No, you are wrong.
We’ve been over this anthill before and you can beat your chest all you want with your crazy Pre-terist beliefs.
The fact that Israel is a nation again, easily proves your theory wrong. Not only that but Jesus Himself quoted Daniel’s prophecy in Matthew 24:15 as a FUTURE event (Daniel 11).
Besides all that Nero had nothing to do with the temple destruction in 70AD.
You are wrong on so many levels, that it’s wasting my time even responding to you anymore.
It’s biblical beliefs - not the fake 19th century Rap belief.
Daniel talks about Israel forming as a nation thanks to Cyrus the Great freeing them from Babylon.
Daniel talks about the 4 empires that would rule Israel from Daniels time
Gold/head: Babylon
silver/body: the Achaemenid Empire
Bronze/trunk: the Macedonian Seleucid Empire
Iron and ironmixed with sand / legs: The Roman Empire.
The stone that was uncut by human hands and then destroys the Roman Empire and then becomes a mountain that covers the entire earth? CHRIST and Christianity.
We’ve been over this before and you can beat your chest all your want with the fake 19th century Rapture beliefs, but it is easily proven as false
Oh and Nero was instrumental in the Jewish Roman war which lasted from 67 AD (started under Nero).
This is spoken of in the book of the Apocalypse of John of Patmos where he describes that Israel was under the 6th “king” - NERO - and the 7th king was to come (Galba) but his time was short.
There is a false “Rapture” doctrine (Scofield) that says when Jesus appears in the clouds, He will then take the Church away. The Bible is very clear. When He appears in the clouds He will then descend to Earth (with the saints who had just been caught up to meet Him.)
There won’t be a special secret visit where Christ takes only some believers and then returns for what would not be a “Second Coming but a third time for the Final Judgment at which time He will sort out the remainder including more people who will go to Heaven.
One should not believe in the 19th century hallucinations of Rap.
Besides, the Bible verse about left behind actually means left out, and remember, it is the bad people who are taken, not the good people. The only “rapture” will be at the end of the world when everybody is leaving, and those still alive will have to live through the destruction of the world - which actually has its upside: those who have the misfortune to be alive when the world goes up in flames will not have to endure purgatory, they will get all of that out of the way right here
The Rap is neither Biblical nor doctrinal. No one knows when the Second Coming of Christ will be, but the Father which is in Heaven (Acts 1:7).
As for a “rapture”, it is nowhere to be found in the Bible, and it is solely based on this verse :
Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
-1 Thessalonians 4:17
To be literally taken away is contrary to what Jesus taught about the resurrection, which will happen to all[1]. Even Paul didn’t make such assumption when he talked about someone being “caught up to the third heaven” (2 Corinthians 12:2).
There are many passages in the Scriptures that are symbolic, not literal. For example, Peter taught about “new heavens and a new earth” (2 Peter 3:13); does this mean that God has created a new planet for the righteous, somewhere in the Universe, or that Peter is rather talking about the restoration of the Kingdom of Heaven (as explained above, in the first paragraph)?
Interpreting literally the Scriptures is missing the spiritual context from which they were given. When searching truths in the Scriptures, we must first search to be taught by the Holy Ghost (Matthew 16:15-17, John 14:26). A few weeks ago, some Christian debated that it was impossible to understand the Holy Ghost without reading the Scriptures, but such claim forget that these very teachings—about the Holy Ghost—were only put in writing decades after Christ’s ascension and, yet, many still felt—and recognized—the Holy Ghost. Because the Holy Ghost comes from righteousness (Matthew 6:33), and the Scriptures are a tool unto that righteousness.
The Rapture™ is a doctrinal innovation introduced by Margaret MacDonald in 1830 based on a dismally upside-down interpretation of scripture.
People who believe in The Rapture™ point to Matthew 24, but if they would look at verse 37, they would see that this event is being compared to what happened in the days of Noah.
And who was removed from the world in the days of Noah? The wicked or the righteous?
