2 | Understanding Rapture / Second coming ? | Revelation | Hecameforu | 31603 | ||
The Rapture is when the Lord comes back for his saints, and the Dead in Christ will rise and then we(christians) that are left will meet them in the clouds and be forever with the Lord. 1Thes. 4:13-18 The Second coming is when Jesus comes back in Power and Glory after the 7 year Tribulation. Also, read Matthew 24 now when the Rapture takes place as in before, during or after the Trib, there is much debate. I am of the frim belief that the saints will be raptured before the trib. For one thing, we are told that he will not leave us nor forsake us. Secondly, the Holy Spirit will not be around during the tribulation so the rapture cannot take place in the middle of the tribulation. Thirdly, The Rapture cannot be after the tribulation becuase "No man knoweth the hour". Our Lord can come at any time, at any second so to say that the rapture is after the Tribulation is saying that Jesus cannot come back today which is also saying that you know about when the Lord is coming back. With this thought, when the antichrist rises during the 7 year trib, a person can say, well a few more years and then I'll prepare for the Lord's coming. This cannot be, we must always be prepared because as the bible clearly states;"he will come as a thief and no man will know the hour". Revelation 3:3, Love in Christ, Barry |
