"final antichrist." doesn't appear in the scriptures. Have you never heard the saying "The king is dead, long live the king." [
That is correct. "Final antichrist" is my own term, based on the fact that John told of many antichrists, but of one yet to come.

It ought to bother all of us. Remember the old ditty, "Only one life, shall soon be past, only what's done for Christ will last."

True.

I have no idea what you have done.

Not the best things.

I don't recall anyone suggesting you do so. All I posted was some things about my uncle. I never mentioned you. But on that subject, I quit my job and started seminary when I was 30 years old, with a wife and kids and everything. I worked full time and went to school full time. My wife also worked full time. It was a sacrifice on both of our parts. After I completed that part of my education my wife went back to school and received her Ed.D. when she was 50 years old.

I really wish I could just do that, But convince my wife and take up a collection for me :Roflmao:Roflmao:Roflmao:Roflmao:Roflmao

No, but you can determine to continue your education now, going forward. I got my last degree when I was 55. It's never too late to learn.

Im still young true. Only God knows my future.

I'm sorry, but that is just a personal attack. Nobody has said they are in awe of anyone because of "a bunch of letters by their name." I made it clear to an unbiased reader that the man's lifetime of service to Christ was what I was in awe of. His willingness to sacrifice. He was 34 with a wife and 2 kids when he finally received his Ph.D. from Harvard.

Don't be intimidated because people have chosen a more difficult educational or service path than you. God uses all different kinds of people in His service.

But try not to denigrate those who have chosen the path less traveled. :)

I know, I need to grow up sometimes. I get intimidated by people who actually did something. I don't know why, its just me I guess. Maybe because I really never met anyone who has.

Sure I can discredit them. As unbelievers, they do not have the Holy Spirit within them, so therefore they cannot experience the illuminating work of the Holy Spirit. I don't trust any Jewish interpreters who are not born again.

I have to disagree. I believe they can be of value, in interpreting the language.

In interpreting the language, yes. My Hebrew teacher got his doctorate at a Jewish school, Dropsy. However, when it comes to anything spiritual, they will be wrong. And when it comes to anything prophetic, they follow Philo in allegorical interpretation, so they will be wrong.

I believe they interpret Daniel 9 correct though. Thats not allegorical.

Vicar of Christ = Antichrist, yes they don't recognise him. Neither do most Christians these days, unlike those before 1800.

I cannot remember where I read it but whoever it was, said the rabbis forbade looking into the prophecy of seven weeks to determine the time.
