There is NO evidence for a pretrib resurrection/rapture. Yes, the CHRISTIAN CHURCH WILL be on earth during the Tribulation.
In fact, Rev 22:16 tells us WHY and to WHOM the book was written:
“I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star.”
Yet, creates a complete contradiction in the Bible.
The Bible teaches that there is ONE resurrection for the saved. Matt 22:30, Luke 14:14, Acts 24:15, 1 Cor 15:23
The Bible teaches that there is ONE resurrection for the unsaved. Acts 24:15
The Bible teaches that WHEN the singular resurrection of the saved will occur: "when He comes", which is 2nd Advent. 1 Cor 15:23
The Bible teaches plainly that the resurrection of Trib martyrs is the FIRST resurrection. Rev 20:4,5
The Bible teaches plainly that the "gathering up" of living believers for the resurrection is AFTER the Tribulation. 2 Thess 2:1-3
These are facts. Any supposed believer resurrection BEFORE the Trib contradicts all these fact.
Huh? What I posted is perfectly clear. Are you eyes and ears open or not?
I invite you to look up each citation that I included with each of the 5 facts and see for yourself if my facts align with the Bible or not.
I don't get your question. What do the 24 elders have to do with WHEN the singular resurrection will occur?
Rather, now is YOUR chance to prove that you know anything.
What's that old saying.......if you say a lie often enough people will believe it? I would say that holds true except in the case of born-again believing Christians.
Yep, you DID blow it, big time.
I ended my post with this:
"I've given 5 facts, all backed up with Scripture. You are invited to examine every citation listed with the 5 facts and prove me wrong if I am. You have claimed that my 5 facts don't make any sense. Can you prove that? Can you prove that my facts aren't facts?
My facts are clearly stated. I've given verses for every fact.
Please don't blow YOUR big chance."
Too bad. You had a great opportunity to prove me wrong. Instead, you make up stuff (LIE). How sad.
I gave you a legitimate challenge and you lowered yourself to lying.
If my 5 facts are not true, why didn't you prove it?
In fact, the stupid claim that I just keep lying only reveals what you think of Scripture itself, since I BACKED UP every fact with Scripture.
You could have easily proved me wrong by addressing the verses and showing how they didn't back up my facts.
You didn't because you CAN'T. And you know it. So you lied instead.
That's just wonderful.
