Part "For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words." —1st Thessalonians 4:13-18

This preacher is making no sense towards the end; he says "where's his EARTHLY kingdom gonna be? It can't be here 'cause it's gonna melt with fervent heat. Rather He's gonna come back to deliver the kingdom to the father."

If the Bible states that Jesus WILL once again return to THIS EARTH (it never ONCE speaks of "another earth" that he will return to), then how can it be that he will not be returning here? Don't listen to all this man says, read the Word for yourself and seek help when needed

@Myhopeisinhim .,,THIS time around, will be transformed into our immortal spiritual bodies once Christ returns, however, those who do not overcome will also be transformed into their spiritual bodies, except theirs will not yet be immortal (which means they are still liable to die, if they do not overcome Satan once he is loosed for a short season at the end of the Millennium). As it states in 2Peter, a thousand years with man is but one day with the Lord; hence why it's called "The Lord's Day".

@Myhopeisinhim ...truth and reign with Christ those thousand years, preaching to the multitudes of those who did not overcome death in this Earth age (the 2nd of 3). Immediately after the Millennium age comes to an end, Satan will again be loosed for a short season, to test those newly converted ones, and those who do not overcome THIS FINAL TIME, and again follow Satan, will be cast into the lake of fire along with Satan and his followers from the first earth age. Those who overcome Satan...

@Myhopeisinhim No "rapture" PERIOD. And this pastor has some of it right, but a whole lot of it dead wrong. Revelations clearly states that Christ will once again set foot here on earth on the Mount Of Olives after Satan is here 5 months playing the role of Antichrist (which means "instead of Christ") and that there most certainly WILL be a Millennium age ("The Lord's Day") where those who did overcome death (that is to say Satan, who is called "death" numerous times in the Bible) will teach...

@TheLastAaron

You mean no pre-trib rapture? or no rapture period?

[TheLastAaron]

@MrSoulja87 Or to simply read John 17:15 where Christ Himself is praying to our Creator and says "I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil."

We aren't going anywhere. We will be here during EVERYTHING, however God Himself is going to keep all of his anointed from evil. As He says to Satan and his followers: "You shall not touch one hair on the head of mine anointed." There is no rapture, and to say so in itself is blasphemous.
