Bible Note: Thanks Mel . . . I will ponder these things which you have written. Yes, I do believe in the "rapture" of the Church and my position is "pre wrath" not "pre-trib." You wrote: "God's wrath is limited to the Cup of Anger and Wrath poured out during the Hour of Trial on all the inhabitants of earth and on the wicked gathered to Armageddon." I still am not clear on WHO will be present on the earth during the time of God's wrath. (Who are the inhabitants other than the wicked?) From what you have written, you say that the 144,000 are gathered to heaven, and post-rapture believers will be martyred or killed for their faith and resurrected. (Is this ALL or are will some remain alive?) What happens to any "believers" who remain, are they "gathered" as well? Please show me where you see this. The reason I ask is because of my confusion over Rev 20:8. Who is left on the earth after the wrath of God to be once again deceived? Who returns to reign with Christ? I was always taught that we, the Church would be here, but as I read and study Rev. I am not inclined to agree with this teaching. Correct me if I am wrong. In an earlier post I noted: Since this event (Rev 20:8)follows the thousand year reign of Jesus Christ on the earth, WHO are these "nations?" WHO survived the great wrath of God and the great battle decribed in Rev 19:17-21? WHO has the capacity to choose to rebel against Christ at this point in time? Certainly not the resurrected saints (Rev 20:4-6)! So who is left? Blessings to you and thanks for your time! mommapbs |
