Bible Question (short): Who are the ones taken? |
Question (full): Who are the ones taken? (Question re-worded) Read Matt 24:36-44. Then answer this question: According to the PLAIN TEXT of this passage, who are the ones taken? I.e., are they unbelievers or believers? For the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah. For as in those days before the flood THEY were eating and drinking, THEY were marrying and giving in marriage, THEY did not understand until the flood came and took THEM all away; Let me ask: In the days of Noah, before the flood: 1) WHO were eating and drinking (business as usual)? unbelievers or believers? 2) WHO were marrying and giving in marriage (business as usual)? unbelievers or believers? 3) WHO did not understand until the flood came? unbelievers or believers? (Is it likely that Noah, who had been warned and instructed of God, is the one who did not understand until the flood came?) 4) In light of your answers (based on the text) to the above 3 questions, WHO was taken away by the flood? unbelievers or believers? |
