LEFT BEHIND
CHRISTIAN RAPTURE
Welcome back ... Glad you chose to take this Spiritual journey with
me.
Make sure you check the scripture that is being shared in this
study in your Bible as to confirm TRUTH.
Many Christians are under the impression
that ALL believers will be taken up to Heaven in what is
known as the Rapture BEFORE the Great Tribulation.
Now this is a beautiful ideology.
The problem is ...
The Bible says something completely different.
Now, do NOT get me wrong ...
There IS a Rapture and there are MANY
believers who will be raptured.
Since the central
focus of this particular study is on those Christians that are going to be left
behind, you can find the answers to any questions that you have
about the Raptures at:
BE SURE TO RETURN AFTER YOU CHECK OUT THE RAPTURE
STUDY
If you have read the study you are now aware that the Bible
reveals that there are in fact two RAPTURES and that even though
you may be a believer, you may still be left behind. Another
important fact to know is that when you become a Christian, that
doesn't mean that you will automatically be taken to Heaven in a
Rapture.
We don't get to choose if we are Raptured or not ...
God is the judge of that.
There are some interesting things that you might
want to know about those who will be Raptured, just in case
you're not one of them. First of all, if you're a Christian ... If you
believe that Jesus is the
Son of God
and that He died for your sins, was resurrected, and you accept Him
as your Savior, but you're not taken in a Rapture, that doesn't mean
that you're doomed or that Jesus doesn't love you.
It could simply mean
that God has a different calling for you. It doesn't necessarily
mean that you'll be put through fire either ... That all depends on
the choices you've made in your life. But just maybe God will leave
you here on earth during and/or after the End Times for other
reasons, which you'll discover in this study. So sit back, relax and
enjoy the new found wisdom that is about to be revealed to you. Now,
in case you did not catch this or decided not to check out the
Rapture study, I want to share a TRUTH with you about those Raptured
people ...
Many of you may have seen the movie series entitled
"Left Behind" which depicts the author's interpretation of what
things may be like during the End Times. While it offers many
interesting situations to consider, there are many things presented
in films that aren't Biblically sound. It's always important that
you confirm things in scripture. Then ... Interpretation is the most
important aspect of seeking TRUTH and without discernment from the
Holy Spirit
... You can be deceived.
In the "Left Behind" series, when the Rapture
occurs, those who are left behind discover the clothing of the
Raptured people neatly folded wherever they happened to be when they
were Raptured. This suggests that their PHYSICAL flesh was carried
away naked to Heaven.
Let us take a look and see if scripture is in harmony with this.
When Jesus was describing the Rapture to His
disciples in the Olivet Discourse, He said:
|
Luke 17:35-37
Two women shall be
grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the
other left.
And they answered and said unto Him, Where, Lord? And He said
unto them
...
Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered
together. |
But, there is another scripture in the book of
Matthew describing the same event which uses a different word in the
place of the word "body" ...
Matthew 24:28
For wheresoever the carcase
is, there will the eagles be gathered together. |
This clearly suggests that there will be carcasses
(dead bodies) left on earth, of the people who are taken up to
Heaven when the Rapture occurs.
This reveals that the theory shared in the movie
series "Left Behind" which suggests that when the Rapture occurs
that the Christians that are taken will have their clothing neatly
folded and their flesh will be taken to Heaven as being ...
Incorrect.
Let's look at what the Bible says happens to
Christians when they die ...
Keep in mind Christians do NOT die at the Rapture.
BUT ... Do Christians that pass on from this realm to the next really
DIE?

Our
BODY
returns to dust:
Genesis 3:19
For dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return. |
|
|
Our
SPIRIT
returns to God:
Ecclesiastes 12:7
Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the
spirit shall return unto God who gave it. |
|
|
When the righteous
dies, their SOUL
goes to
ABRAHAM’S BOSOM:
Luke 16:22
And it came to pass
that the beggar died and was carried by the angels into Abraham's
Bosom. |
|
IF one does the math on all scripture that has just
been shared,
It is OBVIOUS that at the Rapture ...
THE BODY STAYS BEHIND.
Obviously it isn't the flesh that is taken to Heaven, but rather our
soul that is taken.
The mortal bodies are gone and they receive an
immortal body.
|
1 Corinthians 15:51-54
Behold, I shew you a mystery;
We shall not all sleep, but
we shall all be changed.
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. For this corruptible must put on incorruption,
and
this mortal must put on
immortality. So when this
corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall
have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying
that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
|
It is important to understand that the flesh does
not rise to Heaven because the people ... and in particular,
antichrist ... that are here on earth will have to explain to those
on earth what has just occurred when the Rapture happens. IF there
are missing
people they would have to suggest one thing, and if there are dead
bodies, they would have to suggest another.
If there are dead bodies as we discovered is what
will occur, they would probably be able to blame a plague or some
natural disaster because there will be many OTHER events occurring at this
time on earth which they could use to explain away the dead bodies
as not to admit that it was the Christian Rapture as to deceive
those on earth who do not know TRUTH.
At the Rapture, the chosen souls meet the
Lord in the air and go straight to Heaven
as discussed in the rapture study.
I'd like to take you back to
Prepare 4 End Times
study
now, and ask you to check out
pages 3 and 4.
When you return, we'll continue with page 3 of this study and find
out what else happens ... To those LEFT BEHIND
