"The Greek prefix "anti-" in itself indicated the desire to take someone's place and, consequently, to go against that person; and it is this latter meaning that prevails in the modern prefix." Giuseppe Fornari
And I might add, until recently 'in lieu of' was a lesser used prefix meaning or usage of 'anti'. So before the Real Christ you have the deception, as it seems at least to me. It wouldn't really be much of a deception to deceive the elect if they were already raptured away, no? I hope I'm wrong and its crowburger time, nom nom nom.
--------------
Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. – 2 Thessalonians 2:1-4

For too many it will be at the end of the Millennial Reign.
I want to know the thoughts of God. Everything else is just details. A Miracle is when God makes His Reality our Experience

Gog v. Magog timeframe, correct?
Did I mention I meant to delete this?
Mostly because I don't want to have to put together the study that this is going to require, and can be argued as a matter of interpretation. But, if you'll grant me some time, I'll get back to you.

it's just one of those things,if you don't believe it's pretrib, you can't see the promise. I won't let anyone steal my hope again, because living the other way sucks. It really does! I much rather wait for Jesus every day than in a few years. I tried both, I can see both sides, so I made a choice. The choice that keeps me on my toes.

I refuse to discuss this topic anymore. It really splits us. One way or another someday we will be brought into unity on this subject.

This is something that I am new to studying actually. In 08' 09' I was familiar with the pre/mid/post/never teachings, but I never paid any mind to actually putting my nose into the study, even though I had a dream about something to the effect of being raptured, but I digress. Today it's something I find very interesting, especially when you consider the Vaticans plans for disclosure, the TV show on HBO, and the upcoming Nick Cage movie. Matter of fact, after I post this I am going to watch Gary Stearmans presentation on Pretrib.

It's quite possible we're all right, each to his/her own calling.
In John 21, Peter hears from the resurrected but not yet ascended Jesus, of his own future days on earth and asks him what awaits John:
19 This spake he, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when he had spoken this, he saith unto him, Follow me. 20 Then Peter, turning about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following; which also leaned on his breast at supper, and said, Lord, which is he that betrayeth thee? 21 Peter seeing him saith to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do? 22 Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me. 23 Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should not die: yet Jesus said not unto him, He shall not die; but, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee?

I agree with you Delfi! I'd much prefer to watch and wait for the Lord Jesus!
My mornings are brighter now. Last week I awakened with the knowledge that the antichrist hasn't even showed up yet, it's going to be forever until Jesus gets here!
This week I've awakened with the happiness that Jesus can come today!!!! Woot! It has absolutely lifted my spirits!
