rapture is not in the bible but the word bible is not in the bible. May the lord have mercy on you

[PreacherNorm]

Actually, the word "Bible" comes from the Greek word "biblos" and is found ten times in the New Testament. It is very telling that the best argument you can come up with to attack my exposure of the Rapture doctrine to be false is the point of saying that the word is not in the Bible. The point is that neither the word nor the idea of the Premillennial Rapture doctrine is in the Bible. And its not!

I've started a discussion of this issue on my blog at bibleqna . com. Be sure to check that out and keep up with that. Your man might need the help. I'm hoping that he will be posting his first response soon.

I can't tell you how many times I have emailed him and he refuses to answer me.... Odd. I am a Southern Baptist and I have challenged his teaching and he can't or won't talk to me....

The rapture is bad teaching.

@Delaney1201 what is a southern baptist according to the BIBLE?

[rossdaboss1959]

Another false prophet. 

[JesusHoldMyHand1]

Jesus gave us 2 short parables about the Rapture. Please take a few minutes to read:

Matthew 25:1-13

Matthew 24:36-44

God Bless those who understand. MARANATHA

Jesus comes as a thief in the night (quickly, suddenly, quietly) VS Jesus comes in Great Power & Glory & EVERY eye will see Him...Jesus comes when we LEAST expect Him (eating & drinking; marrying & giving in marriage; buying & selling; planting & building) VS nuclear war, all mountains/islands disappear, oceans turn to blood/everything dies, 100# hailstones, plagues, massive earthquakes & starvation, boils from the sun, all greenery dies, satanic men cutting off people's heads...

You are wrong... The essence of rapture is Biblical Truth... Learn more about Jewish Feasts and especially about the Feast of Trumpets... Regards.

Im ready for the pre trib - God's wrath + thers quite a bit in the 1st 1/2 - is not for his body of Christ = IF it 's mid trib -like Rev 11;15 shows the last trumpet blowing- then we'll hav a little longer to inform others

Rapture is not in the Bible..but "gathering" is...meaning..being taken from one place and taken to another.You sir,are leading many...many people to be left on earth or possibly..taking 666 because they weren't prepared for whats to come.

[704forlife22]

@etatslartnec I agree with you....and there will be a rapture and there will be many wolfs in sheeps clothing.Like many..."preachers".

[rossdaboss1959]

U are a false unlearned so called preacher. After the rapture, u better know how to run, because those who u cause to get left behind with that false teachings will come after u. U will hate yourself that u didn't really study and ask God for the truth. Have u even received the Holy Ghost like they received on Pentecost?

@1tim31617 Yes for a true believer our battles are not with flesh and blood, BUT there are still wars in this present world. When Jesus comes again to reign ON the EARTH all the weapons of war will be beat into tools that are useful for mankind Isaiah 2:4 "And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: NATION shall not lift up sword against NATION, NEITHER shall THEY LEARN WAR ANY MORE.
