Re: The War Against the Pre-Tribulation Rapture.
Was Jesus raptured or John the Baptist? You are to stand and fight the enemy and do so with faith. Pre-tribs will be wringing their hands as well as gnashing their teeth IMO when the SHTF and there is no flying away from their testing.

I do believe that another revival is on our horizons and this will truly be a changing time for all...

Thanks for the post!

06120437491t9 What good would it do, the devil has the USA by the throat now and he intends to drag it down with him, as is obvious to anyone who reads the bible. Apart from which the rapture is an event that is worldwide and simultaneous, the entire population of the USA is only about 1 in 25 of those involved.

judethcflo9 You are holding fast to the false doctrines of man. Read the message to the angel of the church in Philadelphia. It actually says the exact opposite of what you are saying.

Rev 3:7 ¶ And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth;

Rev 3:8 I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.

Rev 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.

Rev 3:10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.

Rev 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

Re: The War Against the Pre-Tribulation Rapture.
The one who needs to do some research is you.



Irenaeus 130AD to 202AD was a disciple of Polycarp 69AD to 155AD, Polycarp was a disciple of John, who walked with Christ and wrote revelation.



Irenaeus had this to say in his teaching.

Against Heresies 5.29



“Those nations however, who did not of themselves raise up their eyes unto heaven, nor returned thanks to their Maker, nor wished to behold the light of truth, but who were like blind mice concealed in the depths of ignorance, the word justly reckons “as waste water from a sink, and as the turning-weight of a balance — in fact, as nothing;”

(1) so far useful and serviceable to the just, as stubble conduces towards the growth of the wheat, and its straw, by means of combustion, serves for working gold. And therefore, when in the end the Church shall be suddenly caught up from this, it is said, “There shall be tribulation such as has not been since the beginning, neither shall be.”

(2) For this is the last contest of the righteous, in which, when they overcome they are crowned with incorruption.”




The catching up or rapture.

Re: The War Against the Pre-Tribulation Rapture.
The rapture doctrine brings division. Without it, there would not be a division. No division would exist.

Since we know that Jesus Christ and God are NOT the author of confusion, we also know that the rapture doctrine does not come from them.

The author of confusion is Satan.

It is Satan's desire from the beginning to bring division and cast down truth. He is the one that attempts to supplement and supplant lies for truth and befoul the perfect will of God.

If there is a rift in doctrine, for those seeking the truth, it is only by removing the doctrine which creates the rift that you will see that the testimony of Jesus Christ exists separate and apart from the doctrine that causes that rift. The testimony of Jesus Christ still stands and cannot be undone and holds true that it wont be undone with the removal of a doctrine that does not come from Him.


1 Timothy 6
3If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; 4He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, 5Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.

Those who understand why the rapture is a false doctrine, are able to do so by holding to the realization that the rapture doctrine relies on doing what the preceding verse in scripture describes.

blinkerrose So why are you helping him then? It says very specifically in Revelations that we will be out of here. Those who are left behind are left so because their hearts where not right with the Lord when He comes. You are saying to people that getting right with the Lord is something that they can put off. Carry on down the road to hell, there is plenty of time to get saved later. That message is not of the Lord.

a careful examination of the statements of faith (if any are provided) of the rabid rapture deniers usually shows other, more severe problems regarding orthodoxy.

unorthodox beliefs are rampant on glp, where rapture discussions devolve into flame wars.

we must know the Bible intimately, pray for wisdom insight and discernment, and let the Holy Spirit keep us pointed toward Jesus and the good news.

Re: The War Against the Pre-Tribulation Rapture.
That is a very stupid girl.

She said that attacks on Pre-trib rapture were attempts to destroy the very foundation of Christianity. When did Pre-Trib rapture become the very foundation of Christianity?

Then she spewed that Jesus suffered on the cross for Christians and so Christians did not need to suffer. Of course that completely ignores the fact that millions of Christians have suffered and died since Jesus died on the Cross. In fact ISIS is chopping off Christian heads all the time in Syria. Israel bombs Christian communities in GAZA all the time. Christians in the U.S. never come to their defense. But somehow she is "special" and different than other Christians past and present?

Then she says that "actions" will not get you to heaven but just "faith" alone will. So I have faith that Jesus is the Son of God and so I can go out and murder, lie, steal and cheat and it does not matter because I have faith and so can do whatever I want to do? If that is true then why was most of the bible written which tells you things you need to do? Like honor the Sabbath?

That is one lazy female in the video. she wants an easy way to heaven and an easy life where she is not responsible for anything she does.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 55699208

let me define the Sabbath for you. It is the day of rest... yes, with God, when He rested after work marvelously done.
Guess what... do not strive, and do not strive for the works, being rested with the Lord Jesus Christ at all times, for the Work is finished.

You can learn a lot about what kind of ʻChristiansʻ we are dealing with every time this subject comes up. Look at all the hateful and nasty comments people are leaving because they do not believe in a catching away. These are the Christians I really donʻt want to be stuck with after TSHTF. Angry, bitter, nasty name callers.

Lol,Of course not,I already stated that I'm not 100% convinced of there not being a pre-rapture.
99%ish is pretty damn close to 100 though.

The thing that gets to me is that pre-triber's want to be the Philadelphia church,and Sardis church,and every other church.They want to be like the Apostles,and they are worthy enough also to be raptured before the tribulation in Revelation .
Israel always went through tribulations through out the bible,yet pre-triber's are different?!

Look at the story of Joseph and the tribulations he went through.
His brother's(Israel) sold him into slavery.
That makes Joseph the remnant(bride) of Israel.

Genesis 45:5-7
And now, do not be distressed and do not be angry with yourselves for selling me here, because it was to save lives that God sent me ahead of you.
For two years now there has been famine in the land, and for the next five years there will be no plowing and reaping.
But God sent me ahead of you to preserve for you a remnant on earth and to save your lives by a great deliverance.

Who are the pre-triber's in this story? Joseph?one of the other 11 brother's?

Re: The War Against the Pre-Tribulation Rapture.
Go and do research into when it came about, you maybe surprised it not what you think.

This is something that has been debunked time and time again. Of course you do not want to think you have to get tried in your faith, of course you do every day of your life but you nor I am so wonderful that everyone who is not us but Christians to will be left here to sulfur while we are just cozy and safe. The Lord God did not save the Apostle from their death but after, are you better than these? The rapture theory and that is it, a theory new as it was no believed before 1800s.

If you find yourself here during the very bad things going on, by the way it already is going on, what you going to say That The Lord lied, he did not, man did. Or are you not one of the elect of God who sees and stands?

No one has a war on you, it is a warning to you not against you.
 Quoting: hankie

John Nelson Darby invented Rapture theology in Britain in 1830. Over the centuries since then, many Bible scholars and extremely intelligent people bought into it, as Hal Lindsay and Jack Van Impe in the current day. There was no such doctrine prior to that dreamed up by Darby, and no scriptural basis for a rapture-type event before Christ's Second Coming at the end of time.

That said, the Lord promises to take care of His own. While that promise primarily refers to the salvation of their souls; he will either spare them from trials by taking their physical lives, or provide for them through trials. Anyone recall having ever seen so many obituaries for people of all ages than in the past few years?
