I see you're still avoiding the question.



The day AFTER the tribulation is not the last day. Get it through your knuckle head, the post-tribulation rapture falls on the first day of the millennium.

Only with Riberra can we get boring and dumb debates.
Your usual insults...used as diversion. I am immunized against insults.
I was only quoting your dumb claim.

You have still not showed when the LAST DAY will be...based on your claim the LAST day will be BEFORE the tribulation is that right ?

The Coming of Jesus will be the LAST DAY of the tribulation

Matthew 24:29-30 New King James Version (NKJV)
29 “Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 30 Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

Your false teaching DEBUNKED!

You can't make a request while avoiding a request yourself. Try answering my question first before asking your question.

You are the one who have made the claim.You have to explain your definition of LAST DAY.

The question can be stated I suppose whether the coming of the Lord for His Church needs to be preceded by other events in Scripture; personally I don't see what has to come before the coming at the end of 1 Thessalonians 4.

Do you think all the prophecies that have to happen before Jesus's second coming have already been fulfilled?

Well, no; there are things in Revelation that have not yet happened; but the church is looking for the Saviour's coming for the church (1 Thess. 4.16-17), rather than for signs and wonders.

The gathering of the surviving church is after the resurrection (1 Thessalonians 4:15-17) and the first resurrection (the resurrection of the dead in Christ) includes the Tribulation martyrs (Revelation 20:4-6). The gathering is also after the apostasy and the revealing of the man of sin who sets himself up to be worshipped as if he were God (2 Thessalonians 2:1-4). Pre-Tribulation rapture is a very popular fantasy (such as 2 Timothy 4:3-4) that will set a person up to be deceived by false returns of Christ (Matthew 24:23-26, Luke 17:22-23), among other deceptions.

I'm not going to argue; but I believe I am looking for the coming in 1 Thess.4.16-17. No point in me arguing, really.

He was referring to the things that had to be fulfilled before Jesus returns.

Well, I see Zero things (in terms of the aspect of His coming for the church, as opposed to the aspect in power and glory on earth) but we don't need to argue.

We may not know the hour or day but we can have a good idea if we are a serious Christian. I have a good idea when the Rapture will occur according to current events. There was another poster on the thread who time frame of the Rapture was identical to mine. This is one issue that I keep to myself since there are other beliefs when the Rapture will occur. It is also amazing that many Christians confuse the Rapture with the Second Coming. I have learned over the years since becoming a Christian that many Christians have not read the NT (every page) thoroughly and with fiery passion. You cannot read the Bible as though it is just another secular book like Huckleberry Finn.

With this perspective (that the rapture and the second coming are completely separate events), you are generally among the majority. The Bible says the majority will reject sound doctrine and gather for themselves an abundance of teachers who teach what they want to hear (2 Timothy 4:3-4). What is actually amazing to me is that so many Christians divorce the gathering from the Second Coming when Scripture puts them together (e.g., Matthew 24:29-31, 2 Thessalonians 2:1-4, 1 Thessalonians 4:14-17, etc.).

Apparently, you have your own belief and I will respect it ... but I don't agree with you.

I see you still passed on answering the question. You seem to be pretty bad at dodging a simple question with your strawman..
No. I didn't dodge anything. Answer that question yourself by explaining why you wear clothes!

We have two ebedmelech on CF.

I know this because yesterday ebedmelech #1 claims the first resurrection is spiritual involving one being born again.

Yesterday ebedmelech #1 wrotes:

The first resurrection is spiritual! Jesus made that clear to Nicodemus in John 3:1-15.

Jesus defined it when He spoke before raising Lazarus from the dead...read carefully...John 11:25, 26 as Jesus responded to Martha:

25 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in Me will live even if he dies,
26 and everyone who lives and believes in Me will never die. Do you believe this?”



Today ebedmelech #2 writes:

"That Spirtual reality will manifest itself in the physical ressurection to come."

.
Now there can be absolutely no way ebedmelech just realized he was wrong after digging for information on the 1st and 2nd resurrection on google last night and realized the 1st resurrection is a physical resurrection from all the websites he visited and feels the embarrassment to cover up his error by changing his stance and posting a link.

This definitely didn't happen right eb? It's ok, you can deny it, nobody reads this stuff anyways..
I'll simply leave this with you Psalm3704 because you simply can't see the concept of the many ways scripture communicates salvation.

That being the case you'll never get it...at least not at this point.
