Pseudo-Ephraem DOES teach the Rapture!

"For all the saints and elect of God are gathered, prior to the tribulation that is to come, and are taken to the Lord lest they see the confusion that is to overwhelm the world because of our sins." -Pseudo-Ephraem This is in response to Pseudo-Ephraem does not teach the Rapture! I would like to address some of the statements made by this website. "The false teachers who believe pre-tribulation Rapture theology desperately misuse an ancient document called, "Pseudo-Ephraem" as proof that someone before 1830 AD believed it." I first want to take issue with calling those who teach the pre-tribulation rapture "false teachers". The Bible defines a false teacher as 1)One who denies Jesus is Christ (1Jo 2:22), 2)one who preaches a different gospel, which is defined as the good news concerning Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection, according to the Scriptures (Gal 1:19), and 3)Exhibits qualities that are unbecoming of a Christian ...

Pre-trib Typologies - Ruth and Boaz

Ruth and Boaz The story of Ruth and Boaz is a picture of the rapture. The story begins with a Jewish woman named Naomi who losses everything when her husband dies and she decides to return to Bethlehem with her daughter-in-law Ruth, whose husband also died.

Boaz was a kinsmen redeemer for Ruth, whom he took as his bride. Likewise Christ is our kinsmen redeemer who will take us, the church, as His Bride. During Wheat harvest a threshing board was used to separate cereals from their straw. Incidentally the Latin word for this farm instrument was called a tribulum, which is where we get the English word tribulation. Before the wheat harvest we find Ruth...

Pre-trib Typologies - How a priest was conscreted in the Old Testament

Image
The Typology of how a Priest was consecrated in the Old Testament:    A type is a biblical person, thing, action, event, ceremony, structure, furniture, number,  etc. that foreshadows an "antitype" of the same in the New Testament. The consecration of the priest in the Old Testament mirrors the walk of the believer in the New Testament.  The Tabernacle that God commanded Moses to build can be seen as a "type" of the church. The tent that covered the Tabernacle was called the "tent of meeting" because it was here God promised to meet with Moses and the people. The Courtyard surrounding the Tabernacle represents the world in that the courtyard is filled with sinners and also God's people. Because the court is "typical" of the world, the priest must first "leave the world" before he enters Tabernacle. The Priesthood served as a "type" of the coming of Jesus Christ and of the believer. The priesthood mirrors the Ch...
