”Luk 21:27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
Now that is the plain truth of the scripture...”
Yes, it is. And it’s interpreted literally through a tunnel only by the dispensationalists. So I’ll repeat the following to you that I’ve sent to someone else:
Isaiah 19
A Prophecy About Egypt
1 An oracle concerning Egypt:
See, the LORD RIDES ON A SWIFT CLOUD
AND IS COMING TO EGYPT.
The idols of Egypt tremble before him,
and the hearts of the Egyptians melt within them.
The above was fulfilled of course. Do you think God literally hopped on a cloud and rode down to Egypt and kicked over their idols? Or maybe the above was apocalyptic hyperbole concerning God’s using the Assyrians to bring His wrath upon Egypt (Is. 20)?
Now, does the following have any similarity to the above:
Mark 14:61-62: Again the high priest asked him, “Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed One?”
62”I am,” said Jesus. “And YOU will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and COMING ON THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN.”
So any similarity between “coming on the clouds” and “rides on a swift cloud and is coming to Egypt?
Also, Jesus told Caiaphas that Caiaphas would see Him. Do you think that Caiaphas is still living today and waiting to “see” Him?
Answer these questions honestly now. Intellectual dishonesty won’t fly.
Discuss the issues all you want, but do NOT make it personal.
Is that what God inspired Isaiah to write??? Yes??? Well of course I believe it then...
What motive do you have for not believing God???
If God said he'll show up on a magic carpet sportin' a full blown 427 Chevy power plant, I'd believe that as well...
Maybe it's the company you keep...There's lots of folks in the scripture account who didn't believe God/Jesus and what did Jesus say about them???
Mat 15:14 Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.
Take the blinders off...Start believing God...
