Hab 3:5 If you are still here after the Rapture then it was because you ignored all the warnings, and where not right with the Lord when it happened. You may not even get the chance to become a Tribulation Saint because you could be wiped out in an instant by a nuclear bomb or some other means. And that would be it as far as you are concerned.
There are many people with a blasé attitude why have latched onto all kinds of lying doctrines, because they want to have their cake and eat it. And that is something that is going to work against you.

Re: Why being a Tribulation Saint is a dangerous second best choice to being Raptured.
japand2 Many people seek for other explanations, no matter how implausible, to explain away the fact that we are in the early stages of Judgement, because that would mean acknowledging that Jesus Christ and God exist. I personally can testify that Zec 2:13 Be silent, O all flesh, before the LORD: for he is raised up out of his holy habitation. is true. About two weeks ago I took about a 100 mile round taxi trip to greater Manchester (a city of about 3 million) during a busy time of the day. On the way there we did not stop once for a traffic light or for any other reason but to for stop signs.

No doubt many of you will chime in to say that I'm being silly because the UK was on Corvid 19 lockdown etc, etc. Never the less this passage was written in the Old Testament nearly 4,000 years ago and it has come to pass. Not one of us can even guarantee their next breath, so those of you who continue on in your wilful ignorance do so at peril of losing your soul.

This is the problem with "Free Will" believers. They think they saved themselves by "accepting" the Lord into their filthy hearts by their own choice. They believe that, as spiritually dead people, they brought themselves to life by saying a sinner's prayer.

Many of them are modern-day Pharisees who vehemently deny that they are Pharisees. More than likely, most will find themselves turning away from Jesus when they find themselves standing in the shoes of tribulation saints, and they'll want out real quick.

Salvation Prayer:





Just read this prayer below with sincerity of heart in order to accept Jesus Christ into your heart and receive his FREE GIFT of Eternal Salvation:

By faith I gratefully receive your gift of salvation. I am ready to trust you as my Lord and Savior. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for coming to earth. I believe you are the Son of God who died on the cross for my sins and rose from the dead on the third day. Thank you for bearing my sins and giving me the gift of eternal life. I believe your words are true. Come into my heart, Lord Jesus, and be my Savior. Amen.

Re: Why being a Tribulation Saint is a dangerous second best choice to being Raptured.
Judethz answer me this if you will.

A rapture doesn't make sense, if the result of standing before God is the same for both groups.

Everyone will stand before the Judgment seat, and I mean everyone.

God doesn't show favoritism. Everyone has the same parameters to overcome and in no way will the living proceed the dead.


How do you rationalize a rapture if the dead are raised first?

The rapture that you want to happen, means you would be dead for the final three/half year period of Tribulation.

You would then be resurrected at the last Trump along with everyone else who died.

How else would the living follow after?

If the dead precede the living, and that event occurs at the last Trump, then it makes more sense that Gods people will live through the tribulation.

Scripture is clear, God calls the dead to Him FIRST. God is NOT going to rapture, you midway, kill you and make you wait three and a half years, which is what a rapture would require to fit with scripture.

The Return of the Lord
1 Thessalonians 4
13But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. 14For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. 15For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. 16For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 18Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

Rapture is an overwhelming feeling of happiness. There is spiritual rapture that also brings understanding. It is occurring already. Some have experienced it on this site. Many are still "asleep," though.

Everyone will stand before the Judgment seat, and I mean everyone.
 Quoting: Osmium76


ruthnaomi No they will not, the Judgement seat is for others. Those who have died in the Lord or who have been Raptured will appear before Jesus Christ at the Bema Seat.

What is the ‘Bema’ Seat of Christ?

The Judgement Seat of Christ
The ‘Bema’ seat of Christ occurs at the time immediately following the translation of the Church (“Rapture”–See 1 Thessalonians 4:14-17 and 1 Corinthians 15:51-52). The place of the Bema seat of Christ is placed in the sphere of the heavenlies.
There are two primary passages for interpreting the Judgement Seat of Christ: Romans 14:10 and 2 Corinthians 5:10. The two Greek terms translated Judgement Seat in these passages are: bemati and bematos. In THAYER’S GREEK-ENGLISH LEXICON OF THE NEW TESTAMENT, we find the following definition for Bema: (1) a step, pace, (2) a raised place mounted by steps; a platform, tribune: used of the official seat of a judge (see Matthew 27:19; John 19:13; Acts 18:12,16); of the Judgement Seat of Christ (Romans 14:10, 2 Corinthians 5:10).

In the two passages (Romans 14 and 2 Corinthians 5) the term “judgement seat” Is used of the Divine tribunal before which all believers are hereafter to stand. In Romans 14:10, it is called “The judgement-seat of Christ,” A.V. (R.V., “of God”), according to the most authentic manuscripts. The same tribunal is called “the judgement-seat of Christ” in 2 Corinthians 5:10, to whom the Father has given all judgement (see John 5:22,27). At this ‘bema’ believers are to be made manifest, that each may “receive the things done in (or through) the body,” according to what he has done, “whether it be good or bad.” There they will receive rewards for their faithfulness to the Lord. For all that has been contrary in their lives to His will they will suffer loss of rewards (1 Corinthians 3:15). (VINE’S EXPOSITORY DICTIONARY OF NEW TESTAMENT WORDS)
From 2 Corinthians 5:10, John 5:22 and Romans 14:10, we are told that the judge at the ‘Bema’ seat of Christ is Christ Himself. One day all the dead will be raised to stand before Christ (the saved through the rapture to the ‘Bema’ Judgment, and the unsaved through the final resurrection to the Great White Throne Judgment (see John 5:29; Romans 14:10-12; Revelation 20:11-151).

The Judgement of Believers
Only those who are born again believers will stand before the ‘Bema’ seat of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:1-19). The purpose of the ‘Bema’ seat is to make a public manifestation of the essential character and motives of the individual Christian. The believer’s works are brought into judgment, called “the things done in his body” (2 Corinthians 5:10), in order that it may be determined whether they are good or bad. This judgment is not to determine what is ethically good or evil, but rather that which is acceptable and that which is worthless/unprofitable to the work of Christ.
“Every man’s work shall be made manifest” (1 Corinthians 3:13-15). While it is possible to hide the true quality of one’s service for Christ in this life, there will be a tie of reckoning for the Christian. There is coming a time when all will be openly displayed for what one’s true motives were.
Results of Christ’s Judgement
The results of the judgment are two-fold: (1) a reward received or (2) a reward lost. If a man’s work remains undamaged by the fire, accordingly, he receives rewards (Greek misthos) … If a man’s work does not endure, and is consumed in the fire, then he shall “suffer loss.” Everything he has devoted himself to in this life (those things done in his own strength and for his own glory) shall be burnt up suddenly. “But he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire” (1 Corinthians 3:15). It is important to notice that such a man does not suffer the loss of his salvation, but the loss of reward. The stress is not on a man’s relationship to Christ, but upon service to Christ. (Liberty Bible Commentary, Volume II, pp. 421-422.)

If a man’s work remains undamaged by the fire, accordingly, he receives rewards (Greek misthos) … If a man’s work does not endure, and is consumed in the fire, then he shall “suffer loss.” Everything he has devoted himself to in this life (those things done in his own strength and for his own glory) shall be burnt up suddenly. “But he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire” (1 Corinthians 3:15). It is important to notice that such a man does not suffer the loss of his salvation, but the loss of reward. The stress is not on a man’s relationship to Christ, but upon service to Christ. (Liberty Bible Commentary, Volume II, pp. 421-422.)

I do know we are worlds apart. I have a go at you and would be sort of sharp as you seem to dismiss murder of children.

That said tho and being apart, could you explain this.

No they will not, the Judgement seat is for others.

Just who are those "others".

Honest thought I assure you...
