All the deceased BORN AGAIN believers in Christ Jesus; and then all the living BORN AGAIN believers, will be caught up in the clouds to Jesus to be transformed into our eternal bodies.

This all takes place in the clouds, as it shows His feet do not touch the earth at that time.

We attend the Wedding Feast of the Bridegroom and later the Bema Seat Judgement of believers, to receive crowns for what we did or, did not do on earth. It will be a time of joy, and for some, sorrow.

The Great White Throne Judgment doesn't occur till after 1000 years, when the wicked dead will be judged.

Mishael

Their decayed leviathan body's had become the lands, that we are living on!

My pastor did a message on angels, our ministering spirits and said that the Lord sends healing angels to us. I always thought only Jesus/God heals? I could not find healing angel in the bible. Where is it?

Wesley's Notes for Genesis 5:24

5:24 He was not, for God took him - That is, as it is explained, # Heb 11:5, he was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him. But why did God take him so soon? Surely because the world, which was now grown corrupt, was not worthy of him. Because his work was done, and done the sooner for his minding it so closely. He was not, for God took him - He was not any longer in this world: it was not the period of his being, but of his being here. He was not found; so the apostle explains it from the seventy; not found by his friends, who sought him, as the sons of the prophets sought Elijah, # 2Kings 2:17. God took him body and soul to himself in the heavenly paradise, by the ministry of angels, as afterwards he took Elijah. He was changed, as those saints shall be that will be found alive at Christ's second coming.

Comment by Mishael: much like Adam in Genesis; before he and Eve ate the fruit.

Thank you for your comment and it feels good to know there are others see the truth.

Psalm 101 v 6

Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land , that they may dwell with me : he that walketh in a perfect way , he shall serve me .

Verse 7 ...

Luke 21 v 7 , 8

And they asked him , saying , Master , but when shall these things be ? And what sign will there be when these things shall come to pass ?

And He said Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name , saying I AM Christ ; and the time draweth near : go ye not therefore after them .

John 11 v 24 , 25 , 26 ,27

She saith unto him , Yea Lord I believe that thou art the Christ , the Son of God which should come into the world .

A prayer request for my past Father (Faustino C. Amores Sr), Brother (Elvis Iligan Amores), Relatives and friends. if their souls are not yet in heaven please pray for them. Thank you and God bless.

Please pray for my Family and friends for a good health, please pray for my friend to touch his heart because he don't believe that God is real and Jesus is the savior. Thank you and may God bless you always.

here in chapter 2 verse 43 where it says "they shall mingle themselves with the seeds of men"

who are the "they" and what does mingle refer to?

I love Jesus Christ and I have been feeling in need of making a new move by faith. I have been longing for a closer relationship in the Holy Spirit. I am almost 68 yrs old dealing with a forthcoming spine surgery. I have been struggling the last 20 years of my life with back and hip pain. I am. Scheduled for my fifth spinal surgery on September 30. This time with two doctors, one a neurosurgeon and the other a orthopedic surgeon. I need to have a MRI on Sept. 17 scan next week under anesthesia because I can not lay flat for the scan because my spine is so twisted. I also need to have a pre-op physical, Cat Scan, Covid test and a blood work up. We are still trying to pay off our medical bills from my spinal surgery last year. I have to deal with increasing back pain currently as I have some part of the rod and screws are protruding a half-inch out of my back. I thought I was going to have to go to the hospital last because the pain was so intense. I spend most days at home alone. My wife retired once but is now working 2 days a week to off set our income. Because of being in pain constantly it is hard for to pray in the Spirit. God is so good to his children! Please pray that I would find the peace that passeth understanding in this season of my life. May God richly bless His ministry worldwide for HIS GLORY ALONE!

Grungebyte, you said "The Rapture which was an invention by an Irish priest in 1830 after a 15-year old Irish girl related her dream to him. To this day many Christians still believe in that foolishness." I believe in the Rapture as prophesied in the KJV Bible: My Pastor says when things are repeated 3 or more times, they're important. There are other scriptures foretelling the Rapture so it must be important.

1 Thessalonians 4:17 - 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.

1 Thessalonians 4:16 - 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:

1 Corinthians 15:52 - In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

Matthew 24:31 - And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

Luke 12:40 - Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.

1 Thessalonians 5:2 - For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.

Matthew 24:42 - Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

Mark 13:32-33 - But of that day and [that] hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. 33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.

Matthew 24:27 - For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

On ISAIAH 56:5

By nature every person is born in sin through the sinful seed of their natural fathers and conditioned therein ( 1 Peter 1:23). For that reason and in order to become a son of God, which are born of God, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God, a person must be 'Born Again' ( John 1:12,13; 3:3-7; 1 John 3:9; 5:4).

By attending a man-made institution a few hours a week ( Acts 7:48; 17:24), does not mean that a person can make a claim that they are followers of Christ and 'Born Again'. That is falsehood, as in truth they follow after an image of a false god and a false Christ ( Matthew 24:24; Mark 13:22; Gal. 4:8; Rev. 12:9). This is how Satan has transformed Himself into an angel of light ( 2 Cor. 11:13-15).

Only through 'True Repentance' will God be able to reveal Himself, and adopt you as His sons and daughters ( Rom. 8:15,23; 2 Cor.6:18; Gal. 4:5; Eph. 1:5; Hebr. 12:5; 1 John 3:1).

The word 'Repent' means a lot more than what people by nature have been conditioned to believe. It is the key principle of all the teachings of Jesus Christ and the axiom (basis) of the Word of God and a prerequisite and primary requirement for the salvation of mankind. It actually means the changing of spirits - to turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan unto God ( Acts 26:18).

For a better understanding and the 'spiritual truth' of what it means to repent, and learn how and by whom mankind has been deceived ( Rev. 12:9), and what people must do to be reunited with the true and living God, we invite you to seek Him according to the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive ( John 14:17).

You need not that any man teach you ( Isaiah 54:13; 6:45; 1 John 2:27), It is only by revelation of God that you will come to know Christ ( Daniel 12:4,9; Amos 3:7; Matthew 16:17; Luke 2:26; Romans 16:25; 1 Cor. 2:10; Gal. 1:16; Eph. 3:3,5; Rev. 1:1). It is a narrow way that leadeth unto 'Life', and few there be that find it ( Matthew 7:14).

Brothers, this was a wonderful discussion! Very thought provoking. I can hardly wait to return to it and pick up my own study on the topic as I have yet to solidify my own beliefs on the rapture. Thank you and God Bless you!

thank you so much it worked today i am fine no implants he saved my teeth and did a great job no pain my son made me so proud thak you i do believe

explain john 14:12 for me especially the works

1-21 above we learn JEHOVAH /GOD allow the 'vials of the wrath of GOD' being poured out where applicable.

Note: re-read verse 5,6,7, above and consider mankind who is made from GOD'S dust of the ground plus GOD blessed us by breathing into us life, then GOD has to exercise HIS WILL as in verse 21 upon HIS creation. I no longer waste time asking why GOD this and that, instead I rejoice my name is written in THE BOOK by-way of John 3:16-21 and similar verses.

Good morning, Does the Gospel message really allow brethren to be warriors and lambs in the same body of Christ? That breast plate of righteousness is it not love for the truth? Who is the harvest field and who are the harvesters? What was I before my repentance?

Carleton

in Daniel 11:35 what is meant by "and to make them white"?

Please keep me in your prayers , protect me from the evil one

God help me to become the woman you want me to be in Jesus name

Thank you for your years of service, military and others. Bless God that you are here to minister in the wisdom that God has given to you! I appreciate you, brother.

To Fred: excellent comment on that verse!

I will remember that forever. Thank you.

Please pray my heart is healed. Pray my rib heals. Pray Denise, Brian and I are healthy and safe. Pray I get a good night sleep. Thx

That was very interesting what you mentioned, Tameka.

Many years ago, I heard a preacher share how, at the start of each day, he would take each piece of his spiritual armour & animatedly put it on himself. This made the act of preparedness to face each day, with the Enemy of our souls at the door, a graphical reminder of how every part of his body was prepared for the day's battle. This at first sounded a little childish & simplistic, but it meant to him, being alert in mind & spirit as he stepped outside his front door. I say, that if it takes a few minutes each day to do this & we are better prepared to tackle the enemy, then go for it. But watchfulness is the key & not spiritual slumber. May you grow closer to your Lord & win many battles with your holy Armour.

The Book of Psalms is a collection of lyrical poems written by a number of authors. The Book was originally entitled, "Tehillim" which, in Hebrew, means 'Praise Songs'. The English title, 'Psalms' originated from the Greek title, 'Psalmoi' & also meant 'Songs of Praise'.

The Psalms became the hymnal of God's people, with its words often set to music, but not always. The Psalms expressed the authors' emotion to God or about Him, and different Psalms were written to communicate the author's feeling & emotions about the situation they might have been experiencing. That's why the Psalms are so treasured through the ages as they often reflect what the person who is reading them might also be going through & also to encourage him to still bless the Lord in spite of the situation.

But to your question: most of the Psalms were written by King David (73 Psalms we know of, maybe more). Asaph wrote 12; Korah 10; Moses 1; King Solomon 2; Ethan & Heman 2 each; the remaining Psalms have not been given their author's names.

If you can, you can read the narrative in the O.T. books that give background to the writing of a particular Psalm. If you have a Study Bible, often a reference will be given in the margin or the notes at the bottom. Otherwise, the internet might also give you help. But to start you off: Read 1 Samuel 19:10.11 & then read Psalm 59; 1 Samuel 21:10-15 with Psalm 56; 1 Samuel 21:10 to 22:2 with Psalm 34; 1 Samuel 22:9 with Psalm 52. This helps to understand the Psalms a little better.

I really need a prayer for my family and me. Pray that we are all healthy and that any sickness we have will go away. Pray for peace of mind and that I will leave everything to God. Pray we all grow closer to him each day and live by his commandments. Pray for Covid to go away. Pray for no abortions. Pray for peace. God Bless

Amen! Praise His Holy Name!

Alice,

The true church is made up of all believers who have been born of God's Spirit. The true church is not an organization or denomination, whether it be Protestant or Catholic. There is only one true church and it is called the body of Christ. All who have surrendered their lives to Jesus Christ and been born of His Spirit belong to the true church, His body, and we are the ones who He will come for and He will remove us before He pours out His wrath on an unbelieving world. If you've received Christ, you are part of the true church, His body!

Was Enoch's translation by God ( Hebrews 11:5) part of the Rapture?
