According to all the Pre-trib Rapture Theory churches, Lord Jesus has a big red nose, painted white lips, hair like Ronald McDonald, and a clown suit!

No, not really, but why not claim Lord Jesus looks like that, since the false Pre-trib Rapture School makes up scripture that does not exist in The written Word of God? There is NO pre-trib rapture idea written anywhere in God's Word, not in the manuscripts nor in English translations. So if they can make up FAKE scripture, then their view of what Lord Jesus must look like (i.e, like a clown), must be valid for them also.

Lord Jesus said in Matthew 24:29-31 and Mark 13:24-27 that His future coming to gather His saints will be AFTER... the tribulation. So if the Pre-trib Rapture School is going to LIE and deny what He said there, they may as well claim He looks like a clown too, since they obviously do not care if they mock Him!

Are you calling all of Joel 2:31-32 the 2nd coming of Christ?

Edit: Did you know that the OT prophets could not differentiate between the prophesied events, as to which of the three comings of Jesus the events would be fulfilled in?

1. In his mortal flesh.
2. In the Holy Spirit.
3. In His Immortality.

The biblical coming of the LORD is when the resurrection and rapture occurs.


For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. 1 Thessalonians 4:15

‘Yes we understand that the Coming of the LORD and the Day of the LORD is indeed a one time event, in which the resurrection and rapture and the destruction of the antichrist all take place on that Day.


For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. 1 Thessalonians 4:15


And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. 2 Thessalonians 2:8

The OP premise is Biblically accurate. The "day of the Lord" is Christ's 2nd and only other coming after the future "great tribulation".

Per Zechariah 9:9-10, there are only TWO comings of Messiah mentioned, not 3.

The reason many are confused about this matter is mainly because of man's preaching of a false pre-tribulation rapture theory which wrongly teaches that Christ comes to rapture the Church PRIOR to the "great tribulation" when that idea is nowhere written in The Bible.

The pre-trib rapture school has also been found guilty of trying to claim the "day of the Lord" happens with the "great tribulation" timing, and their reasoning on that should be easy to figure, because they wrongly move the time of Christ's coming to gather His Church back PRIOR to the tribulation.

And while the pre-trib rapture school will deny that most of Christ's Olivet discourse of Matthew 24 is for the Church, they use the ideas of Jesus gave in that Chapter about His coming, as also Apostle Paul's "as a thief in the night" for their teaching that Christ's coming is Imminent and can happen at any moment. It shows that the pre-trib rapture doctors are only slicing and dicing Bible Scripture and creating their own doctrines instead.

Let's take another at the day of the Lord threw Isaiah 13: 9 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it. 10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine. 11 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible. 12 I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir. 13 Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger. 14 And it shall be as the chased roe, and as a sheep that no man taketh up: they shall every man turn to his own people, and flee every one into his own land. 15 Every one that is found shall be thrust through; and every one that is joined unto them shall fall by the sword. 16 Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished.

17 Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which shall not regard silver; and as for gold, they shall not delight in it. 18 Their bows also shall dash the young men to pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eye shall not spare children. 19 And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees' excellency, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.

BUT DON'T STOP THERE...

Heb 12:25-29
25 See that ye refuse not Him That speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused Him That spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from Him That speaketh from heaven:

26
Whose voice then shook the earth: but now He hath promised, saying, "Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven."

27 And this word, 'Yet once more', signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.

28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:

29
For our God is a consuming fire.
KJV

It is OTHER Bible Scripture in OTHER Bible Books that often sheds light on previous Old Testament prophecy, like events to occur on the FUTURE "day of the Lord" that happens on the LAST DAY of this world.

2 Peter 3:10
10
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
KJV

Oh ok ok let's keep it moving in Zechariah 14: 1 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee. 2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city. 3Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle. 4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. 5 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee. 6 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the light shall not be clear, nor dark: 7 but it shall be one day which shall be known to the LORD, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light. 8 And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it be. 9 And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one.

Yep! And many Christian brethren are totally unfamiliar with that Zechariah 14 Chapter about Christ's future return.
