    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    That sure is a beautiful scripture. In Christ, we will all be saved and the remnant Israel (of the twelve tribes) will be saved during the GT. Romans 11 confirms this. Israel is referred to as the first fruits. They were the chosen nation and first ones to receive the Lord and salvation. Then...

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    You used John 1:10-13 (as if It equipped you with a measuring stick) to interpret Revelation's 144k Jews. That is what I refuted, not scripture. Don't twist things. This description of the New Jerusalem is to be taken literally and that btw happens after the GT, after the Millennial Kingdom...

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    I just refuted that verse as being applicable to Rev. 7 & 14. Try harder to overwhelm me.

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    We weren't "born again" of blood. That is not the evidence that overwhelmed you concerning the 144k. So where is it?

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    Well I guess you are overwhelmed. You can present this evidence, maybe I'll be overwhelmed - haven't seen it yet.

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    So, you don't believe God has the power to survive bloodlines of these tribes throughout the generations? They were physically scattered, broken up as tribes, yet individually, their generations were propagated (unbeknownst to them). Do you believe the old saying, "Marriages are made in heaven"...

    What would be the importance of fasting?

    Fasting, (that is not eating for several days or more) accomplishes several things. 1. It gives you more mental clarity. When our digestive system is working all day, your mind can get sluggish. After I eat, I want to shut down and take a nap, I get tired. Usually the digestive system is...

    I have noticed the following Negatives about the 'rapture'...

    It"s a nice tale, I like it ... it's fits. You don't really need this tale to know that the Groom will soon come to get His Bride when the Father tells Him to. The trumpets will blow and we will be taken up and then we will certainly celebrate that!

    I have noticed the following Negatives about the 'rapture'...

    Josephus should have known, he became a governor of Galilee didn't he? Searching his works, *dozens of books) would be a task - Good luck with that. Don't think it was in the Mishnah or Talmud,the Jewish virgin was to be married on the 4th day of the week. Here is more detail, but ancient...

    I have noticed the following Negatives about the 'rapture'...

    Thank you. That is Preterism and also Amillennialism. Now you know. Btw we have communicated a dozen times in the past on the same subject - look it up by doing a search with both our names. We had no lengthy debates though as you typically respond by just saying thank you for your input.

    I have noticed the following Negatives about the 'rapture'...

    Really? Let's clear up now. 1. Do you believe that the events in Revelation 6-20 will literally take place or that they have already taken place? 2. More specifically, do you believe in a literal Millennial Kingdom _ on earth _ after the Great Tribulation is over _ that will literally be ruled...

    I have noticed the following Negatives about the 'rapture'...

    Do you have a problem with Jesus bodily ressurrection? His body was transformed into a spiritual body - capable of appearing and disappearing in both dimensions - as angels do. They touched Him, saw His scars, He ate with them. He met the Disciples in Galilee. Do you think He walked for three...

    I have noticed the following Negatives about the 'rapture'...

    You are an Amillenmialist, of course what I say will sound off to you. You will soon be taken by surprise when we are all ushered into the Great Tribulation and will scratch yoir head and wrestle with your Preterist views for awhile until you finally dismiss them. Get ready.

    Woe To Them That Are With Child

    "Woe to them that are with child and to those that are nursing" is to be taken literally. The context of Matthew 24:19 is the Great Tribulation. Specifically a message to the Jews in Israel, when it is being attacked (by the Beast/Ten Islamic nations assisted by Russia as well), you need to...

    I have noticed the following Negatives about the 'rapture'...

    Yes I believe Jesus _ after He as ended into heaven _ was then given the scroll and He opened the seals. It was a written document (spiritual in the heavens, like a play book), plans to be carried out in the future. Why do I say this? Because after each seal is opened, the angel says " "come...

    I have noticed the following Negatives about the 'rapture'...

    Daniel 12 tells us certain things about the end times that are to be sealed up ... The Bible says we have blurry vision, that the mystery of God would be revealed at the 7th Tumpet. No one knows the day of hour. Revelation is not a straight forward prophetic series of events easily understood...

    I have noticed the following Negatives about the 'rapture'...

    There is a logical explanation as to why there are so many views _ yet we are all guided by the Holy Spirit. His end time plan is mysterious and the order of events are uncertain because He planned it that way. Every generation needed to have this sense of imminency of His return, and...

    Do you have a calling?

    Every part of God's perfect plan for humanity throughout history involves all of us. In essense, it is all a done deal in His mind but just hasn't been fully consummated yet! Every action AND inaction, whether good or evil has a purpose. Concerning the good things, God is instructing us to do...

    Are you here to convert people?

    It's okay, you can't grasp the concept. Jesus expected that some would not; "Who, as He already existed in the form of God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped," Phil. 2:6

    Are you here to convert people?

    @Matthias Church history did not lead you to Christ. Church history may confirm your conversion; but the Holy Spirit led you to Christ, Who is the Way, the Truth and the Life, the Alpha and Omega, the Good Shepherd, the Bread of Life, the Vine, the Light of Men, the Door, the Creator. It is...
