Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.(2 Corinthians 5:20 NASB) We are Christ’s ambassadors.

They typically hold that Armageddon was fulfilled in AD 70, but also maintain that the final resurrection and final judgment are still future.

The New Testament’s treatment of food sacrificed to idols appears, at first glance, to be inconsistent. In 1 Corinthians chapter 8, the apostle Paul permits eating such food under certain conditions, while in chapter 2 of the Book of Revelation it is sharply condemned.
