    50 Reasons For a Pretribulational Rapture By Dr. John F. Walvoord

    Good day, Randyk, The spirits of those Christian's who have died in Christ are in heaven waiting for the resurrection from that side. When Jesus descends to the atmosphere He will bring with Him those departed spirits and they will be reunited with their immortal and glorified resurrected...

    The second coming of Jesus

    No, because the other signs of The Day of the Lord, would not necessarily have begun right away. For example, we don't know how much of a gap there will be in between when the church is gathered until that antichrist makes his seven year covenant with Israel and God's wrath begins. So, if they...

    The absurdity and heresy of Preterism

    Actually I didn't equate preterism with full preterism, which is why I specified 'full preterism' after using on the word 'preterism.'

    The second coming of Jesus

    I'm sure they had there share of false teachers. It's no wonder then that we have been inundated with them during these last days.

    The second coming of Jesus

    Hello again! I look at all of the major translations, comparing them side by side for any given scripture. I look at the NIV, NLT, NASB, Berean Literal Bible, Berean study Bible, the interlinear, the actual Greek, KJV, and many others. I also use the Codex Sinaiticus. Please give me an...

    The second coming of Jesus

    Thank you for saying so! It is always uplifting when other believers have been revealed the same information regarding scripture. Especially today, since there seems to be a plethora of interpretations on any given eschatological subject. And I say Amen to God's praise!

    The second coming of Jesus

    All of the seals, trumpets and bowl judgments, including the woes of trumpets 5, 6 & 7, are God's wrath and also including all the plagues that the two witnesses will bring. The entire time period is the Day of the Lord, the time of God's wrath, including the beasts kingdom, the mark of the...

    The second coming of Jesus

    Hi Runningman, I don't think that you understood my post. The scripture states that "The Day of the Lord" will not come until the apostasy occurs and that man of lawlessness is revealed. In other words, the proof that the Day of the Lord is here would be the apostasy and the revealing of that...

    Hi Dino! May I ask which part of the information above that you disagree with?

    The second coming of Jesus

    They were concerned about both events. Because since there were people teaching that the day of the Lord had already come, it would mean that they had missed being caught up and were now going to face God's wrath. They go hand in hand.

    The absurdity and heresy of Preterism

    Hello Gideon300, To contend for the truth of God's word, is not absurd. Preterism is one of the most destructive teachings out there. The full preterist believes that all of matthew 24, as well as all of the events of Revelation have already taken place, including the resurrection. If anything...

    The second coming of Jesus

    Greetings, Rev316, I'm always happy to share what I know, whether people believe it or not. Of course, I like it better when they look at the scriptures and do what the Bereans did. That said, I'll post the scripture again: ============================================================ Now...

    The destruction of the Temple in 70 AD

    Hello Joey1964, The simple answer to your question is that, though John is the one who was shown the information in the book of Revelation, he is not the author. He wrote only what God wanted him to write. Remember in Rev.1:19, the Lord told John to write down: What you've seen = everything...

    Less well-known Rapture verses. The case for the Rapture is compelling.

    The words "has come" means that the time of the wedding 'has arrived,' which is why the church/bride is receiving her fine linen, white and clean which are the brides wedding clothes. That scripture demonstrates that the time for the wedding has come and is taking place at that time. And most...

    Did Paul explain scripture or add to scripture?

    Peter proclaimed that Paul's letters as being wisdom from God and as scripture: "Consider also that our Lord’s patience brings salvation, just as our beloved brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom God gave him. He writes this way in all his letters, speaking in them about such matters...

    Less well-known Rapture verses. The case for the Rapture is compelling.

    Agreed! Scripture states that only those with who have seal of God in their forehead are exempt from the torment of those demonic locusts, which would be that 144,000 out of Israel who will have been sealed in Rev.7 "They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any plant or tree, but...

    Homosexual Brother In Law

    Those comparisons are not the same. Just showing up at the ungodly union is congratulatory. By your reasoning we could involve ourselves in anything thing by compromising. Did God destroy several cities on account of alcohol or any other sin? His refusal to attend would tell his son that we...

    The absurdity and heresy of Preterism

    For those who are preterists, I guess God's wrath wasn't so bad after all, huh. These people have no idea of the severity and magnitude of what is about to come upon this world with the literal fulfillment of those seals, trumpets and bowl judgments.

    The absurdity and heresy of Preterism

    Sorry, but that is not an accurate comparison to this scripture. The fact is that God can do whatever He wants and however He wants. I can provide another scripture that has a gap as well. Compare the two scriptures below...

    50 Reasons For a Pretribulational Rapture By Dr. John F. Walvoord

    That's false! The scriptures states that He was going to the Father's house to prepare actual places for us, which would be in heaven. This preparation would have taken place after He ascended to the right hand of the Father. And then He says that He is coming back to get us to take us back to...
