Steve: We must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God. Acts 14:22 / Immediately after The Tribulation, The Lord will send His Angels to do what? Matthew 24: 29-31 / We Glory in Tribulation---Knowing Tribulation worketh patience. Romans 5:3
I agree with Lynn about pre-trib rapture. 2Thessalonians 2:7 tells us that the church will continue to hinder lawlessness until the rapture. AND THEN the antichrist will be revealed. This is conclusive proof that the rapture takes place before Daniels 70th week and the tribulation of Rev. 6-1 to 19:21. The church is caught up in Rev.4:1 and the following judgments are after the church is raptured
Mike; When the Son of God, who cannot lie, said emphatically that NO ONE KNOWS THE DAY NOR THE HOUR BUT THE FATHER; who says otherwise but false prophets and those who lust after their own glory! We know that the Lord said, that He would not leave us nor forsake us; and that His greatest heart desire is for us to be with Him where He is!
Lynn; You are not understanding right about the tribulation and sufferings attended to this present evil world, and the appointment and purposes of God in our filling up the sufferings of Christ in His Body! The completion of the age is marked especially as casting away of all restraint and transgressors coming to the full; wherefore it is said, "Here is the patient endurance of the Saints."
I am totally pre-trib and here is why 1st and foremost why would the Lord beat his Bride up before the marriage? The Tribulation is for Jews. Saved gentiles are the bride along with Jews who believe also. Isaiah 26:20 Come my people enter in to thy chambers and shut thy doors about thee : hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be over past.
Mountains and Earth shall pass away but God's words will stay. Jesus words will not return to him void. Lets prepare ourselves for the second coming of Jesus and praise him and worship him for he is worthy. If you will be found in the church serving Jesus you will be saved Jesus will come to take back his church as a bride in heaven amen
I can tell you the exact day and hour the messiah will return. Three and a half days after the two witnesses are killed. The part that confuses most people is the fact that there are 2 resurrections. The first occurs after the 2 witnesses are killed but after the 1000 year millennium and satan becomes loosened after a little season this is the day and hour no man knows or the second resurrection..
Voice of love speak; You are right! I found the same as you, once I could freely read the Scriptures for myself and found that ALL the words of the Prophets and Apostles, and the Lord Jesus Himself, ONLY say just that! If we are already used to the Narrow Way walking with Jesus every day, then we won't be offended or misled when the whole world collapses under its own rebellion and confusion!
Every time I read this it makes it harder to believe in pretrib rap. He talks about our faith being put to the ultimate test and many falling away in other scripture. The design of this chapter lines out post trib rap to me. All of the disciples minus John I believe were martyr'd for there faith. I think it's naïve to think that we won't be tested and go thru suffering Matt:9 -22.I pray Im wrong
AMEN Addo, Ana, Barbara, Daniel, Geraldine, Lady A, Love for Truth! Ya know when I was just newly saved and started reading in the long chapters with the genealogies and lists of names I could sometimes hardly pronounce; I didn't realize that each one of those names was a life, and a person, and that it was a small section of the Lamb's Book of Life. We are each one of us precious to the LORD!
Amen Matthew 24 29-30saythe Truth says post tribulation return of Christ.The liars say pretribulation return of Christ .I know His voice another voice I will not follow Amen verse 36 no man will ever know day date or hour but the word says the antichrist must reign first 2Thess2 Rev13
It's true no one knows the day or the hour but we have signs to look for his coming according to mathew 24.The parable of the ten virgins.we need to be always ready.Jesus Christ is the only way to heaven.We need to believe in Jesus Christ and obey God's word fully.Without righteousness no one will see God the bible says.
Are you ready? HE is COMING SOON! HE is EVEN AT THE DOOR! Have you given your life to Jesus? Open your heart's to Him give Him your life NOW except His love for you, ask Jesus in your heart now is the time, turn from your evil way tell Him you love Him and ask Him to come in your heart's ,and be borne again be His child for ever! MATTHEW 24 is for such a time like this be ye stedfast
None of many will not be ready. He will come like a thief in the night. Be not afraid. If you love Jesus and keep the commandments God handed down through Moses than you will pray that Christ comes sooner. Teach your children the scriptures, pray with them. Teach them to love and not hate. Forgive those that curse you. Pray often for forgiveness. He will forgive you also. Christ gave his for us. ���
Verse 30: The sign of the Son of Man mentioned here is different from the sign of Jesus' presence. The enemies of God will realize that this is something supernatural from God.
dis-: Yes it's all about Israel. The Land Reborn-again 1948. THE LORD said HE WILL BRING IT TO BE. There has always been wars. The Start of Spring was 1948. We are in or Heading To Summer. The End has Begun With Israel back in The Picture. Stay in The Bible Only. There are a lot of Posts that will Lead to The Wide Gate, many will go that way! Satan will keep you from Studying The Bible and Prayer
"Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: so likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors." The point of this parable is NOT to use the fig tree in some kind of symbolism, to mean Israel (for example); but for how when we shall see the "yet tender" evil beginning to spring.
"Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened..then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven..they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory..And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect.." WE MUST ENDURE TO THE END TO BE SAVED!
Lu2677 cont.; We will undoubtedly come across many that will only seek to oppose and contradict us; and sometimes those that are just speaking things because they heard some one else say them; and those also who have a very small and underdeveloped understanding: whatever the case, we have the Master as our Leader and example to follow when dealing with all kinds, and His Spirit speaking in us.
Lu2677 cont. The way I understand it, we are under a charge from God to teach all men to observe (keep and do) all things that Jesus commands us; that we are His Ambassadors and Friends, sent to "Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long-suffering and doctrine:"(2 Tim.4:2) "These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority."(Tit.2:15).
Hello Lu2677, nice to hear from you again :) Deuteronomy 29:29; Matthew 6:4,6,18; Ezekiel 8:12; etc.. In Moses "the secret things" has to do with how the people would eventually be punished severely for forsaking the Holy Covenant, in light of their inward defiance and disbelief. The Lord teaches us about our religion being in truth in the inward parts. Ezekiel was shown their secret sinful minds.
disciple;3 days ago;"the secret things that belong to God.'Where can I find knowledge of this concept? We are not to judge the things that are doubtful,or dispute over words;I agree.
It appears that my questions are often mistaken for judgement, by many here. "We don't know all the things He has shown them."Impossible to know all.When they write untruth, and opinions,let's shed His light on it.
