Missing the Rapture call

[MK202002]

whoa- I'm post trib; but if the lord calls ahead of my schedule, who's going to argue? Who wants to go through the tribuation?

A a serious question: Is believing in the pre trib rapture a salvation issue? I'm not saying it's not important, but if Jesus says "come up here", and his sheep know his voice, will a previos rejection of a pre-trib rapture prevent a born-again beliver from being taken?

Well I'm not sure about pre tribulation . I think it will be mid . I dont think God would leave us here doing the whole thing . However I know God will take us when he wants us back home . Revalations gives us a great insight to what will happen.

Everyone ,I think wish in there own when will God comes back . thats just a thought .

God bless

What difference does it really make?????

It is strong delusion to think it matters either way. When HE call us, we will go no matter what we "think"

No one knows exactly when that will be; so arguing about it is not only unproductive but harmful to the Body of Messiah because of the strife it causes.

My experience is that pre-tribbers think they have God in a neat little box....and it causes them to be critical/judgemental towards anyone who doesn't agree that God is in that box.

Don't we have better things to do? This whole discussion is a pointless rabbit trail....but to judge people who don't agree with pre-trib theology as somehow unworthy is especially offensive and legalistic.

Please stop this foolishness.

It doesn't really matter, what does matter is if your name is written in book of life

And I agree with yod and angels. Jesus said He didn't know, only the Father. Are you pre tribbers insinuating you know more than Jesus?

So I guess you can have an opanion But I cant !!! It only matter about our relationship with god . I'm so sorry I "THINK" about things .

Angels4u got it right .

Let everyone think for them selfs .

The Pharisees use to spend almost every waking moment in study of the scirptures, living to perfection, and gaining glimpses of who the Messiah would be. They had all sorts of theories on what the Messiah would look like, how he would act, but most importantly, how he would be recognized when he came. These experts, who had the Torah memorized, had the Messiah killed when He did come because they didn't recognize Him. Though extremely knowledgable they still didn't know what the Messiah would look like when He came...

So how can we be certain on how His second return will look?

One way I can think that it really does matter (hypothectically). The antichrist will have a false prophet buddy, correct? I imagine a false prophet will know his bible enough to twist things. If we are left here through the tribulation, then he could say "Since you are not with Christ in heaven, this can't be the 'mark of the beast' that some of you are talking about." Since the only other option will not be to buy and sell, people could very easily be talked into this. Now if I am wrong, well, I owe you an apology. We'll see.

We must be prepared spiritually for these hard times and persecution. I have also found that study of bible prophecy doesn't lead to a distration from Jesus, it puts the spotlight on Him.

[apothanein kerdos]

Again, I must ask the important question, how can we be sure ANY theory of the second comming will be close to how it actually is? There is more prophecy containing the first comming yet no one even came close to getting it right.

re: Missing the Rapture Call~

I think when a person dies, this is his rapture call. The Bible states that know one will know the day or hour.
