James,
Hope is a strength and gift from God.
<<There are critics who do not scruple to affirm that the apostles were mistaken, and that time has proved the fallacy of their anticipations. They tell us that either they misunderstood the teaching of their Master, or that He too was under an erroneous impression. This is of course to set aside the claims of the apostles to speak authoritatively as the inspired messengers of Christ, and to undermine the very foundations of the Christian faith>>
The Bible says that there will be mockers and we can not change the truth to suit them. Only by faith can they see. Why are you zooming in on the timing of the return of the Lord. In a Jewish Wedding the Groom awaits the signal from his father that it is time to get his bride. The Messiah referred to his return as the time the father knows only. I can not sell out the Glorious Kingdom of Jesus as easily as you can. It will from the scriptures I have read be a peaceful and righteous kingdom. There has not been peace on the earth since his death. He even told them not to think he was coming to bring peace no a sword. The second coming will be the time of peace. How about Ezekiel 36, Jeremiah 33, etc.. etc... All the promises to the seed of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob that are forever. Is it forever but just not for all of them? Would He make a promise knowing they would fail and not receive it? What kind of portrayl is this?
Emile has to use the Septugint that most people on this thread do not have available to support his claim for the land promises to Abraham to not really mean what it says. Please James Jesus was born a Jew and died the King of the Jews and He will return as the Jewish Messiah.

P.S. Thank you for using more scripture, were they yours?
