All right. Very good. Well, first of all before I session I hope you know as you said most of the questions so far have been to me. I hope a bunch email you I just posted inviting them to send their questions in for me or for Sam Time here.
We aiming that it was sentryman this when used with consolation or it would be deliverance, but I did not impose one single thing onto the text as sample says that I do I Observe from the text is the death that comes at directly directly sent.
Well, he didn't die physically the moment he died. Since physical death was not the dead kind of death. Then that means that's 15 would be in fulfillment of Hosea 13 that 15 would confirm that Michael the foundation of Paul's resurrection doctrine of 1st Corinthians 15 exactly like Hosea 13 and that Resurrection is posited at the time Number one is posited on Mount Zion Number two it is posited at the time in which the city the fortified by going to Isaiah chapter 27 the time of Israel whom the Lord had created directly from the chair of the resurrection actually more times than that but Twice it is it at the time of the destruction of the city the destruction.
The Emperor's never responded to that. He simply tried to dichotomize. He tried to create a bifurcation From in that day in Isaiah 27 and Isaiah 20 for the events of The resurrection on and on it went.
I presented one passage after another Exegetically cited or disagree the coming of the Lord in flaming fire. Well the coming of the Lord in flaming fire and Isaiah 66 great and now Sam Frost you have a seven minute recap.

Hi, this is John Sampson pastor of Kings Church in Peoria, Arizona. Taking a moment of your day to talk about Chris Arnson and the iron sharpens iron podcast. I consider Chris a true friend and a man of high integrity.
He's a skilled interviewer who's not afraid to ask the big penetrating questions. While always defending the key doctrines of the Christian faith I've always been happy to point people to this podcast knowing one of the very few safe places on the internet Where folk won't be led astray.
I believe this podcast needs to be heard far and wide. This is a day of great spiritual compromise and yet God has raised Chris up for just such a time. And knowing this it's up to us as members of the body of Christ to stand with such a ministry in prayer and in finances.
I'm pleased to do so and would like to ask you to prayerfully consider joining me in supporting iron sharpens iron financially. Would you consider sending either a one-time gift or even becoming a regular monthly partner with this ministry?
I know it would be a huge encouragement to Chris if you would. All the details can be found at iron sharpens iron Radio .com where you can click support that's iron sharpens iron radio.
Dot-com welcome back. This is Chris Sorensen. If you just tuned us in today is day number three of our debate between Don K Preston world-renowned advocate for full preterism and Sam Frost. Who is a former full preterist and today we are predominantly?
Taking questions. In fact for the remainder of the program. We are exclusively taking questions from listeners. Each debater has two minutes to answer the question when it is addressed to him and His opponent has 90 seconds to respond.
And now we have a question for Sam Frost. This is from Timothy in Fremont, California and Timothy asks. I just have to pull up his question. Let's see here Timothy asks. Let's see. Had it right in front of me.
Oh here it is. Sam are you a Roman Catholic? I notice that you quote from the American Bible and the Douay-Rheims Bible and these are Catholic versions.
Don Preston you have 90 seconds to respond.
Don Is Don there?
Sorry, yeah, I'm sorry.
Yes, so it's you have 90 seconds to respond.
I'm sorry. Yeah, there's not really an awful lot to as he's not a Catholic and that's fine. But once again, he appeals what we must believe. That that really proves nothing and what's interesting to me here is that okay in Christendom You can have all millennial is imposed.
We cannot have preterism. We can have certain degrees of preterism. But not all of it, even though the people in our preterism. We will be full preterist. Even in T. Wright who is not a full prep on many many occasions.
That if he is consistent with the things that he says, he would be a full preterist and he goes. Oh, no. No, no. No, I'm not that but once again, even his adversary say no it being. You must be a full any day of any creed, okay, you're out you're out of time.
Don.
Okay, now we have to go to our next question which will be for Don Preston and Let's see. Actually. Okay, here it is. Yeah we have Justin in Jemison, Alabama. S Don Preston. Since you believe that all prophetic parts of the Bible have been fulfilled.
Do you believe humanity and The present universe will come to an end at some point in the future. Or do you think they will last forever if you believe they will last forever forever? How do you get around the laws of thermodynamics which show the universe's?
The universe to be inevitably winding down out of energy if you believe that Humanity will end and why wouldn't God reveal anything about this in his word? Especially since God revealed details about creation to us in Genesis 1 and 2 and you can let me know if we need any of that repeated and you have.
You have two minutes to respond on okay. Well, that's quite a quite thermal dynamics. I admit that for that is unequivocally posited in the context of the time. A new people with a new name. Point number three as I pointed out a few moments ago.
And that is in the new heaven and new speaking to old covenant to create new heaven a new following. It's come generation. I'm more than willing to accept. And Sam frost you have 90 seconds to respond.
Yeah, I think the Bible. Out of time before the midway break and we are going to enter into that break right now.
If anybody would like to join us with a question of your own our email address is Chris Arnzen at gmail .com. Chris Arnzen at gmail .com. Keep your questions brief. Please. Let us know who the question is for whether it's for Don Sam or both and Also, please give us at least your first name.

It's a longer than normal break because grace life radio 90 point 90 .1 FM in Lake City, Florida Requires of us a longer break in the middle of the show because they air this show twice daily in a pre-recorded format and the FCC requires them to Localize iron sharpens iron radio to Lake City, Florida with their own public service announcements and other items that they broadcast while we air our globally heard commercials, so please Try to write down as much information as possible provided by our advertisers as you can so you can more successfully and frequently patronize them and also, please Write in questions and Specifically or should I say more importantly we need questions for Sam Frost because we have an abundance of Questions for Don Preston and I would request especially that the questions for Sam Frost come from those especially not exclusively, but especially from Don Preston's position.

If you'd like to join us on the air, our email address is Chris Arnzen at gmail .com. Chris Arnzen at gmail .com and We would prefer That those who are siding with Don Preston Send in questions for Sam Frost.
Since we have an abundance of questions for Don Preston already. But I'm not going to exclude more questions for Don. I just wanted to make it clear that we're in more urgent need of Sam's of questions for Sam we have.
Let's see, we have Justin and Jemison, Alabama. Who asked Sam Frost? Do you believe any prophetic material in the Bible was fulfilled in 8070? Hello, Sam. Do you believe any prophetic material in the Bible was fulfilled in 8070.
That's Justin and Jemison, Alabama's question.
Yeah, okay, Don Preston. You now have 90 seconds to respond.
Don Don are you there?
I'm sorry. I turned my turned it off. Here we go. Yes, of course. I'm glad to know that Sam still admits that some question is how much well one once again Luke chapter 21 in verse 22 Discussing that all the things that are written most revelation chapter 10 7 and following that in the days of the sounding of the seventh Trump is a lord was got way enough.
Only one city bottom. That was Old Covenant, Jerusalem.
Okay, we have a question from Anthony in Smithtown, Long Island, New York for Don Preston if Jesus died for the whole world Which includes the earth and the earth will always remain the way it is unredeemed.
They wouldn't that make Jesus an incomplete Savior. Can you read that again?
Sure.
If Jesus died for the whole world, which includes the earth and the earth will always remain the way it is unredeemed. Then wouldn't that make Jesus an incomplete Savior?
I'm going to assume that I understand the question. I'm not sure perhaps some clarification would be in order. I'm not sure if Anthony material is. I find nowhere in the Bible in animals. I find nowhere in the Bible that Jesus died to redeem trees.
It for mankind. When Jesus gave the Great Commission He said go into all the world and preach the gospel to every crummy saved and Romans chapter a redemption. By the way, the redemption that was very near and oh, by the way, folks, I'm back.
No apology whatsoever. Statements in the New Testament. I don't find anywhere in shows obedient to Christ.
Okay, Sam Frost you have 90 seconds.
Yeah, that's good right to the heart of the matter. I want you to see that what we see right now in the maternity I'm and everything that's ending it I'm an end be compared with the glorious and waits and eager Expectation of the incarnation of the word who became dust who became of the image of Adam himself Wally and the hell in the incarnation with a unification and of God placed under his feet.
We're out of time everything off into another world, okay. All right, we have. Let's see. We haven't heard from a listener in Italy in quite a long time. Lorenzo in Perugia or Perugia Italy and I'm sorry if I'm mispronouncing that Lorenzo.
This is a question for Sam Frost if I understand correctly. You said that you don't think second. Thessalonians 1 Talks about the second coming of Christ. How can you say that if right in second? Thessalonians 2 chapter 1 pulses concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and are being gathered to him and then gives the signs That must proceed that coming.
You have two minutes Sam and then Don will have 90 seconds.
Yeah, I'm currently working on a book on second Thessalonians and noting all of the right.
Don Preston you have 90 seconds.
Once again, Sam Frost ignores the fact that second second Thessalonians chapter 1 is drawing directly on Isaiah chapters in flaming fire to take. He ignores the fact of the Lord in Translation or Jesus is rejection.
He condemns grammar to it ignores the court. Okay.
We have a question now for. Let's see here. We have a question now for. Don Preston. Actually, I'm sorry. It's a question for both of our debaters. This is from and I'm sorry if I'm mispronouncing your name.
Jeroen in Emmen the Netherlands. Emmen the Netherlands. This is for both. Debaters will start with Sam Frost. You each have two minutes. When sin came into the world. Did it cause any changes in the biological nature of plants humans or animals?
And if so, will it change back to its original state in the new heaven and earth?
Sam you have two minutes. I believe that Paul makes it where he goes in. Okay, we have.
90 seconds or actually, I'm sorry two minutes since it's for both debaters for Don Preston.
Okay, it's a great question Sam wants to convince us. Bring instantaneous in. Who remind you. Sam. Frost is on record saying there is only one kind of death in the Bible. That's physical death. Death in the Bible and since it the wages of sin is death.
I am forgiven of sin as a child of God that I have no sin. John chapter 8 verse 51 a passage I appeal to him a paradigm which he imposes. He will never experience this Instant. Okay. We have a question for Don Preston.
From Eddie in Hoppog Long Island, New York. If there is only one body of Christ and that body already glorified. Then you yourself as a member of Christ one body are a glorified member. Therefore when you sin you do not.
Therefore when you sin you do so in a glorified state. So the question is can you still sin in heaven? If not, what accounts for that. If so and sin always produces some form of suffering. Is there suffering in heaven.
And Don you have two minutes.
Let me finish writing this down as I understand it meant to be glorified in So many passages of Scripture by the way in second best punishment of the persecutors and the relief from persecution Of the Thessalonians it would be in the day when he comes to be good even in we might have a concept of glory that it is we removed and divorced from that ancient was a matter of vindicated to become the person.
Okay. Sam Frost you have 90 seconds to respond. Well, this again goes right to the heart of the matter of Jesus, I'm already glorified that yes in heaven. Because it has nothing to do is gone on both.
He could purely knowledge. It's a purely intellectual whether you say nothing nothing even glorification as Bob has just admitted. And that's it. If you're vindicated that you're alive and now he's using ancient Near Easterns for 1900 years by being dead.
Then we are going to go to our final break right now and after that, we will resume taking questions and Once again, our email address is Chris Arnzen at gmail .com. Chris Arnzen at gmail .com give us your first name at least your city and state of residence people keep sending in questions without their city state or country of residence, please correct that and We look forward to hearing from you and we'll be back after these messages.

I frequently get requests from listeners for church recommendations. A church I've been strongly recommending as far back as the 1980s is Grace Covenant Baptist Church in Flemington, New Jersey pastored by Alan Dunn.
Grace Covenant Baptist Church believes. It's God's prerogative to determine how he shall be worshiped and how he shall be represented in the world. They believe churches need to turn to the Bible to discover what to include in worship and how to worship God in spirit and truth.
Grace Covenant Baptist Church endeavors to maintain a God-centered focus. Reading preaching and hearing the Word of God singing psalms hymns and spiritual songs. Baptism and communion are the scriptural elements of their corporate worship performed with faith joy and sobriety.

Welcome back. This is Chris Arnzen and I actually have a question for our debaters. Who last had a question directed toward them? Was it Don or Sam? You remember. Okay. All right. We have John in Carlisle, Pennsylvania.
Who has a question for Sam as a partial preterist? I find many points of agreement with Don Preston that you seem to differ on. Are you a partial preterist? I assume that the debate was to compare the differences between the two views.
Also, don't you find the use of the phrase? second coming. Misleading since that term appears nowhere in Scripture using it seems to imply that only one coming remained after the incarnation when in fact.
There are two the destruction of Jerusalem and at the end of history on the last day. Please comment. You have two minutes Don Preston you have 90 seconds to respond.
All right, very well. Well, I found it more than interesting. Old in 8070. Not all of it, but some so that makes him a partial preterist. He may not like the time. He says I don't I don't believe that 8070 was the coming of the Lord.
Well, once again, I've said he stands firmly on church history in this regard. Commenting on Zechariah chapter 12 to 14 and Isaiah 66 that one could literally say that the Lord came at our time. We're out of time.
Manifest. We're out of time.
Now we have a question. I'm usually giving first names Cities and states only but since this person is fairly renowned in this subject I will give his full name. His name is Edward E Stevens president of International Preterist Association and he has a question for Don Preston and He asks let me just pull up that quote that question.
You teach that Jesus divested himself Divested himself of his individual flesh and bone human body at the Ascension and that his human flesh and bone body Was then totally consumed in fire before Jesus entered into the most holy place of heaven.
Two questions about that. This implies that Jesus no longer has his individual human body in heaven now. But you claim that Jesus does have a body in heaven now. Are you referring to the collective body of the church?
If so, when did that collective body arrive in heaven? And if it was in 8070 Do you believe that Jesus was without a body in heaven during the time between the Ascension and the Parousia? That will be the first question and there's a quick follow-up.
Yeah, I'll just I'll just let it stick at the one.
Okay, I am on position. Suggest that I have denied that Jesus has a body in heaven is simply misrepresent on that. But there's no man has seen or can see Jesus back to the father.
Okay, we're out of time and.
We have one time for one more question, but this will be for Sam Frost and.
And.
This is from John in Weatherford, Texas. You made a good point that we should understand terms such as body death and resurrection as a first century Hebrew would understand them. But shouldn't we also understand the time statement words?
Such as near at hand and shortly the same way assuming they are just as inspired as others. Especially as found in the book of Revelation that is book ended with such statements. And You have two minutes Sam and then Don will have 90 seconds.
That's an excellent question and let me ask you have I ever found me 30 40 years away. And I say to anybody I'll be there soon the possibility of five years. When I say to anybody I'll I am near I'm close by.
I don't mean I'm five the normal usage of that language 37 years off, but I guess near means 37 years and what I mean by that is eight years. I'm gonna Lexical million miles away from the word. Okay, Don, you have 90 seconds.
Well, it's interesting to me that frost sets himself against the sword stands on his stories of the modern day coming now bringing my Recompense 20 is quote really near. Okay. We're out of time. In fact, we're out of time for the program.
Wow, this did go by like a speeding bullet and I actually hope to have our debaters return to debate another Subcategory if you will under the umbrella of full preterism. We don't have confirmations from them yet.
I just Impose this challenge to them both right now. But hopefully you'll be hearing good news from you soon. And I am really sorry folks all of you who took the time to write Questions excellent questions that we didn't have time to read.
Hopefully if our debaters return You will be able to have your questions read on air at that time. And I want you all to always remember for the rest of your lives that Jesus Christ is a far greater Savior.
Then you are a sinner.
