??? what did i say here that is wrong? God says "do not add to his words, if we do He will rebuke us as a liar"
Do you want that?
Can you see that God is reaching out to you and all of us here? = Do not add to His Words
Do you not realize that 'adding to and taking away from Scripture is sin?
Christians, in today's world, have been led down a path of opinions - and treat God's Word as = anything goes based on how they see it.

NO, you have not proven the Pretrib Position is a lie, and your 37 years are irrelevant, just like my credentialing in my denomination and the 40 years since my salvation. $1000 huh LOL first off the term Rapture is from a Latin translation and just like the word Trinity is not in the word of God the concept is.
I am sure you stand by YOUR word
, again you fail to read what others have said and did not address the teaching of the Church of "Sonn Coming" at any moment. There really is nothing preventing Jesus from coming at any moment is there? Unless you know better than the Father?
again I am not going to address it again for you. IF there was nothing wrong in your comments as you used the word of God why did you have an issue with what was said to you in the same manner? YOu cried about a red x and said those here were mocking and scoffing but the term Pretriber you know is a scoffing term which you standby. So let's just agree to disagree.
well it is certainly Good for us to laugh together - i love it.
But (lol x10) you added this opinion to His Word = "BEFORE the Tribulation begins"
Brother and Friend - He did not say that, neither can you post a Scripture that does.
Pre-trib can only be propped up by 'adding to and taking away' from Scripture.
Now, since you and i are close - i can say this to you and you will not take offense = man up to God and reject men's opinions.
Tribulation in the world began in the Garden and will build unto His Second Coming.

2 Timothy 2:15 -
Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
Pre-tribber is not scoffing - it gives a CLEAR understanding of sin and division in the body of Christ.
You are more focused on hate then Truth.
We are to hate falsehood and to love Truth and one another.
Why such hate?
How does an idol stand in the fellowship in Christ?
Why are you not searching for the Truth? the First Resurrection is mentioned in 1 Thess ch 4 and Revelation
There is no rapture BEFORE the First Resurrection.

The fact of the Rapture was first revealed by Christ to His disciples in John 14:1-3. It is most clearly presented in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 which encourages living Christians that, at the Rapture, they will be reunited with those who have died in Christ before them.
In verse 17 the English phrase “caught up” (NASB) translates the Greek word harpazõ, which means “to seize upon with force” or “to snatch up.” This is the Greek word from which the English word “harpoon” is derived. The Latin translators of the Bible used the word rapere, the root of the English term rapture.
A debate swirls around when this takes place relative to the Tribulation.
At the Rapture, living believers will be “caught up” in the air, translated into the clouds, in a moment of time.
An interesting tie between the revelation of the rapture by our Lord in John 14:1-3 and Paul’s expansion in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
there are many terms to describe this event:
“translation or resurrection coming” (1 Cor. 15:51-52; 1 Thess. 4:15-17) in which the Lord comes for His church, taking her to His Father’s house (John 14:3). On the other hand, Christ’s Second Advent with His saints (the Church=Rev. 19)
I have provided scripture as to why one can support the teaching of a Pretrib Rapture. There is also scripture to support a mid-trib Rapture too. Please read before you "Pop-off " and say something you will regret.

The SAME Lord JESUS said this in John chapter 17 - in the world you will have tribulation, be of good cheer (our hearts) for I have overcome the world.
Do not add to or take away from God's Word as you just did in the Gospel of John.
Fear God and not man dear brother. If you fear man you will sin against God.

I am not right because I am saying, it is right because the word of God says it.
I have not taken away

You worship a idol called pre-trib rapture.
Neither are you willing to humble yourself before the Word so that you can see.
This is why you hate me - because i do not follow men's opinions which are popular and rampant in christianity today.

JESUS says to you CV1 = "in the world you WILL HAVE TRIBULATION, be of Good Cheer for I have Overcome the world - John 17
Now i will say this to you 'by the word of the Lord' - repent from pride and adding to and taking away from His Word.
