To: Mr. Jeeves
"We all are better than you all, and God's going to take us home first."

The entire issue of a premillenial rapture is the least of egoistic thinking. Just as our Lord and Savior was removed and cut off at the end of Daniel's 69th week, Church Age was provided by God prior to the completion of the 70th week. When our Lord ascended, it was not for himself, but in obedience to the Father, who gave him His third commission and title.

The Church Age provides the body for Christ which will be purified and become His bride. For those who are in fellowship with Him, there is no need for a Great Tribulation.

Although the posts of many who seek to attack His plan by demonizing the doctrine of dispensations is intended for evil, He is now using it for His good. Myself and a number of other believers remaining in fellowship with Him have been afforded opportunity to further study and communicate His Prophecy which He prepared in eternity past so that His Church may be edified and further completed for eternity future, not by our will, but by His.

Thanks for the post.

There is a subtle implication here that those whom you oppose, you judge to not be in fellowship with Christ. That is not your place, nor your calling, to determine who is and is not in fellowship with Him. You do not establish your view by tearing others down, and calling those who disagree with you to be "out of fellowship" with Christ.

It could be said that such an attitude proceeds from a prideful spirit, but I will make no judgment of that. I would rather ask you to refrain from provocative language such as this, and realize that we all know in part, not completely. You have no corner on the Truth.
