    I always learn from Dr Ehrman and the discussion about "when prophesy fails," reminds me what Michael Wise was saying about Crisis Cults in his book, "The First Messiah." It unfortunately seems to explain the same phenomena today...Thank you for posting the interview.

    I lost my faith at around 8- 9 years of age. I'm not far off being 50 years an atheist. It dawned on me just a few days ago, something that had never occurred to me, that it was the best thing to have ever happened to me.

    I noticed you leave room for believers to know the truth without destroying their faith if they wish to keep it.

    I am an atheist myself however I appreciate that you consider that some people need to hang on to their faith but need to be careful.
    That's the sort of message we really need in this world.

      This guy is attacking false religion which is known as Babylon the Great in Relation 17:5, because in chapter 18:2-4 it says to get out of Babylon (or get out of false religion) because it says in John 4:24 - God is a Spirit, and those worshiping him must worship with SPIRIT and TRUTH.” So then you see this guy is just attacking these religions that were created by Satan in 2Thessalonians chapter 2 goes on and explains that Satan in verse 9 has created these churches that preach the LIE, verse 11, because Satan is the father of the Lie ( John 8:44) It also states in 1Corinthians 1:10 - You must be completely United and there shall be NO DIVISIONS. Also Romans 16:17 - warns you about those who cause DIVISIONS and avoid them. But that is all we have today in Religions is Divided churches from the work of Satan (2 Th 2:9) So you can see that he didn’t stop in the garden of Eden and he is going to keep going until Jesus destroys him (Revelation 20:10)

      The Biblical Apocalypse & its Real World Consequences:
      I want you to understand my friend, understand me well:
      The church of the Lord Jesus Christ is not sectarian.
      The church of the Lord Jesus Christ is not a denominational body.
      It is not one of many churches.
      “IT IS THEE CHURCH!”
      There is no other church!
      And, if you wanna go to heaven, you get in that church, and that church alone.
      Because that is the only church that the Lord Jesus will save.
      Thst is the only church that He shed His Blood for!
      And if you’re not in it, you’ll be lost when He comes back.
      And any church that claims to be married to Christ, must ware His Name!
      A Cappella singing is the only singing that’s commanded in the New Testament church.
      (EPHESIANS 5:19; COLOSSIANS 3:16)
      Revelation means “we win” only to the faithful church that Christ built on the day of Pentecost.
      The New Testament church doctrine is “Nominal Christianity.”
      All other doctrines are:
      “de-nominational,” or,
      “DEMOTED DOCTRINE.”

    Suppose Jesus had not been put on the cross. No resurrection would have happened then. Jesus would have lived on to see his mission mature and complete before dying a natural death. In that case, what would Christianity have been like today? It seems a dead Jesus is the foundation of Christianity and not a living one!!!!!

    "And since history forever repeats itself, the Bible, which figuratively describes its process, will forever remain the unique source, the true collection of historical events and of human revolutions, as much for bygone periods as for those that will succeed one another in the future."
    "The cyclic history begins, at the 6th chapter of Genesis, with the narrative of the Flood; it ends, at the 20th chapter with the Book of Revelation, in the blazing flames of Judgment Day."
    "Each period of 1200 years begins and ends with a catastrophe; human evolution expands and grows in the space of two scourges. Fire and water, the agents of all material mutations, work together during the same amount of time and each on an opposite region of the Earth."

    I read everything by Bart Ehrman I could get my hands on when I researched the bible over twenty years ago.
    It could be the Red Dragon sitting on the throne. The sacrifice is when he, Christ, Adam, wields the fiery sword guarding the way to the Tree of Life on the day of vengeance AS judgment, setting up the abomination of desolation in him, the temple without one stone left standing upon another. He then returns from this Apocalypse, within the same generation, with the chastisements of God, the just demands of the law according to the spirit, placed on him as the suffering servant fulfilling the way of the Lord in the desert.
    In this sense, the Red Dragon is the personized Demon Sin set to devour the Christ child. Satan is "The" Dragon. Christ rules with an iron rod over David's kingdom, preserving it for him. David, the Morning Star, the Ancient Serpent of Old, becomes much greater than before, as the Ancient One of Days who takes a seat upon a throne on the Mount of Assembly,.
    Jesus came to break down the gates of Hell (Abyss/ Netherworld/ Hades) to save the sinners behind its gates. He doesn't welcome them into the promised land until they have been refined and their dross removed, their impurities. Jesus is the everlasting source of salvation and the everlasting pool of fire and sulfur is for refining them, as silver, bronze, iron, lead, and tin are refined. He is with your always, until the end of the ages. He then hands the kingdom over to David, his Father, and he ascends beyond the heavens themselves.
    The warth of God is stored up in his storehouse for the sacrifice. There is only one sacrifice. Christ is born of a woman, born under the law. The bible presents this plan as the sacrifice. Adam's sin is prophetic of the sacrifice of being made to be sin. Christ, Adam, is a third party to this world and, indeed, the heavens themselves, as the mediator. David, the Morning Star, is the ruler of this world, your king who will be raised up for you.
    The sin in the world is because the gates of hell have been opened. Those corrupted by sin are being purified. The Ancient Serpent of Old is the Cornerstone of his work of salvation begun as the first Adam.
    ---------------------------------
    Is God unjust, humanly speaking, to inflict his wrath?
    Of course not! For how else is God to judge the world?
    But if God's truth redounds to his glory through my falsehood, why am I still being condemned as a sinner?
    And why not say-- as we are accused and as some claim we say-- that we should do evil that good may come of it? Their penalty is what they deserve. (Rom 3:5-8 NABO)
    ----------------------------------
    The way of the Lord in the desert needs to be put into context with the previous passage:
    Sacrifice: -Indeed, she has received from the hand of the LORD double for all her sins. (Isa 40:2 NABO)
    Resurrection: -Make straight in the wasteland a highway for our God! (Isa 40:3 NABO)
    Just as it is appointed that human beings die - be judged - appear a second time, (so also Christ) Heb 9:27-28.
    ----------------------------------
    Just as silver, bronze, iron, lead, and tin are gathered into a furnace and smelted in the roaring flames, so I will gather you together in my furious wrath, put you in, and smelt you. (Eze 22:20 NABO)
    With that said, that being a standard interpretation, this is David's kingdom. Christ is preserving it for him. Separating the promises of David from Christ's can be difficult because Christ also has the promises of David. W
