1 | First Century Second Coming? | John 5:19 | Morant61 | 128181 | ||
Greetings Xerxes! You have just proven my point my friend! Everything is so subjective. You count some who were not actually Emperors, but ignore others who actually were to arrive at the answer you have already determined. The same thing with the numbering system for the mark. Why add? Why not subtract, multiply, or even divide? Why use the Hebrew numbering (misspelled at that) of a Greek transliteration based upon a Latin word? :-) We can make anything fit if we can follow any procedure we choose! That is why I simply don't put any faith in these elaborate numbering schemes. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

2 | First Century Second Coming? | John 5:19 | Stultis the Fool | 128186 | ||
Morant61... I would like to point out that there is nothing more "subjective" than trying to interperate the future! I will add that the point Xerxes makes is that based on various evidence, it must be accepted that a preterist view is possible. Wether we choose to accept it, deny it, or remain undecided is really irrelavant to the point at hand. I am not advocating the belief, but I too must concede that it is a possibility. If a debate of such things as "millenialism" and "end-times prophecy" is to persist to its conclusion, I advocate reading as much information as is humanly possible regarding all aspects of the subject, both those to which we agree and disagree. |
