God has given us and explained to men spiritual truths in the following ways..

By using visible phenomena of His creation and men`s lives such as Job.
Romans 1:20
For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

By examples, figures, allegories and likenesses of history and describing the truth by symbols, signs, images, parables and designs.

Daniel 7:8
I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.

He also used the earthly sanctuary and the ceremonies to point to Christ and His purpose...

Exodus 25:8-9
8 And let them make me a sanctuary; that I may dwell among them.
9 According to all that I shew thee, after the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the instruments thereof, even so shall ye make it.

Exodus 25:40
And look that thou make them after their pattern, which was shewed thee in the mount.

This is true. Is there a relevant Theological Question?

Why do Christians not follow the truth God gives, just to name a few...
The Second Coming of Christ to take us to heaven. That Jesus will come soon and take us to His heavenly kingdom has been an core belief. That Jesus will come remains solid, but now it is not sustainable except in general terms to say nothing of Him taking us to heaven..

The 7th-Day Sabbath is another. Many Christians are beginning to accept Sabbath keeping, the Sabbath concept of 24 hours of sacred time, but others avoid the Sabbath/Seventh Day given in the Bible on which to do it.

Truth of Soul Sleep and Hell is making headway but still fighting the corruption that the devil brought in. Gods Word show us the soul sleeps in death, and man is not immortal of himself. The pagan immortality of soul got grafted into Christian belief and corrupted the truth giving in Gods Word, to say nothing of how the pagan concept of the underworld got picked up into what Christians hold toady..

Do you see the paradox in your reply to my inquiry?

Why do Christians not follow the truth God gives is paradoxical to everything modern futurism teaches! If the concern is genuinely following the truth God gives and understanding why Christians don't, the modern futurism must be abandoned in its entirety. You will experientially understand the answer to the question the minute you do so, and fully understanding the answer(s) anyone her might post will not be possible while still on the throes of modern futurism. This should be obvious from the simple fact modern futurists have never made a single true prediction in 200 years. The utter lack of truth is not only speaking bluntly to the question, "Why do Christians not follow the truth God gives?" Scripture explicitly states people who do that sort of thing should not be given any credence or followed.

Scripturally speaking, modern futurism is never stated in scripture as taught by modern futurists, especially those of the pre-tribulational premillennial variety. Theologically speaking, modern futurism is a man-made invention of the 19th century that grossly contradicts much of what historical orthodox Christianity has always taught, and its teachings are irreconcilable with both plainly read scripture, and historically orthodox Christianity. Educationally speaking, modern futurism is learned solely from other modern futurists. It's not possible to obtain modern futurism from an exegetical reading of scripture alone. It is, therefore, not likely that any answer posted to the question, "Why do Christians not follow the truth of God?" can or will be understood by the modern futurist!
