Just wait the next time when that "THUNDER CRACK" that Sky. You are going to Jump, because it might "Tremble and shake your soul'

(Exodus 20)BSB
"When all the people witnessed the thunder and lightning, the sounding of the ram’s horn, and the mountain enveloped in smoke, they trembled and stood at a distance. .. “Speak to us your self and we will listen,” they said to Moses. BUT DO NOT LET GOD SPEAK TO US", or we will die.” .....“Do not be afraid,” Moses replied. “For God has come to test you, so that the fear of Him may be before you, to keep you from sinning.”…"

GOD IS "IMMUTABLE" :eyes:

(Hebrews 12)
"See to it that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For if the people did not escape when they refused Him who warned them on earth, how much less will we escape if we reject Him who warns us from heaven? At that time His voice shook the earth, but now He has promised, “Once more I will shake not only the earth, but heaven as well.” The words “Once more” signify the removal of what can be shaken—that is, created things—so that the unshakable may remain.…"

Sir...I do have cognitive problems and when you are ambiguous like this....its like you're just blowing bubbles.....What are you talking about?
 
The coming of God when HE makes His entrance, It will not be Beautiful, but it will be Terrifying and many don't know that.

The Rapture will also be Terrifying to many. To those who are left behind, The Restrainer will be removed.
 
Imagine seeing Jesus coming out of the SKY, for those left behind. :eyes: and you have no Biblical knowledge whats so ever. But Hollywood. and then he disappear. for 7 years. and it is wild as hell on earth.

Yeah The bible says it will be a terrifying thing to see Him coming for the unbelievers...For the believers though it will be a joyful event...both the second coming and the rapture

But when we see HIM, Our vision will be Different.

English Standard Version
"Beloved, we are God’s children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is."

Maybe: Eyes like Flames of Fire, Hair White as Wool, Feet like Polish Brass. We don't know.

But the Second Coming, There is a Rider, on a White Horse, and this is how John Describes Him:

The Rider on the White Horse
11Then I saw heaven standing open, and there before me was a white horse. And its rider is called Faithful and True. With righteousness He judges and wages war. 12 He has eyes like blazing fire, and many royal crowns on His head.He has a name written on Him that only He Himself knows. 13He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and His name is The Word of God.…" :pensive:

Wait to they get a look at HIM! Feet don't fail me now!

I am shaking already :eyes:

The rapture will happen so fast -- in the twinkling of an eye. No warning -- just the trump sounding and believers will be up and out of here.
 
There are those who believe that when the rapture Does take place, there will be a logical explanation for where the people went.

Presently there are those who are determined that we will populate the planet Mars. That those from this country will develop colonies up there.

Yes...I believe the great deception is a part of that....People will be told that aliens took those who are unworthy off the planet.....So that they can lead mankind into the next evolutioI of our history
And Mars is a place you do not want to go to...I'm hoping it will be cleansed along with the Earth at the time of the Great White Throne judgment.

The "twinkling of an eye" phrase comes from Paul's description of believers being given their resurrection bodies. 1 corinthians 15. It's not about the rapture.


I declare to you, brothers and sisters, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed— in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality. When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”

Very good my friend....At the rapture the dead are raised first and caught up, and they that are alive are caught up, You could say they pass through death because they lose this flesh body and are changed into their new bodies....At the rapture....The verses are not stand alone verses They go with 1 Thessalonians 4:17

That's resurrection, not rapture.
 
If we are talking about Matthew 24 here, that's Jesus prophecy of the sacking of Jerusalem. It was fulfilled in 70AD.

The invading army is described using the language and imagery of Noah's flood. One swept away, another left.

Not catch up and throw back. Jesus returns like the leader of a victorious army, or as a bridegroom. We are caught up to greet him and to join the triumphant victory/wedding procession.

And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”


An important point to grasp is that the Bible never teaches us to put our hope in "going to heaven". Our hope should be in resurrection - our bodies renewed, living in a world that's released from the bondage of death and decay.
