Once again, Matt.24 is not about the rapture, it's a picture of the tribulation, that if Jesus didn't come to earth no one would survive, "But for the "Elect's" sake those days would be shortened"....

Oh, and by the way, if you don't believe in a rapture then the next time you're trying to lead someone to the Lord, tell them that after the 1st horseman, (the anti-christ,) arrives and signs the...

Sorry, I felt I had to return to this thread.
We DO have proof of the rapture for all those who have been so deceived by Satan's lies.
Darby was NOT some lunatic who "invented" the rapture.

I'm sorry Alabama358, a couple of the previous posts served to re-remind me of the futility of getting bogged down in arguments about Scripture which are not "mission critical" to the primary task of...

The "church" does not come "Out" of the tribulation, it's gone beforehand.
If you go back to Rev. 6:11 you'll see that the "great multitude" are all wearing white robes.

Back at the 5th seal you see those who have been "slain" as under the alter crying out "when will we be revenged".
These are not people who were killed by a hailstone or a building falling on them....

The rapture is for the "church", also known as "the bride", or "the bride of Christ".
Some posit that the "church age" started with "died on the cross/rose from the dead", others, (me too,) believe...

When the nations see the Lord coming in power and glory, and great trumpet sounds, and all the tribes mourn is not a picture of the Rapture, in the rapture no one sees anything, the church just...

I'll try to answer in as few words as I can.
I'll preface by saying that the path to salvation has always been open to all people thru out all time, from the time God created Adam.

Alabama358, please, don't be pedantic.
You ask me about what parts of NT are written mostly to Jews, but then you quote me as saying that much of the Bible is written to Jews.

I too use a 696. You know, for a gun that was not a big seller, and many denigrated as neither "fish-nor-fowl", the 696 has now become a "grail", must-have for S&W collectors and prices have...

Having several Bibles of various translative efforts is all well and good.

So, you believe that the prophecies in Daniel were all fulfilled by the first century AD, and that Israel found the end of its fulfillment as a "Christian" church when it was destroyed in 70AD?

One can come to their own conclusions about numbers/percentages of those who believe in the Rapture. I think that a few believe in a post-trib, many believe in a mid-trib, and most believe in a...
There just isn't enough room between the cylinder pin and the O.D. of the cylinder to fit holes big enough and still have the wall thickness to take much load.

We, (me too,) sometimes need to go back and see what was going on in past times.
