Greetings brothers and sisters. I am new (in terms of actually having an account) to Puritan Board. For context purposes here, have worked in healthcare for nearly 31 years, with the last 26 plus years on the front lines of CT / X-ray / Radiology. I am currently working through and putting into...

Following Christ Whithersoever He Goes by C. Matthew McMahon The book of Revelation is apocalyptic literature; God’s revealed truth in fantastical images; a way of teaching Old Testament ideas to the New Testament church. In John’s day he desired the churches under his apostolic authority to...

Greetings gentleman. I just got to the section of Bahnsen's Revelation study where he begins referring to his outline. Please let me know if anyone has heard of someone who preserved this reference document?! Of course if it is not preserved, that is exactly the way it is meant to be but if it...

Hi. I have been bewildered by the 2300 days of Daniel in Daniel 10:14. Commentators are divided with vague answers given as either historical to Antiochus or a short time in the future for the antichrist. I don't agree with this because i take the amillennial interpretation of the 70 weeks and...

Hello All, I saw some posts regarding this book dating as far back as 2008 but nothing earlier. Does anybody have a knowledge of this commentary or where I can pick up a reasonably priced copy? Any other recommended commentaries on the end times? https://www.goodreads.com/sharings/76658...

“Who can doubt that this fire was not merely mine, but also the Holy Spirit who encouraged me with a radiance of marvelous illumination from his sacred Scriptures, . . . urging me to press forward?’. . . . With a hand that could be felt, the Lord opened my mind to the fact that it would be...

I know about William Branham's "seven church ages" (in other words that the seven churches of Revelation 2,3 are church ages rather than local congregations or representative of congregations). I also know that Branham's theology is not exactly considered mainstream. Question: Does the idea of...

I have been reading through William Hendriksen's More than Conquerors, and just a couple days ago I read through his commentary on Revelation 6. He identifies the four horsemen as thus: 1) White horse rider - Jesus Christ Himself, as He throughout the Bible (and especially Revelation) is...

Looking for direction in the study of the best works on the doctrine of providential preservation, both of the Old Testament Hebrew and the New Testament Greek!

I have been studying the millennial views and have found Kenneth Gentry's Preterist Postmillennialism very compelling. I see in several places that he talks about writing an extensive commentary on Revelation but I can't find it anywhere. Does anyone know what the status of that is? Is he still...

I am interested in Reformed Amillennial eschatology, and currently hold to dispensationalism, pre-millennialism, and post-tribulation, all together. I hold to Calvinistic soteriology, though. Here is what I want: 1. Biblical arguments for both sides. 2. A debate between the two sides. 3...

Objective of this thread: refute the interpretation of those that utilize various verses to support protestant purgatory, also known as dispensational punishment or millennial/kingdom exclusion. Description: Based on the teaching of men such as Robert Govett, G.H. Lang and others, Watchman...

I've only recently over the past few months gone from dispensationalism to Covenant theology. Once that happened, I had to drop a pre-trib rapture and after a while drop Premillennialism. However being now Amil (which I believe is the true eschatology of hope, sorry Postmil friends), I'm now...

Now war arose in heaven, Michael and his angels fighting against the dragon. And the dragon and his angels fought back, -Revelation 12:7 Did Edwards and Calvin believe that Michael is Jesus? Satan has ever had a peculiar enmity against the Son of God. Probably his first rebellion, which...

My wife met with another woman from our church this morning at a coffee shop to encourage and strengthen one another in the Lord. As they're leaving, a man comes up to them, kneels down by the table, looks at my wife's friend and and gently tells her, "God wanted me to tell you that you're not...

This is something I've wondered about for a while, but is probably a silly question. These verses are occasionally used as Scriptural proof against modifying any part of the Bible. That should be common sense, but looking at the context, it seems that these verses can only be talking about...

I see a number of threads where someone states that they are a "partial-preterist." I wonder if someone can help me understand the difference between partial preterism and full preterism? Is partial preterism a somewhat fluid term, meaning different things to different people? Is there a...
