Since you could not answer the questions I posed to you ABOUT the word “RAPTURE”... I will answer the questions.
WHAT does the word RAPTURE mean to you?
...Rapture is an English one word term that means TO:
QUICKLY BE “caught up”...and the for the being being “caught up, it is A blissful experience”.
WHAT does the word RAPTURE apply TO?
...The “CATCHING UP” (ie Rapture) Applies TO: the Rising UP (from the Earth to the clouds):
a PHYSICAL LIVING body, (crucified with Christ),
that body’s saved soul,
that body’s born again spirit
...The “CATCHING UP” (ie Rapture) ALSO Applies TO: the Rising UP (from the Earth to the clouds): a PHYSICALLY DEAD body, (crucified with Christ).
WHO does the word RAPTURE apply TO?
...EVERY individual WHO has Become Converted “IN” Christ.
(Also known As, members of Jesus’ Church.)
WHY does the word RAPTURE apply TO, the WHAT and the WHO?
...The WHAT application, IS the ACT of “catching up” off the Earth to the clouds.
...The WHY application to the WHAT, IS EXPRESSLY revealing A SAFE HARBOR PLACE, ie(CLOUDS), God Himself Established, EXPRESSLY FOR “individuals” “WITH” God, TO BE SAFELY PROTECTED “FROM WRATH” (ie ALL WRATH), that SHALL COME UPON THE EARTH.
...The WHO application, IS every individual (physically alive, physically dead), Crucified “WITH” Christ, whose soul IS Saved, whose spirit IS Born Again.
(Also known As, CONVERTED IN Christ), ARE the Express WHO, WHO shall be “caught up” From the Earth, to the Clouds, SAFE FROM HARM OF “WRATH”, which SHALL Occur, AFTER the “Catching up”.
...The WHY application to the WHO, IS Expressly, BECAUSE the WHO, ARE NOT APPOINTED to, Subject to WRATH.
EVERY PERSON “not caught up”, IS REMAINING ON EARTH, AND Shall suffer WRATH.
“IF” you study Scripture, You should Learn...
WHO IS caught up, WHEN and WHY.
WHO IS remaining ON Earth, and WHY.
WHO suffers Wrath and WHY.
That the WRATH “increases” in increments.
WHO STOPS suffering WRATH, WHEN and WHY.
WHO CONTINUES suffering WRATH, (as it increases), unto WHEN and WHY.
Ignoring the precise Order and Way, (Of WHO, WHAT, WHY) before jumping to a discussion ON Pre-mid-post Tribulation, is simply dodging the facts, to understand....Pre-mid-post Tribulation EACH has a precise application TO SPECIFIC people. IF you do not KNOW WHO those specific people are or WHY (pre-mid-post) applies to them .... your dodging the basics of who and why, simply makes your jumping into “pre-mid-trib” irrelevant.
IF you had NOT noticed...
The END of Days as we know them, MUST have an application to EVERY Person.
Every Person does not believe IN God.
Every Person does not believe IN Jesus.
Every Person does not believe IN Christ.
Every Person does not believe IN Jesus IS the Christ.
Some Persons not ONLY do not believe, BUT make it their mission to EXPRESSLY try to convince others to NOT Believe.
Some Persons who DO NOT believe, Make it their mission to Persecute those that DO believe.
Yes WRATH is APPOINTED to a WHOLE host of people, Wrath shall be greater
To some persons more so than others.
Before the Wrath begins UPON the Earth, The ONLY living persons NOT appointed to WRATH...ARE THE CONVERTED.
Every other Living person upon the Earth SHALL SUFFER some degree of Wrath.
Comparatively....(as Scripture does), The Last Tribulation is compared to the First Tribulation.
The First Tribulation, EVERYTHING that remained ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH, suffered WRATH.
The First Tribulation, EVERYTHING that was RISEN UP ABOVE THE FACE OF THE EARTH, TO THE CLOUDS, WAS SAVED and safe harbored OFF the Earth, KEPT from the Tribulation & Wrath ON the Earth.
The Last Tribulation, THE SAME shall occur. THE SAVED shall be RISEN UP ABOVE THE FACE OF THE EARTH, TO THE CLOUDS, safely harbored OFF the Earth, while Tribulation & Wrath IS ON the Earth.
You can READ the TRUTH in Scripture.
Believe it or NOT, your Freewill option.
However Teaching what is NOT the TRUTH, stands Against Gods Truth.
