AMPLIFIED 2015 | 2 Thessalonians 2:3 Let no one in any way deceive or entrap you, for that day will not come unless the apostasy comes first [that is, the great rebellion, the abandonment of the faith by professed Christians], and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction [the Antichrist, the one who is destined to be destroyed], [Dan 7:25; 8:25; 1 Tim 4:1] |
Subject: Rapture? Pre? Mid? Post? |
Bible Note: Regarding the persection of the tribulation saints, just because that will take place at the same time as God unleashes His wrath upon the earth does not mean that it is God doing it. this too is faulty logic. It would be the same thing as saying that my sin today is God's fault. Satan will persecute the remnent of Isreal, and all who do not take the mark, and that will be his sin. It does not became God's doing because God is working at the same time. The truth is that God's wrath will be upon this earth from the beginning of the seventieth week, and so the "pre-trib" view is actually the only true "pre-wrath" rapture. |
