"Allegorical" and "Spiritual" Hermeneutics

robycop3,

Scripture and history prove my position
1]there was a temple, holy place that was destroyed
2] the antichrist stood in it, before the stones were cast down
3] it was left desolate as predicted by jesus

4]Jesus , not the antichrist does the things in dan 9:24-27.
.make an end of sins, confirm a covenant after 3.5 yrs

 

Symbolism can be used represent those attributes of the literal.

Coming on a white horse can represent Jesus coming as Lord of lords and King of kings at His literal second coming.

Our view of eschatology is a function of classification(s) of the literal and symbolic representation of truth or the mixture thereof.

What strange bible version is that? the JW one?

 

Rouge is French for red, and when the French use Rouge on its own they usually mean (red) wine. So Mars may be made of wine like the moon is made of Cheese,

 

That is humour by the way,(or intended to be so,)

NASB, if I recall correctly.

 

You're missing mine.

 

Premillennialism fails because it contradicts explicit theological premises in the Epistles, not the least of which is the end of the temple, priesthood and the offerings.

The Spirit is unequivocal. As long as an earthly temple is standing, the testimony is that Christ did not make Atonement. Talk of your antichrist!

Instead of taking that to Revelation, some will make up answers like that the offerings will be memorials. LOL. Yeah, memorials of sin.

 

My latest email is entitled:
Back after popular demand: Free dispenser with Scott and Kleenex refills.

How best to free all you dispensers from the errors of your ways?

 

That was THEIR OWN FAULT, as they had some 8 months to flee. And, as I've said several times, that was part of the "days of vengeance" Jesus pronounced against the Jews. Please note that it was the Jews in or near Jerusalem who mordered most of the martyred prophets & other righteous martyrs, and it was that area the Romans hit the hardest.

 

When Daniel wrote, the verses weren't numbered. and "the prince" was the last person mentioned in V 26. You know the rules for the antecedents of pronouns.

 

While you're trying to be sarcastic, CAN YOU SAY WITH CERTAINTY that it's impossible for the rogue planet to happen, or for Jesus to descend upon a white horse? Please answer TRUTHFULLY.

 

Or it may not happen at all. I said it was just a theory of a possibility on my part. I don't know what physical agent God will use to bring on the plagues, but Scripture indicates most people won't attribute them to God. A rogue planet would be a ready-made excuse for the "man of sin" to use to exclude God from the mix.

 

Remember, the temple the Jews will build in Jerusalem won't REALLY be a "temple of God", as JESUS won't be worshipped there. But many people will view it as such.

 

I'll begin with my reply to John -

Roby, perhaps you can tell us what hermeneutical system you have used to give your interpretation of 2 Peter 3 in one short paragraph.

 

See what I mean?

 

If you read through the OT you will find that rule doesn't always apply, and anyway, the last in that verse was the people.

 

Don't they always?
