You must remember that we are all not as confused as the dispensationalist wrt the promises.

Oh you mean like the Promise to Abraham, confirmed again and again by the prophets as here in Amos 9:

"In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old ...And I will bring again the captivity of my people of Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof; they shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them. And I will plant them upon their land, and they shall no more be pulled up out of their land which I have given them, saith the LORD thy God.

When God blesses an individual repeatedly with presentations of Biblical truth . . . and the individual stubbornly blackwashes it, resists it . . . ignores it . . . Is God well pleased? I think not.

To reiterate . . . . proof against AD70 constructions on nonreality.

1. The tin horn Emporer was NOT ruler of the whole world, every people group; every language group; every tribe. THEREFORE, BIBLICALLY, IT COULD NOT HAVE BEEN HIM. His actions may have hinted at horrors to come but he didn’t have what it takes to fit the Biblical ruler involved.

2. He did not live in an era WHEN it is now possible for THE MARK OF THE BEAST to prevent anyone not having it from buying or selling. The technology did not exist then. The Scripture indicates to me that it’s not POSSIBLE to buy or sell without it—not mearly not permitted. That only exists in our era, with the chip ID implant so in evidence at a recent big football game. This one issue screams that these are the END TIMES conclusively. This one fact blows all other constructions on prophetic reality out of the water.

3. The desolation will be as no other era/time in history and as no other era/time in the future. The tin horn Emporer could not rise to that level of devastation. The Replacementarian perspective is WRONG AGAIN.

4. The tin horn Emporer did not live in a time when THE TWO WITNESSES SUPERNATURALLY WILL CALL FIRE DOWN FROM HEAVEN; WILL BE SEEN BY EVERY TRIBE, LANGUAGE GROUP, PEOPLE GROUP all around the globe. The Replacementarian perspective is WRONG AGAIN.

5. The Emporer did not live in an era when there were massive numbers of massively dramatic signs in the heavens as in our era.

6. IIRC, the slaughter then was not as massive and efficient as the future one is slated to be . . . and IIRC, there were no elements of supernatural deliverance of any of the victims as are hinted about in the future scenario.

7. The Emporer was NOT satan incarnate nor his false prophet. This fact alone blows the Replacementarian perspective out of the water on this point.

I don’t expect any of the Replacementarians to deal remotely adequately with even a fraction of the above. But at least here they are for the fair-minded lurkers to prayerfull ponder. At least 6 of the 7 are deal brakers for the nonsense interpretations so doggedly foisted on these threads.
