End Times Ping
Wars & Rumors of war is what Our Lord talks about in Matthew 24:6. Sure we’ve had them for all time, but Israel is the prophetic time piece that He uses to signal that it’s getting close to His Victorious Return.
Glory to Him!
PM me if you wish to be added/removed from the End Times Ping list.

The only way to keep Turkey from dividing European members of NATO is by first kicking it out of NATO. If that is not done, Turkey has the ability to destroy NATO if it gets NATO members strenuously at odds with each other over some military conflict Turkey is a part of. Some NATO members might want to say that NATO and its members were treaty bound to support Turkey, and that members who believe that are going to support Turkey. Other members (hopefully) can take the position that Turkey is wrong, and on the wrong side of a conflict, which should deny it NATO support. If the conflict brings in Russia against Turkey the divisions in NATO could pull it apart. I say get Turkey out of NATO now.

“...but Israel is the prophetic time piece..”
The modern state of Israel resulted from actions by the League of Nations/United Nations, not a covenant initiated by God. The prophecies in the Old Testament relate to Old Testament Israel. The last vestiges of Old Testament Israel were eradicated in 70 AD.
I can't explain how I intend to prep for these potentialities, because the Zeta Reticulans might already be listening in.
“Other members (hopefully) can take the position that Turkey is wrong, and on the wrong side of a conflict, which should deny it NATO support.”
NATO members really don’t have a choice, if Turkey is attacked. If Turkey is the aggressor, then NATO has no obligation at all.
One point regarding a possible conflict between Turkey and Greece. Within the last few weeks, Greece, Cypress and Israel entered into a mutual assistance treaty. While I am not certain, that treaty may include military support. If Turkey attacks Greece, then Israel and Cypress may get drawn in as well. Whether that will cause the rest of the Middle East to go up is an open question.
Still trying to push your Preterist nonsense. Or worse - maybe Replacement Theology (doctrine of demons).
You are wrong!
Pretty sad...
“Still trying to push your Still trying to push your Preterist nonsense. Or worse - maybe Replacement Theology nonsense. Or worse - maybe Replacement Theology...”
Never heard of Replacement Theology, but I can give scriptual warrant for whatever I believe, which you can’t.
For example, maybe you can explain why I should not take these verses literally:
Matt. 10:23 - “You shall not have gone over the cities of Israel till the Son of Man be come.”
Matt. 16:28 - “There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.”
And remember, whatever spiritual, figurative, symbolic meaning you apply to these to try wiggle out of them, I can turn around and apply the same spiritual, figurative, symbolic meaning to the ones you take literally.
Ignore the parable of the Fig Tree at your peril.
Ignore the Mark of the Beast (and capability of anybody in the past) to be able to deliver it worldwide to all (Revelation 13).
You can’t win this argument Scripturally without twisting the verses (and making God a liar).
That’s on you.
And if you don’t know what Replacement Theology as you say, you’re own words testify against you in #8.
You are guilty of it in that post.
See, see, there you go again. Will you continue to dodge those two verses I quoted?
As far as replacement theology goes I would assume, like all the people who like to push bogus theological systems, they use the Bible. Am I supposed to reject the Bible because they do so?
I’m not going to discuss those verses with somebody who’s already made up their mind and wants to continue down their rabbit hole regardless of what is posted to them.
You say you can read and comprehend the Bible, then do it - let the verses speak for themselves. But you refuse to do that and come up with bad conclusions, then you want to argue with those of us who do allow the verses to speak for themselves - that’s how bad theology comes about. Not to mention hundreds of bogus sects of “Christianity”.
God’s promises to Israel are not finished, nor will they ever be.
You can claim Eschatological Dispensationalism is bogus, and you also have your own ideas about Soteriology.
No point debating you any further if you continue to insist.
Hosea 4:6
Proverbs 10:21
“...let the verses speak for themselves.”
What do you think I am doing? When Jesus said that some of you standing here will not see death till... that he could possibly mean that some of you standing here will not see death...?
And you don’t want to discuss those verses with somebody who’s already made up their mind? You mean you haven’t made up your mind about Bible verses? Because you certainly seem to me as someone who has their mind made up. No one else is permitted to make up their mind except you? Or they have to agree to see it your way before you will grace them with what you think?
You don’t want to entertain those verses because you cannot answer them with what you insist on believing. What you believe about Israel will not save you.
Only Jesus Saves! However what I believe about Genesis 12:3 stands true no matter what others say.
I’ve studied Matthew 16:28 and Luke 9:27.
How many people saw Jesus in His Holy Splendor during their lifetimes before dying?
