The rapture light and his glory

[Joshua-777]

Well, this is what Jesus said.

 

Luke 21:25 “And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring;  26 men’s hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.  27 Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.  28 Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near.”

 

 

Sounds exactly like this day

 

Revelation 6:12 I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood.  13 And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its late figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind.  14 Then the sky receded as a scroll when it is rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved out of its place.  15 And the kings of the earth, the great men, the rich men, the commanders, the mighty men, every slave and every free man, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains,  16 and said to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb!  17 For the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?”

 

When that happens we'll either have confidence before Him or be ashamed before Him.

 

1 John 2:28 And now, little children, abide in Him, that when He appears, we may have confidence and not be ashamed before Him at His coming

As for the length of time it will actually take to rise up to Jesus, maybe nice and slow so we can see it happening and Him waiting in the clouds.  But for the "we will be changed in the twinkling of an eye" part, I heard Chuck Missler describe it this way......

 

Light travels at 1860,000 miles per second, you know, around the world 7 times in one second.  But for light to travel through the thickness of the retina of the eye, is the smallest amount of time possible, as you can only divide a second of time in half so many times before time does not exist.  The equation for it is ..... 10 to the minus 42 seconds.  It's like millions and millions of times faster than you can blink.  That's a pretty fast twinkle alright.

Yes,the thought of floating up nice and slow sounds nice but that is not the way God has it planned for whatever reason.I also think we will have a guardian angel escorting us.

I like the guardian Angel part.  That way, the Angel can explain all about the pre-tribulation to the mid and post Christians that will be going with us.

It is only speculation on my part I think.I thought I have seen something in scripture about that.I am sure that God wants to make sure that we do not have any complications getting home.Satan always has something up his sleeve.

It may be that in the twinkling of and eye as one is changed the split millisecond after the change; time; is not part of your life anymore.

So from the gathering to Jesus in the air  to heaven we may not conceive time anymore and we may not think of speed as we do now.

it could be we  will not see dimly a split second after the rapture

Hmmm...that is an interesting thought

If we are opened to the upper dimensions as I tend to think we will be, you would be exactly right.....     Steven Hawkins could explain how that works....   even though he is an anti-believer.    How sad is that...

I have an interesting question.

When or if the rapture occurs in 2 years or 20 years, what are we to expect.

Does scripture give a description of what the rapture will be like and feel like.

Will it be bright and quick, or just quick.

Will we be blinded by his glory or wrapped up in love.

Will we be encompassed by a bubble that is filled with God's love.

What will we experience from the rapture on earth right before take off.

These questions have been burning on my mind for a little bit. - DRS81

 

LOL

 

Well, your brain is certainly ticking.  But, don't be so quick to go beyond what is written.

 

There is nothing that says our glorified bodies will be blinded by His glory, so don't think that they will.  How else can we behold Him as He really is if He's too bright to even look at?  And why wouldn't God want His beloved servants and children look at Him and be at awe?  God is type of show off you know.  lol  Have you never read Him boasting about Himself in Scripture?  He DESIRES the adoration and praises of His people.  In fact, my Father is probably the biggest attention craver in all existence.  LOL!  Even now, as I type this, I feel the smile of the Holy spirit ... actually AGREEING with this pun.  lol

 

Concerning the Rapture.  I'm a little disheartened.  Ever since all this "blood moon" business, and the fact that the next set of blood moons wont take place for a few hundred years, I felt saddened.  I felt saddened because there will be a blood moon during the Tribulation period.  So, that means it could another few hundred years before the Rapture takes place.  I so wanted to experience that.  So want to get off of this planet.  So crave to be with the Lord, and the saints of old.  But, the world is not completely against Christianity yet.  It's heading that way, but it's not at that point yet.  And Islam is growing rapidly. 

 

Soon the persecution will be ... global. 

 

And the Catholic system is also watching, waiting.

 

It's coming, but the time is not yet at hand.  But the signs certainly are showing.

 

 

But anyway ... I suggest you just read the Bible.  It gives you all the answers you need.  Bubbles and blinding lights and stuff like that suggest that you either aren't reading, or you have a very lively imagination, or both.  So, read.

 

 

But here is what I see.

 

 

1)

Rapture.

 

2)

War in heaven as Satan and the demons fight Michael and the angels because Satan is trying to stop the raptured souls from entering Heaven, and if finally and permanetly banished from Heaven.

 

3)

Marriage supper feast of the Lamb in Heaven, were all the countless number of saints are in Heaven, praising God and the Lamb because their Salvation is secure and complete, and their troubles are over with ... all while Tribulation is going on in the earth.

 

4)

Gods promise to Jews still remains, however.  144,000 of the males (probably babies and very young boys) are sealed.  Satan is out to destroy Israel during the Tribulation.  God is pouring out his wrath on the earth. 

 

5)

Jesus returns right when all of the Jews are about to be annihilated.  In fact, Judaism teaches that they will see the Messiah when the nation faces complete extinction, or when they all convert at once, and in Revelation, it seems that both of these things happen at the same time.  Even Jesus told them, "You will not see Me again, not until you learn to say, "Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord." meaning, they will never see His face until they repent and convert and believe in Him.

 

6)

Jesus reigns for 1,000 years and those who are left on earth repopulate the planet, rebuild, etc.  But, since they are without temptation (Satan bound for 1,000 years), they too must be tempted to show that they love the Lord, or turn from Him.  Only then can they enter paradise.  So, Satan is allowed to tempt the world again for a period of time.  The Bible says that it will be for a short time ... but how many of you know that a "short time" to God can be a couple of thousands of years!?  {My hand shoots up first!}  Ooo that urks me.  lol  But it's all about His grace and mercy.

 

7)

Blah, blah, blah

 

The rapture is not going to be a daunting or discombobulating experience.  We will be perfectly aware and perfectly knowing.  No one will be like "Huh?  Where am I?  What happened?"  Dont miss it.  Cause if you do ... you will be on a world that does not have the Spirit of God and not a single saint will be on this planet (though a whole host of half-baked "Christians" and hypocrites and entire 'denominations' will be left behind, claiming that they are the true ones and the rapture is some sort of hoax.

 

Be ready.

Going into other dimensions?That would be an interesting study.Not that I could understand it
