I think believing in a quick escape hatch has been one reason this generation of believers have accepted and not fought against so many of the abominations we have now in our society. If we had believed we would have to be here to deal with the current lawlessness we might have raised our voice in protest and had been the salt needed to keep this nation from spoiling. This sermon was encouraging!

[@joshlucas4052]

e Marie ,Amen, great insight!

[@jennyyip4782]

That is so true.

[@gospelbeliever1033]

I’m not looking for a rapture, but I’m looking to walk with Jesus now why wait

[@Princessfaith14]

I am crying and asking God that he will let endure in this coming tribulations

[@TRUE-WORSHIPPER952]

Very excellent teaching, Pastor. This needs to be taught everywhere!

[@Joy-tb1cp]

Finally a pastor who preaches the truth! They’re out there but they are few. Pastor God has given me the same revelations on scriptures you quoted some years ago except I never heard any preacher preach them, including the one about the one will be taken and the one left. All but the one where some will be ordained to be martyred without any sin on their part I did not get revelation of yet. God bless you for preaching the truth without fear of the opposition you might get.

I am Armenian I do belong to Armenian Apostolic Church (it’s one of the branches of Orthodox Church ) I have been Christian since the birth This past decade I was a lukewarm Christian What a coincidence! Shekinah Church woke me up with the news , our God, Jesus Christ is coming . Wake up , look deep inside , pray , repent , fast at least two days , ask for knowledge, wisdom , strength to endure on these last days . Amen

[@vincentoyunge1211]

[@jzwillies08]

Wow I have listened to this and played it back several times God bless you Pastor Sweet this is deep and it takes the Spirit of God to comprehend and accept it since most people have a preconceived idea about rapture but this is the real truth. I’ve been telling my friends about this Pre-tribulations rapture thing.

[@PraisingAdonai]

Thank you for preaching the truth and telling it like it is. At this it is very important to prepare for what's coming. May the Lord bless you in your ministry.

Pastor Joe Sweet sermons are wonderful ! A true man of God! We need MORE PASTORS who speak the TRUTh like him! FYI :People in USA are waiting for pre tribulation rapture that will NOT happen! Most Christians will turn away from truth and some will make a mistake by taking the mark of the beast because they think rapture is not here yet.

[@darinm2166]

Americans want a pre trib bc it coincides with the American dream.. I can have it anyway I want.

[@jeffanyfigueroa3359]

Where I think people get confused is saying that wrath and great tribulation is the same. It's not. Wrath is what happens after we are caught up. Tribulation is what we all have to endure. God bless. Great sermon.

[@hart3254]

Excellent video and this needs to go viral because there are pastors on youtube preaching we will be raptured out of here any moment now, could be any day. And their followers believe this and are going crazy waiting to be raptured.

[@Philomina7]

What a blessing to study about the rapture.....God bless Pastor Joe Sweet...

[@KJKP]

I’ve been thinking all week that someone really has to make this video, and here it is. Praise God. Well done, brother. This is exactly what I wanted to do: go through all the verses used to justify a pre-trib belief, and then ask people to think about each one and ask, “Is this about being protected in Heaven, or being protected on earth?” And, “Does this absolutely mean people are taken up before the Tribulation (spoiler: there are no scriptures like that... only 1 or 2 that can be interpreted either way.) And also ask, “Is this scripture even about the rapture at all?” (When I did my own study, I was amazed to realize that about a third of the scriptures used to support pre-trib are not even about the rapture or the Tribulation at all.)

[@susangoins1221]

Personal study is always super cool!!!! Talking/listening to spirit of God giving confirmation/revelation.

[@tjrank1]

Most correct teaching about the rapture I've heard. I believe in Rev. 20:5 for 9 years now. It changed my perspective in church doctrine.

[@kieferhernandez8437]

1 Cor 15:52 Mentions that the resurrection will take place AT THE LAST TRUMPET. That already gives you an idea that the other trumpet judgements will take place first before the rapture.

[@susankahn3655]

Another great teaching.

[@Prayer6226]

Thank you Pastor! It's so good to hear the truth from a man of God! I would love to get together with you and have you preach in my church.

[@texican287]

Well, it is refreshing to hear some of the same teachings I grew up hearing back in the 1960's and 1970's when my dad taught it. It was not well recieved then though he could quote the scriptures and show them then.

[@susangoins1221]

1980’s for me hearing this message. So thankful to hear!

[@georgefeneysey619]

A number of weeks ago whilst in prayer, I saw in the Spirit, God raising up men mostly and women, who were being sent by the Holy Spirit with the Spirit and power of Elijah in such power and authority from the Lord Himself to proclaim THE FAITH and set forth the truth as the Lord Himself declares it.

[@The.Ace.Crew.4Jesus]

[@69inetails]

Excellent super Joe!! Thanks you sir

[@ronlewis8398]

Excellent teaching pastor Joe. Definitely one I plan to share. I use many of these verses as evidence when seeking to have a lengthy discussion about pre-trib vs. Post-trib, but if I want to address the matter quickly I use this logical argument. Only one of these two options can be true. If one is then a lie, which one if it is a lie, would be more damaging to the Church of God? You cannot make an argument that post-tribulation rapture being a lie would cause Christians to be more harmed than a pre-tribulation lie. Therefore, if Satan has propagated a false Doctrine, which one would be the doctrine more damaging to God's people that the father of Lies would use? If people falsely believed in a post-tribulation rapture it would only serve to make them stronger in their faith and more ready to bare the burden of tribulation.

[@darinm2166]

I like your logic of analysis

[@razzer49]

Jerry Emm 0 seconds ago THOSE WHO HAVE BELIEVED "THE MYTH" MAY BE THE ones who say--"where is the PROMISE of HIS COMING? AND PERHAPS FALL AWAY....IT is written that as we see "the DAY" approaching we must pray one for another "That our faith fail not." Let us pray...

[@traceylussier144]

Amen. Praise Jesus’ 🙏

[@greentree730]

Myself and my kids had many endtimes dreams. My son had a dream that it was the last days and there was these spiders. The spiders were as big as how many people they had eaten. The only people they could not touch was Christian Believers. We were like one big cell moving through the city, no more building....we were the building. People were giving their lives to Jesus and joining us, lots of people saved!! They saw we were safe, and gave their lives...to the Lord. Then Jesus came and took us all up together. So many dreams like this as my kids grew up.....

[@Joy-tb1cp]

Oh and when I asked the Lord when are you coming back to rapture the church? He answered me “Just before dawn!” Now I would have said midnight but He said Just before Dawn. That fits!

[@freeindeed5393]

It is so hard to find a church that still preaches the word of God. Such a false gospel being perpetrated! Lord Jesus, retire your church! Let a pure bride rise up from the corrupt system! I have served God for 25 years and am so discouraged with what is passing for Christianity. Jezebel is running most churches, in the pulpits and the pews. Something must happen to bring forth the spotless bride...

[@RaptureofSaints]

Please I beg you Joe do MORE Videos on this Topic especially on 2 Thessalonians 2 where Paul tells us what must happen before Jesus will Come and Gather us to Meet Him as there is way to much Deception this Year! Too many are believing someones letter and someones word and another spirit instead of Heeding Paul warning and Pauls wise words!

[@darlenesmith1605]

Thank you fir this teaching. I have been troubled by this doctrine and teaching for some time now, but had no one to shine a light on it so I could see for myself. Like so many in the body of Christ, I was also taught this wrong, and it never really sit well with me. They twist the scripture and like a puzzle piece that just don't fit well, would try and shove pieces in that just did not fit. Jesus said the gospel was so simple that even a child could understand it. Not the way they teach it! There's a whole poster board full of images and timeliness that made no sense. This fits well and makes sense. It's very plain, if we just read and look at things with an open mind, then Holy Spirit will illuminate it for you and all of a sudden, you can see it! God bless

You must not have listened to the entire message? Your statement was addressed in the message. Of course we are not appointed to wrath, but that doesn't mean we are taken off of the earth. "A thousand may fall at your side and ten thousand at your right, but near you it shall not come". God is well able to distinguish between those who serve Him and those who do not, just as He did when plagues were released on Egypt. The Jews were protected.

Selah 4 There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God, The holy place of the [c]tabernacle of the Most High. 5 God is in the midst of her, she shall not be [d]moved; God shall help her, just [e]at the break of dawn. 6 The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved; He uttered His voice, the earth melted. 7 The Lord of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah 8 Come, behold the works of the Lord, Who has made desolations in the earth. 9 He makes wars cease to the end of the earth; He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two; He burns the chariot in the fire. 10 Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! 11 The Lord of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge.

Just sharing Reproof DAYS of Noah - Mat 24:39 And knew not until the FLOOD came, and TOOK THEM ALL AWAY (SAME TIME); so shall also THE COMING of the Son of man BE. (Pre-trib.’s false interpretation of the days of Noah, as if nothing was going on, which is not true. The meaning is they did not believe and continued, as if it was not going to happen but what was going on? The end of the world at that time and not just, eating, drinking and marrying, as Pre-trib., would falsely lead you to believe.) Gen 6:5 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart WAS ONLY evil continually. Gen 6:12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was CORRUPT; for ALL FLESH had CORRUPTED his way upon the earth Gen 6:13 And God said unto Noah, The END OF ALL FLESH IS COME before me; for the earth is FILLED with VIOLENCE THROUGH THEM; and, behold, I will DESTROY THEM with the earth. (Falsely dividing days of Noah) Mat 24:37 But as THE DAYS of Noe were, so shall ALSO the COMING of the Son of man BE. Mat 24:39 And knew not until the FLOOD came, and took THEM ALL AWAY; so shall ALSO the coming of the Son of man BE. Gen 7:17 And THE FLOOD was FORTY DAYS upon the earth; AND the WATERS increased, AND BARE UP the ark, AND IT WAS LIFT UP above the earth. Gen 7:18 AND the waters PREVAILED, and were INCREASED greatly upon the earth; AND THE ark went UPON the face of THE WATERS. (In this parable the Lord Jesus likens His coming to DAYS of Noah and the flood took them all away. The righteous and the wicked at the same time and the Ark did not move for forty days. A whole lot of things and people, animals perished before the huge ark loaded with all the animals and Noah’s family was lifted up. In all the parables likened, to the coming of the Son of man. The righteous and wicked are punished or rewarded, at the same time. No other time in between. Lot’s wife perished after she left the city and It is on the same day, night, hour or flood and not years apart. Only nine verses before this the Lord Jesus tells, you, that His coming is after the tribulation.

[@christinecelestial5024]

What about second Ezra and barruch Tim foster says only 49 days

[@Sanctified57]

Pre tribulation rapture doctrine is less than 200 years old. John Nelson Darby (a cultist) from the Plymouth Brethren movement was the father of this erroneous Doctrine. Although there were isolated proponents of this view throughout history, Darby was the one who developed the pre trib theological framework after visiting a church in Scotland where a young lady called Margaret McDonald shared visions with her pastor (Edward Irving I believe) regarding a secret rapture. McDonald an infirm parishioner was also purported to be holding seances, which casts serious questions regarding the source of her visions. Most of modern day, current pre trib stuff springs from variants of Darby’s doctrine. So aside from clear scriptural support for a post tribulation rapture, practicality all The early church fathers clearly taught a post trib rapture. Iranneous, student of Polycarp, who was a student of the Apostle John, taught a post trib rapture. This is believed to be the oldest eschatological record outside of the Bible.

[@biblehistoryscience3530]

Sanctified57, it’s the Darby conspiracy theory that’s new because it was invented by a reporter named Dave MacPherson in the 1970s, but the rapture before the great tribulation is in the Bible and was taught since the early church. But this teaching was suppressed by the Roman church and did not resurface until after religious liberty flourished again. Also, the demon-possessed teenage who was supposedly Darby’s source for his pre-trib doctrine actually taught that the church goes thru the great tribulation
