Why the Rapture may be sooner than many people think.

Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus,

who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God,

but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men.

And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross.

Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name,

that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth,

and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.


Philippians 2:5-11

Ignore nothing. Believe every word.

The Son of God is God with us.

Jesus Christ is God in the flesh.

Your tongue will confess confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Thus sayeth you, because you the have perfect knowledge of all of the things of God and think a very great deal of whatever you think.

I agree with every verse you post.

You deny every verse I post.

All verses are true.

The only way to reconcile them is that Jesus is God, regardless of how difficult that is for our finite and limited minds to comprehend.

Nevertheless, there is One God and Savior.

Here's the opening verses to all of Paul's letters, where he constantly differentiates between God the Father and the Son Jesus. Salutations from BOTH the Father AND the Son.


Romans 1

1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,
2 (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,)
3 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;
4 And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:

1 Corinthians 1

1 Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,
2 Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both their's and our's:
3 Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

2 Corinthians 1

Galations 1

1 Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;)
2 And all the brethren which are with me, unto the churches of Galatia:
3 Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,
4 Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father:

Ephesians 1

1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:
2 Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:

Philippians 1

1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timotheus our brother,

2 Timothy 1

1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, according to the promise of life which is in Christ Jesus,

Titus 1

1 Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God's elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is after godliness;
2 In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;
3 But hath in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed unto me according to the commandment of God our Saviour;
4 To Titus, mine own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour.

Philemon 1:3 Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

I agree with every verse.

Concerning the verse I posted that you quoted -

Before Jesus lowered Himself to take on the form of a man, was He in the form of God?

SON OF God.

Does God pray to Himself? NOPE.

For the simple scriptural FACT that Jesus said to pray "to the Father".

Jesus NEVER said "pray to ME" nor "worship ME".
.............................................
Let's compare scriptural differences of the Father to the SON.

The Father states that "I am God".
Jesus constantly uses the terms "the Father" and "My Father".

The Father prays to NO one.
Jesus prays TO the Father and teaches the same via the Lord's Prayer - "OUR Father".

The Father is NOT humble - and has no reason to be humble.
Jesus humbles Himself TO the Father.

The Father sits on the throne in Heaven.
Jesus sits at the Father's Right Hand.

The Father (in the OT prophecies) states that He will SEND / "raise up" someone.
Jesus SAID He was SENT.

The Father is in Heaven.
Jesus states He will ascend TO His Father in Heaven, not to "Himself".

The Father knows when Jesus will return.
Jesus doesn't know when He will return.

The Father has Moses remove his sandals on "holy ground".
Jesus doesn't tell anyone to do such a thing.

The Father SENT Jesus.
Jesus doesn't send the Father.

The Father is the source of all power, authority and wisdom.
Jesus learned from the Father, speaks words from the Father and was "given" authority.

The Father IS God Himself.
Jesus is "the Christ", the "Messiah", the "Lamb OF God" and the "Son OF God".

The Father gives thanks to no one.
Jesus gives thanks to the Father.

The Father knows ALL.
Jesus learns from the Father.

The Father's Will is done.
Jesus doesn't do His own will.

Do you love or hate Jesus?

I already did.

I'm not playing your silly ass games anymore.

Jesus has a God - the Father. It's NOT Himself.

John 20:17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not;

for I am not yet ascended to my Father:

but go to my brethren, and say unto them,

I ascend unto my Father, and your Father;

and to my God, and your God.

I love Jesus - as I DEFEND what He actually SAYS.

You don't.

judethz has posted 54 threads with the word "Rapture" in the Title since 2011.

1Timothy 2:12

But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.


That's 54 - 1 times she will be held accountable for spreading a lie, profaning His name in the process.

It Truly Truly sucks to be her, a blind guide for the blind.

IKR?
Anyway, lots of good answers here today, God bless you all! :)

Jesus will Judge YOU.

YOU attack as a lie:

Look for Jesus at any and every moment.

YOU think YOU know better and are better.

Jesus will Judge YOU.

Truly, truly, most assuredly, verily, verily...

And so it was, at noon, that Elijah mocked them and said, "Cry aloud, for he is a god; either he is meditating, or he is relieving Himself, or he is on a journey, or perhaps he is sleeping and must be awakened."

So they cried aloud, and cut themselves, as was their custom, with knives and lances, until the blood gushed out on them.

1Kings 18:27,28

Take heed, watch and pray; for you do not know when the time is.
It is like a man going to a far country, who left his house and gave authority to his servants, and to each his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to watch.
Watch therefore, for you do not know when the master of the house is coming—in the evening, at midnight, at the crowing of the rooster, or in the morning—
lest, coming suddenly, he find you sleeping.
And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch!


Mark 13:33-37

I preach the Jesus that died on the cross to forgive wretched me.

What Jesus do you preach?

For I am jealous for you with godly jealousy. For I have betrothed you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.
But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received,
or a different gospel which you have not accepted—you may well put up with it!

2Corinthians 11:2-4
