The Post-Tribulation Rapture | Lesson 167

[@pjm8433]

I love you Pastor James as your sister in Christ. You’ve taught me so much & for that I’m so grateful. Thank you.

[@robbie12359]

Great and encouraging study brother James. I'm glad the Lord led me to simply trust HIs word as it is written and not purpose to come up with my own private interpretation. This is the epitome of rightly dividing the word of truth (2 Tim 2:15). Lord bless you all my brethren and thank you to all those that work at Bible Baptist Church to support this man and the work to encourage us throughout the world. The Lord has a wonderful reward for you all in your faithfulness.

[@ToOpen6seven]

Your comment is excellent and my sentiments, exactly!! I simply trust the Lord and His Holy Word (KJV) and it matters not to me, as much, of when the rapture comes, vs being and staying ready to always serve the Lord and being willing to lay down my life, if needs be. Many people will die before the rapture and this is why we have to live day by day unto the Lord.

[@lonesomecricket7721]

I too have given this much thought and asked the LORD to lead me into all truth. And time and time again I am reminded that Abraham knew that it was far from the LORD to destroy the righteous with the wicked. I am Looking for my master (Christ Jesus)to return I am not looking for the Antichrist.

[@BornAgainInJesusChrist]

Best understanding of the rapture I've heard. Word of God does not bring confusion or doesn't contradict itself. This illustration of the rapture clears the waters of understanding & stops this fighting among the brethren over rapture debate.

[@leroijr407]

_OMG_ . *Brother James! I thought i was alone on this!! Wow. I have been a pretrib catching away for decades. But just this last year I finally started telling my wife they are both correct. My wife and I have just heard you teach exactly what I been speaking about to everyone ... I started telling people they see what they are living. If they need signs, then they will be as Israel.* You are the very FIRST person I *EVER MET* that holds my same belief! Wow! I am in my first of a 3 day fast and God just revealed to me my confirmation i have been asking! Praise God! 🙌 The people I reasoned with probably been thinking (and still do) that i am a looney toon.

Paul says, we all will be changed (in the First Resurrection Rev 20:4-6) in a moment, at the last trump (1.Cor 15:51+52). Because the resurrection of the NT Saints and the Rapture go together, there is only one Rapture at the 7th Trump (Rev 10:7+11:15-18), at the parousia, return, 2.coming (2.Thess 2:1; 1.Cor 15:23; Luke 17:29+30 at the same day; at the last day (Jn 6:39,40,44,54) of this age (the day of wrath Rev 6:17), the end of the GT (Dan 12:7), when all things are finished (Rev 16:17).

This is fascinating stuff, Pastor. But I can imagine that staunch pre tribbers and post tribbers will be on the attack for your heathenous, heretical head on a platter. Don’t you let them rattle you. You’ve mapped out a perfectly reasonable,understandable explanation of why the Church has never been on the same page regarding this issue. I’m a pre tribber who can’t ignore a scripture or two that points to post trib, but there aren’t enough strong arguments on the post trib side to sway me away from pre. So I’m going in the harvest, not the gleanings! See you in the air!

[@billrundell2097]

Post Trib. will not accept the Pre trip view. Pre Trib. will accept a raptured view of remnants of saints of Israel. Post Trip. believe the Church will go into the 7 year Great Tribulation, Post Trib. and Pre Trib. views are not compatible.

[@benny-yj7pq]

The harvest you find in the resurrections, not in the Rapture, there is only one in the NT, together with the resurrection of the NT Saints. Find out when that happens, you will know, when the Rapture is (1.Thess 4:16; 1. Cor 15:23+24; Rev 10:7+11:15-18; Rev 20:4-6; Job 14:12 + 19:25-27; Jn 6:6:39,40,44,54)

We have to make sure we are reading the word of God in context. Like Rev 7:9-14, read the entire chapter or at least from verse 9 until the end, which explains the context a little better. When we pick and choose scripture like this, we can piece together any doctrine. Now for the record, I love your ministry and listen (and have supported financially) your ministry. But all of us need to make sure we are doing proper exegesis and not eisegesis, where we are reading into scripture something it is not saying, but our own ideas.

There is a lot more Biblical support for a pre trib rapture. 👍

[@benny-yj7pq]

For instance in the footnote of the KJV of 1611 in Mat 24:31, where it says the Trump is identical with the one in 1.Thess 4:16 and 1.Cor 15:52. In general, the KJV us not the best translation for a Rapture view. 2.Thess 2:7 "taken out of the way" is misleading. The antecedent of the "he"is not the Holy Spirit, who is not mentioned at all, but the AC, who is now in the bottomess pit, and will come (genetai) out of the midst (earth) in his time.The AC hinders the coming of the Lord (2.Thess 2:1-3), the subject of 2.Thess 2 is what hinders the Lord's coming, not who hinders the coming of the AC.

[@AVKingJamesBible]

@@benny-yj7pq The KJV isn’t just the “best translation”, it is the pure and preserved Bible. Inerrant and authoritative. The other modern translation “bibles” are corrupt.

The comfort that Paul says is that we will see each other again. The heresy during Pauls time is that some do not believe there will be another resurrection but Paul states that the dead in Christ shall rise and that all of us who are alive during the coming of Christ will meet Him in the air. That is the comfort Paul is talking about. Why dont we use context rather than looking down on other Christians who believes a different timing of the rapture.

Thanks for sharing brother! I love you man! You are a blessing! Im praying for you and your family!! I am watching and expecting for the rapture/event to happen on Saturday, April 16th 2022 during Passover and the full pink moon. Right now Putin's heart is being hardened from all the hate from everyone on earth, he is like a modern day Pharaoh, this parallel's with the story of Passover where the Pharaoh's heart was hardened. I heard a few years ago that Russia will be the one to start global nuclear war. A few brothers and sisters have had dreams of Passover and rapture dreams with a pink moon. Sister Darla from "God's gifts" YT channel had a dream that "It was all over during Passover" and she said she had a dream where she woke up yelling "The 16th!!". I had a dream last year where I saw the date of the rapture engraved in a cement tombstone in Hebrew writing and all I could understand and remember was that the end date was the 16th of a month! And a brother from "The unleashing" YT channel had a dream that the rapture happened on a Saturday! I believe that 2022 (Up until May 14th 2022) is the year of the rapture because Israel is turning 74 years old on May 14th and the rapture must happen before then in order for the Fig Tree prophecy to be correct. And I believe God is waiting until the very last moment which is the last full moon before May 14th 2022. On my channel there WAS a video of a sister that had a very detailed vision of the rapture/event (KZbin deleted it), she says that the rapture/event will be a bright white light lasting a few minutes and we will be transformed into our heavenly glorified bodies and brought up to heaven. I give full glory to God/Jesus for this comment because I have been praying everyday for God/Jesus to reveal this information to me so that I can share it with everyone. "If God/Jesus is everything, then we must be inside God/Jesus, and God/Jesus must be inside us" We will not experience any pain during the rapture/event. See you in heaven! Pray and repent of your sins to God/Jesus, not to be saved, but to show respect to God/Jesus and strengthen your relationship. God/Jesus loves everyone of you like as if you were the only person in the entire universe! Share this message with your family and friends! God bless you and your family!
