JH, You chose not to believe the truth because you demand evidence over faith that Christ meant what he said. Funny thing is there is plenty of evidence AND Christ meant what He said. However physical gratification over the spiritual truth drives the futurist camp as it did the Jews in Christ's day.

So the only real truths are those that have no Biblical foundation or proof? Hummmm

Then that would be proof you had the truth, if it was based on faith alone with nothing else to support it? Hummmm

If truth were based on faith alone, anything you chose to believe, as long as you had faith, would be the truth, and supported by God. Hummmmm

All the heretics and false teachers that Paul and John and all the writers warned us about, if they had simply had faith in their nonsense, then it would have been acceptable to God? Hummm

A legitimate faith must be built on a solid foundation. Small questions that arise that cast doubt on certain parts of it, can be set aside and accepted by faith until God gives you the complete answer. But to start out with nothing but faith as a belief, with no logical proof of any doctrine, is a little much to accept.

It seems like only 6 months ago I told you to remember to set your clocks back one hour.
Well, I was wrong. You're supposed to set them ahead one hour, so you loose one hour of sleep tonight and you'll be an hour late for services in the morning.

Another public announcement.

JH,
I already presented more proof than you.
Your proof is that a man was told that another man saw John on Patmos.

My proof is that John never mentioned AD 70 (the second biggest modern day event in his lifetime).
John mentioned the priesthood as if it was still in existence but after AD 70, it was not existent.
John measured the temple.
Etc.

It is not logical to believe Revelation was written post AD 70 with all the internal evidence.

Other proof I have posted time and time again.
Christ said it! Using the same type of speech as prophets of old who prophesied doom on others. The apostles taught it! Confirming THEY were in the last days.

The signs of Matt 24 are declared by Jude, John and Josephus.
YOU have no proof Christ did not return when he said. I have Biblical proclimation and world history proving it's fulfillment.

God Bless
Nate
