Bible Note: Dear Love Fountain, Greetings in the name of Jesus! What do I think? I think this sounds a lot like the SDA, except you have not gone the next step, which is to say, "...therefore, Christ will return on (such and such a date),which will be the start of the millenial reign," or, "...therefore, Christ (already) DID return on (such and such a date), and we are now in the midst of the millenial reign." The problem is that if we say the six days of creation in Genesis is equal to 6000 years of history, then is Genesis void, or is it a 'double entendre?' As has been stated, these numbers theories are vain conjecture at best. We do not have the information necessary to prove the pre-Christ 4000 years. Even if we did, we are forbidden to 'solve' the time of the Lord's return. Blessings and peace in Christ Jesus, charis |
