A number of folks have merely gone to Scripture to try and see what Scripture presented pro or con

The fact that there is a pre-trib rapture position and that it started only in the historically recent past requires first that one ask where it came from and, after that, to ask how it is that people ignore clear scriptural teachings that contradict it because, absent a pre-existing belief in it, there is no scriptural teaching that supports it.

That

false.

Actually more than a time or 3. Can't find my specific post . . .

Ahhhhhh . . . Evidently you have not read my post 92 above.

I don't think the author's language was unclear. Are you calling 306-373 A.D. recent? or at the latest 565-627 recent? That would be a new definition of recent that I'd not been familiar with. Though, I still want to ask God about 2,000 years SOON, too! LOL.

BTW, there is PLENTY of Scriptural support for the Pre-Trib position. I hope to get it posted within a week or 2.
