Bible Question: Disprove the rapture theory please! Can someone show me where I can prove that we will not fly up into the sky ? I would like to know where I can find the scripture that says we will be brought before satan and we need to let the holy spirit speak through us. |
Bible Answer: It has been said: "Some people believe the above verse tells that God is not happy with those who teach people to fly to save their souls and that He will take back the souls. Unfortunately some will fly by their own choice but rest assured they will be taken back as God states in the above verse." Ezekiel 13:20 doesn't have a thing in the world to do with the rapture, endtime prophecy, aviation, space flight, Superman or any such thing. Ezekiel 13:20 Amplified. Therefore thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against your pillows and charms and veils with which you snare human lives like birds, and I will tear them from your arms and will let the lives you hunt go free, the lives you are snaring like birds. NLT. And so the Sovereign LORD says: I am against all your magic charms, which you use to ensnare my people like birds. I will tear them from your arms, setting my people free like birds set free from a cage." GOD'S WORD Translation. "'This is what the Almighty LORD says: I'm against the magic charms that you use to trap people like birds. I will tear them from your arms and free the people that you have trapped. Here is the verse IN CONTEXT from the Amplified Bible. Ezekiel 13:17-23 17And you, son of man, set your face against the daughters of your people who prophesy out of [the wishful thinking of] their own minds and hearts; prophesy against them, 18And say, Thus says the Lord God: Woe to the women who sew pillows to all armholes and fasten magic, protective charms to all wrists, and deceptive veils upon the heads of those of every stature to hunt and capture human lives! Will you snare the lives of My people to keep your own selves alive? 19You have profaned Me among My people [in payment] for handfuls of barley and for pieces of bread, slaying persons who should not die and giving [a guaranty of] life to those who should not live, by your lying to My people, who give heed to lies. 20Therefore thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against your pillows and charms and veils with which you snare human lives like birds, and I will tear them from your arms and will let the lives you hunt go free, the lives you are snaring like birds. 21Your [deceptive] veils also will I tear and deliver My people out of your hand, and they shall be no more in your hand to be hunted and snared. Then you shall know (understand and realize) that I am the Lord. 22Because with lies you have made the righteous sad and disheartened, whom I have not made sad or disheartened, and because you have encouraged and strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way and be saved [in that you falsely promised him life], 23Therefore you will no more see false visions or practice divinations, and I will deliver My people out of your hand. Then you will know (understand and realize) that I am the Lord. |
