| The Rapture: Determining Which Position Is Right!! by twosquare(op): 1:52pm On Aug 22, 2013 |
1.Post-tribulationists believe that the rapture will not occur until the end of the seven year tribulation, just prior to the beginning of the millennial kingdom. 2. Mid-tribulationists believe that the rapture will occur three and one half years into the tribulation, at beginning of the three and one half year great tribulation. 3. Pre-tribulationists believe that the rapture will occur immediately before the tribulation. Fellow nairalanders,which of these position is right? what's your take on this!! |

twosquare:None of them are Scriptural though! ![]() First of all, Jesus Christ, made clear that the Tribulation He described would take place in the same generation that His disciples lived in, we are talking about the period around the destruction of Jerusalem over 1900 years ago. That serves as more than enough evidence to discredit all 3 positions. Unless of course one instead believes Jesus Christ lied to His followers in the context of Matthew 24 vs 1 - 44 & Mark 13 vs 1 - 31 & Luke 21 vs 5 - 33 regarding when the Tribulation He spoke of would take place. ![]() |

Scriptures never suggest that there is going to be rapture or any tribulation for Christians. Post -tribulation, pre-tribulation or whatever, are all fictional ideas and doctrines of the human minds and fears |

I believe it is mid-tribulation |

paxonel:See how you show you are a.Deluded Liar? So the present troubulations blowing all around the world are not real? What a mad delusion you carry. |
| Re: The Rapture: Determining Which Position Is Right!! by Veecruz: 9:21am On Mar 28, 2024 |
CaptainJune:Wrong. As scripture foretold, the rapture took place before the troubulations started. |
| Re: The Rapture: Determining Which Position Is Right!! by paxonel(m): 10:44am On Mar 28, 2024 |
Veecruz:whatever we call tribulation today is not what the bible is referring to as great tribulation What a mad delusion you carry.search yourself. The truth has nothing to with anyone's emotions |
| Re: The Rapture: Determining Which Position Is Right!! by Veecruz: 12:20pm On Mar 28, 2024 |
paxonel:You love denials and delisuons too much. Without a doubt, every normal person has seen that the family structure is broken down and that family members are now enemies, fathers killing sons and sons killing fathers, exactly as prophecied. The moon has been red for a long while instead of its customary white. We had the hardness of buying and selling, whoredom is increased, as prophecied, yet you say this troubulations are not what was prophecied? Please, keep your delusions away.from public discussions |

Plus1234:You mean attack Jesus Christ since He is the one who said the tribulation He described would happen in the very same generation that His disciples lived in? ![]() 29 “Right after the trouble of those days, this will happen:‘The sun will become dark, and the moon will not give light.The stars will fall from the sky, and everything in the sky will be changed.’[c]Do you believe All of what Jesus Christ said of the events to take place during the end of time, in fact, took place about 1900 years ago as Jesus Christ assured they would or do you reject these claims made by Jesus Christ in His Gospel? ![]() You attack me because deep down you believe Jesus Christ was just a liar.. ![]() |
| Re: The Rapture: Determining Which Position Is Right!! by paxonel(m): 1:00pm On Mar 28, 2024 |
Veecruz:You believe so much in conspiracy theories and that is the greatest decision. Do you realize that tribulations like these have been through out the history of mankind? |
| Re: The Rapture: Determining Which Position Is Right!! by Veecruz: 1:28pm On Mar 28, 2024 |
paxonel:See mad denial ooo.. Are the people who saw the beginning of these troubulations not stiil here? Paxy, just stop talking clearly.you are mad and need your delusions to keep on living. |
| Re: The Rapture: Determining Which Position Is Right!! by paxonel(m): 1:32pm On Mar 28, 2024 |
Veecruz:Look my friend, what you are experiencing now that you are calling tribulation is no where to be compared to what people experienced during the slave trade era. So, stop shouting |
| Re: The Rapture: Determining Which Position Is Right!! by Veecruz: 1:45pm On Mar 28, 2024 |
paxonel:See, new argument because you cannot face the real eyeity. Is it not only those stolen as slaves that suffered? Has your great grandfather and ggmother and your step fathers and step motheres and their families and villages not proven that they were not affected by slavery? Bros, you are mad like Sonmvayina and as Sonma needs hard drugs to live so do you need your delusions. |

paxonel:But Jesus Christ had mentioned tribulation as signs of his coming? |
| Re: The Rapture: Determining Which Position Is Right!! by paxonel(m): 3:22pm On Mar 28, 2024 |
denisbid:Like i have said before, Jesus has come already, so the said tribulation as a sign of his coming happened approximately 2000 years ago when he came. So don't expect any sign called tribulation anymore. Everything misfortune you see as tribulation today have no connection with any coming of Christ. People are confusely being drunk with a mental shift by religion, example is that peecruz or whatever he called himself that seems like water is filled his brain, i have already marked his moniker along with the list of mentally derailed people on this forum ![]() |

| Re: The Rapture: Determining Which Position Is Right!! by paxonel(m): 3:40pm On Mar 28, 2024 |
denisbid:they fail to understand that they cannot win arguments with fallacies ![]() Even if what they are saying is true, with fallacies they are locked |
| Re: The Rapture: Determining Which Position Is Right!! by Veecruz: 5:58pm On Mar 28, 2024 |
paxonel:As i have said, your delusions have made you mad. How can the people with Him ask him while with him and seeing Him say ".Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign OF THY COMING, and of the end of the world? If the signs were with Him 2000 years back, then how would Jesus Answer that "Ye shall hear..., ye shall see..., many shall come..." Your delusions make you mad! |
| Re: The Rapture: Determining Which Position Is Right!! by Veecruz: 6:12pm On Mar 28, 2024 |
denisbid:Dont be a coward, speak to my face and lay the fallacy you think i commited, if you are not a Liar? |
| Re: The Rapture: Determining Which Position Is Right!! by denisbid: 6:49pm On Mar 28, 2024 |
Veecruz:When you place your argument, you don't start by insulting people. The moment you start using words like Coward, Liar, delusion, etc, you have already committed a fallacy called ad hominem. Google it and find out the meaning incase you were not told in school. You see the way paxonel has ignored you, if you make the same mistake again and quote me, i will not even bother, do worry ![]() |
| Re: The Rapture: Determining Which Position Is Right!! by Kobojunkie: 7:12pm On Mar 28, 2024 |
Read rev 10 vs7 and read rev 11 vs 15.The information described in much of Revelations, Seven Trumpets, horsemen stories, and so on, all took place about 1900 years ago, as Jesus Christ said they all would. ![]() 6 The angel made a promise by the power of the one who lives forever and ever. He is the one who made the skies and all that is in them. He made the earth and all that is in it, and he made the sea and all that is in it. The angel said, “There will be no more waiting!.... 15 The seventh angel blew his trumpet. Then there were loud voices in heaven. The voices said,“The kingdom of the world has now become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Messiah. And he will rule forever and ever.” |

denisbid:Calling a person who is seen dodging and acting like a coward, is not a fallacy. Fallacies are about things that are not True or about fouls commited because an opponent cannot make a valid, reasonable and an argument that is true or is trying to unlawfully prevent an opponent from lawfully presenting his argument in counter for due examination. Those are all the grounds of fallacies and i did not break anyone of them for rather, i even invited you to come and have a fair and just argument with me. And Paxo did not ignore me, he stopped answering because he has no valid and true argument to make, for it is a Law , there is no valid argument against the Truth., so he nust stop where Truth stops So, now you can see, fallacy is not the only Law of argument, there are many other rules that regulate fair argument. Here are some No 1 Quora https://www.quora.com › What are the basic rules of an 'argument'? 26 Jan 2019 — What are the basic rules of an 'argument'? Top answer · 4 votes The first basic rule is: Fight fair! No low blows, no insults or ad hominems. No fallacious 2. THE FREEDOM RULE PARTIES MUST NOT PREVENT EACH OTHER FROM PUTTING FORWARD STANDPOINTS OR CASTING DOUBT ON STANDPOINTS. (van Eemeren et al. 110) See how atheists attacked Aemmyjah Re: Does God Exist? by Thorrn(f): 11:20pm On Oct 29, 2023 Aemmyjah: Does God Exist? The Bible’s answer... Aw, shut up. How many more times are we going to entertain this ridiculous circus from religious people? 3. THE BURDEN-OF-PROOF RULE- He who asserts must prove. But atheists unreasonably think that once a person is to prove, he must prove forever (which is why they keep asking one silly off point question or the other ready to ask you these off point and irrelevant questions forever till you reasonably give up and then they say you have not proven your case. And this is where they hate me because I cut them off with the laws of debate which guards against all stupid and unreasonable and invalid questions or argument.. And whilst they are keeping you busy asking all these stupd questions, they pretend not to know and see and hope to distract you with their useless questions, that once proof has been given, the burden of proof has shifted to them for them to give their own evidence of rebuttal. And usually, because they have none, and because people do not know that the burden has shifted, they keep wailing that you should attend to their distractive off point arguments. which if you do, the burden of proof returns back to you, THEREBY EVADING AND ESCAPING THEIR DUTY OF DISCHARGING THE BURDEN OF PROOF WHICH FELL ON THEM. 4) THE STANDPOINT RULE (AkA OFF POINT/GOAL POST SHIFTING RULE. THE BIGGEST VIOLATIONS ATHEIST COMMIT) grin Which is why you see Thorn complaining and lying that there is no Rule. "A PARTY’S ATTACK ON A STANDPOINT MUST RELATE TO THE STANDPOINT THAT HAS INDEED BEEN ADVANCED BY THE OTHER PARTY (You cannot go off point). (van Eemeren et al. 116) Your standpoint is simply your claim, your basic argument in a nutshell. If you disagree with another person’s argument or they disagree with yours, the actual standpoint and not some related but more easily attacked issue must be addressed. For example, one person might argue that the rhetoric of global warming has created a multimillion-dollar green industry benefiting from fears over climate change. This is an argument about the effects of global warming rhetoric, not global warming itself. It would break the standpoint rule to argue that the writer/speaker does not believe in global warming. This is not the issue at hand. More here https://www.nairaland.com/7956638/some-atheists-pretend-not-know#127761745 |

paxonel:Yeah! I could not envisage Though I have reasoned with all you have been saying, but your stand about rapture, i do not totally agree with you. Let's starts from here like this ![]() You know, God has promise his people that where he is, that is where they will also be. So if God is in heaven, certainly we will also be with him in heaven |
| Re: The Rapture: Determining Which Position Is Right!! by paxonel(m): 7:35pm On Mar 28, 2024 |
denisbid:and I keep asking the question, where is this heaven? Have you ever bothered to ask the same question too? |
| Re: The Rapture: Determining Which Position Is Right!! by denisbid: 7:41pm On Mar 28, 2024 |
paxonel:It doesn't really matter. As much as heaven is on earth, so it is in heaven where God is located |
| Re: The Rapture: Determining Which Position Is Right!! by paxonel(m): 7:49pm On Mar 28, 2024 |
denisbid:OK, how about this? ![]() 1 Corinthians 6:19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? Do you have any scripture that says otherwise or any scripture indicating that God is somewhere beyond the clouds order than our body? You will never see any such scripture. And i keep wonder, if you are raptured to the clouds, you will end up meeting dead bodies like jupiter, Saturn, Uranius and Neptune, not God ![]() |
