THE DEATH IN RAPTURE
...the famine of today is not for bread, but for truth... DO NOT leave our Father; who leads, guides and directs out of the equation of your every very thought.
NOTE: If the rapture theory is a true Biblical teaching, then why was it not well known and popularized until the early 20th century?
Let me get one thing out of the way first. The word "rapture" is not found anywhere in the Bible. So where do they get the word from? It was coined from the words "caught up" found in 1 Thessalonians 4:17.
Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
What I would like to do is drop a Biblical bomb straight away on the pre-tribulation rapture teaching and expose it's weakness. That Bible bomb is found in Matthew, chapter 13. In this chapter, Christ Jesus is telling a parable and teaching a lesson concerning the events of the last days and the second coming. Let's look at what He says:
Matthew 13:24-30
Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:
But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.
But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.
So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?
He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?
But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.
Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
Friends, the rapture teaching is a false one invented by Satan to cause God's people to be unprepared for the time of trouble ahead, that we WILL go through.
What Happens at the End of the World?
For Jesus to say "end of the world", there must be some destructive event to take place right? So what event is coming that would be an "end of the world" event? THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST JESUS! Take a look at the following Bible verses describing the second coming and you will see that THIS is the event that will "end this world" as we know it.
Revelation:1:7
Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
2 Peter:3:10
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
2 Thessalonians:1:7-8
And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,
In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
Psalm:50:3-4
Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour before him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about him.
He shall call to the heavens from above, and to the earth, that he may judge his people.
Isaiah:34:8-10
For it is the day of the LORD's vengeance, and the year of recompences for the controversy of Zion.
And the streams thereof shall be turned into pitch, and the dust thereof into brimstone, and the land thereof shall become burning pitch.
It shall not be quenched night nor day; the smoke thereof shall go up for ever: from generation to generation it shall lie waste; none shall pass through it for ever and ever.
Amen.
No where in our Fathers holy written word is there any scripture found supporting "the rapture." There are, however, plenty scriptures that prophesy that great day when our Lord Jesus Christ returns at the 7th trump; when we will ALL (every living person on earth) be transformed immediately into our spiritual bodies and bow before Him.
1 Corinthians 15:52
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
...Now lets go back a few verses and a few after to pick up a little more understanding...
1 Corinthians 15:33-54
33 Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.
34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.
35 But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?
36 Thou fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened, except it die:
37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain:
38 But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.
39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds.
40 There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.
41 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory.
42 So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.
46 Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.
47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven.
48 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
Amen.
Such beautiful scripture; and even better and even more knowledgeable if you back up and just read the whole chapter. The word of God is moving and powerful.
...Now lets read these 4 famous verses that lead a lot of those ignorant in Gods word down the wrong path (rapture theory) ESPECIALLY when it is being read and preached to you (by a preacher/teacher/minister...) and is taken out of the context that it is delivered. Be learned of his wisdom by reading the book its found in and don't rely on mans words to save your soul, but our Heavenly Fathers Holy living word.
1 Thessalonians 4:13 - 4:17
But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive [and] remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
Amen.
These last few verses are where a lot of the false teachings and misinterpretations and the twisting, of those ignorant in our fathers word, come from concerning this evil and soul destroying rapture doctrine.
...So lets take these scriptures back to the Greek, of which they were written, and of the time and place it was spoken... and lets investigate a little here...
Paul (the author) spoke colloquial Greek (street/slang sort of a way of talking) And our Strongs Concordance tells us that the word/expression "cloud" means a grouping of... And the word "air" means our spirit.
We return to our spirit bodies and instantly gain the blessed knowledge of our celestial selves and memories of old when our true Messiah returns, so... until this transformation of us from our flesh bodies into our spiritual bodies takes place on the great and mighty day our Lord King Christ Jesus returns, ...We will stick right here with our feet on the ground and our minds in the Lord.
...here's a little more reproofing...
Ezekiel:13:18-20
And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe to the women that sew pillows to all armholes, and make kerchiefs upon the head of every stature to hunt souls! Will ye hunt the souls of my people, and will ye save the souls alive that come unto you?
And will ye pollute me among my people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of bread, to slay the souls that should not die, and to save the souls alive that should not live, by your lying to my people that hear your lies?
Wherefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against your pillows, wherewith ye there hunt the souls to make them fly, and I will tear them from your arms, and will let the souls go, even the souls that ye hunt to make them fly.
AMEN.
Do not be fooled by Satan's coming as our Lord God to destroy the souls all those that haven't the guidance from the wisdom our written word teaches. Satan will try to fly you away and A LOT will jump right on board thinking that it's the true Messiah coming to rapture them away... Satan will deceive A LOT, do not be one that he decieves, but rather build your Christian armor, as we're instructed to, to rebuke him and stand, strongly rooted in our fathers word, against him until he is taken out of the way.
I hope this was as fun and enlightening to read as it was for me to bring it to you, but most importantly, study our fathers word. You don't have to be a scholar to understand it... Its a book... Start at the beginning, pray for guidance and understanding, and read until the end AMEN.
