Greetings Isa. Paul has the church "eagerly awaiting" the rapture (Rom. 8:23) AND the second coming (1 Cor. 1:7). How can we eagerly await both with seven years between them? God bless:)
@@slamdunk4879 I was delighted by your greeting then was confounded by your question. I believe as we occupy till He returns. We can eagerly await the Blessed Hope of His return I also believe when He returns at the second coming, we will be with Him, two happy occasions. In the meantime, I pray every day to be bold in sharing Christ and to live in a manner that is pleasing to Him. Wishing you a blessed day.
@JesusChristKing My prayer is that you not take them out of the world, but that you protect them from the evil one. (John 17:15) According to the scriptures, I believe the church will be present when the Antichrist Christ signs a peace treaty with Israel. Verses in Revelation have the Saints undergoing severe persecution and tribulation. When they witness the signing, they will understand that we are entering the last seven years of the age and the soon second appearance of Jesus Christ. The Rapture theory originated in Europe and is only about two hundred years old, and it's mostly taught in the western world.
Believers will be rescued from the wrath that comes on the whole world. Knowing this truth is a great comfort. Thank you for this message today. Maranatha!
@@danielbelteshazzar-mg7rb You found me my enemy, crouching at my door...spewing forth venom. Proof of the last days, "having a form of godliness...denying the power." Hating without a cause, hating truth. Now go repent, then wash your mouth out with soap. And have a nice day!
@@danielbelteshazzar-mg7rb Its only lies when truth is hidden. Accept the fact God has blinded you to truth for His own purpose. Can the clay vessel say to the potter "Why have you made me like this?" But here is the thing, if you are a believer in Jesus, when the rapture happens, you will have no choice but to be rescued from the wrath of God. Maranatha!
@@danielbelteshazzar-mg7rb The web of deception that you have woven for yourself can not be untangled. All I can say is study to show yourself approved unto God, maybe truth can find you, because it's obvious you can't find it. Just take comfort in this fact, God will lift you from earth to meet Jesus in the air before Antichrist is revealed. It will be great, see you in the air!
Amen. To propel any doctrine other than the Biblical Pre-Tribulation Rapture is to undermine the sacrificial blood atonement of Jesus on the cross for His believers. Believers will be kept from (out of) the Tribulation, but many will come to faith in Jesus during the Tribulation.

@richpalmer9886 oh He didn't, huh? You are mistaken. Jesus even said in Revelation 3:10 that we will be kept from the hour or trial that will come upon the earth to test those that are on the earth... please quit being ignorant like what Paul said in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
@@truther2010 Jesus did not say every Christian will be safe from the hour because of revelation 3:10. He also told other churches that they would be captive to Satan. So which is it? There is nothing in the text to imply. It is a category that God fits people into. These were legitimate churches on major routes during the time of and the book of revelation being revealed to him. It is a common miss teaching that these churches indicate the church today. You may find principles of this in churches today, however, those messages are clearly for those churches that existed during that time.
great answers. may I add also: the reason for the rapture. Or why is there a rapture in the first place? Simple answer. Often overlooked. Judgement is coming. And we're in the way. And why should we be spared? Our well deserved judgment was already put on Christ, on our behalf, at the cross. To even imply that believers should go through the tribulation, whether partially or totally, is a direct insult in the perfect and finished work at the cross for our salvation
absolutely. we are saved form God's wrath (both when it is poured out in the tribluation, and also when its poured out in hell) so there is NO reason for the Christian to be here during that time. There WILL still be new believers coming to Christ during the trib, but they will have to die to enter heaven or for a verrrrry small fraction, survive until the coming of Christ. People can *make up* reasons why the church would be here, but the Bible doesn't leave room for another option so its irrelevant. If you CLEARLY wanna see the pretrib rapture, read KJV Revelation 1:6 and then look at Revelation 5:9-11. It's so apparent there its amazing. If you read it in other translations, the meaning seems to have seriously been tampered with.
@@ivangodin1850 lol yeah that's like why God came to save us. he didn't want us to suffer in hell forever. He wishes not any would perish (in the lake of fire) so yeah I want what God wants!
It's amazing to me how many otherwise intelligent people miss the verses Lee is talking about and who completely misinterpret and force their own interpretations onto Scripture. It is so clear! Thank you, Brother Lee.
YES GOOD BROTHER!!! 1. Jesus gives a promise of escape. Luke 21:34-36 (NKJV) “But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day come on you unexpectedly. For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth. Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.” We are to pray that we might escape? Some will escape? YES! The Church will escape the wrath of God upon the earth because Jesus Christ took that wrath upon Himself. 2. Jesus gives a promise of being kept from hour of trial. Revelation 3:7-10 (NKJV) ““And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write, ‘These things says He who is holy, He who is true, “He who has the key of David, He who opens and no one shuts, and shuts and no one opens”: “I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name. Indeed I will make those of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews and are not, but lie-indeed I will make them come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you. Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.” Jesus gave a glorious promise to the ‘church’ in Philadelphia that they would be kept from the hour of trial that will come upon the whole world. 3. We currently live biblically in a dispensation of grace. 2 Corinthians 5:19 (NKJV) “that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.” We are living in a time period where God is not imputing men’s sins against him in Christ. If you sin right now, you have a Savior! If you confess, He forgives. But soon this time period will be replaced with a time of judgment. Matthew 24:21 (NKJV) “For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.” 4. There are different “Tribulations” taught in the Bible. First there are tribulations, little ‘t’. These are general tribulations and trials that Jesus promised would come to His Church while living on the earth. John 16:33 (NKJV) “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”” James 1:2-3 (NKJV) “My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.” 2 Timothy 3:12 (NKJV) “Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.” Secondly, there is the Great Tribulation, capital “T”. This refers to a specific 7-year period of judgment described in detail through Revelation 6-19. This is also known as the time of Jacob’s Trouble (Jeremiah 30:7) and Daniel’s 70th Week (Daniel 9). The Great Tribulation will come upon the earth from heaven. The general tribulations will come from Satan, the world, and our flesh. The Great Tribulation is called the “Wrath of God”, the cup of His indignation (Revelation 14:10). The child of God, through their faith in Jesus Christ, is not appointed to this wrath. Romans 5:9 (NKJV) “Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him.” 1 Thessalonians 5:9 (NKJV) “For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,” 5. During the Great Tribulation, the Church is singing a new song in heaven! Revelation 5:8-10 (NKJV) “Now when He had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. And they sang a new song, saying: “You are worthy to take the scroll, And to open its seals; For You were slain, And have redeemed us to God by Your blood Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation, And have made us kings and priests to our God; And we shall reign on the earth.” Who can sing this new song? Not the angels. Not the Old Testament saints. Only the church can sing this song, redeemed by the blood of the Lamb!
Yes we are saved form God's wrath (both when it is poured out in the tribluation, and also when its poured out in hell). People can make up why they think the church is suffering during tribuation, but they forget there will be new believers coming to Christ after the Body is gone. Those are the "saints" mentioned in Revelation 6 and onward. the Bible doesn't leave room for the church to be in Daniel's 70th week. Period. If you CLEARLY wanna see the pretrib rapture, read KJV Revelation 1:6 and then look at Revelation 5:1-11. It's so apparent there its amazing. If you read it in other translations, the meaning seems to have seriously been tampered with.
The New Testament was written during the "last days" of the Old Covenant world. Those "last days" were the 40-year transition period; 30-AD to 70 AD. This is why all the eschatological passages in the New Testament were addressed to their first century audience and imminent. - Daniel & Revelation are fulfilled.

Without the church there is no need for a tribulation. The church will be the object of the tribulation. And the dragon was wroth with the woman, (the remnant church) and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, *which keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ* {Revelation 12:17} Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near *in the valley of decision* {Joel 3:14} For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. {Ephesians 6:12} “And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.” {Matthew 24:6} For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. {1 Thessalonians 5:3}

* The Tribulation is not only necessary because it will put an end to this wicked world, but it is also the vehicle that will be used to bring salvation to the Jewish people, thus fulfilling God's promises to His people.
I have. Mr Andy Partridge writes a good tune... but his theology is just plain wrong. It's riddled with 'feelings' and no consideration for the complexities of human reality. Just a lot of overgrown teenage grumbling. Got anything else to add... ? There's not a single thing in that song that hasn't been asked and answered long before.
An atheist had similar complaints against God and spent his life arguing with and challenging Christians with his objections, so Jesus called him to a face to face meeting and gave him a guided tour of hell then sent him back to earth to tell us about what he discovered. You can read his book A Land Unknown by Brian Melvin and watch him tell about it here th-cam.com/video/h2X5uAB692A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=GXd68sHdV0Pusjru
* The Rapture comes first, then the peace agreement, and then the temple. IMO, the sound of the Trump of God, is the voice of God, heard at the time of the Rapture. Read Rev. 1:10--20, and chapter 4 of Rev. You will see that both God and Jesus Christ have a voice as loud as a sound from a trumpet blast. Don't confuse the voice of God with the instruments that the angels blow.
Travailing, Anxiously Awaiting the Sons of God "The whole creation groans and suffers the pains of childbirth together until now." (Rom. 8:22) The Last Days (which ran from 30 A.D. to 70 A.D.) were a time of great upheavals, or "birth pangs," not only for the Church on Earth (Rev. 12:2), and not only for the wicked on Earth, (who were "giving birth" to "destruction" and "wind") (Isa. 26:17-18; Matt. 24:8; Mk. 13:8; I Thess. 5:3), but also for the dead. Hades (Sheol) was under siege, (Matt. 16:18; Rev. 12:7) and the departed saints in Adam were anxiously longing for their impending redemption in Christ, (Lk. 18:7-8; I Peter 4:6; Rev. 6:9-11) and were eagerly expecting to be set free (resurrected) at the revelation of the New Jerusalem (the New Covenant Church). (II Cor. 3:17; Heb. 11:10; Gal. 4:22-31) The eventual birth, or "rebirth," of the dead (Matt. 19:28; cf. Isa. 26:19 NASB, NIV) would not happen apart from the eschatological saints in Christ, who were enduring, suffering and dying with Christ on behalf of the dead. (Matt. 23:34-35; I Cor. 15:29-32; Rev. 6:9-11) The Church, as "firstfruits," had first to be perfected through suffering with Christ before the dead would be "harvested," or gathered, in the end of the age. It was only as the Last Days Church (the period b/t 30 A.D to 70 A.D.) endured to the end that the dead were preserved through the eschatological time of "childbirth" and finally set free (resurrected) in A.D. 70. Paul reiterated this doctrine in I Tim. 2:15: "And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman being quite deceived, fell into transgression. But she [Eve] shall be saved through the childbearing if they [the women of Paul's generation] continue in faith and love and sanctity with self-restraint." (I Tim. 2:14-15) Though Paul was writing concerning women, (vs. 9ff) the doctrine he was teaching was not limited to women (Compare I Peter 3:6). The righteous descendants of Adam and Eve were suffering the eschatological pains of "childbearing," and would be preserved through their throes only as the Body of Christ on Earth endured in the Faith and attained unto the Resurrection of the dead. (Phil. 3:11) - Fulfilled in the first century.
@@georgebentonjr3876 * It is impossible in this short format to prove how wrong you are. My advice would be for you to disassociate yourself from any person and/or writings that you have acquired that has lead you to this abomination of biblical beliefs. Get a good study Bible or two, with a good concordance and start studying a new.
Nobody knows the day or the hour, but He gave us signs to look for to discern the times. Jesus said He is the resurrection, so without Him, there is no resurrection. As confirmed by Paul, we who are alive cannot be caught up until the dead rise first. The dead in Christ cannot be raised until the coming of our Lord. When Jesus returns, He is to destroy the antichrist and if anyone says that Jesus comes before the antichrist declares that there are two second comings which is not Biblical. There are only 2 resurrections, one at His coming and the other is at the completion of His 1000 year reign, as it is written "blessed are those who partake in the first resurrection". So the question is, where in Revelation does it say that the dead are raised? Chapter 11 when the two witnesses are raised which so happens to be at the 7th trumpet. This is what Paul was saying to the Corinthians "in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye at the last trumpet, the dead will be raised". He also said to the Thessalonians "The Lord Himself will descend from Heaven with a shout and with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first". Do you see it? there is no imminent return, that book is called "revelation" for a reason, it reveals the events that lead to the resurrection. Anyone who can't connect these dots are those who live in fear and anyone who lives in fear need to question their faith, as it is written "examine yourselves to see if you're in the faith". In Paul's 2nd letter to Timothy he says that some thought the resurrection had already taken place and because of this, they departed from the faith. My brothers and sisters, do not be that seed that receives the word with joy, then fall away because of trials, persecutions and tribulations.
The Bible says that the wicked will be removed, not the righteous. Proverbs 10:30, “The righteous will never be removed, But the wicked will not inhabit the earth.”
That isn’t speaking of just removal from the earth: removed from God’s grace and presence, removed from the hope of Christ, removed from the beauty of creation and God’s plan of redemption.
@annemurphy9339 Whether the earth or from God's grace, the righteous will never be removed. It is the wicked that are removed. And this is what Revelation shows us as well.
Tribulation separates the wheat 🌾 from the Tares. The elect are gathered last. 41The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather from his kingdom everything that causes sin as well as all lawbreakers. 42They will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. The one who has ears had better listen! You don’t want to be the one that is taken. Read the parable of the Tares. Like I said the ones taken first are burned with fire 30Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn’” (Matthew 13:24-30

@@slamdunk4879 Yes. You just need to learn the genre and literary style of the Scriptures.

@@charlessmith4242 Defending the Scriptures is like trying to defend a lion. That second coming was fulfilled in the first century. Matthew 16:26-28 All things which were written, as Jesus put it, in Luke 21:20-22, must, MUST include Daniel's 70 weeks of Daniel 9:24. He was not fibbing or lacking discernment, you think?
Brother, Rev. 3:10 is a promise to one church that had already "kept the word of his perseverance." Besides, God can protect his people in other says than removing them from the earth. At best it would be a pretrib rapture for only those who have already suffered much "for his name." Look also at Rev. 2:10. Will you claim that also for the whole church? Amen?
* What is written to one of the 7 churches was also sent to all of the 7 churches, read Rev. 1:11. Also, note that at the end of each message to each church it's written, " He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches." Churches is plural, meaning what was written to one church was to be heard by the other churches. The timeline of the message to the Church at Smyrna corresponds to the timeline that the church suffered during Roman persecution. The timeline for the Church at Ephesus corresponds to the first century AD. The timeline for the Church at Pergamum corresponds to the birth of the Roman Catholic Church. Thyatira is the dark ages. Sardis is a continuation of the darkness and includes the Reformation. Philadelphia is the revival that occurred at the Great Awakening. And, the Laodicean timeline corresponds to the churches of today. Here is an example of how a message from God can be applicable to those at the time it was written, but also down through history. Only by observing history, and then recognizing that what was written to the 7 churches 2,000 years ago has been played out over the course of the history of the Church Age leading up to the end of this Age. God can do pretty much whatever He wants, but to protect all Christians believers from the destruction that will come upon the whole earth is not very profitable. God will prepare a place for the Nation of Israel, but even then only 1/3rd will remain alive to enjoy the promise of the Millennial Kingdom, Zech. 13:8--9. God will remove His bride ( as any good husband would do ) from the wrath that will come upon the whole earth. Israel must go through the Tribulation, and those Israelites that finally accept their Messiah, during the Tribulation, will be allowed to enter into their promised Kingdom. The rest will be lost.
What I'm saying is that the new covenant atonement is eschatological, and falls into the closing period of the Jewish age. The end in view when “all Israel” is saved is precisely the end addressed by Jesus in Matthew 24 - the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple on one hand, and on the other hand, the ushering in of Israel’s promised new covenant creation [Isaiah 65:17] wherein true righteousness dwells [2 Peter 1:3]. It is as wrong as wrong can be to step into the middle of that short eschatological period of time and break off the imminent future from the past and present action being recorded, and transfer it to some alleged end of the everlasting new covenant age. Christ’s second appearing is connected to His atonement no less than is His death or His entering the Most Holy Place. If He has not yet appeared the second time, then the only logical conclusion is that the atonement is not yet completed, or worse, it was not accepted of God. The problem is resolved when one takes into consideration the role of “atonement” in eschatology and the range of action involved. Israel’s yearly “Day of atonement” typified the once-for-all atonement Christ made. But what did it involve? It consisted of three basic actions on the part of Israel’s high priest-slaying the sacrifice, entering the Holy of Holies with its blood to make atonement in the presence of God, and his returning and appearing to Israel at the door of the tent. His return was anxiously awaited by Israel for it signaled God’s acceptance of the atonement. The atonement, therefore, was not completed when the sacrifice was slain, nor when the high priest entered the Most Holy Place, but when he returned the second and final time. (Bear in mind that the priest entered twice with the blood of the sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people, Hebrews 7:27. The latter was the main focus of his return and of a consummated atonement.) In Hebrews 9 the same pattern of action is ascribed to Christ’s fulfillment of Israel’s atonement. And it is not accidental that what is said of His making atonement is prefaced with that is said in chapter 8 about the new covenant for taking away the sins of Israel and Judah. Now read carefully the recording of Christ’s atoning action in 9:23-28: first, the offering of the sacrifice (Himself), second, Christ’s entering with His own blood into the true Most Holy Place to make atonement, and third, His returning or appearing “a second time, apart from sin, for salvation” to those eagerly waiting for Him [v.28]. - Fulfilled in the first century AD
Use caution with dogmatic speakers, for your own sake, and read the Bible, pray to the Holy Spirit for understanding in His timing you will receive, not your own. Based on Paul’s teaching, the final AC has to be revealed before the gathering together with Christ in the clouds, it’s what the discussion was about. The snatching away of the Church is Seal 6, no doubt. Think about this also, the rapture will in no way be a secret event, as many think. Seal 6 shows us people will run out of any dwellings in fear, Believers will know and go out and look up, being snatched up. How can one ascend up like Elijah when you’re inside a structure? Regardless, we are all one in Christ and are to keep the Whole Armour of God🙏🏼❤ OnlyJesuSaves ✝👑📖👍🏼🙏🏼❤

The Secret 🤫 Rapture The Enemy crept into the Church and planted his seed. The Doctrine began to take root in The Church of God about 200 years ago. This Fairy Tail made up by Cyrus Schofield and John Nelson Darby continues to grow primarily in America. Christians today continue to water and prune this Unholy Seed as though it is The Holy Word of God. The return of Yeshua is drawing near. I think it is time to be the Lords Firebrands.

Yes. These are some of the brave few on Earth after the Rapture, who become believers. Notice there is no use of the common terms for Church, believer, saint, in either this passage from Matthew or Revelation? There will be those key remnant of Israel, numbering 144,000 - presumably 12,000 from each of the 12 tribes of Israel who were scattered. As the epistle of James addresses his book to these 12 tribes, it is clear in Scripture that the Israel of Jesus time had not had all the tribes who were scattered around the world, return to Israel.

* What do you call the resurrection of Jesus Christ and those that were taken to Heaven when He rose from Abraham's bosom ( Paradise )? What do you call those people that will be resurrected when Jesus comes in the air for His Church, 1Thes. 416--17? Was not the 2 witnesses resurrected, read Rev. 11:11--12? You did mention the resurrection of the 144,000, but what about the resurrection of the martyred Saints, see Rev. 20:4, 6? There is 4 resurrections that comprise the resurrection of the first fruits.The second resurrection of the dead only has one resurrection.
@@slamdunk4879 1948 Israel is not the ancient Old covenant Israel of the Bible. That is where you go wrong. All historical Israel was saved in the first century. 70 weeks were determined for them, under the Old covenant days.. 1948 Israel has NO special place unlike any other peoples. We are in the New covenant age where righteousness dwells. Christ is our righteousness by faith, to all who believe, no distinction, no end or last days.

You said "be removed from the planet". Isaiah 57:1-2 Take this to heart. Isaiah 26:19-21 Resurrection then the wrath. Revelation 20:4-6 "This is the first resurrection." You will be resurrected. Daniel 12:1:3 This would be delivered from the grave. Honestly at this point you're only trying to defend a doctrine of men with a pre trib rapture doctrine. Revelation 3:10 "Kept the word of my patience..." Revelation 14:12 "Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus." Why would you need patience unless there's something to be patient about? The word of His patience is to endure suffering. We of the faith are the Israel of God.

The restrainer. Beginning with Tiberius, the Jews were under intense imperial disfavor, which continued through the reigns of Caligula and Claudius. As long as Claudius was at the head of Rome, the Jews were prevented to openly persecute the church. However, Claudius was taken out of the way when he was poisoned by his wife, Agrippina, Nero’s mother. This brought Nero to the throne, opening the way for the Jews back into imperial favor; Nero’s wife, Poppaea, was a Jewish proselyte. The antichristian movement (“mystery of iniquity”) that had thus been hidden and repressed under Claudius, was loosed and revealed under Nero. History accords with the Preterist interpretation of end-time events: The dragon, beast, and restraining angel of Revelation twenty are best understood in reference to Rome, the persecution under Nero, and the restraining power of Claudius Caesar, which restrained the persecuting power of the Jew and empire, as long as he continued on the throne. John wrote Revelation in A.D. 63-64

@@charlessmith4242 ""* The Rapture signals the end of the Church Age." end quote Nope. The "rapture" was the second coming and the resurrection and fulfilled at the end of the old covenant Aeon with Moses and the Law as mediator in the first century. Have you heard the Word? It's a soul salvation. It is not an issue of our human tissue, but eternal salvation and righteousness of the redeemed soul. It was NOT, is NOT, a physical removal of the Church from earth. John 17:15, Ephesians 3:20-21 Galatians 5:5, 1 Peter 1:9 Rapture = John 3:3, 5, 16 = born again, that we experience today, but it was the transition and fulfillment of the Old Covenant, to the New Covenant, consummated in Christ to the Church at the Parousia. They were the "terminal" generation 20 centuries ago, not us in the 21st century. Hebrews 1:2, 1 Corinthains 10:11 The Chruch is the New Jerusalem. The New Heavens and Earth wherein righteousness dwells = the promised New Covenant Aeon in Jesus, which we are blessed to live and proclaim to the world. It has no such thing as "last days" or "end times". The Church is God's masterpiece. It is NOT replacement, but the promised, eternal fulfillment in Christ as the Spirit. All can be made right with God through faith in Jesus. This New Covenant has no end or last days. His priesthood has no such features. Isaiah 9:6-7 They in the first century, were at ground zero during the 40-year transition from the Old to the New. To teach that our salvation is not complete until a yet still "second coming' or that the church age has an end, is unnecessarily discouraging and biblically inexcusable.

Although I wish and hope the pretrib rapture is true, it does not appear scripture teaches this. The church was not revealed in the Old Testament. That was part of the mystery Paul talks about. Nowhere in scripture does it teach the church will mot be here for the tribulation. Nowhere. The church is separate from Israel, however, we are not separated in their salvation. We will be here. Buckle up. It’s going to be a bumpy ride.

He doesn't understand "Wrath". Thumos or Orge? Which one since there are two types listed in the NT? Nor does he understand 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 . If you are going to look up the Greek, then you need to look up all of it in context. There is a lot of speculation that he is injecting here. This verse is talking about the return of Christ. Let me explain: 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 16 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, (Ouranos -the visible sky) with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up (Harpazo - “Caught up” to seize on, claim for one's self eagerly ) together with them in the cloud (Nephos -a dense crowd, a multitude, great company.) to meet (apantésis - the act of meeting, to meet (a phrase seemingly almost technical for the reception of a newly arrived official).the Lord in the air. (aér - air, the lower air we breathe.) so we will be with the Lord forever. Heaven (ouranos) is not the the same as Air (Aer) They are two different words with two different meanings and applications. • The destination is not heaven (Ouranos) which is the word used in v.16. The destination is return entourage with Christ to earth to reign on the earth. The imagery is the royal return of a king to His city. • The purpose of the catching away underlines this divine/human encounter, to meet the Lord in the air. To meet (eis apantēsin) was almost a technical term that described the custom of sending a delegation outside the city to receive a dignitary who was on the way to town. • In Acts 28:15 Luke utilizes this word in his description of the way a delegation of Christians from Rome went out to receive Paul and his companions when he approached the imperial city, “The brothers there had heard that we were coming, and they traveled as far as the Forum of Appius and the Three Taverns to meet us” (eis apantēsin). The customary procedure was for the delegation to return to the city with the visiting dignitaries (Acts 28:16; also Matt. 25:6). • Josephus, for example, tells how the citizens of Rome went out to meet Vespasian as their new emperor (who, by the way, had just come from leading the Roman troops in the battles to quell the Jewish rebellion that began in A.D. 66) It works this way: You have a walled city with a watchman on the wall like in Psalm 24:7-10 7 "Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. 8 Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle." The herald blows the trumpet, and shouts the king is returning. The watchman challenges, to which the herald responds back. Then the committee goes out to meet the king. • This is an entrance liturgy. Paul is depicting the return of Christ like a king coming back to his city. Everybody who lived in a walled city knew what the protocol was. Once you knew it was the king, and you heard his herald blow the trumpet, you send out the greeting committee. • They go out from the city, meet the king on the road, and where they go from there is NOT back down the road but into the city. Similarly, Christ is coming from heaven with his angelic and saints entourage, the people on the earth go forth to meet him in a “cloud of witnesses” and return to reign with him on the earth. This is a story about the return of the king and to welcome him back to earth to reign on the earth with those who are raised in Christ. The return of Christ is a major event. “Caught up into the air” does not mean into heaven. The Lord will descend to the earth (Job 19:25; Acts 1:11) where the judgment shall take place. This is called The Parousia. Which is translated “the coming of the Lord”.
John 14:3 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. Where is He? In God the Father's presence. This is why our bodies need to be changed. Revelation 3:10 10 Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial (Peirasmos which means a temptation or test. NOT Thilipsis which means persecution.) that is going to come on the whole world... (oikoumené - the land that is being inhabited, the land in a state of habitation, the inhabited world, that is, the Roman world, for all outside it was regarded as of no account.) ...to test (peirazó - to attempt, test, tempt) ...the inhabitants of the earth. (gé - soil, land, region, country, inhabitants of a region.) Matthew 24:30-31 29 “Immediately AFTER the tribulation (Thilipsis ; persecution) of those days “ ‘the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’ When? After. The sun and moon Scientifically, the earth is held in orbit by the sun. If the sun were to go dark, the earth would freeze in subzero temperatures within 24 hours. Any living being exposed will die within 72 hours. Within a week the earth would become an ice ball and the lack of sunlight and gravity would hurl the earth into space like a baseball being thrown into a field. The earth would be an inhospitable wasteland drifting aimlessly through space. This is not a literal sun turning to darkness and the moon turning to blood being described in the bible. The Sun and Moon - In Jewish thought; the sun represents the light of the messiah Psalm 89:36 - “His seed shall endure forever, And His throne as the sun before Me;” The moon is a witness of the sun and represents the jewish people, according to rabbinic tradition. Sackcloth is worn in mourning. Joel 1:13 - “Gird yourselves and lament, you priests; Wail, you who minister before the altar; Come, lie all night in sackcloth, You who minister to my God; For the grain offering and the drink offering Are withheld from the house of your God.” The parallel is in Matthew 24:10-13 “And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. 11 And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. 12 And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. 13 But the one who endures to the end will be saved.” Isaiah 13:9,10 “Behold, the day of the LORD comes, Cruel, with both wrath and fierce anger, To lay the land desolate; And He will destroy its sinners from it. For the stars of heaven and their constellations will not give their light; The sun will be darkened in its going forth, And the moon will not cause its light to shine.” Because lawlessness will increase, the world will become morally dark and the light of the Messiah (The sun) will become like the sackcloth of mourning. They mourn at the judgment of the Lord. The destruction of Jerusalem in 70 C.E. is an outstanding example of this. Foretelling that event almost 900 years in advance, the prophet Joel wrote (Joel 2: 30-31): “I will give portents in the heavens and on the earth, blood and fire and columns of smoke. The sun itself will be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and fear-inspiring day of YHWH.” Matthew 24:30 & 31 30 “Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples of the earth will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory." Every one will see it. This is not a secret. 31 And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other. Philippians 3:20-21 20 But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, (We aren't awaiting from there, we are awaiting Him who is from there. 21 who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body.
History of the "rapture" doctrine Raptus is the Latin for "seized", from rapture "to seize” or kidnap. In Roman law the term covered many crimes of property, and women were considered property. Think of when a jewelry thief breaks into a tore and starts to break the counter and pull all of the jewels into a bag he is holding. He is violently taking them to himself. This is the meaning of "Harpazo" in the Greek. (1 Thessalonians 4:16) The idea of a rapture as it is currently defined is not found in historic Christianity, and is a relatively recent doctrine originating from the 1830s. The term is used frequently among fundamentalist theologians in the United States. Most scholars agree that the secret Rapture theory was launched into prominence around 1830 by a group of people in Scotland who had become known as the Plymouth Brethren. Under the direction of John Nelson Darby (1800-1882) and others, they began to hold Prophetic Conferences. Supposedly, during one of those conferences, or from a sick bed during those conferences, a charismatic utterance came forth as a prophetic message as though from the Lord through a young, fifteen-year-old Scottish girl named Margaret Macdonald. While in a trance, she received a private vision and revelation that only a select group of believers would be removed from the earth before the days of the Antichrist. But she also saw other believers enduring the tribulation, something most rapturists nowadays do not teach. Darby coupled this highly questionable vision of a secret, pre-tribulation Rapture with another idea originated by the Jesuit priest, Francisco Ribera. Francisco Ribera In 1585 A.D., Ribera invented the idea of interrupting Daniel’s 70-week, end-time prophecy and inserting a “gap” between the 69th and 70th weeks. This was done to deflect accusations from the Reformers who were fueling reformation fervor by claiming the Pope was the Antichrist and the Catholic Church the beast of Revelation. This is historically known as the counter reformation. Ribera surmised that the first 69 weeks (483 years) concluded at the baptism of Jesus in 27 A.D., but God had extended the 70th week into the future. Therefore, the Pope and the Catholic Church could not be so accused. Darby grabbed hold of Ribera’s severance idea, connected his “Rapture” to the beginning of that final week, and changed that week from a 7-year period of covenantal confirmation to one of tribulation. (Notably, the Bible NEVER mentions a future 7-year period of tribulation.) Darby then introduced this now fully developed, pre-tribulation Rapture view (theory) in Europe and later in America. It was popularized in America by inclusion in the notes of the Scofield Reference Bible in 1917 and by elaborate End Time event charts published in Clarence Larkin’s Dispensational Truth in 1918. If you made it this far, Thumos is God's immediate judgement and Orge is the lake of fire.
Death is always imminent......the rapture is still some time away because Jesus said after the Tribulation of those days...then comes the wrath.The bible does not say there is 7 years of Tribulation.
Hello - The purpose of life on Earth (one of 24 Hell Planet Schools) is to evolve spiritually through many lifetimes we have all signed up for, or we would be in Heaven in the first place. Ascension can only be EARNED by reaching the fifth-dimensional frequency in body and soul, mastering life and the Mysteries as a bona fide Initiate Master and succeeding in the sixth initiation. This is valid for all religions. There will be no general Rapture. The Second Coming was on 5 June 1941 at Glastonbury. Books presented there by the Lord to the Initiates in their Sanctuary and by the Angelic Hierarchy of the Solar Planes under the Authorship of Archangel Michael at the behest of The Most High available from The Winds of Truth Trust website.

Lee, you should avoid Mr Didio, he preaches some pretty heretical stuff. The Wretched Watchman recently did a video critique on him and it's really eye-opening. Hope your team looks a bit closer at who you decide to do programs with in the future.
DO YOU BELIEVE GOD'S WORD? DO YOU BELIEVE IT BEFORE ALL THINGS? IS GOD'S WORD THE FINAL JUDGE AND AUTHORITY? JESUS TOLD US RIGHT HERE WHAT WILL HAPPEN: What did Jesus say? WHEN? 29Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: WHAT DO PEOPLE SEE? 30And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. WHAT DOES JESUS DO? 31And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, WHERE WILL THE ANGELS GATHER THE CHURCH FROM? and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds(THE EARTH)(the only rapture). AND WHERE ELSE? one end of heaven to the other(the only resurrection).
@charlessmith4242 Okay be silly. There has been one resurrection which is Jesus on the third day. There are two more in the future, the first of the two remaining are all the saints(souls) in heaven which will return with Jesus on the last day just before the rapture of those Christians who are alive and remain immediately after the Tribulation. The last resurrection is the resurrection of the lost sometime after the millennium.
@Joe-l5x * You're correct about the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. The next one occurs in 1Thes. 4:13--18 when the church of Christ is Raptured. Then there's the 2 witnesses at Rev. 11:11-12, followed by the apparent resurrection ( ? ) of the 144,000 of Rev. chapter 7 and Rev. 14:1--5. The last one is found in Rev. 20:4, , these are the martyred Tribulation Saints. There's no mention of a resurrection after the Millennium for saved people. The first resurrection comprises four or five NT resurrections, and only saved souls are included in these resurrections. The reason I say 4 or 5 resurrections is because I don't know if the 144,00 Jewish evangelists were killed and then resurrected, or were they just raptured alive to Heaven. The only resurrection that occurs after the Millennium is the second resurrection, and these souls will be judged at the Great White Throne, and sent into the Lake of Fire, see Rev. 20:11--15.
@charlessmith4242 You don't need complicate things trying prove the completely totally false doctrine called pretrib rapture. It's simply not going to happen. The only way to believe pretrib is to call the Lord Jesus Christ a liar and Paul speaking by the word of the Lord a liar. THERE IS ONE RESURRECTION OF THE SAINTS FROM HEAVEN AND THERE IS ONE RAPTURE OF THOSE WHO REMAIN. BOTH ARE ON THE LAST DAY WHEN JESUS RETURNS ON THE LAST DAY IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE TRIBULATION.
@@Joe-l5x * I just gave you some of the scripture verses so you could understand the principle of what constitutes all that make-up what is called the first resurrection, as well as the scripture verses that describes the second resurrection. These verses come straight from the NAS translation of the Holy Bible. If you can't understand these verses that's on you. They are very easy to read and understand. If you call what Paul has written in 1Thes. 4:13--18 and 1Cor. 25:50--53 concerning the catching up ( Harpazo or Rapture ) of the dead in Christ, followed by the living Church of Christ into the clouds where the Lord awaits them in order to then take them to Heaven, a lie, you'll have to take that up with God. It's plainly written so no one should not be able to misunderstand the meaning. There's a few of ways to look at Matt. 24:29--31 ( don't forget to include verses 21&22 ). All these views happen at the end of the Tribulation. Some people think this is a Rapture or resurrection of the elect up to Heaven. Others think it maybe the gathering of the elect that will inhabit the Millennial Kingdom after the Tribulation. Normally, when the Bible references the elect it's referring to the Jewish people. Gathering doesn't mean rapture or resurrection. After the Tribulation the Son of Man will have all the surviving people from all the nations ( this will include Jewish people ) gathered before Him in order in separate the sheep from the goats, read Matt. 25:31--46. The sheep will go alive into the Millennial Kingdom, Matt. 25:34, and the goats will be thrown alive into the eternal fire, Matt. 25:41. Since the people in Matt. 21--22, 29--31 appear to be living, are these the ones being judged in Matt. 25:31--46? Interesting question. One might also think that the gathering in Matt. 24:31 is God calling His elect together to come back to earth with Him, instead of gathering people that are still alive from the furthest reaches of this world. Remember, during Jesus Christ's earthly ministry, he ministered only to the Nation of Israel not to the gentiles, read Matt. 5:17, 9:35, 10:5--7. Ministering to gentiles didn't occur until God told Peter to go to the house of Cornelius in Acts chapter 10, etc. Salvation for the gentile didn't occur until 7 or more years after Pentecost. Paul's ministry didn't get started until 10--13 years after Pentecost. The point is that when Jesus was speaking to His disciples, in Matt. chapter 24, He was speaking to Jewish disciples about what will happen to the Nation of Israel during the end times. He was not addressing the future of any gentile. That was left for what came after the Crucifixion, His Resurrection, and the ministry of Paul to the gentiles. There is a resurrection of the martyred Tribulation Saints at the end of the Tribulation, see Rev. 20:4. The Bible calls it a resurrection not a rapture. If you take the characteristics of the Rapture and compare those characteristics with the characteristics of the second coming of Jesus Christ, you'll see they are two very different and separate events.
Despite all the financial struggles i and my family faced, everything is finally falling into place! $47,000 weekly profit and riches I'll always praise the Lord.
Brother Lee cannot produce ONE SINGLE VERSE that proves a pre-trib rapture. Rev 3:10 Says HOUR, NOT 7 years. Paul said we are not appointed to wrath. 1Thes 5:9. Paul DID NOT say we are not appointed to 7 YEARS of wrath. So, what TIME PERIOD of wrath was Paul talking about? Rm 2:5 THE DAY of wrath. I mean how hard is it for pre-tribers to STUDY Gods word instead of ADDING 7 years to every verse. As a matter of fact, there is NOT one verse that teaches a 7 year tribulation. PERIOD.
The Secret 🤫 Rapture The Enemy crept into the Church and planted his seed. The Doctrine began to take root in The Church of God about 200 years ago. This Fairy Tail made up by Cyrus Schofield and John Nelson Darby continues to grow primarily in America.

This that I am talking has more than one branch. Its main branch is the Pretribulation Rapture. The other 2 branches are 7 years of Tribulation that starts with a 3rd temple. This seed gets its roots from the belief that Daniel 9:27 will be placed out 2,000 years in the future with God decides to start his prophecy stopwatch again. Daniel Chapter 9 has played out like the Angel of God told Daniel that it would come to pass.

If you actually read the entire passages instead of cherry-picking verses, you'd see that there is no pre trib rapture. 7x a thief is mentioned 5 of them with a time stamp. All 5, post trib. He said I am not coming for you like a thief because you will know the signs. Then proceeds to list the events in order. This is Jesus talking btw. A large section of the church will fall away from God. The antichrist will commit the abomination of desolation in the temple. Btw, that's 3.5yrs into the last 7yrs. Then he will give the command to kill usbfir His name sake. So in the last 3.5yrs the antichrist is going to persecute the church. Then the judgements will begin. But we are go inside while indignation runs its course. Thats Isaiah. Then after the tribulation, He comes for His bride. The emd of rev in chap 20 it says this is the FIRST resurrection. Just read the Bible in its context and you'll see.
I can not wait to go Home to see Jesus Christ

@JesusChristKing My prayer is that you not take them out of the world, but that you protect them from the evil one. (John 17:15)
According to the scriptures, I believe the church will be present when the Antichrist Christ signs a peace treaty with Israel. Verses in Revelation have the Saints undergoing severe persecution and tribulation. When they witness the signing, they will understand that we are entering the last seven years of the age and the soon second appearance of Jesus Christ.
The Rapture theory originated in Europe and is only about two hundred years old, and it's mostly taught in the western world.
There is nothing for me in this wicked world. I am ready to go home!

I agree Lee, God Bless Bro…
Rev 3:10 is my favorite rapture verse.
Thanks, Lee. Yes, having an eternal perspective is our hope!
Amen. To propel any doctrine other than the Biblical Pre-Tribulation Rapture is to undermine the sacrificial blood atonement of Jesus on the cross for His believers. Believers will be kept from (out of) the Tribulation, but many will come to faith in Jesus during the Tribulation.
Jesus himself did not even teach it.

@@truther2010 Jesus did not say every Christian will be safe from the hour because of revelation 3:10. He also told other churches that they would be captive to Satan. So which is it? There is nothing in the text to imply. It is a category that God fits people into. These were legitimate churches on major routes during the time of and the book of revelation being revealed to him. It is a common miss teaching that these churches indicate the church today. You may find principles of this in churches today, however, those messages are clearly for those churches that existed during that time.
great answers.
may I add also: the reason for the rapture.
Or why is there a rapture in the first place?
Simple answer.
Often overlooked.
Judgement is coming.
And we're in the way.
And why should we be spared?
Our well deserved judgment was already put on Christ, on our behalf, at the cross.
To even imply that believers should go through the tribulation, whether partially or totally, is a direct insult in the perfect and finished work at the cross for our salvation
Amen🙏🙌❤️🇮🇱👑
Beautifully explained. God bless.
absolutely. we are saved form God's wrath (both when it is poured out in the tribluation, and also when its poured out in hell) so there is NO reason for the Christian to be here during that time. There WILL still be new believers coming to Christ during the trib, but they will have to die to enter heaven or for a verrrrry small fraction, survive until the coming of Christ. People can *make up* reasons why the church would be here, but the Bible doesn't leave room for another option so its irrelevant. If you CLEARLY wanna see the pretrib rapture, read KJV Revelation 1:6 and then look at Revelation 5:9-11. It's so apparent there its amazing. If you read it in other translations, the meaning seems to have seriously been tampered with.
@myname-ns1rp
Some say we are just looking to escape the wrath.
And I reply to that:
"You bet I am!"
@@ivangodin1850 lol yeah that's like why God came to save us. he didn't want us to suffer in hell forever. He wishes not any would perish (in the lake of fire) so yeah I want what God wants!

Amen, come King Yeshua.
Our blessed hope x
It's amazing to me how many otherwise intelligent people miss the verses Lee is talking about and who completely misinterpret and force their own interpretations onto Scripture. It is so clear! Thank you, Brother Lee.
Hallelujah!
YES GOOD BROTHER!!! 1. Jesus gives a promise of escape.
Luke 21:34-36 (NKJV) “But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day come on you unexpectedly. For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth. Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.”
We are to pray that we might escape? Some will escape? YES! The Church will escape the wrath of God upon the earth because Jesus Christ took that wrath upon Himself.
2. Jesus gives a promise of being kept from hour of trial.
Revelation 3:7-10 (NKJV) ““And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write, ‘These things says He who is holy, He who is true, “He who has the key of David, He who opens and no one shuts, and shuts and no one opens”: “I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name. Indeed I will make those of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews and are not, but lie-indeed I will make them come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you. Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.”
Jesus gave a glorious promise to the ‘church’ in Philadelphia that they would be kept from the hour of trial that will come upon the whole world.
3. We currently live biblically in a dispensation of grace.
2 Corinthians 5:19 (NKJV) “that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.”
We are living in a time period where God is not imputing men’s sins against him in Christ. If you sin right now, you have a Savior! If you confess, He forgives. But soon this time period will be replaced with a time of judgment.
Matthew 24:21 (NKJV) “For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.”
4. There are different “Tribulations” taught in the Bible.
First there are tribulations, little ‘t’. These are general tribulations and trials that Jesus promised would come to His Church while living on the earth.
John 16:33 (NKJV) “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.””
James 1:2-3 (NKJV) “My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.”
2 Timothy 3:12 (NKJV) “Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.”
Secondly, there is the Great Tribulation, capital “T”. This refers to a specific 7-year period of judgment described in detail through Revelation 6-19. This is also known as the time of Jacob’s Trouble (Jeremiah 30:7) and Daniel’s 70th Week (Daniel 9). The Great Tribulation will come upon the earth from heaven. The general tribulations will come from Satan, the world, and our flesh. The Great Tribulation is called the “Wrath of God”, the cup of His indignation (Revelation 14:10). The child of God, through their faith in Jesus Christ, is not appointed to this wrath.
Romans 5:9 (NKJV) “Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him.”
1 Thessalonians 5:9 (NKJV) “For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,”
5. During the Great Tribulation, the Church is singing a new song in heaven!
Revelation 5:8-10 (NKJV) “Now when He had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. And they sang a new song, saying: “You are worthy to take the scroll, And to open its seals; For You were slain, And have redeemed us to God by Your blood Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation, And have made us kings and priests to our God; And we shall reign on the earth.”
Who can sing this new song? Not the angels. Not the Old Testament saints. Only the church can sing this song, redeemed by the blood of the Lamb!
Yes we are saved form God's wrath (both when it is poured out in the tribluation, and also when its poured out in hell). People can make up why they think the church is suffering during tribuation, but they forget there will be new believers coming to Christ after the Body is gone. Those are the "saints" mentioned in Revelation 6 and onward. the Bible doesn't leave room for the church to be in Daniel's 70th week. Period. If you CLEARLY wanna see the pretrib rapture, read KJV Revelation 1:6 and then look at Revelation 5:1-11. It's so apparent there its amazing. If you read it in other translations, the meaning seems to have seriously been tampered with.
The New Testament was written during the "last days" of the Old Covenant world. Those "last days" were the 40-year transition period; 30-AD to 70 AD. This is why all the eschatological passages in the New Testament were addressed to their first century audience and imminent.

This that I am talking has more than one branch. Its main branch is the Pretribulation Rapture. The other 2 branches are 7 years of Tribulation that starts with a 3rd temple. This seed gets its roots from the belief that Daniel 9:27 will be placed out 2,000 years in the future with God decides to start his prophecy stopwatch again.
Daniel Chapter 9 has played out like the Angel of God told Daniel that it would come to pass. Once you take Daniel 9:27 out of their end times theology all 3 branches fall to the ground and what is left behind is a huge gaping hole in their prophecy chart that they have huge behind their pulpits.

An atheist had similar complaints against God and spent his life arguing with and challenging Christians with his objections, so Jesus called him to a face to face meeting and gave him a guided tour of hell then sent him back to earth to tell us about what he discovered.

Will this happen before the Peace Agreement, new temple, and or Sound of The Trump?
I'm trying to learn and understand the Biblical order .
* The Rapture comes first, then the peace agreement, and then the temple. IMO, the sound of the Trump of God, is the voice of God, heard at the time of the Rapture. Read Rev. 1:10--20, and chapter 4 of Rev. You will see that both God and Jesus Christ have a voice as loud as a sound from a trumpet blast. Don't confuse the voice of God with the instruments that the angels blow.
Travailing, Anxiously Awaiting the Sons of God
"The whole creation groans and suffers the pains of childbirth together until now."
(Rom. 8:22)
The Last Days (which ran from 30 A.D. to 70 A.D.) were a time of great upheavals, or "birth pangs," not only for the Church on Earth (Rev. 12:2), and not only for the wicked on Earth, (who were "giving birth" to "destruction" and "wind") (Isa. 26:17-18; Matt. 24:8; Mk. 13:8; I Thess. 5:3), but also for the dead.
Hades (Sheol) was under siege, (Matt. 16:18; Rev. 12:7) and the departed saints in Adam were anxiously longing for their impending redemption in Christ, (Lk. 18:7-8; I Peter 4:6; Rev. 6:9-11) and were eagerly expecting to be set free (resurrected) at the revelation of the New Jerusalem (the New Covenant Church). (II Cor. 3:17; Heb. 11:10; Gal. 4:22-31)
The eventual birth, or "rebirth," of the dead (Matt. 19:28; cf. Isa. 26:19 NASB, NIV) would not happen apart from the eschatological saints in Christ, who were enduring, suffering and dying with Christ on behalf of the dead. (Matt. 23:34-35; I Cor. 15:29-32; Rev. 6:9-11)
The Church, as "firstfruits," had first to be perfected through suffering with Christ before the dead would be "harvested," or gathered, in the end of the age.
It was only as the Last Days Church (the period b/t 30 A.D to 70 A.D.) endured to the end that the dead were preserved through the eschatological time of "childbirth" and finally set free (resurrected) in A.D. 70.
Paul reiterated this doctrine in I Tim. 2:15:
"And it was not Adam who was deceived, but the woman being quite deceived, fell into transgression. But she [Eve] shall be saved through the childbearing if they [the women of Paul's generation] continue in faith and love and sanctity with self-restraint." (I Tim. 2:14-15)
Though Paul was writing concerning women, (vs. 9ff) the doctrine he was teaching was not limited to women (Compare I Peter 3:6).
The righteous descendants of Adam and Eve were suffering the eschatological pains of "childbearing," and would be preserved through their throes only as the Body of Christ on Earth endured in the Faith and attained unto the Resurrection of the dead. (Phil. 3:11)

Do you have permission from Lee Brainard and others to reupload their work?
Nobody knows the day or the hour, but He gave us signs to look for to discern the times. Jesus said He is the resurrection, so without Him, there is no resurrection. As confirmed by Paul, we who are alive cannot be caught up until the dead rise first. The dead in Christ cannot be raised until the coming of our Lord. When Jesus returns, He is to destroy the antichrist and if anyone says that Jesus comes before the antichrist declares that there are two second comings which is not Biblical.
There are only 2 resurrections, one at His coming and the other is at the completion of His 1000 year reign, as it is written "blessed are those who partake in the first resurrection". So the question is, where in Revelation does it say that the dead are raised? Chapter 11 when the two witnesses are raised which so happens to be at the 7th trumpet. This is what Paul was saying to the Corinthians "in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye at the last trumpet, the dead will be raised". He also said to the Thessalonians "The Lord Himself will descend from Heaven with a shout and with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first".
Do you see it? there is no imminent return, that book is called "revelation" for a reason, it reveals the events that lead to the resurrection. Anyone who can't connect these dots are those who live in fear and anyone who lives in fear need to question their faith, as it is written "examine yourselves to see if you're in the faith". In Paul's 2nd letter to Timothy he says that some thought the resurrection had already taken place and because of this, they departed from the faith. My brothers and sisters, do not be that seed that receives the word with joy, then fall away because of trials, persecutions and tribulations.

The Bible says that the wicked will be removed, not the righteous. Proverbs 10:30, “The righteous will never be removed, But the wicked will not inhabit the earth.”
That isn’t speaking of just removal from the earth: removed from God’s grace and presence, removed from the hope of Christ, removed from the beauty of creation and God’s plan of redemption.
@annemurphy9339 Whether the earth or from God's grace, the righteous will never be removed. It is the wicked that are removed. And this is what Revelation shows us as well.
Tribulation separates the wheat 🌾 from the Tares. The elect are gathered last.
41The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather from his kingdom everything that causes sin as well as all lawbreakers. 42They will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father.

You don’t want to be the one that is taken. Read the parable of the Tares. Like I said the ones taken first are burned with fire 30Let both grow together until the harvest.

Brother, Rev. 3:10 is a promise to one church that had already "kept the word of his perseverance." Besides, God can protect his people in other says than removing them from the earth. At best it would be a pretrib rapture for only those who have already suffered much "for his name." Look also at Rev. 2:10. Will you claim that also for the whole church? Amen?
* What is written to one of the 7 churches was also sent to all of the 7 churches, read Rev. 1:11. Also, note that at the end of each message to each church it's written, " He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches." Churches is plural, meaning what was written to one church was to be heard by the other churches. The timeline of the message to the Church at Smyrna corresponds to the timeline that the church suffered during Roman persecution. The timeline for the Church at Ephesus corresponds to the first century AD. The timeline for the Church at Pergamum corresponds to the birth of the Roman Catholic Church. Thyatira is the dark ages. Sardis is a continuation of the darkness and includes the Reformation. Philadelphia is the revival that occurred at the Great Awakening. And, the Laodicean timeline corresponds to the churches of today. Here is an example of how a message from God can be applicable to those at the time it was written, but also down through history. Only by observing history, and then recognizing that what was written to the 7 churches 2,000 years ago has been played out over the course of the history of the Church Age leading up to the end of this Age.
God can do pretty much whatever He wants, but to protect all Christians believers from the destruction that will come upon the whole earth is not very profitable. God will prepare a place for the Nation of Israel, but even then only 1/3rd will remain alive to enjoy the promise of the Millennial Kingdom, Zech. 13:8--9. God will remove His bride ( as any good husband would do ) from the wrath that will come upon the whole earth. Israel must go through the Tribulation, and those Israelites that finally accept their Messiah, during the Tribulation, will be allowed to enter into their promised Kingdom. The rest will be lost.
Lee is awesome. Great temperament, great solid theology and a nice guy. No, his mom didn’t take over my account!!! Haha.
What I'm saying is that the new covenant atonement is eschatological, and falls into the closing period of the Jewish age.
The end in view when “all Israel” is saved is precisely the end addressed by Jesus in Matthew 24 - the destruction of Jerusalem and the temple on one hand, and on the other hand, the ushering in of Israel’s promised new covenant creation [Isaiah 65:17] wherein true righteousness dwells [2 Peter 1:3].
It is as wrong as wrong can be to step into the middle of that short eschatological period of time and break off the imminent future from the past and present action being recorded, and transfer it to some alleged end of the everlasting new covenant age.
Christ’s second appearing is connected to His atonement no less than is His death or His entering the Most Holy Place. If He has not yet appeared the second time, then the only logical conclusion is that the atonement is not yet completed, or worse, it was not accepted of God.
The problem is resolved when one takes into consideration the role of “atonement” in eschatology and the range of action involved.
Israel’s yearly “Day of atonement” typified the once-for-all atonement Christ made. But what did it involve? It consisted of three basic actions on the part of Israel’s high priest-slaying the sacrifice, entering the Holy of Holies with its blood to make atonement in the presence of God, and his returning and appearing to Israel at the door of the tent. His return was anxiously awaited by Israel for it signaled God’s acceptance of the atonement.
The atonement, therefore, was not completed when the sacrifice was slain, nor when the high priest entered the Most Holy Place, but when he returned the second and final time. (Bear in mind that the priest entered twice with the blood of the sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people, Hebrews 7:27. The latter was the main focus of his return and of a consummated atonement.)
In Hebrews 9 the same pattern of action is ascribed to Christ’s fulfillment of Israel’s atonement. And it is not accidental that what is said of His making atonement is prefaced with that is said in chapter 8 about the new covenant for taking away the sins of Israel and Judah.
Now read carefully the recording of Christ’s atoning action in 9:23-28: first, the offering of the sacrifice (Himself), second, Christ’s entering with His own blood into the true Most Holy Place to make atonement, and third, His returning or appearing “a second time, apart from sin, for salvation” to those eagerly waiting for Him [v.28].
- Fulfilled in the first century AD
Use caution with dogmatic speakers, for your own sake, and read the Bible, pray to the Holy Spirit for understanding in His timing you will receive, not your own.
Based on Paul’s teaching, the final AC has to be revealed before the gathering together with Christ in the clouds, it’s what the discussion was about. The snatching away of the Church is Seal 6, no doubt. Think about this also, the rapture will in no way be a secret event, as many think. Seal 6 shows us people will run out of any dwellings in fear, Believers will know and go out and look up, being snatched up. How can one ascend up like Elijah when you’re inside a structure?

The restrainer.
Beginning with Tiberius, the Jews were under intense imperial disfavor, which continued through the reigns of Caligula and Claudius.
As long as Claudius was at the head of Rome,
the Jews were prevented to openly persecute the church.
However, Claudius was taken out of the way when he was poisoned by his wife, Agrippina, Nero’s mother.
This brought Nero to the throne, opening the way for the Jews back into imperial favor; Nero’s wife, Poppaea, was a Jewish proselyte.
The antichristian movement (“mystery of iniquity”) that had thus been hidden and repressed under Claudius, was loosed and revealed under Nero.
History accords with the Preterist interpretation of end-time events:
The dragon, beast, and restraining angel of Revelation twenty are best understood in reference to Rome, the persecution under Nero, and the restraining power of Claudius Caesar, which restrained the persecuting power of the Jew and empire, as long as he continued on the throne.

Nope.
The "rapture" was the second coming and the resurrection and fulfilled at the end of the old covenant Aeon with Moses and the Law as mediator in the first century.
Have you heard the Word? It's a soul salvation. It is not an issue of our human tissue, but eternal salvation and righteousness of the redeemed soul.
It was NOT, is NOT, a physical removal of the Church from earth.
John 17:15, Ephesians 3:20-21
Galatians 5:5, 1 Peter 1:9
Rapture = John 3:3, 5, 16 = born again, that we experience today, but it was the transition and fulfillment of the Old Covenant, to the New Covenant, consummated in Christ to the Church at the Parousia. They were the "terminal" generation 20 centuries ago, not us in the 21st century. Hebrews 1:2, 1 Corinthains 10:11
The Chruch is the New Jerusalem.
The New Heavens and Earth wherein righteousness dwells = the promised New Covenant Aeon in Jesus, which we are blessed to live and proclaim to the world.
It has no such thing as "last days" or "end times".
The Church is God's masterpiece. It is NOT replacement, but the promised, eternal fulfillment in Christ as the Spirit. All can be made right with God through faith in Jesus.
This New Covenant has no end or last days. His priesthood has no such features.
Isaiah 9:6-7
They in the first century, were at ground zero during the 40-year transition from the Old to the New.
To teach that our salvation is not complete until a yet still "second coming' or that the church age has an end, is unnecessarily discouraging and biblically inexcusable.
What more easy to give examples of the rapture? Enoch, Elijah, Jesus, the 2 witnesses, the church etc ....

The Jewish Temple was still standing when the New Testament was written. Matthew 24 does not apply beyond 70 A.D.
The great tribulation Jesus mentioned in 24:21 of Matthew, is in our past, not our future.
All things which were written, as Jesus said it in Luke 21:20-(22), MUST have included Daniels' 70 weeks in Daniel 9:24, unless one believes that He lacked discernment or worse, He was fibbing.
Although I wish and hope the pretrib rapture is true, it does not appear scripture teaches this.
The church was not revealed in the Old Testament. That was part of the mystery Paul talks about. Nowhere in scripture does it teach the church will mot be here for the tribulation. Nowhere. The church is separate from Israel, however, we are not separated in their salvation. We will be here. Buckle up. It’s going to be a bumpy ride.

@charlessmith4242 Nonsense delusional misguided teaching
He doesn't understand "Wrath". Thumos or Orge? Which one since there are two types listed in the NT? Nor does he understand 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 . If you are going to look up the Greek, then you need to look up all of it in context. There is a lot of speculation that he is injecting here. This verse is talking about the return of Christ. Let me explain:
1 Thessalonians 4:16-18
16 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, (Ouranos -the visible sky) with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.
17 After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up (Harpazo - “Caught up” to seize on, claim for one's self eagerly ) together with them in the cloud (Nephos -a dense crowd, a multitude, great company.) to meet (apantésis - the act of meeting, to meet (a phrase seemingly almost technical for the reception of a newly arrived official).the Lord in the air. (aér - air, the lower air we breathe.) so we will be with the Lord forever.
Heaven (ouranos) is not the the same as Air (Aer) They are two different words with two different meanings and applications.
• The destination is not heaven (Ouranos) which is the word used in v.16. The destination is return entourage with Christ to earth to reign on the earth. The imagery is the royal return of a king to His city.
• The purpose of the catching away underlines this divine/human encounter, to meet the Lord in the air. To meet (eis apantēsin) was almost a technical term that described the custom of sending a delegation outside the city to receive a dignitary who was on the way to town.
• In Acts 28:15 Luke utilizes this word in his description of the way a delegation of Christians from Rome went out to receive Paul and his companions when he approached the imperial city, “The brothers there had heard that we were coming, and they traveled as far as the Forum of Appius and the Three Taverns to meet us” (eis apantēsin).
The customary procedure was for the delegation to return to the city with the visiting dignitaries (Acts 28:16; also Matt. 25:6).
• Josephus, for example, tells how the citizens of Rome went out to meet Vespasian as their new emperor (who, by the way, had just come from leading the Roman troops in the battles to quell the Jewish rebellion that began in A.D. 66)
It works this way:
You have a walled city with a watchman on the wall like in Psalm 24:7-10 7 "Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.
8 Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle."
The herald blows the trumpet, and shouts the king is returning. The watchman challenges, to which the herald responds back. Then the committee goes out to meet the king.
• This is an entrance liturgy. Paul is depicting the return of Christ like a king coming back to his city. Everybody who lived in a walled city knew what the protocol was. Once you knew it was the king, and you heard his herald blow the trumpet, you send out the greeting committee.
• They go out from the city, meet the king on the road, and where they go from there is NOT back down the road but into the city. Similarly, Christ is coming from heaven with his angelic and saints entourage, the people on the earth go forth to meet him in a “cloud of witnesses” and return to reign with him on the earth. This is a story about the return of the king and to welcome him back to earth to reign on the earth with those who are raised in Christ.
The return of Christ is a major event.
“Caught up into the air” does not mean into heaven. The Lord will descend to the earth (Job 19:25; Acts 1:11) where the judgment shall take place.
This is called The Parousia. Which is translated “the coming of the Lord”.
John 14:3
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.
Where is He? In God the Father's presence. This is why our bodies need to be changed.
Revelation 3:10
10 Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial (Peirasmos which means a temptation or test. NOT Thilipsis which means persecution.) that is going to come on the whole world... (oikoumené - the land that is being inhabited, the land in a state of habitation, the inhabited world, that is, the Roman world, for all outside it was regarded as of no account.) ...to test (peirazó - to attempt, test, tempt) ...the inhabitants of the earth. (gé - soil, land, region, country, inhabitants of a region.)
Matthew 24:30-31
29 “Immediately AFTER the tribulation (Thilipsis ; persecution) of those days “ ‘the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’
When? After.
The sun and moon
Scientifically, the earth is held in orbit by the sun. If the sun were to go dark, the earth would freeze in subzero temperatures within 24 hours. Any living being exposed will die within 72 hours. Within a week the earth would become an ice ball and the lack of sunlight and gravity would hurl the earth into space like a baseball being thrown into a field. The earth would be an inhospitable wasteland drifting aimlessly through space.
This is not a literal sun turning to darkness and the moon turning to blood being described in the bible.
The Sun and Moon - In Jewish thought; the sun represents the light of the messiah Psalm 89:36 - “His seed shall endure forever, And His throne as the sun before Me;”
The moon is a witness of the sun and represents the jewish people, according to rabbinic tradition. Sackcloth is worn in mourning. Joel 1:13 - “Gird yourselves and lament, you priests; Wail, you who minister before the altar; Come, lie all night in sackcloth, You who minister to my God; For the grain offering and the drink offering Are withheld from the house of your God.”
The parallel is in Matthew 24:10-13 “And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. 11 And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. 12 And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. 13 But the one who endures to the end will be saved.”
Isaiah 13:9,10 “Behold, the day of the LORD comes, Cruel, with both wrath and fierce anger, To lay the land desolate; And He will destroy its sinners from it. For the stars of heaven and their constellations will not give their light; The sun will be darkened in its going forth, And the moon will not cause its light to shine.” Because lawlessness will increase, the world will become morally dark and the light of the Messiah (The sun) will become like the sackcloth of mourning. They mourn at the judgment of the Lord.
The destruction of Jerusalem in 70 C.E. is an outstanding example of this. Foretelling that event almost 900 years in advance, the prophet Joel wrote (Joel 2: 30-31): “I will give portents in the heavens and on the earth, blood and fire and columns of smoke. The sun itself will be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and fear-inspiring day of YHWH.”
Matthew 24:30 & 31
30 “Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples of the earth will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory." Every one will see it. This is not a secret.
31 And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.
Philippians 3:20-21
20 But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, (We aren't awaiting from there, we are awaiting Him who is from there.
21 who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body.
History of the "rapture" doctrine
Raptus is the Latin for "seized", from rapture "to seize” or kidnap. In Roman law the term covered many crimes of property, and women were considered property. Think of when a jewelry thief breaks into a tore and starts to break the counter and pull all of the jewels into a bag he is holding. He is violently taking them to himself. This is the meaning of "Harpazo" in the Greek. (1 Thessalonians 4:16)
The idea of a rapture as it is currently defined is not found in historic Christianity, and is a relatively recent doctrine originating from the 1830s. The term is used frequently among fundamentalist theologians in the United States.
Most scholars agree that the secret Rapture theory was launched into prominence around 1830 by a group of people in Scotland who had become known as the Plymouth Brethren. Under the direction of John Nelson Darby (1800-1882) and others, they began to hold Prophetic Conferences.
Supposedly, during one of those conferences, or from a sick bed during those conferences, a charismatic utterance came forth as a prophetic message as though from the Lord through a young, fifteen-year-old Scottish girl named Margaret Macdonald.
While in a trance, she received a private vision and revelation that only a select group of believers would be removed from the earth before the days of the Antichrist. But she also saw other believers enduring the tribulation, something most rapturists nowadays do not teach.
Darby coupled this highly questionable vision of a secret, pre-tribulation Rapture with another idea originated by the Jesuit priest, Francisco Ribera.
Francisco Ribera
In 1585 A.D., Ribera invented the idea of interrupting Daniel’s 70-week, end-time prophecy and inserting a “gap” between the 69th and 70th weeks. This was done to deflect accusations from the Reformers who were fueling reformation fervor by claiming the Pope was the Antichrist and the Catholic Church the beast of Revelation. This is historically known as the counter reformation.
Ribera surmised that the first 69 weeks (483 years) concluded at the baptism of Jesus in 27 A.D., but God had extended the 70th week into the future. Therefore, the Pope and the Catholic Church could not be so accused.
Darby grabbed hold of Ribera’s severance idea, connected his “Rapture” to the beginning of that final week, and changed that week from a 7-year period of covenantal confirmation to one of tribulation. (Notably, the Bible NEVER mentions a future 7-year period of tribulation.)
Darby then introduced this now fully developed, pre-tribulation Rapture view (theory) in Europe and later in America.
It was popularized in America by inclusion in the notes of the Scofield Reference Bible in 1917 and by elaborate End Time event charts published in Clarence Larkin’s Dispensational Truth in 1918.
If you made it this far, Thumos is God's immediate judgement and Orge is the lake of fire.
* You seem to make an awful lot of assumptions in order to justify your position.
The great tribulation was fulfilled in the first century.
Death is always imminent......the rapture is still some time away because Jesus said after the Tribulation of those days...then comes the wrath.The bible does not say there is 7 years of Tribulation.
* No it doesn't, but it does divide the Tribulation into two 31/2 year periods.
Hello - The purpose of life on Earth (one of 24 Hell Planet Schools) is to evolve spiritually through many lifetimes we have all signed up for, or we would be in Heaven in the first place. Ascension can only be EARNED by reaching the fifth-dimensional frequency in body and soul, mastering life and the Mysteries as a bona fide Initiate Master and succeeding in the sixth initiation. This is valid for all religions. There will be no general Rapture. The Second Coming was on 5 June 1941 at Glastonbury.

Lee, you should avoid Mr Didio, he preaches some pretty heretical stuff. The Wretched Watchman recently did a video critique on him and it's really eye-opening. Hope your team looks a bit closer at who you decide to do programs with in the future.
DO YOU BELIEVE GOD'S WORD? DO YOU BELIEVE IT BEFORE ALL THINGS? IS GOD'S WORD THE FINAL JUDGE AND AUTHORITY?
JESUS TOLD US RIGHT HERE WHAT WILL HAPPEN:
What did Jesus say?
WHEN?
29Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
WHAT DO PEOPLE SEE?
30And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
WHAT DOES JESUS DO?
31And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet,
WHERE WILL THE ANGELS GATHER THE CHURCH FROM?
and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds(THE EARTH)(the only rapture).
AND WHERE ELSE?
one end of heaven to the other(the only resurrection).
* There's 4 resurrections found in the NT.
@charlessmith4242 Okay be silly. There has been one resurrection which is Jesus on the third day. There are two more in the future, the first of the two remaining are all the saints(souls) in heaven which will return with Jesus on the last day just before the rapture of those Christians who are alive and remain immediately after the Tribulation. The last resurrection is the resurrection of the lost sometime after the millennium.
@Joe-l5x * You're correct about the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. The next one occurs in 1Thes. 4:13--18 when the church of Christ is Raptured. Then there's the 2 witnesses at Rev. 11:11-12, followed by the apparent resurrection ( ? ) of the 144,000 of Rev. chapter 7 and Rev. 14:1--5. The last one is found in Rev. 20:4, , these are the martyred Tribulation Saints. There's no mention of a resurrection after the Millennium for saved people. The first resurrection comprises four or five NT resurrections, and only saved souls are included in these resurrections. The reason I say 4 or 5 resurrections is because I don't know if the 144,00 Jewish evangelists were killed and then resurrected, or were they just raptured alive to Heaven. The only resurrection that occurs after the Millennium is the second resurrection, and these souls will be judged at the Great White Throne, and sent into the Lake of Fire, see Rev. 20:11--15.
@charlessmith4242 You don't need complicate things trying prove the completely totally false doctrine called pretrib rapture. It's simply not going to happen. The only way to believe pretrib is to call the Lord Jesus Christ a liar and Paul speaking by the word of the Lord a liar.
THERE IS ONE RESURRECTION OF THE SAINTS FROM HEAVEN AND THERE IS ONE RAPTURE OF THOSE WHO REMAIN. BOTH ARE ON THE LAST DAY WHEN JESUS RETURNS ON THE LAST DAY IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE TRIBULATION.
@@Joe-l5x * I just gave you some of the scripture verses so you could understand the principle of what constitutes all that make-up what is called the first resurrection, as well as the scripture verses that describes the second resurrection. These verses come straight from the NAS translation of the Holy Bible. If you can't understand these verses that's on you. They are very easy to read and understand. If you call what Paul has written in 1Thes. 4:13--18 and 1Cor. 25:50--53 concerning the catching up ( Harpazo or Rapture ) of the dead in Christ, followed by the living Church of Christ into the clouds where the Lord awaits them in order to then take them to Heaven, a lie, you'll have to take that up with God. It's plainly written so no one should not be able to misunderstand the meaning.
There's a few of ways to look at Matt. 24:29--31 ( don't forget to include verses 21&22 ). All these views happen at the end of the Tribulation. Some people think this is a Rapture or resurrection of the elect up to Heaven. Others think it maybe the gathering of the elect that will inhabit the Millennial Kingdom after the Tribulation. Normally, when the Bible references the elect it's referring to the Jewish people. Gathering doesn't mean rapture or resurrection. After the Tribulation the Son of Man will have all the surviving people from all the nations ( this will include Jewish people ) gathered before Him in order in separate the sheep from the goats, read Matt. 25:31--46. The sheep will go alive into the Millennial Kingdom, Matt. 25:34, and the goats will be thrown alive into the eternal fire, Matt. 25:41. Since the people in Matt. 21--22, 29--31 appear to be living, are these the ones being judged in Matt. 25:31--46? Interesting question. One might also think that the gathering in Matt. 24:31 is God calling His elect together to come back to earth with Him, instead of gathering people that are still alive from the furthest reaches of this world. Remember, during Jesus Christ's earthly ministry, he ministered only to the Nation of Israel not to the gentiles, read Matt. 5:17, 9:35, 10:5--7. Ministering to gentiles didn't occur until God told Peter to go to the house of Cornelius in Acts chapter 10, etc. Salvation for the gentile didn't occur until 7 or more years after Pentecost. Paul's ministry didn't get started until 10--13 years after Pentecost. The point is that when Jesus was speaking to His disciples, in Matt. chapter 24, He was speaking to Jewish disciples about what will happen to the Nation of Israel during the end times. He was not addressing the future of any gentile. That was left for what came after the Crucifixion, His Resurrection, and the ministry of Paul to the gentiles.
There is a resurrection of the martyred Tribulation Saints at the end of the Tribulation, see Rev. 20:4. The Bible calls it a resurrection not a rapture.
If you take the characteristics of the Rapture and compare those characteristics with the characteristics of the second coming of Jesus Christ, you'll see they are two very different and separate events.

Brother Lee cannot produce ONE SINGLE VERSE that proves a pre-trib rapture. Rev 3:10 Says HOUR, NOT 7 years. Paul said we are not appointed to wrath. 1Thes 5:9. Paul DID NOT say we are not appointed to 7 YEARS of wrath. So, what TIME PERIOD of wrath was Paul talking about? Rm 2:5 THE DAY of wrath. I mean how hard is it for pre-tribers to STUDY Gods word instead of ADDING 7 years to every verse. As a matter of fact, there is NOT one verse that teaches a 7 year tribulation. PERIOD.
The Secret 🤫 Rapture
The Enemy crept into the Church and planted his seed. The Doctrine began to take root in The Church of God about 200 years ago. This Fairy Tail made up by Cyrus Schofield and John Nelson Darby continues to grow primarily in America. Christians today continue to water and prune this Unholy Seed as though it is The Holy Word of God.
The return of Yeshua is drawing near. I think it is time to be the Lords Firebrands. I don’t believe that we should be like everyone one else and continue to tickle their ears until they wake up and hope they can shake off their slumber and understand the deception that they have been told there whole life.
This that I am talking has more than one branch. Its main branch is the Pretribulation Rapture. The other 2 branches are 7 years of Tribulation that starts with a 3rd temple. This seed gets its roots from the belief that Daniel 9:27 will be placed out 2,000 years in the future with God decides to start his prophecy stopwatch again.
Daniel Chapter 9 has played out like the Angel of God told Daniel that it would come to pass. Once you take Daniel 9:27 out of their end times theology all 3 branches fall to the ground and what is left behind is a huge gaping hole in their prophecy chart that they have huge behind their pulpits.
Yea it shall come like a mighty wave and it shall cover the Earth, saith God. Yea I shall send a people yea as firebrands, yea to burn up hay, wood, and stubble saith God.
Yea I shall burn up that that the Devil has put upon my people.
Firebrand - Webster-1913
(1):
(n.) A piece of burning wood.
(2):
(n.) One who inflames factions, or causes contention and mischief; an incendiary.
Galatians 6:8
For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.
Luke 8:11 ESV
Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
Hosea 10:12 ESV
Sow for yourselves righteousness; reap steadfast love; break up your fallow ground, for it is the time to seek the Lord, that he may come and rain righteousness upon you.
Corinthians 9:10 ESV
He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed for sowing and increase the harvest of your righteousness.
Listen! Behold, a sower went out to sow.
Matthew 13:37
He answered, “The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man.
James 3:18 ESV
And a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.
* But there is scripture that describes two 31/2 year periods divided by the abomination of desolation at the mid point.
@@charlessmith4242 Did you not study the scriptures I gave? The time periods in Revelation are NOT to be taken literally. Rev12:6 And the WOMAN (Church) fled into the wilderness for 1260 DAYS. It's been 2000 years!!! We know this is the Church, because in Vs 5 Jesus ascended to the father. Act 1:9. This happened 2000 years ago. Study what JESUS taught. Mt 13:30/ Lu17:26-30/ Jn5:28-29. NO one left behind.
take the t off the word Planet .
Both first and second comings were fulfilled in the first century.
Second coming has yet to be fulfilled. I am on the fence as far as the rapture doctrine goes but no way Jesus second coming has been fulfilled.

If you actually read the entire passages instead of cherry-picking verses, you'd see that there is no pre trib rapture. 7x a thief is mentioned 5 of them with a time stamp. All 5, post trib. He said I am not coming for you like a thief because you will know the signs. Then proceeds to list the events in order. This is Jesus talking btw. A large section of the church will fall away from God. The antichrist will commit the abomination of desolation in the temple. Btw, that's 3.5yrs into the last 7yrs. Then he will give the command to kill usbfir His name sake. So in the last 3.5yrs the antichrist is going to persecute the church. Then the judgements will begin. But we are go inside while indignation runs its course. Thats Isaiah. Then after the tribulation, He comes for His bride. The emd of rev in chap 20 it says this is the FIRST resurrection. Just read the Bible in its context and you'll see.
Read 2 Timothy 2:15...
