famozine1: Hello every one this question always bothers me alot even in the Bible 80% of it is based on Israel alone there is a chapter in the Bible the book of Ezekiel or so where God punish Jerusalem because of there sins there are some near by countries who is happy because of there downfall the punishment they receive is even more than what Jerusalem itself is going through am not saying God Is the God of Israel only but sometimes you might be love Or hate by your parents based on what you do God truly love israel what are the things they do that make God love them so so so much thanks If you create a god, would you make other people the “chosen people”. Would the god created by Famozine1 choose Knownunknown as his favorite Nairalander? |

MrPRevailer: 1) Turn off the globalist-controlled mainstream such as CNN, BBC etc. You wil be deceived to oblivion. Use sites like Stevequayle.com
2) That the terminology "Rapture" is not stated in the bible doesn't mean it isn't well elaborated. 1 Corinthians 15:51-55, 1Thessalonians 4:15-18 The same with the terminology "Trinity". Well elaborated in John 8:42, John 16:27-28, John 15:26
3) The U.N and ally-organisations have declared a New World Order/One World Government by year 2030. The W.E.F has explained it as the beginning of a new era, TRANSHUMANISM. Only those who are microchipped will be able to participate in the financial System. {Prophecy: Revelation 17:17, Revelation 13:16-18}
4) The Bible says the Antichrist will work with a false prophet who will perform false miracles. The Vatican Pope is a proponent and in full support of a transition to a One World Government. He is top 5 most powerful and influential person.
5) The closeness of the One World Order is ultimate proof that the Rapture is near. Immediately, after the rapture of the true Children of God, the Beast/Antichrist is given unlimited power to rule the Earth. Maybe Steve Quayle missed it but the Council of Divine Elders have cancelled the Rapture citing lack of resources and time constraints. |

I am willing to give them the benefit of doubt that he existed but that resurrection story, no. That will need evidence. Plus the he is coming soon refrain has been around for hundreds of years to no avail. That signals to me that the jew if he ever lived is as dead as a doornail. Give them an inch and they’ll construct bullshit a mile long. His nonexistence probably led the authors of Matthew and Luke to give different genealogies because the earlier gospel of Mark didn’t. The genealogies that were immediately nullified because they claim he was sired by a ghost. You can the stories get more fantastic as the gospels were written. Mark didn’t talk about his birth. Then Mathew and Luke recounted a miraculous birth. Then John claimed he has always existed. |

However, Slade’s biblical studies eventually led him to an uncomfortable truth: The rapture, as it is taught in some Baptist, evangelical and fundamentalist communities, is scantly mentioned in the Bible. In fact, modern rapture theology only dates back to the 1800s. |
Christianity Etc › Re: For Some Christians, ‘rapture Anxiety’ Can Take A Lifetime To Heal by KnownUnknown(op): 2:19pm On Sep 28, 2022 |
Survivors also cite the influence of fiction works, like the “Left Behind” book series and the 2000 movie adaptation, which they say were presented in their church circles as accurate glimpses into a post-rapture future. These works have reached such a level of infamy in these faith communities that some survivors say the descriptions of suffering and terror in the series greatly influenced their rapture-related fears. (There is a reason Ajoy’s initial thought of the guillotine seems oddly specific – it features in a graphic execution scene in the 1972 rapture film, “A Thief in the Night.”) |
Christianity Etc › Re: For Some Christians, ‘rapture Anxiety’ Can Take A Lifetime To Heal by KnownUnknown(op): 2:18pm On Sep 28, 2022 |
The concept of the rapture, known theologically as dispensational premillennialism, is not prevalent in Catholic or mainline Protestant denominations like Episcopalianism or Presbyterianism, and is most commonly adhered to in evangelical and fundamental churches. This line of theology draws heavily upon a letter from the Apostle Paul to the Thessalonians, included in the Bible, that says believers in Jesus would be snatched or seized into the air.
Interpretations of this verse vary widely among Christian leaders, many of whom see it as a common example of poetic metaphor among Paul’s writings. However, this striking imagery forms the basis of a lot of modern ideas about the rapture – so much so, Slade says it’s not uncommon for people with religious trauma to report having a fear of heights as they imagine their final ascent. |

https://www.cnn.com/2022/09/27/us/rapture-anxiety-evangelical-exvangelical-christianity-cec/index.htmlThirteen-year-old April Ajoy had a sense something wasn’t right. It was quiet in her Dallas house. Too quiet. Her brothers were gone. Her parents were gone. On her parents’ bed, a pile of her mother’s clothes signaled something terrifying. Ajoy’s mind began churning, trying to remember, trying to make plans. When was the last time she had sinned? Should she refuse the mark of the beast? At least, she thought, if she was put to the guillotine during the time of tribulation, it would be a quick death. From the moment they are old enough to understand, millions of people raised in certain Christian communities are taught that the rapture is something that can happen at any time. “Rapture anxiety,” as it is often called, is recognized by some faith experts and mental health professionals as a type of religious trauma. Darren Slade, the president and CEO of the Global Center for Religious Research, has been studying religious trauma across several faiths and denominations for years. “This is a real thing. It’s a chronic problem,” he says of rapture anxiety. “This is a new area of study, but in general, our research has revealed that religious trauma leads to an increase of anxiety, depression, paranoia and even some OCD-like behaviors: ‘I need to say this prayer of salvation so many times,’ ‘I need to confess my sins so often.’” |

elated177: Na you get your mouth. Use it the way you like.
However, call them whatever you like from now to tomorrow, the fact still remains that they shook the world in their own time. The heavens and the earth responded to their call. The sun, the moon, the rain, thunder and lightning, the wind, heard their voices when they spoke. They were used by the Maker to relay very important message to his saints, servants and messengers. We, the saints, servants and messengers of the Creator/Maker, have confirmed what they relayed. So, no amount of insult will ever change that.
AIO, trying to malign those prophets will not give you the validity you crave so much. Now listen: the heavens and the earth responded to the call of those prophets. The sun, the moon, the rain, thunder and lightning, the wind, heard their voices when they spoke. AIO, can you beat that. If you believe you can, prove it. The proof of the pudding is in the eating, they say. Show us what you are offering, AIO.
Again, AIO, if you believe you have something better, present it and we will consider it. Trying to undermine the Might and Power of the Most High, YHVH Almighty, the one and only true God, the Creator of the heavens, the earth, the seas and everything in them, in those great servants of his, by calling names, will not cut it.
AIO, just present your alternative. Finito! Okwu agwu la. The sun, the moon, the rain, thunder and lightning, the wind, heard their voices when they spoke? Your YHVH Almighty must be a puny god if that’s what his messengers are capable of. Have you heard of MGNFCNT Almighty and the Seer-Prophets? Whole solar systems, the galaxy, electromagnetic pulses, and the void hear their voices when they speak. The True Maker sends them messages over eons in the form of supernovas. We, the Ones, honorary uce of the True Maker, have confirmed what they relayed. |
