One of the threads I have read and was surprised when she said she was scared because she might not be strong infront of the beast and takes his mark?

Guys its a very important thing to Know that all the Christians who lived faithfully by Gods promises and beared till the end wont be on earth when the beast falls on earth cause we will all be with God at the time because he said


"I Thessalonians 4:16-17 "For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord."


Meaning that all who believed in God and were saved will Be happily with God , only who will stay for the beast are the evil.:)

You understand that's not going to happen until the man of sin is revealed right?

2 Thessalonians 2:1-6

King James Version (KJV)

2 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,
2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.
3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?
6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.

People often based mixing between the rapture and the second coming of Christ. In some cases, it is difficult to distinguish whether the Bible refers to the rapture or the return of the Messiah. But when in-depth study of what the Bible says about the end of days, it is important to make sure that the book refers to him.



The rapture will happen when Christ returns to take away the church (community of believers) from the ground. And we find the description of this event in First Thessalonians 13:4-18 and I Corinthians 50:15-54. Valmamnin who died will be held their bodies, and will meet with believers neighborhoods to meet the Lord on the clouds. And it will happen in a moment and eye Gdma. While the second coming of Christ will occur even conquers the Antichrist and destroys evil, and also to establish a millennial kingdom. We find description of the second coming in Revelation 11:19-16.


Significant differences between the rapture and the second coming is as follows:

(1) In Rapture, believers will meet the Lord on the clouds (Thessalonians 17:4). But in the second coming, believers will return to Earth with the Lord (Revelation 14:19).

2) Second Coming will happen after the Great Tribulation (Revelation chapter 6-19). While happen kidnapping before narrow (Thessalonians 9:5 and Revelation 10:3)

(3) the rapture is the removal of believers from the earth to Vdaúhm (Thessalonians 13:4-17 and 9:5). While disarming others when the Second Coming of their punishment (Matthew 40:24-41).

(4) the rapture will happen quickly and in a way that "secret" (I Corinthians 50:15-54). While it would be the second coming of Christ publicly for all (Revelation 7:1 and Matthew 29:24-30).

(5) the second coming of Christ will occur after achieving other events (II Thessalonians 4:2 and Matthew 15:24-30 and Revelation chapters 6-18). While rapture may occur in any time and place (Titus 13:2 and Thessalonians 13:4-18 and I Corinthians 50:15-54).


So believers wont meet the beast , only unbelievers its all written in the bible , just see the scriptures and you will know.:D

looly, your original thread is good! This type thread always births a doctrinal argument of pre-trib vs. post-trib. I believe waht I do on these issues because of much study of the Word in the original Greek. HOWEVER, I'm not into the argument, simply because when the time comes to see who is correct, I will not be here to see. I will be with Jesus. Isn't this fun?
