John 14:6
King James Version
6 Jesus saith unto him,
I am the way, the truth, and the life:
no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
The RAPTURE is really very clear.
But only through SPIRIT can you believe.
Only through SPIRIT can you understand.
Only through SPIRIT will you want to be with JESUS.
Here's where SPIRIT led me about the imminent* RAPTURE.
In just FIVE sets of verses:
Matthew 24:39-42
King James Version
39 And knew not until the flood came,
and took them all away;
so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
40 Then shall two be in the field;
the one shall be taken, and the other left.
41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill;
the one shall be taken, and the other left.
42 Watch therefore:
for ye know not
what hour your Lord doth come.
Matthew 24:44
King James Version
44 Therefore be ye also ready:
for in such an hour as ye think not
the Son of man cometh.
Mark 13:32
King James Version
32 But of that day and that hour knoweth no man,
no, not the angels which are in heaven,
neither the Son, but the Father.
1 Corinthians 15:50-53
King James Version
50 Now this I say, brethren,
that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God;
neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
51 Behold, I shew you a mystery;
We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,
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.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption,
and this mortal must put on immortality.
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17
King James Version
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:
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.
In SUMMARY, here's what to expect from the RAPTURE:
two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left
Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
Watch therefore
ye know not what hour your Lord doth come
be ye also ready
in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh
of that day and that hour knoweth no man
not the angels which are in heaven
neither the Son, but the Father
flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God
neither doth corruption inherit incorruption
We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye
at the last trump
the trumpet shall sound
the dead shall be raised incorruptible
we shall be changed
this corruptible must put on incorruption
this mortal must put on immortality
the Lord himself shall descend from heaven
with a shout
with the voice of the archangel
with the trump of God
the dead in Christ shall rise first
we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them
in the clouds
to meet the Lord in the air
so shall we ever be with the Lord
