Re: RAPTURE


THE BIBLE SAYS,


"FOR THE LORD HIMSELF WILL COME DOWN FROM HEAVEN WITH A LOUD COMMAND,WITH THE VOICE OF AN ARCHANGEL AND WITH THE TRUMPET CALL OF GOD,AND THE DEAD IN CHRIST WILL RISE FIRST.AFTER THAT WE WHO ARE STILL ALIVE AND ARE LEFT WILL BE CAUGHT UP TOGETHER WITH THEM IN THE CLOUDS TO MEET THE LORD IN THE AIR.AND SO WE WILL BE WITH THE LORD FOREVER.THEREFORE ENCOURAGE EACH OTHER WITH THESE WORDS."(1 THESSALONIANS 4:16-1


I read your message and I do think that it is inspiring in the sense that the day of the Lord is soon and we are to redeem the time for the days are evil, also it is very important for us as christians at this end of the times to watch and pray. God forbid it that when He comes we will be found wanting.


I do disagree though about the rapture for there is no place in the Bible that talks about it. The preceeding verse is talking about being caught up into the realms of the spirit-the first heaven from where we fell. It does not mean that we will be floating in the air. The Lord coming down speaks of ... thy kingdom come ... where? in us, to this earth. Sorry I am not with my Bible at the moment to check it out but in one of the gospels Jesus said that the kingdom of God comes not with observation, it is not something that we will see with our naked eyes. But what did he say? He said that the kingdom of God is WITHIN men. The kingdom of God is here on earth.


Righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost this is the kingdom of God. It is a state of being. Amen


May God bless you all.

DEAR FRIEND,




GREETINGS IN JESUS' MIGHTY NAME!




LAST EVENING WHILE WE AS A FAMILY WERE DISCUSSING THE WORLD EVENTS THAT HAVE ENSUED SINCE THE SEPT.11 TERRORIST ATTACKS IN THE U.S.A ,OUR TALKS BORDERED ON THE POSSIBILITY OF A THIRD WORLD WAR THAT COULD WIPE OUT A MAJOR PORTION OF MANKIND.




THIS USHERED IN THE TOPIC OF THE RETURN OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST TO GATHER HIS FAITHFUL ONES.


THAT MOST BLESSED EVENT CALLED RAPTURE.




MY MIND RACED TO A WONDERFUL VISION THE LORD GAVE ME SOMETIME BACK.I HOPE YOU WHO READ THIS ARE STRENGTHENED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT IN THESE PERILIOUS TIMES THAT THE WORLD IS FACING.




IN THE VISION ,I SAW MYSELF WALKING ALONG A ROAD WITH A FRIEND OF MINE.WE WERE CARRYING UMBRELLAS AS IT WAS DRIZZLING.A QUIET AND PLEASANT DAY.THERE WERE A LOT OF PEOPLE AROUND INVOLVED IN THIER DAILY CHORES.




SUDDENLY THERE WAS A GREAT CHANGE IN THE SURROUNDINGS.IT STARTED GETTING DARK.LIGHTNING FLASHED ACROSS THE SKY.A DISTANT RUMBLING OF THUNDER WAS HEARD.THE DRIZZLE HAD NOW BECOME A DOWNPOUR.


THE LIGHTNINGS INCREASED IN SPEED AND INTENSITY AND THE THUNDERBOLTS WERE BACK-BREAKING.I HAD NEVER WITNESSED SUCH A SIGHT BEFORE.




FEAR GRIPPED ME.I TOLD MY FRIEND,"I AM VERY AFRAID".THE LIGHTNINGS STRUCK AROUND US HERE AND THERE,BUT DID NOT TOUCH US.




MY STEPS FALTERED AS I WALKED.


MY FRIEND SPOKE TO ME AND SAID,"WHY ARE YOU FEARFUL?


JUST PRAISE THE LORD."




A NEW FAITH SPRUNG UP IN ME.I STARTED WALKING WITH STRONGER STRIDES.I STARTED PRAISING GOD LOUDLY.AND SO DID HE.




AND THEN IT HAPPENED.




IN JUST A MOMENT,IN THE TWINKLING OF AN EYE,


A HUGE BOLT OF LIGHTNING PROCEEDED FROM THE SKY TOWARDS US AND BURST IN FRONT OF US AND BEFORE WE KNEW IT WE WERE SOARING IN THE SKY TO MEET THE LORD IN THE CLOUDS.THAT WAS A TRULY EXHILIRATING MOMENT.


HALLELUJAH!PRAISE THE LORD.




RAPTURE IS NOT FAR MY DEAR FRIEND!


IF JESUS SHOWED ME THIS VISION OF RAPTURE,I BELIEVE IT WILL HAPPEN IN THIS LIFETIME OF MINE.


WHAT TIME?WHAT DAY?WHAT YEAR?NO ONE KNOWS ,EXCEPT THE LORD.




THE BIBLE SAYS,


"FOR THE LORD HIMSELF WILL COME DOWN FROM HEAVEN WITH A LOUD COMMAND,WITH THE VOICE OF AN ARCHANGEL AND WITH THE TRUMPET CALL OF GOD,AND THE DEAD IN CHRIST WILL RISE FIRST.AFTER THAT WE WHO ARE STILL ALIVE AND ARE LEFT WILL BE CAUGHT UP TOGETHER WITH THEM IN THE CLOUDS TO MEET THE LORD IN THE AIR.AND SO WE WILL BE WITH THE LORD FOREVER.THEREFORE ENCOURAGE EACH OTHER WITH THESE WORDS."(1 THESSALONIANS 4:16-1




DEAR FRIEND,


THIS VISION IS NOT ONLY FOR ME.BUT FOR YOU,YOUR FAMILY,YOUR RELATIVES,YOUR FRIENDS,NEAR AND FAR.




SO FORWARD THIS LETTER TO AS MANY AS YOU CAN.
