The RAPTURE and SECOND Coming

 1 Thessalonians 4:7

King James Version

7 For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, 

but unto holiness.

How much do you know about the Rapture?

What about the Second Coming of CHRIST?

How much do you know about both events?

Do you believe in those?

What are the timelines involved?

One of the clearest explanations can be found from the video above.

It merely supports the earlier Amir Tsarfati video the HOLY SPIRIT led me to on 14 March 2022.

This I learned:

"As born again, I finally know that Christ will have us meet Him up in the air for the Rapture.

After seven years, we will come down with Him on earth, where He will rule for a thousand years.

I was also thrilled by the fact that we will be behind Him -- on our white horses -- and face the armies of corrupted earth, and Christ will show His power, might, and glory, and vanquish the enemy.

And we, who are behind Him, will be clothed in fine linen."

-- "LAST days PROPHECY made CLEAR"

Tsarfati was consistent.

If during the Second Coming you're not behind CHRIST, then you missed the Rapture.

But those who made it to the Rapture will experience this, when JESUS returns a second time:

Revelation 19:14

King James Version

14 And the armies which were in heaven 

followed him upon white horses, 

clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

Mercifully, the LORD JESUS "alerted" me to the Rapture on 14 January 2020:

"The Most Intriguing Words of Jesus For Me"

From that, SPIRIT guided me to write TONS of articles:

"The RAPTURE"

The Rapture is the next event in GOD's timeline for His saints:

1 Thessalonians 4:16-18

King James Version

16 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:

17 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.

18 Wherefore comfort one another 

with these words.

Since then, this born again watchman/workman has been warning everyone to heed the LORD's commands -- to be born again, to repent, and to believe the gospel.

As JESUS warned:

Mark 1:15

King James Version

15 And saying, 

The time is fulfilled, and 

the kingdom of God is at hand: 

repent ye, 

and believe the gospel.

The path we need to take is through, and with JESUS.

He needs to be our ONE, MAIN focus:

John 14:6

King James Version

6 Jesus saith unto him, 

I am the way, the truth, and the life: 

no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

John 10:27-28

King James Version

27 My sheep hear my voice, 

and I know them, and they follow me:

28 And I give unto them eternal life; 

and they shall never perish, 

neither shall any man pluck them 

out of my hand.

Matthew 7:13-14

King James Version

13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: 

for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, 

that leadeth to destruction, 

and many there be which go in thereat:

14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, 

which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

Romans 10:11-13

King James Version

11 For the scripture saith, 

Whosoever believeth on him 

shall not be ashamed.

12 For there is no difference 

between the Jew and the Greek: 

for the same Lord over all 

is rich unto all that call upon him.

13 For whosoever shall call 

upon the name of the Lord 

shall be saved.

Colossians 3:1-2

King James Version

3 If ye then be risen with Christ, 

seek those things which are above, 

where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

2 Set your affection on things above, 

not on things on the earth.

Acts 3:19

King James Version

19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, 

that your sins may be blotted out, 

when the times of refreshing shall come 

from the presence of the Lord.

Matthew 5:48

King James Version

48 Be ye therefore perfect, 

even as your Father 

which is in heaven 

is perfect.

1 Peter 1:13-16

King James Version

13 Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, 

be sober, and hope to the end for the grace 

that is to be brought unto you 

at the revelation of Jesus Christ;

14 As obedient children, 

not fashioning yourselves according 

to the former lusts in your ignorance:

15 But as he which hath called you is holy, 

so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;

16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.

You will want to be part of the Rapture, for you will not want to experience the Tribulation.

When the church -- the saints of the LORD -- are Raptured, the seven years of deception by the antichrist will commence.

In the latter three-and-a-half of those seven years, the HOLY SPIRIT will be "taken out of the way",  and the son of perdition will be revealed.

Those latter years will be the most trying and diabolical.

2 Thessalonians 2:1-8

King James Version

2 Now we beseech you, brethren, 

by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, 

and by our gathering together unto him,

2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, 

or be troubled, 

neither by spirit, nor by word, 

nor by letter as from us, 

as that the day of Christ is at hand.

3 Let no man deceive you by any means: 

for that day shall not come, 

except there come a falling away first, 

and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself 

above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; 

so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, 

shewing himself that he is God.

5 Remember ye not, 

that, when I was yet with you, 

I told you these things?

6 And now ye know what withholdeth 

that he might be revealed in his time.

7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: 

only he who now letteth will let, 

until he be taken out of the way.

8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, 

whom the Lord shall consume

 with the spirit of his mouth, 

and shall destroy with the brightness 

of his coming:

There is nothing more important in this world today, than knowing CHRIST will have His faithful meet Him up in the clouds, on a day known only to GOD.

And that these very same people will return with JESUS, as part of His army.

You, and I, would want to be part of that army.

That's what the Rapture, and Second Coming are all about.

JESUS declared:

Luke 21:27-28

King James Version

27 And then shall they see the Son of man 

coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

28 And when these things begin to come to pass, 

then look up, and lift up your heads; 

for your redemption draweth nigh.

Surely, you've noticed how fleeting face, fame, friendships, and fortune are.

For the true believer, the world cannot offer any delight, for the born again has seen through all that illusion.

Satan keeps our souls focused on earth when we should really be worshiping the LORD of HEAVEN.

The enemy gives us all sorts of enticements and excitements, keeping our souls in sin.

Many churches have been corrupted.

They don't even talk about the end times.

It's all "self", and "prosperity", and a denial of truth.

We only need to look at how depraved the world is.

Do you really want to remain in such a world?

Isaiah 5:20

King James Version

20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; 

that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; 

that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

The born again looks to the promises of CHRIST:

John 14:2-4

King James Version

2 In my Father's house are many mansions: 

if it were not so, I would have told you. 

I go to prepare a place for you.

3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, 

I will come again, and receive you unto myself; 

that where I am, there ye may be also.

4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.

We eagerly await the imminence of the Rapture:

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17

King James Version

16 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:

17 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.

We look forward to the New Jerusalem:

Revelation 21:1-7

King James Version

21 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: 

for the first heaven and the first earth 

were passed away; and there was no more sea.

2 And I John saw the holy city, 

new Jerusalem, 

coming down from God out of heaven, 

prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, 

Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, 

and he will dwell with them, 

and they shall be his people, 

and God himself shall be with them, 

and be their God.

4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; 

and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, 

nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: 

for the former things are passed away.

5 And he that sat upon the throne said, 

Behold, I make all things new. 

And he said unto me, Write: 

for these words are true and faithful.

6 And he said unto me, It is done. 

I am Alpha and Omega, 

the beginning and the end. 

I will give unto him that is athirst 

of the fountain of the water of life freely.

7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; 

and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.

ETERNAL LIFE with JESUS is what we believers want.

Who are believers but those who believe JESUS, the SON of GOD, has come, and will come again.

Believers are tasked to share the gospel with you.

Which, in all its simplicity is explained by apostle Paul:

1 Corinthians 15:1-4

King James Version

15 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you 

the gospel which I preached unto you, 

which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;

2 By which also ye are saved, 

if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, 

unless ye have believed in vain.

3 For I delivered unto you first of all 

that which I also received, 

how that Christ died for our sins 

according to the scriptures;

4 And that he was buried, 

and that he rose again the third day 

according to the scriptures:

Things of the world have no appeal for us.

We have no ambition to make a mark in this world.

We have no desire to be loved, be popular, be liked, be adored.

We have no desire to accumulate titles, money, or possessions.

We only have a desire to be right with the LORD, and to sin no more.

GLORY belongs to GOD alone.

We must worship Him alone.

Everything JESUS taught us, we take to heart.

SPIRIT and Scripture help us remember all those teachings:

John 14:26 

King James Version

26 But the Comforter, 

which is the Holy Ghost, 

whom the Father will send in my name, 

he shall teach you all things, 

and bring all things to your remembrance, 

whatsoever I have said unto you.

We are like children, eagerly awaiting JESUS to take up His church, His body, of which we are.

Thus, our focus are on these:

John 3:5-7

King James Version

5 Jesus answered, 

Verily, verily, I say unto thee, 

Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, 

he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; 

and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, 

Ye must be born again.

Acts 3:19

King James Version

19 Repent ye therefore, 

and be converted, 

that your sins may be blotted out, 

when the times of refreshing shall come 

from the presence of the Lord.

Romans 8:22-23

King James Version

22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth 

and travaileth in pain together until now.

23 And not only they, but ourselves also, 

which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, 

even we ourselves groan within ourselves, 

waiting for the adoption, to wit, 

the redemption of our body.

Philippians 3:9-12

King James Version

9 And be found in him, 

not having mine own righteousness, 

which is of the law, but that which is 

through the faith of Christ, 

the righteousness which is of God by faith:

10 That I may know him, 

and the power of his resurrection, 

and the fellowship of his sufferings, 

being made conformable unto his death;

11 If by any means I might attain 

unto the resurrection of the dead.

12 Not as though I had already attained, 

either were already perfect: 

but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that 

for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.

Colossians 3:1-6

King James Version

3 If ye then be risen with Christ, 

seek those things which are above, 

where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

2 Set your affection on things above, 

not on things on the earth.

3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid 

with Christ in God.

4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, 

then shall ye also appear with him in glory.

5 Mortify therefore your members 

which are upon the earth; 

fornication, uncleanness, 

inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, 

and covetousness, which is idolatry:

6 For which things' sake the wrath of God 

cometh on the children of disobedience:

Lastly, know the world for what it is:

1 John 2:15-17

King James Version

15 Love not the world, 

neither the things that are in the world. 

If any man love the world, 

the love of the Father is not in him.

16 For all that is in the world, 

the lust of the flesh, 

and the lust of the eyes, 

and the pride of life, 

is not of the Father, but is of the world.

17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: 

but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

Put your hope in JESUS alone.

Peace in life, and victory over sin, can only come through the MIGHTY GOD, and the PRINCE of PEACE.

Isaiah 9:6

King James Version

6 For unto us a child is born, 

unto us a son is given: 

and the government shall be upon his shoulder: 

and his name shall be called Wonderful, 

Counsellor, 

The mighty God, 

The everlasting Father, 

The Prince of Peace.

THE NARROW GATE THROUGH WHICH FEW ENTER: THE HARD TRUTH OF JESUS

Image: Clipart Library

The PEACE solution

 Isaiah 60:1-3

King James Version

60 Arise, shine; for thy light is come, 

and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.

2 For, behold, 

the darkness shall cover the earth, 

and gross darkness the people: 

but the Lord shall arise upon thee, 

and his glory shall be seen upon thee.

3 And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, 

and kings to the brightness of thy rising.

We thought hard about this.

How there can be peace in this world.

How people can think clearly, fairly, and justly.

How nations can be safe again.

We sifted through much material.

Looking into what's happening in the world.

How nations are beginning to secure their borders.

Which we actually encouraged, nearly a year ago.

SPIRIT and I created "FORTIFY your FORTRESS" then.

Apart from nations, we also encouraged you secure your soul.

Secure your families, your schools, your communities, your cities, your governments.

CHRIST's enemy is up to no good.

He NEVER was into any good.

Anything that is close to GOD's heart, Satan will destroy.

Thus, you need to "fortify".

You need to "wake up".

You need to see how far the "infiltration" has gone.

You need to "sift" the wheat, from the chaff.

You need to "review", "rebuild", "regroup", "restore", "replenish".

You need to "secure" your "borders".

You need to "repent".

We knew there was going to be trouble.

We knew borders aren't safe anymore.

We knew infiltration will reach its peak.

We know trouble brews at every corner.

We know people are "asleep".

We know many don't care.

Forcibly pushing their left, and woke, agenda.

Attacking anyone who didn't think as they do.

Not realizing they've laid their soul bare to Satan.

The result?

The enemy has held 

the whole world "hostage"

And then Trump "happened".

The outspoken president-elect fought for common sense.

Finally, someone of the right mind!

A trait the world needs so badly today.

Trump wants real change.

He's had enough of nonsense.

I don't know about you, but I feel the same way, too.

He wants to secure America's borders.

He wants nothing to do with the left, woke, and crime.

Many leaders pay attention to him now.

Where before they mocked him, now they marvel at him.

And they want to jump onto his train.

GOD gave him this second chance to do better.

As we said, only Trump has the "stomach" for it.

Now, nations are beginning to see their follies, too.

Now, they don't want the left, the woke, and militants.

Now, they want to secure their borders.

Now, they have tougher laws on migrants, immigrants, refugees, and asylum-seekers.

Now, they don't want dubious characters anymore.

While before, they welcomed anyone, and everyone.

With their leaders careless, and unthinking.

Trump, Elon, and Vivek took their cue from Hungary and Argentina.

Whose leaders "slashed" at waste, and foolishness.

How can you tell the good, from the bad?

How can you tell who's legit, or a terrorist?

Is it too late to "clean" up our nations?

Not if you do one thing:

PRAY to be BORN AGAIN.

That's actually TWO things:

Pray.

Be born again.

Why do I say "pray"?

Because you need to seek GOD.

You need to talk to Him.

You need to repent of your sins.

But how can you know your sins, unless you're born again?

Only GOD can make you born again.

Only His SPIRIT can convert you.

Only His SPIRIT can teach you about JESUS.

Once you learn about JESUS, He will teach you about GOD.

Then you will have the peace you desire.

Because it first starts with you.

On the choice you make.

How can you promote peace, if you're not peaceful?

How can you know truth, if you don't have GOD's SPIRIT in you?

How can you promote justice, if you don't know GOD's laws?

It's all logical, sequential, and consequential.

All the peace, truth, love, honor, and justice you desire can only be taught by the HOLY SPIRIT.

Through JESUS.

Isaiah 9:6

King James Version

6 For unto us a child is born, 

unto us a son is given: 

and the government shall be upon his shoulder: 

and his name shall be called Wonderful, 

Counsellor, 

The mighty God, 

The everlasting Father, 

The Prince of Peace.

Who only taught us GOD's will.

And gave GOD glory alone.

That all conform to those.

JESUS represented GOD on earth.

He was GOD, made man.

He was the LAST emissary.

When will you begin to listen?

When will you see GOD's logic?

When will you want to be saved?

Today is the best day to make that decision.

PRAY to be BORN AGAIN.

GOD, and good things, can come from that.

Commit to be humble, teachable, and thus, childlike.

I can't have told you all these things until, and unless, I went through the process.

I started with self first.

I was tired of sin, and sought GOD.

Then, after five months, He showed up.

He made me born again in 2019.

Today, we celebrate our 64 months!

This is our post, to honor such a marvelous day!

SPIRIT and I have 111 blogs and 24 ebooks for GOD's glory.

All teaching material about being born again.

And knowing the benefits of becoming one.

Making us know the ways of GOD, and man.

With Scripture attesting to all that.

Nations come, nations go.

Only the WORD of GOD remains.

Prophet Isaiah said it:

Isaiah 40:8 

King James Version

8 The grass withereth, 

the flower fadeth: 

but the word of our God 

shall stand for ever.

JESUS said it:

Luke 21:33 

King James Version

33 Heaven and earth shall pass away: 

but my words shall not pass away.

That's why I'm peaceful.

I know GOD's laws.

I know man's ways.

I know the world's ways.

I know Satan's ways.

The Bible told me everything.

Past, present, future.

My peace lies in JESUS.

Who happens to be Scripture.

20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; 

that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; 

that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

As the days go by, the world seems crazier.

It's as if Satan was given free rein, to reign.

He can bulldoze his way through a market, where people shop.

He can send rockets and missiles to Israel's cities.

He can make outgoing leaders create one more foolish act.

He can create crime, where he will.

Chaos, cruelty, and confusion proliferate.

The everyday man asks if there's GOD.

The atheist doesn't believe in any.

The born again knows He exists.

All the while, GOD observes:

Psalm 14:2 

King James Version

2 The Lord looked down from heaven 

upon the children of men, 

to see if there were any that did understand, 

and seek God.

In answer, apostle Paul writes this:

Romans 3:11 

King James Version

11 There is none that understandeth, 

there is none that seeketh after God.

Romans 3:12 

King James Version

12 They are all gone out of the way, 

they are together become unprofitable; 

there is none that doeth good, 

no, not one.

And yet, by GOD's very power, we exist.

The born again know what GOD can do:

Zechariah 4:6

King James Version

6 Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, 

This is the word of the Lord 

unto Zerubbabel, saying, 

Not by might, 

nor by power, 

but by my spirit, 

saith the Lord of hosts.

John 15:5

King James Version

5 I am the vine, 

ye are the branches: 

He that abideth in me, and I in him, 

the same bringeth forth much fruit: 

for without me ye can do nothing.

All this power, He gave His Son.

Ephesians 1:19-23

King James Version

19 And what is the exceeding greatness 

of his power to us-ward who believe, 

according to the working of his mighty power,

20 Which he wrought in Christ, 

when he raised him from the dead, 

and set him at his own right hand 

in the heavenly places,

21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, 

and dominion, and every name that is named, 

not only in this world, 

but also in that which is to come:

22 And hath put all things under his feet, 

and gave him to be the head 

over all things to the church,

23 Which is his body, 

the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

If we are to survive these dark days, we are to trust in JESUS alone:

Psalm 2:12

King James Version

12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, 

and ye perish from the way, 

when his wrath is kindled but a little. 

Blessed are all they 

that put their trust in him.
