Why is when the rapture / resurrection a hotly contested thing? It was not even debated until 200 years ago. Look into the lives of those who promoted this doctrine, like C.I. Scofield and you might consider this very suspect. Jesus said by their fruit ye shall know them. Jesus tells us plainly in Matthew 13:24 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: 25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed (weeds) tares among the wheat, and went his way. 26 But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also. 27 So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares? 28 He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? 29 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together FIRST first the TARES (WEEDS) tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn. (first the tares WEEDS get gathered, then wheat last) could it be any more plain than this? Matthew 13:36 Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field. 37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man; 38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one; 39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. 40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.

Pastor Renner thank you for ihe msgs. Very encouraging and strengthening.

My 15 year old daughter said to me that she still wants to experience life and prefers Jesus to come back much later. I told her that we are like fish inside a dirty aquarium that needs cleaning. I told her that there is nothing she will miss on the old earth. I told her that in the second coming of Jesus that she will come back to new earth and enjoy it without all the sickness pain and hardship.

Thank you for this teaching I learned a lot 🎉

What a timely message . . . I have stopped listening to ALL of it. I watch your programs, read Sparking Gems and my Bible and only fellowship with like-minded people . . . that's all I need!

But the quickening is already happening and many people are being saved

I can't wait to meet Jesus Christ!

I need more Jesus Christ, I need more. Still have things I want out my life, I don’t want to be left here, and I don’t want my family left, I keep saying, I refuse my family to be spoils for the enemy!

The Greek language was much more descriptive than the king james translators were able to access at the time. Many translators today have a much better understanding and access to Aramaic and Greek language so they can describe the letters better.

I have both books.

Wow - awesome! Serious question - what is going to happen to our pets when we leave the earth?

What translation? Deception and apostacy are happening like never before. Guard your heart!

WOW!!! amazing. I am really blessed. Hope I got it all right... 2 Thessalonians 2:1-2 (KJV) 1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, 2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. Beseech - erōtaō - to pull the rant - to speak from a position of privilege and authority. Paul is asking the Thessalonians to obey him as he is their spiritual father. Expectation that the request will be heard, honoured, obeyed and satisfied. A command and not a suggestion. Coming - Parousia - Not just a physical coming but a special emphasis on this word is placed on the presence of the Lord among His people. But here it describes the strong presence of God that will be felt when Jesus returns to gather His people to Himself and implies that a phenomenal presence of the Lord will be felt by the church when it is time for Jesus to come and to collect His people for himself at the end of the age. There will be a strong presence of God among His people, they will have a knowing. (Romans 8:14) - Holy Spirit will bear witness. Supernatural quickening by the Holy Spirit that it is time. Gathering together - episunagōgē - very specific Greek word used rarely. Moment in the future when God will finally gather His people to Himself. It is used here to describe the future moment when the Lord will quickly gather his people to himself at the end of the age. soon - tacheōs - something that happens very swiftly or quickly shaken - saleuō - to shake , waver or to be moved. The tense points to events that cause shock or alarm. An event or repeated events, so unexpected that it results in shock or distress. It depicts worry and inward anxiety resulting from outward events that keep occurring repeatedly again and again and it’s as if there is no pause between shocking, debilitating and nerve wracking happenings. Also translated as Jumpiness or nervousness. Mind - nous - mind, will and emotions  soul Troubled - throeo - an affirmation of the word shaken - inward fright that causes one to be filled with worry, anxiety or fear. The tense points to an ongoing state of worry and anxiety resulting from outward events that keep occurring repeatedly as if there is no pause between these shocking, debilitating, nerve wracking happenings. People feel lambasted from every sides, they let it affect their mind and emotions, and it is just shaking them up. Spirit - pneuma - (in this context) weird spiritual experiences or weird spiritual utterances that are out of sync with the revealed word of God. Weird revelations or euphoric, ecstatic proclamations that have no root in doctrine, but produce the negative effects of spiritually upsetting people. In other words, people are making bizarre statements like the Lord is come already. You are left behind. They make is sound so spiritual that it sounds like the Holy Spirit speaking. Word - logos - sayings, speakings, preachings - (in this context) rumors Letters as from us - fabricated letters as if they were written and send from Paul or inspired from Paul’s teachings. At hand - enistemi - it's present, already come. 2 Thessalonians 2:1-2 (RIV) 1 Brothers, listen carefully. For I am asking you in the strongest of terms to hear what I am about to say and to do exactly what I am asking you to do. The appearance of the Lord Jesus Christ is very near. In fact, it is so close that we can nearly feel His presence as, if He were already here among us. The moment we have longed for and waited for is almost upon us. I am talking about that moment when Jesus will finally gather us all together for Himself. 2 Some things will be happening right before His coming that could shake you up quite a bit. I am referring to events that will be so dramatic that they could leave your head spinning. Occurrences of such a serious nature that many people will end up feeling alarmed, panicked, intimidated and unnerved. Naturally speaking, these events could put your nerves on edge and make you apprehensive and insecure. Oh’ how I wish I could tell you these incidents. We are going to be just a one shot deal, but when they finally get rolling, they are going to to keep coming and coming one after another. And that’s why you got to be determined not to be shaken or moved by anything you see or hear. You need to get a grip on your mind and refuse to allow yourself to be traumatized by these events. If you let these things get to you, it won’t be too long until you are a nervous wreck. That is why you got to decide beforehand that you are not going to give in and allow fright to penetrate its way into your mind and emotions until it runs your whole life. I also want to tell you not to be too surprised if people start making weird spiritual proclamations and off the wall utterances during the time just before the Lord comes. All kinds of strange things are gonna happen during those days. It’s going to get so bizarre that you might even receive a letter from some person who claims that the day of the Lord is already come. And who knows? They might even attach our name to it alleging to have our endorsement or they might even send it as if it were written by us.

Where did all that extra content come from? I did not see anything saying in the scriptures that we are VIP's and that we deserve to be so. True we are God's people but it is by his grace not by deserving it. Truly we long for this redemption of our faith! Even so, come Lord Jesus!
