1 | Pre-Wrath Rapture? | Bible general Archive 1 | justme | 56054 | ||
Parousia: I would say at this time I am a pre-trib. However my point is that there is now and will always be tribulation. How bad does it have to get? I honestly have no idea. In Africa millions have been killed in tribal wars. People are starving all around the world. Missionaries are killed, more each yearl. Many in our own country are hungry, or can't afford medicine and do die for lack of funds. Our economy is on shackey grounds, we are fighting a war that may have no end in sight. Many men and women who have families make very low wages compaired to 15 years ago. Where we live 8 dollars an hour is a good job! But in facy it is not, it is starvation wages. I am greatful the LORD is my protector, my Father who cares for my needs. I am blessed. Paul said he could be content, with or without his needs being taken care of. No matter what happens it is the Lord who see's over us. I have honestly come to the point where I know no matter what happens I just want to be in the LORD's will. I do not understand why some bare heavier crosses than others. I do not understand why some suffer beyond what I could endure. The American dream is a nightmare. The America I love is needing to restate it's slogans. It should be America Bless God! Not God Bless America. We the church have a lot backwards. But, Parousia, we are so blessed to be in this place. Are we in tribulation? Yes, we are. I think it will get much worse! The "YET" Jesus refered to has "yet" to come. The old Boy Scott moto "Be Prepared" is the best answer I know. agape, justme |

justme: Well friend, as usual, you are right again. No agrument from me although I have found the Pre-Wrath position lines up with the Scripture the way I read it. Sure doesn't make me right but for sure I am sincere about studying the matter. As you noted, Americans really don't know anything about "tribulation" (YET)... I have traveled to many countries that know lots about the subject. I have met Christians brothers and sisters in those places that put me to shame with their faith and acceptance of the "state they are in". I have learned from them... yes, a great deal. I like your outlook brother. Parousia |
