it isn't necessary that you agree, guys. On anything--except maybe that Christ is Lord, imo. Peace |
Apparently Paul did not think disagreeing about a matter was acceptable, and neither does the Lord, for he wrote,m saying,
"... Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; that he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, that he might present it to himself a glorious church, NOT having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and WITHOUT blemish." (
Ephesians 5:25-27).
When brethren are in disagreement about any doctrine of the church it represents a "spot," a "wrinkle, or a "blemish" which stands in desperate NEED of correction. In the words of
I Corinthians 11:19 Paul advises that divisions among brethren indicates the presence of "heresies among you." Certainly such things CANNOT be allowed to prevail among God's chosen people.
Sean, you've become so irrevocably persuaded that your pretrib rapture doctrine is correct and without flaws of any type, you have literally shut the door to anyone, even God Himself, from persuading you otherwise. In that process you do more harm than good to the teachings of the scriptures concerning the matter than you can even imagine. Time will prove you wrong, of that I am assured, but by then it will be too late for the damage will have already been done,
