A number of movies based on the idea of a future Rapture show crumpled clothes on a sidewalk or other places after the person disappears. This goes along with driver-less cars, pilot-less planes and so forth. This was done in the 2014 Left Behind movie with Nicholas Cage, for instance, and was...
I read this Christian article on the second coming and am confused about the following scriptures. They appear to be depicting the second coming as happening 2000 years ago? But surely this hasn't happened. So what is the current interpretation of this. Or has there been another thread on this...
Away in a manger,
No crib for His bed,
The little Lord Jesus
Laid down His sweet head
The stars in the bright sky
Looked down where He lay,
The little Lord Jesus
Asleep on the hay.
...
I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever
And love me I pray
Bless all the dear children
In Thy tender care...
Christ takes all the saints to heaven for 1000 years at the 2nd coming. -- "I will come again" John 14.
the 1000 years are literal -
But it is not where Christ reigns on Earth because Revelation 19 says all the wicked are killed when Christ comes again (second coming) - and John 14 says that...
Just to give a quick background to what follows next, let me state this:
God – Father, Son and Holy Spirit – created the world we live in. He created all human kind and all creatures on this earth in which he breathed the breath of life. So, this means that the Son, Jesus Christ, is God, he...
The doctrine of the premillennialism/dispensationalism is built based on a physical nation of Israel.
Matthew 24:32-33
[32] Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:
[33] So likewise ye, when ye shall see all...
Walk to Please God
1 Thessalonians 4:1-8 ESV
Finally, then, brothers, we ask and urge you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God, just as you are doing, that you do so more and more. For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord...
“knock and the door will be opened to you.”
Imagine this unprecedented event.
Christians, from all over the world,
united physically in congregations,
united virtually through technology,
united spiritually in the Holy Ghost,
praying together with a clear, unified intention: shortening...
As Christians, at least some of us are looking forward to the return of Jesus (call it Rapture, Second Coming or any other way and regardless the different interpretations of the intermediate events)
Now usually, we pray the Lord for good things that we would like in our lives because Jesus has...

Hello, I am a 19-year-old fellow Christian, and I have plenty of concerns regarding the Pre-Tribulation Rapture (PTR).
Scroll down for TL;DR.
Some of my favorite bible teachers, and preachers believe in the PTR. I never had a strong belief in it, but always kind of assumed it did exist, mostly...
so I'm sure everyone is aware of the hurricanes happening down south in America and the devastation that's left from everything else along with future events like tsunamis. I overhead classmates talking about the second coming of Christ as all the hurricanes and things may relate to...
So this will cover several areas on CF which is why I posted it in the GT forum.
When Jesus returns to the Earth as the conquering king, will he pardon the Jews that have not believed in him?
Meaning the Jews who are looking for their Messiah still but do not believe in Jesus as such, when...
So something fun to talk about is this idea that Jesus could actually come back in our lifetime.
I have read and considered the following, and note I do not claim to state the date of Jesus return, only something to discuss.
“But do not overlook this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one...
Jesus Will Descend Upon the Mt. of Olives.
The Bible doesn't actually say that. It says "...this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven." Ac 1:11 He will return in like manner, but not exactly identical in...
In 1Thess 4 we see a depiction of the second coming of Christ where the "Dead in Christ rise FIRST" - in what John calls "The FIRST resurrection" Rev 20:1-5.
Rev 20
4 Then I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was given to them. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded...

In Daniel 2 we read about king Nebuchadnezzar having a dream. In the dream Daniel interpreted it as follows. The king dreamed about a statue with a head of gold, chest and arms of silver, belly and thighs of brass, the legs were of iron, and the feet part iron part clay. Daniel prayed that the...
I had a dream. I won't tell the whole thing, unless you request that I do so. But one thing that stands out to me about the dream is that I was standing on the beach, it was sunny, the ocean was calm. Suddenly I had this realization that I was out there for hours, but I couldn't recall what I...
