kyredneck )'s view differ from this? Hippolytus: "Now a person might say that these men, and those who hold a different opinion, are yet near neighbours, being involved in like error. For those...

    "Do not interpretations belong to God?" #1, Amillennialism: A Word Direct From The Scriptures.

    Well at least it's not heretical... Hippolytus: "For, in the view of apostles and prophets and teachers, the mystery of the divine incarnation has been distinguished as having two points of contemplation natural to it, distinct in all things, inasmuch as on the one hand it is the subsistence...

    "Do not interpretations belong to God?" #1, Amillennialism: A Word Direct From The Scriptures.

    In this verse (Acts 2:34-35), David is claiming that Jesus (David's Lord) would sit on the LORD's right hand, on His throne with Him, in heaven (Psalm 103:19, etc.), until the LORD makes Jesus' foes a footstool. You have acknowledged that the Father's throne which Jesus is sitting on, is...

    "Do not interpretations belong to God?" #1, Amillennialism: A Word Direct From The Scriptures.

    What is funny is that at the end of this post you claim that there is a distinction between Jesus' throne and the Father's throne. It is curious to watch you interpret a passage and then claim your interpretation is the only valid one and that your interpretation is inspired. All that Peter is...

    Is Jesus Going to be Demoted from His Heavenly Throne to a Throne here on Earth? No, There Will Be No Earthly Throne of Jesus.

    So you believe the angel, Mary and Zechariah were deceived (Luke 1)? The angel told Mary that the earthly child born to her would be given the throne of David. Mary and Zechariah believed the Abrahamic and Davidic covenants were in consideration upon the coming of the Messiah to planet earth. If...

    Is Jesus Going to be Demoted from His Heavenly Throne to a Throne here on Earth? No, There Will Be No Earthly Throne of Jesus.

    Also, if there is no earthly throne of Jesus, why do we read that the earthly kingdoms bring their gifts, their splendor, glory and honour, to the new Jerusalem (Rev. 21:24-26)?

    Is Jesus Going to be Demoted from His Heavenly Throne to a Throne here on Earth? No, There Will Be No Earthly Throne of Jesus.

    Hendriksen believes that the coveted throne of Christ is earthly: "Throughout this entire gospel age-the forty-two months, which we have already discussed-the governments of this world place themselves on the throne , arrogate to themselves the authority that belongs to God (think of the...

    Is Jesus Going to be Demoted from His Heavenly Throne to a Throne here on Earth? No, There Will Be No Earthly Throne of Jesus.

    Even William Hendriksen believes in a distinction between the throne Jesus (the Lamb) sits on in the new heaven and earth (Rev 22:1), and the throne He sat on prior. "The seven lamps and the sea of glass are also before the throne (4:5, 6). The Lamb (L) stands between the throne and the living...

    Is Jesus Going to be Demoted from His Heavenly Throne to a Throne here on Earth? No, There Will Be No Earthly Throne of Jesus.

    William Hendriksen believed Christ would get off His throne to dine with the believer. "Here, in the expression, 'if any man . . . open the door,' [Rev. 3:20-22] the reference is to conversion, to repentance and faith in Christ, as the context clearly indicates. The Lord enters (John 14:23)...
