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!

      So you are saying that 666 is the number of Barney?
      Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

        That reminds me of the old Character Personality Profile questions on Jagged Alliance II.

        Q5. Barney should be:
        1. Worshiped as a role model
        2. Hung
        3. Hung and shot
        4. Hung, shot, guttted, and run over
        Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.
        1 Corinthians 16:13

          2 through 4, in that order
          The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

            From the character Hanover Fiste in the movie Heavy Metal:
            "He's nothing but a low-down, double-dealing, backstabbing, larcenous perverted worm! Hanging's too good for him. Burning's too good for him! He should be torn into little bitsy pieces and buried alive!"

                Then there was the old line from Hogan's Heroes about being shot and sent to the Russian front.

                  Yup!

                  I used to have a wooden sign at the entrance to my property that said....

                  "Trespassers will be shot, bitten, trampled, mutilated, folded, stapled and cattle prodded -- survivors will be prosecuted"

                  It kept getting stolen, and I haven't replaced it.

                  Again.

                    Well, I needed it more than you did.
                    Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

                      How many times do we have to tell you? That dang-blasted moose can't read anyhow.

                          That's nothing:

                          “Sorry, darling, it had gone right out of my head,” said Lasareleen. “Here. All of you. And you, doorkeeper. No one is to be let out of the house today. And anyone I catch talking about this young lady will be first beaten to death and then burned alive and after that kept on bread and water for six weeks. There.”

                            ...so I, or anyone else, are not to leave the room even if you come and get him?

                                They all believe that they have secret knowledge about some plan that the rest of the world has missed and must be informed about. Whether it is the JFK murder, fake moonlandings, 9/11, Monster Energy Drinks, or the Second Coming, it is all basically the same thing.
                                ## The Nazi regime, & those of Stalin & Mao, were pretty good foretastes of Antichrist. And all three were worlds away from spotting the number 666 in all sorts of far-fetched places. These 666-spotters seem to look everywhere except where there is real evil, cruelty, falsehood, torture, & denial of people's most basic humanity going on. How can people in the US possibly identify a drink or bar-codes as having anything to do with Revelation 13 ? There seems to be an amazing lack of proportion between finding the number 666 on a can OTOH, and the sheer scale of the slaughter that has actually happened in the last 80 years OTO. To say nothing of the tens of millions dead as a result of abortion.

                                Identifying 666 in a can is too arcane to be plausible. Something far less out of the way seems called for by what Revelation 13 says. As for the "mark of the [first] beast", that sounds remarkably like this:

                                4 “Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord;[a] 5 and you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might. 6 And these words which I command you this day shall be upon your heart; 7 and you shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. 8 And you shall bind them as a sign upon your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. 9 And you shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.
