Rene and Doves:

 

The BLESSED HOPE applies to any age...I read a turn-of-the-century true book by a woman evangelist, and she was looking for the rapture at any time then.

 

If you choose to 'have a lot of questions', fine. No human, no matter how dedicated to the Lord and in a certain capacity, has 100% of the truth....we still contend with a fallen nature although we have been saved by the blood of Jesus.

 

With those things said, I have two scripture references for you, Rene:

 

II Timothy 2:23 to 25B

 

Avoid foolish and ignorant disputes, knowing that they generate strife.  A servant of the Lord must NOT quarrel but be gentle to all, able to teach, patient, in humility correcting those who are in opposition.

 

Matthew 18:1 thru 4

 

The disciples came to Jesus saying, "Who then is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?" Then Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in the midst of them, and said, "Assuredly, I say to you,

unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by NO means enter the kingdom of heaven.

Therefore, whoever humbles himself as this little child is the

greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

 

Just want to end this by saying, yes....I'm pre-trib and believe the rapture is very, very close.  I also believe MOST of what Kat Kerr said about heaven because the Holy Spirit within bears witness to the truth of what she says. I would recommend her books and CD's to anyone, without hesitance.
