What do you think the words "last day" imply?
it is speaking about the last days of the jewish age aka the mosaic covenant.
No that's incorrect.
The verses I quoted do not say "last days" they say "last day"; their is no s at the end. Last day implies one singular day that will take place at the end of the age.
Here are the verses again in case you missed them:
John 6:39
And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
John 6:40
And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
John 6:44
No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.
John 6:54
Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.
John 11:24
Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.
John 12:48
He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.
are you telling me that the "last days" and "end of the age" are still ongoing for 2000 years now???
No, I'm not saying anything of the sort. Have you read my posts at all? I'm not talking about the "last days" plural; I'm talking about the last day, singular.
yes the resurrection on last day however
christ spoke to disciples in the last days hebrews 1:2
and christ appeared once in the end of the age to die for our sins hebrews 9:26
so the "last days" and the "end of the age" have been running for 2,000 years now.
that is twice as long as the jews have had a kingdom of one sort or another in the holy land between 1000 bce to 70 ad.
But again I'm not talking about the last days (plural); I'm talking about the last day (singular).
None of these verses refute a pre-trib rapture nor support another idea.
This is simple. Read 1 Thessalonians chapters 4 and 5 "For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ" and Matthew 24:----- Hey, I hate to do this,but I have to go to bed and will be very busy the next few days, so I'll link you to this webpage http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/End of the World/pretrib_proof.htm
"Delivered" can be taken different ways. Israel was "delivered" from the plagues in Egypt by staying in Goshen, and the final one (death of the firstborn) by applying blood to the doorposts and lintels. They were still there thru all of that; but were protected.1 Thessalonians 1:10 says, "And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come." Notice that it does not say 'delivered us from the penalty of sin' which is death and Hades. This 'wrath to come' is God's wrath that is to be poured out upon the Earth of which Paul says we are currently delivered from. This dispensation of God's wrath happens on the Great Day of The Lord (also known as the Tribulation period or the Time of Jacob's Trouble) of which, once again, he says we are delivered from.

The wrath to come is judgement, death, and hell.
Even if what you have said here were true then my point would still stand. Being delivered from judgment? Sure sounds like you wouldn't be here for the Tribulation.
Rahm- I think GracetotheHumble has made my point. You take "wrath" to mean the Tribulation, while he takes it to mean eternal judgement.
I don't think anyone can prove which is true (if either).
There is no such thing as a seven year tribulation, it is found no where in scripture. We have been in tribulation since Christ came.
The wrath to come is clearly eternity without Christ.

Have you not read the book of Revelation? The book that speaks of a seven year period of time time far worse than anything we as humanity have ever experienced before? Have you not read the book of Daniel? We are enduring tribulation, but we are not in The Tribulation.
You have to read the entirety of these two books to get it. Just open your Bible.I have read both Revelation and Daniel many times. No where in those books does it speak of a 7 year tribulation.
Please quote the scriptures where the bible speaks of a 7 year tribulation.

Refer to the edit on the previous post.Why can't you show me scriptures where a 7 year tribulation is mentioned? Oh, I know because it is a fable and there are none.
Edit: The reason I say this rather than throwing verses at you (beside the fact that it would be a large portion of Revelation and Daniel that would have to be quoted) is that you just don't agree. You will not agree because you believe you are right. I believe that God is right. I'd much rather you find the truth on your own through a personal revelation from the Holy Spirit than by me telling you outright lest you be turned from the truth.
