If you've got something to say Tree, just spit it out, we are all ears! |
I guess we have reached a communication break down. I asked you before who are the 144,000 (in revelation) and the two witnesses? You had claimed that the Temple has already been built. Your response was to make the implication that I was making a statement to which you then refuted an imaginary statement (we call that a strawman argument). Some people do such things because they misunderstand. Some people do such things because they exhibit a spirit of deceitfulness. I rather not accuse you and give you the benefit that I would like to receive and assume you just misunderstood.

You are right, I should have told you right up front that I am not about to go into a discussion on the book of Revelation with someone who I am not convinced even knows the basics of salvation, and believes in pre-mil, maybe even disp. pre-mil, top that off with as bad a case of literalism / legalism as I have ever seen. Sorry to be so tough on you but man you need to wake up! See how far back you have set me on my quest for patience and you know its all your fault  |

JimD, let me reach out to you. Would you like to discuss the matter of salvation in great depth with me? I would like to do so free of the numbers - 1v1. We can do so either here or at my forum if you desire.

Thanks for the offer but I do not really see any point in it because you nor i are likely to change or view. We have already went as (deep) as we both know how to go, unless you have been holding back something that would be particurally illuminating. If so please share it with me right here. |
