This is scriptural and correct.
But when it is thought it means going to heaven, then, that is wrong.
You rapture believers just infer that.
1 Corinthians 15:50-56 is a passage about Eternity, after the Millennium, when God Himself will dwell on earth with mankind, in their new glorified state. Proof of this is that Death is no more then, Revelation 21:4
Having studied and written many articles on the subject of God's Day of wrath, I understand it quite well.
But I see you don't know about it so well, as you make the mistake of saying it will last for 7 years.
Yes, we Christians will be saved and protected on that terrible Day of fiery wrath. Not removed to heaven as you like to think.
LOL.........do you think that you are the only one to study and write articles on the day of God's wrath. Honestly now, do you really believe writing stuff that is false will make it become true????
It saddens me to see anyone be so wrong in their understanding because you really seem to be a sincere person.
I believe that we agree that I Corinthians 15:50........ “Flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God “ is about a resurrection but the rub is WHEN not IF. The Apostle Paul turns to the subject of transformation of the body not the soul. The body that we now possess is not suitable for the heavenly kingdom. It is corrupted, subject to disease, and decays. Only that which is pure, incorruptible and immortal can enter heaven, this is why there must be a change.
Heaven is where God lives and He is perfect so we therefore must be perfect to be where He is.
In verses 51-52, Paul then proceeds to tell us a mystery which involves the change that all believers will go through, The corruptible will put on incorruption, and mortality will become immortality. We need to have a complete change to make us suitable for our new environment. This implies a conversion of our same physical bodies to a body with heavenly qualities. Nature does not know extinction but transformation, as science says energy cannot be destroyed but transformed.
You are convinced that the event we are talking about IS NOT a Rapture before the Tribulation.
Correct?
There is no way that I or anyone else can change your thinking. It is obvious that you are entrenched in your belief. What I can do however is quote Bible verse that prove the premillennial Rapture to all the others reading our conversation.
Now before doing that I need to make it clear to everyone that
There isn't one verse in the entire Bible which indicates that the Church will go through the Tribulation period. If there is ...........
please post it for us to consider. You will not do that because there is NONE!!!!!!!!!!
Matthew 25:31,32 ...........
"
When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory. And before him shall be gathered all nations"
Carefully notice that Jesus is going to sit upon His throne in Jerusalem when He returns, and the nations of earth will be gathered before Him to be judged. How can this fact be reconciled with 1st Thessalonians 4:17, which states that the saints will be caught up together to meet with the Lord in the air?
Matthew 25:32 to 34 ........
"
And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats: And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world."
When the Lord returns to the earth at the
Second Coming WITH His own, He is going to gather the nations of the earth together—separating the sheep from the goats, the righteous from the unrighteous. The sheep (saved) will simply enter the Kingdom, and the goats (unbelievers) be cast into everlasting fire. The test in this judgment is the treatment accorded by the nations to those whom Christ here calls "my brethren." These brethren are the Jewish remnant, the 144,000 who will have preached the Gospel of the kingdom to all nations during the Tribulation.
Carefully notice, there is NO mention of a resurrection and the persons judged are the nations of the earth. In sharp contrast, according to 1st Corinthians 15:52 there WILL BE a resurrection at the time of the Rapture.
I encourage you to read this carefully so that you can recognize that when Jesus returns to set up His Kingdom there is
NO Rapture,
NO Resurrection. No one is caught up into the air to be with the Lord. People who become Christians during the Tribulation Period will enter with their earthly bodies into the Millennium. Proof of this is found in Isaiah 65:20-25, and in Zechariah 8:5 where children are mentioned playing during the Millennium. Those saved during the Tribulation will enter physically into the Millennial Kingdom. Where will these humans come from if the saints are ALL raptured and changed at the END of the Tribulation, which is a Postribulation Rapture that you are promoting? Obviously this cannot be. It is just not there my friend no matter how hard you work to prove your opinion, Biblically it is just not possible.
Jude 1:14 -.......
"
And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints."
Do YOU see it!!!!! Carefully notice that NO mention is made of a Rapture at this time. Quite the contrary, here the Lord Jesus is returning with TEN THOUSANDS of His saints to the earth. That is drastically different than having our bodies changed, in the twinkling of an eye, and being "caught up" into the clouds to meet with the Lord. It would make no sense to say that Jesus is going to Rapture the saints, while coming to set up His Kingdom at the same time. Proof that this is
not the case is the fact that Jesus will gather the nations and separate the sheep from the goats, the saved from the unsaved, at His Second Coming. Why would Jesus separate the saints TWICE? That is, why would Jesus Rapture the saints into the air, and then regather the SAME people a short time later when He arrived on the earth? Do you see the dilemma of the Postribulation heresy?
Revelation 19:11 to 14 .......
"
And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean."
Here we read about ARMIES from Heaven, riding upon white horses, following Christ into the Battle of Armageddon.
There is NO mention of a Rapture or a Resurrection!!!!!
There is NOTHING in 1st Corinthians 15:51-54 or 1st Thessalonians 4:13-18 about armies, or ten thousands of saints, coming to earth to war. The exact opposite is stated... we will be LEAVING this sin-cursed earth! Amen!
