A Question for Christians

[Bubbles]

So hope fades away in his dream world and brownie is as much use as a one legged man in a bum kicking competition.

Only you would consider a bum kicking competition important enough to matter

No, only occasionally, as a last resort if someone really hacks me off.

This thread seems to have run it's course and the general point is the 1000 literal reign of Christ on Earth  is not found in scripture

Half of what passes for various versions of Christianity isn't found in scripture.

So no surprise, really.

The rapture for a start 

30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,

39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.

44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

So you do not believe when Christ returns the above will happen. You feel this is not biblical?

Two things are sure...

The Messiahs words are to be heeded.

Those words come to pass.

John 16:13King James Version (KJV)

13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

Daniel 12King James Version (KJV)

12:1. And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.
2. And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.

3. And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.

4. But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.

The rapture for a start 

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.   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. (from 1 Thessalonians 4)

caught up = Greek Harpazo = Latin Rapturo (hence rapture). It's there.

Rose may be referring to the pre-trib rapture, which often is known just as 'the rapture' but is not biblical. Originating from Christopher Ribera; preached by John Nelson Darby and Edward Irving and propagated by Cyrus Scofield who added it to the Scofield Bible.

Where are those who feed the Lords servants in due season?

King James Bible
Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?


When the time is right the LORD will make know his seasons and plans to his chosen.
