jesus did talk about the same rapture/gathering that Paul did in the book of thessalonians and even in the same order. It surprises me that everyone wants to ignore it.
@Myhopeisinhim Greetings to you my dear sister in our Lord Jesus. Perhaps it is the fulfillment of scripture. 2 Timothy 4:3,4 prophesies, "For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;4And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables." Keeping in mind that the false pre-trib doctrine did not become popular until around 1850.
It's incredible all that took place in the 1800s. It was the century of the visions and the rise of many groups, such as adventists, jehovah witnesses, mormons..and also the time in which various doctrines invaded the current churches, such as pre-trib.
And ever since then it's been increasing at a rapid rate. More false christs, false teachers than ever noticed before.
You are absolutely correct. I was a baptist that used to believe in Dispensationalism. Now I know better thanks to teachers like you. Jesus said at the last day 4X!
@AMATTEROFTRUTH Luke 17:22 One of the DAYS of the son of man.. and if we see this verse as paul saying it it sound like this One of the Days of the LORD, meaning his coming.. So with that verse you can see something also....
You believe me or not, is not my consern... That is between you and God, i know you are a child of God, but you have to be careful when reading the bible.
@iamthebest6367 Yes you have to be careful when reading the Bible. This passage of scripture is speaking of the SECOND COMING of Jesus. Times will be hard for everyone. Some believers will be in hiding, some in prison awaiting their execution for not rejecting the Lord. There will be many FALSE christs and people will try to lure believers out of their secret place. And some believers will DESIRE that ONE of these DAYS to ACTUALLY be the REAL coming of Jesus, but NONE of them will be REAL (cont)
@AMATTEROFTRUTH Jesus warned us of FALSE christs and NOT to come OUT of our secret place, because his COMING will be as the LIGHTNING and EVERY ONE will SEE him when he comes again. There will be NO NEED to say Lo, he is here, or he is there. Luke 17:24 says, "...So shall also be the Son of man in his DAY (SINGULAR, NOT DAYS as in two comings. There is ONLY ONE SECOND coming of Jesus my dear brother in the Lord and it is NOT DIVIDED into TWO parts. And I am concerned that you believe the TRUTH
@iamthebest6367 The Holy Spirit has spoken to me as well about the rapture of the church. Go to my website for my testimony. I ask the Lord, I do not care who is right or who is wrong, I desire to know ONLY the TRUTH the WHOLE TRUTH and nothing but the TRUTH. And I spent 8-12 hrs a day for over a month reading through the entire Bible searching for the TRUTH. Every argument put forth by the PRE-trib teaching I ask, What about this, Lord, and he specifically showed me the TRUTH on each question
@AMATTEROFTRUTH I have peace, faith, and love know full weel that I will go through the time of great tribulation. At first I had fear, but now I have complete peace. Think about Luke 17:22 some more, and ask yourself, WHY were the disciple told, You shall DESIRE to see one of the days of the Son of man and you shall NOT. In other words, you shall DESIRE to SEE a PRE-trib rapture, but you shall NOT. Every time we see the word COMING it is ALWAYS SINGULAR and NEVER PLURAL. Search DEEPER (cont)
@AMATTEROFTRUTH If the voice you hear and the dreams you dream CONTRADICT the WHOLE word of God then they are NOT from Almighty God. We are warned to TRY the spirits to SEE whether or not they are of God. Again in Luke 17:22 ask yourself WHY the disciples DESIRE to SEE the COMING of the Son of man? REMEMBER he just told them PRIVATELY of this time of GREAT TRIBULATION. Read Matthew 241-31 and KEEP it in CONTEXT and SEE WHO Jesus is speaking to ALL the way through this ENTIRE passage of scripture
@AMATTEROFTRUTH Ok.. So we both say that we both know the truth.. But there is only one truth... Ok. Lets just way them.. When the antichrist Comfirms the peace treatys of Israel, we start the tribulation, and if that happen before the church is gone.. then we will go through the tribulation.. But if the church is rapture before it.. You will stay, no matter what kind of Christian you are.. You have to be holy in everything, the inside and inside or else you will stay..
@iamthebest6367 Yes there is only one truth. Jesus told us, his disciples, the truth in Matthew 24:1-31. In verse 3 please notice that the DISCIPLES of Jesus came to Jesus PRIVATELY and asked Tell US your disciplee, your followers, your CHURCH, tell US, when shall these things be, and what shall be the SIGN of your COMING, and the end of the world, or the end of this age? Then notice that ALL the way through this entire charter Jesus is speaking to his FOLLOWERS, his CHURCH. Read it for yourself
@AMATTEROFTRUTH Like I told you, nothing else I can say to you.. You believe in the post-rapture.. that is fine with me... Ask me this question... Why do you think Jesus didnt talk about the rapture? and why was it that it was in 1800s (like some people say, I dont believe that) that people starting preaching about the rapture... Just remember what God say to Daniel... knowledge will increase in the LAST Days....
The bible say the holy spirit will told us the secrets of God.
@iamthebest6367 Acts 2:20 "The SUN shall be turned into darkness, and the MOON into blood, BEFORE that great and notable DAY of the Lord come." The DAY od the Lord is the WRATH of God. And these signs in the SUN and MOON occur BEFORE the WRATH od God. Now read matthew 24:29 "IMMEDIATELY AFTER the TRIBULATION (or GREAT TRIBULATION) of those days shall the SUN be darkened, and the MOON shall not giveher light, and the STARS shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken.
@AMATTEROFTRUTH These SIGNS in the SUN, MOON and STARS occur BETWEEN the time of GREAT TRIBULATION and the WRATH of God and the SECOND coming of Jesus occurs right after or when the SIGNS are taking place. Rev. 6:12-17 The opening of the SIXTH seal we see these SAME SIGNS in the SUN, the MOON and the STARS and then verse 17 says, "For the GREAT DAY of his WRATH is come..." The 7th trumpet is sounded and we see the WRATH of God being poured out in Rev. 11:18; Then we see the SAME WRATH (cont)
@AMATTEROFTRUTH Then we see the SAME WRATH of God being poured out in the 7th vial or bowl right after the battle of Armageddon in Rev 16:17-21 And in ALL three, the seals, the trumpets and the vials we see the RAPTURE taking place BETWEEN the 6th and the 7th. Job 5:19 says, "He will deliver you in SIX troubles; yea in SEVEN there shall NO evil TOUCH you. The FIRST SIX SEALS, the FIRST SIX TRUMPETS and THE FIRST SIX VIAL are the GREAT TRIBULATION and the 7th seal, thrumpet and vial are the WRATH
@AMATTEROFTRUTH you are so confused with the bible, i dont know how you got confused, is really clear, well is not clear when you just read it, you need the holy Spirit..
And other thing, We as the bride, (the true church) will not go through the tribulation. only those people that are saying that the church will go through the tribulation will stay .. I pray you are not one of them..
@iamthebest6367 IF your were to BELIEVE something that you were TAUGHT from the Bible, such as ONCE SAVED ALWAYS SAVED NO NATTER WHAT meaning that you BELIEVED that since you accepted Jesus as your saviour, then NO MATTER WHAT you DO, EVEN living an adulterous SINFUL lifestyle and you were to DIE while presently living in this SINFUL lifestyle, BUT you BELIEVED it does NOT MATTER WHAT you DO, because ONCE you are SAVED you are ALWAYS SAVED; do you honestly BELIEVE you will RECEIVE ETERNAL LIFE?
@AMATTEROFTRUTH hahaha, you are trying to change the subject.. First of all, I dont believe that ONCE SAVE ALWAYS SAVE... I preach the opposite of that,, I know my God, I know who He is.... You cannot be save if you die in sin... and like I said b4, I have been tought about the rapture.. But I did my own study in my hous and I came with the same conclusion... There is a rpture before the Tribulation,, and there is a Second coming.. Read Luke 17:22, Jesus said one of the DAYS, CONTINUE
@iamthebest6367 I am glad you do NOT believe in the FALSE teaching of ONCE SAVES ALWAYS SAVED. And I am glad you search the scriptures for yourself to see if what you have been TAUGHT is the TRUTH, but nonetheless the CONCLUSION that you drew of there being a PRE-tribulation rapture is INCORRECT and is NOT based upon the WHOLE word of God. Please view all my video on this subject with an open heart to know ONLY the TRUTH and God WILL open your eyes to his word of TRUTH, Your brother in the Lord
The seals 1-5 are obviously the times of trouble Jesus told of ... The SIXTH seal in Rev 6 begins the WRATH .( Rev 6:17) For the great day of his WRATH is come; and who shall be able to stand? Rev. 7 discribes what appears to be a "heavenly" viewpoint of the rapture... the Seventh seal isn't opened till Rev 8.... also re: Luke 21:28 And when these things BEGIN to come to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth near.
Thank you for your teaching. I agree, the church will go through the period of great tribulation, and then the day of the Lord will come when the Lord will descend and tread the winepress of the wrath of God as Rev 19:15 says. However, just before Christ descends and gathers us the first drops of God's wrath will spill over in the form of the bowls. After the 6th bowl Christ announces He will come as a thief (suddenly), admonishing His own on earth to watch, Rev 16:15. We will be protected! :)
@Rileyportbay Hi sister. I cannot speak for arovir, but as for me I see the FIRST SIX SEAL, the FIRST SIX TRUMPETS, and the FIRST SIX VIALS or BOWLS being, opened, sounded or blown and poured out during the time of great tribulation. Then there will be SIGNS in the SUN, MOON, and STARS, then the SECOND coming of Jesus, then the opening, sounding or blowing, and pouring out of the SEVENTH SEAL, the SEVENTH TRUMPET and the SEVENT VIAL or BOWL, which are ALL representitve of the WRATH of God.
@Rileyportbay At the end of the description of the 6th seal people are going into hiding from the coming wrath of God on His day, Rev 6:16-17. This tells me the first 6 seals are not God's wrath. At the 7th trumpet it is said: "thy wrath is come" Rev 11:18. This tells me the first 6 trumpets are not the wrath of God. My studies have brought me to the conclusion that the 7th seal, 7th trumpet and 7th bowl coincide time-wise at the conclusion of the great tribulation when Christ comes with wrath.
@arovir Thanks for your comment.Yes I believe some of His own will be protected, perhaps in the same way they are protected now, BY faith. In other words, for example, very few Christians are healed, unless they themselves BELIEVE the word of God for their healing. That is to say, just because Jesus bore those stripes for our healing does not mean that all Christians AUTOMATICALLY are healed. In much the same way, I personally do not believe that ALL His own will be AUTOMATICALLY protected. cont
@AMATTEROFTRUTH This is why I believe it is so vital to get the TRUTH out so that people can prepare themselves spiritually to walk in God's protection. Tell me what you think about Daniel 11:30-35. I myself see some of God's people being deceived and falling. Some will fall and be strenghtened to endure unto the end, but others will not. In reading elsewhere in the Bible I am finding that those who are in anguish praying for God's people to be protected will themselves be protected. Thanks.
@AMATTEROFTRUTH There is so much that can be said about Dan 11:30-35. Yes, there will be those who forsake the holy covenant, who do wickedly against it, but there will also be those who know their God and who understand. Some of these will fall by sword, flame, captivity and plundering at the hands of the forces of the Antichrist. God will allow this in order to refine and purify them. May we remain faithful to Him when the time comes!
@AMATTEROFTRUTH Of course, protection in the end-time is conditional, cf. "Because you have kept My command to persevere..." in Rev 3.10, and "...pray always that you may be counted worthy..." in Luk 21:36.
@arovir Thank you brother for responding back to my question about Daniel and God's protection. I also believe God is calling his people to repentance and a closer walk with him in righteousness, which of course we can only accomplish BY faith and in HIS strength. Also thanks for responding to our sister in the Lord, Rileyportbay, and judging by your answer it looks as if we agree right down the line on how things are goings to take place. And yes, I believe God's GRACE will abound to us !
Thank you Mark. After a careful but simple examination of the Scriptures, one can easily see the truth about the end times. I am continually astounded by the lack of understanding and that even the Bible colleges teach a pre-trib rapture.
@CharlieO73 Hi Charles, it is good to hear from you. It has been awhile. I have to agree with you, I too am astounded as well, more particularly so when I ask God to give me a more simple way to explain the scriptures and He does, and then I share this new revelation that I think even a small child could understand and I get a reply back saying something like, Well I still don't believe God would allow his children to go through the great tribulation. I know there is nothing wrong with the SEED

Dont try to twisted, you will not twisted

so, tell me... Was that the devil?

one, you didn't prove your point, neither you gave a verse of the bible that said the Great Tribulation and the Wrath of God are not the same..
The Wrath of God start on the 6 seal...
The 7 bowl of wrath is just is for those who put the mark of the beast...
The 7 trumpets, are judgment meaning sentencing the people who ignore Jesus Christ as their savior, now they have to pay the price..
Also, answer me this question
What is the point of the Great Tribulation?
