    I feel we're in it now...

    Jesus called it "the beginning of sorrows" (Matthew 24:6-8). In Matthew 24:6 though, He revealed a point which many miss. He said we would hear of wars and rumors of wars, but don't be troubled, because the end is not yet. Many preachers simply skip over that last part underlined above...

    Help with John 1:12-13

    What you have run into is the difference between one that is 'called' only, vs. one who is 'called' and 'chosen', like Christ's Apostles. If you'll notice, Jesus went to His Apostles and told them to follow, and they dropped what they were doing and followed Him. Was there any decision on their...

    JESUS Told Us This Would Happen In The Last Days = Matthew 10;21

    You have misunderstood what Lord Jesus was pointing to 'specifically' in those Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21 chapters, which is for the end of this world. Those chapters are about Jesus' Olivet discourse when He gave the main seven Signs at the end of this world leading up to His future...

    Jesus was made Lord and Christ at His resurrection

    Lord Jesus Christ never was literally 'made' (i.e., created). Jesus is God come in the flesh, which is the meaning of His name Immanuel (Matthew 1:23). You are confusing His flesh body with His Spirit. It was His flesh body that was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of...

    The Rapture vs. the Pre-tribulational Rapture

    Christ's flesh body was raised, but then 'transfigured' to "a quickening spirit". That is what the Scriptures are revealing. That happened only for Lord Jesus, as even Acts 2:27 shows that Jesus' flesh would not see corruption (i.e., decay in the tomb). Paul made it plain that flesh and blood...

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    I disagree with you. The ending of sacrifices and/or placing of the abomination is mentioned in Daniel 7, Daniel 8, Daniel 9, Daniel 11, and Daniel 12. So your theory doesn't carry much weight according to the written Word of God. Not interested 'how many' believe this or that. What God's...

    God does not have a timeline.

    There it is, that fallacy of trying to use Jewish feasts to calculate when Lord Jesus will return. The ONLY literal 'season' Lord Jesus gave for the time of His return is the 'summer' harvest. And He gave that as a symbolic contrast to the false Messiah that is to come in the spring.

    What does the bible say happens when you die

    According to unbelievers, what Jesus said here about the existence of Paradise was a lie also... Luke 23:42-43 42 And he said unto Jesus, "Lord, remember me when Thou comest into Thy kingdom." 43 And Jesus said unto him, "Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with Me in paradise." KJV

    The Rapture vs. the Pre-tribulational Rapture

    Eventually, yes. In 1 Corinthians 15:45-47, Paul showed that Jesus' body was made "a quickening spirit"... 1 Cor 15:45 45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. KJV 1 Cor 15:47 47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the...

    The Rapture vs. the Pre-tribulational Rapture

    Read 1 Corinthians 15:35-54. The body type of the resurrection, AND of the future world, is a "spiritual body" according to Paul. That is the type body the resurrection is, and is the type body those alive on earth when Jesus comes will be 'changed' to. The only... type of death remaining...

    The Rapture vs. the Pre-tribulational Rapture

    And those of us who 'know' Christ's coming to gather His saints AFTER the tribulation is according to His written Word, and not man's tinkering with a false pre-trib rapture theory. For those who want to know, see Matthew 24:29-31 and Mark 13:24-27 where Jesus revealed His coming to gather His...

    The Rapture vs. the Pre-tribulational Rapture

    You have missed also that the final 7th Vial is cast into the "air", and not on the earth. That is pointing to the same idea Paul was pointing to in 1 Thess.4, because in 1 Cor.15 Paul showed on the "last trump" those alive on earth will be 'changed', at the twinkling of an eye. And Peter also...

    The Rapture vs. the Pre-tribulational Rapture

    The idea of a "pre-tribulation rapture" is FALSE. The idea of a rapture immediately AFTER the great tribulation is TRUE.

    The Rapture vs. the Pre-tribulational Rapture

    What Paul showed in 1 Thess.4:13-17 is not spiritual philosophy, but literal truth that will occur on the day of Christ's future return. The idea of the saints still alive on earth being "caught up" in the "air" is about the future change on the "last trump" of 1 Cor.15 that Paul taught. At...

    The Rapture vs. the Pre-tribulational Rapture

    And you are correct, that is exactly what that is pointing to. But don't stop there, because the greater detail of Christ's future return and gathering of His saints is written in Zechariah 14, and in His Olivet discourse (Matthew 24:29-31 and Mark 13:24-27).

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    I don't understand your statement that Dan 7 is the only place the OT Antichrist is mentioned in detail. I actually consider Daniel 8 about the "little horn" and "king of fierce countenance" having much detail about the coming Antichrist at the end. There we are told he will cause craft to...

    God does not have a timeline.

    Yes, we can know the 'season', and that's what the Signs He gave in His Olivet discourse are for, leading up to His future return. And that does away with any idea of date setting or trying to calculate the day, including by the Jewish calendar or any other calendar or 6,000 year assumption.

    Paul claimed 3 times that Revelation 20:4 was a current reality.

    First mention of a 1260 day period is with Rev.12:6, prior to the war in Heaven. Rev 12:6 6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days. KJV 2nd mention of a 1260 day period is after...

    What does the bible say happens when you die

    Nah, you deny that the parameters of the story Jesus gave are false, which is basically calling Lord Jesus a liar. He would not mislead us by giving us false objects in that story about Lazarus and the rich man, regardless of whether or not Lazarus and the rich man were fictitious. So you really...

    God does not have a timeline.

    Can't know the month or year either. We can only know as the time gets closer by watching the Signs He commanded us to watch. For example, when God's two witnesses are killed in Jerusalem and left laying in the street for 3.5 days, that within the 6th Trumpet - 2nd Woe period. Jesus returns on...
