1 Corinthians 15:52 even states when Christ will return ... at "the last trumpet"
the Greekbword for Trump here isvthe clarion call or the last call as in a bar and is only found in 1 other place ... Revelation at judgement ... there is no "rapturing" the church out .
The English translation of 1 Thes. 4:17 , where Paul introduced the rapture, reads in part,
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.
In the Greek language the word translated "caught up" is harpazo. It literally means to seize, or carry off. About 1700 years ago, when the Bible was translated from Greek into Latin, they used a word we pronounce "rapture" to translate harpazo. (Rapture is a word of Latin origin that also means "to carry off".) Not being a Greek word, rapture is not part of the original language of 1 Thes. 4:17. And since our English Bibles are translated directly from Greek, it doesn't appear in our translations either. But while the word itself is not there, the event it describes certainly is.

When God wrote the Bible did he make a mistake and leave out the Word Rapture? Because the Word rapture is not in the Bible nor does it ever describe a rapture. When doing researching, one will find, (what will happen to those that are asleep will rise first, then the ones that are still remaining will be caught up...etc) This is TOTALLY 2nd coming of Christ.
Genesis 1:10 KJV(10) And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.
God called the "dry" land Earth as the meek shall inherit the earth. The dry, meek heart shall be dried of the waters of strife as they will humbly hear the opening up of His mouth that will teach us. He will open up the Scriptures to our hearing ears and we are to take heed on how we hear for we shall be given more.
Matthew 5:2 KJV
(2) And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
Happy are the meek for they shall inherit the Earth as they shall hear HIs teaching humbly. The "dry" heart shall be dried of all evil and evil speaking....the waters of strife. God called the dry land "Earth" for the meek shall inherit the earth.
Matthew 5:5 KJV
(5) Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
But the gathering of the waters are people who will resist what they hear and don't understand as the "raging waves of the sea" foaming out their own shame as they speak a multiple amount/superfluity of evil words in their envy and strife. The wicked shall not understand Him as the "blackness of darkness" is reserved for them.
Jude 1:13 KJV
(13) Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.
The wicked are like the troubled sea when it cannot rest whose waters cast up mire and dirt (as they will speak multiple evil words in their contention of His teaching). There is no peace to the wicked.
Isaiah 57:18-21 KJV
(18) I have seen his ways, and will heal him: I will lead him also, and restore comforts unto him and to his mourners.
(19) I create the fruit of the lips; Peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is near, saith the LORD; and I will heal him.
(20) But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt.
(21) There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.
God remind us that even the righteous perish, we all must return back to the dust that why it's so important to walk a Christian life best as possible and seek the Lord for strength, we cannot do it on our own. temptation come before us we need help to over come it, it so important to have a connection with the Lord. if we're not careful the littles temptation seem harmless and will lead us astray, let us seek Lord with all our heart.
Could verse 1 be the rapture? And will there be so few that nobody notices? Remnant? Make every effort to make sure of your salvation. Have to be 'righteous'. Bible says sin is all unrighteousness. God be thanked that we were sinners, but have believed from the heart that form of doctrine that was delivered us. Now being free from sin, we become servants of righteousness. Jesus took away our sins!
Verse 20 "But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt. Verse 21 There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked".
WOW! WOW! WOW! Today / this hour the wicked is artfully putting it armys in place around the world so Church ensure indivisualy we have put on the 'Whole Armor Of God' because the last, final crusaide against the Church has started.
God comforted me with verse when my lovely hearted sister-in law died. I was so hurt by it that sitting at my desk the Lord told me to read this passage and my tears dried up. She was my student in Sunday school as well. Jesus cares about our pain and consoles us with his words. We are passing through, we didn’t come to stay. But nevertheless when loved ones leaves, it hurts and don’t understand.
Peter; I'm so sorry about your daughter. There are no words to express the pain and sorrow; and little we can do to comfort other but weep and pray. This is an evil world and our time is short; and the ones whom we love are most precious and so very much needed. Our comfort and strength is Jesus, who stands with us; and the Word He has promised to wipe away all our tears. You shall see her again!
Yes, my daughter was taken when just over 3 and a half. We are sure the Lord has done all things well. Our God has prepared great things for us in glory and we won't be disappointed. It puts things in perspective to have had such a loss. Wonderful Saviour!
V. 57 - It says the RIGHTEOUS shall be taken away from the evil to come. Isaiah was a prophet and the Lord gave him this prophecy of the Rapture - before the evil, i.e. GREAT tribulation. We will and do have tribulation in our walk with Him, as one on here has said, because Jesus (Himself no less) - said so. But we know it's not the WRATH TO COME - Jesus said so, Rom. 1:18. UN - righteousness!!.
"For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones." Isaiah 57:15
PARADOX. Behold verse fifteen ! Heavenly Abba Dad and God Almighty Yahweh, raise up that servant according to your Holy and Matchless Word and send him forth in and through your Son our Blessed Lord and near future Majesty King to come Christ Yeshua Jesus Glory Amen indeed. SHALOM ISRAEL ZION ! COME LORD YESHUA GLORY AMEN AND AMEN ! Shalom yedda dim.
His mercy endures the foever. If you believe. We have to go through somethings. If we are not tested how would you now you are saved. Through Christ we are conquerors.
Some say our SAVIOUR will pour His wrath upon both the righteous and unrighteous which is a most-unrighteous belief in itself. Do not strive with these but rejoice in the truth of the Father's Word and preach the truth as you receive it from Him. We must love our enemies. In Christ, God bless you. Psalms 31:18 Let the lying lips be put to silence which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous. Psalms 119:163 I hate and abhor lying: but thy law do I love. Psalms 145:20 The LORD preserveth all them that love him: but all the wicked will he destroy. John 11:26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?
Ed, God bless. With all thanks to the LORD JESUS, that is the meaning of Isaiah 57:1. There is tribulation now and the world is nearing great tribulation which is the wrath of God on the children of disobedience. Yet some deny the LOVE of the truth and try to belittle our LORD'S sacrifice. 2 Thessalonians 2:10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. Colossians 3:6 For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:
It is written... John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. Matthew 24:5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ and shall deceive many. 2 Thessalonians 2:10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. Proverbs 22:3 A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished. Isaiah 57:1 The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart: and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come. Proverbs 10:18 He that hideth hatred with lying lips, and he that uttereth a slander, is a fool. Matthew 24: 48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming 49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken 50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of, 51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Proverbs 8:13 The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.

Hi Rick -thanks for sharing and will pray . 37 years ago The Lord met and healed me and not had a setback since it took 5 years but when I put myself completely in his hands ,I was made free . Bit of a battle for those 5 years but it was all part of the healing process in my case .God bless you
God loves us so much and because of his love He sent his only begotten Son Jesus Christ to save us and give us life. We are already forgiven and pardoned, we are now live because of his forgiveness. Jesus himself is the word of God, we must accept and obey his words until rapture. He is the only Jehovah, Our Provider, Our Peace and Righteousness there is no other above name its only Jesus. We must walk with Faith and not by sight, Lets be Still and know that He is God. Thanks be to Jesus for his precious blood that shed for us, from his blood we are washed by our unrighteousness and we are cleansed by our sins. Blessed are those who follow and live like Jesus for we are saved until rapture. Thank you Jesus and Amen
It would seem to me as a people or more particularly a person who has, as the previous verses imply , hopped in bed with the world and departed from God, but when he realizes the error of his ways, he is left for a while to see if his companies the things or people he was entangled with will deliver him. But they will not, for the wind shall carry them away and vanity shall take them because they are useless. Such is vanity. But when he puts his trust in the Lord he shall inherit Gods holy mountain, which is a place of prayer, in much of the old bible it 's the only place to pray except for prophets and such. When he is able to pray, his prayer would be much like verse 14, to cast up or move away from him all these things that have hindered and led astray for him and so many others. Get it out of my way, I 'm done with it, don 't want any more part of it, Be gone! Much like Jesus says in the new testament "Get behind me Satan! " And having done this it goes on to the next verse where God dwells with and even revives the heart and spirit of the humble and contrite. Praise God for His loving kindness and tender mercies.
Isaiah 57 5 is god 's gracious, definitive, passionate and extra time offer of repentance to the sly sinners , 'draw near ' vs 3,though he sees all sorceries and spiritual adultery of his people,god can 't be mocked,the sinners works are bare in his sight as when occult practices of easterners was shown to ezekiel the prohet.see ezekiel 8. jos city ,nigeria
