@BibleU777 @JasonDa28977361 @pomsrule5 I was thinking the same thing, we get glorified bodies!

The Church and the Time of Jacob’s Trouble

It is understandable why so many Christians errantly believe the Church will remain on earth during the coming Time of Jacob’s Trouble (aka The Great Tribulation).

The reason this view has remained so prolific is because of the errant teachings found within Covenant Theology, namely due to redefining Church and Israel. Much clarity is gained when we recognize that Covenant Theology, being a Supersessionist framework, teaches (foolishly) a redefinition of the Church and a redefinition of who Israel is.

When did the Church begin?
The Church began at Jerusalem on the Jewish holiday of Shavuot (Pentecost) as all Jews (Acts 2). This beginning of the Church was years before God extended redemption to gentiles as confirmed by Peter’s vision and by the first Church Council (Acts 10-11).

Who Is Israel?
Israel is not the Church, but are descendants of those through whom God made the Abrahamic covenant with: Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

When Christians are errantly taught that the Church existed at creation of man, rather than beginning at Jerusalem according to Acts 2, and that the Church is Israel, then it’s not a hard thing to conclude that the Church will go through the Time of Jacob’s Trouble.

So, again, it is understandable why so many Christians believe the Church will remain on earth during the coming Time of Jacob’s Trouble (aka The Great Tribulation).

However, when we do not redefine the origin of the Church and when we do not redefine who Israel is, then it is exceedingly clear that the many references which refer to the Time of Jacob’s Trouble have absolutely nothing to do with the Church. Well, of course, when the Christian believes that the Church is Israel, then that clarity become muddies. Again, due to the teachings of Covenant Theology.

This image (see below) list all references in Scripture of the Time of Jacob’s Trouble. Those who demand that the Church is part of what are found in these many passages can do so only by errantly believing that the Church is Israel, which of course, it is not.

Conclusion
The coming Time of Jacob’s Trouble has nothing to do with the Church and everything to do with Israel, the chosen nation God will use to operate His kingdom from.

@Matthew56193629 @sola_chad Yes they are, God has already brought some of them back to the land, can it not be any more clear that God isn’t finished with them.

[Connor @ConnorM42436641]

@napleszionist @sola_chad Sorry for another response but also Romans 11:1 it says has God cast away his people? God’s people there are referring to ethnic Israel.

[Connor @ConnorM42436641]

@napleszionist @sola_chad Yep all the verses in the New Testament they strip the context to form a flawed theology. How can you read the Old Testament and prophets, and come to their conclusions. They only love their opinion of scripture.

@JosiahForYeshua @Joel7Richardson If you want to see eisegesis read these comments, today’s just one of those days where this stuff is irritating me bad.

Who are God’s chosen people?

[Connor @ConnorM42436641]

@Matthew56193629 @sola_chad Thank your for staying true to the scriptures, these comments are sad and show the damaging work of replacement theology. The verse they throw in here never say that Jews aren’t chosen.

[Connor @ConnorM42436641]

@ItsjustmeandJC @sola_chad Their reformed theology is a stumbling block for them.

[Connor @ConnorM42436641]

@sola_chad And let me add Romans 11:28-29 here as well.

[Connor @ConnorM42436641]

@sola_chad The Jews are God’s chosen people, Deuteronomy 7:6-8.

[Connor @ConnorM42436641]

@JosiahForYeshua @Joel7Richardson You are correct, it’s a theological system built around to justify their antisemitism. There would be no other reason to twist a text this bad.

For all you “Replacement Theologians”.

@Mark_Wilson_25 @farmingandJesus I agree, it’s very important!

[Connor @ConnorM42436641]

@napleszionist @farmingandJesus Exactly, we have to study so we don’t be deceived.

[Connor @ConnorM42436641]

@farmingandJesus Pre trib rapture, Christ returns at the end of the 7 year tribulation, then the millennium!

@TaiJackson316 @ArianaSergyfb It’s not even worth trying with people like this, they’re just going to quote the same out of context verses when Jesus was talking to the Pharisees.

[Connor @ConnorM42436641]

@LizzieMarbach I haven’t stated otherwise, but you act like you’re being persecuted when you’re not.
