They will be in heaven, but maybe rewardless. Well, hallelujia, hope you are right. RND, you are NOT highjacking my thread, so go argue somewhere else. Actually, Revelation pegs the marriage supper of the Lamb as being after the seven year tribulation, when Christ returns to earth. The marriage of the Lamb takes place before that time. Nero, I think the return is the actual wedding. where does it say "pray that you be made worthy to escape the tribulation"? THat is Luke 21:36 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are the bride and that is when we feast with our Bridegroom! The rapture represents the Jewish way that was practiced where the groom goes and prepares a home for his bride and at a time unannounced, comes to get her. Immediately the marriage takes place and the feast begins! Amen! The second coming occurs when Jesus returns to earth physically along with us to fight that final battle! After the feast of the Lamb. Blessings! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were not born again. If that's what your Bible says, I'd go get a different and better version. This is backwards, because it was Christ that didn't know them, which sounds very hard to believe in itself. How can the creator not know one of His createes? So naturally, this verse means something else entirely different. It shows that they were not intimate with Christ, so they were either worldly or lukewarm believers.

Blessings! I absolutely believe that the rapture takes place the same way as the Jewish wedding traditions! Actually, my original post went more in depth about that very topic. I shortened it in a way that may have lead to misunderstanding (it was very late, and I was half asleep ) This is the progression: The Bridegroom returns for the Bride, at which time the marriage takes place. Then the Bride and Bridegroom are secluded together for SEVEN DAYS! After that time, they emerge and the time of feasting ensues. The feasting includes the "invited guests", who clearly cannot be the bride! They are those who accept Christ during the tribulation. OK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to read up on that some more, and think about that one! I have NEVER heard that before, and I have had some excellent teachers...

I'm not a former Jew, so I can only go by what I've read as far as Jewish traditions.
