Subject: Rapture different from Second Coming? |
Bible Note: Hi, MaTT - thanks for your response (actually, I'm Roaring Lamb - I was replying to justme). Yes, it looks like we are pretty much on the same page. I hope it continues this way. If you follow some of the discussions I will be involved in shortly, you will find that a lot of what I espouse goes against a lot of popular Christian teaching. But you will also find that I believe in SOUND DOCTRINE - which the Bible predicted would be pretty much SCARCE in the last days (2 Timothy 4:3). You'll also find I HAVE NO REGARD FOR ANYONE'S OPINION - NOT EVEN MINE! I'm only interested in what the Bible teaches on any topic. If someone corrects me on a point, I WILL CHANGE MY POSITION. See how many times THAT occurs in this forum! |
