Eschatology is a secondary issue. While every idea has implications, whether you are a futurist or preterist or historicist does not affect your standing in Christ. Thus, there are no "absolute proofs" when it comes to an issue such as this.....

I have no wish to separate from brothers over the matter of the second coming. As long as you can affirm a visible, personal second coming of Christ at the end of the age to coincide with a bodily resurrection and judgement of all men, then you're OK in my book. That's because there are no "absolute proofs" that your eschatology is wrong and mine is right (or vice versa).

You don't seem to see it that way. Thus the futility of these discussion. I guess I'm done.

Amen, topcat - I share your sentiments, and hearby charge you with theft for stealing the words right outta my mouth.

I also have to give Lee N. Field credit where credit is due - he predicted this would devolve into a flamefest, and he was right. I shoulda listened to him.

It always has before. It's like shooting fish in a barrel. And, what-da-ya-know, the thread is rapidly approaching 400 posts.
