Dr. Vlach, I'm enjoying watching all your videos. I've learned so much about the Kingdom and the New Creation Model. I have a question about this video. It is clear from Matthew 23:39 that the Lord is pointing to his second coming (because they are pronounced after Palm Sunday), but in Luke 13:35, that looks like a parallel text, these words are pronounced BEFORE Palm Sunday. How to reconcile this? Blessings
As far as the table centric passages, does the church celebrate the wedding supper after rapture and before millennial kingdom? Also, do you see the killing of the sinners of israel in amost9, zeph. 3, rev.? The 2/3 figures, being instrumental in the final " all israel?".
Some preterists and supersessionists explain Jesus's eschatological "until" statements as being prophetically potential, rather than prophetically determinative. They claim that Jesus is saying that corporate Israel _might_ repent, but not that they _will_ repent. If this understanding is correct, this means that Israel actually might not _ever_ repent. As a futurist, I disagree with this interpretation. What do you say about this about, Dr. Vlach?
The condition of repentance has to occur, but many OT and NT passages indicate that condition will occur some day. Deuteronomy 30, Zechariah 12:10; Romans 11:26
Romans 11 doesn’t seem to indicate Israel as a nation will continue to reject Christ, neither does Revelation if you accept the Futurist reading of Revelation is true. In fact the preterists would flat out contradict Romans 11:1.
Matthew 23 (you won't see me until you say..) is quoted in Luke but in Luke's account it is before the triumphal entry (where they say blessed is he who..) and in Matthew he says it after. Any thoughts? Is Luke putting it out of order or does Jesus just say that statement twice?
