I think you just have so much hatred towards pretrib rapture even if someone proved it to you in the bible you wouldn't believe it because you are so against it. Yesterday you almost made a point until you suggested I studied into IT.. Now I have studied into it and it only affirmed my belief.
Let's play connect the dots!
Matthew 24
40 Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left.
41 Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left.
(note that does not say killed, that is just speculation with no evidence. It clearly says TAKEN.. Taken where? To be with Jesus!)
1 Thessalonians 4
13 But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope.
14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus.
15 For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep.
16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.
17 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.
18 Therefore comfort one another with these words.
(So those who will be TAKEN UP.. Will be with the Lord Hence Matt 24:40-41 "TAKEN UP.. Paul just says CAUGHT UP"... It says COMFORT one another with these words..Not you will have to endure the great tribulation but you will NOT endure the great tribulation the Lord has already assured us of that!)
Luke 21 (Note this is AFTER Yeshua talks about the great tribulation you can read the whole chapter for context if you'd like but I want to point out a few key words)
34 “But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day come on you unexpectedly.
35 For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth.
36 Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.”
37 And in the daytime He was teaching in the temple, but at night He went out and stayed on the mountain called Olivet.
38 Then early in the morning all the people came to Him in the temple to hear Him.
(So we will ESCAPE these things .. What things? The great tribulation.. We will be "caught up" (as Paul says) or "taken up" (As Yeshua says).. We will be in the clouds and escape from these things.. Are there anymore Scriptures to let us know we will NOT endure the tribulation? Sure!!)
Revelation 3
7 “And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write,
‘These things says He who is holy, He who is true, “He who has the key of David, He who opens and no one shuts, and shuts and no one opens”:
8 “I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name.
9 Indeed I will make those of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews and are not, but lie—indeed I will make them come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you.
10 Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.
11 Behold, I am coming quickly! Hold fast what you have, that no one may take your crown.
12 He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall go out no more. I will write on him the name of My God and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God. And I will write on him My new name.
13 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”’
(So... AGAIN we have the PROMISE from Yeshua Himself we will be "KEPT FROM THE HOUR OF TRAIL WHICH SHALL COME UPON THE WHOLE WORLD" And some people are calling Yeshua a liar and saying Yeshua is preaching a false doctrine.)
So... What do we do? Believe man's lies saying we will endure the great tribulation or believe Yeshua?
