Post 135 by Cvenger includes : "The Father and the Son don’t beat up the Bride before they come and fetch her for the wedding feast."
YOU said they wouldn't beat the bride up before the wedding. The tribulation consists of nothing that hasn't already happened to the Church. You know that if your statement from your foregoing point about beating up the bride prior to the wedding feast makes any sense at all than you have to explain why they've been beating the bride for two thousand years.
Don't feign ignorance of your own argument. Tell me why the beating of the bride for the past two thousand years is any different than what you said about beating the bride prior to the wedding feast and link you provide only restates that same lame point without answering my question. Now, has Christ stopped beating his Bride? Has the Father stopped beating the Bride of Christ?
I believe the above statement isn't quite true. Our topic is the Great Tribulation.
Mat 24:21 (21) For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
