419: Sola Scriptura debate charts by Pat Donahue

The Answer To This Supposed Difficulty: v.2 is talking about "out of the LAND," not out of the WHOLE EARTH (my opponent would agree that it would have to be limited in some way, because he agrees that idolatry will continue, in at least some part of the world, right up until the time of the end of the world). - but everything will pass at the end of the world The verse is talking about "out of the land" of the Messiah's rule. In the Jewish age, one could commit idolatry and still be a child of God, because he was a child of God simply by being born a Jew. This is not true in the church age, the worship of idols does not exist among true children of God (by spiritual birth), because if one commits idolatry he ceases to be a true child of God. Idols do not exist in the land of the Messiah's rule. And so idols did PASS "out of the (Messiah's) land" in the time period of the first coming of Christ. And so did true prophets !
