Prove the Pre-trib Rapture

[Ed Edwards]

I'm going where folks read posts and respond
to them

The BB now has way to many Eschatological topics.
I'm spending more time on Eschatology than
working

I'll be responding to these and other matters
at this location:

Click it and check it out.

(BTW, the non-baptists seem to be more
congenial than baptists anyway )

If all the Christians and the Holy Spirit are taken out of the world who is going to witness to all these Jews?

Simple! The two witnesses - who will be slain in the streets of Jerusalem and the whole world will see them (via cable news). Tbe world will exchange gifts over it. Then they come back to life and ascend to heaven. Some people think they will be Elijah and Moses. Or at least Elijah. But it doesn't matter. They are two witnesses who will come and do miracles.

Also, the time of the Gentiles being fulfilled is somewhere there - like at the end of the Church Age, aka Rapture.

All I need to say to prove pre-tribulation rapture is read 1 Thessalonians 1:10

Shame on you!

How CAN you possibly say that?

Isn't the doctrine of whether Jesus will come before or after a tribulation much, much, much more vital for us to be convinced about than :

1) who Christ is ( e g the meaning of 'Son of God') ,

2) or how He relates to the other trinal Persons (eg in what way is God the head of Christ?) ,

3) or how He acquired salvation for us (eg theories of the atonement),

4) or how salvation is applied(eg which of the several views of the baptism with the HS is correct?)

Let us not take from away the tribulational tenet its rightful position as the most important, by far, of all doctrines.

After all, what other doctrine sells so many novels?

faithtrustbelief,

Does 1 Thess. 1:10 saying 'wrath' is so called, 'seven year of tribulation period'?

In Christ
Rev. 22;20-Amen!
