Amillenialism

Laying Joel's prophecy aside for a moment...

That's right, Jeremiah was inspired by the Holy Spirit, but like Peter said in the aforementioned passage, it was revealed to him that he was ministering to us, to us, to us, TO US. Not to themselves, to us unto whom the Gospel is preached.

Therefore the those promises are for us.

Chris, Why don't you can this type of argumentation? <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Why can't the dispensationalist take what they dish out? I've been called a liar (by you)and a heretic (by others). Why is it that when you have no argument, you dismiss the case against you?

Did you think I was going to disagree with this? What is this verse in 1 Peter about?? It is about the Messiah. It has nothing to do with this issue. That verse is a strong reason why I believe in the single meaning/authorial intent hermeneutic. It does not have anything to do with the removal of promises from those to whom they were given.

I said you were lying when you repeated something that had already been refuted on a number of occasions. I can take whatever you dish out. What I don't like is when arguments don't address issues and unfounded or refuted arguments continue to be propounded.

You should also know that I have dismissed nothing. I have addressed every argument put forth here. I have ignored nothing. I have consciously tried to stay away from ad hominem attacks and from issues that are not related to the discussion.

 

All of the Law and the Prophets are about the Messiah, (Matthew 5:17).

But pick a section of Jer 31 that you think is not about the Messiah (I can't find one) and we'll discuss that.

I am not sure that is what that verse says. I am pretty sure that not all of the law and prophets are about the Messiah per se. As someone said, "I am pretty sure some of those nails in the tabernacle are just there to hold it together."

 

Okay, then. Pick a section that does not apply to the church, and we'll discuss that.
