[quote:Achduke7:MV80NzIxMjEzXzg1OTkwOTg0XzY0QjVFQTQw] [quote:Anonymous Coward 66986450:MV80NzIxMjEzXzg1OTgyMzcwXzdFQkU1NjdC] [quote:Achduke7:MV80NzIxMjEzXzg1OTgwMzI0X0FFQURBRUFD] Where does it say that? Gen 5:23 So all the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty-five years. Gen 5:24 And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him. God took him but it does not say where. Also it says "all the days of" like he is no longer alive. [/quote] [b]Heb 11:5[/b] By faith Enoch was translated (G3346) that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated (G3346) him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. Strong's Greek: 3346. metatithemi -- I transfer, change, to turn one thing into another, to turn about, figuratively, to transmute [b]1Co 15:52 [/b] In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed (G236). Strong's Greek: 236. allassó -- to change, alter, exchange, transform, to cause one thing to cease and another to take its place, to exchange one thing for another, to transform [/quote] Interesting the word Paul used for Enoch is the same as removed, carried, deserted, etc. but not the same as Changed to what happens to our bodies. I think that Enoch was definitely carried away but I would not say he was resurrected at that time since the Bible clearly states Christ was the first to rise from the dead. So if Enoch had not risen from the dead had he died before Christ or was he still alive? The Bible definitely makes it seem like he had died. Maybe not a normal death but still passing from living to death. [i]Gen 5:23 So [b]all the days of Enoch [/b]were three hundred and sixty-five years. [/i] [/quote]
Original Message
I am a non denominational Christian. I believe Jesus Christ died for my sins, was crucified on the cross, and rose from the grave. I believe in heaven and hell. I believe I am saved only by Grace.
Whith that said I dont know where I stand on the Rapture? Please tell me where that word is used one time in the bible?
