Tribulation Act 14:22 22 Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God. Jn 16:33 33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. Mat 13:21 21 Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended. Rom 5:3 3 And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulati

The point isn't to 'appear relevant', no Christian should be motivated by that sort of vanity. The point is to limit the discussion to the words that can be cross-referenced in the KJV. I'll admit to being coarse on purpose, to make a point, that the meaning of non-Biblical terms is unimportant and a side-track to the actual study of God's Word. If it is too much, then I apologize and will tone down my responses.

Awesome! Except "holies" isn't a word, in English. Holy is an adjective, it isn't expressed as singular or plural, it is modifying a noun or pronoun that would express number. Ex: He is holy They are holy Holy Place The most Holy Place The Holy Lands See? In English, the part of speech being modified carries the burden of expressing number. The same adjective, neutral in number, modifies both singular and plural nouns/pronouns. If correcting English causes division, it is dividing those who care about being correct from those who don't.

For what, paying attention in 5th grade English? But no shame on some woman, for trying to argue doctrine with men? No wonder our churches are a mess.

We are not appointed to wrath. So God will remove us from the Earth prior to pouring out His Wrath. This is where Dispensational Theory departs from Scripture. Mat 24:30-31 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. 31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. Rev 6:12-17 12 And I beheld when he had opened

Sorry I went over your education level here. 1.Concrete nouns 2.Abstract nouns 1.Persons, places, things 2.Ideas Maybe this simple chart will help. Rapture cant be a concrete noun, and anyone with an education can mock us for our use of it as one. We should care to be correct. The dead in Christ RISE first, so it is a resurrection. It is also the redemption of our bodies. It is not a feeling of euphoria.

So, you've never seen a parrot? Or, you possibly did, but couldn't discern it from a crow, cuz you aren't a parrot? The South called, they want their dufus back. Run along.

What's wrong with "resurrection"? It is a concrete noun. "Rapture" is an idea, like love, joy , peace, etc. It can't be used to mean an event, and God didn't use it to do so. Resurrection is an event, and God did use it. Stop me when I've said something wrong....

I'll use 'The Church of God' as an example: Those who teach that one cannot know that he is saved everlastingly, eternally, until death, are teaching a false gospel and are to be accursed.

Holy is an adjective. There can be no such thing as "Holies". Try using the Scripture, instead of parroting men. The Scripture calls it the "Most Holy Place". The Scripture doesn't use the word "rapture", which in English is an abstract and not a concrete noun, so it couldn't possibly be the name of an event. In fact, by definition, rapture is imagined. Satan has more than one trick up his bejewelled sleeve, and extra-Biblical terms is one of them. You've dashed your foot against a stumbling stone, and fallen into Rome's mire, Brother. Of course, I'll be ridiculed and chided for this

Oh, it seems you dont read the Scripture for yourself, or you would have seen this: 1Th 5:4-5 4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. 5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day:we are not of the night, nor of darkness. Apparently, you are just parroting others, and can't even read IThes 5- 2Thes 2, or you would know that only the lost will be surprised by this 'thief in the night'. Maybe many of the teachers, like Darby, weren't children of Light, who you parrot second hand. There is not one single hint towards a "P

Not rocket science. The tools you're being taught to study Greek with are corrupt. Tomorrow, if you haven't already purchased it, go into the church bookstore and pick up the college textbook on exegesis, go to nearly the end of the intro, and read that the editor used the NIV on cd, to enlighten the exegesis of the Greek of the TR (which no one actually owns a copy of anyways).

Walk into your Church bookstore, pick up the college textbook on exegesis, read the intro where the editor thanks Zondervan for the use of the NIV on CD to aid in his study. Then get back to me on "corrupt".

I noticed that you gave no Scripture to suport your "Jewish evangelist" theory. Could you?
