Re: Defending the Pre-trib rapture **** New and Improved
Well, so much rationalization here... No witness or testimony based on KNOWLEDGE.

The critical Knowledge Jesus refers to in Matt 16:13-20. Where HE Asks The Apostles: "WHO Do You Say I AM?" Only Peter KNOWS... "Thou are The Christ! Son of The Living God!" and Jesus Says that ONLY The Father Could Have Put That KNOWLEDGE Upon Your Heart."

It is "Upon This Rock" (Having Been Given KNOWLEDGE Of WHO Jesus IS BY The Father) upon which HE Builds HIS Church...

KNOWING WHO HE IS is what Calls Us Unto The Father... HIS Invitation To Be Born-Again and Attend The Wedding Feast For HIS Son (Matt 22:1-14)


The Concise Witness of The Born-Again Life, from Ezekiel ch 36:
26. A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
27. And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.


Further Witness By Jesus in Matt 13:11-15 after Disciples ask HIM, "Why do YOU Teach using parables?" To which HE answers in verse 15: (my paraphrase) "So that those who seek with their head, unable to Hear/See The Gospel with their heart Will NOT Understand: lest they be converted and I should have to heal them!"

Looking for "proofs"? The only place to look is in your heart.... How much are you willing to Trust God????


Then there's St. Pauls Witness to Timothy in 2nd Tim 2:6 where Paul says that those who would preach/teach/minister "Ought First Be Partakers of The Fruits"; meaning Ezekiel 36:26-27 Born-Agains.... But, in Laodicea, the clergy have divinity degrees and denominational credentials. They aren't Partakers, and that's why they can't Witness To You or guide you in your efforts to find Relationship With God.


There's no KNOWING before you Come Unto The Father. You have to Come Unto HIM in brokenness and out of Faith. Christ Jesus Made The Way For Us on calvary. Up to us to decide to Trust God with all we are and then Take Action and Tell HIM So...

By the time every human being hear's God's Angel of Rev 14:7 Give Witness, it will be too late. The Age Of Faith will have ended.

From then on, you are either Of-HIM and live your life Through HIM, or you are on your own...



Believing in rapture is proof you aren't Born-Again.

Jesus Witnesses in Matt 7:21-23 that HE Only KNOWS Those Who "Do The Will Of MY Father Which Art In Heaven".

Only by Being Ezekiel 36:26-27 Born-Again are we Enabled to KNOW and DO Father's Will...

Bible is very clear.
Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.

Who cares about the word rapture. Let’s use words called up. Bible aka the word of God is more important than what you feel in your heart, I mean that kindly, I’m sorry if it sounds offensive. All love brother. Yes it is at the very end when we get called up.

No its not.. the actual rapture means fusing with your Father Fragment. Enoch was the first to do that on this world...About 1000 had done so when Jesus came and about 1000 more since then..

Some folks on earth and Christianity is not a requirment.. will fuse during the magnetic reversal. This is fact.

Re: Defending the Pre-trib rapture **** New and Improved
Matthew 22:1-14 is Jesus' Witness about HIS Purpose and what Christianity is all about...

1. And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said,
2. The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son,


3. And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come.
4. Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage.
5. But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise:
6. And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them.
7. But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.


8. Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy.
9. Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage.
10. So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests.


11. And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:
12. And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
13. Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.


14. For many are called, but few are chosen.


Your "wedding garment" is your Born-Again Heart... Got one?

Presumably the wedding crasher really wanted to be there... He just wasn't acceptable. No Wedding Garment...


Jesus Concludes HIS Witness with "For many are Called, but few are Chosen."

HE means there, in verse 14, that Few Choose To Answer God's Call.

Everyone who KNOWS WHO Jesus Is was Called...
Only a Few will choose-Elect to make their surrender and give their all Unto The Father...


Who are The Very Elect of Matt 24:21-24? They're those who Chose-Elected to give their all Unto The Father... It is for their sake Jesus Says that the days will be shortened (lest no flesh remain alive!)


Claim to Trust God, do you?

Faith without works is dead... The "works" that make your Faith Alive is Manifesting Your Heart Unto The Father and Taking Action Through Jesus By your Faith.


But hey, aren't you waiting to be on of The Taken?
Do you realize Those Taken are to be found dead in the ditch with "eagles" (birds of carrion) eating their flesh?

See yourself as one of the 5 wise virgins?
Nothing honorable in that...

The so-called "wise" virgins would not share their oil, or even suggest they all remain to greet The Groom... Better 10 with only 5 lights than only 5 with lights, but so easy to misinterperet Scripture. Those who aren't Partakers Of The Fruits do it all the time...


The Time Is Now, if you're ever gonna be HIS!


Maranatha!!!

I will not argue with you. I will pray for you though brother. There is only one name under heaven for which all men must be saved. No man comes to the father except through Jesus Christ.

Enoch???

Got it all understood your way, right?
May as well try a serenade of My Way when begging for entry unto Heaven...

Matt 7:22 has those Christians reminding Jesus that they "did Miracles, Cast-Out demons, and Prophesied In HIS Name". They were hoping to get admitted to Heaven.

But they were never Born-Again!
Jesus Tells them: "Depart from ME, you who work iniquity: I KNOW YOU NOT!"

21. Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23. And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.


Like those who The King invited to HIS Wedding Feast originally. Too busy doing their own thing... Believing their carnal heart rather than finding their way to Trust God Fully.

"Many were Called, but few are Chosen!"


God Bless you if you can make the choice to Trust God Fully with all you are and ever will be.

NOPE. Like HELL you didn't.

You're trying to split hairs.

YOU are TRYING to claim that just because Acts records the "moment" that they decided to preach ONLY to Hebrews - that the decision LASTED THROUGHOUT their lives.

HISTORY PROVES your ASSumption to be WRONG.

Thomas to India.
Andrew to all sorts of places.
Matthew to Africa.
John ended up on Patmos.


Where did he say "Paul only to the "J.w's"????? He didn't. Yet your thread buddy says Paul ONLY for gentiles.

Thread: The "Body of Christ" understand right division and follow Paul

The bible covers the entire past, present and future of humankind... in all that time there is only ONE individual GOD directs the gentile, non-priesthood, world to for salvation... 13 books... Romans thru Philemons and that individual is Paul... ANYTHING else is false doctrine... do you believe that...

You do realize that what I said is correct? Not sure what point you are making towards me. I said pre trib is not a thing. Then you said same thing I think. We do not go through bowls of wrath. If you think that we do, I can try if you like to show you why you are wrong. All in all we should be in unity and not argue about things like this matter. We would do better preaching the gospel(which is not end times timeline).

Re: Defending the Pre-trib rapture **** New and Improved
...


A quick look up on [link to biblehub.com] and Strongs KJV finds the following below.

Pastor is used elsewhere in the bible. It is translated from the word for shepherd which was used everywhere in the OT and NT.

Pastor from Strongs 4166 poimen – properly, a shepherd ("pastor" in Latin)

Bishop is used elsewhere in the bible. It is in 1Peter and in Acts. They just translated it to a different word in both instances. Only in the letters to Paul did they translate it to Bishop.

Bishop - Strongs 1985 episkopos a superintendent, an overseer


Deacon is used elsewhere the New Testament. It is used many times in Matthew, Mark and John. There are 29 occurrences of this word in the New Testament.

Deacon - Strongs 1249 diakonos a servant, minister
 Quoting: Achduke7


I'm not interested in what Strongs says... I'm interested in SCRIPTURE...

what I'm waiting for is SCRIPTURE where Jesus, or ANY of the 12, went to a pastor or deacon... or where ANY one of the 12 mention the body of Christ, or where they AREN't under the law...... was Caiaphas a pastor or high priest?

or give me the name of just 1 "Christian" church, like Pauls church, that has Rabbi's, or a high priest, and keep ALL the ceremonial holidays and laws required under Jud*sm... conversely name me 1 synagogue where they have pastors and deacons and DON'T keep these things...

do you go to a church or Synagogue... and why not both, if they teach the same things...

where's the SCRIPTURE?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77237285


Strongs is scripture. It is referencing the original greek. They are the same words in kjv translated differently. Paul and the apostles used the very same words that men commissioned by the King of England translated. The scripture is the greek. Your scripture that is translated has bias. Once again Paul and the apostles wrote and used the same words.
 Quoting: Achduke7


yeah, Paul and HIS apostles ... show me scripture where Jesus went to a pastor

and STILL waiting on a "Christian" church with rabbi's and high priests ...

ever been to a Messianic spam service, I have,... they still call them rabbi's and priest... never once heard the term pastor or deacon... I guess they just started using those terms again, after they didn't for awhile...LOL

History, serious Bible study and scripture itself proves ALL of his "arguments" to be of no real consequence.

Some of us are here to witness the tribulation. We are spiritually sound and good with the Lord. But he needs witnesses to what will happen.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78966028


bridec No I don't think that you are, as you put it "spiritually sound and good with the Lord." Obviously what I wrote in my first post went right through you. to refresh your memory I said... If you are still here after the Rapture then it was because you ignored all the warnings, and where not right with the Lord when it happened. You may not even get the chance to become a Tribulation Saint because you could be wiped out in an instant by a nuclear bomb or some other means. And that would be it as far as you are concerned.
There are many people with a blasé attitude why have latched onto all kinds of lying doctrines, because they want to have their cake and eat it. And that is something that is going to work against you.


And besides all that what about the here and now? Are you just sat there sucking your thumb and having happy thoughts. Think about it: if you are doing nothing now while you are still able, then just what makes you think that you will become a mighty warrior for the Lord at some future date, if you should live so long?

Jeremiah 17:9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
 Quoting: Judethz


You must feel you are better then the 2 witnesses, the 144K and the rememant who will definitely be here during the tribulation.

Rev 14:4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb. 5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.

Rev 11:3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.

Rev 7:14 And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

Rev 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

No it is the pretrib rapture that is false and you are leading people in error. You do not believe God can protect his people.

What is before the tribulation and what is after?

The Wrath of God is after the tribulation and the second coming of Christ. That is when he gathers his elect but I guess the pretribbers are not part of the elect.

Re: Defending the Pre-trib rapture **** New and Improved
Ever single time I havediscussed this in reql life with someone clinging tothis false doctrine, they cannot clearly define the difference between Tribulation and Wrath. So straight away, it's obvious they have not studied the Bible. The Tribulation happens, the Rapture then happens,then GOD unleashes Wrath upon those left behind.

The holders of this false doctrine don't know the Bible well enough to the stages that the Bible clearly depicts.

This forces them to discuss a "secret rapture" which occus nowhere in Scripture.

Try this. Ask a Pre-Tribulation Rature proponent to define the "parousia". They can't do it, yet thatis a core Christian belief since Jesus Christ was born.

They shouldn't be teaching anyone anything if they don't even know this much.

This is why the New Testament warns that "Not all should be teachers..." in James 3:1.

The reasoning is because the pretribbers say they go before the tribulation but the elect leave after the tribulation.

Mat 24:29 "Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.


Mat 24:31 "And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
