What does 'in like manner' mean in Acts 1:11

[Absolutely]

I think it’s just that your off subject a bit . If you start a pre trib rapture theead people will come argue with you about the timing of the “rapture. “

You got it backwards.
Since you look through a postrib rapture prism, you automatically think anyone without YOUR VIEWS is a " bit off subject."
Act 1.
" the Lord shall return in like manner"
Mirrors pretrib rapture IDENTICALLY.
...but is opposite what you are trying to MAKE it say.

Right on target ,to frame it pretrib rapture.
Exactly as is Mirrored BY GODS WORD.

This is a bit off subject but have you noticed why his robe will appear dipped in blood and how it is fore spoken in the law and prophets ?

“Judah is a lion's whelp: From the prey, my son, thou art gone up: He stooped down, he couched as a lion, And as an old lion; who shall rouse him up? The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, Nor a lawgiver from between his feet, Until Shiloh come; And unto him shall the gathering of the people be.

Binding his foal unto the vine, And his ass's colt unto the choice vine; He washed his garments in wine, And his clothes in the blood of grapes:”
‭‭Genesis‬ ‭49:9-11‬ ‭KJV‬‬


“And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.”
‭‭Revelation‬ ‭5:5‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the people there was none with me: for I will tread them in mine anger, and trample them in my fury; and their blood shall be sprinkled upon my garments, and I will stain all my raiment.”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭63:3‬ ‭KJV‬‬

“And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. …And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.”
‭‭Revelation‬ ‭19:13, 15‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Yes, I'm well aware of it. This vision was drawn from Isaiah 63. Almost 100% of the imagery in Revelation is originated in the old testament, mostly the prophecy books.

Visibly, bodily, with the clouds of heaven (Matt 24:30, Rev 1:7)

He doesn't know anything else. This is typical NPC mode, that wherever they go, whatever circumstance they're in, they keep babbling about the same thing.

Yes when He returns in a white horse is a different event, but acts 1:11 is before the white horse appears:

Zechariah 14:3 Then shall the Lord go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle.
4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.
5 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the Lord my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.

Matthew 24:16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:

Revelation 12:6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.

-When they saw the abomination of desolation, they fled to the mountains, were Jesus had descended "in like manner" upon the mount of olives, and divided it, to make a way of escape into the wilderness, were they were nourished during the 42 months:

Revelation 12:14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.

how many times do you expect Jesus is going to return? And do you think he’s actually going to ride a horse ? Or is that an image representing something established in prophecy and also revelation ?

What’s npc mode ? and yeah I think he’s confused and thinks people are arguing with him about the timing of the “ rapture “ .

I think I set it off when I quoted incidentally a verse clearly saying he will come immediately after the tribulation to gather his people, and thought the repetitive rapture Argument was on

NPC stands for Non-Player Character in RPG video games. They look like human players, but they are programmed with certain script and behaviors. Players can interact with them, but no matter what you ask, they can only reply with their programmed speech because that's all they know. This term is often used to mock the brain-washed, close minded stonewalling leftists who refuse to engage in any conversation by repeating the same talking points and throwing their books at you.

lol ok I would have never guessed npc.

yeah pre conceived ideas are an obstacle but we may all
Have some at some time I know I used to .

somehow humility comes and we realize we didn’t know much before we started letting the scripture teach us hopefully Many have that same experience in their life studies also

What does 'in like manner' mean in Acts 1:11, which reads:

"Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven. "

Jesus went up in a physical body.. He will return in a physical body..
