Eschatology 201 Guidelines

This area of the forum is primarily for Christian theists to discuss orthodox views of Eschatology. Other theist participation is welcome within that framework, but only within orthodoxy. Posts from nontheists that do not promote atheism or seek to undermine the faith of others will be permitted at the Moderator's discretion - such posters should contact the area moderators before posting.


Without turning this forum into a 'hill of foreskins' (Joshua 5:3), I believe we can still have fun with this 'sensitive' topic.

However, don't be misled, dispensationalism has only partly to do with circumcision issues. So, let's not forget about Innocence, Conscience, Promises, Kingdoms and so on.

End time -isms within orthodox Christianity also discussed here. Clearly unorthodox doctrines, such as those advocating "pantelism/full preterism/Neo-Hymenaeanism" or the denial of any essential of the historic Christian faith are not permitted in this section but can be discussed in Comparative Religions 101 without restriction. Any such threads, as well as any that within the moderator's discretions fall outside mainstream evangelical belief, will be moved to the appropriate area.

Millennialism- post-, pre- a-

Futurism, Historicism, Idealism, and Preterism, or just your garden variety Zionism.

From the tribulation to the anichrist. Whether your tastes run from Gary DeMar to Tim LaHaye or anywhere in between, your input is welcome here.

OK folks, let's roll!

    Ha ha ha I was 100% sure that you would not offer a word for word interpretation not because you don't have time but rather because you cannot. Futurists have never accepted this challenge. The last one was "Explain from scripture word for word and line for line what John says about the antichrist." They cannot do it because their doctrines are not taken from scripture but rather word or phrase associations and not out of the full context of scripture.

      How about you go back and answer my point by point rebuttal before you demand that I do more work to compensate for your intellectual laziness?

          Typical. Ignore everyone and keep repeating your refuted arguments.

            Today, yes. When Luther did the translation, no. Try again, kemosabe.

                Very confusing. My comment was set in the time of Tyndale. If this is true he must have made a change before the time of Tyndale.

                  Always amazes me that you do all of the things that you accuse others of. Projecting maybe?

                    It could be that your source (which has a very evident pro-Lutheran bias) is simply incorrect.

                      Sorry, champ. You are on the clock for a response to me. That takes precedence over your hand wave and request for information. Respond and then I'll respond in kind.

                          Everyone has a bias.
                          This is actually an extremely low priority item on my list. In the past I depend on credible organizations like Christian History to sort through all of the conjecture, arguments, and misinformation about these minor topics.
                          I'm still waiting for some actual evidence supporting your source's assertions. Characterization of your source as 'credible' is not evidence.
                          My wife just sent me an email about this topic a few minutes ago...

                          "Death of Athanasius. More than any other man, he took up the fight for Christ’s divinity in his writings. Five times he had been forced into exile. Slander dogged him. Yet he remained faithful to his vision of an uncreated Christ. He was the first to list the books of the New Testament as we know them."

                          Yet another claimant. I've seen about 5 or 6 so far.
                          What's that got to do with anything? I have nothing against Athanasius - he's a member of my church!

                            Well it would be a waste of time because of Futurist Rule # 1 ...

                            1. Deny any historical fulfillment of any prophesy by any means.

                            I was a Futurist for the first half of my life and I full well am aware of their errors.

                            No amount of facts, historical documents, logic, common sense, will ever even scratch rule number one. And so I leave you to your unrealistic expectations.

                              1) Enter a thread and throw around accusations as if they are proven facts, and when corrected, run like a coward.
