| PentecostalTheology.com The resurrection/rapture is on the last day as Jesus clearly stated in scripture. And they are the same event.
As taught in this last age, (The pre-Mid-tribulation rapture) is False doctrine!!
Acts 2
42
And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.
-Only the truth, is of Christ, and no lie, can be of Him. –
Have you continued in the doctrines that the Lord passed on to the Apostles???
Satan has attacked the TRUTH from the very beginning.
John 8
44
Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Mark 7
8
For laying aside the commandment (Word)of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.
9
And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment (Word) of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.
-Doctrine matters Greatly!!!
How can you ABIDE in TRUTH if you have been TURNED OUT of The Way??-
Example—Revelation 2
15
So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate.
1 Timothy 4
Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
Are you following the vain teachings of Devils through MEN??
Matthew 22
29
Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.
Does your doctrinal teachings DEFY Christ Jesus or AGREE with His VERY WORDS???
One of the most popular teachings of this last age is, the teaching, that “The Church” is going to be (REMOVED by God) from this world—-Pre-Mid-Tribulation.
MANY STAND AGAINST God in this matter!!
Do you?? Will you be accounted AMONG THEM???
Jesus Christ said He did not will for the church to be taken out of the world by God.
Well let’s take a CLOSE EXAMINATION of the Word of God to SEE who STANDS with God and who STANDS with MAN through the doctrine of DEVILS???
Did God the Father or God the Son, EVER SAY SUCH a THING??? That the church would be taken to Heaven by God in any capacity?
The Apostles and Prophets, ONLY EVER, AGREED with and EXPOUNDED UPON the Words spoken by God.
Can you PROVE your BELIEF by the Words DIRECTLY SPOKEN by God Himself??
I will PROVE that God SPOKE DIRECTLY AGAINST the (CHURCH being REMOVED by HIM) in ANY CAPACITY!!
So what will YOUR EXCUSE BE after seeing and hearing this TRUTH???
God KNOWETH!!!
What did the Lord Jesus SAY concerning the CHURCH BEING TAKEN out of this world???
John 17
15
I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.
WHO is the Lord talking ABOUT???
John 17
6
I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word.
7
Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee.
8
For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.
9
I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.
10
And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.
11
And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are.
12
While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.
13
And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have my joy fulfilled in themselves.
14
I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
If you have been given ANY SPIRITUAL SIGHT you will KNOW and UNDERSTAND that He is speaking of His CHURCH!!
And not just the APOSTLES!!! But the WHOLE Church!!
John 17
20
Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;
21
That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
Are YOU COUNTED AMONG THEM??? The church???
Okay if you ARE INDEED COUNTED AMONG THEM; what DID JESUS CHRIST say CONCERNING His children/Church/Bride???
Luke 20
34
And Jesus answering said unto them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage:
35
But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:
36
Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.
The BODY of Christ, WILL BE; EVEN as CHRIST JESUS, HIMSELF was…RESURRECTED!!!
This FACT hurts the FEELINGS of MANY that have been RAISED UP, as I, ALSO was, on a DECEPTIVE LIE…a TWISTING of God’s ACTUAL WORD; into a (LIE)!!! Pre Tribulation-Mid-rapture
Genesis 3
4
And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
SAME LIE!!!
And IT STILL goes AGAINST God’s WORD!!!
Jesus Christ HAS SPOKEN!!!
We -The Church- Will DIE to BE WHERE HE IS!!!
And NO OTHER WAY!!!
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.
3
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
4
And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
5
Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?
6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
What place did the Lord go to PREPARE for His BRIDE???
And WHEN would He COME AGAIN to RECEIVE the BRIDE/Church to Himself???
Hebrews 11
8By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went. 9By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:
10For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.
2 Corinthians 5
For we know that if our earthly house, this tent, is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.
Revelation 3
10
Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
11
Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
12
Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.
13
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
(TEMPLE) of MY God!!!
and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem.
Revelation 21
1
And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
2
And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3
And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
4
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
5
And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.
(And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.)
(Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.)
THIS IS THE PLACE that the LORD JESUS WENT to PREPARE!!! The New Jerusalem!!
NOW WHEN do we RECEIVE our REWARDS???
Revelation 22
12
And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
13
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
14
Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
These things…AT THAT TIME; the APOSTLES DID NOT KNOW!!
But the NEED for DEATH was WHY…they COULD NOT, AT THAT TIME…FOLLOW HIM IN THE LITERAL SENSE!!!
John 13
36Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow me afterwards. 37Peter said unto him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy sake. 38Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake?
(but thou shalt follow me afterwards.)
Now LET US NOT FORGET!!!
(John 17)
15
I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.
So HOW were they going to FOLLOW HIM…LATER???
John 21
18Truly, truly, I say to you, when you were younger, you dressed yourself and walked where you desired; but when you shall be old, you will stretch forth your hands, and another will dress you and will bring you where you do not desire.” 19Now He said this signifying by what death he will glorify God.
(19Now He said this signifying by what death he will glorify God.)
GLORIFY GOD!!!!!
John 12
Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: BUT IF IT DIE, IT BRINGETH FORTH MUCH FRUIT. 25He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal. 26If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.
RIGHT AFTERWARDS Jesus Christ goes into WARNING THOSE that LOVE THEIR LIVES, WOULD NOT, BE WILLING TO FOLLOW HIM UNTO DEATH!!
WILL YOU BRING GLORY to GOD???
Luke 18
13Those on the rocky ground are the ones who receive the word with joy when they hear it, but they have no root. They believe for a while, but in the time of testing they fall away.
Luke 21
Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
It is through DEATH that we shall ESCAPE the REIGN of ANTICHRIST and his Mark.
Revelation 3
Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
What is the WORD OF the Lord Jesus’s PATIENCE that will KEEP THEM; NOT, FROM the APPEARANCE of the Antichrist; BUT FROM the REIGN of the FALSE Christ!!!
Revelation 14
12Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
13And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.
(Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth:)
DO YOU HAVE EARS to HEAR and EYES to SEE???
John 10
26But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. 27My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 28And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.
ARE YOU OF UNBELIEF????
ARE YOU OF HIS SHEEP???
Time will tell the tale!!!
Mark 4
For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath.
The Lord Jesus Christ WILL BRING HIS REWARD WITH Him WHEN HE Comes ON THE LAST DAY and NO SOONER!!!
John 6
Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.
ONLY IF YOU BELONG TO THE BODY of Christ WILL YOU BE RAISED UP TO LIFE, from your grave, on the LAST DAY!!!
DO YOU BELONG To Christ Jesus and HIS Church???
Colossians 1
18Christ is also the head of the church,
which is his body.
He is the beginning,
supreme over all who rise from the dead.
So he is first in everything.
1 Corinthians 15
20But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept. 21For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead. 22For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. 23But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming.
WHOLESALE REMOVAL of the BODY of Christ FROM the WORLD!!!
Revelation 13
7It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe, tongue, and nation.
GOD’s WILL is for His Bride/Church to OBEY the WORD of HIS PATIENCE and FOLLOW Christ Jesus HOME as HE-HIMSELF DEPARTED…BEING RAISED FROM DEATH!!!
John 12
Anyone who wants to serve me must follow me, because my servants must be where I am. And the Father will honor anyone who serves me.
That is HOW the SAINTS that RETURN WITH Jesus Christ, GET TO HEAVEN in the FIRST PLACE!!! DEATH!!
Those that HAVE ALREADY DEPARTED in DEATH from this world ARE WAITING for US!!!
The GROOM is WAITING for US!!!
John 17
Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world.
Revelation 6
10And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? 11And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
The Church/Bride BELONG to Jesus Christ and the SEED of Jacob…has ALWAYS BELONGED to GOD and the TIME of the Church is just about FINISHED and then GOD WILL TURN BACK TO the SEED of Jacob!!!
The time of Jacobs Trouble!!!
Jeremiah 30
7Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.
Romans 11
All Israel Shall Be Saved
25For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
26And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
27For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.
28As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers’ sakes. 29For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.
Did the Apostles go to where Jesus Christ DWELLS???
YES, just as He TOLD THEM (LATER THEY Would INDEED FOLLOW Him); and THEREBY, HE SPOKE TO US, the REST of the Body of Christ/Church!!!
But brother SO and SO or sister SO and SO SAYS???
I’m really NOT INTERESTED in what MAN has to SAY!!!
I listen to a few men of God and have learned MUCH from them and their teachings. But I can ONLY AGREE with them as far AS their DOCTRINE AGREES with the WORDS from God’s mouth, God the Father, God the Son and Holy Spirit, that spoke through the Prophets and the Apostles; in complete UNISON with EVERY WORD that PROCEEDED from the MOUTH of God!!!
Want to stay with with your False Doctrine of DEVILS??? Pre tribulation???
Daniel 12
Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.
Isaiah 57
The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart: and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come.
Put NO CONFIDENCE in MAN/FLESH!!!
But GOD ALONE!!!
Sometimes EVEN THE BEST of GOD’s FOLLOWERS can get it WRONG!!!
So FOLLOW HIM!!!!
Galatians 2
But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed.
Kay Crick
Last day of what?
Derrick Holt
How can this be true if Yashua thought the Mystery of the last Trumpet why then Would Paul call it a Mystery had it been told in scripture? To discern you should compare the Trumpets…. One sites a resurrection and translated believers (no angels mention) “caught up” the other sites a gathering from the four corners of the earth by angelic beings with no mention of resurrection
Stephen FY Teng
>>>The church of believers is the Body of Christ & is the Bride of Christ, period ! The church Bride is now awaiting any time soon for the Bridegroom Jesus to fetch us at the church rapture in the sky to heaven for the Marriage Supper of the Lamb for 7 yrs, ok ? After the church rapture, will begin the terrible 7-yr tribulation for the unbelieving Jews on this earth, period !
Has any earthly bride been allowed to go through a fiery trial just before the wedding ? So, why wld the powerful Jesus allow His church Bride to go through the coming terrible 7-yr tribulation with the antichrist in torment & torture & even to martyrdom & death ? Unless u are worshipping a very small, very weak & very useless man-made Jesus, right ? This is no brainer or rocket science, ok ? So, just use yr reasoning, logic & biblical facts, ok ?
Val Ewe
His Bride is going through torture and martyrdom all over the world already. He allows the fire to purify the church.
Kay Crick
People shouldn’t use John 17:15 to disprove the fetching of the Bride. All Messiah was saying was that He didn’t want the Father to take His followers out of this pagan world but that the Father keep us from being influenced by the evil in the world. We are in the world but not part of its pagan ways. Sadly, many Christians today are lovers of the world.
