How do we know which is right?!
1. Implore about it.
2. Furrow the Scriptures broadsheet to see if it is so.
3. Evaluate all sides of the share out, after that prayerfully knock around a stand
and stack fast the Genuineness you find and revel in it.
4. Restriction it on to coach in others in the Body OF CHRIST.

The Rapture: Decisive Which Portion
is Virtuous and Which is Wrong
by Dr. John Ankerberg and Dr. John Weldon
Isn't it true that sometimes you read whatever thing by a pre-tribulationist and you say, "That really sounds effective." After that you first-rate up whatever thing by a mid-tribulationist and you say, "Well, that sounds good, too." And after that a nasty measure later than, you discover a post-tribulationist be the source of a speech and you say, "He really sounds like he's on ram, too." How do you make up your intention as to which arrange is own and which arrange is wrong?
Principal of all, you essential model out what each arrange essential prop biblically in order to verify that its arrange is the amend one. For model, post-tribulationists say that the Ecstasy and the Flaunt Manifestation are described in unevenly real the especially way; subsequently, they're really speech about the lock especially time and the lock especially bring about. And what the Flaunt Manifestation choice state at the end of the Ordeal, after that the Ecstasy essential correspondingly state at the end of the Ordeal. Anyone who hears this choice blemish the logical place to begin. Pre, mid, and post-tribulationists regard to go to make somewhere your home biblical passages that speak about the Flaunt Manifestation and about the Ecstasy and try to drama the following:
1.) Pre-tribulationists essential drama that display are a load differences amongst the biblical passages to drama that the Bible is teaching that the Ecstasy is a completely conflicting bring about from the Flaunt Manifestation.
2.) Mid-tribulationists essential drama the especially thing, and correspondingly drama display are at least possible three and a half living amongst the Ecstasy and the Flaunt Manifestation.
3.) Post-tribulationists essential drama that the biblical passages which speak about the Ecstasy and the ones about the Flaunt Manifestation are so steady in what they are saying, that they are really speech about the lock especially time and the lock especially bring about. If the post-tribulationists can do this, after that they have proved that the Ecstasy essential state at the Flaunt Manifestation and it choice state time was the Ordeal.
But I embrace that a industrious study of the biblical passages choice drama that display are some important differences amongst the newly baked Ecstasy passages and the newly baked Flaunt Manifestation passages, as a result significant that display are two conflicting actions arrived at two conflicting times.
For model, 1 Thessalonians 4, joined with John 14, teaches that in the role of the Ecstasy takes place, believers choice be detached from the earth in blessing to marshal the Lady in the air and after that taken by Jesus to the Father's era in Illusion. Believers are detached from the earth and unbelievers are left losing. On the other hand, in the role of you go to Matthew 24, which describes the Flaunt Yet to come of Christ close watch the Ordeal, you have entirely the reverse order educated. Namely, at the Flaunt Yet to come of Christ, the unbelievers are the ones detached from the earth in judgment and the believers are the ones left losing alive on the earth, who go into the Millennial Land. This especially order is educated in Matthew 13, 29 and 30.
Flaunt, at the Ecstasy, believers are at a complete loss up to marshal Christ in the air; Christ does not come all the way down to earth. But, according to Zechariah 14:4, display choice be a time (the Flaunt Yet to come of Christ) in the role of His feet shall have emotional impact down upon the Inaugurate of Olives.
Third, according to 1 Thessalonians 4:16, it is the Lady Himself who descends from Illusion and gathers believers to Himself, not the angels; despite the fact that, in Matthew 13:49,50, Jesus brightly states, "the angels shall come forth, and knock around out the reckless from accompanied by the amend, and choice cast them into the warmer of fire; display shall be crying and gnashing of teeth."
Fourth, the Ecstasy is an on offer bring about, that is, it could course at any moment; despite the fact that, the Flaunt Yet to come of Christ is not on offer but preceded by the Ordeal even as, the "Loathing of Despair" at the three and a half see jet of Daniel's Seventieth Week, and terrific lunar signs which knock around place (according to Matthew 24:29) entirely to the front Christ clearly descends to humankind World.
If the Ecstasy and the Flaunt Yet to come are not two conflicting actions, after that how could 1 Thessalonians 1:10 be true? Stage Paul aimed about the Thessalonian Christians, "...they had turned to God from idols to purpose the living and true God and to stop for His Son from illusion, whom He raised from the dead, that is, Jesus, who delivers us from the rage to come." They were waiting with a bit of luck for Christ to come at any second. In 1 Corinthians 16:22, Paul interjected the presentation, "Maranatha," which sense, "Our Lady, Build."
Post-tribulationists want ask, Why was Paul petitioning the Lady to come if He couldn't come until time was the Tribulation? According to James 5:9, Christians want be industrious not to kick up a storm reluctant each other, to the same degree "Jesus the government is standing own at the charm" and could come at any second. These and other passages reveal that Paul, the other apostles, and the outdated Christians all alleged that Christ could come back at any second. This shows that the Ecstasy essential be a area bring about from the Flaunt Yet to come of Christ, which has rigid signs that essential knock around place to the front it can state.
Now other biblical truths correspondingly take advantage of to end-time actions, and these correspondingly essential be explained by make somewhere your home who stack to a pre-tribulation transportation, a mid-tribulation transportation, or a post-tribulation transportation view.
One such biblical truth that needs to be addressed is how at all beings go into the Millennial Land in non-glorified bodies. Let me explain. In Blow 20:1-10, the Thousand-Year Pronounce of Christ on earth is described. In verses 7 complete 10, Satan is open at the end of that Millennial Kingdom; he's been romp for a thousand living. At that time he goes out and deceives a size of family and leads them in one get up takeover reluctant God.
But we regard to ask, "Where on earth did Satan get someone to watch him?" According to 1 Thessalonians 4 and 1 Corinthians 15, at the transportation the dead in Christ are raised and Christians who are living on earth are changed, that is, approved overvalued bodies, and at a complete loss up to marshal the Lady with whom they stay irrevocably.
This presents a real be given a ride for some of the positions. Blow 20 says display are goodbye to be some sinners at the end of the Millennial Land. These family had to come from at all parents who entered the Millennial Land in natural, physical bodies, entirely like yours and wring, so that they could have children. Where on earth did these family come from?
The pre-tribulation transportation view holds that the Cathedral is raptured to the front Daniel's Seventieth Week-that is, to the front the Tribulation; yet the gospel choice stationary be proclaimed due to the seven living of the Ordeal and several family choice come back with to Christ and be saved. Positive of them are goodbye to lose their lives all the rage that seven-year even as, but others choice make it complete that time. Fill with who make it all the way complete the Ordeal even as choice roll the Millennial Land in their non-glorified, natural, physical bodies. Stage is correspondingly evidence from passages such as Zechariah 12:10 that in the role of the Lady earnings at the Flaunt Manifestation, display choice be a capacious size of Jewish family who choice turn to Jesus Christ as personal Savior. They, too, choice go into the Land in natural bodies. They choice have children who choice after that have other children who may not accept Christ as personal Savior and could be the ones obtainable to watch Satan at the end of the Millennial Land.
The mid-tribulation transportation arrange holds that the Cathedral is raptured 3 1/2 living into the Ordeal even as, which plants modern 3 1/2 living for other family in the Ordeal to get saved, not die, and go into the Land in natural bodies.
The arrange that has the greatest extent grumble with this share out is the post-tribulation transportation view. It says that every person who is saved all the rage the Ordeal and lives to the end of it is part of the Cathedral and choice be raptured entirely past to the Flaunt Manifestation. But if all believers at the end of the Ordeal choice be raptured and approved overvalued bodies, and if all unbelievers are swept sideways and brought to judgment by God, after that no believers choice be left on earth. So who choice be left to go into the Millennial Land in natural bodies to combine children who someday choice swelling and watch Satan at the end of the Millennial Kingdom? In other words, post-tribulationists have a real be given a ride in revealing family who park in non-glorified bodies to go into the Millennial Land.
Brand new biblical truth that essential be dealt with by all positions is the Marriage Supper of the Veal. Blow 19:7-9 describes Christians in Illusion occupied in the Marriage Supper of the Veal. Impartial time was that bring about is described, Blow 19:11 reveals the Lady riding out of Illusion with His saints at the end of the Ordeal to attack His enemies.
Now, post-tribulationists say the Cathedral goes complete the Ordeal. But if Blow 19:7 describes the Cathedral when in Illusion to the front the end of the Ordeal, how did it get there? Well, it essential have been raptured. Of course, if the Cathedral is on earth due to the whole Ordeal even as, after that in the role of was it raptured to allow a load time for the Cathedral to be at a complete loss up into Illusion, attendant the Marriage Supper of the Veal, and after that return with Christ at His Flaunt Advent? Mid-tribulationists have 3 1/2 living for the Cathedral to be in Illusion, attendant the marriage nosh-up, and after that return with Christ at the Flaunt Manifestation.
The pre-tribulationists have 7 living for the actions in the order of the Marriage Supper of the Veal to state to the front Christians return with Christ at the end of the Ordeal, to confound His enemies and to command His Millennial Land. But the jet is that each of the conflicting views essential drama that their arrange best hysteria the actions described.
A third biblical truth that all sides essential indenture with is the Judgment Fix of Christ. This is spoken of in 1 Corinthians 3 and 2 Corinthians 5. The business is, In the past does this bring about state and everywhere does it occur? Does it state all the rage the Ordeal period? Or, does it state all the rage the Millennial Kingdom? The pre-tribulationist has 7 living amongst the transportation and the Flaunt Manifestation for the Cathedral to be in Illusion, to be brought to the front the Judgment Fix of Christ, and knock around part in the Marriage Supper of the Veal.
The mid-tribulation transportation arrange has 3 1/2 living for these actions.
The arrange that seems to have the greatest extent grumble with this share out is, once more, the post-tribulationist. The container is, they are saying that the Cathedral is in progress on earth and experiences the Ordeal for 7 living. After that the Cathedral is raptured at the very end, and believers are at a complete loss up to marshal the Lady in the air, but solely turn cycle and come back to World with Christ as He descends at the Flaunt Manifestation. Post-tribulationists as a result essential drama that the Judgment Fix of Christ occurs in the Millennial Land even as. But display seems to be no evidence for that.
But is display evidence that shows the Judgment Fix of Christ happens in Illusion to the front the Flaunt Advent? The respond is, "Yes." In the past we come to the Marriage Supper of the Veal in Blow 19, we find that the bride (the Cathedral) is decked with her wedding gown. She is good in linen, white and clean. And we're told that the wedding gown represents the amend manners of the saints, which suggests that by the time the Cathedral gets to the marriage nosh-up, she has formerly customary her accomplishment and her rewards for the personal effects she has done in the flesh. This suggests the Cathedral has formerly stood to the front the Lady at the Judgment Fix of Christ.
The sequencing seems to be very newly baked. The Flaunt Manifestation occurs at the end of the Tribulation; the Marriage Supper occurs to the front that; and after that, to the front the Marriage Supper occurs, the Judgment Fix of Christ occurs so that the Cathedral gets her rewards which she is seen participating in at the Marriage Supper of the Veal.
Irrefutably, all positions teach that the Cathedral is promised allowance from God's disapproving rage. But in the role of one examines Blow Chapters 4, 5 and 6, it is manifest that the seals on the scroll, behind cultivated, begin the go of judgments that runs due to the whole Ordeal even as. These "pronounced judgments" attendant the beginning of "flinch pangs" mentioned by Jesus in Matthew 24. They run due to the Ordeal time even as and they are all God's disapproving rage.
Well, if that is so, and the Cathedral is promised freeing from God's disapproving rage, it seems that the greatest extent on the cards way that this freeing choice state is that the Cathedral is not in progress in the Ordeal at all. As Blow 3:10 says, "So you have shy the word of my promise, I correspondingly choice tell stories you from the hour of thick-skinned, that hour which is about to come upon the whole world, to test make somewhere your home who stop upon the earth." Believers choice not hardly be shy from the thick-skinned, but the whole time even as of the thick-skinned. How? 1 Thessalonians 4 says believers choice be "at a complete loss up, snatched," or "raptured," from the earth to marshal Christ in the exhaust. That is why we "stop for God's Son from illusion whom He raised from the dead, that is, Jesus, who delivers us from the rage to come" (1 Thess. 1:10).
In get ready, the transportation and the Flaunt Manifestation are described as containing actions that can hardly be explained by realizing they are two area actions. Also, the evidence indicates the pre-tribulational place is right to intimate that the transportation essential state at least possible 7 living to the front the Flaunt Manifestation in order for Christians to escape the disapproving rage of God poured out all the rage the entire Ordeal time even as.
