In this thread, I will be asking questions that can help people draw out salient points that will increase their knowledge about RAPTURE and ultimately help them in their readiness.

How? People perish when they don't have knowledge

Hosea 4:6a KJV
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge:

As the questions come, I will post. It may not be daily.

What is the difference between rapture and the second coming of Jesus?

The word "RAPTURE" is never found in any version of the Bible because it's true meaning is unscriptural!

Rapture when used in farming means a farmer is reaping what he sow on his farmland but talking of living creatures the meaning is unscriptural because the living creatures should be aware of their movement since they know the destination they belong to. So the dictionary linked rapture to RAPE since the persons to be raptured are forcefully taken without their consent.

So that word is wrong because only born again Christians are to be taken along with Jesus and they already know they are going with Christ it's only the day they will be taken that it's revealed to them.

If you mean the taking up of God's sons of course the Born Again Christians will be taken away from this planet when the world is still going about with their merriments but note one thing:

It's the dead in Christ (dead and buried born again Christians) that will be taken at the sound of the trumpet not living ones {1Thessalonians 4:16} because each of them must complete their earthly mission by enduring all the pains Satan intends to inflict on them till their last breath {Revelations 12:11} as brothers of the Christ each of them must complete his test just as Jesus completed his own and said:

"It is finished" John 19:30

It's after enduring to the last of their breath that they can have the crown to rule with Christ Jesus in heaven! Matthew 20:22-23

So they aren't going the same time only the dead among born again Christians will be taken to heaven the same time!

What is the difference between rapture and the second coming of Jesus?

Second coming is clearly Judgment day.

But to discover the difference what is the idea behind rapture?

QUESTION OF THE DAY

What is the difference between rapture and the second coming of Jesus?

I will be providing answers to this, question. Kindly see below and edify yourself. 👇👇👇

1.
Rapture will happen first, before the second coming of Jesus Christ.

Second coming of Jesus will take place at about 7 years after rapture takes place.

2.

At rapture, the Lord Jesus will not come down to the earth. He will not step down on earth. He will only appear in the sky.

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 KJV
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

[17] Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

However,
At the second coming, he will come down on earth from heaven to the earth upon Mount olives

Zechariah 14:4 KJV
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.

3.

* At rapture, Jesus Christ, is coming for ONLY true Christians, those who have repented of their sins in Jesus Christ, and are living a holy life. He is not coming for Israelites. But if there is any Israelite that has given his/her life Jesus Christ. That Israelite has become a Christian. Jesus is coming for such Israelite; he is now a Christian above being Israelite.

However,
* At second coming, Jesus Christ is coming to fight for Israelites. He is not coming for the church or not for any Christian. Any Christian that is left behind at that time is on his own.

4.
* Signs are given to signal rapture. That is a big plus for us Christians and we should make use of the facts that signs are given to alert us that rapture is near to our advantage.

* Not much signs are given for second coming as are given for rapture.

The other differences will be given, God willing, tomorrow. Watch out.

When Rapture takes place, it officially marks the end of salvation by the blood of Jesus Christ for us gentiles. Once rapture takes place, no more salvation by the blood of Jesus Christ. Any Christian that wants to be saved must die a gruesome death by beheading in the hands of the antichrist.

It also marks the end of the church - no more salvation, no more church. All you have now, is this little time before rapture, and which is ticking away very fast; reason I can't keep quiet.

Revelation 20:4 KJV
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.


* Rapture marks the beginning of salvation by the blood of Jesus Christ for the Israelites, but not for Christians any more.

Zechariah 12:10 KJV
And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.

The options available for you after the rapture are not easy ones; either stay with Jesus or worship the antichrist.

The options available for you after, rapture are not easy!; follow Jesus or worship antichrist.

If you stay with Jesus, you will not be allowed to go to church, not allowed to pray, not allowed to have or read Bible, not allowed to preach, not allowed to buy, not allowed to sell, persecuted and beheaded.

If you worship, the antichrist, you go to hell, forever.

Accept Jesus today and escape for your soul. Don't know what to do? Ask me!

At rapture, holy Christians are taken away from the face of the earth to heaven.

Mark 13:26-27 KJV
[26] And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.

[27] And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, *from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven*.

* At second coming, the raptured holy Christians will follow the Lord, Jesus Christ, *from heaven back to the earth, as his army to come and fight for Israel*

Revelation 19:11-14 KJV
And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

[12] His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.

[13] And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.

[14] And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

Jude 1:14 KJV
And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,

BRO, THERE IS NOTHING LIKE RAPTURE IN THE BIBLE, IT'S A SCAM.

Check what you are reading again,
THE MORE YOU LOOK, THE LESS YOU SEE

You won try bible?

When will you give up?

The rapture is not in the future, the rapture happened when the great tribulation commenced when God sealed his people, and spiritually killed them to enable them sail through the great tribulation.

Israel and Judah, lineage and convert, were placed in a fugue state, this is the sealing and the rapture circa 70AD, until they are called back to life by the voice of the archangel.

it's not about me giving up, you people should humble yourselves, let go of doctrines that are not realistic and stand for the truth

The rapture is not in the future

But conventional doctrines in all churches told us a lie that rapture is in the future,until we become adult enough to read the bible and find out the truth for ourselves?

all these things you are saying do not add up!

What add up and sensible is what the bible has said :
1. That Adam and Eve sinned so they lost their eternal life
2. That Jesus Christ died, resurrected and restore the eternal life back to mankind.

I don't see anything rapture there!

How does rapture fit in?

All churches are teaching RAPTURE except Jehovah's Witnesses preaching an end to badness.
When will you put away prejudice and face the reality?
There is nothing called RAPTURE in the Bible and what the churches wrapped up as RAPTURE doesn't correlate with the inspired writings of the Bible.
Later you will say Jehovah's Witnesses are worse but how?
You can't explain!🤔

These things are not for you, you cannot understand them. The story Adam and Eve is a pictorial presentation of Leadership and followership in Israel; the corruption that began among the people and spreaded to the leadership, let your confusion grow!

Rapture happened when God sealed his people to enable them sail through the travail of the great tribulation, the couldn't have gone through it with clear eyes, that would be an unending calamity.

Now Christ is risen from the dead and become the first fruits of them that slept! Let your confusion grow!

Everyman in his own order, Christ the firstfruits from the dead!

What exactly is rapture in the bible, can you quote any scripture in support of it?

Second coming of Jesus will take place at about 7 years after rapture takes place.
