Last Modified: Part 8 of this series Introduction I think it’s a good time to address the main Title of Pulliam’s book: “In the Days of Those Kings” (also the title of Lesson 17 therein). The title is a reference to Daniel 2:44 – “In the days of those kings the God of heaven will […]

The Eternal Purpose Which He Carried Out
Part 6 of this series I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: God has a way of letting me know what questions to focus on when. I wasn’t expecting this post to so effectively wind up doubling as a Passover/Easter special, yet here we are! It’s time to discuss what is perhaps Pulliam’s […]
Things Which Must Occur Swiftly … for the Occasion is At Hand
Last Modified: Part 5 of this series Sorry for the long wait, but at least you got some extra time to work your way through my longest post yet! Plus, I got to fly out to meet my new nephew and play with his older brother last weekend! So now that I’ve recuperated from that […]
Does the Bible Prophesy Any Future for Israel?
Last Modified: Outline (yep, this post is so long, I’m giving you shortcuts!): Introduction I’m no stranger to the ways that some people try to explain away all the clear statements in Scripture prophesying that Israelites would return to the land and worship at a third temple sometime after the second destruction of Jerusalem. But […]
Is Jesus Incapable of Ruling on Earth?
Last Modified: Part 4 of this series The titular question may sound trivial at first glance. Of course he’s capable (i.e., not incapable) of ruling over anyone or anything, from anywhere, as long as his Father wills it, right? Yet Pulliam insists that it’s impossible for Jesus to reign on Earth: “there are reasons why […]
Is Jesus Reigning Now? And If So, To What Extent? Part 2: Attempted Rebuttals
Last modified: Part 3 of this series In Part 1 of my blog post on this topic, I laid out the position I hold regarding the titular questions, then exegeted it from Scripture. In this post, I’ll deal with the proof-texts Pulliam offers for the notion that Jesus’ reign is present to the fullest extent […]
Is Jesus Reigning Now? And If So, To What Extent? Part 1: My Position
Part 2 of this series I split the titular question into two questions to illustrate how Pulliam (and amillennialists in general) seem to have fallen for (and therefore perpetuate) the fallacy of the complex question: where they ask a loaded question that should be split into 2 questions in order to prevent potential answers from […]
“This” or “Here”? How the Apostles REALLY Handled Old Testament Prophecies
Part 1 of this series I’ve already typed several of the articles that will be part of my series critiquing the book “In the Days of Those Kings”, by Bob Pulliam. But I decided to lead off with this one because there have been so many occasions where people have, in my presence, used the […]
Why Bother Critiquing “In the Days of Those Kings?”
Last modified: Introduction of this series I think the titular question of this post deserves an answer. I’ve seen countless bogus arguments online over the years, and managed to save my breath on a decent percentage of them. Why should this book be among the remainder? Well initially, my main reason for publishing a blog […]
The Apocalyptically-Significant Attitudes of Nick Fuentes
Last Modified: This is admittedly a strange choice for my very first post on this blog. I won’t normally waste my time talking at length about political commentators, “influencers”, extremists, or conspiracy theorists, since there’s too many of them spouting too much idiocy for me to pick one to focus on. Besides, God has given […]
