The Word itself says the Revelation of Jesus Christ would not be understood until the time was near ... only as That Day approached. Let go your traditions of men and read the Bible for God’s sake.
My friend, I read the scripture daily and have for many years.
I agree that the historic fulfillment of prophecy can only be understood after the fulfillment but that does *not* mean that a basic method of Bible interpretation or a doctrine that originates in the nineteenth century and was *not* known by the apostles could be even possibly correct.
As far as I am concerned such teachings *are* the traditions of men.
This is in no way meant as a personal attack. I'm sure that your admonishment wasn't either. Thanks for your input.
