When the Harpazo does Happen, those who are left here.. ARE GOING TO BE VERY happy that those who were taken, have GONE AWAY! NOW , we can get on with what we were called to do.. Build the kingdom of God on this earth, our Own Eden, without God returning From Heaven , as Foretold.. indeed... the 'weeds' when the Harpazo happens, are going to be one happy weedy bunch! that animosity is felt very STrongly Today.. One does not have to go very far to sense that.... and as we get closer to Daniels 70th week, that animosity will grow deeper and deeper as the apostates go their way and the True Seed shines forth as they are prepared for a an Awards Ceremony and Big Banquet. One of the Eternals Ways of Refining is to ALLOW the enemy to proceed or progress further and further, those who are Genuinely His, will not partake, will be separate from that. Shine forth in the middle of the darkness, as those falling away, will continue to Sacrifice Truth for love and unity.. 'we just all gotta love each other' even if the Truth isnt what its suppose to be..... that Subtle Hiss from the garden... indeed!
SIGNS OF THE TIMES:
2 Peter 3:3-4 (HCSB)
[SUP]3 [/SUP] First, be aware of this: Scoffers will come in the last days to scoff, living according to their own desires,
[SUP]4 [/SUP] saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? Ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they have been since the beginning of creation.”
2 Peter 3:3-4 (HCSB)

No I am not amazing. I just recognise that the Old Testament prophets had to prophesy in terms of the thinking of their own day otherwise they would not have been understood. LOL it is not my theory. IT IS THE TEACHING OF THE NEW TESTAMENT. When Jesus Christ comes God will call time on this world. Eternity in the NEW heavens and earth awaits. So after His second coming I will be with Him in the new earth and Zech 14 will be a thing of the past. Meanwhile you will be wondering how you could have been SOOOOOOOOOOO wrong.
But we will still welcome you there if you truly know Christ
But we will still welcome you there if you truly know Christ
AFTER He Calls Out of the Bride to go to the Wedding of the Lamb.
AFTER He allows Antichrist to reign for 7 years, the supposed Peace Covenant with ISRAEL.
AFTER His Second Coming, where HE destroys the World's Armies that gather to fight Him.
AFTER He sets foot on the Mount of Olives splitting it in two, creating a huge canyon.
AFTER He flattens the Central Mountain Range of ISRAEL into a huge plain.
AFTER He takes the Throne in Jerusalem, physically reigning for a 1000 years on David's Throne.
AFTER He looses Satan from the Pit and raises the dead unbelievers to face HIS Judgement.
AFTER He casts everyone who is not written into the book of life, into the Lake of Fire.
AFTER He Destroys the Old Earth and It's Atmosphere.
AFTER He Creates the New Heaven (Atmosphere) and New Earth.
No, We who part of the Bride of the of Christ get called to Heaven to our NEW DWELLING place He has built for us; NEXT, on the list of prophetic events that I mentioned. We come back with Him, seven years later, riding white horses behind HIM, and reign as Priests, teaching the Children of the 144,000 Jews who will be sealed in their mortal bodies to enter into the KINGDOM, to continue to possess the Land of ISRAEL. Their Covenant is an Everlasting Covenant, granting them inheritance of the Land of Israel forever. We will already be in our resurrected immortal bodies that have been glorified.
I believe what the Bible says, while you believe something else.
1 Chronicles 16:16-18 (NKJV)
[SUP]16 [/SUP] The covenant which He made with Abraham, And His oath to Isaac,
[SUP]17 [/SUP] And confirmed it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel for an everlasting covenant,
[SUP]18 [/SUP] Saying, "To you I will give the land of Canaan As the allotment of your inheritance,"
God keeps His Covenants.
2 Peter 3:3-4 (HCSB)
[SUP]3 [/SUP] First, be aware of this: Scoffers will come in the last days to scoff, living according to their own desires,
[SUP]4 [/SUP] saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? Ever since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they have been since the beginning of creation.”
And Christ is bringing His Kingdom Back with Him at His Glorious Return, to sit upon David's throne to reign 10000 years Literal.. this will be in stark contrast to the Harlot of Revelation 17, who TAUGHT MAN, he / she can create his/her own eden on this planet, their own kingdom of Heaven on this earth.. this will be the LIE propitiated at the Start of Daniels 70th week, when He that Lets is Gone.. indeed! conflict of kingdoms, the gentile whore presenting a laodicean image to the planet, kingdom now, we can do , a carnal kingdom backed up with false signs and wonders.. fueled by the dragon. satan, as he decieves mankind once again , into believing ye can become as gods knowing good and evil.. that big piece of fruit? comes from the wealth and health gospel.. tantilizing the flesh, nothing wrong with Wealth and good health.. but when you use that as benchmark. for an image.. it becomes Diabolical.. indeed! this carnal kingdom in contast to the 2 Witnesses Prophesy of the Return of the Kingdom from Heaven, literally.. and those sent to bring the Message of the Coming Kingdom to those Gentiles/Jews (flesh) that are CAUGHT in the Hour of Trial , to test or try those that are on the earth.. JESUS RECKONED that time , when that happens.. like the steel jaws of a Trap shutting down on its prey.. He said to be Watching.. are your lamps Full?
yes at Christ's coming, the general resurrection and final judgment
I wouldn't take riding lessons if I were you LOL you won't need them He comes back with His angels at His second coming, not seven years later.
we reign as priests NOW
we ARE the 144,000
Funny that God's promise to Abraham was a heavenly inheritance (Heb 11.10-16) which replaced the earthly one.
But the land of Israel is to be burned up and totally destroyed (2 Peter 3.10-13) except for those who murder the Greek
Yes at Christ's second coming.
LOL that's what we all say.
In a more wonderful way than Israel ever imagined. As He said to Abraham he would receive a HEAVENLY inheritance

And Enoch also, the Seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord Cometh with Ten Thousands of His Saints,

Purdy hard to be in 2 places at one time eh? on this earth at His Coming yet Returning with Him from Glory when He appears in the Sky at the end of Daniels 70th week.. mmmmmmm
lots of scoffers and people who want man to believe 'the kingdom of Heaven is here now'.. an earthly kingdom.. naw.. man will try to create it when the Restrainer is Removed.. but you either have the Kingdom of God inside you thru the Paraclete the Spirit of Truth, or you dont have Him at all... Jesus Is Returning with His Kingdom, to put down all rebellion and chaos. His elect Angels will be apart of that, and His Saints will be with Him.. indeed.... first to get into Heaven with Him, they have to be taken out... and He will do this.. that is the Promise of the Blessed Hope.. indeed

Why did the apostles and disciples and Jesus himself speak in this way looking forward to a second coming in plain view and not something secret? The wording in this verse clearly indicates they look for ONE second coming on display and not some secret departure.
[h=1]1 John 3:2King James Version (KJV)[/h]2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.

Here is ANOTHER OT prophecy , yet to be fullfilled--------------------------->
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.
And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee.
Zechariah 14:5------> this prophetic event has yet to take place, it is the Return of Christ in Glory as He steps down on the Mount of Olives, the same place He was betrayed in POWER, His Saints with Him, purdy hard to be on this planet yet come from Heaven with the LORD... mmm somebody's blinders are on. indeed.. He will come for His Own, and Receive them Unto Himself, His Own are Not Ordained to WRath but to Salvation, at this point its the Putting on of Immortaility from that which is Mortal, Putting on of in Corruption upon that which was sown in Corruption.. Harpazo, the reuniting of the justified spirit with the Resurrected Glorified body.. indeed!

As His Child, you were not ordained to Receive His Wrath.... Christ took that for you.. do you realize what Christ did for you at the bloody tree? what He endured for you? when you come to that understanding, then you will Realize He will NOT POUR OUT HIS WRATH a 2nd time Upon His own.. that is Double Jeopardy, doesnt work in the True Kingdom of Heaven, on TV yes. with Alex.. but not in the Kingdom of Heaven, Paul says we are not Ordained to Wrath but to Salvation.. if God pours Out His Wrath Upon His Own, then that makes God a liar and Paul a liar, which they are not.. sorry..

This is a first, so don't miss it: a heretofore unheralded rapture verse,
Luke 11:13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
Some psycho wife killer, who belongs on Dateline, will always have a great wedding. Now, this guy is sleezy, narcissitic, in a good mood, but, bottom line, a bomb waiting to go off. But he's prince charming to his bride. He, being very evil, knows how to treat his bride, how to do good things at this time.
So, post-tribbers, the God you portray just kills the bride up front? I like 'em headless? Doesn't know how to better treat his bride than psycho man, who, being very evil, at least knows what's right by the bride and all civilization?
I more see God being slandered, even if we discount all the verses explicit about who the wrath of God is intended for, and not intended for.

easy street? as in the easy Groovy, cool Jesus trip? no that is a lie.. if you think God would unleash His Wrath upon one of His lambs He saved.. then you have NO CLUE as to what Christ Crucified is all about.. you need to go sit at the Foot of the Cross, and understand what was DONE THERE FOR YOU.. not what you can do for God, what He has done for you.. and when that Happens, then it will be LIFE CHANGING FOR YOU. indeed it will..
Double Jeopardy in the Kingdom of Heaven? NO.. those who teach that are liars. indeed!
