I try to be ready for His return all the time, as if He was to return today. Yet, I am willing to wait until He gets word from the Father, and I accept that may be some time in the near future. I lean toward one, but will not commit to any.

Ok, I have study all three and see why most people are pre. However, i do see post more consistent with the history of scripture and the words of Christ. As far as mid i think it is closer to pre then post. All that being said, do you think subscribing to only one postion is dangerous for Christians?

If scripture said one over the rest, and we disagreed, then that would be dangerous. Yet, scripture does not give the answer. We are told what to look for and to keep watch, being prepared, having our oil full and wick trimmed.

Aman!! Funny how all the bridemaids all thought they were ready and only half were. not funny but very sad! This is my concern.

It should be a concern for everyone. It is when we think we have it all together when it all falls apart ---> the foolish ones. We all should remain ready. He could come back at any second. We only think we have an understanding, but do we really? What if we are post and think we have a lot of time, being slack in our walk, oil half filled ... and He comes back now???

I see it like this.

Right now they are putting together a reality show in Heaven called: You've been Raptured!!!

Everyone up there knows it won't be a very good show if the people knew when it was coming, so they are putting a lot of effort into keeping it secret.

It is going to be an awesome show :laugh:

Aman! I think we as christians should be open to all positions. I think its dangerous when preachers teach one position as if it is gospel truth. So if it dont happen one way but it happens another, at lease we wont be devastated and lose faith.

I find this post a bit strange, but I guess it is because I am looking at it from my position, my walk.

I Love the Lord Jesus Christ, I live under His Grace. I try to follow His Word in my daily walk. I worry about today, and where I am in this walk. I let tomorrow take care of itself under Him. How I walk is the crux of the matter. I do this through prayer, church, home group, prayer meetings, reading my bible, and trying to walk a quiet walk that speaks volumes to others. And I have learned that there are those that I can trust to tell me if they think I am going off track. These people use scripture as their base and not opinion, and some of them (on Worthy as well), have taught me to do the same...

So I don't concern myself about much else. I just live in Him daily, and try (Oh it is sometimes so hard), to make my every breath a prayer...

What will be will be, and He knows what that is, only He.

Blessings

pan = it will all pan out in the end :vader:

...But for who? Onelight says we need to like the wise maids, but they all thought they were wise and it did not pan out for some. some were left, but all this time they tought that they were ready. Can we all be right? no! so how can it all pan out in the end?

The "pan" isn't for a who. It's about the dogma of the doctrine. It's a way of saying I'm not going to get all bent out of shape over this argument. We are to serve the Lord faithfully whatever the circumstances or situation, whether He comes sooner or comes later.

As for the parable, it can go either way. The 5 without oil could also have been those expecting the pre-Trib . . . thus the reason they ran out of oil . . . they were not preparing themselves to go through the hard times.

But really, the Pre-Post Trib argument was not the point Jesus was after with this parable.

If a person's reason for slacking is because they are "post" and think they have lots of time, they truly need to get their heads screwed on straight. :vader: How do they expect to survive the Great Tribulation?

It's not going to pan out for everyone....but it's going to pan out just fine for those saints (as per the examples given here) who take each step faithfully.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
