Bingo....
I lean toward pre-trib, but you know the more I read with fresh eyes, it's really not as clear as eveyone seems to believe.

Amen!! |
I understand that but it seems that most of the killing is done by God in Revelations. There is a difference between tribulation which we all suffer at times and the "time of tribulation seen in Revelations. |
What if God allowed His Saints to be tortured and to die? What would that be to us for whom He gave His Only Begotten for? To live is Christ, to die is gain.
What can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus? |

arguments on both sides. One thing that really stumps me is why even have a rapture or catching away if it is only for the purpose of making a big U-turn in the sky and coming right back down again.

| Flesh and blood shall not inherit the kingdom of God. For the kingdom to come, and for believers to enter it, we must have glorified bodies. The resurrection/rapture of the church will be our gathering together unto Him, meeting Him in the air, after which we will return with Him to defeat all the enemies of God at Armageddon. The kingdom will then be set up, when the King comes with all his saints with him. |

| A simple request: |
Mark Ledbetter |
Please read 1 & 2 Thessalonians without preconceived positions or without commentary. Read what Paul writes about the 2nd coming... Keep everything in context.

What's the big deal if it is? Would you like to be on the earth as the wrath is poured out? I relish the thought of the last thing the Anti-Christ seeing is the bride of Christ he tried to destroy looking down on him in triumph from the skies.
