Last modified: Part 13 of this series Introduction Finally, it’s time to look at “Lesson 15: A Literal Earthly Utopia”, which contains Pulliam’s attempts to explain away some of the major prophecies that prove he’s misunderstanding the Apostles. After all, that essentially is what’s going on with Pulliam. As I pointed out in the previous […]

Pulliam’s Views on Christ’s Kingdom, Part 3: What the Bible Actually Teaches about the Future?
Last modified: Part 12 of this series Having looked at the redefinitions and loaded concepts Pulliam brings to discussions of Christ’s Kingdom in Part 1, and his actual discussions of it in Part 2, it’s now time to fact-check Lesson 14 of Pulliam’s book: “What Does the Future Really Hold?” I should lead into this […]
Pulliam’s Views on Christ’s Kingdom, Part 2: The Kingdom of the Messiah
Last modified: Part 11 of this series Outline (Yep, another long one!) Introduction Having looked at some of the ways Pulliam tries to prime his reader to accept his claims about “Christ” and his “Kingdom” in Lessons 8 & 10, let’s see what he goes on to say about the nature of that Kingdom, his […]
Pulliam’s Views on Christ’s Kingdom, Part 1: Loading Key Terms
Last modified: Part 10 of this series In Lessons 10-15 of “In the Days of Those Kings”, Pulliam presents his own view on Christ’s Kingdom being in people’s hearts and never on Earth, and presents his own view on the Consummation (to use Ken Ham’s “7 C’s of History” terminology). Due to how much ground […]
“This Generation” in the Great Temple & Olivet Discourses
Last modified: I know I haven’t given you anything new in about a month-and-a-half, so I might as well let you know I’m still here (just working on 4 highly-interconnected posts in my critique series) and more thoroughly explain something I just explained quickly in another post. I mentioned what the phrase “this generation” meant […]
In the Days of … WHICH Kings? Part 1: Points Pulliam Glossed Over
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 Time Gap of Daniel 9:24-27
Part 7 of this series I’m giving you a short entry this time (a little over 2,600 words) so I can finally buckle down on the proposal for my upcoming book. I also have some things to say about Pulliam’s views on Christ’s Kingdom and our eternal destiny, and I suspect I’ll move the posts […]
The Manifestation Of Our Lord Jesus Christ, Which In His Own Times He Will Disclose
Last Modified: All Part of Satan’s Plan I’ll grant that this article deals with a tense subject, given how many date-setters for Christ’s return have already been and gone with nothing to show for it but disappointment and mockery in the best cases and suicides {Facebook post; the article cited by the source where I […]
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 […]
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 […]
