Well, I guess being a nanny, is better than being a ninny.
and BTW, is this thread serving any useful purpose?
Why of course! This thread has a great potential for being quite the edificatory thread of this forum! And yes, while this threads edification shows itself in primarily a temporally beneficial focus (i.e. furthering one's standing in good Christian competative spirit), the spiritual ramifications are immense! Consider the bonds of fellowship from which we all are strengthened when faced with the blatant hatred exhibited elsewhere. Consider the kindness and good humored friendships being supported. Consider "A joyful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones."[/b] Serving a purpose? I'd say yes.   So that explains why I find this much more enjoyable than fighting! Yup! Friendliness is much better than unfriendliness! Amen!! |

Well I wonder if I can catch up.
Only if you can run backwards heading South in a Northerly direction! No can do ollie..................... running forwards heading South in a Northerly direction, I can do.......... Watch out for Allinall and Sincereheart they are running forward in a backward cicular motion along the equator and the chances are greater for collision with you heading South forwards in a Northerly direction. And lets not forget you ollie. Running in a northern heaing but going south. Kaboom! |

Bronzesnake, I spent most of yesterday reading over the pre-trib Rapture by Paul........ It is very well done but missing a few points.
I stated earlier in my posts.
1st Corinthians 15:51-56
51 Lo ! I tell you a mystery. We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed. 52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. 55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? 56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. 57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Since this scripture is speaking on one of the mysteries of God (Rapture) and Paul says it will occur at the last trumpet. Where and when does this trumpet occur in the book of Revelation?
Paul doesn't say first, second, or third trumpet, but last, which is the seventh. The key words are LAST TRUMPET and MYSTERY. Remember, in the book of Revelation the last trumpet is the seventh.
If you do not agree that the last trumpet Paul spoke of is the same last trumpet in Revelation, then why did Paul associate the term last trumpet as a description for defining a period of time when rapture is to occur?
In verse 51 and 52 above we see the words Mystery, Last Trump and the word raised. Paul obviously is talking about a resurrection here of believers otherwise he would not use the word RAISED in respect to the dead. He is also talking about the end of the church age.

I have read the Bible 4 times. To me the hardest book to go through is Chronicles 1 and 2.
Why would you sit down and read it cover to cover more than once? It's not all equally relevent to where you are all of the time. Each time I read the Bible I get more out of it........ its kind of like afavorite book. You reread you learn more. But I don't read it back to back........ I allow some time to pass and start reading it again. |
