    For those who think Amillennialism teaches "replacement theology", what does that mean exactly?

    Amillennialism teaches that the church is the spiritual Israel of God and is a distinct entity from the nation of Israel (Romans 9:6-8). So, the question I have for those who think Amill teaches "replacement theology", tell me what that means exactly. Who do we have being replaced and who...

    All Israel will be saved!

    I'm, of course, referring to Romans 11:26. Some people don't realize that the context of Romans 11 is established back in Romans 9. There is an overarching narrative that Paul taught starting at the beginning of Romans 9 through the end of Romans 11. In Romans 9, Paul establishes the fact that...

    Jesus and Peter taught that the earth will be destroyed unexpectedly on the day Jesus returns just as the earth was destroyed in Noah's day

    First, let's look at what Jesus taught will happen on the day He returns. Matthew 24:35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. 36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. 37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall...

    Jesus will deliver His kingdom to the Father when He returns and not 1,000+ years later

    Jesus and Paul both taught that Christ's kingdom will be delivered to the Father when Jesus comes again and not 1,000+ years later as Premillennialists believe. Here is what Paul wrote about this... 1 Corinthians 15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. 23 But...

    Premillennialism contradicts the scriptures which teach that Jesus will destroy all unbelievers and burn up the earth when He comes again

    I have yet to see any Premillennialist give an interpretation of 2 Peter 3:10-13 that makes any sense whatsoever. Would any Premills here like to give it a shot? The passage clearly supports Amillennialism. 2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the...

    Why do Premillennialists not believe that 1 Thessalonians 5:2-3 and 2 Peter 3:10-13 refer to the same event?

    I don't know how anyone can deny that the following two passages are about the same event, but most Premills do deny that and it is those Premills that I am addressing here. 1 Thessalonians 5:2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 3 For when...

    No mortals will survive the second coming of Christ

    Scripture repeatedly teaches that all unbelievers will be killed when Jesus returns. Since all believers will have immortal bodies when He comes again (1 Cor 15:22-23;50-54) and all unbelievers will be killed, that does not leave any mortals to populate the earth for a supposed thousand year...

    Mortal flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God.

    Paul taught that mortal flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God. 1 Corinthians 15:50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. 51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall...

    What is the mystery that Paul references in 1 Corinthians 15:51-52? Is it the rapture (catching up to Christ) as pretrib teaches or something else?

    Edit: Adding a note at the beginning of this post for clarification, since it seems that a few people are not understanding the point I'm making in this thread. The point of this thread is not to try to say that 1st Corinthians 15:51-52 does not happen at generally the same time as the rapture...

    When will the "sudden destruction" from which "they will not escape" referenced in 1 Thess 5:2-3 occur and what is the scope of it?

    Here is the passage I'm referencing with some surrounding verses for context: 1 Thess 4:14 For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. 15 According to the Lord’s word, we tell you that we who are still...

    Romans 11:25-27. New prophecy about the future or old prophecy about an ongoing reality?

    Romans 11:25-27 is one of the most highly debated passages in all of scripture. What does it mean? What was Paul teaching there? Is it a new prophecy that Paul was making about some time in the future when all Israelites, or everyone in the nation of Israel, will be saved? Or was Paul...
