Subject: Does this make pretrib rapture unlikely |
Bible Note: Hello Edb, you are right when it comes to the hassle that one derives from a discussion that seems to be somewhat controversial. People don’t want to learn or they won’t leave their minds open to truth; they get so set in their ways that they don’t want to be confused by the facts. I have been a Christian for over 37 years now and one of my main interests in Scripture has been the study of eschatology I try to read everything that I can get my hands on. I have studied the different views concerning the timing of the coming of the Lord and have been an ardent student of the pre tribulation view but there has always been a lot of loose ends that didn’t quite fit. There is a very old concept that has recently brought back to light by several different people at the same time and several books that use extensive Scripture to prove the facts. One of those sharing this view was a professor of theology at Moody and because he was so adamant about this rediscovered truth he voluntarily left them rather the compromise what had been revealed to him. Another was the director of The Friends of Israel Gospel Ministry; he to stepped down rather then denounce what had been revealed to him concerning the rapture of the Church and he was the one who established that the standard position for the mission would be the pre tribulation position. I think you are right about what you have said, as to discussing it on the forum but if you would like to examine the information more thoroughly look up my personal profile and drop me a note on my e-mail address. Yours in the Lord, CDBJ |
