Aki,
You do really need a solid evidence verses find anywhere in the Bible teaching there are two phases of the second coming.
There is no difference between rapture and revelation.
1 Peter 1:13 tells us, we must be stand and holdfast and be blameless life till at the revelation of Jesus Christ. Revelation is same as coming.
Word, 'rapture' is not find anywhere in the Bible. It is "caught up" in 1 Thess 4:17. Actually, rapture goes include harvest time same time. Rapture is also include gathering together at Lord's coming.
No question, rapture is same as harvest at the end of the world in Matthew 13:28-30; 39-42; 49-50; Matt. 25:31-46; Rev. 14:14-20.
Also, the Bible teaches us there shall be the only ONE harvest at the end of the world. I do not see three harvests anywhere in the Bible.
Pretrib believes there are three harvests: #1 Harvest for the Church at rapture before trib. #2 Harvest of the world at Christ's coming after tribulation. #3 Another harvest of the world after the millennium.
That doctrine is so very flaw.
Matthew chapter 13 and Matthew 25:31-46 both teaching us very clear there shall be the only ONE harvest at the end of the world WHEN Christ shall come with His angels. It is so very simple and clear.
Please prove me verses in the Bible, how do you know, there are two phases of the second coming.
In Christ
Rev. 22:20 - Amen!

3. Second Advent of Jesus event
4. literal MK=millinnial kingdom
5. new heaven & new earth
Postrib pre-mill outline:
0. church age continues <-- you are here
2. Tribulation time
1.3. Second Advent of Jesus event
(this is one event with the rapture/resurrection)
4. literal MK=millinnial kingdom
5. new heaven & new earth
Postrib a-mill outline:
0. church age continues - is the same as: <-- you are here
2. Tribulation time - is the same as: <-- you are here
4. spiritual MK=millinnial kingdom <-- you are here
1.3. Second Advent of Jesus event
(this is one event with the rapture/resurrection)

Peterist a-mill outline:

Ed recommends the pretrib pre-mill
view as aligning most nearly with Holy Scripture.
Ed recommends:
get Rapture Ready!
Stay Rapture Ready!

Ed,
you saying the same thing repeat and repeat in your own outline. Tomorrow, I will reply back to you on this.
In Christ
Rev. 22:20 - Amen! -
These are two distinct events pictured around the Tribulation. The Rapture occurs before the Tribulation, when those who have passed on and those who ramain alive in the Lord are taken up.
-
Would you have them continue to think we
are all on the same page here when we
are on near a dozen different pages.
And even then, the pre-tribs don't all
agree on details.
-
I can support the pretrib position by the use of all the N.T. teaching. It isn't about a verse here and there like you amills do. We prefer to take all relevant texts and examine them.
For example, John 14:1-3 and Matthew 24:27-32 are completely incompatible if you make them the same event. Go ahead, the best posttribbers alive can't do it. I would be curious to see your spin. -
I had a dachshund (the best possible dog btw). My grandpa had a chow. We had a similar animal, but it wasn't the same.
I have a Ford Taurus. My friend has a Ford F150.
Again, similar vehicles but not the same.
You do understand, right? -
-
Oh. Thank you David Daniel.
That is so simple, it might be right.
Comic relief:
Question: How many Mystics does
it take to change a lightbulb?
Answer: Purple :eek:
(note to the humor impaired.
Christian mystics try to resolve all
scriptures with a spiritual meaning
/rather than the occasional physical
meaning/. So i guess it takes a
mystic to really understand the above
"joke". For the rest of us we are
content to realize that to a mysic
it makes some higher sense, which we
common ordinatry humans cannot
hope to ever understand, in this age
or in the next.)
-
Ed,
I promise I will reply back to you, when my computer is fixed.
In Christ
Rev. 22:20 - Amen! -
As always, i lift you up daily to the Lord
that you might have a good success and
lots of good blessings. So now i'll mention
you need a fixed computer.
