Re: 10 More Amazing Proofs For The Pre tribulation Rapture
Where is it written one must believe pre-trib to be saved?

It is not written anywhere and if it is not relevant to salvation, then it means nothing.

Salvation is not dependent on ones belief of pre trib, so the entire subject is stupid.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 71408469

No one here is suggesting one must believe in Pretribulationism to be saved. You are attempting to make a straw man fallacy about it.

It is true that one's End Times views do not determine salvation. But to suggest all the other doctrines of the bible 'mean nothing' is a serious problem. The totality of the bible is about the glorification of Yahweh(God) and His son Yahshua(Jesus.) It's not all about you and your salvation.

And the subject is far from stupid as it can possibly affect whether you receive a crown or not from Yahshua at the Bema Judgment Seat of Christ. He has promised us a Crown of Righteousness if we look for and desire His soon return. So if you are not looking for it, if you are asleep and not on watch, He will catch you asleep, unaware and with your pants down upon His return. And you may miss out on the blessings He has for us who watch and wait expectantly for our Savior, Master and Bridegroom.

Maranatha!

.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 66738521


And there it is, the "Crown" BS. The idea that one saved man or woman is higher ranked or more blessed with some pretrib crown is twisted preaching.

There are no more eternal blessings in addition to being a co heir with Jesus in his Fathers Kingdom. The twisting of scripture to preach crowns for some saved and no crowns for others means YOUR belief in pretrib means you get blessed more or differently than others who have reached Salvation.

That belief that somehow your Beliefs (works) bring you additional eternal status or things beyond Salvation is pure falsehood and is completely evil.

Either one is saved or one is OUT, and the Gospel is 100% about the Salvation of mankind, indiviually and collectively. The idea you are more blessed in the Kingdom because you believe in pretribulation smacks of idolitry of a doctrine, and that you are special and will be rewarded beyond Salvation because of your blief in that idol doctrine.

The entire concept is trash.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29604085


And the only strawman (nice of you to use mans logic to defile the Gospel) is that only pre tribbers "look forward" to the second Advent of the Savior and will be more bless in Heaven for their ACTS in looking forward and preaching Idol status to "pre tribulation" pontification (it is not doctrine).

Pure arrogant idolority to a belief that is not vital or even relevant to Salvation on any level. The Jews put Abrahams law above the Living Christ and look where it got them.

You claim you are blessed beyond Salvation with a Crown because of you preach and believe in pretrib. The Jews preached and beleived they were blessed beyond Salvation and they got to say who was their Messiah, they missed the forrest for the trees in their clinging to a concept and it would seem you claim a sliver in the eye of a non-pretribber while pre trib belief becomes a beam in your own.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29604085

A straw man argument is a construct of man. I was just pointing out how fallacious it is. It has nothing to do with the Gospel, and everything to do with false arguments of men.

You seem to be confused. Pretribulationists believe Yahshua & Paul when they said to watch and wait for Yahshua's soon return. That is not a straw man. You are attempting to deflect here I think.

There is a crown waiting for those who love Yahshua's coming, as I've shown. There is no need to deny that further.

Pretribulationism has nothing to do with idolatry or pontification. You are mistaken. It is a part of the Dispensation Theology, and is a belief in the timing of the return of Yahshua for the resurrection & rapture of the Church-Age saints.

No one said Pretribulationism has anything to do with salvation. That is a straw man argument of your creation. There are many doctrines in the bible. Is it idolatrous to defend any or even all of them? No, it is rightly dividing the Word and contending for that part of the faith. If someone attacks 'baptism' and you defend it, does that make you an idolater? No, of course not.

1I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

3For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith. Romans 12:1-3
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 72289392

That's right. We shouldn't think more highly of ourselves. We are all sinners. Some lost, but others saved by grace.

Thank the Lord for His sacrifice and grace for us. We are nothing, and Yahweh is no respecter of men.

Salvation is open to everyone who will repent and have faith in Yahshua and what He did for us.

And rewards and treasures are available in heaven for any believer who lives a faithful Christian life and follows the commandments of Yahshua. If you do good works after salvation, you too will be storing up treasures in heaven. In fact, we are commanded to do so:

"But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:"- Matthew 6:20

Re: 10 More Amazing Proofs For The Pre tribulation Rapture
Foreseeing the heresy of the pre-tribulation rapture doctrine

He gives this warning!!!


Amos 9:10

All the sinners of My people shall die by the sword, which say, The evil shall not overtake nor precede us.

John 17:15 I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.

20 Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on Me through their word;


pre-tribulation rapture doctrine, take us out of the world, to keep us from the evil

His people perish for lack of knowledge


How it will happen: [link to www.godlikeproductions.com]
 Quoting: Ebed~232

If you read the whole chapter 9 of Amos you will clearly see that this Old Testament prophet was referring to Yahweh's(God's) judgment and destruction of a sinful Israel in the Old Testament times. Yahweh was casting judgment on that nation, and was speaking against anyone suggesting that His judgment was not going to affect them. They were defiant, and Yahweh was having none of that. It was not at all about the New Testament Church or the rapture, and suggesting it was is to misinterpret scriptures.

In John 17, Yahshua was praying to His father for the welfare of His disciples; about what happens when we are saved. He was talking about His disciples and their converts. When we are saved, we do not get immediately raptured to heaven. Rather Yahweh has a plan for us in this world, and we are to live it out even though we are not a part of it. Nowhere in this chapter was He praying or talking about the End Times. The End Times discussions were at other times.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 66738521


No ~ The context is the Last Generation and the Hope of Israel

If you read the chapter it is about

The restoration of the Tabernacle of David!!!


Amos 9:10

11 In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old:


Do you know what the Tabernacle of David Represents in this verse?

that at that time was fallen

Do you know?

When YHWH shall build up Zion, He shall Appear in His Glory
Psalms 102:16

The Blessed Hope, the Appearing in Glory

What does it mean, He shall build up Zion

And If you are able to understand, The restoration of the tabernacle of David, and the building up of Zion are the same thing



and the foolish virgins who have a false hope, go buy from them who sell!!!
 Quoting: Ebed~232

Thanks for the correction.

I should then clarify: The first two-thirds of Amos 9 (1-10) talks about the destruction of Israel.

Then the last third of Amos 9 (11-15) speaks of Israel's restoration at least 1,878 or more years later.

And verse 10 which you quoted was talking about the earlier destruction of Israel, not the latter restoration of Israel.

Yahweh was talking about those who attempted to prevent or deny His judgment against Israel. It had nothing to do with condemning future rapture believers. That's a stretch of anyone's imagination.

Gibberish, Nonsense, not knowing the scriptures, you destroy the truth...

What Restoration?

The Apostles after spending 40 days with Yeshua after the resurrection, where He taught them about the Kingdom

We get One question, they asked in that time.

Act 1:6

When they therefore were come together, they asked of Him, saying, Adonai, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?

It hadn't happened, that is Why they Asked.

So

nothing has been imagined except your answer, and seeing that the majority hold to the doctrine that they will be taken before the wicked in amerika... He warns what will happen to them...they lack faith,

Which is another plain contradiction to the teachings of YESHUA, at the end of the age, that the tares will be taken first, before the wheat are gathered into His barn.

There is no stretch, this is a Warning...

There is One Second Coming...And it is After the Great Tribulation

Thankfully, HE did warn, for those who have ears to hear


Heb 9:28

So Messiah was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for Him shall He appear the second time without sin unto salvation.

I thought it novel too when I first discovered it. But yet it is there in the bible. And it has nothing to do with our salvation.

Apparently, works do matter when it comes to receiving rewards at the Bema Judgment Seat of Christ in heaven. It will determine what rewards you get.

I don't know about any curve. We will not keep the crowns, but instead will give them to our Savior Yahshua. Only He is worthy of any crowns.

I don't see anyone being any more, or any less saved than any others in heaven.

Yahshua has commanded us to do good works in His name. We are to love one another, feed the hungry, help the poor & widows & orphans, etc. It seems faithful service to Him will be rewarded in heaven. Remember the parable of the talents?

[link to biblehub.com]
[link to www.gotquestions.org]

The master went away to a far off land for awhile and left money to his servants to invest for him. And when he returned he rewarded those servants who had done good works for him while he was away. The good servants were rewarded according to their good works.

As it was in the days of Noah

The wicked were removed, and Noah remained on the earth

As it was during the days of Lot

He Escaped Judgment, and the wicked were destroyed

As Written

Proverbs 10:30

The righteous shall never be removed: but the wicked shall not inhabit the earth.

We who are alive and remain, will be changed when He returns, caught up to meet Him, and His feet will set upon the Mount of Olives, We will not be removed.

the one taken, is taken to destruction.

The one left behind, Is Righteous, was not removed


Mat 13:41

The Son of man shall send forth His angels, and they shall gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;

Re: 10 More Amazing Proofs For The Pre tribulation Rapture
Matthew 24:29-31 is the hands down favorite passage of Pretrib Rapture deniers, yet contained in those passages is the very proof that the Rapture of the Church and the Second Coming are two separate events. Matthew paints a picture of stark terror and physical judgments falling upon the Earth, and then people shall see the 'Son of man' coming down from Heaven. Paul on the other hand, talks about none of these things being connected with the Rapture of the Church. Furthermore, Paul says in the Rapture that Jesus comes for us personally and pulls us up into the clouds with Him, but Matthew says Jesus sends His angels for His elect at the Second Coming.

 Quoting: Mrdlaw4JC


Rapture=144,000 which are the church of Philadelphia grafted into Israel (Romans 11, Galatians 2+3) that doesn't mean they're all "Christians" just those that are acting according to the church of Philadelphia and have the GOLD seal of the living GOD (Holy Spirit GOLD).

This "pre-tribulation" actually relates to whoever the "angel from the east" is; the baptism of Christ (fiery trial) is a process like in JOB. The 7 seals are the seven troubles/calamities with the Holy Spirit (Job 5:19). The mount sion in Revelation is in the kingdom of Heaven; not on earth.

Christ coming to get you means something else, that's with the Holy Spirit inside of you. He drags you back to heaven when a certain number has been met (i.e. 144,000 as per revelation). This is why you don't wait around for Jesus to come and save you in the flesh, because it requires work on your part with the Holy Spirit. The judgment on earth of the one like like a son of man is that angel from the east and the 144,000 with Christ inside them. People have to understand what John 17 means regarding oneness; it is Christ but it won't look like the image you have of him (actually Jesus probably didn't look like that image to begin with).

I do.

What I fail to see is what difference it makes to my "station" in the Kingdom of His Father.

I also fail to see how people who do not accept pre-tribulation rapture are somehow deceived or lessor in the Fathers eyes.

I also fail to see how this entire "I get more blessings in the Kingdom because of all these goods works" fits.

It reeks of indulgences where people who are so good have so much righteousness, they not only get to dictate what doctrines are more important than others, they can judge others for not believing the same things they believe.

The Saints have always suffered at the hands of those who would come against them. It has always been that way, yet, now you tell me that before we are tested just as others have been tested, we will be swept away in the clouds so we escape the test of our faith?

How is the tribulation too much of a test for us?

How is it any worse than being fed to lions, dipped in wax and burned alive or thousands of other fates of those who came before?

But YOU claim because of your belief in the pre trib, you will get to escape the test AND be rewarded for your belief while others will tested and then be saved?

Come on, that does not make any sense at all. That is simply not justice nor mercy.

God let others who believed be tortured and tormented in unspeakable ways, but because you are pretribber, you get a pass AND more rewards in Heaven?

Eze 34:12

As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered; so will I seek out My sheep, and will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.


Dan 12:1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.

Jer 30:7 Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob's trouble, but he shall be saved out of it.

Exodus 19:4 Ye have seen what I did unto the egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles' wings, and brought you unto Myself.

Revelation 12:14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.


Ezekiel 20:35 And I will bring you into the wilderness of the people, and there will I plead with you Face to face.


Luke 21:36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man

Ecc 3:15 That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and GOD requireth that which is past.

Isaiah 4:5 And YAHUWAH will create upon every dwelling place of Mount Zion, and upon her assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day, and the shining of a flaming fire by night: for upon all the glory shall be a Chuppah

Mic 7:15 According to the days of thy coming out of the land of egypt I will show unto him marvellous things.


Jer 23:7 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith YHWH, that they shall no more say, YHWH liveth, which brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;


8 But, YHWH liveth, which brought up and which led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all countries whither I had driven them; and they shall dwell in their own land.


During the Great Tribulation, Jacobs Trouble, He is delivered

unfortunately for christians that deny their heritage, the Promise of Jacob being delivered is not for them.

Ephesians 2:11-12, Galatians 3:29 ~ Isaiah 41:8

where is that gentile gate into the New Jerusalem? By which the Righteous shall enter the city

There isn't one.

Mat 13:41

The Son of man shall send forth His angels, and they shall gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
 Quoting: Ebed~232

Enoch was a sort of type for the Pre-Trib rapture. He was raptured to heaven, and then the Great Flood came.

Also, Noah and his family were saved up and out of the Great Flood. Yahweh did not make them tread water or hold onto logs for the duration of they Flood. Instead, they were save out of it.

When Lot and most of his family were saved, they were taken out of the city of Sodom before it was destroyed. They were not made to sit there and endure the destruction of their city around them.

If we get raptured at the 2nd Coming, we will be taken away- up into the air to be with our Messiah. Then after that we will return back to earth to be with Him in Jerusalem. So even then we would be taken away, if only temporarily.

But we need to take a look at Proverbs 10:30 more closely:

"The righteous shall never be removed: but the wicked shall not inhabit the earth."- Proverbs 10:30

This word "removed" needs some further examination. The original Hebrew phonetic here is 'mot.' The KJV Strong's Hebrew number is 4131. [link to biblehub.com] And it means "to totter, shake, slip." And if you look at different English bible translations of this verse and word, you get: "uprooted, disturbed, moved, shaken, & overthrown." You see, it does not mean a physical moving away, such as in a rapture. It means something totally different. So therefore it should not be used to try to deny the rapture.

[link to biblehub.com]

The Old Testament prophets had no direct knowledge of the rapture anyway since the Church was a mystery to them that was not revealed until Yahshua came at the First Advent.

"8 Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ; 9 And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: 10 To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, 11 According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord"- Ephesians 3:8-11

"26 that is, the mystery which has been hidden from the past ages and generations, but has now been manifested to His saints, 27 to whom God willed to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory."- Colossians 1:26-27

Matthew 13:41 speaks of the Wheat & Tares judgment. This will indeed happen at the end of the Tribulation. The unbelieving 'weeds' will be burned up by fire in the pit. But the Tribulation Saints that kept the faith until the end will be allowed to live on into the new Millennial Kingdom of Christ.
