This discussion started on the email list , i thought to bring it here , because i think its going to be a long one.

i dont see anything wrong with the way curt responded. How is it that everyones feelings are so quick to be hurt? Have any one of you been rebuked by the Lord? You dont know nothing yet!! Im sure that will hurt your feelings too.
Man i have longed to share with you guys what i believe about the end times and the scriptures. But my understanding is not full. I have trouble with the book of daniel , and i know daniel is the key to understanding the order of things. This i want to point out though , at least for now cause i need to study more before i post more on this. There is a differnce between a great tribulation , and THE great tribulation. There is one thing that MUST happen before the antichrist makes his apearance , and that is , the Gospel must be preached to the whole world for a wittness against them. ANd then shall he be revealed , then shall the end come. All of those left behind will suffer eternal hell , as the Father just told us ," they will suffer with those that will suffer" , and we know those who reject Christ shall not enter heaven. And once the door is shut , Noone is getting through , so those unprepared virgins ( those who didnt do the will of the Father ) will be left out and thrown into outer darkness where there is weaping and nashing of teeth.
The antichrist is being held back right now by God. Untill the Gospel has been preached to the whole world , for God wills that all men be saved and come to repentance and believe on His Son. Those who recieve Christ shall be saved , but those who reject Christ will be given over to be deceived by the antichrist , ( who will decieve the whole world ) . So those who are ready , and i should add , those who have survived the opening of the 6 seals will be caught up unto God , those left behind will suffer the 7th seal , the wrath of God. But oh how rare men will be at that time! so many will perish in the comeing years , with the opening of the 6 seals. Its in the 7th seal that God turns back to His Chosen Isreal and seals them , and pours His Wrath out on everyone else.
Ahh man my brothers and sisters , your looking for the rapture , but how will you survive the 5th seal? the 4th seal? the 3rd seal? the 2nd seal? to even make it to the rapture?
THE great tribulation unlike the world has ever seen or will see , is after the rapture. the great tribulation we are about to go through is the unlike any before it , but greater is the one that comes after it. But you dont have to worry about that one. I garantee you wont be here. The odds are just stagering. If you are here , unless you are one of Gods sealed Jews theres no hope for you.
So now lets look and see , God is seeking one to preach His Gospel to the world , to do exploits , to Glorify His Name , one who will seek after Him with all his heart and soul. And yes , He promises you that you will be persecuted for obeying Him. You may even die for Him , but if you survive , He will take you up in the clouds at His arival , and reward everyman acording to His works.
I hope this answers your question dee dee , we will go through perilous times , but worse is the time after the rapture , its unlike any before it or ever again. And if your still here , then you are one of the few who have survived only to be unprepared to meet the Master , which means there is no hope for you , for Once the Master shuts the door , you will not get through. So saith the scriptures
i would like to add something here . I think its good to discuss these scriptures , as i finish up on the study that i put off a while back , i will come again and point out exaclty why i believe what i posted , with the scriptures to back it up, until then , if anything i said seems to contradict what you read in scriptures , it doesnt have to be a debate to respond oposeing what i said , only supply the scripture and let us reason together. And at that i would also add , if its going to turn into a big discussion ( which i believe it will ) maybe we should take this to prophecylink? Im sure ray would agree with that .
One person i was waiting to hear was Jack , but seeing how so many of you reject him..... I guess il speak up in my limeted knowlege. But im sure already that you reject me too.
Here is Wisdom , Let your disernment of who is of God and who is not , not be determened by what you see , by how sweet a person seems to be , by how nice there words are , or by how much truth they speak, but rather by what the Holy Ghost is telling you. That is if you can hear the Holy Ghost. Let God make us one who are of Him
im going to post this on prophecylink as well, under discussion of prophecys , let us go there and further discuss this. Send your reply there.
