Do the “elites” believe the Rapture is imminent?

Someone has to be in charge...He is the Father..but they are still One...maybe you need this thread to understand it all? I’ve made it very simple...
Of course there is only one goddess for you.

But would you make her a genocidal bitch?

In God's eyes anybody who rejects Jesus DESERVES to be slaughtered because they're useless failed human beings, good for nothing. As I've said before he's not some wishy-washy bleeding heart social worker, that's why I like him...:p

"How much more severely do you think a man deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of God under foot....it is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God" (Hebrews 10:29-31)
Care to check your moral sense?

On Jesus dying for you.

It takes quite an inflated ego to think a god would actually die for you, after condemning you unjustly in the first place.

You have swallowed a lie and don’t care how evil you make Jesus to keep your feel good get out of hell free card.

It is a lie, first and foremost because, like it or not, having another innocent person suffer or die for the wrongs you have done, --- so that you might escape responsibility for having done them, --- is immoral. To abdicate your personal responsibility for your actions or use a scapegoat is immoral.

You also have to ignore what Jesus, as a Jewish Rabbi, would have taught his people.
Ezekiel 18:20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.

Deuteronomy 24:16 (ESV) "Fathers shall not be put to death because of their children, nor shall children be put to death because of their fathers. Each one shall be put to death for his own sin.

Psa 49;7 None of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him:

There is no way that you would teach your children to use a scapegoat to escape their just punishments and here you are doing just that.

Jesus is just a smidge less immoral than his demiurge genocidal father, and here you are trying to put him as low in moral fibre as Yahweh.

Well, I have to had it to our resident gnostic clergyman, he is honest about what he stands for. It puts me in mind of the words from the old song by Bob Dylan, “Like a Rolling Stone”...

“You say you never compromise​
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize​
He's not selling any alibis​
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes​
And say do you want to make a deal?”​

In this case, the deal being offered is a main course gnostic deception, served with a garnish of bitter twisting of scripture and a side order of contempt. I’m happy to leave that deal where it is!
You are a lying ass hole and please stay away if that is your idea of good apologetics.

Take your genocidal prick and put your head back up where it usually fits.

Lying scum. You cant argue yourself out of a wet paper bag so resort to lies.

And the Lord said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live.
Numbers 21:8
And the people spoke against God and against Moses...………………..(6) And The Lord sent fiery Serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and many of the Israelite's died!

If God is all-knowing than there is a reason why he destroys people. Like there is no reasonable comparison there to Hitler or some other genocidal tyrant. Hitler used to give troop orders to regiments that didn't even exist.

I can maybe see the argument that God powers create a double standard though. Like for God, killing is not murder, but for a human it is. That is clearly an error in logic. I suppose it really depends on what people believe about justice or mercy.

On the contrary, you waste people’s time by ignoring any good apologetics suggested to you and deflect with the same garbage. You are a playground bully, you simply hate God and those who follow Him, and it’s time people see you for what you are.

You mean DL is a bot?

I guess you might be on to something.
Lol, I'm not at all surprised that the meme flew right over your head, this would be the billionth time.




And I disagree with 70% of what GCB says most of the time but at least the dude can hold a conversation. How old are you Red? 15 or 90?
If you're an adult, then I legitimately believe that you have dementia, no disrespect.

It is remarkable how an accusation of dementia can be cloaked in civility ;-)

The issue I have with regards to DL is that whatever is said is simply responded to rudely and dismissively. On this and other forums, he might have the material so write a pretty good book on Christian apologetics, though it would not follow from the responses he often gives back.

You may be the kind of person who would be happy to discuss topics with someone who responded to considered responses with short, ugly comments and regard that as conversation, but I think that would make you a minority. This lack of quality in interaction would apply even to normal conversations, but becomes a total impediment when discussing spiritual things.

We are coming into a time when people have heard the Gospel, and are choosing where they stand. If I have been at all discourteous to you or DL, I apologise. Part of it is out of frustration on my own inability to penetrate cherished defences.

Coming back round to the OP, I know that non-Christians look at me and think I’m crazy for thinking the Rapture may be immanent. The issue I have is that I wouldn’t want anyone (even those who despise me) to miss it and face what will follow. I can’t expect you to care about my reasoning, but there it is.

I was not joking around, I do legitimately believe you have dementia. You show all the signs, again and again. It's become too obvious. I have known people in elderly homes before and studied enough on mental health to know the symptoms and signs.

I'm not sure what you're getting at mate, for a start God didn't die on the cross, Jesus did.
And atheists and nonchristians don't give a damn about Jesus dying for them, how ungrateful can they get, so no wonder God is miffed with them and who can blame him?
The bottom line is that if there are going to be atheists and nonchristians in heaven, I swear to God I don't wanna go, but I know there won't be any of them there or it'd be a case of "oops there goes the neighbourhood"..:D

It depends what you mean by "Rapture" mate, I can't find the word in the Bible, so is it some cult belief or what?

That just gave me a wry smile. It’s like the word “Trinity” - the concept is there it the word was created later to describe that concept.

You might know this already, but the word “lonely” didn’t enter the English language till Shakespeare used it (I think to describe a dragon sitting on its own in a marsh), yet people before that time still experienced the emotion we now call loneliness.
