The early Christians b...THE APOSTLES' TEACHING<br /><br />The early Christians believed the apostles' teaching. (Acts 2:42 They were continually devoting themselves to the apostles' teaching....)<br /><br /> What was not the apostles' teaching? What was the apostles' teaching, what was their source?<br /><br />The apostles' teaching did not originate from the Pharisees creed books. They did not teach from the Sadducees statement of faith. The apostles did not use the catechisms of the Judaizers as the final authority or as a substitute for the Scriptures.<br /><br />The Scriptures were the source of the apostles' teaching and the words and writings of the apostles were also the Scriptures.<br /><br />Acts 17:2 And according to Paul's customs, he went to them, and for three Sabbaths reasoned with them from the Scriptures......<br /><br />Paul taught from the Scriptures, not from man-made creed books and catechisms.<br /><br />2 Peter 2:15-16 just as also our beloved brother Paul, according the the wisdom given him , wrote to you, 16 as also in all his letters, speaking in them of theses things, in which are some things hard to understand, which the untaught and unstable distort, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures.<br /><br />Peter included the apostles Paul's writing as being Scriptures.<br /><br />The apostles' teaching was from the Old Testament Scriptures and from their own words and letters which were in fact the New Testament Scriptures.<br /><br />The apostles did not teach from the creed books of the Pharisees. The did not use the catechisms of the Judaizers to instruct their brethren in faith and practice. They did not consult the Sadducees statement of faith, in order to teach others.<br /><br />The apostle John wrote the last Scripture in A.D. 95, it was the Revelation of Jesus Christ.<br /><br />A.D. 95 was the last recorded teaching by an apostle.<br /><br />If the contemporary creed books, catechisms, statements of faith, Bible commentaries, so-called new revelation of modern-day apostles, and other extra-Biblical sources are not the exact same teachings of the apostles of the Bible, then, THEY ARE IN FACT, WRITTEN WORDS OF FALSE DOCTRINE.<br /><br />YOU ARE INVITED TO FOLLOW MY CHRISTIAN BLOG. http://steve-finnell.blogspot.com <br /><br /><br /> Steve Finnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12863026367048527526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4402624691025612004.post-58834528598446077512013-03-15T03:59:25.347-07:002013-03-15T03:59:25.347-07:00Hi Brother! thanks for the comment! I have heard t...Hi Brother! thanks for the comment! I have heard the objection (that the rapture was founded in the 1800's) hundreds of times lol, the first thing i can tell you is, the Old Testament refers to the rapture HUNDREDS of times, by using the Bride and the Bridegroom, bride being US the Church, Bridegroom being Christ!, and all do respect brother you should have looked a little further, the Rapture is actually spoken of by 1st 2nd and 3rd Century Church Fathers! if you want a teaching which really helped me find truth on this its Chuck Missler - Rapture, Just youtube it, he has 2 sessions teaching on it, and goes over the MYTH that the rapture was founded in the 1800's.. not true brother, it was simply made more popular in the 1800's, it had been since 1st century and before in OT.<br />The Rapture will be the event that triggers the 70th week of Daniel brother no doubt about it, please just pray to God for the truth on this subject brother, i reccomend Chuck Missler on the rapture, or Mark Biltz on the Feast of trumpets, it will renew your understanding!! God bless bro seek truth!

L.B.]<br /><br />(This article reveals research that is No. 1 on the "hate list" of many "fundy" Christians because it shows that their idolized "rapture" belief - the inspiration behind Lindsey's and LaHaye's all-time bestsellers - is only a 19th century invention and that credit for it long given to John Darby should go to a long unknown 15-year-old girl in Scotland!)<br /><br /><br />Margaret Macdonald's Rapture Chart !<br /><br /> "church" RAPTURE "church"<br />(present age) (tribulation)<br /><br /> In early 1830 Margaret was the very first one to see a pre-Antichrist (pretribulation) rapture in the Bible - and John Walvoord and Hal Lindsey lend support for this claim!<br /> Walvoord's "Rapture Question" (1979) says her view resembles the "partial-rapture view" and Lindsey's "The Rapture" (1983) admits that "she definitely teaches a partial rapture."<br /> But there's more. Lindsey (p. 26) says that partial rapturists see only "spiritual" Christians in the rapture and "unspiritual" ones left behind to endure Antichrist's trial. And Walvoord (p. 97) calls partial rapturists "pretribulationists"!<br /> Margaret's pretrib view was a partial rapture form of it since only those "filled with the Spirit" would be raptured before the revealing of the Antichrist. A few critics, who've been repeating more than researching, have noted "Church" in the tribulation section of her account. Since they haven't known that all partial rapturists see "Church" on earth after their pretrib rapture (see above chart), they've wrongly assumed that Margaret was a posttrib!<br /> In Sep. 1830 Edward Irving's journal "The Morning Watch" (hereafter: TMW) was the first to publicly reflect her novel view when it saw spiritual "Philadelphia" raptured before "the great tribulation" and unspiritual "Laodicea" left on earth.<br /> In Dec. 1830 John Darby (the so-called "father of dispensationalism" even though he wasn't first on any crucial aspect of it!) was still defending the historic posttrib rapture view in the "Christian Herald."<br /> Pretrib didn't spring from a "church/Israel" dichotomy, as many have assumed, but sprang from a "church/church" one, as we've seen, and was based only on symbols!<br /> But innate anti-Jewishness soon appeared. (As noted, TMW in Sep. 1830 saw only less worthy church members left behind.) In Sep. 1832 TMW said that less worthy church members and "Jews" would be left behind. But by Mar. 1833 TMW was sure that only "Jews" would face the Antichrist!<br /> As late as 1837 the non-dichotomous Darby saw the church "going in with Him to the marriage, to wit, with Jerusalem and the Jews." And he didn't clearly teach pretrib until 1839. His basis then was the Rev. 12:5 "man child...caught up" symbol he'd "borrowed" (without giving credit) from Irving who had been the first to use it for the same purpose in 1831!<br /> For related articles Google "X-Raying Margaret," "Edward Irving is Unnerving," "Pretrib Rapture's Missing Lines," "The Unoriginal John Darby," "Open Letter to Todd Strandberg," "Deceiving and Being Deceived" by D.M., "Pretrib Rapture Pride," "Pretrib Rapture Dishonesty" and "Scholars Weigh My Research." The most documented and accurate book on pretrib rapture history is "The Rapture Plot" (see Armageddon Books online) - a 300-pager that has hundreds of disarming facts (like the ones above) not found in any other source.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
