    Using the term "rapture" incorrectly

    The last trumpet shall be Jesus's voice as He circles the earth shouting "Come forth !!! Come up hither !!!" (see my illustration below). Before the great tribulation begins. In 1Thessalonians 4:16, Jesus's voice is described as that of the archangel, the highest messenger of God, and that...

    Using the term "rapture" incorrectly

    The resurrection/rapture event has not taken place yet. So the souls of the dead in Christ in heaven have not received their new body yet. When the time comes for the resurrection/rapture event, Jesus will bring the souls of the dead in Christ with Him from heaven.

    Using the term "rapture" incorrectly

    The resurrection/rapture event has not taken place yet. When it does, the ressurected/raptured saints will be taken to heaven with Jesus in their glorified everlasting eternal life bodies.

    Using the term "rapture" incorrectly

    It is the souls of the saved dead that are in heaven - not their bodies. There bodies are in graves on the Earth.

    Using the term "rapture" incorrectly

    The resurrection/rapture event will take place before God's wrath begins. 1Thessalonians5:9-11. 1 Thessalonians 5: 9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, 10 Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with...

    What ? You are saying that the resurrection happens in heaven ? Graves are here on earth, not in heaven.

    Using the term "rapture" incorrectly

    In Christ's returning event in Revelation 19 - Jesus brings the bride of Christ from heaven with Him in Revelation 19. The resurrection/rapture event is prior to that. The resurrection/raptured event saints will be the bride of Christ at His return in Revelation 19.

    Using the term "rapture" incorrectly

    No, the earth is circular. Jesus is not going to be above the United States at the same time He is above China, which is on the other side of the earth. Can't you understand that ? There will not be a global resurrection that is then followed by a global rapture. Not two events. The...

    Using the term "rapture" incorrectly

    No, the bible does not say it that way. In verse 14, God has Jesus bring the souls of departed Christians from heaven with Him. In verse 16, Jesus descends from heaven, bringing the departed souls with Him as Jesus resurrects their bodies. And their souls are reunited with their glorified...

    Using the term "rapture" incorrectly

    Who does the resurrecting and the rapturing ? Jesus, right ? Do you think that Jesus will be one one side of the globe and on the other side of the globe at the same time ? No. Jesus will circle the globe, resurrecting and rapturing as He goes. And the resurrected and raptured...

    Actually Jesus returns twice...

    It is best to refer to the 7 year period as the 70th week of Daniel 9, or 70th week for short. The beginning of the 7 year period will be the confirmation of the covenant with many. A general consensus, although wrong, is that the covenant will be some sort of peace treaty. The correct...

    Actually Jesus returns twice...

    The 7 seals were opened back when John was in heaven, to know what events were revealed when the seals were opened. The events themselves have not begun yet.

    Daniels (Little Horn) Paul's (Man Of Sin) John's (The Beast) A Future Living Human Man Who Will Be Destroyed By The Lord Jesus At His Second Coming

    Jay, at the bible hub site, all of the translations in English for Ezekiel 39:28 simply say "land". Except for one translation, the New Living Translation, that says "home". New Living Translation: Ezekiel 39:28Then my people will know that I am the LORD their God, because I sent them away...

    Using the term "rapture" incorrectly

    No, the two terms does not mean two events. The resurrection/rapture event will take place as Jesus circles the earth - resurrecting and rapturing as He circles.

    Using the term "rapture" incorrectly

    No, one event. The resurrected in Christ and the raptured in Christ - are caught up together in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air - verse 17. 1Thessalonians4: 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. 15 For this...

    So you cannot fit the 1290 days and 1335 involving the AoD being setup into your Amil 3.5 year view. The reason is that your view is wrong.

    Using the term "rapture" incorrectly

    The Jews were already in the Babylonian captivity at the time of Ezekiel. The Gog/Magog event is after Israel has come back from captivity - which that captivity took place in 70 ad and lasted until 1948. The Gog/Magog event will take place in the latter years, latter days which we are now...
