Another problem for futurists is that if Christ rewarded “each person according to what he has done” MT 16:27 at the transfiguration, which was “six days later” MT 17:1, then the book of Revelation would had to have been written and fulfilled within that same six day period because Revelation says the same thing; “I am coming soon, and my reward is with me to pay each one according to what he has done!” REV 22:12
Oh wait! Futurists have come up with two judgment days. Hmmm!
This is such a great show! Thanks you guys.
When we compare Daniel 7:14 with 7:27 “one like a son of man” is equated with the saints and the passage clearly depicts their spiritual reality in A.D. 70:
1) “One like a son of man” = the saints = Christians.
2) They “Came with the clouds of heaven” Dan 7:13 and likewise in the New Testament resurrection, Christians are “caught together in clouds” 1 Thes 4:17
3) Cloud coming means God’s coming in judgment. In the New Testament resurrection Christians judged “the world” 1 Cor 6:2 and sat “on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.” MT 19:28 Did these Christians assist in a cloud coming judgment A.D. 70? It is clear they did!
4) They “went up to the Ancient of Days” and were “brought near to Him.” Dan 7:13 In the New Testament resurrection Christians are Spiritually “raised… up with him and seated… with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus” Eph 2:6 “Look! The residence of God is among human beings. He will live among them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them.” Rev 21:3
5) And finally,“one like a son of man”, that is, Christians are given the “jurisdiction” and “kingdom”, eternal authority, and all nations would serve them. “Then [A.D. 70] the kingdom, authority, and greatness of the kingdoms under all of heaven will be delivered to the people of the holy ones of the Most High. His kingdom is an eternal kingdom; all authorities will serve him and obey him.’ Dan 7:27
I have not read anything about these deductions but maybe Don Preston has addressed them. Nonetheless, your discussion here has helped us to see these things in Scripture and we do very much appreciate all of the input you guys are doing for this systematically consistent message.
