Do you really think the Bible reads something like that??? Do you really? Cause that doesn’t exist in the Bible, but on the SciFi shelf at the B&N.

Do you believe that the Lord God is incapable of "coming with clouds" and in a way so that "every eye shall see Him"????

or do you believe that John was lying when he wrote the words: “Behold He cometh with clouds and every eye shall see Him” [Rev 1:7]???

Which is it???

***Do you believe that the Lord God is incapable of “coming with clouds” and in a way so that “every eye shall see Him”????***

I deny the Dispensational version of this coming, which has turned the appearance of the Lord Jesus as the coming of space aliens from Mars or something. I deny this hyper literal reading of Scripture which manufactures clouds in space and UFO’s to try and force fit Scriptures together. That is what I don’t believe.

Oh, and I deny your false dichotomy that you setup.

Believe in whatever you want. Just don’t expect thoughtful Christians to take you seriously. And, don’t even expect thoughtful Dispensationalists to take you seriously.

Well put. And the REPLACEMENTARIAN perspective has NO SHRED of a reasonable, logical, Biblical reply.
