Very well done! Christ taught in his parabel about the wheat and the tears that the wicked will be gathered by angels and burned and then the righteous will be gathered next. Kind of gives a diffrent meaning to the "Left Behind". Well done. False prophets and false teachers proclaim the pre-rapture doctrine! They will be chastized during the tribulation and will burn if they don't repent.

@ApostasyRestoration Thank you! :)

Since you mention it, I have made a video about the meaning of being "left" at the coming of Christ. It's called: Taken and Left at Christ's Return - Revisted!

1 Thessalonians 4:15 "For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain to the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep." BTW: Translating today's English Bible into Greek then making assumptions is not the right way to go. The main language of the Dead Sea Scrolls is Hebrew, but there are many written in Aramaic and a FEW written in Greek.

@Zalahblue Correct me if I'm mistaken, but it seems you are saying Paul didn't write in Greek when he wrote his first letter to the church he planted in Thessalonica - situated in Greece(!) BTW: The vast majority of the New Testament Scriptures were written in Greek. And I'm not one for (as you put it) making assumptions; I draw conclusions from the text.

God bless!

you dont have a jet pack on your back, God will take you (thru) it, you will see Yeshua on ..........7-7-7.......

@arovir You'll need to correct yourself if need be. What I did comment was FEW Dead Sea Scrolls are written in 'GREEK' As to Paul writing Language, I did not comment.

@jbooks888 Well said. I was about to say the very same thing... lol!

[jbooks888]

@arovir Well, since it is not a matter of (eternal) life or death, I don't feel inclined to argue about it.

[arovir]

@jbooks888 lol! I really like your direct approach! ;) It just so happens I am very well acquainted with dear old Chuck. We disagree on a lot of things, like the great tribulation equaling the wrath of God. This conclusion is rather bad exegesis. The Rapture (which does look good when capitalized) is no more than the gathering of the saints to Christ *at* His Second Coming (now that too looks good capitalized, don't you think?).

- You will still be here in the great tribulation. Mark my words!

[jbooks888]

Totally wrong! This confuses the second coming with the Rapture, which is before the great tribulation (wrath of God.) Chuck Missler explains this thoroughly - look him up.
