Posted by Joyce on 3/22/2007, 12:46 pm, in reply to "Re: His Appearing and His Coming" I think some clarification might be helpful. I am inclined to agree that the epipheneia is in heaven, but the parousia is in the clouds of earth's sky. But are you saying that the epipheneia is some years before the parousia? If so, that would mean that there would be a resurrection of believers years before His parousia. But there is no mention of such a resurrection. On the other hand, if you are saying that the epipheneia is separated from the parousia by moments and is, in essence, a characteristic of the parousia, then I agree.
