Change in thinking

In Response To: Re: The term "antichrist" (George)

I think that when I started reevaluating dispensational teaching I began to question standard end time prophecy. Most of what I've heard in church was based on a dispensational timeline and without dispensational thinking then the whole house of cards starts to shake.

The only examples I can give are general observations of Christian speech and conversations about the world in general.

Yes, I realize that the NT speaks of "many antichrists" which are in the world already, but just what does "antichrist" mean? It means "the opposite of Christ" or "against Christ" and that can include a good portion of the population of the world! Jesus said "Mat 12:30 He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad." That includes a lot of people.

I'm still working this out in my mind so I'm not real firm on the subject. Heck, I could be totally WRONG! I'm open...
