How is God's wrath appeased through Christ's suffering on the Cross; if it is not in that Christ took the penalty for our sins?

I provided a passage saying that God has magnified His word above all His name (Psalms 138:2). I'm sorry, I didn't see what passage you provided in order to substantiate your pov.

Personally, I believe in a pre-tribulation rapture because of Revelation 3:10.

Did Jesus suffer and die on the Cross? And, did He suffer and die instead of us (for that is what is implied by the word propitiation)? If Jesus suffered and died in our place, then I consider that He took our punishment. But if you agree that He suffered and died in our place, but say that...

When God says that the holy scripture is magnified above His name, for us to magnify the word in the same manner would not be in fact idolatry.

Since you don't accept the common meaning of the word propitiation, I don't have anything for you. But if you would accept that propitiation means "appeasement of wrath or justice" I would offer as evidence those verses that include that word in their makeup.

What verse says that Christ is a superior gift to holy scripture? What verse says that PSA is an invalid doctrine? I would say that men reject the Bible because they don't want to hear from God.

Just as you say that PSA is not in the Bible, so I say that your understanding here is not in the Bible. You have one of two options: 1) Admit that PSA is a valid (sound) doctrine even though you may not be able to find it in your Bible; or, 2) Concede that your understanding on this subject...

kjv: Pro 13:22, A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children's children: and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just. Pro 13:23, Much food is in the tillage of the poor: but there is that is destroyed for want of judgment. Pro 13:24, He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he...

That the rapture will occur (whether pre-trib, mid-trib, post-trib, or post-mil) is sound doctrine.

See 2 Timothy 3:16.

The timing of the rapture is nearer today than it was even one day ago. And, no one knows the day or the hour; So, it could happen one second from now, or it could happen 500 years from now or later; or it could happen sometime in between. An exhortation about considering that the wait may be...

Adultery and fornication aren't sins? You are way out in left field... See James 4:7 and 1 Peter 5:8-9. Even under grace, we are to strive against sin; for in Hebrews, which is written to those whoa re under grace, we find: Heb 12:4, Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against...

I always place the holy scriptures in bold type to distinguish them from the rest of my message. And then, I emphasize what is most important in those scriptures by putting that in large print. I do this for distinction and to make what I am saying clearer. And I know very well that the...

All scripture is inspired of the Lord and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness (2 Timothy 3:16). Indeed, Romans 4:2 bears this out. Now before man, we show forth our living faith by our works; while before God, who sees the invisible...

Reminiscent of "where is the promise of his coming?" (2 Peter 3:3-4). Those who are even in the graves are in fact looking for Him from their position of being in soul-sleep, if that be a reality (while 2 Corinthians 5:8 appears to denounce the idea, it appears to be also substantiated by...

I can hardly believe that you are contending for this. We are not to muzzle the ox that treadeth out the grain, and, the labourer is worthy of his reward, should speak volumes. This kind of statement ("let the pastor take an outside job") can only be made by someone who is biblically...

You are asking for anarchy and mayhem. Criminals committing crimes without any repercussions. Crime rates rising and victims being made more abundant. I know that this is late to the game; but I wanted to throw this in at this point because it needs to be said.

@historyb, You have been tagged; so we know that if you do not give an answer to my question, it is because you don't have an answer to my question, and that it is not that you didn't get wind of my question.

Please remember that no prophecy of scripture is of any private interpretation (2 Peter 1:20). So if you have an alternate interpretation of 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, please make it public. To @historyb.
