The rapture doctrine, was started by satanists to weaken the faith of Christians so that when the trials start, they will not be ready for them and will break them to satan's will. It does say however, that When Jesus comes, the elect will be taken and the earth will then immediately burn. Most people have a bad habit of listening to other's views and not reading the bible for themselves. Any thoughts?

I have said before that I believe in pre-trib because of my study of the Bible. Not out of fear of the "Great Tribulation". This opinion of yours is offensive to those of us who believe the Bible teaches Pre-trib. If I am wrong I will take my lumps with the rest of you guys. I am not saying I know everything. Eschatology by mere implication of the word is debatable. But you post or mid tribers or even preterists could be wrong too. Its possible all of us have a different understanding of prophetic passages and yet be still saved. I had a thought yesterday that this differing understanding of eschatology or whatever doctrine just reinforces the doctrine of the freewill of man, even after we are saved. We obviously aren't robots that believe exactly alike on everything, even after becoming believers. This explains the many denominations better than anything else that I can imagine.

Guest Xan Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 The rapture doctrine was started by satanists That's quite a claim. I would be interested in any documentation you have to support this theory. It does say however, that When Jesus comes, the elect will be taken and the earth will then immediately burn Where does it say that? Even if the Bible said that, that is still support for the rapture because rapture means to be caught up, which is Biblical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Xan Posted August 6, 2002 Share Posted August 6, 2002 This really needs to be in Eschatology. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I long ago gave up the notion that every interpretation of Scripture except the one I hold is satanical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
