God's Great Grace Departure .... is this what you are titling the rapture?
Precious @Sanders, thanks for kindly asking - yes, I borrowed this from Dr. David Jeremiah when
he misquoted his own thought of "Great Departure" and said instead "Grace Departure". So, it
sounded good to me to make the combo in my own Rightly Divided studies:

Great Grace Departure [ aka rapture ]. Been stuck ever since a few years ago.

Hi There,

I would love to ask your thoughts on a few parts.

See below- ....now is this stating rapture is a myth or is stating it is not a myth? The rapture debunked in 3 q's, A little trouble following the text. I apologize...

How does the speaker propose to put the "pre-trib myth" to rest?:

His Title is "the rapture debunked in 3 questions," but upon further review, we
find there are not 3, but there are actually 5!:

"1. What is the Rapture, and why is it considered a myth according to the Bible? 2. When and how does the Bible describe the resurrection and transformation of faithful Christians? 3. Is the Rapture a secret event, or does it involve a public and triumphant moment as per biblical evidence? 4. How does the sequence of trumpets in the Book of Revelation align with the timing of the resurrection of true Christians? 5. Will Christians vanish mysteriously around the world without explanation, or is there a clear biblical understanding of their fate during the end times?" (TW)
Thanks for inquiring. I was simply pointing out that the "Quoted speaker (TW)" was telling us he had "debunked" the pre-trib Bible Doctrine with "only 3 questions." But as read his article further, he must have made a mistake { benefit of the doubt? }, because I had actually found he proposed
a total of 5 questions, in order to prove his "rapture is a myth" teaching.

Seems inconsistent to me, as I would rather trust God's Consistent Word Of Truth. Hope this helps
explain my post.

And thanks So Much for your diligent, prayerful, and Careful attention to this Very Important
Matter. Very Encouraging to me.

May God Encourage And Edify you Very Richly on your own Bible journey.

Is there a way to respond with hearts or something other than a thumbs up? No biggy.

You're Welcome. Seems the browsers are having problems with the emoticons - I use Firefox with no problems, but if I try Brave then they do not work. I think the techies are "working on it", eh @Magenta?

There have been a number of threads on this issue ... if you check the user2user forum you will find them ... many solutions were offered and also apparently the issue is fixed if you update the Edge browser, because that was where the problem started apparently, when Microsoft did an update back in September, because the reactions continued to work in other browsers, and a lot of people opted to use Mozilla Firefox instead so they would have full access to the reactions... Posted from my phone so please excuse the weird punctuation.

Thank you so much for answering. I use Chrome. It's not a biggy for me. :)

You are welcome! Does the full white/blank bar for the reactions show up? If it does and you can correctly guess where the reaction you want to use is located, or perhaps you could find it through trial and error, hovering your cursor over that spot and then when the name for the reaction shows up, oh, wait, that may only be a work-around for phones. I can do that on my phone, although with my older phone they do all show up...

at first it was really hard for me to find the reactions bar using chrome but now it seems to have been fixed at least on my end

Oh I have never heard of Brave Browser. Tell us about its security please. :)
IPVanish write-up:

"What makes Brave different from other browsers?
Our previous discussions have already illuminated Brave’s unique positioning. But what if your attention is mainly on its fundamental settings and not the bells and whistles? (Although they are helpful and worth considering.) Brave’s approach to online safety is simplified compared to others. Many acclaimed browsers, such as Firefox, boast about their security features. But Brave eliminates many of the technical challenges for greater convenience.

What sets Brave apart from most browsers is its stress on security. It commits to this by automatically blocking potentially dangerous third parties, such as ads, cross-site cookies, phishing, and malware. You can find that using the shield icon in the address bar if you want to know what Brave has blocked.

While many browsers don’t provide automatic safety measures and often require users to activate them, Brave touts a one-stop solution for privacy and security. This is far different from Google Chrome, where users may need to download third-party extensions (a process that carries its risks) to enable certain security features. Brave also offers monthly updates, equipping the user with new privacy enhancements. The best part is that it’s free for desktop and mobile devices."

Enjoy.

This sounds nice. How long have you had it?

I see the fruit of kindness in you :))
