1 | Whats up with Judgement, calvinists plz? | Rom 9:21 | JRdoc | 61491 | ||
There are several views on the Second Coming of Christ. The details on such a thread would need to be handled chapter by chapter (of the Book of Revelation). You would get interpretation after interpretation. I am willing, but it would need to be regulated (one week on chapter 1, one week on chapter 2, or something similar.....to give everyone an opportunity to post...) Though I "know" there are differences on this issue it should not separate unity--this is not an atonement or other issue of such mammoth importance to one's eternity....(please do not think it is not important, I do not think that...and Christ even adds a very severe warning to those whom He knows will attempt to pervert the book). I merely mean that if one is not saved, his view on the Second Coming does not matter, either way he is going some place else, of course than he would understand a little more about the time of his going. In essence I am not dogmatic about this issue--of time, though I do have an opinion backed up from the original language, history, ....... Certain things that one should keep in mind about the Revelation: 1. Every "credible (that holds some credence that is--only one is really legitimate) view" holds that Christ is Coming Again--We All Agree. This is pivotal. This is the Revelation--He is Coming. 2. Now as to when, there is the problem. I would guess from the other posts I have seen here that most here are pre-trib...there may be a couple of Post Tribs and I know there is at least one A-Mil (myself). The whole of when Christ is coming back revolves around Revelation 20 and one's interpretation thereof. Once done the interpretation of Revelation unfolds beautifully. Another study I would urge one to take is on the origins of dispensationalism (Scofield)--tracing its history through automatic handwriting (yes, cultic), the return of the Tongues movement, Lewis Way of the "London Society for Promoting Christianity among the Jews", its doctrine manifested by a Chilean Jesuit (The Coming of Christ in Glory and Majesty (ca. 1791)), Henry Drummond, Edward Irving, and the list goes on. Tracing its history you wonder how any Christian could ever hold to it? If you and others desire to begin a thread on Rev we can go Chapter by Chapter. ANyone for a Rev THread? Start it. |

As I stated, if anyone wants to view questions and answers - different viewpoints that have already been discussed to the max by people who are very knowledgable and have more than adequate education to discuss it, type it in the search section. Enough is enough. |
