This thread is for dispensationalists.
Regarding the post attempting to discount the rapture as a myth, the argument presented contains compounded errors in understanding the timelines provided in Scripture.
It is truly consistent that the 2nd Coming occurs after the Rapture, but this doesn’t necessitate the return of the saints occurs prior to the Tribulation.
Most likely the consistent timeline allows for the Church to be prepared for the Wedding Feast in Heaven concurrent with the Tribulation.
At the close of the Church Age, we simply observe in God’s Prophetic timeline that at some point in the future the indwelling of God the Holy Spirit in each member of the Body of Christ will change by His Will. His work in us at that time will have been completed.
We will continue to live in fellowship with Him as His Bride, but God the Holy Spirit’s indwelling will shift to the Jew during the Millennium, as opposed to the Gentile.
The reading also suggests a mistaken understanding of martyrdom, focusing upon suffering instead upon a perseverant witness of Christ.
Thank you. The "dispensational caucus" thread is, I think, the only one that is such a threat that the FR rules on caucuses consistently get violated when one is posted.
attempting to discount the rapture as a myth
I don't know why, but it never fails to astound me how easily and effortlessly human beings will just state without blinking an eyelash that God lies.
If I live to be three hundred years old I will never understand that.
