specialmati:brother, i guarantee you like someone who read all through the bible no rapture in that book, believe me. I attend a Pentecostal church too, but i don't need to argue that with anyone in my church. I used to believe there was rapture in the bible until i started reading it myself. All those scriptures that seems to be like rapture were all refering to something else. For instance, Matthew 24 was Jesus listing the signs of his coming to his disciples, there is nothing rapture there. 1 Corinthians 15 Paul explained resurrection of the dead if you read that chapter from verse 35 to the end, there is nothing rapture there See, all you need to do is, just read the whole chapter and draw a conclusion |
beges:you only read my last line why then are you responding to what you didn't read at all? Is that not a sign that you were heavily brainwashed and you was expecting to see the usual brainwashing teaching which you didn't see ![]() |
maximunimpact:everything is written in the bible. Only that we are reading we are not seeing because religious doctrines have be-clouded our minds away from the truth. |
reubenobi:the person that is kidding is the one writing conclusion without presenting any premise to explain his point. I must be kidding, that is your argument. But how do you explain that my write up is kidding? You can't explain! Are you not lost like that? May God help you |
obonujoker:I will adjourn you to go back and read these scriptures again. There is background story behind these scriptures that was neglected before bible scholars proposed that they were talking about rapture and these are the basics of the story : 1. The Jews (Israelites) had the old covenant with God through their fore father Abraham which was to end at the coming of their Messiah(Jesus Christ),hence the signs of the coming and end of the world in Matthew 24:3 2. Daniel(a prophet of the old covenant) prophesied the coming of the Messiah when Israel was taken to exile at Babylon Matthew 24:15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand: Which means, the disciples actually saw the abomination of desolation 3. Jesus Christ in Mathew 24 made reference to the prophecy of Daniel to his disciples pertaining to the coming of the Messiah the Jews were waiting for, that when they(the disciples) see all the signs like rumours of war, earthquakes, abomination of desolation, etc, they should know that they were signs of the end of the old covenant(what they meant by end of world) All these things happened within that era or period Jesus Christ came for him to be crucified for the sins of mankind, about 2000 years ago. Infact, Jesus specifically said Matthew 24:34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. The mistake we are making today is that, when we read these things in the bible we think they refer to events that will happen in our future. It's not so, They all happened in that generation of the bible days of jesus disciples The same thing with the book of revelation. The book of Revelation was a vision given to John the beloved to confirm Jesus Christ to the Jews that he is actually the Messiah. It was written for us to read and know what has happened in the past, not that we should read and be scared of our future. |
MrPresident1:lie! No eye will see Jesus, what do you want them to see, a white robed and bearded man flying back to earth? You people are just full of fictions. Face reality! Jesus is already in you! The moment people see you they have seen Jesus |
obonujoker:no doubt Before he starts, Jesus Christ will come to remove his chosen ones from the Earth ... This is what is called the rapturedo you have any scripture to support this? |
Rapture is illusion thinking and false imaginations of Christians, there is nothing like rapture anywhere in the bible. Rather, God created man to live on this earth forever. Genesis 2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. Meaning, if Adam had not eaten from that tree there wouldn't have been death today. Now that there is death, Christ resurrected so that the life that was lost from the beginning should be restored to them that believe. John 3:16 Christ has restored that life there is nothing you Christians need anymore, he has done it all. The day died he said : IT IS FINISHED So, there is nothing left to be done anymore. Now, you Christians are demanding for rapture, what else do you want? |

OK, I have read all your comments on this thread which was created since June last year and no one was able to show any proof of either redrawal from elsewhere or within Nigeria, therefore the nonsense is scam, a total waste of time and data ![]() |
Why will the church send them packing, did they pay for the house? Free house that was given to you, you went and send the occupants packing, what if the occupants did not agree with the giving? |
If you don't pay tithe, you can never enter our private jet or send your child to study free in our private university |
Stupid talk Una nor get handwork abi? Op or wetin dem dey call you You nor even know how to present the lie very well make e sweet Court of law Which court of law, the one for your village? |

Lie! Fake story, all to attract attention to the north for fake humanitarian assistance from the daft government |
jesusjnr2020:this scripture is symbolic as well |
Hell fire is figurative language. What is real is death. Revelation says whosever name was not written in the book of life was cast into the Lake of fire which is the second death. So hell fire is death in the real sense |
Speaking of tongues in bible days was simply incantation by peophets before they will prophesy, just like a juju Priest of this current day incanting before they do their rituals, there is nothing special in it. |
Kalatium:why? Is there any reason Paul gave to this? |
Chickennuggets:there is nothing like money ritual, it doesn't exist in the real sense |

leye4u:malaria is transmitted by protozoa, there are no effective vaccines for it. It is ridiculous to say malaria vaccine in a medical sense or maybe you are still dreaming the dreams of conspiracy theory over malaria vaccine ![]() |
brandsoncharlie:ok, you mean malaria should have a vaccine? ![]() |
BeeBeeOoh:shaaalllap! Who want your smelling bum bum on the vaccine niddle? |
HISSCRIBE1995:but Jesus Christ had his own philosophy? |
