The Bride of Christ

I know your request is really in jest, but just so you can't accuse me of not answering your question I will give you one. Read some Watchman Nee stuff. You can find his stuff online and free to read there.

By the way I don't agree with "all" of what he teaches, but he does have an understanding between the difference in the salvation of the spirit and the soul.

 

www.inthebeginning.org has much of it online by Govett, Nee, etc.

Tozer is available online.

www.hopeofglory.net will give you access to hundreds of mp3's, both past and present.

If you want a copy of the writings of AE Wilson, let me know and I'll post it for you.

Go to http://www.schoettlepublishing.com/ and click on the "books online" tab at the top, and you can get many free books online.

Here's a direct link for S. S. Craig's "Dualism of Eternal Life": http://www.schoettlepublishing.com/booksonline/craig/eternallife.htm

 

here is another reference.

Paul -

Gal 1:6-11 there is only ONE Gospel.

Romans 6:23 the wages of sin is "death".

John

Rev 20 - the SECOND death is the reward of those not raised in the FIRST resurrection (for "The dead in Christ rise FIRST" -- 1Thess 4).

in Christ,

My denomination is "postTrib" but does not subscribe to the "high bounce" doctrine of other post trib groups that claim that God simply bounces the saints at the second coming -- high up in the air to watch them land again.

Rather we go with the John 14 doctrine that Christ comes to TAKE the saints to the heavenly home that He has been preparing for them that "WHERE He is THERE the saints may be also". Heaven is where the Marriage supper takes place.

That post-trib rapture is the 1Thess 4 event -- it is the FIRST resurrection where the "Dead in Christ rise FIRST" and are taken along with the living saints to heaven just as Christ promised.

After the 1000 years are completed - that New Jerusalem filled with the saints comes down out of heaven from God.

in Christ,

Bob

 

1. The church is not appointed for God's wrath - and God's wrath does not fall on them just as the plagues did not fall on Israel in Egypt - but after the plagues fell - Israel walked out of Egypt. It is the same sequence that we see in Matt 24 - after the great tribulation Christ comes to rapture the church.

However the church has ALREADY gone through over a THOUSAND years of persecution - too late to claim that the church will not be severely persecuted. In fact it is still going on.

2. No such thing as "seven years of tribulation"

3. 2Thess 2:7 does not say "the church will be taken out of the way".

See - there is not as much separating our views as you thought! ("High Bounce" -- I just now made that one up)

in Christ,

Bob
