WHEN IS THE RAPTURE?

WHEN IS THE RAPTURE?

 

Is it even important to know?

 

Yes! Christ rebuked the Pharisees for not knowing the sign of the times.

 

He said He’s coming for those WHO LOOK FOR HIM

 

Why has He provided tons of details & instructions as to what’s going to happen during the trib if you’re not going to be here.

 

He said “those that look for Him purify themselves with such thoughts” Are you purifying yourself?

 

Lastly, the bible says the day cannot come until the antichrist appear and MANY WILL FALL AWAY!

 

They will fall away because they are discouraged that the pre-trib rapture never happened & all hell is literally breaking loose Discouraged because they believed a lie & do not have endurance or faith for the tribulation 

 

SO ... CAN WE KNOW WHEN - YES!!!

 

The bible tells us in no less than 4 places that Christ’s return & Rapture will be at the sound of the LAST TRUMP. 

 

There is not one single verse stating a secret rapture return followed 7yrs later by a full return. Don’t be deceived by TV evangelists or people who don’t read what the bible ACTUALLY states.

 

SO, WHEN IS THE LAST TRUMP?

& HOW MANY TRUMPS ARE AFTER THE LAST TRUMP? 

 

ANS: NONE

 

Immediately 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: 30 And 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. 31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a TRUMPET, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. Matt 24:29-31

 

Compare

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: 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.  1 Thes 4:16,17

 

Compare

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. 

 

CONSIDER

The domain of earth returns to Christ at His return AFTER the 7th & LAST Trump has sounded 

 

And the seventh angel sounded; (his trump) and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world ARE BECOME the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever. -Revelation 11:15

 

SAME QUESTION 

How many trumps sound after the LAST trump? ANSWER - NONE

 

Anyone have a single verse to support a “Secret Rapture”

 

The usual mantra for pre-trib rapture is “The church is not mentioned after Rev 4”??

 

Father has several names for His adopted blood bought family 

 

Saints

Temple

Body

Family of God

Household of God

Tabernacle 

 

Several of which are mentioned throughout Revelation & Saints in almost every chapter. Don’t be side-tracked by distorted context. 

 

Don’t be tricked by a pre Trib cowards rapture. It’s an insult to past martyrs. 

Suffering separates from sin and divides wheat from chaff. God can deliver you from wrath just like He delivered Israel from 10 plagues upon Egypt.
