TFAB Homework

August 12th, 2008 Posted in Sideblog

You gotta love a little homework.  For those of you that were not there on Sunday morning you are going to need to do a little homework or perhaps some catch up work because we spent 51 minutes defining terms that are hugely important for our understanding of bible eschatology.  We began to look at Harpazo (RAPTURE) I prefer the term snatched it just sounds cooler and it is the biblical definition of the term used in 1 Thess 4:17.  We also looked at Tribulation also known as the great tribulation, or time of Jacobs trouble which is that 7 year (Some say 3.5) period of time talked about in dan 9 24-27, Matt 24, and Revelation 6-19.  We talked about the BEMA Seat Judgment of Christ 1 corinthians 3:9-13, 2 Cor 5:10, and the Second ADVENT or COMING of Christ.  We also began discussing the possible biblical timeline for the Rapture of the church.  Pre TRIB- Before the Tribulation, Mid Trib In the Middle, and a Post Trib Rapture of the Church, which means after the Tribulation.  All of these are defined under one category of Eschatological thought which is PRE-Millennial.  We also looked at Post-Millennial, and Amillennial.  MORE terms for you to now define.  I am looking forward in the weeks to come of showing why we believe what we believe concerning the rapture and the importance of having a opinion on it.  May God Bless you as you do your homework or as you cheat and listen to the study now uploaded in the teachings area.
