But I tell you the BIBLE is a very SPIRITUAL BOOK written and directed on the inspiration of God

Because the people that came to enslave your ancestors told you so...

So it must be true...

This is my 4th time being to church this year. Not because of nothing, but because of my busy schedule. I've forgotten the last time I prayed sef.

The reason for the post was that, I've been having dreams about rapture since years back, but I just brush it off anytime I woke. The last one i had was like this. I saw myself in a big church, probably we were having a big crusade. Then suddenly one of the female ushers went missing. She was someone I knew. The husband was worried, we discovered she was the only missing. people started calling in and that's when we knew it was rapture. One person out of multiples was taken for rapture.

I woke up and as usual, I brush it off.
Getting to church today, I already missed the Sunday school. The bible passages that was read was Luke 27 which talked about how two people will be on a bed, one will be taken and the other will be left behind, two on the farm.
We all know the story.

So my question is, Are you prepared?

Go your own rapture and leave others to their own belief.

For me death doesn't signify the end of one's existence.. Hope you know African Spirituality believes in reincarnation.

So for every soul to transit, it goes back to its source and learns of it's past life's.

Let us make man in our image after our likeness....
...
,...
.....
And God formed man from the dust of the earth and breathed through his nose the breath of life and man became a living being.
Man is made up of dust of the earth and breath of God.
At death, God takes his breath and the body becomes lifeless, and we bury it after some ceremony for the body to return to dust.so everything returns to default settings...
"From dust you were made and to dust you shall return."

Just do good and be good. The only purpose of life s to enjoy it...

Every other thing to population control or social engineering..


So if you believe we come and we must return back to dust




Can we represent the breath as soul?

29 “Immediately after the distress of those days ‘the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky,
and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’
30 “Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples of the earth will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory.
31 And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17
[16]For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a loud cry of summons, with the shout of an archangel, and with the blast of the trumpet of God. And those who have departed this life in Christ will rise first.
[17]Then we, the living ones who remain [on the earth], shall simultaneously be caught up [/b]along with [the resurrected dead] in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air; and so always (through the eternity of the eternities) we shall be with the Lord!

The bolded is the rapture, harpazo in Greek and Raptura in Latin.

1 Corinthians 15:51-52
[51]Take notice! I tell you a mystery (a secret truth, an event decreed by the hidden purpose or counsel of God). [b]We shall not all fall asleep [in death], but we shall all be changed (transformed)


[52]In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the [sound of the] last trumpet call. For a trumpet will sound, and the dead [in Christ] will be raised imperishable (free and immune from decay), and we shall be changed (transformed).

2 Peter 3:3-10
[3]To begin with, you must know and understand this, that scoffers (mockers) will come in the last days with scoffing, [people who] walk after their own fleshly desires
[4]And say, Where is the promise of His coming? For since the forefathers fell asleep, all things have continued exactly as they did from the beginning of creation.
[5]For they willfully overlook and forget this [fact], that the heavens [came into] existence long ago by the word of God, and the earth also which was formed out of water and by means of water,
[6]Through which the world that then [existed] was deluged with water and perished. [Gen. 1:6-8; 7:11.]
[7]But by the same word the present heavens and earth have been stored up (reserved) for fire, being kept until the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly people.
[8]Nevertheless, do not let this one fact escape you, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years and a thousand years as one day. [Ps. 90:4.]
[9]The Lord does not delay and is not tardy or slow about what He promises, according to some people's conception of slowness, but He is long-suffering (extraordinarily patient) toward you, not desiring that any should perish, but that all should turn to repentance.
[10]But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will vanish (pass away) with a thunderous crash, and the [material] elements [of the universe] will be dissolved with fire, and the earth and the works that are upon it will be burned up.

The bolded verses are explicit enough for anyone to know the rapture is absolutely biblical. It's closer than ever now. Solution is simple. Accept, confess and believe The Lord Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour.

It contains details of what has happened, and what will happen. It was the book Angel Gabriel read from and told prophet Daniel what would happen after the reign of King Darius of the Persian Empire till the end of days.

The day of the Lord comes after the great tribulation.

The day of the Lord is when the sun turns dark like sackcloth and the moon turns into blood (Prophet Joel and Jesus mentioned this).

The day of the Lord is not a “secret affair” where some people will vanish. On the day of the Lord, all eyes shall see him.

And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.
7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.[i][/i]
8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
The church is the one preventing the full manifestation of THE MAN OF SIN who will bring the distress on the earth. Rapture is the TAKING AWAY of the only hindrance to this global chaos

Matthew 23 v 29-31 has no correlation to what we’re discussing. Rather you should be referring to Matthew 24 v 29-31. And this is so straightforward to understand.

Matthew 24 v 29-31;
29 “Immediately after the distress of those days ‘the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky,
and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’
