Re: The Rapture
Good study, It required me to think, I have only a few questions how do you see these if The chosen are gone before the trib.Mat 24:21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
Mat 24:22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
Rev 7:13 And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they?
Rev 7:14 And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
ev 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
who are these if they arn't here during the trib,
when we try to transalate english words,back to greek, hebrew or latin, we sometimes end up with something compleatly different. we end up traslating a translation, know what i mean.
This is not to debunk your study i just wanted your take on these. I assure you i don't know whether we will be here during the trib or not. but i do beleive in Jesus and his word he said it will come and it will. with or with out us,
God bless you and your household; rodney nicholas
