After the vitriolic personal attacks by Theophilus in his post 557 to me which were similar but an additional step down in decency from yours I wouldn’t suggest you hold your breath. You boys can take your play dough interpretation of scripture and discuss it amongst yourselves.

478:

15 For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. (1 Thess. 4)
Which “coming of the Lord” is this? His First or His Second?

480

16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. (1 Thess. 4) Christ comes to the earth, at least into the atmosphere
(literally speaking). Where exactly in this passage is the great “About Face” of rapturism performed by Jesus?

TC -- you didn't get any answers at all to these?
