Concerning Jesus Coming

Hi Pastor

               very good arguments on why no pretrib rapture ay I add Romans 11:17 says And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;

11:18 Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearest not the root, but the root thee. this is boasting when we say we are seperate from israel eph 2:11-22 says the gentiles are a part of the comonwealth of israel and our of the house hold of God. He has made one new man. the new covenant is with the house of judah (southern kingdom jews) and house of Israel ( Northern kingdom those who are grafted in gentiles heb 8:8 jer 31:31) those who were afar off eph. 2:13 1peter 2:10 we were not a people ( lo ammi hosea 1:9)and had not obtained mercy ( lo -ruhmah hosea 1:6). I like you used to belive pretrib rapture but I see more evidence for the post rapture. I share your fear of believers falling away when we go through jacob's trouble and will doubt the bible and its promises. my question to all bible believers in matt 24 who are the elect in verses 22; 24; and 31 are they disciples (christians) of  messiah or are they jews like the pretrib teachers what us to believe john 8:31-32
