1 | RApture after the mark of the beast ?? | 1 John 2:27 | Emmy | 134027 | ||
The Rapture after the mark of the beast? 1 Thess 4:16 The dead in Christ rise first. Then the rapture. Conclusion: Rapture is after the 1st resurrection. Rev 20:4 In the first resurrection are saints who were martyred for not worshipping the beast and the image and for not taking the marks of the beast. If these are included in the first resurrection, then the first resurrection occurs AFTER the beast is worshipped, the image is made and worshipped and the mark of the beast is enforced. Conclusion: The worshipping of the beast, image and taking of the mark occur during tribulation period. In fact they are a big part of it. The first resurrection therefore occurs, during or after tribulations have started. Since the rapture follows the resurrection, therefore the rapture takes place during or after the tribulations. We know the rapture follows the resurrection. This is the best clue as to when the rapture occurs. WHEN DOES THE FIRST RESURRECTION OCCUR ? IS THE SEQUENCE OF EVENTS IN REV 20 give us the clue? Sequence in REV 20: Satan chained first resurrection thousand year reign of Christ with saints Satan released from pit to deceive the nations. Final war against Jerusalem and Christ Satan thrown into lake of fire 2nd resurrection final judgement at the great white thone. IN this sequence the resurrection is after tribulations are over and Satan is chained. If this is the correct, then the rapture occurs after tribulations as well since it follows the resurrection. If the resurrection and rapture is before tribulation, then the worshipping of the beast and image and the mark of the beast are all happening before the tribulations start, for martyrs to be included in it. |

"But the anointing that you received from him abides in you, and you have no need that anyone should teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about everything - and is true and is no lie, just as it has taught you - abide in him." 1 John 2:27 [ESV] Emmy: In your user profile you write: 'The annointing you have received teaches you all things and you have no need of a teacher." The Holy Spirit puts in our thoughts what God wants us to know about Him."' John is not denying the importance of gifted TEACHERS in the church (1 Cor. 12:28; Eph. 4:11). 1 Cor. 12:28 (ESV) And God has appointed in the church first apostles, second prophets, third TEACHERS, then miracles, then gifts of healing, helping, administrating, and various kinds of tongues. (Emphasis added.) Ephes. 4:11 (ESV) And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and TEACHERS, (Emphasis added.) (For more information see ID# 97395.) Grace to you, Kalos |
