That is a reference to the elect believing remnant of Israel, not the Church. The Great Tribulation will probably be shortened by about eight months according to Daniel.

Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot? And he said unto me, Unto two thousand and three hundred days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed. (Dan 8:13,14)

2,300 days = 6.39 years = approximately 6 years, 4 months, and 21 days. The total is 7 years, which then excludes about 8 months.



Before any of us ever accepted God, God had already chosen us. If that is not Elected, then the definition is incorrect to begin with. We are grafted in. We are Israelites to God. We are the Elect!

I did not say anything about Christians not being elect. But the issue was regarding the elect during the Great Tribulation (which does not pertain to the Church).

The moment Christ Died and Resurrected, Everyone who believed in Him became Heirs of God. Paul said there is neither Jew nor Gentile. We are the Elect!

There is NO VERSE that states the Church will not go through the Tribulation!

You are leaving me as such, because you know there is no verse that proves your claim!

If there was an actual verse making your claim, you would post it in a highlighted text!

What you do have to show me as proof is pretty much this:

qfrhgfhqrhqrhfhwoeihfowhiofhofhohwfhowehfohwefhrowe = pre-trib Rapture because I say that is what qfrhgfhqrhqrhfhwoeihfowhiofhofhohwfhowehfohwefhrowe means!

If the ac kills every man woman and child DURING THE GT ,where is this dynamic that supposedly the church is doing well on earth at the end of the gt,and noah nor lot were rescued/ removed/taken out of the destruction/flood/judgement AFTER THE JUDGEMENT WAS PAST??????

YOU HAVE ZERO EVIDENCE OF A POSTRIB REMOVAL

NOTHING

Once you focus on the rapture.....hands down game over....it is without a doubt,a pretrib rapture.

You see what I see. The church murdered DURING THE GT.
We both see that. We both see the church present to be murdered during the gt.
The rapture is the Worthy BRIDE....NOT the carnal christians.

Only those worthy wise virgins are removed. Those carnal believers ,the foolish unworthy believers,are killed/martered by the ac and seen early on in the gt as a innumerable number IN HEAVEN...destroying the postrib rapture doctrine.

Jesus tells us "...but pray you may be counted worthy..."

Jesus tells us " because you have kept the word of my testimony I WILL KEEP YOU OUT OF THE TRIAL ABOUT TO COME UPON THE WHOLE EARTH"

WHAM,WHAM,WHAM...JESUS without question coming pretrib for his bride.

The last supper dialog is pretrib lingo. I will not drink of the fruit of the vine till I drink it anew WITH YOU IN HEAVEN"

In ruth the gentile bride is taken,and the land redeemed.
The jew is there with them both.
What is missing????
THE GT. NO GT ANYWHERE IN SIGHT.
WHY? Because heaven is not gt centered.
Heaven is bride centered.
Boaz was bride centered. Naomi the jewess was indirectly involved.
Jacob's trouble is Israel's trouble...nothing at all to do with the bride....zero.

So the rapture is a part FROM the gt..

You guys are 100% gt centered. Your focus is wrong. What you magnify is the gt.
IOW your starting place mental. It is what you think can't happen.

The case I lay out is bullet proof.

Why ?

Because I START FROM HEAVEN...the bride.

The bride is the starting place....not tribulation.

But we see right away that postrib is off the table due to the impossibilities.
Postrib rapture can not possibly be true. Not even remotely possible.
Rev 14 gathering HAS TO FOLLOW 1 thes 4.
(Unless you think the Holy Spirit was confused when He said THE DEAD RISE BEFORE THE LIVING)

GAME SET MATCH.!!!!!

There is no verse saying asparagus grows in heaven.
Therefore it can not.
Right?
...but you got a train load of verses showing
the pretrib rapture is indisputable.

Take one of my verses. Show us another "interpretation"

You will be forced to go against the bible

The strongs concordance mandatory, helps a lot Tribulation vs Wrath Very different. Tribulation, no big deal.

Tribulation of Revelation 1.9 I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ was in the isle that is called Patmos for the word of God and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.

The honor in serving God? Why would you not wish to be a brother and companion in tribulation. All must be tested and overcome. Having overcome and suffered tribulation, Gods Wrath will not come upon you.
The baby Jesus was removed BEFORE TRIB
Lot ...the same

Noah ......the same

So did they have a bad testimony????

Hello Ahwatukee,

We have a different understanding. My belief a bit more ... Spiritual. The death and destruction seen by many as " physical" . It is death and destruction of souls, he is back to what he did before, by deception. Man of sin doesn't arrive untill after wars he arrives for "peace and safety". God is sending strong delusion, if anyone wants to believe his lies, so be it.
Satan tempted Jesus with same he will tempt us. I give you what you could want, worship me. I am God, I sit in Gods seat telling the world I am God. miracles, prospeerity peace.
The elect don't find deception tempting. Gospel armor protects through the vial and woes. God loves his "Shadrach Meshack and Abednegos and Daniels" why the examples otherwise?
At the end of the hour of tribulation, the 2 dead witness rise, as Jesus king of kings returns Lords Day

2 Thessalon tells clear as day and I took out some of the words

Now we beseech by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, by our gathering together unto him,

ye be not shaken in mind nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.

Let no man deceive you for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be

revealed, the son of perdition, so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:

We are most different, we for sure will find out soon
""Let no man deceive you for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed""

I am pretrib and believe we may see the ac before the rapture.
That dynamic is in no way a postrib rapture marker.
It says "REVEALED".

But I see the Christian's rounded up at the start of the gt. Then raptured from the holding facilities.

We will see the mockers saying "ha ha,see ....where is your false pretrib rapture ?"

Me...."He will be here. He is coming..hide and watch"

Then about half leave the facility ....glorious...the worthy bride looking for the groom.

The unbeliever Christian's looking for something other than the groom stay and are martyred.
Millions/billions killed right away in the gt.

....the foolish arriving in heaven another way

Why do postribs think that verse proves anything?????

It is declaring a parallel at the beginning of the gt.

Yet postribs reframe it to the end of the gt.

The ac is revealed after the gt ????

Why would the days be shortened for the Elect if the Elect were not going through a time of where life is difficult for all people?

Why would the Elect be Commanded by Christ that when Tribulation ends we are to watch for the signs in sky until Christ returns to gather the Elect?

Why do pre-tribbers use Scripture where if you read a few verses before, you can see Paul is answering their (Thessalonians) question about what the Rapture will be like and when will/if we ever meet our dead loved ones again, not making a claim for pre/mid/post?

And within the Moment of a Twinkling of an Eye, we will be Raptured, Transformed, with Christ (blink your eyes, that fast and we will be Raptured/Transformed/with Christ). Knowing we will be Raptured/Transformed/with Christ in ONE Twinkle of the Eye, why can't we be Raptured and then go immediately to Armageddon? Why is it so DIFFICULT to image 3 things taking place in a Twinkle of an Eye, but some still cannot fathom from there going directly to Armageddon? I am literally baffled by the ignorance and disbelief!

There are 23 hardcore Scriptures dealing with Rapture, and not a single one gives us an indication to the timing of Tribulation. That means to believe anything other than Matthew 24 where Christ claims the Elect will be going through Tribulation, is to be interjecting personal agenda towards Pre and Mid

They are shortened for the jews.
Rev 14 has the 144k removed first...firstfruits...then the main harvest of jews "ripe fruit" a few sentences later.
Jacob's trouble the gt.

I have the WORDS of Jesus in Matthew 24 that claims AFTER the Tribulation Ends.

As to where YOU have no verses claiming the Church leaves before Tribulation, NO VERSES!

I don't believe the 7 year Tribulation, no matter how horrific it may be, is the actual "Wrath of God." This is the one time God gives Satan his desire. I believe the slaughtering by Christ at Armageddon and then the eventual Judgement is where the literal "Wrath of God" takes place. We are talking 10 to 15 Billion people being forced into a Lake of Fire to burn for all Eternity. That to me is Wrath being played out on God's end, not a 7 year Tribulation.
Really? To be sure, there will indeed be a great white throne judgment at the end of the thousand years, but that is not the wrath that is spoken of. The wrath that is coming upon the earth, will be like no other time in history, unprecedented. By the time the Lord returns to the earth to end the age, the majority of the earths population will have been decimated and all human government dismantled. A thousand years after God's wrath has taken place is when the great white throne judgment will take place and is where all of the unrighteous dead throughout all of history will stand before God and will be judged. However, God's wrath, the Day of the Lord, will take place leading up to the Lord's return to the earth to end the age, which will be carried out via the seals, trumpets and bowl judgments, as well as the plagues that the two witnesses bring.

The Day of the Lord which was prophesied of by the prophets of old and the apostles, is that time of wrath. The book of Revelation is a detailed account of all that is going to take place during the time of God's wrath, which is made up of the seals, trumpets and bowl judgments. Everything that Satan, the beast and the false prophet do during that time, is apart of God's wrath whom He uses to fulfill His will.

The great white throne judgment will be exactly that, the final judgment with the results being everyone whose names is not found written in the book of life will be thrown into the lake of fire. The wrath which is coming upon this earth is listed from Revelation chapters 6 thru 18. Therefore, it is not a matter regarding, as you said, "That to Me is wrath." But what God's word teaches as being His wrath is what counts. In support of this, the seals, trumpets and bowl judgments are identified as God's wrath. So, I don't know why you would say that:

"I saw in heaven another great and marvelous sign: seven angels with the seven last plagues—last, because with them God’s wrath is completed."

The verse above is in reference to those seven angels with the seven [last plagues], last because with them [God's wrath] is completed. This verse is referring to the seven angels with the bowl judgments, which complete God's wrath. Since the seven bowls are identified as being last, then it would mean that other wrath would have to come before them. If I say, "I was last in line to by concert tickets," that would mean that other people were ahead of me. It is the same here. Since these seven bowls are referred to as being the seven last plagues of wrath, then it would infer that there will wrath that will come before them, namely, the seals and trumpets. The word of God is referring to them as being God's wrath, where the great white throne is a final judgment.

Twist that Bible, it's the only way so far I have seen how most of what you believe has been done. The ELECT is anyone SAVED in Christ!
