Yo; Jerry Shugart twin; you've changed the subject toward what you are really up to through baiting once more.
ECT 2 Thess 2:1-2 proves the rapture theory wrong.

Yo; Jerry Shugart twin; you've changed the subject toward what you are really up to through baiting once more.
Why is it that you expect me to answer your questions, but you won't answer my questions?
Why do you keep asking me questions?
I thought you said you weren't going to answer any more of my questions?
You need to make up your mind Danoh.
I asked that question in general.
I then answered it.
Wasn't really asking you as you were proven wrong years ago:

Context matters.
Paul didn't use the exact same phrase "The coming of our Lord Jesus Christ" to describe two different events.
Read the rest of the Thessalonian letters. Paul doesn't go back and forth talking about a rapture and the second coming of Christ.
What I'm up to is trying to understand how you MADists can claim the phrase "The coming of our Lord Jesus Christ" refers to two completely different events in the following two verses to the Thessalonians:
(1 Thess 3:13 KJV) To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.
(2 Thess 2:1) Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,

Good idea. You cannot read them and believe they were appointed to wrath.
They weren't appointed to wrath.
(1 Thess 5:9) For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,
The wrath was to come to the unbelieving Jews in Judah.
Thessaloníki is in Greece.

(2 Thess 2:7) For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back will continue to do so till he is taken out of the way.
Paul wrote to the Thessalonians around 52-53AD.
Claudius was the emperor of Rome, but Nero had already begun influencing the Roman Empire. A few months after Paul's letter to the Thessalonians, Nero became emperor.
Here, let me help you with that - understand all you were proven incompetent in years ago in the link below, and your need to distort passages such as those two will no longer be an issue :chuckle:

Of course, in the unlikely event of that miracle, you can then continue to bait others as the new Mid-Acts Jerry :chuckle:

"The coming of our Lord Jesus Christ" does not refer to two completely different events in the letters to the Thessalonians.
Only Darby followers claim such nonsense.
That's what Darby followers attempt to do in order to try and make the false teachings of John Nelson Darby fit the Bible.
Dispensationalism is a mess.
Need to fix your link.
Every time you post it, it comes up as "not found".
He's still got some slice in him.
But you have been cast from the drawer and into the dump.
(Ecc 10:10) Using a dull ax requires great strength, so sharpen the blade. That's the value of wisdom; it helps you succeed.

The day of the Lord is an overarching term. It includes all events of the last days including the return of Christ.
The Day of The Lord is any day He says so
