Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him… that day will not come until the rebellion (apostasy, ἀποστασία, ας, ἡ) occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed. 2 Thessalonians 2:1-4 I wish that Pre-Trib were correct. The only reason anyone believes in Pre-Trib is that they so desperately want to avoid pain that they will cling to anything that supports that hope. If you dont know what eisegesis is, look it up. The entire scriptural argument for a Pre-Trib Rapture is based on eisegesis and wishful thinking. You cannot give me a single verse of Scripture that says that the Rapture will be Pre-Trib... not one. You can, as the authors of the Left Behind series did, put a lot of Scriptures together and announce that these Scriptures, none of which says so, all put together prove that the Rapture is Pre-Trib. The problem is that they dont. I recently saw a book that claims to give scriptural proof that your pet dog will be in Heaven with you. There are enough people, who desperately want Rover to be with them in Heaven, to make the book a best seller, even though the Bible teaches no such thing. If you really want your pet spider to go to Heaven, you just might buy the book. IF YOU ARE REALLY TERRIFIED OF PAIN AND SUFFERING, YOU JUST MIGHT BUY INTO THE DOCTRINE OF A PRE-TRIB RAPTURE. 2 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by OUR GATHERING TOGETHER UNTO HIM, 2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. 3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for THAT DAY SHALL NOT COME, EXCEPT THERE COME A FALLING AWAY FIRST, AND THAT MAN OF SIN BE REVEALED, THE SON OF PERDITION; 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. David...
