‘If God is who He says He is...then He is incapable of lying...to deny the “rapture” and to claim Nero the antichrist....is saying the scriptures are not true.’

On the other hand, it might be just saying that a reading of the 2Thess passage and the Apocalypse that did not exist before the early 19th century Plymouth Brethren intererpretations popularized by John Darby caught on in Britain and the USA is not true.

It may be because it is so early in the morning...but this doesn’t make sense to me...could you rephrase it?

Bump. Good to see some good data finally reappearing. I grew up believing in the Rapture, as according to pastors who would advocate the ‘Left Behind’ books.
