Crowns (plural). It says they have crowns of gold. What we are said to receive when Jesus comes is what James called "the crown of life". Where does it say that the elders have the crown of life?

Are you purposely misrepresenting my beliefs? No, I am saying that if Noah entered the ark 6 or 7 days before the flood started then it's not logical that they would stop eating and drinking when he entered the ark. That would mean they decided to not eat or drink for several days despite the...

It's obviously highly debatable as to who the 24 elders represent. Yet, we're seeing someone base their doctrine on who they believe the 24 elders are and when they think the 24 elders go to heaven. I can't even begin to comprehend why someone would use this as part of the foundation of their...

I was talking about Daniel 9:24. Obviously, Gentiles are referenced in Ephesians 3:1-6. I showed you the proper understanding of "the time of the end" by the descriptions of "the last time" and "the last days" in the NT. That time began long ago already according to John and Peter. Why would...

That's good. You know enough to not waste time with other people like yourself then.

Why would you not equate Lot leaving Sodom with the church leaving earth the way you equate Noah entering the ark with the church leaving earth? How convenient of you to not make that comparison. It shows your bias and the lack of consistency in how you interpret scripture. LOL!!! You can't be...

That is only talking about escaping what will happen on the actual day that Jesus returns. According to Peter in 2 Peter 3:10-12 fire will come down upon the entire earth on that day. We will be caught up to meet the Lord in the air just before that happens. When interpreting scripture you...

Why in the world would you ask a fellow Christian a question like that? Come on, dude.

Yes, it's true that we will be raptured before the wrath that Paul mentions in that verse. But, what is the context of that wrath referenced in 1 Thessalonians 5:9? Did you try to find that? It can be found with what he wrote just a bit earlier. 1 Thessalonians 5:2 For yourselves know perfectly...

I know you were talking to him, but I'd like to respond to your post as well. I agree on that. Please read all of Matthew 24 before drawing conclusions from only those two verses. Your conclusions here contradict other things that Jesus said in Matthew 24. Not knowing the day or hour of His...

Okay, enough of the nonsense. Let's get to the point already. Can you show us where you think scripture implicitly teaches that the rapture is imminent, keeping in mind that you acknowledge that it doesn't teach that explicitly?

Do you equate being a Christian with being a tough guy or a non-ninny? Give me a break already! Unbelievable! We should talk with respect to each other. Don't ask ridiculous questions like if someone believes in prophecy and all that nonsense. How can you think someone wouldn't be offended by...

So, are you saying that you think the key to understanding these things that we're talking about in this thread are having a high level of things like "comprehension" and "critical thinking"? Do you think Paul would agree with that? 1 Corinthians 2:10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his...

Anyone who tries to avoid answering simple questions or can't be bothered with clarifying their answers should not be trusted. Thank you for revealing that to everyone about yourself.

Did you miss where I asked you to please be serious? Where is the insult? Is that a serious question? You don't think asking someone in this Bible Prophecy forum "Do you know what Prophecy is?" is insulting? You don't think that asking a Christian "Ever heard of the God which tells the end from...

Yes, scripture talks about those things and those things are true, but I don't see any indication that Gentiles are in view in Daniel 9:24. But, certainly, Gentile believers have been included in the blessings promised to the people of Israel. Like making reconciliation (atonement) for iniquity...

Jesus did not teach a pre-trib rapture whatsoever. He taught that His wrath would accompany His second coming. Notice that He refers to the coming of the Son of man here: Matthew 24:37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 38 For as in the days that were...

I know what I know. Whether you agree or not doesn't change that. My interpretation fits with other scripture that talks about an offer (the gospel offer) that first went out to certain people (the Jews) before later going out to other people (the Gentiles). To me, it is very obvious as to what...

What exactly do you agree with that I said then? I am saying that Matthew 22:1-14 represents the gospel going out into the whole world starting in Israel. Agree? So, it's about God's offer of salvation to people throughout the world. That's what the wedding invite represents. The ones who accept...

LOL. Such hypocrisy. You are talking about someone else slinging insults after you said insulting things like this:
