Absolutely Must See (if not watched already) !!!

Please watch this exciting presentation on Biblical prophetic truth ...

Do you believe in the 'rapture' (secret or otherwise)? Do you believe in life after death, going straight to heaven or hell, that heaven will be on the earth someday very soon, or that Jesus will return to restore His Kingdom here on the earth ?

This video will give Biblical truth on the reality of what IS to come very soon!

I watched this last week Teranno =)

You know, I was a through-and-through pre-millenialist (because this is how eschatology was first presented to me). But some of my peers are a-millenialists; I resonate with some of their POVs, but I can't help but think Revelation (certainly the chapters after John's address to the churches) is a narrative and not merely symbolism...

The Left Behind series, which were very popular 7-8 years ago, took a pre-millenial stance...

The only difficulty with the 'left behind' series is that it is a theology that is only loosely based around two consecutive Bible verses found in Matthew 24:40&41 and repeated in Luke chapter 17.

Nowhere else in the Bible can you find this 'secret rapture' theology. I think that these verses that I have described above, when they are taken in context, Jesus states explicitely that He is referring to when he returns in His second coming. I depict the scene visually in my main blog picture as it is one occasion I personally am looking forward to with all my heart.

If the 'secret rapture' theories were to hold any ground, then what would the purpose of Jesus coming back be ? All those who are to be saved would be saved. And all those who were not saved, would already know when Jesus would return approximately. That would create a complete anti-thesis to everything that Jesus states in His teachings to 'watch' and 'be ready'. A theme that is also repeated many times throughout the NT. There is no 'secret rapture' prelude to the second coming - this is a man-created false theology.

TBH - I don't know how you would pigeon-hole my belief with '- millennialist' as I believe that Jesus will return to the earth, without actually setting foot on the earth. He will reign in heaven throughout the 1000 years (Millennium), then the New Jerusalem (heaven) will descend to the earth for final and absolute judgment of the wicked. God's kingdom will be justified and be established on the earth for all eternity.

Is there a description for this belief as I am not sure that there is ? But it is Biblical !
