    Rapture ... soon?

    The LAST DAY must be a standard day, why? Because the dead are raised on the Last Day How much sense would it make to have the Last Day be a 1000 years long? A day is in context in scripture here as a day Also is the Day of judgment a 1000 years long? Is the appointed DAY not just a day? Acts...

    Rapture ... soon?

    The rapture at the second coming is described as the dead in Christ rising first, then we who remain alive in the flesh rise after they rise. We both rise, just that they rise up before we rise up. Only believers rise up to be with Christ. The unbelieving are also resurrected, but not to be...

    Rapture ... soon?

    No, can't say that You are not recognizing what happens when Christ returns is worldwide destruction of all the wicked and unbelieving, why do you say it is just local to Jerusalem? Because you say Christ returned in 70 AD. In a way, Christ did return in 70 AD to judge the unbelieving Jews to...

    Rapture ... soon?

    You and others aways ignore 2 Thess 1 though. And all the others that speak of the destruction of all the wicked all over the world. This is found in both old and new testaments for all the nations. Like here, Jeremiah 25 30 “Therefore prophesy against them all these words, and say to them...

    Luke 17 22 Then He said to the disciples, “The days will come when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it. 23 And they will say to you, [h]‘Look here!’ or ‘Look there!’ Do not go after them or follow them. 24 For as the lightning that flashes out of...

    Luke 19 The Parable of the Minas 11 Now as they heard these things, He spoke another parable, because He was near Jerusalem and because they thought the kingdom of God would appear immediately. 12 Therefore He said: “A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom...

    Matthew 25 14 “For the kingdom of heaven is like a man traveling to a far country, who called his own servants and delivered his goods to them. 15 And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, to each according to his own ability; and immediately he went on a journey. 16...

    Rapture ... soon?

    Do you really think Christ has returned? Or do you think Christ returns several times? 2 Thess 1 teaches us the church gains rest from trials and tribulations coming at it from the people of the world when Christ returns in flaming fire. Let's be realistic here. 3 We are bound to thank God...

    Rapture ... soon?

    Well, honestly the tribulation has not stopped yet against the church of Christ. 'Immediately after the tribulation of those days' Jesus is referring to the end of the age-world, not the end of the Romans destruction of Jerusalem. Luke 21 The Destruction of Jerusalem 20 “But when you see...

    Rapture ... soon?

    Ongoing trials and tribulations coming against the church, supporting scriptures, and the remedy is the return of Christ. That is when the people of God get relief from trials and tribulations, which have not stopped yet. John 16:33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have...

    Rapture ... soon?

    I had to shorten your post or I could not post as it is over 10000 If the Old Covenant passed away (it did), and God's true temple is now His people, (believers in Christ), then any man made temples are not the true temple of God, but men will still call such a building the temple of God and...

    Open AI, by 2030 AI becomes the supreme intelligence, far surpassing the intelligence of all people, Musk gives GROK4 to the US government for 42 cent

    The chat with Google's Lambda AI which convinced the engineer Blake to think the AI was sentient. Google immediately suspended the engineer and said it was not true. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/google-s-a-i-may-be-sentient-engineers-sound-the-alarm/vi-AA1Nm9RZ?ocid=socialshare

    Premillennialism contradicts scripture (1 Corinthians 15:50-54) by having mortal flesh and blood inheriting the kingdom of God when Jesus returns.

    Well, there are plenty of pretribbers still around, most definitely had long fruitless discussions with them also. At least people who read the forums got to see some scripture.

    I have had plenty of conversations with premill people on this subforum They don't believe when Christ returns all unbelieving are killed They believe ungodly people survive the Day of wrath They believe they will become like warrior angels, meting out punishments on the wicked survivors, who...

    Premillennialism contradicts scripture (1 Corinthians 15:50-54) by having mortal flesh and blood inheriting the kingdom of God when Jesus returns.

    Amil does not struggle with Rev 20, premill does. Premill for good reasons, struggles with 2 Thess 1 and Matthew 24, they struggle with the scriptures teaching about the second coming. Why? Because they make many assumptions based on an idea taught to them which is only about 150 years old...

    They have non lethal crowd control weapons. It makes people feel like they are burning and they have to get away. They can aim it at a giant crowd, and thousands will flee away. https://phr.org/our-work/resources/health-impacts-of-crowd-control-weapons-directed-energy-devices/

    Well, don't you agree a lot of Revelation is written in much symbolic writings and apocalyptic messaging? Why would the 1000 year reign have to be a. on the earth b. 1000 actual years Why can't it be in heaven, with the 1000 years is symbolic of an extended period of time until the New Earth...

    The AI drone wars are coming! Like Skynet, hmmm? I can't imagine what 30 to 100 more years of progress will bring.

    Premillennialism contradicts scripture (1 Corinthians 15:50-54) by having mortal flesh and blood inheriting the kingdom of God when Jesus returns.

    He really does say it happens when He returns, the first earth and first heaven pass away, and then comes the judgement. There is no mention anywhere by Christ or the apostles of a 1000 year rule on this first earth. v36, none know when the Day will come v37 to 39, the time is like Noah, the...
