Recently, there is a lot of chatter out there about Jesus comparing his return to the days of Noah. But these people are getting it wrong.

When the Philosopher William Lane Craig Makes Biblical Apologetic Statements it is often an Ugly Result
http://triablogue.blogspot.com/2013/11/did-jesus-mispredict-future.html Here is an excerpt by Steve Hays: iii) Gospel sayings are usually contextualized. Craig is denying the accuracy of the narrative contextualization, as if that misrepresents the reference or meaning of the saying.

A very good example of this is the parable of the ten virgins. “(1) At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. (2) […]
Does Matthew 24:36 and Mark 13:32 Deny Jesus’ Deity?

“What Only Matters is that Jesus IS Returning!”
This mantra sounds nice and pious, but it is certainly not biblical reality. What is implied in this slogan is all these other “side” issues regarding the timing of the rapture, great tribulation, Antichrist were not concerns for the biblical writers. It may come as a surprise to many to learn that the biblical writers […]
