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] |
Bible Question:
Hi Mark, Matthew 24:29-31 clearly states "immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken; And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven;and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory" Matt. 24:29-30. These are the words of Christ that his return is after the tribulation, and since the trumpets with Gods wrath is poured out on the antichrist and those that worshipped him (Rev.14:9-13). again I must ask do you have any scriptures to the confirm what you believe?

Bible Answer: Hi M.Royal I hope you don't mind my asking, but where does it say that the rapture/catching away, has to be the same event, as Christ's coming in judgment? That seems to be a supposition. And I'm kinda wondering if you are going to answer Marks question, you kinda left it laying there? I thought the ball was in your cort. so to speak. I was really trying to follow this discussion but it is getting a little confusing when someone asks for scripture to lend authority to the asking of a question, that he was using scripture to ask! That doesn't really follow a logical line of reasoning. Would you please clear things up for me? Thanks. God bless. John |
