Re: "Israel Only" (full preterist doctrine)

Robby,

It's all good, brother . . . I know exactly what you mean when you say you simply want to know what the Bible says, as opposed to man-made stuff!

Re: Lordship Salvation (sinfulness)

I guess the real question is whether acknowledging one's own sinfulness and need for a savior is a fundamental threshold salvation requirement essential to the gospel message, or rather a question of growing in holiness and truth. Over the last decade or so I've been influenced by thinkers like N.T...

Re: "Israel Only" (full preterist doctrine)

Hello Robby, I'm not exactly sure what all you were getting at. I noted that "Rivers" rejects non-canonical writings. He did, at least when he was giving rebuttles to some stuff Don Preston wrote. (Preston had cited some extra-biblical views of some of the rabbis). "Rivers" seems to also have a "Bib...

Re: What did you learn today?

Hello Homer, :) Btw, I thought it was cool what Michelle posted: that the Kingdom is truly international (keeping in mind the sad news we hear of persecution), :( I recently PM'd dwilkins asking if he would be so kind to post on my "Israel Only" thread, which he did. Also, we discussed some preteris...

Re: "Israel Only" (full preterist doctrine)

Addendum Chris Camillo (AKA Rivers of Eden) makes a couple of big assumptions in his argument. Every time I've seen him argue his system he speeds past the most foundation assumption, which it turns out he does a poor job of proving. That foundational argument is that since "Gentile" can refer to th...

Re: "Israel Only" (full preterist doctrine)

Thanks for the replies. Since the OP I've gone ahead and listened to more of "Rivers" on the unpreterist site (easily googleable). One was "25 Hours of Rivers O Feden" which I listened to as I was going to sleep; a regular habit I have, since I work 3rd shift, 'background noise' to help me sleep. I ...

Re: What did you learn today?

Finally a nite off work, thought to drop back by. _____________ @Michelle -- With your OP, do you know I actually tried to find the "Like" button? LOL @Singalphile (and Michelle) -- But I don't want to change this into a preterist discussion! I mentioned to Glenn Peoples (a Friend on FB, also in the...

Re: What did you learn today?

I learned that I, too, miss that old-fashioned Bible fellowship stuff that you can get on forums like this one! I'm a View Active Topics frequent reader (as I post every time I come back here, almost, LOL) but you know what? What? Facebook is great in many ways. You can find a Group on virtually any...

"Israel Only" (full preterist doctrine)

Greetings! I recently came across the "Israel Only" (IO) teaching in a preterist group on Facebook. I think I had heard about it before a little, but didn't really try to find out what it's all about. I asked some folks about it (who hold this view) on FB. They were kind enough to respond. However, ...

Re: Revelation Fixation

It looks like the conversation has shifted toward preterism. (Another thread could be started, if need be, I'm sure). If you/he sees this and has time . . . . My belief is that neither the Corinthians nor the Thessalonians experienced any particular crises in connection with the fall of Jerusalem, a...
