The Case for a Post-Tribulation Second Coming

[Sel@h]

When are these rewards given? I would say the 1 Cor 3 Bema Seat Judgement.

Rewards are given at the First Resurrection (when Jesus returns at the 7th trump).

Revelation 20:4-6 (KJV) 4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and [I saw] the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received [his] mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. 5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This [is] the first resurrection. 6 Blessed and holy [is] he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

Of course I know that....but you're interpretation contradicts. It takes two different pictures presented in the bible, disregards the contradictions and tries to merge them.

What supposed contradictions are you talking about exactly?

 

[Spiritual Israelite]

If you haven't been raptured into your glorified body...that comes after the bible speaks of the marriage supper of the lamb as you claim...how is that possible?

I don't know what you're talking about. You need to learn to be more clear. The marriage supper of the Lamb will occur when Jesus returns and all believers will be there. We will be changed to have our glorified bodies when He returns. What is hard to understand about that?

Why would that be necessary?

Because in the end times satan is going to be allowed to rule this world for a time.
Jesus got 3.5 years and satan is going to get 3.5 years

2 Thessalonians 2:1-3
Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto Him,
That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.
Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition

I'm not going to let any man deceived me by any means. Of course you are free to do what you want. I'm just saying what I'm going to do. According to your faith it shall be done unto you.

The catching away of the faithful was God's idea so I'm going to take that ride with Him.
