Somebody is going to be left, Now what are you going to do, call your President, Congressman, Pastor your church when The Few have left & gone away

An important point to grasp is that the Bible never teaches us to put our hope in "going to heaven". Our hope should be in resurrection - our bodies renewed, living in a world that's released from the bondage of death and decay.

This is equally incorrect. The "Earth" won't be our primary residence. The New Jerusalem will be.

John 14:2; In My Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
John 14:3; And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.

Rev 3:12; He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall go out no more. I will write on him the name of My God and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God. And I will write on him My new name.

Rev 21:2; Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
Rev 21:3; And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, "Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God.

Rev 21:10; And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
Rev 21:27; But there shall by no means enter it anything that defiles, or causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb's Book of Life.

Rev 22:14; Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city.
Rev 22:15; But outside are dogs and sorcerers and sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and whoever loves and practices a lie.
 
And for You "Arm Chair Theologians", And "Homemade "Biblical Critical Scholars",
"JESUS " Said this, and It will sure Happen for It will come to pass. and Still, "Like A Thief in The Night"! And You Better be READY!

(Luke 17)ESV
" I tell you, in that night there will be two in one bed. One will be taken and the other left. There will be two women grinding together. One will be taken and the other left.”And they said to him, “Where, Lord?” He said to them, “Where the corpse is, there the vultures will gather.”:eyes:..............['SAY It LORD']

If a certain group of People do not "Believe" Do not Force or drag them Into your Believeth and Do not Let them Convince "You" into what they believe. But Stand Still and HOLD your GROUND, "Like A Tree, Planted by The Rivers of Waters" that cannot be Move!


(Matthew 24)NIV
“Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of the servants in his household to give them their food at the proper time? It will be good for that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns. Truly I tell you, he will put him in charge of all his possessions. But suppose that servant is wicked and says to himself, ‘My master is staying away a long time,’ and he then begins to beat his fellow servants and to eat and drink with drunkards.The master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he is not aware of. He will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth."

Are You willing to take that Risk:eyes:

My Mama, didn't raise no Fool.:eyes: "watch and live" like the "FLIGHT" is leaving tonight! And I am at the Airport and at the GATE! "The Boarding GATE":eyes:
 
Not catch up and throw back. Jesus returns like the leader of a victorious army, or as a bridegroom. We are caught up to greet him and to join the triumphant victory/wedding procession.

And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”

My friend I can see that you've got strong opinions on this so I'm not going to argue... I think the main point is that you are ready NOW....If you're wrong you have a delightful surprise in your near future....and if I'm wrong I'm disappointed...but as long as we're both ready.....
 
Those that are alive are resurrected? They would have to pass through death first
WHEN THAT "HORN" BLOW, And He Crack That SKY, Particulars ain't going to mean nothing! We are not going to be looking at details! Game over! for a while. Round 1 and 3 more to go. :pensive:
English Standard Version
Blessed and holy is the one who shares in the first resurrection! Over such the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and they will reign with him for a thousand years.

HALLELUJAH ! SHAKE SHAKE, HOW SWEET IT IS.:pensive: Oh, just wait, until they get look at us:pensive: "The Manifestation of The sons of GOD":pensive:

Hey, Admon Mikha'el, He is talking about "what i Call "Round 4" "FINAL JUDGEMENT" When GOD destroy's "Death" earth, stars, moon , the Sun, and HEAVEN and All "Created Things" and Makes "ALL THINGS BRAND NEW" GOD FINAL GIFT to HIS SON and HIS ADOPTED CHILDREN, "The Sons of THE LIVING GOD" HE is not going to repair or restore or use old materials. BUT HE will make SOMETHING "BRAND NEW"!

(1 Corinthians 2)
"RATHER, AS IT IS WRITTEN: “ NO EYE HAS SEEN, NO EAR HAS HEARD, NO HEART HAS IMAGINED, WHAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM.” ...BUT GOD HAS REVEALED IT TO US BY THE SPIRIT. THE SPIRIT SEARCHES ALL THINGS, EVEN THE DEEP THINGS OF GOD.


Some many christians, OT prophesy is so mix up, it is dangerous, Their "ESCHATOLOGY" is like a Box of "Wheat Chex" in The OT and Their NT "Revelation" is the Cousin who only look so close, but should be only labeled a Box of "Rice Chex" That has been poured in to the same Bowl.:eyes: And they Know, that they are "CONFUSED" But Still, They press on into uncertainty and try their best to drags others with them:pensive:

"Fearing GOD is the Beginning of Wisdom" The Wonderfulness of GOD will place "GODLY FEAR" into The Heart of a :pensive:man, You are over whelm and books like "what heaven is like" becomes trash, place upon your soul:pensive:

That's because most Christians use churchianity doctrine in place of the Holy Spirit as a source of teaching....You cannot learn the Word by use of intellect...It MUST be spirit discerned...Holy Spirit discerned
 
Those that are alive are resurrected? They would have to pass through death first
Paul addresses that question in 1 Corinthians 15 and in 1 Thessalonians 4. We will not all sleep, but in the twinkling of an eye we will be changed.

Bless you. No doubt we're both wrong about God's future plans in many respects.

I'm not arguing for the sake of winning a debate though. When I realised that our resurrection and the renewal of creation is the hope for the world (rather than a disembodied spiritual eternity in heaven) it completely transformed my outlook on the future. A far richer hope.
 
Even the rapture comes with "Ifs"

Hebrews 9:27-28
27 Just as human beings have to die once, but after this comes judgment, 28 so also the Messiah, having been offered once to bear the sins of many,[a] will appear a second time, not to deal with sin, but to deliver those who are eagerly waiting for him.


Hebrews 9:27-28

27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:

28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.


So the rapture will happen for those who are watching for Him

The last day or final day under the Sun (the end of time) will come like a thief in the night .

The man of sin the antichrist (another teaching authority) has been revealed. There were many antichrists' when Jesus was here just as today .

There are no signs as wonder that we must seek after .Jesus declared its a evil generation natural converted mankind that walks after the things seen the temporal.

Does not say what? That he will come on the last day like a thief in the night .Or that its a evil genraration that seeks after a sign to wonder after and no sign is given other than that of Jonas which was fulfilled at the cross.?

I would offer. No sign was given to wonder after or contemplate .The last sign as a wonder was fulfilled by the Son of Man, the sign of Jonah . Jesus said its a evil generation the generation of natural unconverted mankind that does seek after one and not seek after prophecy as it is written the one source of faith

The man of sin is the antichrist singular (spirit of lies also called the legion ) because he is a spirit he works in corrupted mankind called antichrists (plural ) Both singular to represent the spirt of lies and literal to represent the flesh working as one man of sin, or man as a sinner deceived by the god of this world . .


1 John 2:18 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there "many antichrists; " whereby we know that it is the last time.

Again I emphases singular (the spirit) and plural (the manissfitation in the flesh) antichrists' . Men fallen in false pride A great example is found in Mathew 16.

Right after Peter received the keys that the gates of hell could never prevail against .The power of the gospel

Peter still recovering form a law of the fathers (out of sight out of mind) glorying in the flesh he was seduced in false pride thinking he was the key. He rebuked the representation of the glory of God the Son of man as if Peter was the Lord.

The antichrist Satan deceived Peter and Peter rebuked the Son of man forbidding him from doing the will of the father that was working in the Son The father gave words to His prophet , Jesus . who said to Peter get behind me Satan the spirit of lies or in other words walk by faith and not after what the eyes see the temporal things of men . In that way the Lord rebuked Satan (the Son of man powerless)


Peter is used as one of the antichrists' (many) false teachers. Peter was forgiven of his blasphemy against the Son of man seen. Forgiveness against the father the Holy Ghost not seen is not possible . he is in the unseen high place called the Holy Place its a warning of the wiles of the devil

Note . . (the lord our unseen God )

Note . . .(the father of lies the spirit of the antichrist false teacher. )

Note . . .(Peter one of the many antichrists ) .

Note. . Jesu the Son of man the prophet who spoke the powerful words of the father.

He mistook Jesus as lord and lifted himself above the Son of man Jesus as the new Lord . Not walking by faith . . Blaspheming the Son of man

Mathew16:22 -23Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee. But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.
