5 Reasons the Pre-Tribulational Rapture Theory is Unbiblical 

Preterism? False teaching.

​@@elmac1085absolutely... read my comment and respond please

@@elmac1085 First John 5:13. These things have I written unto you that BELEIVE on the name of the Son of God, that ye may KNOW YE HAVE ETERNAL LIFE. Gods word. Romans 6;23. For the penalty for sin is death, BUT, (the good news) The GIFT of God is ETERNAL LIFE, through Jesus Christ our Lord. The GIFT of God is eternal life. Those who have received the free gift, HAVE ETERNAL LIFE. God cannot lie. John 6:47. John 3:18. Jesus said it, we believe it, and that settles it. John 3:16. First John 2:2. Romans 1:16. I am a bible believer. Not a Calvinist or an Arminian. I do not see either one of those in my bible. John 3:16 refutes both of them. First John 2:2 refutes both of them. John 5:24 refutes all false gospels. The gospel Paul preached and the gospel that Jesus preached. First Corinthians 15:1-4. That Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures, that HE was buried and rose again on the third day, for our JUSTIFICATION. Romans 3:26-28. Romans 4:5-8. Jesus said it, we believe it, and that settles it. John 3:18. Believers are no longer condemned to hell, but UNBELIEVERS are condemned already because they have not believed on the name of the Son of God. John 10:28-29. Hebrews 13:5. He will never leave us or forsake us. He will never cast us out. John 6:37.

Ephesians 1:13-14. Our guarantee of eternal life. Ephesians 4:30. And Grieve not the Holy Spirit in whom ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. The rapture of the church. I can not go to hell because he already paid for all my sins. I have no sins to pay for. And the GIFT of God is ETERNAL LIFE. We cannot lose eternal life, because it is eternal life. If we could lose it, it would not be eternal. If we could earn it, then Jesus died in vain. Galatians 2:21.

Hank I love your teaching on the false doctrine of the pre-trib rapture first taught by John Nelson Darby not all that long ago in the 1830s! People need to study church history to find out the truth and cross reference it with Biblical truth like you do and many of us do who study scripture. I totally agree with you on so much stuff the mainline churches have been teaching in error for decades. God bless you Hank and thank you for what you do for the Gospel. ✝️🙏✝️🙏

It mostly doesn't matter. But go ahead and tell someone who believes in pretrib rapture and see how nasty they get with you. Not all, but a good deal of these people have already fallen away.

It DOES matter in the sense that if you believe you're going to be captured and it never happens, you're going to be very disillusioned and lose faith because you have been taught wrong information! The "great falling away"! Pre-trib, mid-trib, or post-trib - they're all wrong. There is no SECRET rapture and then Christ coming back a third time! Read your Bibles!!

Hank is saying that there is no secret rapture it is more biblically called the Resurrection at Christs coming not a rapture. There is no Bible to support pretrib rapture. This was first started in the in the 1830s. The early church did not teach a rapture before the great tribulation that Jesus speaks of Matthew 24!

It matters in the sense that Christ warned and so did Paul to the church.

There is a pretrib rapture dear believer but not all those that believe in pretrib will go in pretrib.The Philadelphian saints are the church of BROTHERLY LOVE. The bride wants all saints to be harvested with the barley company at pretrib. The bulk of the church will reject the bridal calling. Believers will go to heaven when they are ready to be harvested. The crop must be ready before it can be harvested. Barley and wheat are both grain companies that are both planted at the same time, in the autumn. Barley matures faster than wheat and is harvested in the spring. BARLEY IS THE BRIDE, and she leaves at pretrib. Wheat is harvested in the summer. Wheat is the great multitude church gathered in Rev 7..... THE VIRGINS WITHOUT NUMBER AKA THE INNUMERABLE COMPANY! The final company, caught up at midtrib, before the open door is shut, are the grapes that are gathered at midtrib. The grapes are the 144,000 Jews. The Jews finally believe Christ is their king because they gleaned the truth from the Barley and wheat companies.

Perhaps as they might have been when Enoch was translated before the flood

Bill Altier Enoch? what does that have to do with it?

@@silenceseeker5456 Enoch received (the easy way out) because he did not go through the experience of the great flood where only eight souls were saved by water

The rapture will be at the last trumpet. (like it is written in scriptures below) (before the 7 bowls of the wrath of God) Revelation 10 -7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the MYSTERY of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets. 1 Corinthians 15 -51 Behold, I shew you a MYSTERY; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed -52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, AT THE LAST TRUMP: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 1 Thessalonians 4 -16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a loud command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the TRUMPET of God, and the dead in Christ will be the first to rise -17 After that, we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will always be with the Lord.

@@1516Taylor That was 500 years before the flood. He could also die in that time. A very weak argument and it applies to all Rapture views, because the destruction of the wicked comes at His wrath after the GT at His 2nd coming, not before. Study the Day of the Lord and God's wrath in the Greek,(LITV bible), it will open your eyes.

Hanegraff does not know this or acknowledge this.

​@@granthodges3012 'caught up' from Thessalonians 4.17 does not translate to 'rapture'. To 'rapture' is to break off from something not to get caught up. Different meanings entirely. When you stretch the meaning of 'caught up' to incorporate 'rupture' you risk breaking the semantics involved. Punn intended.

@@oneoctavelow Understanding the Bible begins with the Greek text, in this context, the Greek word harpadzo. In Liddell and Scott, p. 245, the classic Greek Lexicon, the hardback version, which I am lucky to own, on p. 245 begins the long entry on harpadzo. The first three meanings in order are: 1. snatch away, carry off. 2 seize hastily, snatch up. 3. Seize, overpower, over master. The next two entries are variations on No. 3. So the Latin translations used the future passive of the Latin "rapio", to translate harpadzo, which is how it came in to English. The Latin lexical form is "rapiemur", "to seize, snatch, or carry away", pretty much a one to one translation. This is how "the Rapture" came into our English speech about I Thessalonians 4:17. This is first year Greek lore. So I am certain you didn't look this up in a Greek lexicon. And you certainly are totally wrong as is whoever told you your story above. So . . . . your punishment . . . :) . . . is . . . Read Romans 11 aloud slowly and each time you come to the word Israel or a pronoun that refers back to Israel, you must say "The Church" with gusto! Listen carefully to yourself and how what you are reading doesn't make any sense, and realize that All the nation of Israel WILL BE SAVED! Isn't that wonderful?!

@@oneoctavelow ignore the word "rapture" and study the word "Harpadzo" . I love Andy Woods sermon series on "The Rapture" aka Harpadzo! I used to be a post trib guy, so glad I got the wake up call.

​​@@granthodges3012it is hard for me to take people like you seriously on the topic of religion. I fear that the gnostics were closer to the truth than are today's bible literalists. It is in fact pitiful to see grown men be so wrong about understanding God. Bible literalism is the path to perdition and for most of you it's already too late.

Name the scholars, pastors, teachers, etc. that taught or preached on the (7) year pre-tribulation rapture before 1830... I have searched for over (3) years and can find NONE. John Wycliffe, Martin Luther, and Sir Issac Newton did NOT believe in this theory.

Amen. We are NOT appointed to WRATH at all. We are told to WATCH. We certainly don’t have to watch for the Second Coming. How silly. That day is easy to figure out. The only reason to watch is because it’s a PRETRIBULATION RAPTURE. I CANNOT WAIT!

Amen! ❤

Preterist are just as much dangerous as pre tribulation rapture and they are false. Pre millennium post tribulation rapture is historically and biblically true.

​@@bcsprideLuk 21:36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

🙏 But we still keep the door open and find ways to encourage them to come along side the teachings of Jesus and the Scriptures.

So true! I just had my mom chase me fists high because I told her there will be no rapture only a 2nd coming

@@Brenda-ny1gw The “catching up” harpazo is the rapture no matter when it occurs. There is always a rapture of the saints.

So if the second coming was in 70 AD, then that means there is no more salvation, no more Gospel, no more elect, and no resurrection. It means there is no more Christianity. These are the consequences of full preterism.

@@70AD-user45 no one typed or said the 2ndcoming was in 70 a.d.,it was the 3.5 year tribulation Daniel prophesied,,,if revelation was written after 70 a.d.john would have written about it.

@@70AD-user45 70 AD was not the second coming. It was the judgement on "this generation" spoken of in Matthew 24:34. So thankfully we still have Christianity until Jesus returns a 2nd time. whew that was close!

@@70AD-user45 Listen to our Lord Jesus Christ when He says “Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Then will appear in heaven the sign of the Son of Man, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. Matthew 24:29‭-‬30

@@dist221 Are you taking all those verses literally? It's what you call Hebraic apocalyptic language which was written using hyperbolic (exaggerated) language. You need to find out what those verses SYMBOLISE? For example, what does it mean that the Son of Man will "come on the clouds of heaven"? Obviously this is symbolic language.

Yep…that quiet voice tells me there is no pre trib rapture.

Isaiah 26:19-21

@@tarzanvineswinger7405 This passage is speaking about Israel, not the Church. "Thou has increased the nation, oh Lord...Lord in trouble have they visited Thee, they poured out a prayer when Thy chastening was upon them...Like a woman they cried out in their pangs...we have been with child. but we have not wrought deliverance on the earth...thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body they will arise...Come my people, enter into thy chambers and shut the doors about thee, hide thyselves as it were for a little moment...for behold the Lord comes out of His place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity." Isaiah is prayer this pray about his people Israel, not about the Church. God will hide Israel in the time of trouble.

Read and study the word of GOD AND be like the Berren in the book of acts who searched the scriptures daily to see if these things Paul spoke were true God's word is true your responsible for checking it out please do

​@@brettkrueger9464 I've studied the Bible daily for over thirty years and found that these things are not true. There is no hint whatsoever of any of the variations of Dispensationalism as they are taught. There are of course two dispensations recorded in the Bible, the old and the new. The word "dispensation" comes from the Greek "oikonomos" which means, literally, "law of the house." In the beginning, God created man in His image and dwelt with him in Eden. Under the Old Covenant, God's "house" became the Temple. It was were His glory dwelt, for a time. Moses was the steward of that House and "dispensed" the law to the people. In the fulness of time, Jesus became the true Temple, the dwelling place of God. It was in Him that the glory and the fulness of the godhead dwelt. After Jesus death and resurrection, He ascended to the right hand of the Father. From there He sent His Spirit, and those who believe become Living Stones in the Temple of Christ's Body, filled with all the fulness of God, and changed from glory to glory into His image. Paul is the steward of God's New Testament House, dispensing the Law of Christ to God's people. It's as simple as that. The Church is pictured as a holy City, a Bride made up of walls with the names of the twelve apostles, and gates with the names of the twelve tribes. Apart from the Church, Israel after the flesh has no inheritance. God does not have two peoples, an earthly Israel and a heavenly Church. God and the Lamb dwell in the midst of the Holy City, the HEAVENLY Jerusalem, a people crucified with Christ and raised up, seated with Him in heavenly places. God's Kingdom is not of this world. If it were, His servants would fight to bring it to pass. The writer of Hebrews tells us, "...You have come to Mount Zion...the church of the Firstborn whose names are written in heaven..." Read the rest of Paul and you will find that God's ETERNAL PURPOSE from the foundation of the world is to bring all things in heaven and earth and under the earth, together IN CHRIST. It is not to separate the earthly and the heavenly as Dispensationalist claim. The Church is the fulfillment, or culmination of the ages (I Corinthians 10), the fulfillment of all the types and shadows of the Old Testament, for "the Testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy." I grew up a Dispensationalist, believing in a Pretrib rapture. I had all the books and DVDs and tapes and charts and understood it all. I listened to all of the TV preachers, Lindsey, Stone, VanImpe, Walvoord, etc. Then I began studying the Bible and found none of these things they taught. In Dispensationalism, passages as wrested out of context, words and terms and definition are conflated, a priori assumptions are made and the literal hermeneutic that Dispensationalists claim to use consistently, is only used when a passage seems to support their theory. Those that contradict their theory are conveniently place in the "for Israel" category. Great tribulation becomes the wrath of God, even though it is the antichrist who perpetuates this great tribulation after the placing of the abomination. John is said to represent the Church in Revelation 4 when he is purported to be raptured, but then for some unknown reason, when he is taken into the wilderness he ceases to be the Church. Paul, quoting Isaiah, tells us that "though they be like the sands of the seashore, only a remnant will be saved. Later He tells us that "in this manner, all Israel will be saved." Logic tells of that "all Israel" and the "remnant" must be describing the same group of people. He also tells us that that remnant was being saved in His day, just as the remnant was being saved in Elijah's day. And that remnant will continue to be saved until the fullness of the Gentile is come into that remnant of Israel, the Olive Tree. (The implication of God's people being an Olive Tree is that they are filled with olive oil, a symbol of the Holy Spirit.) Under the Old Covenant, God's chosen people consisted of an earthly kingdom. Under the New Covenant, His people consist of a remnant of faith OUT OF the earthly nation, NOT the entire nation. The Kingdom was taken away from Israel a given to a people (the remnant of Israel) who would bear the fruit of the Kingdom. Under the Law, there is no fruit, for the Law brings wrath, and a curse. With the coming of the Spirit, a believing remnant of Israel was born again and became fruitful. It is this faithful and fruitful Israel that Gentiles are grafted into, and those unbelieving branches of Israel that were broken off because of unbelief, in order to be saved, can only be saved by receiving the Spirit through faith. Of course, this Spirit is the same Spirit that Dispensationalist say is removed with the Church at the rapture. And somehow, void of the Spirit, 144,000 Jewish "evangelists?" (something never indicated in the text) will bear the fruit of salvation, bringing a multitude into the Kingdom (a different Kingdom that the one Christ rules over, which is not of this world.) Anyway, Dispensationalism is a complex web of deceit and sleight of hand, and that is why it is so hard to disprove. It takes years of study to unravel the complex web of lies.

I agree. I recently heard a quote from Corrie Ten Boom where she talks about the same thing!!

I ALSO AGREE. WE ARE SUCH GOOD PEOPLE? I BELIEVED BECAUSE I WAS TAUGHT ... NOT ANYMORE.

Acts 14:22 King James Version 22 Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much TRIBULATION enter into the kingdom of God Wake up!

@cesar Can you expand on your interpretation there? Do you think that verse is a rapture proof?

@@samanthagirikhanov2796 that verse is proof that there is NO such thing as a pre-trib rapture. Think about this, all Christ disciples went through tribulation. The apostles went through tribulation. And even Christ himself did. So are we greater than the master? NO! Those that are alive will go through much tribulation before the return of Christ Yashaya. I actually had to go back and read your original post again, I was thinking you believed in the rapture theory. But you're right it's a very American thing. So many people will be shocked and turn away from God once they find out the rapture is just one big lie!

Read the Orthodox Study Bible & read the Patristic Church fathers. There have been more than 10,00 Protestant Church founders who each believed the Holy Spirit was guiding them in their unique idiosyncretic interpretations. Obviously, not all were correctly guided in their interpretations. Many suffered and many continue to suffer from what is called Prelest (spiritual self-delusion). E.g., "I know what this says after 2000 years, I have the insight, I know what this means, I am special, everyone else has been doing things wrong!" The work has already been done for us. We have the Church, thanks be to God.

I keep hearing "let the holy spirit guide you" . Judging from the 45000 Christian denominations in the world it seems to me that very few understand what it means.

@@jeffreyromero9169 Yes, millions of Christians with millions of differing opinions and differing conclusions all are led by the Spirit.

@@jeffreyromero9169 It is complicated at times.

@@toddott633 The bible does not contradict itself therefore the spirit of God would not tell one person one thing and another something else. It seems more likely that the reason for so many denominations is human error.

So you are just going to skip verses 3 and 4?

The first chapters of Revelation exhort the churches to overcome. How did Jesus overcome? By submitting to death. Therefore God exalted Him and gave Him the Name that is above every other name. Pretribbers believer they will be exalted without even having to overcome anything. But what are those things that the Spirit is urging the churches to overcome? The very things that are revealed in the rest of Revelation. The NT tells us to consider it pure joy when we face trials of many kinds, knowing that the testing of our faith develops perseverance, and perseverance makes us mature and perfects our faith. Paul urged us to rejoice in suffering and to be patient in tribulation, and he longed to fill up in his flesh the sufferings of Christ, being made like Him in His death, so as to somehow attain to the resurrection of the dead. We are told over and over against to watch and pray. Pretribbers think this means to watch for the rapture. But that is not the meaning. It means to watch, be on guard, be careful, lest we fall into temptation and deception. Jesus, during His hour of temptation in Gethsemane, urged the disciple to watch and pray. When they had fallen asleep, He asked, Could you not watch for one hour? This is a type of the hour of temptation in Revelation. Like Peter, many will be caught unaware and will fall away like the seed sown on throne ground. When trouble and persecution come, because they have no root, they will quickly wither. Unfortunately, they will not heed any of the warnings because they believe that they are for Israel and not the Church. They have been deceived by the false doctrine called Dispensationalism.

You are correct. But thinking in pre trib will put your guard down and you will stop searching and looking for Yeshua.

Mate, do you have personal relationship with The Lord? When conveying his Rapture Message to Thessalonians, did not Paul the Apostle say, " wesay unto you by the word of The Lord" (1 Thessalonians chapter 4 vs. 13-18). It was The Lord"s Message Paul was delivering to the people of God, NOT his own fanciful fable! How could you and other Saints absorb any nauseatic doubts from boffins like this one on the video? Did not our Lord Yeshua The Messiah warn us as the primary thing, to watch out that no man deceive you? (Matthew 24:4). What more could one say?

The stooge on this video plays false prophet and liar. Sent by the Antichrist and his henchmen, most likely

@@lawrencegarcia1675 That’s an assumption…your assuming that fear of the tribulation is what’s going to keep us following Christ when it’s the fear or reverence for the Lord that will keep us not the fear of a event. In the tribulation there will still be people that will deny Christ so that event cannot be our reason.

Some people don't want to believe the truth, instead they want the escape fantasy! Δόξα στον Θεό

Who are the 24 elders?

@@Alvinthechristian t the twelve patriarchs of Israel and the twelve apostles, who represent the redeemed of both covenants now united in Christ. In Rev. 5:8-9 they do seem to speak on behalf of the redeemed. Also in support for the idea that the 24 elders depict the 12 tribes of Israel and the 12 apostles can be seen by the fact that the names of both groups are displayed on the gates and foundations of the New Jerusalem (Revelation 21:12, 14).

Amen. Great read!🙏👍✝️

No one wants to hear it because all we have is Evangelical "Preachers" bombarding the airwaves and spreading the false teachings of Dispensationalism... In short, they've been brainwashed into believing that that teaching IS THE BIBLE And therefore if you don't agree, you are a sinner and a Non-believer.

Wow. Good point. May God richly bless you brother. Another reason why the rapture is false.

If people insist on setting dates, then yes you are right.

No one knows the two things when will be rapture and when will be jesus christ coming. We all are waiting and believe

Oh then I have good question who are the people that are alive during the millennium reign? Since the church is taken in the end with Christ and the rest die with the antichrist? Right? So who are those people?

Christians are not going to face great tribulation because its Jacobs trouble. Christian have job to do now, and they're being persecuted for this all their life, and moreover, a christian life is a sacrificial life. It's started with Jews its going to end with Jews.

@CeJay - It is really the reverse. The theology of the Left Behind series made it into the church and certain church folks decided to writes stories and make movies based on the Left Behind theology they were taught. See www.equip.org/article/left-behind-from-root-to-ripened-fruit/ and www.equip.org/articles/when-truth-gets-left-behind/

As most movies are but the doctrine of the rapture as you can imagine was not based on a movie but on biblical truth which distinguishes between the church and Israel. The anti-Semitic doctrine of replacement theology which says the church replaced Israel is straight from the pit of hell. Read Romans 9 to 11

@@robbiemcnichol4007 Incorrect. "Replacement theology" is the truth about the church of Christ and has always been preached for the past 2000 years. The racist doctrine that certain people are better than others because of their ancestral sperm donors is of Hell. Also known as Loxism,it crept into the church in the late 19th century.

U mad 😠

Some would rather believe a lie.

Yes, folks check out Lee W. Brainard’s book (Recent Pre-Trib Findings in the Early Church Fathers).

Lee is doing a superb job in finding more ECF's that support the Pretrib doctrine. The 'Bible Answer Man' would do well to actually believe what the Bible states. But I suspect his pride would never allow it.

Wow thank you , I'm suspicious I've never seen this verse

Amen!..Excellent movie. It explains everything about the soon to be rapture. We are looking for our Lord Jesus Christ to rapture the saved believers so He can deal with the jews and show the King of Kings has already come, died on the cross and arose from the dead!.. rapture ready!

that is not how to study the word. By looking back and only taking that as the fullness of the truth I am not saying you do that. i am saying. then we have missed it that turns it into doctrines of man or traditions of man. The Bible explains the bible . if we go back and see Galilean culture, it might explain the text . but if it does not line up with the God-breathed word of God or contradicts the word the word stands true , it has to line up with the word I think you would agree

Before the wrath, is worse than the already existing false gospel of the rapture. Everyone BUT the true truth seekers just want their ears tickled.

​​@@christym2121the producers of the movie used the scriptures, culture and customs to explain beautifully. God is not going to force anyone to adhere to the doctrine of imminence, very often through scripture we are told time and time again "watch and wait," "watch and wait" it's very important. But if God planned for you to go through the tribulation why would he tell you to "watch and wait"? There would be nothing to watch and wait for, nothing you could do anyway, you would just arrive at the culmination point, where all things had run their course. There would be absolutely no need to "watch and wait." He would have said just hang on. He provides a way of escape. Watch and wait, he appears the second time only to those who are watching and waiting. Hebrews 9:28. He also says "pray you are worthy to escape." You can't be worthy of something you don't believe in. Proverbs 22:3 says the prudent man foresees evil and hides himself but the simple pass on and are punished.

Pre wrath is most definitely the biblical view. I’m baffled how this video seemed to be completely debunking by pre trib by saying there is no tribulation at all. There will without a doubt be a final tribulation and the church is here for it. How he can think 70AD can fit anything in revelation is baffling. Jesus said everything in the psalms, prophets and law of Moses MUST be fulfilled. If that’s the case there HAS to be a 3rd temple and there has to be a milleniel reign. And how can he claim nobody repents on his arrival when Joel 2 says that many do and he relents. So many people don’t read the Old Testament.

​@@kingsolomon3175 ​ There simply is no such thing as pre-wrath in the Bible, only 'the wrath of God'. And this wrath of God came upon His Lamb on the cross. IT IS FINISHED! Also there is NO rapture, although the word appears in the Bible. Matt 5:5 The book of Revelation was fulfilled at the cross of Jesus. 70 AD. Also it was written for the people of Israel only, not for us living after the cross. Yes, Jesus did say everything written in the Psalms, prophets & law was appointed on Him, but that was brought into fulfilling at the cross. 'For the Christ is the END of the law. And because of Him, God HAS transferred His perfect righteousness to all who BELIEVE'. Rom 10:4 No, there simply is NO 3rd temple to be built any place on earth, as wé are His holy temple, His sanctuary, His dwelling place! Christ is living in and thru us. Col 1:26-27.. and from out thís holy temple He will soon manifest His final appearances as 1Thes 4:13-18 have it! (we symbolic are the clouds). Repent on His arrival ?? Definitely no, as this is what we are looking to, His final appearances! What is there to repent of if Jesus already has dealt with the sin of the world with the promise never to think of that ever again?? John 1:29 + 3:16,17 Hebr 8:12 + 10:17 No my brother in Christ, we are the righteousness* of God in Christ. (as if we've never sinned). This is the gift of the Father. How precious. 'As He is, so are we in this world'. 1John 4:17 We have been declared holy by His word, and we receive this gracefully and try to live a life that's to the glory of His holy name. Save by Hís grace, His love and His faith.

@@eekay5710 Wait how did the Book of Revelations get fulfilled at the cross when it hadn't been written yet i think you may be confusing Revelations with Daniel.

@@MrWrestlingfan1986 Both Rev and the book of Daniel has been fulfilled at the cross of Jesus. Abraham saw the cross long before Jesus was cruicified.. visions! 'Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day, and he saw it and was glad'. John 8:56 Most Christians believe that the books of Daniel, Rev and Matt 24 is for the future, while it was speaking of the people of Israel. Acts 2:16-21 Peter preached to thém and warned thém with the following words.. 'And with many other words he testified and exhorted them, saying, “Be saved from this perverse generation". Acts 2:40 The cross are the end. We as believers in Jesus Christ has come to the beginning' where their is no end'. The biggest revelation was given to Paul.. Christ within us! Col 1:26-27

​@@eekay5710IF this were true, in what millennia were there no wars nor weapons?

Me too!😀

Those who are "looking for him" will go. Hebrews 9:28 If you're thinking he's not coming back till after the tribulation you're not looking for him. Proverbs 22:3 a prudent man foresees evil and hides himself, the simple pass on and are punished. Luke 21:36 pray you are counted worthy to escape 1 Corinthians 10:13 he provides a way of escape.

woke is evil it places blame or sin on others it is a judgement BE BORN AGAIN and see your own sins !

Rapture explained in 10 minutes at The Lord's Day Ministry.

Tim Lahaye was a masonic Knight of Malta.

*5 REASONS WHY YOU WILL GO TO HELL BECAUSE OF THIS VIDEO:* 1) *Because of your UNBELIEF.* The same sort of UNBELIEF IN GOD"S DELIVERING POWER that saw Israel not allowed into the Promised Land. That you your fate, as Hebrews 3-4 show, as it clearly shows you will be LEFT {OUT} OF THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN FOR THAT SAME {UNBELIEF} IN GOD'S DELIVERING POWER, which is His Rapture. You will share the same fate as Israel. But yours is worst. You will not be left out of a physical land, but spiriutal paradise. .... and don't lie to yourself about being "Christian" or "believing in Jesus" or "covered under His blood." ISRAEL was the "seed of promised" and "believed in Yahweh" more than you, and were "covered under the blood of the Passover Lamb and the sacrifices." Didn't save them.

@@DonCornelius366 you are WAY out of line. Denying Christ is the way to hell. Not believing or disagreeing with a non- fundamental truth. Your salvation can’t be stolen by watching a video. What are you trying to do here?!

Paul in 1 Corinthians 15:52 - In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. We are changed at the LAST TRUMP and where is this found? In REVELATION, the LAST BOOK of the Bible there are 7 trumps and the 7th trump is the LAST ONE and is at the end of the tribulation. there is not a 7th last trump prior to the tribulation.

It wasnt Holy Spirit, but a spirit of deception who stole your hope and in turn you pass along your lack of faith in God's promises of rescuing the righteous before pouring His wrath out on the wicked

@@jbsikes6841 these deceivers never have any content on their channel, nor do they share any Bible scriptures to prove their point. They can not since there are no clear verses that prove the pre trib rapture as being true. it is a lie people. 10 of the 12 apostles died for their faith.

There are many more who have died than 10. This proves nothing. The nature and character of God is to rescue the righteous before pouring out Hos wrath on the ungodly. This has nothing to do with persecution. This is why you dont get it. Also the rapture is not the second coming, which is His glorious appearing when every eye shall see him.

@richardg9734 Well, the Scriptures teach the Christian experiences tribulation, and Hank is affirming the authority of the Bible. 33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33) 5 Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. 3 And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; 4 and perseverance, character; and character, hope. 5 Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us. (Rom. 5:1-4). 2 My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. 4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. (James 1:2) 12 Beloved, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you; 13 but rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christ’s sufferings, that when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy. 14 If you are reproached for the name of Christ, blessed are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. On their part He is blasphemed, but on your part He is glorified. 15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, a thief, an evildoer, or as a busybody in other people’s matters. 16 Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this matter. (1 Peter 4:12-16). 1 Thessalonians 5:8-9 never tells us that we are going to be taken out of the fight before the fight gets going, but we put on the armor and we are not destined to wrath.

I once heard someone say, "Anyone who doesn't think God would let his church suffer the tribulation can't know much about church history."

The marriage supper of the lamb coincides with the second appearance of the Christ to judge the living and the dead. Please see the following article… www.equip.org/articles/apocalypse-when/

@@BibleAnswerMan I did not find the word "marriage" anywhere in the article in the link you supplied. You will find the word "marriage" as well as the phrase "marriage supper of the Lamb" in Revelation chapter 19. Revelation 19:14 _"And the armies WHICH WERE IN HEAVEN followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean."_

The return of Christ to rule the earth occurs as the wrath of God wraps up; that's the bowls, not the GT.

The marriage supper of the Lamb is when animals and birds feast on the corpses of the fallen whom Yeshua has slain. And that is in the Revelation of Jesus Christ.

Yes your on point. Stay steady and steadfast keep your eye on the Target Yeshua

So you forsake to assemble yourself together, because the church doesn’t teach your view of the end times 🤔 guess you really aren’t concerned with what the Bible says anyway 🤷‍♂️

1. The Greek says watch and pray that you may have the strength (to overcome), to escape. There is an escape from and out of trial, God makes a way of escape out of trouble (Ps 124:7+8; 2.Peter 2:9). The context says we will see all these things (Mat 24:15+33). The FIRST RESURRECTION is the first (proton) of two resurrections, the next is 1000 years later, not 1007 (Rev 20:4-6). The First fruits are the first of a harvest of 3 resurrections with a changed body, afterwards ALL believers in Christ, dead and alive at His parousia = advent, that is after the GT (Mat 24:29-31)and includes the Saints of the Tribulation. There is no resurrection nor a coming of Christ before the last 7 years! Not in the bible. Then comes the end, the last resurrection of the just and unjust after the Millennium. You make the First Resurrection to the second, the Greek word protos is always the first of the following ones, it does not go backwards. In Rev 20:4-6 it is the first of the believers in Christ, the First-fruits are OT saints. 4. Your problem with Mat 24:29-31 is you cannot see, that Jesus does not come to the earth and lands on the mount of Olives, He comes in the clouds and gathers His elect, which are NT believers (1.Peter 1:2}, not surviving Jews. The Jews and the nations come to Jerusalem in the Millennium (Jesus sits on the throne, to judge the nations) after His coming in the air. The gathering through the angels is the harvest (Mat 13:30:39+49), not the coming of the Jews to Jerusalem. The gathering of Mat 24:31 is the same as 2. Thess 2:1 unto Him, Who is in the air. The Jews are brought by Gentiles in earthly vessels (Isa 66:20; 14:2; 49:22), God makes a highway for them (Isa 11:15+16).

@@danieltait5115 I made mention of the Greek language not being the language which is the holy scriptures. The language in the book of the LORD is known as Hebrew. All the words in the book of the LORD are pure words and even the one and only word which is known to be Greek (Apollyon) is a pure word. Revelation 9:11 And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon. The Lord declared all 66 books of the LORD in one pure language from the beginning when he pronounced every letter of every pure word with his lips in the Hebrew tongue: Psalm 119:89 For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven. Matthew 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. Isaiah 46:9-10 Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me, [10] Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure: Genesis 11:1 And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. Psalm 33:11 The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations. Acts 26:14-16 And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks. [15] And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest. [16] But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee; (The Jews did not have advantage by the Lord giving his words to the Jew's in an alien Gentile Greek language: Acts 22:1-3 Men, brethren, and fathers, hear ye my defence which I make now unto you. [2] (And when they heard that he spake in the Hebrew tongue to them, they kept the more silence: and he saith,) [3] I am verily a man which am a Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, and taught according to the perfect manner of the law of the fathers, and was zealous toward God, as ye all are this day. Romans 3:1-4 What advantage then hath the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision? [2] Much every way: chiefly, because that unto them were committed the oracles of God. [3] For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect? [4] God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.

Psalm 119:128 Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right; and I hate every false way.

Y’all are fallen away from the truth

@@beanteam2217 Man-made doctrines from the 1800s are not truth.

All churches other than american non-denoms, some baptists and some pentecostals reject pre-trib nonsense. That leaves everything from Orthodoxy, Catholicism, Lutheranism, Anglicanism, Methodism, Episcopalianism wide open...the list goes on. If you are Protestant, basically any church that was founded before the 1800's. Pre-trib beliefs are a minority in Christianity.

Some Brethren Churches, various Reformed Theology Churches. If you're in Colorado, I can make specific recommendations. None of these, while post trib, make this a central doctrine or essential matter, which I believe is correct as well.

Your "proof texts" totally scramble passages as you apply them incorrectly. You use Mat 10:17... in Mat 10 Jesus instructs His disciples to NOT GO into the way of the Gentiles but to go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. And of course, in the passage people have to "endure to the end to be saved." But you would have people believe the church is being discussed. No, as Jesus said, it's the lost sheep of the house of ISRAEL Who will be witnesses to ISRAEL during the great tribulation? The 144,000 JEWS from the 12 tribes of Israel witnessing to other Jews. The tribulation witnesses are comprised of 144,000 male Jewish virgins, NOT the church. You mention Rev 2:10 where the Christians have to deal with tribulation for TEN DAYS. That isn't the great tribulation. You mention other Rev verses - but they are all PRIOR to the beginning of the great tribulation - they have nothing to do with it. In John 4 John is caught up to the third heaven - picturing the rapture of the church - and during the great tribulation in Revelation the church isn't even mentioned. The church is mentioned again in Rev 19 AFTER the great tribulation is over. You mention John 16:2. Christians don't go to synagogues, JEWS go to synagogues. Christians attend local CHURCHES. You use Mat 24 - and here we see again the requirement to endure to the end to be saved - it's not about the church. And in many cases, you cite verses that mention persecution - as if the term was synonymous with the time of great tribulation, which is the time of Jacob's trouble. Persecution =/= great tribulation. Christians have been persecuted since day one and they will continue to be persecuted. This ongoing persecution of individual Christians throughout the centuries has absolutely nothing to do with God pouring out wrath on Israel during the time of Jacob's trouble.

The wrath Paul talks about is not the Bowls. He may not have even known about those. No. He is talking in context about the wrath poured out on the wicked, who experience the Day of the Lord as a thief (see the context of 1 Thess. 5:1-3). They receive sudden destruction at the coming of Christ. See also 2 Thess. 1:6-8, which says the church receives rest from persecutions when Jesus comes and pours out wrath on the wicked.

That' true, The wrath in view is the wrath in hell not on earth.

There is a tribulation orchestrated by Satan thru the antichrist and then the wrath of God to avenge those who were killed or persecuted during the tribulation and other periods in life

Yep, do some digging. I am not pretrib, but they do ask some interesting questions have gotten me to think about things, so I will give them that credit.

Hi Karin, Revelation is written to church not modern Israel, and is this last time we are until Christ returns again in One phase, Visible to all on earth Second Coming.

Go watch Amir Tsfarti. Also great Rapture teaching on Prophecy Watchers, Olive Tree Ministries and Jack Hibbs. Also Andy Woods. The Rapture is true.

Part 1 - I will have to post this in two posts due to length. I apologize for that, but if we want to seek truth, we must be thorough in reconciling all of God's Word. “In religion, as in war and everything else, comfort is the one thing you cannot get by looking for it. If you look for truth, you may find comfort in the end: if you look for comfort you will not get either comfort or truth-only soft soap and wishful thinking to begin with and, in the end, despair.” C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity Truth = facts. The rapture is right where Paul, as a prophet, said it would be. He painted a neon sign and said, “Here it is,” and yet we still miss it. It is at the last trumpet, the seventh trumpet, right where he said it would be. For truth, let’s look at the facts. 1) The seven year period of time is never referred to in Scripture as “the tribulation.” Never. That is an appellation that has been applied by pre-tribbers to equate tribulation with God’s wrath. The Bible refers to it in the Book of Daniel as the 70th week out of 70 weeks. (A week being a seven year period). The only use of the word tribulation to this time is when Christ referred to a period of time during the second half of the 70th week, beginning with the abomination of desolation as the great tribulation. And He also says that this time of great tribulation will be cut short. How is the great tribulation cut short? The wholesale killing of those who will not take the mark will stop before the 1260 days are over, so that some of the elect will remain alive. The reign of the antichrist will continue, however. It will be shown what causes this stopping of killing. As will be seen, this allows for the trumpets to occur during the rest of that time. 2) Tribulation and wrath are not synonymous. Tribulation is the word “thlipsis” and means persecution. We ARE appointed to tribulation. John 16:33, Acts 14:22. The House of God (Christians) must undergo a fiery trial before the appearance of Christ. 1 Peter 4:12-13,17 “Beloved, think it not strange concerning the FIERY TRIAL (“peirasmon” a putting to the proof) which is to TRY YOU (put you to the proof) as though some strange thing happened unto you: But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, WHEN HIS GLORY SHALL BE REVEALED, (at the Second Coming) ye may be glad also with exceeding joy. For the time is come that JUDGMENT MUST BEGIN AT THE HOUSE OF GOD: and if it FIRST BEGIN AT US, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?” God punished and tried Israel for their apostasy. He will also do so to the apostate church. (2Thess. 2:3 there will be a falling away [“apostasia”] from God’s truth) and Dan. 11:35 (purging). God will not persecute His enemies, He will simply destroy them, but His enemies have and always will persecute God’s children. Wrath on the other hand are the words “orge” or “thumos” and mean violent passion or an outburst of passionate wrath. We are not appointed to God’s wrath, but we are to expect Satan’s persecution. God tells us that the saints (in the New Testament, Christians are the saints) will be given over to the beast. Dan. 7:25, Rev. 13:7. Non Christians are not dying during the great trib. They have taken the mark and are fine. This is not God's wrath. The 5th seal is not God’s wrath, for the only ones dying are Christians and the martyrs ask God when He will begin to pour out His vengeance or wrath. He replies that they must wait first for the rest of the Christians who must be martyred as they were. The people on the sea of glass that come out of the great tribulation are those martyrs. Rev. 7:14. It is the worst holocaust in the history of the world. Dan. 12:1. They are the overcomers, those who obey God’s commandments and have the testimony of Jesus, who did not love their lives unto death, that Satan goes after. Rev. 12:11,17. Six out of the seven churches in Revelation are not promised protection. They are told to be overcomers. Only a remnant of the church of Philadephians who have kept the word of God's patience qualify to be protected and eventually raptured. They are kept from the "temptation" which means to be “put to the proof”. God is putting us to the proof by giving us a time of testing for the sake of purging the apostate church. Dan. 11:35. 3) The Day of the Lord is another name for God’s wrath. Joel and Acts tell us that there is a very specific sign that will occur BEFORE the Day of the Lord, or God’s wrath can begin, to warn us it is coming. “And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke: The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, BEFORE that great and notable day of the Lord come.” These very unique signs (both the sun and moon go dark - moon turns red) occur at the same time. This describes a double eclipse which can only occur due to an outside celestial body that has come between the sun and the moon and earth, creating eclipses of both the sun and the moon simultaneously. This sign is said to occur BEFORE the Day of the Lord. It is an omen of the coming wrath of God. How far in advance it comes is not stated in Scripture. 4) This particular sign of the double eclipse is seen in Seal 6 of Revelation. In fact at that time, people recognize and shout for fear that the Day of the Lord is coming, because these signs herald its approach. This is not a statement from heaven that the Day of the Lord has begun, because Christ’s coming initiates the Day of the Lord, and He does not return until the end of the 70th week. It is a warning, though, that God’s wrath is definitely on its way. So God’s wrath does not include the seals. 5) In Matthew 24:29, Christ puts these same celestial signs after the great tribulation is cut short, putting God’s wrath after the great tribulation is over. Hence God’s wrath does not begin until after the great tribulation. 6) We are not appointed to wrath. 1 Thess. 5:9. As God’s wrath cannot begin until after these celestial signs, there is no reason to remove Christians before God’s wrath begins, for we are not exempt from persecution and martyrdom. Therefore we will be here through the great tribulation. Well, those who are alive and remain will be. The rest will be killed. 7) Paul gave the exact sequence of events in 2 Thess. 2:1-4. “Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, (2nd Coming) AND (meaning they are together and in order) by OUR GATHERING TOGETHER UNTO HIM, (resurrection/rapture). [note the chronological order] That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ (also known as the Day of the Lord, but from a Christian’s point of view instead of the wicked’s point of view) is at hand. [This couples all three events together as happening at the same time. Christ’s Second Coming, the rapture followed by the Day of the Lord]. LET NO MAN DECEIVE YOU (pre-tribbers have allowed themselves to be deceived even with this warning and the laying out of the chronology) by any means: for that day (What day? The Day of the Lord wherein Christ returns and resurrects/raptures the saints) shall not come, EXCEPT there come a falling away (apostasia - Gr. Meaning departure from the truth, not departure from a location) FIRST, (before any of the other stuff can happen) and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, (this is the abomination of desolation) shewing himself that he is God.” These verses were telling them that the Day of the Lord wherein Christ returns and raptures them could not be yet, for before that happens, there must be an apostasy in the Church and the antichrist declare himself to be God. This is clear and straightforward. Why do people distort it? 8) Christ must remain in heaven at the right hand of God until His foes are made His footstool. Acts 2:34-35. As long as Satan and the beast reign, His foes are not His footstool. They have 42 months from the abomination. Rev. 13:5. 9) Christ must remain in heaven until the restitution of all things (including the kingdoms of God being given to Christ). Acts. 3:21. As long as Satan is the prince and power of this world, there is no restitution. Satan has until the end of Daniel's 70th week. Christ cannot return until then. 10) Christ destroys the antichrist with the brightness of His coming. Thess. 2:8. That is His Second Coming at the end of the forty-two months. If Christ’s appearance destroys the reign of the antichrist, and the kingdoms of the world are restored to Christ’s control, it can only happen after the antichrist’s reign of 42 months, not before. Christ cannot return until the end of Daniel's 70th week. He cannot return before then, for His coming destroys the beast.

1.) Context 2.) Accurate Greek Translation 3.) Who the author is speaking/writing to. Look up the greek words Harpazo and Apantesis. These are the words that modern rapture-defenders use to translate as "Magical Vaporization of Believers" theory.

actually those verses speak of a post "abomination" rapture/meeting with Jesus, contrary to a pre trib idea. But the host of this video just talks and talks and NEVER makes his point clearly, ignoring scripture since it is contrary to his ideas. both the pre-trib idea is wrong as well as Hanegraaf's explanation

I know!!! I have several friends who believe in magical thinking , they will not have to go through any persecution

@@violetangelflame1 The tribulation is not just persecution, it's the *wrath of God* being poured out on the earth! Revelation 6:16-17; 14:19; 15:1, 7; 16:1; 19:15. See 1 Thessalonians 1:10; & 5:9. The children of God are delivered *from* His wrath. Yes, we are to suffer persecution for the name of Christ. But we are *not* appointed to suffer the wrath of God against the wicked!

Who says it’s easy way out? We already suffer enough on this earth, glad we only live once because I can not do it all over again. The problem if we’re still on earth during the wrath of God on what is written in Revelation then we are susceptible to the mark of the beast. What for Christ died for us? He revealed His mystery in Eph 1:11-14 The Holy Spirit sealed us guaranteeing our inheritance until the day of redemption. Rev 14:9 says those who accept the sign of the beast will not enter the kingdom of God. Doesn’t make sense right? those who refuse still be save through doctrine of Grace. No one knows when He comes again but one thing is sure, it’s soon!

@@judylloyd7901 ​ In neither I Thessalonians 1:10 nor 5:9 is there any mention of "the tribulation." The "wrath" that Paul is taking about is in contrast to salvation. He is specifically talking about the Day of the Lord (5:2) which comes as a thief in the night. This is Jesus' Second Coming, NOT an event seven years prior to that. According to Joel and Isaiah, the Day of the Lord happens AFTER the darkening of the sun, moon and stars. And according to Jesus, the darkening of the sun, moon and stars happens AFTER "the tribulation of those days." In other words, the order of events is this: 1) the tribulation of those days, THEN 2) the darkening of the sun, moon and stars, THEN 3) the Day of the Lord, which comes suddenly, without warning, and ends in the destruction of the wicked. (Prior to this time, unbelievers, who live in darkness, will be eating and drinking, and marrying and being given in marriage, just as in the days of Noah, unaware of the events which will soon come. Believers however are not in darkness that that day should overtake them. Jesus tells us in Luke's gospel, "WHEN you see these things, look up for your redemption draws near. ("These things" are signs in the sun, moon and stars, distress of nations, men's hearts failing for fear, the shaking of the powers of heavens). There is no such thing as an "imminent" rapture that can happen at any time. What the Bible teaches is ONE coming that will take unbelievers by surprise. They will not be looking for the signs and will be caught by surprise. When we are told to "watch," it is not talking about watching for a rapture. It means that we are to be on guard, to be diligent, lest we fall into temptation and deception. Dispensationalist love to twist the meaning of Scripture to suit their own agenda. (e.g. by conflating the terms "wrath" and "tribulation," changing the meaning of words such as "apostasy" and "watch." Not only that but Paul tells us that "now is the time for judgment for the people of God, and even now"the wrath of God is being revealed from heaven." God's wrath and His judgements have been poured out from the beginning. God's judgments are for the purpose of repentance, but there will come a time when men no longer repent, and it is then that God will pour out His unmitigated wrath on the wicked. So, no we are not appointed to wrath, but we are appointed to tribulation, even GREAT tribulation. The great tribulation is not "great" because of its intensity, but because of its extent. Persecution and martyrdom in the past has been intermittent and sporadic. In the future it will be continuous and worldwide. Even now we can see the rage building up, and soon it will be directed to God's people. But as Jesus says, though we be killed, not a hair on our heads will perish.

​@@judylloyd7901 The wrath of God came on His Lamb some 2,000 yrs ago. IT IS FINISHED! Revelation was written for the people of Israel, not for us living after the cross. The message of reconciliation was given to us, not a message which confuse believers or put fear for the unknown in their hearts. We who believe in the Son of God, we know without any doubt that the Father loves all of us and that no harm will ever be done unto us. The best advice is to come away from the book of Revelation and Teachers on this book, as 100 teachers will all have their own understanding. Read the love letters that the Spirit of God has written to us.. John, Ephesians, Colossians etc etc and pay good attention to yr quite time with the Lord Jesus. He is inside of us, do not look outside. For when we look away from Him, we will experience what Peter experienced when he took his eyes off Jesus. Matt 14:22-31

Decimated just means reducing by 1/10. It’s miss used a lot.

@@colindavis1496 when I listened to Hank on FM radio every day I had all this down pat, but it's becoming foggy now. Hanks book the apocalypse code explains it all and it is a fantastic read.

@@richardt875...It's actually pretty scary to realize the enormous chasm in interpretation ranging from Hank's preterist view and the ever so dominant pre dispensationalist view amongst the majority of teachers, I find the lack of overall consensus to be rather disheartening as I attempt to nail down which is correct. John MacArthur whom I respect as a Bible teacher takes the pre dispensationalist perspective, I'm not sure who to believe...!

@@colindavis1496 every preacher seems to have a different view on Revelation as a whole. I prefer Hanks explanation, because it offers more proof that Jesus is who he says he is.

@@colindavis1496 We know from Jesus Himself that the great tribulation is coming, but not when. I believe the 1000 year reign of Christ on earth after that period is well established in scripture. So, whether the church is raptured before or mid tribulation is important, but not crucial to a saved member of His church today. It makes little sense to me that a "post" tribulation rapture would be correct. We (His Bride) will reign with Christ on earth for that thousand years, not spend eternity in heaven OFF the earth, as some anti rapturists argue. The Old Testament is full of types and pictures of various sorts. Enoch's rapture (translation) into heaven is well established, and it took place before the flood of Noah destroyed the earth ( a type of the tribulation). Also, the church of Christ is HIs bride. In Jewish culture of the day, once betrothed (legally married at that time), the groom and bride remained apart for an extended period. Then the Husband would return and take His wife back, followed by the wedding feast. There are some answers to this gentleman's objections to the rapture doctrine, but I am not a scholar by any stretch. I am confident in a pre tribulation rapture of the church, and all we can do is remain faithful until our Lord returns, in whatever way that is manifested. God Bless

Here's the first resurrection: Rev 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the Word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. 5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. At the harvest: Matt 13:30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into My barn.

Hey! I don’t know you but, I love everything you wrote and would really love to discuss this with you. Personally, I have not yet seen one mid trib or post trib argument that makes sense. To me, any other timeline would deny the imminency of the rapture. If it’s post there’s no point at all. We go up just to come back down and rule for 1,000 years, that’s silly. If it’s mid then we can literally calculate it, WE WILL ALL BE READY there’d be no surprise . Thus making the parable of the virgins useless . Something that’s been on my mind lately , is will Luke warm , sleeping Christians OR the ones who are so desperate to prove their bravado with a midtrib rapture, would they be left behind ? It would honestly seem fair to me because most midtrib I’ve encountered are so sure they’re right and rude about it (not very Christ like or loving ). So I wonder if they would be left behind or just taken and left to look silly as they spring through the clouds . I’d love to hear your thoughts / scriptural evidence for “multiple raptures”

Uhm, Truth is a name for Jesus, but so is LIFE. Remember, WAY, TRUTH, LIFE. You don't have the wisdom or knowledge to judge whether this man has the Holy Spirit guiding him. It's funny that Dispensationalists and Pretribbers believe that Jesus is the Bride of the Church and the Father is the Bride of Israel. What kind of Husband would let his bride suffer horribly just before marrying her? The Father, obviously, according to PreTribbers. And the Bible teaches one rapture/resurrection at the last day. There is only one bus.

AMEN ! BROTHER ! GOD BLESS ! TRUTH !

@@HeyitsJade i wondered about that too. But if God would grant it to them according to their faith, then they miss the bus. Plus we agree that intimacy with Christ is important. What kind of relationship do they have with Jesus if they reject His words in Luke 21:36, Rev. 3:10, Matthew 16:18 and John 14:3?

There is a pretrib rapture dear believer but not all those that believe in pretrib will go in pretrib.The Philadelphian saints are the church of BROTHERLY LOVE. The bride wants all saints to be harvested with the barley company at pretrib. The bulk of the church will reject the bridal calling. Believers will go to heaven when they are ready to be harvested. The crop must be ready before it can be harvested. Barley and wheat are both grain companies that are both planted at the same time, in the autumn. Barley matures faster than wheat and is harvested in the spring. BARLEY IS THE BRIDE, and she leaves at pretrib. Wheat is harvested in the summer. Wheat is the great multitude church gathered in Rev 7..... THE VIRGINS WITHOUT NUMBER AKA THE INNUMERABLE COMPANY! The final company, caught up at midtrib, before the open door is shut, are the grapes that are gathered at midtrib. The grapes are the 144,000 Jews. The Jews finally believe Christ is their king because they gleaned the truth from the Barley and wheat companies.

The free entry is Jesus Christ crucified for us. His death and being risen is either enough or it is not. That is it. There have been millions saved throughout history that did not suffer some horrible death. Saying we must suffer and or die for Christ is saying what He did was not enough for "entry." Blasphemy. May you be guided and given wisdom from His Holy Spirit. In Jesus' Name.

@@michellethaxton7786 So wanting to prove loyalty to God is blasphemy ? if Love Christ you are hated no matter what

“No free entry”? We must pay a little more? So that’s like saying the blood of Christ is insufficient. Shame on you.

Without rightly dividing the word as GOD commands to do in II Tim 2:15 we will not understand God's word properly. As proven by this video. As far as us going through the tribulation, we the body of Christ will be out of here. Just as promised: 1Thess 5:9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, 1Thess 4:15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.1Thess 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:1Thess 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.1Thess 4:18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words. What comfort is there waiting for the WRATH to come. The bible answer man just doesn't understand this dispensation of GRACE. Grace is not wrath. Eph 3:2 If ye have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward:

D & K Grace there is a difference between wrath and tribulation. We are not appointed to wrath because we are in Christ. However, through much tribulation (the first century church) entered the kingdom of heaven. We in the 21st century have the kingdom, but all that will to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution. The scriptures you quoted speak nothing of a pre-tribulation rapture, no matter how much you want them to or believe them to. 1 Thess 4, in context, is an explanation of the dead who have died in Christ and their place in the return of Christ. 1 Thess 5 Paul is instructing the Thessalonians to walk circumspectly, since they are in Christ, and since those in Christ are not appointed to His wrath-don’t do things that will have wrath poured on you. You must learn to read the scriptures in context, my friend.

@@minimations8697 You think you can do something to have God's wrath poured out on you? Tell me, what is that? 1Thess 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. The Lord's return in this verse is a return to the clouds not the earth as is the 2nd coming at the end of the tribulation, Daniels 70th week, Jacobs trouble. You need to rightly divide God's word to be able to distinguish, Law from grace, prophecy from mystery, Jew from Gentile, and yes Heaven and Earth. Earth is where the promised kingdom will be for the Jews and the Heavenlies is where the body of Christ will reside. This is how context works. By rightly dividing the word. 2Tim 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

D & K Grace you keep emphasizing “rightly dividing,” but you’re not doing it. First of all, Daniel’s 70 weeks were fulfilled in Christ. In Daniel 9:24, just read what the purpose of the 70 weeks was. Forget the specifics in the following verses for a moment-just read the 6-fold purpose. Who put an end to sin? Who atoned for sin? Who sealed vision and prophet?Who built a house? Who executed a new covenant? Christ did all that. The 70 weeks are fulfilled. Again, Paul’s admonishment to the Thessalonians (and to all disciples of Christ) has continued to be “Walk worthy of the calling,” meaning since you are in Christ, make no provision for the flesh. His focus isn’t so much on the “wrath,” but rather it’s more on mortifying the deeds of the flesh. I guess I should have said, “Don’t live like those who will have wrath poured out on them.” You and I, if we are in Christ, are not to live in sin. If you want to say that this generation of Israel has to complete the “sentence” or punishment of a generation in antiquity then you are saying God has violated His own word. He promised that He would no longer do that (Ezekiel 18:2). What dispensationalists believe is like saying my grandfather committed a crime and was sentenced to 70 years in prison-but a judge decided to suspend his time in prison and then sends me to prison to finish the sentence. God has not done and will not do that. Israel finished their 70 years of desolations spoken by Daniel in 9:1. Then Christ fulfilled the 70 7s told to Daniel in 9:24. The “rightly dividing” needs to occur on the part of Dispensationalists who think God still has to go back to Israel again. Why do you think the temple was destroyed? That was the sign of the end of the Jewish age as JESUS promised in Matthew 24. Now, with the Jewish age out of way, all is in Christ-the executor of a new covenant, and the old is done with. Why would God suspend the new covenant to go back to something that’s decaying, dying, and done with? That’s like giving up Windows 10 to go back to Windows 3.1. Read the entirety of Paul’s writings and you will find that Christ was the plan all along! It was always the plan that all people would be His image and that He would have the kingdom. In Christ there is no Jew, Gentile, male, female, etc. Now, yes, there is a remnant of Israel in Him, but a portion of Israel that is included in the ONE body of Christ, for whom He comes once to deliver from persecution in the end, and then we will forever be with the LORD! Christ does NOT have two bodies; Israel and the church. He only has one, made of all nations, as He promised in Isaiah 43:19-21. Once more, There is no pre-trib rapture. In context Paul is addressing the question posed to him by the Thessalonians regarding the dead and their place in the coming of the LORD.

Once a person comes to understand the New Covenant promised to Israel and Judah in Jeremiah 31:31-34, which is found fulfilled by Christ during the first century in Hebrews 8:6-13, and Hebrews 10:16-18, and specifically applied to the Church in 2 Corinthians 3:6-8, and Hebrews 12:22-24, modern Dispensational Theology falls apart, and the pretrib removal of the Church falls with it.

Jacques Wilmore And which of the Church Fathers held this view, 0. So, Christians for 1800 years missed it, this theological construct, in the Greek, the Latin, the Syriac? Isn’t it more important to be ready for when Christ returns, and to focus on practical Christian ministries unto the least of these, then to dwell on the How he returns.

@@matthewvanmatre5137 What is "this view" to which you refer ? Partial rapture ? If that is the question, isn't it the word of God which should decide what we should believe above creeds or checklist of "Church Fathers"? They had varying degrees and shifting degrees of understanding, for which I don't think they should be blamed for some deficiency at times. So Scripture rules my belief over and above the statistics of Church Fathers' insights (which though are not to be despised). Lastly, OF COURSE our Christian daily living is the best preparation. No debate there. However His coming and our living are inextricably linked together. "Expecting AND HASTENING the coming of the Lord "(2 Pet. 3:12).

Jacques Wilmore And that is my point, in that you think you see something in the text that suggests any type of rapture but somehow the greatest minds of Christendom missed it. I’m just of the thought that their understanding of Greek, Hebrew, and Syriac Scriptures is far superior to yours.

@@matthewvanmatre5137 An expert on writings of church fathers I am not. However, Jesus Himself did not "miss" a catching away of watching, vigilant, disciples at His parousia. Ie . "Remember Lot's wife. Whoever seeks to preserve his soul-life will loss it, and whoever losses it will preserve it alive. I tell you, in that night there will be two on one bed; the one will be taken and the other will be left. There will be two women grinding together; one will be taken but the other will be left. Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other will be left." (See Luke 17:32-38) Apparently, Jesus as recorded by Luke did not "miss" the teaching. See also Matthew 24:37-44. He expects wise disciples will live and walk moment by moment as if His sudden arrival unexpectedly will reward their vigilance. Am I right? "

I was just reading the church part of rev and the passage they say is the rapture is to Philadelphia which is before Laodicea, so in some sense, these guys have missed their own rapture....Jesus says we won't enter heaven without our new resurrected bodies as far as I can tell, so the living won't precede the dead, so therefore the rapture is a component of the Day of the Lord for those believers who are still alive. Makes sense this way and fits the simple clear reading of the text. The twinkling of an eye verse is about that change in the body, not the rapture per say. Basically, these guys are teaching a pre-resurrection before the Day of the Lord. You don't sneak into Heaven and flesh and blood do not enter Heaven. Jesus was flesh and bone, so different with his new first fruits body I think.

@@bronzemv4440 great point amongst many great pionts demolishing such nonsense

Hank is a prderist. It takes very little time to rip that view to pieces.

Kevin Evans, the Bible obliterates the erroneous theory of the Church going through the tribulation period. In relation to the coming great tribulation period, both Jesus and Paul said we won't go through it. Do not believe Hank, or any others erroneous end time teacher who doesn't believe the pre-tribulation rapture.

@@alanhales239 You can just say that Alan as if you are the ultimate authority. But where does the Bible say what you are saying? Are we supposed to just believe you cause you said it?

Amen brother! Post-tribbers are proudly proclaiming that they would lay down their lives for Christ at the prospect of taking the mark. But just like Peter they are denying the words of Jesus in Luke 21:36, Rev. 3:10, John 14:3 and Matthew 16:18.

How do you square 1 thessalonians 4:13-18 where he says "we will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep"...."and the dead in christ will rise first", 1 Corinthians 15:52 that says at the last Trump Christ will descend from the clouds in his second coming, second coming last Trump which is at the end of the tribulation as spelled out in revelation 20:4-5 where christ comes and and raises the dead, verse 4 "and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years." And verse 5 where it says this was the first resurrection. If we do not preceed the dead in christ (first ressurection of saints) being raised which is at the end of the tribulation when jesus comes for the second time descending from the clouds, how can you preach pre-tribulation rapture when it clearly says we will not preceede those saints raised at the end of the tribulation? Pre tribulation rapture is unbiblical when looking at this simple timeline.

@@scottwall8419 but look in verse 17, in 1st Thessalonians chapter 4. Caught up is our word. Which is how we get rapture. We are not in the tribulation, 1st Thessalonians 5:9. 1st Corinthians 15:52-55 is the rapture. Those in Revelation 20:4-5 are tribulation saints

@Titus 2:13 those in Revelations 20:4-5 are the dead in christ. It does not say tribulation saints. What it does say is that is the 1st ressurection. If there was a rapture before the tribulation where the dead in christ are raised first like 1 corinthians 15:52 says then you have proven the bible a liar because the pre tribulation rapture of the dead in christ would be the 1st ressurection and revelations 20 would be the second. Not to mention the only time the dead in christ are mentioned to be raised is in revelations 20. 1 cor 15:52 also says "at the last trumpet" so either there multiple last trumpets or the your claiming it either doesnt actually mean the last trumpet which is coincidentally in revelations 20 also or that the bible is wrong again. So the dead in christ and the the last trumpet happen to be when christ literally appears to the world in revelations 19-20. So is there pre-tribulation rapture and the bible contradicts itself twice in this limited context or should we trust in what the bible says? 1 thessalonians 5:9 question. If Christian's are not going to be around while the wrath is being poured out then as each person accepts christ during the tribulation are they just SOL and have ti experience gods wrath? Also, does the same go for the 144,000, do we just say tough gig? No, I think god will make certain protections for his people to protect them possibly like he did with Noah and his family or like he did with the Israelites during the plagues in Egypt. Another thing I would ask you to consider is Revelation 19:7 where the great multitude who comes with christ says "Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready." According to then the wedding feast referred to by Jesus in Matthew 25 and Mark 13 has not happened yet and the bride(which is the church) has made herself ready, this is the end of the tribulation. A common beleif in pre-tribulation beleif is that christ comes for his bride before the tribulation and that verse indicates he has not done that up to this point. Sorry for the lengthy reply, curious to hear your reaction.

@@scottwall8419 I do understand, and I might be wrong and many others but I respect your opinion. I do believe in a pre-trib for many reasons but i won't say that I am above everyone. As well I won't argue back. This is Satan doing, being the author of confusion. I do think the rapture and the second coming are different, you just have to know what your looking for. More over you do have to watch for His return, Matthew 24:36 and Luke 21:28. Have a bless day or night 🌃 ( I do love and forgive you, but mostly, if you kept arguing, repent, I am not saying you did but if you have, please do it. This is a amazing thing God has blessed us with. )

The parousia of the Lord includes His "presence" and His physical return. In other words the scope of the word parousia (often rendered "coming") is wider than just His physical return to the earth.

I've been studying as well ibwas in agreement with this until I heard the 17 hour bible study from Andy Woods. Very good arguement just check it out :) also feel free to get back to me and let me know

@@stringerchick3650 I'll check this out indeed. I think it's essential to get it right or we're setting the church up for trouble. Believe me I want a pre rapture but I also am mindful of many who believe in mid or post rapture. Having done many hours study on this and considered the timing and the Greek words used in Thessalonians etc I am fairly sure of a pre rapture. As I read post trib arguments I find myself thinking, "yes but what about....?" Then I recheck what I've studied lol. I'm going through a lengthy post trib position that I've downloaded atm. So far what I've found is, the reasoning is plausible but when cross checking I find certain scriptures are ignored. You can't do that with the word of God. It has to be 'rightly divided'. Any way. I'll check it out. 17 hours?! Phew.

@@stringerchick3650 I've checked out Andy Woods and indeed he explains the biblically based reasons for pre trib very well indeed. I have now completed an examination of the post trib position as taught by Jeffrey A. Mott. A quick perusal of this work appears to present a very powerful argument for a post tribulation rapture. I'm sure you can access this for yourself on the net. However on deeper investigation I found that it is on very weak ground. I could list everything here but take to long. However I will deal with just a couple. Mott uses the 'type' of Egypt to show that 'believers' will have to go through the full tribulation as the children of Israel did before Moses (The Lord) finally led them out in a kind of 'rapture' before the Egyptians were judged in the Red sea. This, at first seems powerful but (comparing scripture with scripture and) by rightly dividing the word of God this is revealed as completely wrong. Jesus Himself gave us two 'types' as examples: The days of Noah and The days of Sodom and Gomorrah where the believers were clearly absolutely removed before judgement, before tribulatuon. So I'm wondering why Mott used a type that Jesus did not? I also noticed that Mott ignores scriptures that indicate the tribulatuon is something specifically designated to the Jews. Jeremiah 30 clearly states this is the time of JACOBS trouble. As I said, there is much more. Indeed, every single point he proposes fails to rightly divide the word of God on the matter. So, my conclusion from my own studies and diligently studying the post trib position I am thoroughly convinced the rapture will no be at any time, and definitely BEFORE the tribulation.

Yet another deceived prophet of the pre-trib fib. Armageddon is at the last day. SEE now?

WK, You base much of your beliefs on a far future fulfillment of Revelation. The writer, John, addressed the book to the seven churches in Asia Minor that were actual (literal!) churches in his time. He says, quoting Jesus, “the things that must take place shortly”, “I am coming soon”, “the time is near” throughout Revelation. The revelation was given to John during one of the most trying times of the first century Christians. John says he is a “brother and fellow partaker in the tribulation” they were experiencing. The rivalry between those who said Caesar is Lord and those proclaiming Jesus is Lord began in earnest with the persecution of Nero in 64 AD, as we know from Tacitus and other historians. It is without a doubt that the revelation had a firm contextual grounding in the first century church struggling against the persecutions by the beast of Rome, not to the present day 2,000 years removed. If you want to understand Revelation, you must first understand the Old Testament; 2/3rd of the book is quoting or alluding to the OT prophets. For example, the harlot on the beast with the cup of wine representing the blood of the prophets and the saints was used in Jeremiah and Ezekiel as symbolic of apostate Judah in the 6th BC, when God judged the nation and destroyed Jerusalem and the temple in 586 BC. Jesus told the Pharisees they were guilty of the blood of “the prophets whose blood they shed”, and to fill up the full measure. This was the precise symbol used to describe the coming wrath of God in the OT through the Babylonians as it was in Revelation through the Romans. According to Eusebius the Christians fled Judea to the mountains of Perea to the north, in Pella, when the Roman armies led by Cestius Gallus surrounded the city in 66 AD. The Christians who heeded Jesus’ words to flee Judea were spared, while the Jews trusted in their ability to find protection in the temple, God’s house, and were slaughtered by the sword, famine, and plague-just as in Jeremiah and Ezekiel’s day. There is no mention of the antichrist in the book of Revelation, nor anywhere else in the NT. John describes “antichrists” as false teachers who had “gone out from” the congregations of believers in his day, but no end times antichrist is to be found in the Bible, at all. This is purely pop-eschatology, and it sells lots of books.

That's simple go through Matthew 24 the Olivet's Discourse, the Messiach gave the answers to His Disciples. I mean there you'll find His direct answer.

Jeffrey Osburn your type just wants to argue .

Tristan Anderson Our beliefs should be strongly grounded in biblical evidence so that we can confidently share our faith with others. The exchange of information we have on this forum is presenting our “arguments”-our defense of what we believe-but need not be “argumentative”. Examining the strengths and weaknesses of our beliefs makes us stronger in our service in the Kingdom, as “iron sharpens iron” (Prov 27:17). I have come to believe the rapture as commonly taught is not a biblical doctrine. I came to this conclusion after carefully studying the Bible, after previously believing it simply because that was what I was taught. I want to encourage you to challenge your beliefs, and be willing to follow what the Bible clearly teaches-not me, or any “prophecy experts”. There is nothing to fear or lose by challenging our beliefs against the Bible, only the reward of proper study and strength in your beliefs. My investigative journey of 8 years (and counting!) have led me to the conclusion that I could no longer support dispensationalism and a secret coming/partial resurrection called the rapture. Be encouraged to “test all things and hold on to that which is good” (1 Thess 5:12). Be blessed, Tristan!

@@madvidz9819 Full Study about Harvest on Pentecost at my Fb page...Harolds WK

Show me a verse that says we will be here during tribulation. Why would God want Christians to be here on the earth during all the plagues?

Dawn Willoughby The plagues aren’t meant for believers but rather non-believers and unrepentant sinners. Wouldn’t it make sense that the fact that you know about the plagues and can read Revelation as a believer means that believers will experience it? Why even read Revelation if we won’t experience all the bad things prophecied? How can we expect to be saved by a rapture when most saints were killed for their belief and Jesus promised his followers would be persecuted? If Christians in Syria were crucified and had their heads cut off by ISIS then why should you or I be spared persecution? The Israelites were present during the 10 plagues on ancient Egypt, but they were spared the plagues because they put lamb’s blood on their doors. Tribulation will have a lot of violence, a lot will happen to believers and a lot to non-believers. I would say the entire book of Revelation is the answer to your request of a verse that shows believers will be on Earth during the plagues. Jesus promised his followers they would be persecuted for His name. Christians in Syria have been crucified by ISIS, Saint Peter was crucified upside down. I really doubt we will be raptured away for no reason. If we were raptured away the whole world would know Christ is Lord without question, and convienently get another chance

The taking away of the church, The Bride, is the rapture. Then God's wrath is poured out on the earth. The wrath is not for the church. Then there is the second coming of Christ and a thousand year reign.

Christians suffer persecution at the hands of men. Not at the hands of God. The tribulation isn't persecution. It's a fiery judgement upon the ones who rejected Christ.

@@suelloyd4384 its crystal clear to me in this verse that the gathering to Christ happens after the falling away and the man of sin is revealed. 2nd thessalonians chapter 2 2 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, 2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. 3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things The bible teaches we all will face tribulation and persecution, during the birth pains in matthew 24 we will be delivered before kings and govenors even by our own families to be put to death for the testiomy of christ. Similar to revelation chapter 6 mentioning the altar of souls opened, where those inside are told to wait until their bretheren are KILLED as they were (not raptured) So as far as i know most of us true believers will be killed and persecuted and jailed for the true testimony of christ either during the birth pangs or first 5 seals. Then its clear as written in Pauls books as i shown in the verse above Corinthians and thessalonians that the coming Christ AND OUR GATHERING TO HIM doeesnt happen until after the falling away (great apostasy) and the man of perdition revealed. At the LAST TRUMPET!! Again in Revelation 12 the woman who i believe is ISRAEL is protected 1260 days (3.5 years) , the dragon then goes to make war with the remnant of her seed. Those who hold the testimony or CHRIST!! Thats us his church!!! The antichrist rises next chapter and is given power for guess what 3.5 years to overcome the SAINTS!! Who are the saints? We are believers and like Paul and Stephen and the others we will likley be persecuted and killed. 3.5 years is the exact time ISRAEL is protected on earth. (the woman 12 stars 12 tribes of israel see genesis joesphs dream) Its very clear we will all face persecution and tribulation for the testimony of Christ, its also very clear to me the gathering to christ (rapture) is after the tribulation period and the DEAD rise first. Im not right about everything, please if u can use the scriptures to correct me ! Thnx So we must endure until the end no matter what comes our way!!! Praise the most High and his son Jesus and beg his forgiveness no matter what happens!! Gos bless praise Jesus!!

This deception was devised by Satan, not man, so that those who believe it as truth will be disappointed and disillusioned when it (the Rapture) doesn't happen and they deny the Faith. Another reason why God might allow the Church to go thru the Great Tribulation is so those remaining Christians who are alive and remain faithful to Him will be able to proclaim the Gospel to those under His judgement for sin (not having trusted in Christ's atonement for their sin). If He removed Christians from the earth, who would remain to proclaim the Good News to the lost?

Well said my friend. And these are secondary issues within the pale of orthodox Christianity. The one thing that is non negotiable and is primary doctrine is the fact that Jesus will come a second time…..and He will come not as a Lamb but as a.Judge. Come Lord Jesus!

Responding to a challenge by a post trib Brother during the lockdown, I was so excited to finally do a thorough end times Bible study for myself, and prove the pre trib doctrine I believed for 40+ years. Now, I know the truth.

What about Jesus talking about the abomination being a future event? Matthew 24?Mark 13?

fancy meeting you here

🙏

I can't find anything that does *NOT* speak of a pre-trib rapture when reading the eschatological passages, hmmm...interesting that we see things *DIFFERENTLY,* 'eh? ~~:) Maranatha!

I just wanted you to know that the term "rapture" is a Latin term used to speak of the Greek term "harpazo" which is found in 1 Thessalonians 4:17. The term "harpazo" means "to be snatched" or taken away. It is used of the apostle Philip being snatched away in Acts 8:39. Paul is teaching that believers will be caught up into the air to meet Christ and will be given their resurrected bodies at that time (1 Thess. 4:15-18).

People also say that there is no Trinity in the Bible. Just because something is not outrightly expresses in a way we expect it doesn't mean that it's not there. One atheist questioned me where does God mention DNA in the Bible and when I quoted Acts 17:26 he said that there is no DNA and therefore the Bible is false. This phenomenon of denying the pre-trib rapture and rapture in general is of the same spirit.

@@svengotal8771 Well said.

Al lest some like you know the truth about the pre tribulation being true.

Zach, read Leviticus 14:33-53, the story regarding a plague of mildew in one's house. Here in the Torah is the pre-Tribulation Rapture confirmed, the priest (Christ) comes before the 7 days (years) to call out believers from the house (the world), being the sixth church of Revelation. Reddish plague is symbolic of leftism, Marxism, communism, etc. Greenish mildew is symbolic of Islam. People found in the house during the 7 days must wash their clothes, this group is symbolic of people who come to faith during the Tribulation, the seventh church of Revelation.

Hank is alluding to one of the logical implications and difficulties with premillennialism (whether the dispensational or historic varieties). Namely, after the Lord’s Second Coming during the millennium both resurrected saints (those raised at the beginning of the millennium) will live alongside children born in the millennium, presumably non-resurrected people both sinners and saints. Plus many of them will stand with Satan, after the releasing, and wage a revolution against the throne of Jesus Christ. Moreover, premillennialism implies the millennial saints will have a chance for salvation after Jesus returns and after Satan’s rebelling ending the millennium. Hank addresses the 70 weeks of Daniel in this article… www.equip.org/article/daniel-prophesy-seven-year-great-tribulation/

Rapture explained in 10 minutes at The Lord's Day Ministry.

Thank you. I am not totally convinced of pre-trib but it is so unscholarly for Hank to dogmatically declare that "there is no Biblical evidence for a pre-trib rapture". I tend to be pre-trib and I think that is as far as you can commit to any of these views. They all have Biblical support and they all have Biblical detractions. Which one comes out most likely? For me it looks like pre-trib.

@@bronzemv4440 if you search youtube, there are multiple rapture debates, and they always come out pre-trib, not just Walvoord.

@@bronzemv4440 some believe the first rapture is pre trib for believers, then during trib, then at the end of trib, depending on how hard-headed people are in accepting the gospel

It partially started with Scofield and his teachings and took off, at least in the US.

​@@JesusChristismySavior-Julieit actually all started with the first century believers.. that's just a fable that Darby and Scofield started it.. but the bible didn't go into production til the 16th century.. look up Clement of rome(35-101).. Ignatius of Antioch who died in 110.. if your gonna research it.. don't half ass it.. search it out all the way😊

It will be a time of great destitution, where we will be the enemy of the world. Ironic.

The Christians fled Judea to the mountains north and east of the Jordan in Pella, following Jesus’ instructions for them to flee when they saw Jerusalem surrounded by armies, and escaped the great tribulation. Remember that Jesus was addressing those living at that time, that “this generation” would see happening. The destruction of the city and the temple happened just as he said it would.

Jeffrey Osburn - I disagree, they asked Him to reveal the signs of "the end", and that wasn't. Besides, they never witnessed many saying, here is Christ, etc. They never had to endure to the end, that wasn't the worst time in history, and when that was over, He didn't came back for them.

Todd Wood You’ll have to disagree with the biblical and historical evidence, not with me. The “end” was not the “end of the world” (kosmos) as translated in the KJV, but the “end of the age” (aionos). The end of the Mosaic system of animal sacrifice and the political-religious state did happen when the city and temple were destroyed, over one million Jews killed, tens of thousands taken captive as slaves, and most others in exile. Josephus, the Jewish eyewitness historian of this desolation, records the rise of scores of false messiahs and false prophets. The Book of Acts records a few as well. These are well documented historical facts. The Christians left Judea and went north to the mountainous region of Perea when they saw Jerusalem surrounded by Roman legions, and so escaped the horrible time of tribulation from 66-73 AD. Jesus returned to judge apostate Israel just as God personally poured out his wrath on their ancestors during the fall of Jerusalem and destruction of Solomon’s temple by the Babylonian army in 586 BC. And the temple was destroyed in 70 AD on the same day of the Jewish calendar, the 9th of Av. Remember, the disciples question was in response to Jesus pronouncing judgement on the Pharisees in the preceding passages to the Olivet Discourse, when he said “your house is left unto you desolate.” They we’re walking away from the temple when the disciples drew Jesus’ attention to the great and expensive stones, to which Jesus replied, “not one stone will be left on top of the other.” This prophecy was fulfilled to the letter. That’s what the biblical and historical record says, not my opinion. It’s a great confirmation of the deity of Christ and the reliability of the Bible.

Jeffrey Osburn - and the sun was darkened, and the moon didn't give light, and the stars fell from heaven, and every eye saw Him,and all the tribes of earth mourned, and He gathered His elect?
