I read that one to my wife. We laughed.

Good one DB!

I enjoy having a good laugh, DB.

That one hit me just right(visualized).

I had trouble eating dinner at first, wanting to bust up at the table.

Excellent comeback!

When in history did this event happen?

Sean do you think days will be less than twenty four hours according to that verse?

Not really, it likely means that the last 3.5 years will be shortened to keep the planet from complete annihilation.

Now show me when this happened in 70ad.

Thanks.

How to know that the texts of the New Testament, Mark and John and Revelation, and etc. were written to and for a 1st century audience? Real simple:

1.) They were written in the 1st century
2.) They were written in the lingua franca of the 1st century
3.) They reference events that took place in the 1st century
4.) They contain geographical, demographical, and historical elements that trace to the 1st century
5.) The cast of characters that they contain are all 1st century people
6.) They were disseminated in the 1st century
7.) They were copied and preserved in the 1st century
8.) They were used as evangelistical tools in the 1st century
9.) They were recognized and quoted as authoritative in the 1st century
10.) The intended audience who first read them lived in the 1st century

"Dear Sean,

I am enclosing in this letter an autographed autograph of my Gospel, which I took the liberty of translating into 17th century English, so you could understand it. Hope you like it.

Sincerely,

John"

Sean, who was Theophilus and why did Luke address his Gospel to him? And in what century did Theophilus live and die?
