I'm also confused why you believe John Darby " created " the rapture teaching. For those willing to do their homework, the rapture teaching can be found all the way back to the early church. Clement of Rome ( 35 - 101 ), Ignatius of Antioch ( d.110 ), & Irenaeus of Lyon ( 120 - 202 and also a disciple of Polycarp ) all mention the rapture of the church in their writings. This evidence SHOULD end the false claim that somehow Darby created the teaching, but no doubt there will be people who persist in claiming it. I Disagree, feel free to post your quotes of the ECF on your claimed pre-trib rapture Darby 1830's is the father of what we have today, C.I. Scofield promoted Darby's teachings in his 1909 reference Bible, Dallas Theological Seminary is the world headquarters for the pre-trib rapture, and dispensationalism's theology 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read the article. If it's factually true then it will withstand the scrutiny. I saw quite a bit of emotional pleading in the article. This is not what it says, this is why SINGLE VERSES have to never be used to tell us prophecy in full, Satan uses tricks to deceive people because that his job. So He got the Church of England via the KJV to change DEPARTURE to FALLING AWAY to take a pot shot at the Church of Rome (RCC) because lets face it, both were filled with purely evil men at the time. Thus we get a reading of the text that is "SUPPOSEDLY" speaking about an end time falling away or DEPARTURE of the Faith when nowhere in the whole passage is FAITH ever spoken about. But a GATHERING unto Jesus is spoken about in the very first verse, so the DEPARTURE indeed happens before the Day of the Lord God's Wrath falls, and the Anti-Christ arrives on the scene also BEFORE the Day of the Lord because he (A.C.) makes a 7 year deal, so he is making agreements for 3.5 years before the WRATH FALLS (DOTL) which is what the Thessalonians FEARED they were in, so yes, the DEPARTURE of the Church AND the Anti-Christ both show up BEFORE the Day of God's Wrath Falls. If you chose to believe some English translators and the King of England over Paul and God's words/texts, so be it. By reading the bible in full the Pre Trib Rapture is obvious. its not even a debate. Yet you will not accept these facts as presented because it doesn't fit your narrative brother. REMEMBER, the Pharisees could see nowhere in the bible where Jesus was spoken about, but it was there, sometime things are not so clear brother, so get off of preconceived ideas. Israel and their leaders just knew Rome was the Fourth Beast, they just knew a Political Leader (Messiah) was coming to save them, but they were in error, the End Time Beast is actually the Little Horn who ARISES out of Rome's head (Europe) and they missed that also.

Hartono said: The foolish virgins left behind are the picture of christians without OIL and will be married to the antichrist frankenstein who recovered from deadly wound, the kind who beats his bride black and blue for 7 years before the wedding. The Rapture is Pre Trib, we are in agreement, but the 5 Virgins do not Marry the Beast PER SE. They are just left behind because they are too worldly, most I assume thus REPENT, or at least many do, and become the Martyrs seen under the 5th Seal, and are those who Refused the Mark of the Beast in Rev. 20:4 and thus serve with Jesus on this earth for 1000 years. So, lets don't assume all turn to Satan brother. The truth is they are more apt to repent having known the Lord than many others, and we know there are both Gentile Martyrs and Saints of God on earth, as a matter of fact the Jews flee unto the Mountains where God Himself protects them for 1260 days so literally all Martyrs have to be Gentiles not taken in the Rapture. 5 0f 10 Virgin brides make the Wedding and in Matt. 24:36-51 we see ONE is taken and that ONE is left. Both add up to a 50 percent ratio. Edited July 7, 2022 by Revelation Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
