Trying to understand the rapture? Paul spells it out for us. 2Th 2:1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, ...by our gathering together unto Him.... 2Th 2:2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. ...day of Christ... 2Th 2:3 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; ...that day (when we are gathered to Jesus/day of Christ)... will not arrive until the apostasy happens and the man of sin be revealed. He even warns you not to let any man deceive you in these matters. Peace, PTT
Rev 14:8, 17:,1,2, 19:2, today's Christianity is mixed with some truths of the bible and some; wine of false doctrines the Churches Rev 12:6-14, (538AD-1797AD) namely the Protestant Reformation of the dark ages, inherited from the antichrist, the Papacy on 7 hills Rev 17:9, Vatican City. Dispensationalism is one of them through Jesuit Francisco Ribera 1590, made popular by John Nelson Darby 1830 and the Scofield reference bible. The Churches has rejected Historicism given by Christ and have accepted fables taught by teachers having itching ears, which the people love it so; 2 Tim 4:3.
Matthew 24:24-27 KJV - 4 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. 25 Behold, I have told you before. 26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. 27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. Jesus warns; one of the false prophecies would be His return. Secret or visible and audible. Vast majority of Christendom as the unbelieving Jews who did not understand prophecy, believe in a secret rapture or a secret appearance of Christ which is not supported by scripture.
Yep, Matthew 24:29-31 confirm it will be "immediately after the tribulation of those days" when the sign of the Son of Man appears in heaven, visible to the whole earth, before the elect are gathered. There's no room for confusion unless one is wanting to believe some source above God's word.
Whoa, did I have it all wrong. I actually thought that Jesus shed His Blood for all that would receive him. That there is no Salvation outside of Him. The Jewish Apostles risked theirs live to proclaim the Gospel to the Jews, their kinfolk. I wonder why thy would even bother do that since they were the Chosen people? Jesus is both the true Temple and the Seed of Abraham. The Jews broke the Covenant, thus the need for a new and Everlasting Covenant. The Law, Prophets and Psalms were fulfilled in Jesus. That smooth talking Prophets could / would actually deceive and tickle the ears he Church of Jesus Christ for their own gain. That the Body of Christ actually need to search and rightly divide Scripture for themselves.
Very interesting, thank you.
Thanks
