Jesus tells us to stay awake and watch. Where does the scripture tell us to figure out the date of his return?
Matthew 24 has not been fulfilled. First, the gospel must be preached to all tongues.
No date picking....it isnt kosher. If the Son of God didnt know the date, no way on earth anyone here does either
The Bible says that no one knows when the Rapture will be. So you can bet that when someone sets a date, then the Rapture will NOT be then.
We’ll know when it gets here.
Look ... I’m glad you believe what the Bible says, in that there really is going to be a Rapture ... but ... you’re going to have to leave off the dates.
I do see that the Bible tells us that we’ll know the season of his coming, but that doesn’t mean we can set a calendar with it (in terms of the Rapture). I do see - on the other hand - that we can predict, down to the very day itself, when Jesus comes back to earth to set up his Kingdom — once the Tribulation time has started.
Right now, the most I’m willing to say about it (the Rapture) is that it looks like it will be sometime during my lifetime, if I live it out normally.
HOWEVER ... do come back and talk to us again on January 5th ... :-) ...
As the Good Book says, it will come like a thief in the night, no one knows the date or time.
No one but God the father knows the date and time of the end of the world.
Besides that, the rapture is not believable, where some are taken and some left behind.
We’ll never know, as we’ll be dead when it happens.
Whomever gets the date right will get no credit because we will all be gone!
LMAO!!!!!
We went through this last year with the Mayan calendar. Comet ISON also figured into predictions for this year. I could probably dig into the Bible and make any date I choose seem reasonable. Just keep walking the walk and it doesn’t matter when the road ends.
You mention your puzzle. Care to enlighten us as to your logic/evidence? I actually have a different date in mind—also based on clues I’ve been seeing.
Since I’m “Post trib, pre-wrath”, I think we have at least another 3.5 years.
I came across this study on the subject a few years ago: http://www.watchmanbiblestudy.com/biblestudies/Definitions/PreTrib.htm
To be clear, I was pre-trib when I first became a Christian (I went to an AG church). Then I studied the subject...
About an instant after G_d decides that it is time.
Harold Camping already did this. thrice!
when the Scriptures relate that NO ONE knows the time they mean NO ONE.
yes were close..but what is close?
there is no almost in Prophecy
my birthday is Jan 2, 1914....please postpone it until then...I love Cake!!!
If you know for a fact that the Rapture will occur in the next two weeks, I imagine that you have quit your job and did not make that December mortgage payment.
All I’m going to say is that I’m not buying any green bananas.
