I am not desperate in the least. I know the truth.The call for all the dead to rise and stand before God in Judgment. Revelation 20:11-15
Paul says it in 1 Cor 15:50=56, his prophecy about that event.
You dwell on earth and there is no scripture that says you ever leave it.
What pretentious nonsense!
Rev 4:1-2 just says how John was taken up to heaven, not bodily but in the Spirit. He did not go there to live there.
Getting desperate now, aren't you?
None of your so called proofs, say there will be a 'rapture'.
I have posted the Alternative to the rapture, which proves that all the faithful Christian peoples will live in all of the holy Land.
THAT is our destiny and our great privilege!
There’s inference needed to see the rapture in Rev 3:10. Only “those who dwell on the earth” are subjected to the “the hour of trial that is coming on the whole world, to try those who dwell on the earth.”
Do you understand that last quotation from Rev 3:10 (ESV)? The “hour of trial” will involve the whole world. The sole purpose of the “hour of trial” is to “try those who dwell on the earth.”
“Those who dwell on the earth” is a reference to unbelievers, only.
Here’s where the inference comes in: If the earth is populated only by “those who dwell on the earth,” then we are not on the earth. You see?
With Jesus doing the talking in Rev 3:10, I know from His earlier statements (John 14:2-3), that He will come back to take us to where He is. Jesus is in Heaven, and He will come back and take us to Heaven, all within the confines of Acts 1:9-11. That means He will come back, before the Trib, and take all the dead in Christ and we who are left, into Heaven, without any unbelievers able to see a thing.
Prove this inference is not valid.
