Winston, what is your End Time belief? Do you stand on a MidTrib Rapture, a PostTrib Rapture, no Rapture? Do you believe there will be a Millennial Reign of Christ on earth? Do you believe there will be a Millennial Kingdom, but, Christ will stay in heaven during that 1000 years? Do you believe there will be no Millennial Kingdom, that we are living in the Millennium at this time.
These are some of the current beliefs; although not Biblical. But, what do YOU believe? If you have no belief -- then, why are you telling me I am wrong in my belief?
God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,
Bill
Bill,
You mention four Rapture beliefs:
Pre-Tribulation: Rapture occurs prior to the 7 year period (Daniel's 70th Week).
Mid-Trib: Rapture occurs at exactly the halfway point 3 1/2 years into the 70th week.
Post-Trib Rapture occurs at the end of the Tribulation Period
No belief in a Rapture at all
I would like to add one additional choice that has been termed the Pre-Wrath Rapture which many confuse with the Mid-Trib Rapture position but it is not.
The Pre-Wrath position is one I laid out above, in prior post, which believes the Rapture occurs prior to God's Day of Wrath. Teaching is that the Seals of Revelation 6 are moments in time that are highlighted and as these moments in time occur the events of Revelation 6 are not God's Wrath but descriptions of terrible hard times that the Church will endure. Pre-Wrath teaches that the Church/Christians alive during that determined period of time (Daniel's 70th week) will endure severe tribulation/persecution under the Antichrist but will be Raptured (Caught up) right before God unleashes His Wrath in the Day of the Lord. Hence the terminology Pre-Wrath.
