    Rapture ... soon?

    I'm not sure! I have never heard this view. Please clarify if SI is accurate? I am not sure why you would get so uncomfortable apart from knowing your view is unbiblical. Do you believe that demons or demonic spirits are real? No, I do not. Do you believe they are fallen angels? I do not...

    Ephesians 6:12: “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities [Gr. archē or chief or principal rulers], against powers [Gr. exousia or authorities], against the rulers of the darkness of this world [Gr. kosmokratōr ho skotos toutou aiōn or rulers of the obscurity of...

    Rapture ... soon?

    So, Is Satan a supernatural being? Is he an evil angel? Is he an entity separate from man? Or, is he just an influence? Or, is Satan abstract "conscience" or the innate "evil spirit" of unregenerate man? Are demons spirits? Are they invisible? Are they heavenly agents? Are they human spirits?

    Rapture ... soon?

    Show us any Scripture that teaches a rapture of the Church, followed by a tribulation period of any length, followed by a third coming of the Lord?

    So, what would you prefer me to use to describe that which denies that Satan and demons are real entities - goofy?

    They are defensive and evasive because they are promoting error. They cannot even tell us what they believe. They cannot answer simple questions. They are answering questions with questions.

    You already admitted what we are promoting is "the traditional understanding, handed down through the ages." You guys have invented some doctrine (that obviously TW taught you) that you cannot defend. You have been left holding the baby.

    So Satan is not an evil angel? He is not an entity separate from man? Is he just an influence? Or, is Satan abstract "conscience" or the innate "evil spirit" of unregenerate man?

    In 2 Kings 6 the king of Syria prepared an impressive army for the purpose of nullifying Elisha. 2 Kings 6: 15 And when the servant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth, behold, an host compassed the city both with horses and chariots. And his servant said unto him, Alas, my...

    Exactly. You are acting like a Pretribber now because you cannot explain your position.

    I presented a detailed post above that you ducked around.

    Rapture ... soon?

    Not true. You are the one making the wild claims. You are the one inventing a new unorthodox doctrine that doesn't correspond with Scripture or make sense. My position is orthodox. It is not hard to grasp. It is written throughout the Word. Show your hand. If you had the truth you would stop...

    Mat 28:2 And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it. Mat 28:3 His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow: Mat 28:4 And for fear of him the keepers did...

    Matt 26:52-53 52 Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword. 53 Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels? Who were these angels? where...

    Rapture ... soon?

    Do they have personalities? Where did they come from? Were they created? Where is their abode? So, what happens after we are saved? Do they stop protecting us and keeping us from death?

    2 Kings 19:35 tells us: “the angel of the LORD went out, and killed in the camp of the one hundred and eighty-five thousand; and when people arose early in the morning, there were the corpses—all dead.”

    Rapture ... soon?

    This is as clear as mud. I can see why you are both so defensive and evasive. What are these spirits? Are they invisible? Are they heavenly agents? Are they human spirits? The Spirit of God is NOT plural, but one.
