  • Rod - In Reply on Ephesians 3 - 3 years ago
    Hi Ms White: Its not there, God is not sending plagues like he did in the old testament, don't be fooled by what you hear, we are under Grace, God is not punishing the belivers or sinners. God is a sovereign God and he has everything under control & for us belivers All things work together for good to those who Love God and are called according to his purpose. What good can come out of all this depends on you, if we die from it Praise God, to absent from the body and to present with the Lord. For God does not give us the Spirtit of Fear but of Power Love and of a sound mind. Rest your Faith on his Grace, his Word and His Love for You.

    Rod, God not sending plagues?

    Revelation 15:1 And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God.

    Revelation 15:6 And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed in pure and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles.

    Revelation 15:8 And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled.

    Come on Bob, we are not in Revelation today in 2020 AD, Revelation comes in effect after the Rapture or the Catching away of the Church. We under the Dispensation of Grace, where God is dispensing grace instead of God giving us sinners what we deserve. This doesnt mean God doesn't Judge, Hebrews 9:27

    And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:

    And this virus is caused by men and all others problems in this world is caused by men especially those who have rejected God and his Grace, but rest assured God will Judge when he decides.

    Rod how do people get saved in the tribulation when the dispensation of Grace is closed?

    Do they have to keep the law?
  • Bob Hilt - In Reply on Ephesians 3 - 3 years ago
    Rod please explain where the pre trib rapture is as I can not find it.

    1 Thessalonians 4:16-17

    16 ...and the dead in Christ shall RISE FIRST

    17 THEN we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them...

    In Rev. 20:4-5, John sees the souls of Saints who were BEHEADED for refusing the Mark of the Beast during the Great Tribulation. John writes that they will rise and reign with Christ for 1000 years and that this is the FIRST RESURRECTION!

    according to John, the beheaded rise in the FIRST resurrection and Paul said those who are alive and remain are not caught up until AFTER resurrection

    Paul in 1 Corinthians 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the LAST TRUMP: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

    We are changed at the LAST TRUMP and where is this found?

    In REVELATION, the LAST BOOK of the Bible there are 7 trumps and the 7th trump is the LAST ONE and is at the end of the tribulation

    What is your point? What are you tring too say? I dont underdtand your questions. Can you simply what your question is?
  • Bob Hilt - In Reply on Ephesians 3 - 3 years ago
    Rod my question is

    1. where exactly is plain scriptural proof in the Bible that shows the rapture of the church is before the tribulation period.

    and

    2. how do people get saved in the tribulation period if the dispensation of grace is closed as you mentioned

    and the church is gone in the pre trib rapture?

    Seriously I am looking for answers.
  • Mishael - In Reply on Ephesians 3 - 3 years ago
    We see in scripture that Christians are going to be caught up. Ever read the end of a book first? We all have that ability to see, to be taught to see, that something amazing is going to take place at sometime in the near future. (since signs of it are appearing on a prophetic time clock)

    If one was buying tickets to go to the super bowl; you'd buy those tickets way in advance. (Go Denver)

    Point is: we know the catching away is going to happen. We'll be going to a wedding. Right now we should be in a war room praying for those sitting on a fence in the Valley of Decision.

    Time now is for us to be ready to go.

    Time now is for us to be praying to THE LORD OF THE HARVEST to send laborers into the harvest to capture souls on their way to hell on earth with a very angry AntiChrist. (His spirit is already here)

    Choose this day who you're going to spend eternity with. Jesus or Satan? Get your oil lamps ready.

    Did you know you can go on YouTube and see people having chips put in their hands and heads? I asked God once, is Antichrist going to trick people into getting that mark? He said it's going to be a conscious decision. That is scary.

    Jesus is the ARK. God told Noah to get everyone and everything in the Ark. I think it's time for Christians to be witnessing to people & family around us. Oral Roberts once said that GO YE can mean the world, OR your own neighborhood. If you've prayed up to the Lord of the Harvest, stand back, cause you will love how the Lord brings people to you. People are going to open the door to you, or do nothing. They may get saved after the (may I say it?) Rapture, but they are facing death probably.

    Let me invite you to watch one of my favorite evangelists on YouTube preaching "What To Do If You Miss The Rapture". His name is Dwight Thompson. Before you call him a blood sucking tv evangelist... just listen with your own spirit. Don't Judge a brother or sister ok?

    Everything you question, may be answered in that
  • Rod - In Reply on Ephesians 3 - 3 years ago
    Hi Bob: Thanks for clearing up the questions, I can see now what your asking, Before i can get into a discussion about the rapture before the tribulation, 1st let me ask you this question, Is God speaking to us Gentiles today in the Gospels Example is Jesus saying to us today in

    Mark 16:15-20 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

    16He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

    17And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

    18They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

    19So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.

    20And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
