    Rapture is not in the Bible

    I dream things before they happen at times, but typically just events in my own life, and typically quite a while before they happen (so I rarely if ever remember the entire content of those dreams). Since I don't believe in a lot of esoteric nonsense, I need to understand my experience in the...

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    The only link that I need to find understanding is the person of the Holy Spirit and you wont find Him in an electronic database. Seriously, if you're inclined to click on links online, I hope that you are running some really good internet security software.

    Been attacked by the devil or demon for years.. please just ask god to take it from me.

    Who's asking anyone to "sign up". Jesus healed people who believed that He received His authority from God (in other words, believers). If you'll look at what is said about Nazareth in scripture, you'll find that He did very few works there as He was received as the son of a local carpenter, not...

    Been attacked by the devil or demon for years.. please just ask god to take it from me.

    With regard to Jesus works in His "fleshly" ministry, Jesus had no need to "ask for credentials" as you say for two reasons, one being that He already knew what was in the heart of man (any man), but more significantly, He was sent to the house of Israel (according to His own words) and the vast...

    Been attacked by the devil or demon for years.. please just ask god to take it from me.

    The gospels aren't the whole bible, they are 4 very short books, the longest of which is the gospel according to Luke. If you haven't read them, then how could you possibly know what Jesus said? And who is asking for credentials? Do you speak some language other than English and are you using a...

    So you're saying that you like to blaspheme the Holy Spirit?

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    Good for you, I don't make guesses. I make analytical judgments based upon observation and in relationship to the Holy Scriptures.

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    That would depend upon who the angels were speaking to, and if they meant individuals or peoples.

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    People will still experience death during the millennial reign of Christ, but will live much longer lives than now (I'm not speaking of the resurrected saints, but of the remnant of the nations (a promise of God.) Absolutely. People have always done wickedly, but now many do wickedly under the...

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    I don't have any children that I'm aware of (and didn't transgress in that area more than 3 times) and consequently no grandchildren either. Oops, make that 4 times, I didn't count the woman that I married.

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    This was supposed to be a reply to bbybrd009, but wasn't linked by the site for some reason: This actually was begun on my tax dollars about 35 years ago under former President Ronald Reagan (ray gun) in what was called his "star wars" defense program. While I was attending SUNY @ Stony Brook...

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    I don't believe in a rapture, just the gathering of the saints from all places in heaven and Earth at Christ's return for the wedding feast of the lamb and the inauguration of the millennial reign of our Lord.

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    Well, since this thread is supposed to be reasons that the hidden doctrine is a fabrication of the evil imagination of man, why don't we just look at passages in opposition to the rapture. I actually read one in the psalms this morning. Wait on the Lord, and keep His way, And He shall exalt you...

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    Well, my understanding is that He is with us by way of His Spirit and in us if we've received Him, again by His Spirit, but He promised to return physically and the two witnesses in the beginning of the book of the acts of the apostles declared that He would return in the same manner in which He...

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    The bulk of the church at large in my native country, seems to be totally unconcerned about the 12 tribes of 12000 that God will raise up to give testimony and be martyrs during the tribulation period or reign of the antichrist. After all they're just a bunch of Jewish virgins, and surely God...

    Giants In America

    So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Romans 10:17. But, yes it is Jesus, the word of God made flesh, who saves through the agency of His Spirit.

    How to be saved (born again) and join the family of God!!

    You still haven't made any sort of cogent argument, just some fanciful accusations. What exactly are you trying to say?

    Rapture is not in the Bible

    Okay, it's not what the Lord's taught me, but I suppose that we'll all know shortly. If given the choice, I would stay behind to care for and minister to the 144,000 children that the Lord raises up as His special possession, and to the suffering lost souls deceived by Satan, but why would a God...
