Jesus was talking about the coming Great Tribulation - Luke 21:25-26 (WEB): (25) There will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars; and on the earth anxiety of nations, in perplexity for the roaring of the sea and the waves; (26) men fainting for fear, and for expectation of the things which...

All the reasons and arguments in the video are based on Scripture. I urge you to watch it, but like leading a horse to water, I can't make you drink it! One verse that is mentioned in the video is Jesus saying, Luke 21:36 (WEB): (36) Therefore be watchful all the time, praying that you may...

I recommend that you watch this video - 3 Undeniable Reasons the Rapture is Pre-Trib. Then you will see that your statements are wrong. 1 Thessalonians 5:9-11 (WEB): (9) For God didn’t appoint us to wrath, but to the obtaining of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, (10) who died for us...

Paul did not form the body of Christ, he merely explained it by teaching the analogy - 1 Corinthians 12:4-27 (WEB): (4) Now there are various kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit. (5) There are various kinds of service, and the same Lord. (6) There are various kinds of workings, but the same...

Ephesians 4:4-5 (WEB): (4) There is one body, and one Spirit, even as you also were called in one hope of your calling; (5) one Lord, one faith, one baptism,

There is no division of the body of Christ, we are all equal in Christ. Remember Galatians 3:28 (WEB): (28) There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.

Paul wrote 2 Corinthians 1:19 (WEB): (19) For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, by me, Silvanus, and Timothy, was not “Yes and no,” but in him is “Yes.” And Peter wrote, 1 Peter 5:12 (WEB): (12) Through Silvanus, our faithful brother, as I consider him, I have...

So are you saying Paul was wrong, or that Peter was not writing to Christians about our Christian faith? There are many verses which imply that he was writing to Christians. How about this verse: 1 Peter 4:16 (WEB): (16) But if one of you suffers for being a Christian, let him not be...

I believe Peter's letter was written to Christians, whether they were formerly Jews or gentiles ("Because all of you are one in the Messiah Jesus, a person is no longer a Jew or a Greek, a slave or a free person, a male or a female", Galatians 3:28, ISV): 1 Peter 1:1-3 (ISV): (1) From: Peter...

1 Peter 2:9 (WEB): (9) But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, that you may proclaim the excellence of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light: If Christians are to be priests in God's kingdom, where will they be...

Beacause Israel will be representatives of the heavenly Kingdom on the earth, through whose instrumentality the nations may enter into the blessings of the Kingdom. All nations will know that our almighty God is the same God who is the God of Israel. After God told Ezekiel that He would...

Whether we are the body or the bride of Christ (or both!), we will be dwelling with him. Jesus, our bridegroom, left us to prepare homes for us in his Father's house - John 14:2-3 (WEB): (2) In my Father’s house are many homes. If it weren’t so, I would have told you. I am going to prepare a...

2 Corinthians 11:2 (KJV): (2) For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. Barnes' Notes on verse 2 says: That I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ - The allusion here, according to...

But that would still be referring to the Church!

This passage is talking about the end of the Millennial Age and the beginning of eternity. It says that God will dwell "with men" (Revelation 21:3), or as the ISV translates it "among humans", and that God "will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them...
