Junobet But God could just as easily said 'love your enemies' as Israel entered the promised land. Why didn't he? Stranger

Why did God not say to Israel, when they were to enter the promised land, to love your enemies? Stranger

No. Because they were not received by the Jews in Israel. Stranger

Yes, Paul was warned by people through the Holy Spirit not to go to Jerusalem. In Acts 22:17-21 you don't remember reading of this before because this is the first time Paul has said it. But it is so. After his conversion he went back to Jerusalem and there the Lord warned him to leave...

Ez. 34 does pertain to Israel because it is the shepherds of Israel that are being addressed. Ez. 34:2 "Son of man, prophecy against the shepherds of Israel...." Which makes the flock the people of Israel. Is. 35:1-10 speaks to the kingdom or millennial age which is on earth. Ps. 107 can...

We who hold to the rapture of the Church are not saying there won't be any people of God on the earth at the time of the Tribulation. There will be. They just won't be the Church. The Jews will turn back to God and place faith in Christ and receive Him as their Messiah. And any others who...

tom55 You ask who gave us the Bible. God did. Stranger

Absolutely nothing in Scripture says God will not take His people to Heaven. That is proof that He will take His people to Heaven. I am resorting to your tactics. Call them as you will. Stranger

Oh, so there are souls in heaven. What a break through that is. But you say they just arn't conscious. How silly. I am right, good to know. But, John 8:21 doesn't speak to the disciples either. So why are you quoting it? 'Probably' means nothing. Enoch and Elijah were raptured into...

Indeed, the translation of the Bible into the common language of the people whose country they were from was a major part of the Reformation. I asked you about the distribution of these translatons you speak of. Because, as I indicated, they were not always available to the people because of...

keras I have been asking you to prove a rapture won't happen all along. And you haven't. Nothing in the Scriptures you provide prove the rapture won't happen. The Lord can protect His people by leaving them or removing them. So? Stranger

I still await anyone to quote a scripture that clearly says there will be no rapture of the Church into Heaven before the Tribulation. Stranger

You wern't paying attention. That there may have been other translations before the Reformation is not the only point. That these translations were made available to the common people is. See the 1st paragraph again that I quoted form Latourette. The Reformation brought the Church back to the...

Christ is in Heaven. Good to know someone is. So, 2 Cor. 5:8 "We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord." Where does that put those who have died in Christ? In Heaven. Concerning John 7:34, Christ was speaking to a people that...

No, Isaiah made no mistake. And Jesus did fulfill the first half in His earthly ministry. The day of vengeance is later. I agree. But, that proves nothing in regards to the rapture. You just say it is wishful thinking. It is not wishful thinking because you say so. And that it is Biblical...

keras Concerning your reply #76, we discussed this on page2 of this topic already. People have already gone to heaven, remember. And God has already raptured some, remember. Where is Christ now? Stranger

Sorry to deflect the topic. Perhaps I will start a new one pertaining to these subjects. Stranger

Well, that is what we are discussing under this topic. We not only provide Scripture we believe speaks to the rapture, but we deal with Scripture you say denies any rapture. Neither your or my salvation is dependent on our beliefs concerning the rapture or whether Israel and the Church are the...

Thanks. I will check what I can. Stranger

No, I do not ignore those verses. How do I ignore them? Your answer to my statement, "that salvation at this time is offered to all does nothing to take away from the rapture", is no answer. You just repeat there is no rapture. In other words you gave no explanation. Salvation to all at...
