You both are sincere, but are sincerely WRONG. The Appearing in the Clouds is a Separate prior incident, about 7 years Prior to the SECOND COMING, and I CAN PROVE IT; but I doubt if you will even READ IT. Your brainwashed thoughts, are NOT TRUTH.
THIS VERSE IS ABSOLUTE TRUTH:
Matthew 25:13 (NCV)
13
“So always be ready, because you don’t know the day or the hour the Son of Man will come.
Yeshua SAID it, and YOU DOUBT IT, simply becauce YOU were taught different. That is PLAIN ENGLISH, and YOU proceed to DOUBT IT.
How many will not KNOW the Day or the Hour ? ? ?
Can't you see the Day or Hour is Known by ever combatant on the Armageddan Battle Field ? ? ?
Revelation 19:19 (NKJV)
19 And I saw the beast, the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against Him who sat on the horse and against His army.
They are their to try to stop JESUS CHRIST from coming back.
DON'T YOU SEE, THE ONLY WAY THEY WILL NOT will not know the at Least the DAY, is if it was Pretribulation ? ? ?
It would take at least two months to gather the world's Armies in the Valley of Megiddo and Jerusalem, and TWO MONTHS is a LONG TIME. But HIS APPEARING, the one Known AS the RAPTURE will be gathered in a flash, as quick as a lightning flash.
Matthew 24:27 (NKJV)
27 For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
1 Corinthians 15:51-58 (KJV)
51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye,
at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
55 O death, where
is thy sting? O grave, where
is thy victory?
56 The sting of death
is sin; and the strength of sin
is the law.
57 But thanks
be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
1 Thessalonians 4:14-18 (HCSB)
14 Since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, in the same way God will bring with Him those who have fallen asleep through Jesus.
15 For we say this to you by a revelation from the Lord: We who are still alive at the Lord’s coming will certainly have no advantage over those who have fallen asleep.
16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the archangel’s voice, and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.
17 Then we who are still alive will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air and so we will always be with the Lord.
18 Therefore encourage one another with these words.
Here is the tradition Feasts of TRUMPETS, in a Massianic Christian Church
Leviticus 23:24 (NASB)
24 "Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, 'In the seventh month on the first of the month you shall have a rest, a reminder by blowing
of trumpets, a holy convocation.
The LAST TRUMP HAS NOTHING to do with the TRUMPET JUDGEMENTS. It is Part of the FEAST OF TRUMPETS, the very
LAST TRUMP, and is traditionally held extra long, and is Called in JUDAISM the
LAST TRUMP.
Here is what it SOUNDS LIKE:
