Bible Discussion Thread

In response to Mary, I sense a question when you say, I believe I am ready. Talk with your clergy now. I would love to discuss this with you, but there is not enough space. The reason I say that is because I also believed that I was saved and secure, and going to live eternally with Christ. The fact was that I had never totally surrendered my life to the Lord. I no longer believe I am ready for the rapture, I KNOW with certainty. A reverent fear of the Lord is good, but if your fear is stemming from a nagging in your spirit that you may have never been truly born again, that is something more. I so wish I could talk to you at length, because this is life and death. My prayer is that the Lord will make a way for you to speak personally to a doctrinally sound minister now. If I misunderstood your post, I apologize. None of us want to face death, nor the return of our Lord without complete assurance that we are HIS. Love to you in Christ.
