I agree there will be no pre-trib rapture. If people would research it, the pre-rapture theory was all based on a young woman's "vision" around the 19th century and the leaders of the church ran with it. They did not uphold or examine God's revealed Word.<br />Anyway, I have been having a burden on my heart on how to prepare my children, myself and other believers for the Great Tribulation. Many commentors on that board really missed the point of the post. Many were concerned with the physical body. Do they not understand from current disasters --Hurricane Katrina, the Christmas tsunami, earthquakes, volcanoes, drought, gov't progroms, war, terrorism -- there will be a great dispersion of people! How many cans of food, bottled water, animals, etc. can one lug on his/her back when all you're blessed to escape with are the clothes on your back and your life?<br />We MUST be prepared spiritually. And that is the danger of pre-trib rapture theory. It renders the modern Christian lazy, slothful, drunken with pleasure and unaware! There are already Christians in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Egypt, Sudan, Phillipines, etc. who are going through distressing persecution, torture and of course, death. Why are we Western Christians so smug in our assurance of escape. Jesus promised us we who desire to live a Christian life will suffer persecution. I do believe we as the church will escape God's wrath, but not the wrath of man.<br />Finally, how do we prepare spiritually? Watch and pray, read and memorize Scripture and Christ-centered songs, diligently tell others about Jesus, obey God's word, TEACH OUR CHILDREN to obey us and Jesus, love ALL people, especially our tormenters and remember we wrestle not against flesh and blood and to look up! Praise God, His spirit is prompting us to get ready in these last and evil days.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12783350310611096039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2927437653449007593.post-62778207931707150192010-11-23T22:01:46.498-08:002010-11-23T22:01:46.498-08:00Amy!
