None of the books were addresses Dear Mr. TK Burk.

Written FOR us. All of the scriptures were written FOR us. For our admonition. For us to glean from. For us to read and study. For us to meditate upon.

My question for you TK, are there any biblical prophecies that are still yet unfulfilled? Also, who were the gospels written to? Who was Revelation written to?

Are you absolutely sure this is not written to you?


31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.


If not you, then who else?



Who is "YE"?

Just did a random poll today.

I asked a guy to read this verse.

I asked him who "ye" is.

He said it was himself.


Preterists now have to find and convince that guy that "ye" was someone other than him.


Hey, I should do a national poll and wipe out preterism completely....LOL

Again, more lies.

When context shows the YOU and YE refers to any given believer no matter what the year, and at other times refers solely to the people he spoke to, then the answer is obvious.

Jesus was looking at the people in Matt 24 and said YOU. That cannot apply to every Christian who ever lived so far because the END was not going to happen over and over again for two thousand years with temple being destroyed every year since Jesus said that. But in general messages of how to be saved and how to believe, that applies ot every believer ever since.

So, dude, get real.
