Why do you prescribe to the idea that if we as imperfect humans don’t fully understand scripture that we have to repent? At what point do we realize the error and say “oh my, I’m sorry Father for I have sinned?” As soon as someone comes along with a different view? No. These are difficult things to understand and not everyone learns or grows at the same rate. If one is living the Christian life as set out for us, why does our perception of eschatology have anything to do with sin?

You telling others to repent of something that is NOT a sin is something our Father would be disappointed in.

Don’t make anyone feel lesser than yourself or you’ll be placed accordingly.

Continue living as if today were your last on Earth. No need to frighten anyone.

Why did the Apostles chase down false doctrines in their various letters? Haven't you read what Paul and Peter have to say about false teachers? False doctrines are offensive to God, not just His children, because they defy Truth and lead people into eternity without Christ. Don't you think that would be enough?

to be fair, EVERY false doctrine that the church has fed the flock is offensive. But this one has been so destructive. As soon as a Christian embraces this doctrine, they're effectively off the battlefield. We are supposed to be aggressively removing the ungodly from every stronghold on earth, not pretending we were not commissioned to "convert the nations" but rather waiting for some kind of special rescue. NO! We should rejoice that we were chosen to be here on earth at this awesome victorious time to play active roles in HIS VICTORY.

Hi Robert,

Compare these scriptures I linked and ask yourself how these 2 events (Rapture/2nd Coming) could ever occur at the same time. Read all the verses and note how the wording/description is counter to your claim of a rapture when Jesus returns in 2030.

Or an explanation is welcome.

Thanks 🙏

The reason Rev 22:18 is so important is Jesus Himself is telling you not to imagine something else in those verses. Not me. For example under the "Rapture" column there is "Christians taken first others left behind" citing 1 Thess 4:13-18. YET verse 16 clearly says "the dead in Christ shall rise fist". That is the First resurrection which Jesus calls the "First". I love scripture so I don't reject any of those scriptures but I don't see any reason to entertain any notion of a rapture before the dead in Christ are raised.

"16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord."

Besides that people are injecting the notion that the "church" gets special treatment. The Body of Messiah encompasses ALL who are His and keep his commandments. He wrote those letters to multiple churches telling them to repent with stern warnings. Notice to Philadelphia He commends them for "Keeping His Word".

Thanks for sharing 🙏
