    One reason why the rapture can not be post-trib

    I agree, this passage was indeed future for Isaiah. Because Isaiah's prophesy points to the first advent of the promised Messiah; Christ Jesus our Lord, Who was to come in His day. This prophesy began to be fulfilled when Jesus Christ, the Son of God came to earth a man. The prophecies cannot...

    The Orthodox Preterist versus the Heretical Dispensationalist

    Who is keeping us? Are we keeping ourselves in faith, or are we being kept through the power of God, the Holy Spirit in us? I believe we are being kept by the power of God because that is what Scripture says. The power of God is unfailing, so how could we fall away when kept by Him? 1...

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    Truth is I don't know because Scripture is not absolutely definitive about what happens to the one who dies in unbelief???? I won't give a definitive answer for something I do not know. As I've said Scripture seems to say they will be tormented forever and ever, but it also says the lake of...

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    You just don't seem to be getting it! There will not be a "second" physical and general resurrection! That implies there is more than one physical resurrection. There will only be a first or ONE physical and general resurrection for ALL who have physically died. It will not be a second, but...

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    Ecclesiastes 12:7 (KJV) Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. Yes, on the very day he died the thief according to grace through faith went to heaven a living (spirit) soul, just as the spirit of Christ went also via spirit to the...

    You've been sharing important information that is true, don't let the koolaid drinkers stop that! People need to hear the truth about what is going on in this country as well as the whole world. More and more people are waking up thanks to good folks like you. Thank you for all the...

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    According to Scripture all spirits return to God who gave them when our body dies. Only those indwelt with the life-giving Spirit return to God alive. The spirits of those who die in unbelief also returns to God who gave it, but without the life-giving Spirit. I believe that's why they are...

    One reason why the rapture can not be post-trib

    Actually the difference between you and Amil is your understanding, or lack thereof for His Word. You're reading the Word of God with a preconceived opinion, and with that opinion in mind you try very hard to force His Word to fit your opinion. In doing this you ignore contradiction your...

    One reason why the rapture can not be post-trib

    What do you believe these prophetic words are applying to? How do you reconcile them with these verses that seem to refer to things that would come to pass when the promised Messiah, Savior would come as foretold? Isaiah 11:1-5 (KJV) And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of...

    One reason why the rapture can not be post-trib

    You shouldn't! You should study for yourself to see if Amil or even Premil is biblical or not. You've made an assumption saying Amil forces contradictions into Scripture. Since we are discussing Amil could you be kind enough to bring forth the way Amil forces contradictions into God's Word...

    One reason why the rapture can not be post-trib

    As I've already explained, I wasn't proving or disproving Amil. I simply quoted Scripture that shows Christ is the man child, Son of God caught up to heaven, and when. Because you seemed to think these verses in some way prove Amil is false without explaining how they prove what you have...

    One reason why the rapture can not be post-trib

    Just because you assume Amil is false doctrine, why should I believe what you cannot biblically prove? Premil forces contradictions into Scripture, and that proves Premil is indeed unbiblical.

    One reason why the rapture can not be post-trib

    I've already responded to your post 181 in 187. Why not respond to my reply? You haven't shown Amil is not true, you simply posted verses without really explaining how you believe they prove Amil false???

    One reason why the rapture can not be post-trib

    I'm not arguing for Amil doctrine! Simply showing you what the Scripture says. You are the one who says Amil is not true, so it is incumbent upon you to prove what you allege. So far you have not.

    Please quote the verses that say our bodily resurrection at an hour coming is the first resurrection of saints from the grave, with a second bodily resurrection that will come one thousand years later???

    One reason why the rapture can not be post-trib

    How has this proven Amil is false? Christ was caught up to God in heaven after His cross & resurrection, where He received dominion, glory and a kingdom that ALL people and languages should serve Him. His dominion is everlasting, and shall never pass away, and His kingdom shall never be...

    Perhaps in the morning when you are well rested you will carefully read what I've shown you. Nowhere in Scripture indicates two separate physical resurrections from the graves. Again, good night!

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    Now you are beginning to understand. Only the spirit in man is made alive (quickened) by the Holy Spirit when we are born again. Christ NEVER promises the life we have in Him when we are born again is physical and our body will never die. When Christ says we who are born again shall never die...

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    How does this spiritual re-birth come about? Are we physically dead so that we MUST be born again? Or are we spiritually dead in trespasses and sins? Both Christ and His Apostles show us that new birth comes to us when we who are DEAD in trespasses and sin are quickened (made alive), not...

    The 144,000 before God at the end.

    No it is not! To be born again of the Spirit is to have part in the first resurrection before we physically die. Why does Christ say "Ye must be born again"? And also say "That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit."??? Man has both a spirit and...
