I would tend to agree but maybe we need to still keep the thin majority to hinder any “lame duck” session antics that Brandon can sign into law before Trump returns?
I should have been a bit more specific. Of the 70 weeks, 69 have elapsed. 1 week still to come.
Revelation describes some very unusual events. For a minority view to be viable - assuming the objective is to explain Revelation has completely occurred in the 1st Century - it will need to rationally explain all those events and in my opinion point to historical evidence.
For me, getting the gospel of salvation correct and out there to the unsaved world is most important.
This view does not explain the following (not all inclusive):
Daniel’s 70th week
The 144,000
The two witnesses...
Their death at the hand of the beast
Lying out for all in the world to see
Their resurrection and subsequent earthquake
The mark of the beast
The false prophet
All the judgments (e.g. when did all the green grass burn up? when did all living things in the sea die?)
Could there be an interpretation that may be a partial or dual interpretation where some things took place in the past but a greater and complete fulfillment is in the future?
Regardless, the key event in history is the cross of Christ and the things associated - His life, His sacrifice, His blood, His death, His burial, His resurrection, His return - according to the scriptures. There is no other name by which we must be saved than that of Jesus.
