I just wonder . . . when they lie down on their beds at night . . .

do their derisive dismissals of HOLY SCRIPTURE—GOD’S WORD . . .

do those derisions trouble their consciences at all . . .

. . . or are their consciences already seared as with a hot iron?

To deny the reality, validity, applicability, plain meaning of straight-forward Scripture and blame it on interpretation . . . has to be some level of deep rooted deception or rebellion or willful blindness or some such. I don’t know how to explain it any other way.

topcat and other preterists are Christians who love the Lord. They just happen to have a different view of the end times. I dont think they dismiss the Word of God. On the contrary, they have a high regard for it. Just because they don't interpret something the same way you or I do, does not mean they are deceived, and vice versa.

It's unbecoming of us and a terrible witness when we seek to devour one another.
