1 | Rapture - Bodies or souls disappear? | Matt 24:27 | BenK | 104311 | ||
Guess I'm not the only dummy around. I also have Van Kampen's writing and was,naturally, pleased to find someone who was understanding the scriptures to say the same thing they were saying to me. I'm 70 years old and, after many years of asking preachers, talk show hosts, and teachers to show me, scripturally, where I was in error, I have pretty much resigned myself to the fact that most hold their eschatological postions based on what they have always heard. I have many times heard Dr. Walter Martin, the former "Bible answer man", try to show folks that Jesus said "After the tribulation", however, since Dr. Martin died, the Bible answer man is now teaching pre-trib. Oh, well, I know that WHEN Christ returns is not as important as the fact that He will, in God's time. It does bother me though just to think about how confused the church will be when they find themselves in the great tribulation period and won't know what is next. Thanks again for your response, Ben |

2 | Rapture - Bodies or souls disappear? | Matt 24:27 | kalos | 104312 | ||
Ben: I hold to the Pre-Wrath Rapture. There are too many questions that the pre-tribbers just can't answer. Taking the Bible at face value, I am fully persuaded that the Pre-Wrath position is the clear teaching of the Bible. Jesus' main theme in Matthew 24 is BE READY. Those who think we will all fly away and not be around for the seven-year tribulation period will not be ready. --kalos |

Kalos, I agree with you, and thanks for your comments. I just think it sad that so many are teaching for doctrine something that cannot be found in scripture, and some are even making millions of dollars selling a fantasy which even the church gobbles up as truth. One highly reputable, syndicated radio preacher says, when asked where the pre-trib rapture can be found, that it is in the white space between the end of chapter 3 and the beginning of chapter 4 of Revelation. I just don't believe God works that way. Thanks again, Ben |
