Bible Question: Where in the bible does it say that Christ will return before the last trumpet sounds,The seventh, The second advent? |
Bible Answer: Matthew 24:31 (NKJV) 31 And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 (NKJV) 16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. 18 Therefore comfort one another with these words. These two verses tell of a trumpet sound that will herald the coming of the Lord. Some people connect these trumpet blasts with the 7 trumpet blasts mentioned in the Book of Revelation. However there is not direct connection made in scripture so it is impossible to confirm or deny this. |
