Who says?

So, God is not holy and a not Spirit(AKA Ghost)...not a Holy Ghost? Is God an unholy thingamajigger?

Why don't ye obey Acts 2:38?

A Christian is a person that obeys this.... 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. And continues in this... 18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not...

Per the OP, you just said the book of Rev has a problem. Don't you worry, God can fix your problem. All Jews are backslid. God knows who they are. All will be saved per Jer 31. No "missing" tribes to God.

Don't snitch, but debate thy cause with thy neighbor. If you lose, modify your doctrine. Anyone that claims they have perfect truth are claiming they are equal with God. Be flexible.

No, per Matt 25, half the folks without the full Acts 2:38 experience in Christendom are left behind. They were all baptized in Jesus name to become virgins, but only half had oil(Holy Ghost). Half with the Holy Ghost are taken and half left to face the antichrist. Sinners are not “virgins”.

Yes, misrepresenting the words of Jesus Christ in the gospels and Revelation is not smart. The media may pull that stuff off with politics but Christians cannot with pull it off with God;). We gotta repeat, not redefine.

Concordances are for only jogging one's memory of what and where a particular verse is. It is not for shape shifting the word of God as the metaphorists do. It's been a while, hope you have been good my friend.

Stay away from the concordance and take the verses at face value. That is the best way to avoid calling Jesus' holy word(which we don't agree with or understand) a bunch of metaphors.

Debating is exciting, not boring

Related verses must be easy to see, not by using a concordance to match words like a game show.

Can anyone deny this scriptural order of Matt 24/1 Thes 4 comparison as accurate?

Metaphors are basically a modern English description of this...saying something but meaning something else. Interpreting a metaphor becomes open ended in interpretation, thus you ran to Job etc. without the approval of the speaker(Jesus), or the hearers(the disciples). You and others...

This is undeniable... 37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, 39 And knew not until the flood...

I care. Just asking questions you cannot answer, like how the birds and carcase verbage is not actually gathered around without a body. It is better figuring how to answer this stuff out online before you get slammed in person at a podium.

I see. You think Jesus was using a concordance. Too bad you were not there to expound to his disciples for him the elaborate explanation, huh?

35 There will be two women grinding together. One will be taken and the other left.” 37 And they said to Him, “Where, Lord?” He said to them, “Where the corpse is, there the vultures will gather.” ESV Matt 24:28 28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together. KJV...

How are those taken into the afterlife considered dead? Aren't they caught away from earthly life to eternity, as Paul similarly says "we that are alive and remain shall be caught up"?

So, no birds after all? Are you saying that Jesus was not telling the truth about the birds?
