Caused me to look him up. Alive at 88, God bless him.

Abe Vigoda died.

As far as they could tell.

One day is as a thousand years. And, yeah, wouldn’t it be grand if Revelation referred to the Roman times? All I know is, Jesus is coming back soon, and if we’re ready, we won’t have to suffer the great tribulation. So get ready! (Just in case you’re wrong...)

Charles Meek........Your analysis is not only “meek”, it’s completely wrong. Who are you studying, and who are you listening to? You may be the victim of false teaching. Or perhaps you’re just arrogant. I don’t know whether to worry about you or to warn others about you. I pray fervently that you are not in a position of teaching others!!!! Tragic for them but double bad for you if you are misleading others. You need to get some dependable commentaries......ie John MacArthur, Warren Wiersbe, David Jeremiah, Amir Tsarfati, to name a few, and get yourself a good study Bible....NKJV, NASB, NIV are the best. Teach yourself and be sure of your facts before you try to teach others!!! For your own sake as well as theirs.

Hal Lindsey is a deceiver and a false prophet.

>As I am neither pretrib nor dispensationalist, I’m no fan of Hal Lindsey, but what you are always pushing on FR, is even worse. A preterist calling somebody a deceiver and a false prophet is laughable. When it comes to deception and false prophecy, preterists are at the head of the line.

Is someone who reads prophesy and try's to interpret current events and history to it a false prophet?

The book of Revelation has a timeline...After the plagues and destruction take place and a third of mankind is wiped out, Jesus sits in Jerusalem for a thousand years...Then, the earth is destroyed and the New Jerusalem shows up...

Two observations:

If your theory is true, why do people keep referring to this place as earth when it was destroyed a thousand years ago, and,

If this is heaven, I am sorely disappointed...

But anyway, thanks, but no thanks...I'll stick with what the bible really teaches...

Hal Lindsey help bring many to Christ, I am not sure what your goal is here but suspect you “Might” be to bring confusion in the Last Days and yes we are in the last days.

I don’t find the dispensational or the preterist theory of revelation persuasive. Actually, I don’t believe completely in any of the common interpretative frameworks but I find the idealist approach, as put forth by G.K. Beale in his incredible commentary to be the one I come closest to subscribing to. I don’t go with everything he says but I think he’s on the right track. I would consider myself an historicist/idealist.

Nope. Just those that followed Yeshua and after.

Agreed.
Few people know the story of the siege of Jerusalem in 70 AD and even less know how the Christians were convinced that this was when Jesus was going to return.

The Romans entered the city and everyone was killed.
The few that survived got out first, Flavius Josephus being the most notable who then wrote about the siege.

Note to FR members....a time may come when we need to fight or flee.
It didn’t go well for Jews who stayed in Germany or Poland.

So you’re saying then that everybody on the plane would be in this Rapture regardless of belief?

The major attack on Lindsey is the timing.

The reason for the events is probably the most important and the proper response to the events is important but I don’t remember much of the book spent on that, but it may have.

Eyes tend to go to the wrong part of prophecy..............

Yeah, that struck me, too. I expect though, to go with the pilots.
