| Quote |
O.K. People.
I will VERY EASILY disprove the Pre-trib "rapture" theory:
Read the famous "rapture" verses in
I Thess 4:16-17
16For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
Most people stop right here but if you continue reading their is a clue to the timing of this event.
I Thess 5:1-2
1But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.
I think we can all agree that here, he is still addressing the "rapture" subject in the above verses.
2For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
Again, he's still in context with the famous "rapture" verses. Look at how he refers to this event by:
THE DAY OF THE LORD!!!!
Now you may be thinking so what? what does that tell us?
Well, lets look at what the bible tells us about the day of the Lord:
Joel 2:31
31The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the LORD come.
Joel 3:14-15
14Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision.
15The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their shining.
Isaiah 13:9-10
9Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.
10For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.
Do you see the correlation between all these verses? That's right, they all describe the same celestial events:
Sun & moon darkened, stars shall not give their light
So what does this have to do with the timing of the "rapture"
Well, lets go to Matt 24:29
Here the disciples have asked Christ what will precede his second coming. Listen to what he tells them!
29Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
CHRIST, BY DESCRIBING THE SAME CELESTIAL ANAMOLIES, HAS JUST SET A TIMELINE FOR THE DAY OF THE LORD (RAPTURE) AS HAPPENING AFTER THE GREAT TRIBULATION!!!
Look what he goes on to tell his disciples:
30And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
31And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
Do you see that this description lines up perfectly with the famous "rapture" passage of I Thess 4?
Look at the similarities:
I Thess 4:16-17
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout
Matt 24:30-31
They shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven
I Thess 4:16-17
with the voice of the archangel
Matt 24:30-31
And he shall send his angels
I Thess 4:16-17
and with the trump of God
Matt 24:30-31
with a great sound of a trumpet
I Thess 4:16-17
Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up
Matt 24:30-31
and they shall gather together his elect
We have come full circle. All of this is CONCRETE evidence for a post tribulation "rapture" and cannot be denied.
THE CHURCH WILL GO THROUGH THE GREAT TRIBULATION WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT!!
CHURCH, IT'S TIME TO AMP YOURSELF UP SPIRITUAL AND LEAVE THIS WORLD BEHIND. WE HAVE MANY TRIBULATIONS AHEAD OF US TO ENDURE. ONLY THE TRUE WALK THE WALK BELIEVERS WILL BE WORTHY OF GLORY. STOP DECEIVING YOURSELVES AND COME BACK TO THE TRUTH!!!

The serious problem about a situation like this is that people get their ego wrapped up in their belief.
People that have believed the false rapture stories, will be very resistant and closed-minded to the truth that there is no pre-Tribulation rapture.
The reason is that to finally understand the scriptures and acknowledge that there is no pre-Tribulation rapture, would mean to admit that they have been wrong all these years and all of their pre-tribulation rapture arguments have been horribly wrong.
The ego will not allow people to do this.
There is no Biblical support for any pre-Tribulation rapture. All of the scriptures that "Pre-Tribbers" use to prove the rapture myth are taken way out of context and their clear Biblical meaning altered.
However, people would rather ignorantly defend a lie than to admit their tragic mistake.
The ego is a powerful tool of the Devil.
Please people, set aside your ego and put God in the center and really look at the rapture myth and the "cherry-picked" verses used to support it.
The pre-Tribulation rapture is a lie to confuse Christians during the Tribulation. |

It doesn't matter for those who are spiritual prepared, but what about those who aren't? There are many "Christians" who live like the world and think they will be taken out in the rapture before anything bad happens. It's that group who are going to be off guard and will probably pledge allegiance to the beast because they weren't prepared. So it does matter about the truth of the timing. And frankly we do know when it will happen, because the bible tells us when it will occur. |

There will be MANY deceived. That's why it's important to stay the course and go with the last orders given. If you do this - you have no worries. No sense getting all riled up. Jesus tells us not to worry about these things. We know what we are supposed to do. |

what u described can happen this week
dont forget the ten day trial to come upon the earth, FROM WHICH, the philadelphian church is saved
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 3:10
so these are the ones to go
now there are also those of smyrna which become martyrs.. they apparently stay and go thru tribs
but the most major thing christians missed regarding this, is that the ones who go, CAN (are able to and have permission to) COME BACK
thats what u all missed
some of us WANT TO COME BACK and help you all out, and bring in that golden age through grassroots exploits - ie this will merge with the planetary populist movement, the american revolution part 2, the new age ascension golden age movement, etc etc, the kingdom of god is all of these according to the will of the CHILDREN
also includes the NEW HONEST order based on natural man faith (ie adam before the fall)
so... yes u straigthened it out, but notice this event can happen this week because:
the ones who go, must be KEPT FROM the 10 day trial
the 10 day trial is apparent on earth now, due to the credit freeze explosion *loud noise that is imminent
and of the ones who go, many will come back, its a free will choice
we will be able to heal you, forgive your sins (burn the carnal mind off of you) and also escort you back and forth to new jerusalem in the second heaven, so that you can know (still by faith) that heaven is now real and a physical place
each person has their own personal room in new jerusalem
you either go there when u die, or u walk there if u are one of the ones who is alive and remain and achieve that ability (its by faith)
this stuff i share is the truth

No, it could not happen tomorrow.
We have the whole Book of Revelation to see fulfilled first.
The Rapture comes with the return of God, on the last day of this world. We do not know the precise hour, but we do know of the many things that must come to pass first. |

I don't think anyone is "riled-up" but we are concerned that believers in a pre-trib rapture will be deceived. I believe that Satan will arrange a planetary escape for those that are looking to be raptured out of here. I have no idea what will happen to those deceived by a fake rapture. As Christians we need to discuss these things. Discussing them does not mean we are arguing, although I think this subject is worthy of an argument. |

It's funny how you bash people over the head with undisputable evidence and they still spit out man-made doctrines! Actually it's not funny at all.
I CAN SAY WITH ALL CONFIDENCE THAT THE RAPTURE WILL NOT HAPPEN TODAY AND IT WILL NOT HAPPEN TOMORROW.
II Thess chapter 2 tells us that the antichrist must be revealed first before the second coming and our gathering to him can occur.
The antichrist will war against the saints for 3 1/2 years, then the sky will darken after his reign and Christ will return at some time around that point. PEOPLE READ YOUR BIBLES!!! |

1>It cannot happen this week. II thess chapter 2 tells us that the antichrist must be revealed first. That hasn't happened.
2>The hour of trial is not the great tribulation or the 10 days. It's exactly that - an hour. It's when Christ returns and destroys the wicked and judges those on the earth. Since when does an hour constitute 3 1/2 years or 10 days. The angel in revelation says to come out of Mystery Babylon, for in 1 hour comes her destruction. That is the reference of Rev 3:10.

no no no no no
you are messing up
u are making man's traditions into god's truth
what if what man has thought god meant all this time, is simply wrong?
the thing to do is to get to know god well enough for Him to explain what he meant, IN TRUTH. then God prepares you, and then you know how it is supposed to go down
we are within hours now by the leading that ive been gettting, and the confirmation ive seen over the weekend from others
im looking at a 48 hour window NOW
that is TWO DAYS
so if u rely on your timeline:
....
No, it could not happen tomorrow.

if u rely on this, and it turns out to be a tradition of what man thought, instead of the truth, then u will not be prepared... for example, if it happens today or tomorrow
hmmm...... shooot!
it should always tip us off when we say, God cant, until
god cant until
look at it... its liable to be wrong when u say that, huh?
man messed up, and made his passed down imaginations into a truth that is actually a lie - how can we stake our soul on a timeline dreamed up by men?

In admission: Book of Thessalonian was written in 50AD and many apostles were schooled by the Book of Enoch which was written centuries before the New Testament.
Book Of Enoch.
2Enoch.65:[6]There will be one aeon, and all the righteous who shall escape the LORD'S Great judgment, shall be collected in the Great aeon, for the righteous the Great aeon will begin, and they will live eternally, and then too there will be amongst them neither labour, nor sickness.
LORD'S Great judgment, shall be collected in the Great aeon,
The One who wrote the story is the AUTHOR of that story, you gotta believe in the GOD in which the rapture story was written in to be a part of that story. The jews copied from the book of Enoch that's why the rapture is mentioned in Joel, and thereafter in the New Testament. |

I don't think anyone is "riled-up" but we are concerned that believers in a pre-trib rapture will be deceived. I believe that Satan will arrange a planetary escape for those that are looking to be raptured out of here. I have no idea what will happen to those deceived by a fake rapture. As Christians we need to discuss these things. Discussing them does not mean we are arguing, although I think this subject is worthy of an argument. Quoting: Darkman
Ummm...not necessarily. I lean towards pre-trib. But I understand that I DON'T KNOW.
Rapture isn't voluntary - that's my belief. Gone - in an instant. I'll never put anyone's mark on my hand or head or bow to anyone other than Jesus Christ. I love the Lord and follow Him only for all time.
Discuss away. I'm with you, it's not worthy of an argument. That's what I'm saying. If you just do what we were told to do you'll be fine...that's my belief. Watch and wait. Don't be deceived by false prophets claiming to be the Messiah...Jesus has already come to save. The next time you see Him, He'll be coming in glory...not trying to convince people.
Doesn't matter to me whether he comes before the trib, during the trib, or after the trib. There is scripture to support all scenarios. I try to focus on those things that can be known in scripture and the instructions given. |

I beg to differ with logic and reason for I am the image of the Creator.
The first time the LORD came down to save was during the days of Noah. The LORD chained up the Fallen angels of Genesis who fornicated with the earth women and brought forth the Nephilims and then sent the Flood saving Mankind (Noah).
The second time will be similar where people will escape like Noah did and the rest is just 'Writing on the Wall.' |

There are many layers to Scripture. Even if you spend every day until you die reading and studying Scripture, you still will not have full understanding. Best to leave the mind open to what the Spirit would say. After all, he is the only true interpreter.

what u described can happen this week
dont forget the ten day trial to come upon the earth, FROM WHICH, the philadelphian church is saved
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 3:10
so these are the ones to go
now there are also those of smyrna which become martyrs.. they apparently stay and go thru tribs
but the most major thing christians missed regarding this, is that the ones who go, CAN (are able to and have permission to) COME BACK
thats what u all missed
some of us WANT TO COME BACK and help you all out, and bring in that golden age through grassroots exploits - ie this will merge with the planetary populist movement, the american revolution part 2, the new age ascension golden age movement, etc etc, the kingdom of god is all of these according to the will of the CHILDREN
also includes the NEW HONEST order based on natural man faith (ie adam before the fall)
so... yes u straigthened it out, but notice this event can happen this week because:
the ones who go, must be KEPT FROM the 10 day trial
the 10 day trial is apparent on earth now, due to the credit freeze explosion *loud noise that is imminent
and of the ones who go, many will come back, its a free will choice
we will be able to heal you, forgive your sins (burn the carnal mind off of you) and also escort you back and forth to new jerusalem in the second heaven, so that you can know (still by faith) that heaven is now real and a physical place
each person has their own personal room in new jerusalem
you either go there when u die, or u walk there if u are one of the ones who is alive and remain and achieve that ability (its by faith)
this stuff i share is the truth
1>It cannot happen this week. II thess chapter 2 tells us that the antichrist must be revealed first. That hasn't happened.
2>The hour of trial is not the great tribulation or the 10 days. It's exactly that - an hour. It's when Christ returns and destroys the wicked and judges those on the earth. Since when does an hour constitute 3 1/2 years or 10 days. The angel in revelation says to come out of Mystery Babylon, for in 1 hour comes her destruction. That is the reference of Rev 3:10.
3>You start spouting off new age garble and webbot predictions that aren't even bible-based. I'd be very careful on what you are teaching others. Speculation only leads to deceit. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 551607
the antichrist was revealed as "the carnal mind in man" by me and by Mitt Jeffords (the Castle vision) in 2006, and also revealed by paul the apostle, explicitly
on your point #2:
i think you made my point. when, oh when is it MORE obvious to come out of babylon (world system worshipping the god of money) than it is RIGHT AT THIS MOMENT? and how LOUD a NOISE can we all hear in ONE HOUR (when whatever finally triggers it is announced on teevee)?
and what other destruction would GOD SAVE this small group of people FROM, other than the total collapse of civilization ON THIS EARTH, that happens in ONE HOUR?
make sense to yourself, and read what you said, supports my position
the 3 1/2 years of the remainder of Jesus' ministry from when he was cut off after making the covenant with many, is what we WILL DO when some of us COME BACK to help you all out of this mess!
do u begin to see the true picture of God's plan?
think of it this way:
there is god's true plan
there is the summations of many views of what man has thought god's true plan was
okay.. so then there are the few (guess who) that know god's true plan, and so their VIEW of that reality is correct, and all the others then become wrong
the few are likely the same people who are slated (are candidates) to GO and be saved from the 10 day trial (the loud noise of the collapse)
so i am sorry but u are wrong for believing man's suppositions of what god meant.. and that you are so stuck you hardly listen to another viewpoint that COULD help straighten you out, instead of jumping to the conclusion that i MUST be wrong, because you CANT be wrong....
its too late for all that, check out what i said and ask the holy spirit this time
your #3 point about new age and web bot babble
u are very very late my friend, and caught in the christian lies web of deceit.. its too late to explain it all, especially since u are not inclined to listen, it appears
suffice to say the truth, the new age and the new age people and their doctrines are not evil as you suppose - anymore than the christian ones are evil - the point was to ask the holy spirit and let god teach you the truths found in them and guide ur life to your destiny
and the web bots are the prophets that god raised up for us, because of christians like you, im so sorry to tell you
god used cliff and computer programs to tap the prophetic gift in his children to let US tell ourselves the true prophetic future, and it all lines up perfectly with the plans in God's heart
thats the truth, i dont have time to explain why, u didnt do your homework, or you would understand what u yourself said about the new age and web bot stuff - your position is grossly and dangerously WRONG
and your positions reveal your low love quotient
god is saving everyone! ALL 100%

Read ALL of Matthew 24 for yourself and heed it well.
He gives the signs that will take place - many of them occurring now.
Discern for yourselves.
I see Him talk about the "saved"
I see Him talk about the "elect"
They may be one and the same. They may not - which would mean Pre-trib. The days will be shortened for the sake of the elect - this may mean a mid-trib rapture - or it may mean the regular prophesied timeline and a post-trib rapture.
At any rate - Matthew 24 is good - if you heed it well, you will be in good shape no matter what.
Also, look carefully at vs. 6 and take heart.

.
. 1. The "great-tribulation" has been in process SINCE Yeshua's return to The Father. The "great" is GREAT-IN-LENGTH-OF-TIME.
.
. 2. There are TWO times that living believers are removed (Raptured). The first will come just before/at the opening of Seal 6. The second will be the one where the dead in Yeshua are raised ... along with those who survied the 3-1/2 years of the beast's reign. This will happen Yom Teruah ... when the dead in Yeshua are also raised. |

The rapture will happen when it happens. The truth is that none of us know. But you had better be prepaired because it could happen tomorrow. Here is a Chick tract on the subject...
[ link to www.chick.com]
I W£ILL REPEAT - for the benifit of those who are hard of hearing.
It's not that we're hard of hearing, we're ignoring you and Chick, who is at best confused.
Why can I never find Elmer when I need him?
