The WORLD NEEDS TO KNOW THE TRUE MEANING OF RAPTURE
Postlewait Kathleen
I think it be better if the Christians understand. So far there is much division on the matter.
John Destefano
Tell the world let’s hear it
Lorna Taitano
Rapture can not be before 7 year or 3 1/2 year trib. which ever you believe. Why? Because there are no ‘two’ Resurrections 7 years or 3 1/2 apart. Some teach that their will be some people saved during the trib, and some of those are beheaded. Well if they get killed, then they need to be brought back to life too, resurrected right? In order to enter the 1000 year Reign of Christ on earth. (The only other Resurrection is of the non-believers AFTER the thousand years.) So no two resurrections for dead in Christ and a separate one for tribulation saints. Not scriptural. Personally I think we are all part of those who can’t be numbered in Rev. 7. Why can’t they be numbered? Because they are all the Saints from Pentecost till now.
Jupiter Rueda de Leon
I’m a pre tribber and am grateful to be because if I wasnt then I would still be in the world blindly sinning. The fact that Christ could return at any moment made me realize that I wasnt living right. My opinion is my opinion, but there are many others who believe what I believe. Believing in the pre trib rapture made me a better person and I have no regrets. Coram deo as in the face of God. I shall continue to follow Jesus and implement his teachings no matter what. I refuse to be discouraged. The holy spirit comforts me daily and I know that I am finally on track and it feels great.
John Destefano
Just what I thought
Craig Colburn
The JESUITS are really trying to turn up the pressure to force this deception on people….
Pieter Wessels
This is the truth about the “rapture” :
The correct interpretation of being “caught up” is to be made Christlike.
It’s not about the flying up into the skies of people as modern misinterpretation and certain religious entities wants you to believe. It’s about transforming people from the sinful state back to holiness, or more easily understandable:
to be made Christlike.
These first symbolic 144000 sons of God of Romans 8:19 are those who will usher in the kingdom of heaven back into this earth realm, for the kingdom is not a political one, but in one (after one has been caught up).
Hope this helps to understand this very important concept a little better for the time is ripe.
Thomas Drake
Just repent and seek God.. Holy Spirit is your teacher so you have opportunity to seek God. Clean your heart and forgive other and be humble ASK HIM and learn to TRUST HIM…
John Prewett
BEAST will demand the beheading of all the saved
(who will not worship BEAST/image and will not take the “mark”)
Since the saved know that day of beheading = day go to heaven,
When the time comes, the saved will not flee nor fight nor fear.
The saved will cooperate with the beheading.
The real day of rapture will be when the blade falls and the saint is freed from the body and goes into full unity with Jesus and goes to the “sea of glass” in heaven as per Revelation 15
Jupiter Rueda de Leon
You can sense the hate and anger from those who oppose the pre tribbers lol…I love you Jesus Maranatha…See you other pre tribbers in the air…Whoooo hoooo…I refuse to let the devil steal my joy….
Johanna Deale
When you see someone dissapear and you are left behind then start running
Myra Vista
Rapture and born again in Spirit are 1
Alex Smith
Ok so we have to go through trial before we transfigure to Spirit !?
Jone Varea
A brain child of the Jesuits…. demonic!!!
Stephen Steve Ramdhani
It is the Resurrection of the Just, in which both the dead in Christ and the living saints will be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, and be caught up, to meet the Lord in the air, when He appears suddenly, as a thief, in the night, on the Day of the Lord. But it is not a secret event as many think, but a visible and glorious one.
Timothy Stamey
Many will say it means caught up sadly but not caught up was added to the king James just like rapture is added in the mouths of church leaders. People lack the wisdom to study to show they are approved as they cant differ from changed from flesh to spirit in a twinkling of an eye at the last the 7th trumpet as we will meet Jesus in the spirit and be with a giant cloud of witnesses. Most see the word clouds and let fairy tales set in their minds of flying away lol.
Nooroa Teina
What about the Scriptures about Noah and Lot they were taken out before judgement fell upon the ungodly
Jupiter Rueda de Leon
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. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 KJV
Jupiter Rueda de Leon
You have to understand with the advances in crispr technology that there are soulless vessels on the Earth right now and they want to deceive you because Satan and his Legion the Fallen Angels do not want you to make it to heaven if you are a pre-tribulation Rapture believer and you study Thessalonians then you know that Thessalonians is telling you what you need to do in order to make the rapture and if anybody tells you tonight study Thessalonians is because they don’t want you to live a holy life
Jupiter Rueda de Leon
Look all that one needs to do is live as the Lord has instructed us to live and if you read Paul’s letter to the Thessalonians he’s very clear and how we should live so just do that and you’re good
Jupiter Rueda de Leon
Dear heavenly father I come to you today you in the name of your son Jesus Christ and I ask you to expose all the darkness in this forum and to protect us from the evil one in whatever form he comes in Amen in Jesus name
Mike Brotherton
Romans 8:22-23 King James Version (KJV)
22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.
23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
Mike Brotherton
1 Corinthians 15:52 King James Version (KJV)
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.
Jupiter Rueda de Leon
But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 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. But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation. For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him. Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do. And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you; And to esteem them very highly in love for their work’s sake. And be at peace among yourselves. Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men. See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men. Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. Quench not the Spirit. Despise not prophesyings. Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. Abstain from all appearance of evil. And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it. Brethren, pray for us. Greet all the brethren with an holy kiss. I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

STUDY THESSALONIANS AND LIVE HOLY FOR THE LORD COMES AS A THIEF IN THE NIGHT
Steve Snyder
Rapture was a mystery until Paul revealed how Old Testament says resurrection happens on the last day, Paul clearly describes both happening the same time resurrection then rapture of the living remaining from something? Tribulations?
Joseph Roman
You won’t learn about the rapture from most churches as they are blinded themselves
John Prewett
preTrib is mostly built on a misunderstanding about Paul’s predictions.
Paul was predicting for his own generation. Not ours.
Same for Jesus in Matt 24.

And that true meaning is….????
Gamas Heet
And what will happen.
Edith Neumaier
Already 132 comments. Did you get the true meaning yet or did you engage mindless sharing of opinions. Did anybody quote the scripture which applies to rapture? Do you know the world does know quite a lot about the rapture from the scripture. But every time scripture is quoted the endless opinion debate continues. Postlewait Kathleen you are right. There is much division. Why, because people do not study the Bible and follow false teachers. I was indoctrinated by false teachers. I was given 85 % gospel and 15% false teaching. Learn the truth by reading the scripture. What does the Bible say? And let the Holy Spirit guide you and not some false teachers or baby Christians.
Paul Bortolazzo
“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” Revelation 2:29
Let me ask you some questions about the Second Coming.
What events will warn us His coming is near?
What event will initiate His coming?
What events will be fulfilled during His coming?
What event will complete His coming?
Do you know?
The fact is, the Holy Spirit is teaching these truths to any believer having an ear to hear.
Timothy Stamey
True meaning of rapture is to seize to kidnap to do harm to arrest to kill. It should be called raptor in which would more fitting to the evil that will come upon the first ones taken.
Earmel Lee Young-Hunt
The Latin Vulgate translates the Greek ἁρπαγησόμεθα as rapiemur meaning “we are caught up” or “we are taken away” from the Latin verb rapio meaning “to catch up” or “take away”.
Lori McCool
but the world will not understand the rapture until it has passed.
Lori McCool
the world needs to accept Jesus as their Savior.

Believe it or not the second coming of my LORD JESUS CHRIST shall be after the coming great tribulation. Matthew 24:21, Revelation 13:7
And according to the vision GOD revealed to Daniel and John, the antichrist which shall usher in the great tribulation shall rule only for 42months
Revelation 13:5
And CHRIST spoke in Matthew 24:29 and He made it clear that His return shall be immediately after the tribulation.

“4 I saw thrones, and they sat on them,
and the authority to judge was given to them. And
I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded
“I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded
“I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded
for their witness of Jesus and for the word of God.
They had not worshipped the beast or his image,
and had not received his mark on their foreheads or on their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
Rev 20:4
When preTribbers read “BEAST wage war on saints” they think like Peter thought when Jesus revealed He would be crucified.
“oh no Lord ….that just can’t be !!! ”
22 Then Peter took Him and began rebuking Him, saying, “Far be it from You, Lord! This shall not happen to You.”
And note Jesus reply:
23 But He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are an offense to Me, for you are not mindful of the things that are of God, but those that are of men.”
John Destefano
Does anyone know if physically seeing angels in end times is in the Bible I personally haven’t but it happened to someone in my church
Kat Young
There will be no rapture. It’s made up by Darby in the 1800s.
