    Preterists would never be so foolish as to set a date for the end of the world.

    That's something dispensationalists would do.

    And you continue to show you know nothing about dispensationalism.

    Amen to that. Evidently, the person has no idea what they are talking about. Rev. Mitch, it is good to see you survived the end of the world. I had nightmares of you ruling over me in the New Heaven and New Earth and giving me what I deserved for those few posts we had run ins over. LOL

    Do yourself a favor. Read up on a subject before you post.

    "Dispensationalists are notorious for trying to set the date of Christ's return, tying Bible prophecy to current events, tying Bible prophecy to politics involving the state of Israel, and naming the Antichrist. In the 1830s the original Dispensationalists in the Plymouth Brethren and Irvingites were naming Robert Owen (American founder of several anarchist-socialist communes such as New Harmony, Indiana) as the likely Antichrist. William Branham predicted the World Council of Churches and the Catholic Church would merge by 1977 and the rapture would be in 1977. Hal Lindsey thinks the founding of modern Israel in 1948 set off the prophetic clock which Jesus must return within a generation after, predicted Jesus' return by 1988 and wrote The 1980s: Countdown to Armageddon. Mary Stewart Relfe has the same view of Israel as Lindsey, and named Anwar Sadat as the Antichrist. Jack Chick has the same view of Israel, but thinks the Pope is the Antichrist. Pat Robertson (whom some of us think is the Antichrist) seemingly wants to start World War III as soon as possible to speed up Jesus' return. Harold Camping set the date of Christ's return in 1994, and when that didn't happen, started preaching that we have left the "Dispensation of Grace" and nobody can now be saved. All of them think the final sequence of events leading to the rapture and Christ's return will be set off by an invasion of Israel by Russia."

    Scripture says (try reading it sometime) that we do not know the date of Christ's return. That applies to dispy and everyone else. So what is the point you are trying to make?

    ...point? That'd be post #43:

    "Preterists would never be so foolish as to set a date for the end of the world.

    That's something dispensationalists would do."

    Not wrong.

    It is the height of ignorance to try to support a false claim by using extreme examples. It is much like labeling all Baptists based on the Westboro crowd.

    It is the height of deceitfulness to misrepresent my statement in this way. Once again:

    "Preterists would never be so foolish as to set a date for the end of the world.

    That's something dispensationalists would do."

    ….and that is exactly what some Dispensationalists have done, all the while making bookoo filthy lucre. Sensationalism sells.

    kyredneck, I'm sorry something I said in a light hearted manner turned into a dunnybrook.
    I had hoped that even preterists would see (though perhaps not totally appreciate) the humor.

    But you are right to return in the same vein as some/many dispensationalist authors have made some outrageous statements.

    But they are not alone.

    As far as I know, no one group has the sole publishing rights on error or stepping outside the boundaries of scripture or the interpretation thereof.

    Fault and disagreement can be found by someone for anyone.

    Again, I'm sorry for stepping on toes.
