Well, at least you aren't a Preterist. Sorry I jumped the gun on that one. But you do have something in common with them. Far out symbolic interpretations.Ronald, if you had considered what I had written it was not that of a Preterist. From my reading of the 7th bowl judgement, it pertains to the last centaury with the two witness signs given happening in 1926 and 1948. From my reading of the 6th bowl judgement, it pertains to our present time period and it will conclude within the next 25 or so years from not. My two presented views just given are not consistent with what a Preterist would argue as he would be suggesting that both of these bowl judgements happened before the end of the first centaury and that they are not relevant to this present time period.
I thought that you were being comical in what you believed I had presented. As for the great tribulation, the events of this present time are no where near what will happen during the Great Tribulation which I understand is still for the distant future.

But looking back, I now remember one previous debate we had about the Second Coming and I guess I mixed you up with another poster who was a Preterest - my mistake.
I think I need to make a journal of who's who. That way I will know and log your beliefs for future reference.
For instance, in that other thread you stated that only those who got their heads chopped off (Rev. 20:4), would be the ONLY CHRISTIANS experiencing the First Resurrection and that the rest of us would have to wait until after the 1000 years for the Second Resurrection.<<
That belief is wrong. All Christians will be resurrected at His Coming. Those left behind were either on the fence, not yet committed and/or possibly the remnant Israel.
The other belief you have about the two witnesses coming in 1926 and 1948 is also wrong. They have not yet arrived. The Antichrist, who rules The world for 3 1/2 years, is in conflict with them, so when he takes control and is empowered by Satan, he kills them. They literally lay in the street dead for 3 days and the world celebrates. That gives me a thought that if every one celebrates their death (because the world has suffered the plagues they summoned on the earth), then we have already been resurrected. Or maybe we are resurrected at the same time? So some things are not clear, but others are.
Your problem is, you distorted a few key events and it throws your whole concept out of wack.
Anyways, I just have to disagree.
Peace and God Bless
