1 | Rapture | 1 Thess 4:17 | grafted in | 216786 | ||
Shalom Makarios, You left out the preterists!! How could you forget them (smiling)??!! They are the ones who believe the rapture took place in 70AD and we are now in the 2009th year of the 1000 year millenial reign. (Yeah, some people really do believe this. I believe they base it on the passage in Mat. 24 where He says "this generation will not pass away before all these things happen...") I, too, am a pre-wrather. The tribulation spoken of in Rev., prior to the pre-wrath rapture, at the 7th or last trumpet, is not the wrath of God taking place, it's the wrath of hasatan against God's people. After the bride is taken out of the way, the wrath of God against wickedness and evildoers is let loose. (There may be some that come to faith within this period but they will have to die during it or survive it, though I've heard some people teach of a secondary rapture?) Is this how you see the pre-wrath view? Does your screen name, Makarios, mean blessing in Greek? |

2 | Rapture | 1 Thess 4:17 | Makarios | 216797 | ||
Greetings Grafted In! Yes, my screen name means 'blessed' in Greek. Matthew 24:34 is a very interesting verse! To answer your question about Pre-Wrath, pages 430-431 of "The Sign" (1) state that according to Isaiah 20:24-25 and 56:6-8, there may be a few Gentile children of God that survive the Battle of Armageddon, and these will be brought to Mount Zion (Micah 7:10,16-17; Isaiah 66:16,18) during the 45 day Restoration Period to stand before Christ at the "Sheep and Goat Judgment" that will occur on the first day of the Millennium. Blessings to you, Makarios (1) "The Sign", pgs 430-431, copyright 1992 Robert Van Kampen, Crossway Books |
