Enoch walked with God; then he was no more, because God took him away Genesis 5: 24
I believe
in The Rapture also known as The Taking Away. I have heard some people say
there is nothing like that in the Bible but we find The taking away happening in both the Old and New Testament. It happened to Enoch; It happened to Jesus Christ. This post is to share with you what
The Rapture is all about.
The dead in Christ shall rise first and we who are still alive will be caught up together with them to meet with Christ in the air.
For this we
say unto you by the Word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto
the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. 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:
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. 1
Thessalonians 4:16-17
The day and hour of The Rapture is unknown
Watch therefore,
for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh. Mathew 25:13
Not everyone will be taken. Some will be taken (Wise, Prepared with enough oil to receive the Messiah & Faithful sons and daughters of God) and some will be left behind {Foolish, Unprepared having little oil to receive the Messiah (Lukewarm) & Unfaithful to their Master}.
Then shall
two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two women
shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Watch
therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. Mathew 24:40-42
It shall happen very fast
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. 1
Corinthians 15:52
The Rapture shall happen and then the Great Tribulation shall begin
But your
dead will live; their bodies will rise. You who dwell in the dust, wake up and
shout for joy. Your dew is like the dew of the morning; the earth will give
birth to her dead. Go, my people, enter your rooms and shut the doors behind
you; hide yourselves for a little while until His wrath has passed by. See, the
Lord is coming out of His dwelling to punish the people of the earth for their
sins…Isaiah 26:19-21
The Rapture
should not be mistaken for the other coming of the Messiah in which He shall
come and every eye will see Him. This is another coming whereby He shall come
after the Great Tribulation. Those who had not prepared for The Rapture or
believed in it but would not have taken the mark of the beast and repented for
the forgiveness of sins; He shall save.
