Just as there is no covenant superceding the new covenant in the blood of Jesus; and as Jesus is the ultimate revelation of God, never to be superceded, only brought into greater and greater manifestation; so we are God ultimate,"For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones." (Eph 5:30) The Church is here to take over, not be taken out! All of creation is in travail, "...for the manifestation (not the disappearance!) of the sons of God. " (Rom 8:19) Daniel 2:34-35: 34 Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands (Jesus,) which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces (the Roman Empire's way was changed by Jesus and it became Christendom.) 35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain (= kingdom,") and filled the whole earth (now in process.) Daniel 2:44: 44 And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.

Obviously, what is NOT written cannot be Biblical! The positions of "pre-, mid-, or, post-" TRIBULATION depend on there being a "seven years great tribulation." There is no mention of any "seven years great tribulation" in the Bible. That phrase does not occur. All it takes is for you to find one verse to prove me wrong. When it's not written nobody (following Jesus) is under any obligation to believe it! How to implement the authority of the Bible: Confine your expression of faith to the actual words the Holy Spirit chose to make His revelation known. Through the use of concordances it can authoritatively be established whether something is written or not. The original language should be consulted to verify things of importance.

So defend it! The positions of "pre-, mid-, or, post-" TRIBULATION depend on there being a "seven years great tribulation." There is no mention of any "seven years great tribulation" in the Bible. All it takes is for you to find one verse to prove me wrong. When it's not written nobody (following Jesus) is under any obligation to believe it!

Through the use of concordances it can authoritatively be established whether something is written or not. The original language should be consulted to verify things of importance.

The entire "pre-trib," "mid-trib," "post-trib" argument is based on a common ignorance. All three views and the terms used to describe them have one thing in common: a "7 years great tribulation." Since this phrase is nowhere in the Bible, to try to determine events in relation to it is to fumble around in darkness. To reiterate: There is no mention of any "seven years great tribulation" in the Bible. All it takes is for you to find one verse to prove me wrong. When it's not written you are not obligated to believe it! Actually, you're better off not to believe things people learned from other people who learned it from their teachers that were taught it by those before them, even if there were some wonderful people mixed up in the chains of human tradition and doctrines of men. It took me a long time to learn to do the following and I'm still working on it. Admit it's not directly taught, only obliquely referred to. People give lip-service to the authority of the Bible but don't know how to implement it. Confine your expression of faith to the actual words the Holy Spirit chose to make His revelation known. Through the use of concordances it can authoritatively be established whether something is written or not. The original language should be consulted to verify things of importance. That's it in a nutshell. Now, with the touch of a button you can do these searches that were a lot more work when I was starting out to pursue an accurate understanding of Jesus's word. You don't have to be a Greek scholar either to use this free software. Remember however, concordances let you check a word in all its occurences and are a better help to what God means. Lexicons are often based on usage, that is, what's already been used to represent the original. Any of them let you change a word to mean something here and another thing there. They're good to give a general overview of a word meaning, but you should find a word that best fits all its occurences. Use a concordance. Men use words inconsistent with the original because they want to be the authorities about what God meant to say. This way they justify their popular doctrines. What the true disciple does is find out what God actually said or did not say. Thankfully, we aren't completely dependant on crossing every doctrinal "t" and dotting every Bible knowledge "i" in order to walk in His presence. God looks on the heart. But we'd be fools to say a right understanding of His gift to us of the written Logos is irrelevant.
