You, my friend, are ignoring the obvious analogy throughout scripture where Israel is called among other things: the fig tree, the branches of the vine, the olive tree. Usually when an analogy is made, its meaning stays consistent throughout. The two olive trees referring to the two witnesses is also an example.

My friend, you seem to be under the mistaken impression that every time the phrase "fig tree" is used in the Bible it is some oblique reference to national Israel, and in some cases futurist secular Israel.

That claim cannot be supported from the Bible.

The non sequiturs in roamer_1's post were apparent, e.g., "a statement (as a response) that does not follow logically from or is not clearly related to anything previously said. "

I think those verses have been ripped out entirely

from their RUBBER BIBLES.

EXCELLENT VERSES, OF COURSE.

Though . . .

—they aren’t in the REPLACEMENTARIANS et al RUBBER BIBLES
—if they were, the RUBBER LOGIC functions would render the verses neutered in the minds of the REPLACEMENTARIANS et al

Quite accurate, imho.

Though it would likely take a few trillion millenia for the water of even The Word to make a dent in some REPLACEMENTARIAN et al granite noggins.

I gather that God's obscuring their END TIMES/GREAT TRIBULATION DUTIES from satan also obscures them from . . . willfully blind and deaf REPLACEMENTARIANS et al. . . . Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm interesting correlation, there. XeniaSt, prophetic . . . Blogger et al . . . what is so mystifying about the obvious conclusion that they are witnessing of THE KING OF KINGS AND DOING BATTLE IN BEHALF OF HIS KINGDOM in incredibly traumatic and dark times enabled and protected ty His Spirit and angelic forces??? I'd have thought even a drunken slug could have realized that.

There are many texts that demonstrate secular Israel is not biblical Israel.

I have the count of them here:

don’t be one of those folks who confuses their interpretation of the Word of God with the Word of God itself.


That seems to be a major doctrine of the REPLACEMENTARIAN, A-MIL, POST-MIL UNFAITH.

DISPENSATIONALISTS fall prey to that MUCH LESS often.

Gog and Magog are geographic locations.
This battle will take place after the millennium, and there will no longer be flesh and blood bodies. This is a spiritual battle against those who still follow satan even after being correctly instructed during the millennium teaching. God fights this battle...won’t take Him ten minutes.

NOW, NOW,

Expecting an UNRUBBERIZED BIBLICAL ANSWER;

. . . an UNRUBBERY LOGICAL answer;

. . . an UNRUBBERIZED HISTORY, historically accurate answer . . .

from a REPLACEMENTARIAN, A-MIL, PRETERIST, POST-MIL perspective . . .

could readily be a sign of Alzheimer’s or other serious delusion.

Not me.

I don’t wonder what “Bible” they are reading at all.

It’s OBVIOUSLY a RUBBER one.

I KNOW!
I KNOW!
I KNOW!
Preterists, A-mils, Post-mils,
REPLACEMENTARIANS
BELIEVE ADAMANTLY
THAT GOD ALMIGHTY
put the verses about
the fig tree
in those references
because
He was going to
include a recipe
for FIG NEWTONS.
HOWEVER, in His
diligence to
FORGET
all
HIS
ALMIGHTY, OMNISCIENT GOD
EVERLASTING PROMISES TO
Abraham, Isaac and Jacob,
He forgot to
INCLUDE the Fig Newton
recipe, too.

I think REPLACEMENTARIANS et al call that the

INFALLIBLE DOCTRINE OF OMNISCIENT FORGETFULNESS.

It does seem fairly clear that

ONE Gog/Magog war will be after the Millenium.

It seems somewhat clear that there will be one in the END TIMES before the millenium.

It kind of seems like God keeps Russia around as a bad guy to contrast God’s glory against.

She’s done well enough with her scriptures. I doubt I could add anything more to it. Would you believe it if there were a thousand scriptures proving it. That would be doubtful.

Just one, but that is one more than I have seen.

Will you admit that your views on the one hundred and forty four thousand are not entirely from Scripture.

Not on yer life! Does your Bible not contain the verses quoted in post #303? How about you read them again, and tell me what you interpret them to mean concerning this strange group of people - unless you aren't allowed, then I guess we'll have to talk about something else.

At least a new gif.

Finally somewhere fitting to put the

REPLACEMENTARIAN et al

garbage that pretends to be rational notions.

Easily solved.

Replace the RUBBER BIBLE

with an authentic real Bible.
