when we are changed, it is from flesh to spirit....
there is no flesh at all in the Kingdom of God, 1Cor15....can't happen, so rethink your understaning...
when Christ comes, all flesh is changed to spirit.

I never said that He is only Spirit. He is God!!!! He was flesh for a little while, but He is not flesh now, because He is in heaven and Jesus is in heaven right? 1Cor151 cor 15:50 flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God...
This is where a glorified Christ shows up and explains His new fleshly body.
so, flesh cannot enter the kingdom of heaven, yet you think JESUS has a flesh body? that is sick, u thinking that Christ not in His Kingdom
No flesh at Christ's arrival....all spirit beings are as the angels.
Luke 24:39 Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones , as ye see me have...
transfigured is not gorified....can't kill a glorified being.
no blood.... still as 1 thes 5:23 body, soul and spirit.... but the spirit is dominant after glorification as right now the soul is dominant
no flesh at all after Christ returns...All still have a body, but not a flesh one. That turns to dust forever. All get a spiritual/celestial/heavenly body that has no flesh, no pain, no age, no death
unless God throws one in the lake of fire.
To say that Jesus Christ is only spirit .... defines you as a antichrist 2 jn 7

it is not antiChrist to think that Jesus will come back but not in a flesh body....
He will come, but in a spiritual body....as He is in heaven today. Very physical as all dead and angels are, but not flesh, just as all angels and dead are not!
to say that Jesus is coming BACK in the flesh defies the whole chapter of 1Cor15, and much more....
and what defines you as an antiChrist would be if you say, Jesus DID NOT COME IN THE PAST as a man(first advent)....or in the flesh. That would be antiChrist...
not what I say, which is the truth...
you should be ashamed of that statement!!! How many times have we spoken of Christ's ministry....Of course I believe He came in the flesh...but that doesn't mean that I have to believe tat He is still in the flesh now? That is ludicrous(crazy even)
Christ will come again, and on that day, all flesh shall change to be like He is, which is not flesh because flesh cannot be in heaven. And Christ is in heaven right ABIC?
simple logic.

flesh is flesh. Jesus walked through walls. He was not flesh. He was changed, but not into flesh....He was changed from flesh. We shall be like the angels, do you suppose that they are flesh as well?already answered this with scripture
no blood in are fleshy body

you did not answer this with scripture.
1Jo 3:2Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when he appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.
Our bodies will be raised and changed to be like His body. It will be a body built for eternity to live in the presence of God.
Read Ez 13 and stop teaching that we flyJohn 20:24-29
Here Jesus is glorified and they touch His flesh
notice in John 20:17 tells them to touch not yet....
His transfigured body, not the final state.
Amen
When this happens we in Flesh fly... different limitations than now! 1 thes 4:16-18

so explain 1 thes 4:16-17
I will
OT saint are looking forward to getting eternal life 75 days after the 2nd coming ... Dan 12:2,11-12
Saints are Saints....Christ went to all that were dead and offered the same oppertunity that we have. So the dead in Christ include the OT Prophets.
Dainiel is not said to be raised 75 days after. Just that there is a blessing in waiting....
remember that I have said in the past that the length of time has been shortened according to Mar13. And the length that it was shortened to is told in Rev 9. 150 days. That is one of the reasons that it shall be like in the days of Noah.
Satan arrives at the 1/2 way point of the hour of temptation, that you assume is still 7 years cut in half. It is not that long anymore.
As in the flood of Noah, the waters prevailed 150 days...
The end time tribulation will be the same length of time.
And like in Daniel, the time is divided in two.
the first half (75 days) is ruled by the kings of the earth in the NWO system. Satan controls the events from the spiritual world but is still waring in heaven.
the second half (75 days) starts with Satan being cast from heaven to the earth to play act Jesus.
if one is faithful to the true Jesus and waits the 75 days until He arrives, that would mean that the person is elect because they were not fooled by Satan's flood of lies.
there is your 75 days. it is the midst of the week.....it is when the church becomes apostate. There is no pre trib Gathering to Christ.
NT saints can be change in a moment and is a mystery that God did not tell anyone till Paul... Eph 3:2,9
the "at any moment" doctrine is false. that is not true. There is much prophesy still to go. Christ does not return till the 2nd Advent. the apostasy and the son of perdition must be revealed before the Gathering to Christ.
the "mystery" of Eph3:9 is not pre trib rapture, but that the gentiles should be joint heirs.....defined in verse 6....receive the promises of God as the Israelites
Mystery defined.. Romans 16:25-26, eph 3:9-10, col 1:26
wrong
Rom 16:25-26 is defined in verse 20. the elect shall bruise Satan under their feet. Not even close here ABIC.
Col1:26 is defined in verse 27...again the gentiles have the promise that was thought to be reserved for only the Jew. Christ.
Rapture is a mystery .... 1 cor 15:51-54 given only to the Church
the mystery is not the Gathering to Christ, but rather the fact that "we shalll not all die, but be changed" at the Last trump.
Jews promised the Earth.. Matt 5:5
meek does not represent the Jews, but ALL the overcomers. Maybe some will be Jewish!!!
Church ...Gal 3:28....
what I see here is that we are all the same in God's eyes....is that the right scripture you meant?
Phil 3:20-21 promised the heavens
well, we shall all have a body like His, whether we be dead in Christ, or alive and remain until He comes back at the 2nd Advent. 1Cor15. they are talking about the fact that we are to believe that He shall come back. No time frame given...
Part of Christ now... 1 cor 12:12-13
no division between Jew and gentile...no rapture there.
God wrath goes upon earth dwellers... Not himself
Hey, think what you want. I am just glad that there are many Christians who do not believe in the pre-trib rapture so that they are better prepared in case they are alive at the time the antichrist comes to power. Best be prepared and have some knowledge of this rather than not realizing the antichrist is there because these Christians think it can't be him because they're still on Earth.If you want to talk about history supporting the idea that the rapture is a dangerous doctrine, then you need to know what you are talking about.
The majority of early church fathers would have embraced what we called a "post tribulation rapture", that is, that they would be caught up at the same time as the second advent of Christ, making them one and the same event. The problem is that, the majority also thought that they were in the tribulation. Therefore, Christ's return could be viewed as imminent, since He would come at the end of the trib. So the early church believed that Christ could come at any time.
Now, it could be argued that the apostle Paul did not embrace the idea that they were in the "great tribulation", since he says in 2 Thess that unless the apostasy and man of lawlessness had been revealed, then they are not in the Day of the Lord. But it is very true that they held that Christ could come back at any time. This was the "blessed hope".
So here's what I'm getting at. Posttribulationists like to argue that they hold the belief that was held by the early church fathers, so they have historical support. Now this is only true if you are Amillennialist Post-tribulational. If you hold to the Premillennial Post-tribualtional view, then you must deny the imminent return of Christ. This means premil posttribbers deny what the early church believed and had hope in - that Christ could come for them at any time.
This is surely a support for pretribulationism. While the early church fathers weren't pretribulationists, we believe they were mistaken about being in the tribulation. It can also be expressed that Paul didn't think they were in the trib, so the Apostles didn't believe that they were in the trib, only the later Church fathers. But all believed in the imminent return of Christ, which is what pretribulationism teaches, that Christ can come for His church at any time.
History definitely is a support, for a few reasons. They had access to the original or second hand manuscripts which would have been more accurate than ours, plus they would have been fluent in koine greek. This means the plain understanding of the text would have been very easy for them. It is definitely beneficial to look back on what the early church fathers believed.
So that is a point against future post tribulationism, to those that believe in a literal future 7 year trib (the position of Geroge E Ladd and Robert Gundry). The imminent return of Christ for His church is a MUST.
