Hey mike, I have a very good questions, I also believe all things are fulfilled… However in Acts 17 (KJV), “And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.” Paul is at Athens telling these men of Athens to repent because God was about to (Greek word mello) judge the known world at the time (oikumene). Now if this judgement was in 70 AD to the Jews, what relevance would this had to the men here at Athens? What relevance would Paul had in “commanding all men every where to repent” if this judgement was going to happen locally in the land of Judea in 70 AD? And the most important question, how did God judge the Roman Empire, the known world at the time around 70 AD? This is so critical in my mind. Because I see no point in Paul preaching to these Athenians, heathen, that God was about to judge the known world at the time, if in actuality the judgment was for Israelites that lived in Judea and Jerusalem. Please tackle this if you have the time. Thanks
Kim continues to use the language of leaven from Matt 13 to describe the future, but Jesus's entire narrative in that chapter was about the end of the then present Old Covenant Age and Covenant. He doesn't need to import partial preterist postmillennial ideas to believe that the entire world is and will continue to come into the city gates. His misunderstanding that the physical creation was cursed In Gen 3 (reading Gen 3 in the LXX really helps) is a problem.
Great show!! 👍👍
Happy Birthday Mike!

Good question. Id like to hear Don or Mikes response to this.
Where is ‘pre-incarnate’ in the scripture?
"Rocks trees birds and the bees? or "Rocks bugs stars and slugs" or at least make it rhyme DON!!!

Kim’s views are incoherent
