I don’t many military options here in the USA other than to support Christianity because the Nation was begotten on virtues that people should be able to read the Bible in a language other than Latin or Hebrew and not be subject to a Jewish Zionism or a Roman Catholic Church that only wanted Latin to be a language and prefers the Hebrew language scriptures over the Greek language scriptures. I’ve already sworn in on my military oaths to defend the Constitution to the point of death if necessary.
“Christian preterist interpretation of the book of Daniel”
Jay Rogers, _In The Days of These Kings: The Book of Daniel in Preterist Perspective_ (2024)
Jay Rogers, _The Prophecy of Daniel in Preterist Perspective: The Easy Parts and the Hard Parts_ (2024)
Milton Terry (1840-1914), _The Apocalypse of John: A Preterist Commentary on the Book of Revelation_
“The Jews winning the Jewish Roman Wars was the Old Testament prophecy.
The New Testament is the opposite.
The Son of Man coming in clouds of the sky was not that Old Testament meaning.
It was however often interpreted as being that Old Testament prophecy after the Jewish Roman Wars. 👎”
What are some OT prophecies that envisioned a messianic figure that was:
triumphant?
beaten down?
The Lake of ΠΥΡ
Revelation 20:14
εις την λιμνην του πυρος
ο πυρος: wheat
No, it can’t be a Lake of Wheat because πυρος cannot be both the nominative case and genitive case.
το πυρ: Fire 🔥 a 3rd declension noun, neuter, singular: genitive case ending ος: πυρος, του πυρος
εις: preposition used only with Accusative case
εις την λιμνην: into the lake (accusative case, feminine noun, singular, 2nd declension)
It’s a metaphorical phrase. Lakes are usually of water, but this lake is of fire. 🤯 Possibly a metaphor of the Sun. The Firmament above the land where the Moon is the Abyss and the Sun is fire, and the Sky is all water, hence the color of blue sorta sometimes.
“The prophecies of Isaiah and Jeremiah were fulfilled between the time of destruction of the First Temple and construction of the Second Temple”
Including these prophecies?:
Jeremiah 31

31 “The days are coming,” declares the Lord,
“when I will make a new covenant
with the people of Israel
and with the people of Judah.
32 It will not be like the covenant
I made with their ancestors
when I took them by the hand
to lead them out of Egypt,
because they broke my covenant,
though I was a husband to them,”
declares the Lord.
33 “This is the covenant I will make
with the people of Israel after that time,”
declares the Lord.
“I will put my law in their minds
and write it on their hearts.
I will be their God,
and they will be my people.
34 No longer will they teach their neighbor,
or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord,’
because they will all know me,
from the least of them to the greatest,”
declares the Lord.
“For I will forgive their wickedness
and will remember their sins no more.”

For to us a child is born,

18 But be glad and rejoice forever

for I will create Jerusalem to be a delight
and its people a joy.

and take delight in my people;
the sound of weeping and of crying
will be heard in it no more.

Those words do not sound much like Preterism. If so, they were Preterists and they were trying to overthrow the British Kingdom of God. Matthew 5:30, Armageddon 1776.

Keith Giles, _Sola Deus: What If God Is All of Us?_ (2023), 149pp., on 99-100
My conclusion [in _Jesus Unexpected_] was that everyone would eventually come face-to-face with Christ because we would all die in a few short years, and in that way, we would all live forever in Christ’s Kingdom which was beyond space and time.
But a few friends pushed back and asked me to add an epilogue that gave us some hope for an eventual New Heaven and New Earth here on this planet.
So, I thought about it and decided that, sure, why not, I could envision a potential outcome where God’s Kingdom plan finally comes to be on this planet and, eventually, at some point in the future, physical humanity comes to embody the reality of Christ’s Kingdom here.
Yet, I still can’t understand why so many of us insist on the physical fulfillment of such things.
As if being alive in the presence of Christ is only “real” if we’re all in physical bodies of flesh and bone.
I… don’t understand that.
What is “real” is most likely so far beyond our ability to comprehend or imagine that, in comparison, this physical reality we’re in now is most likely about as “real” as a child’s crayon drawing hanging on someone’s refrigerator.
Revelation 20:1
καταβαινοντα
Not a intransitive verb:dative case. (τω)intransitive to-in: into
Transitive verb, participle:verbal adjective meaning because κατα must go with the accusative case and οντα is a present tense participle 3rd declension masculine singular accusative case(τα). Imperfect Aspect because it is the present tense.
This being is not literally flying, it was riding the sky and dismounting from it. The sky is a horse and the rider is the αγγελον. Rider of the sky. Flying and riding are not synonymous. 🤔 Transitive verb meaning of βαινω. ** you do not have permission to see this link **
** you do not have permission to see this link **
As Imperfect Aspect it is not completed yet. It is ongoing now in the present tense. 😬 I’ve looked up there many times and cannot see it because the being has already dismounted from the sky horse and now walks upon the earth wandering to and fro upon it.
IMPERFECT ASPECT 🙂 TRANSITIVE VERB PARTICIPLE
both present tense and imperfect tense. One word=One hour of contemplation.
Searching history books for major events that would’ve occurred approximately 1000 years after Revelation 20:5.
The Great Schism between the Western-Latin Church and the Eastern-Greek Church. Year 1054 AD. The Investiture Controversy.

I don’t study Latin, and both Latin and Koine Greek are now dead languages (not having any native speakers).

After the destruction of the Temple in A.D. 70, it was impossible to follow the Law of Moses.
Thus this event marked the end of the Old Covenant Age and the beginning of the New Covenant Age which is identified as the kingdom of God in the Gospels and the New Jerusalem in Revelation 21 and 22.
The fact that the Thousand-Year Reign might have begun in A.D. 70 is also supported by the fact that the Seljuk Turks conquered the Holy Land and began to molest Christian pilgrims on their way to Jerusalem in A.D. 1071— one thousand years after the destruction of the Temple in A.D. 70!
Further evidence that the thousand year reign in the New Jerusalem is a literal thousand year period is suggested by the fact that the Temple system in Old Covenant Jerusalem lasted almost exactly 1000 years.
