with Christ a thousand years.

Regardless, Paul tells us in 2thess 1 that when he does come in vengeance, we shall all be glorified ON THAT DAY.
“WE” who?
2Thess 1
This is a plain indication of God’s righteous judgment so that you will be considered worthy of the kingdom of God, for which indeed you are suffering.
6 For after all it is only just for God to repay with affliction those who afflict you, 7 and to give relief to you who are afflicted and to us as well when the Lord Jesus will be revealed from heaven with His mighty angels in flaming fire, 8 dealing out retribution to those [/B]who do not know God and to those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.
9 These will pay the penalty of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power, 10 when He comes to be glorified in His saints on that day, and to be marveled at among all who have believed—for our testimony to you was believed.[/B]
You…considered, you relieved, those, you who have believed…
…
Does that apply to “you” NOT mentioned…?
The “you” who have already testified AND laid down their life for Him?
… uh no.
What? Not what the scripture implies.[/B]
Scripture is ALL True…Period
All Scriptures DO NOT ALL apply to all men.
If you happen to be dead, your soul is with him when comes.[/B]
Fact is…I already laid down my bodily Life unto Death…
and received Gods Gift of “soul” Salvation, via Christ…
and received Gods Gift of “spirit” Quickening,
via the Lamb…
and presently Live “IN” CHRIST the Lord Jesus’ “Risen Body”…
Until “the day”…
The Lord Descends
FROM the Heavens Above the Heavens…
TO
HIS Fathers Kingdom…/The Lower Heavens (clouds /Air)…
AND
CALLS me UP OFF the Earth…
IN
My own Glorfied, BODY…
TO
MEET HIM face to face (no vail)
AND
BE officially Adjoined
WITH HIM
BEFORE and with the Blessing
Of His Father (and mine)….God.
BECAUSE…”I prepared FOR THAT Day”
* My heartful testimony TO Him of my Belief was/ IS True…
* I already laid down my bodily LIFE unto Him
* AND thus ON the Day (per A Jewish Tradition of Pre and Post Wed-lock)…
* The Agreement is Made between the brides and grooms fathers.
* The Bride Prepares herself.
* The Groom prepares a home for His Bride.
* The Grooms servant Signals the Bride to Leave her fathers house, go to the Grooms Fathers house…prepared to WED her Groom IN the presence and Blessing of the Grooms Father.
* And THEN… GO with her Husband TO His House He has Prepared For Him and His Bride…
TO Be together Forever.
So Giving “ME” Scriptures, for … “THOSE” to consider, find relief, who believed without Commitment…
Has NO application or effect on me.
Then your body will be raised and glorified along with the living[/B]
My Raising is called the Rapture…
I am already Prepared… and simply Wait for my Groom. To Finish “His” Agreements, with ALL of His Brides in “THEIR own stages of Deciding and Preparations.”
13 Now we do not want you to be uninformed, believers, [/U][/B]
Not applicable TO ME, for that which “I” and “My Lord” has Already DONE.
about those who are asleep [in death], so that you will not grieve [for them] as the others do who have no hope [beyond this present life]. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again [as in fact He did], even so God will bring with Him those [believers] who have fallen asleep in Jesus. 15 For we say this to you by the Lord’s [own] word, that we who are still alive and remain until the coming of the Lord, will in no way precede [into His presence] those [believers] who have fallen asleep [in death].
16 For the Lord Himself will come down from heaven with a shout of command, with the voice of the archangel and with the [blast of the] trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.[/U][/B]
Not news.
Glory to God,
