Biblical prophecy claims the Rapture is coming April 23, numerologist says

[PostmodernProphet]

The Rapture is only about 150 years old.. It comes from the Brethern or Darbyites and is based on the dream of a teenaged girl.

well this part is a bit older than 150 years....


Thess 4:16 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.
17 After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever.

[PostmodernProphet]

Bible is a good doorstop.

/shrugs.....so is your brain.....

In fact, every Christian today should assume that the world's end is going occur within their own lifetime -- because for a great many of us it probably will.

The 'night' Jesus predicted for the world should now be very close to us.

That year, of course, by fulfilling all the warnings Jesus gave to the Jews, marks a very significant moment in God's victory on earth.


Only conversion, faith and prayer can reverse this process.

Most scholars think that was added to Paul's writings later because the writing is so different.

The seven plagues of Revelation 16 are a very accurate description of several notable events throughout the course of the Jewish War. The pouring out of the seven bowls of Revelation 16 is a reflection of the pouring out of drink offerings during Pentecost.

During Pentecost in A.D. 66, Josephus and Tacitus record what appears to be the departure from the Temple of the seven angels with the seven bowls. Immediately thereafter, the Jewish War began.

Cool! An "Air Lord". I though that was Michael Jordan.

Jesus was not talking about the end of the world.. it was the end of an age or the end of the world as they knew it.. The end of animal sacrifice and temple Judaism.. Enter Rabbinical Judaism.

Says the man who curses and didn’t know that Luke was a companion of Paul, your knowledge of theology sucks.

You are a poor representation of the religion and beliefs you claim to know more about than an atheist. Jesus would be disappointed in you. tsk tsk

LOLOL. So much of it is explained historically.


When the Romans arrived in Jerusalem in A.D. 70, Roman catapults hurled boulders into the city.

These stones were white and weighed about one hundred pounds as predicted in Revelation 16: 21: “From the sky huge hailstones of about a hundred pounds each fell upon men.”

He claims otherwise, but his divinity degree is from the 70’s and it must have been from a Trumplike university.

Maybe Moody Institute or Dallas Theological Seminary?

He certainly didn't attend a really good divinity school.
