What you plan and what the reality will be, are vastly different.
My aim, in posting on this forum, is to warn people like you who have been taken in by teachers that you have trusted to teach the Biblical truths, but have not done so. They are those wolves in sheeps clothing that Paul warns us about.

Your Forum name implies that you have made a wise choice in what you believe.
But the 'rapture to heaven' theory is not a wise choice, it cannot be found in the Bible and that idea conflicts with what we are told of God's Plan for His people.
I have posted many threads, telling how we Christians will occupy all of the holy Land, being the people God always wanted there; His witnesses, Isaiah 43:10, John 15:27 and His Light to the nations; Isaiah 49:8, Matthew 5:14-16
THAT is our destiny and our great privilege!

If that is the meaning of interest, then God is not interested in anything at all. For He already knows everything there is to know, and is thus incapable of learning.

He knows everything, whether or not He wants to.

Aren't you gratified to know that He knows everything about you, but He doesn't want to know anything about you at all?

In other words, He isn't interested in you at all.

That's the outcome of your definition of "interest".

NO, that is the outcome of the false definition of "interest" that you posted, not me.

The dictionary definition says "wants to".

What's your definition and where can I find it?

I don't think you will see anyone that says the things that I say as to the comings of the Lord. I believe in a pretribulation rapture of the church (days of Noah) and a pre wrath rapture of the 12 tribes (days of Lot). I believe these things because they can be proven by the word of God. In other words..........I don't sit under any man and am not taught by any teacher. So no one has fooled me into believing anything. If it does not agree with the word of God, I pass. I believe that the feasts of God are a shadow of things to come......the barley harvest, the wheat harvest and the fruit harvest.

Your false definition is directly contrary Webster's Online Dictionary:

interest
Verb, | 'ɪntərɪst

:be on the mind of
:a reason for wanting something done in the interest of safety in the common interest
:be of importance or consequence
:a diversion that occupies one's time and thoughts (usually pleasantly) he counts reading among his interests

You will notice that wanting to learn or know about is not even mentioned.

It is to laugh.

Webster's definition is an even greater affirmation of mine, for he adds "be on the mind of".
Your claim is that because God knows all, he doesn't "want", i.e. is not "interested" to have, anything to be on His mind.
Just two of numerous Scriptures confirming that we are indeed on God's mind:

“For I know the thoughts I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.” Jeremiah 29:11.

“Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them. How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How great is the sum of them!” Psalm 139:16-17.

Webster further affirms my definition, with "wanting something done".
"Wanting something done" certainly includes "wanting to learn or know about", with "wanting" being the key word.
You claim is that God does not "want". But "want" is inherent in the meaning of "interest".

For anyone "interested", i.e. "wanting", to see classic risible "meaning mutilation", just ask a dispensationalist.

The hour is late where I am, but not too late for you to have easily elicited the guffaw du jour.

I am having trouble deciding whether this is a blatant lie or just your inability to comprehend even basic English. I did not state this as an opinion, but as the necessary result of the definition YOU posted. And when you first called it MY idea I pointed out that this was the necessary result of YOUR idea, NOT of MINE.

Heh heh...according to Jeremiah 29:11 and Psalms 139:16-17, you are on God's mind, and thus he is interested in you (per your Webster's definition of "interest" i.e. "be on the mind of").

Of course, if you don't think you need to be on His mind because He already knows all about you, you should ask Him to remove you from on His mind, and if you ask sincerely, He may grant your request.

Give it a try and let us know what happens.

Changing direction Mr DNA?

Aren't you glad that your salvation had nothing to do with your DNA, but only your faith in Christ?

Aren't you glad that no one's salvation has anything to do with their DNA, but only their faith in Christ?

That is Scripture's message about DNA.
