Bible Note: Greetings c. marengo, I gather from the thrust of your post that you would hold to a preterist view? Not to take away from your view (or it's validity), you might gain a better audience if you didn't appear to be on a diatribe?! I don't hold to such a view as you espouse- and you are within orthodoxy- but a question begs. If you don't believe in the person of antichrist, who (or what) do 2 Thess (2:3) and 1 John 2:18 refer? You say "Why do we insist on teaching people that the reason we evangelize is to have fire insurance" I don't know that we do. Who are such that are teaching this? Would you care to be a little more specific? I certainly agree that coming to Christ is more and should be than just "fire insurance". However, I'm not quite following your thought pattern. Indeed our motivation to serve Him should come out of love, not fear (Tit. 2:11-12). It may also help, to set more of a foundation for your argument so that we might better determine where you are coming from:-) Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
