Caught Up Together, Gathering Together To Him

Matthew 24:36-44

 

“But of That Day and Hour NO ONE knows, NOT even The Angels of Heaven, but My Father (God Almighty) ONLY.  But as The Days of Noah were, so also will The Coming of The Son of Man (Jesus Christ) be.  For as in The Days before The Flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until The Day that Noah entered The Ark, and did NOT know until The Flood came and took them all away, so also will The Coming of The Son of Man (Jesus Christ) be.  Then two men will be in the field: One (Believers) will be Taken and the other (Unbelievers) left.  Two women will be grinding at the mill: One (Believers) will be Taken and the other (Unbelievers) left.  Watch therefore, for YOU do NOT know what Hour Your Lord (Jesus Christ) is Coming.  But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and NOT allowed his house to be broken into.  Therefore YOU also be ready, for The Son of Man (Jesus Christ) is Coming at an hour YOU (Believers) do NOT expect.”

 

1 Thessalonians 4:13-18

 

But I (Paul) do NOT want YOU (Believers) to be ignorant, Brethren (Believers), concerning those (Believers) who have Fallen Asleep (The Dead in Christ), lest YOU (Believers) sorrow as others who have NO Hope.  For if We (Believers) Believe that Jesus (Jesus Christ) died and Rose Again, even so God (God Almighty) will bring with Him (Jesus Christ) those who Sleep in Jesus (The Dead in Christ).  For this We (Believers) say to YOU (Believers) by The Word of The Lord (Jesus Christ), that We (Believers) who are Alive and Remain until The Coming of The Lord (Jesus Christ) will by no means precede those who are Asleep (The Dead in Christ).  For The Lord (Jesus Christ) Himself will descend from Heaven with a Shout, with The Voice of an Archangel, and with The Trumpet of God (God Almighty).  And The Dead in Christ, will Rise first.  Then We (Believers) who are Alive and Remain, shall be Caught Up Together with Them (The Dead in Christ) in The Clouds, to MEET The Lord (Jesus Christ) in the Air.  And thus We (Believers) shall ALWAYS be with The Lord (Jesus Christ).  Therefore comfort one another with these words.

 

2 Thessalonians 2:1-12

Now, Brethren (Believers), concerning The Coming of Our Lord Jesus Christ and Our (Believers) Gathering Together to Him (Jesus Christ), We ask YOU (Believers), NOT to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from Us (Jesus’ Disciples), as though The Day of Christ (Jesus Christ) had Come.  Let NO ONE deceive YOU (Believers), by any means; for That Day will NOT come, unless The Falling Away Comes First, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself (the man of sin) above all that is called God (God Almighty) or that is worshiped, so that he (the man of sin) sits as God, in The Temple of God (God Almighty), showing himself (the man of sin), that he (the man of sin) is God.  Do YOU (Believers) NOT remember, that when I (Paul) was still with YOU (Believers), I (Paul) told YOU (Believers) These Things?  And now YOU (Believers) know, what is restraining, that he (the man of sin) may be revealed, in his (the man of sin’s) own time.  For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He, who now restrains, will do so, until He is taken out of the way.  And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom The Lord (Jesus Christ) will Consume with The Breath of His (Jesus Christ’s) Mouth and Destroy with The Brightness of His (Jesus Christ’s) Coming.  The coming of the lawless one, is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception, among those (Unbelievers) who perish, because they (Unbelievers) did NOT Receive The Love of The Truth, that they (Unbelievers) might be Saved.  And for this reason, God (God Almighty) will send them (Unbelievers) Strong DELUSION, that they (Unbelievers) should believe the lie, that they (Unbelievers) All may be Condemned, who did NOT believe The Truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

1 Corinthians 15:50-58

 

Now this I (Paul) say, Brethren (Believers), that flesh and blood can NOT Inherit The Kingdom of God (God Almighty); nor does corruption Inherit Incorruption.  Behold, I (Paul) tell YOU (Believers) a mystery: We (Believers) shall NOT all sleep, but We (Believers) shall All be CHANGED, in a moment, in The Twinkling of an Eye, at The Last Trumpet.  For The Trumpet will Sound, and The Dead will be Raised Incorruptible, and We (Believers) shall be CHANGED.  For this corruptible MUST Put On Incorruption, and this mortal MUST Put On Immortality.  So when this corruptible has Put On Incorruption, and this mortal has Put On Immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: “Death is swallowed up in Victory.”  “O Death, where is your sting?  O Hades, where is your victory?”  The sting of death is sin, and the strength of sin is the law.  But thanks be to God (God Almighty), who gives Us (Believers) The Victory, through Our Lord Jesus Christ.  Therefore, my Beloved Brethren (Believers), be Steadfast, Immovable, Always Abounding in The Work of The Lord (Jesus Christ), KNOWING that Your (Believers) Labor is NOT in vain in The Lord (Jesus Christ).

Philippians 3:17-21

Brethren (Believers), join in following my (Paul’s) example, and note those (Believers) who so walk, as YOU (Believers) have Us (Jesus’ Disciples) for a Pattern.  For many walk, of whom I (Paul) have told YOU (Believers) often, and now tell YOU (Believers) even weeping, that they (Unbelievers) are the enemies of The Cross of Christ (Jesus Christ): whose end is destruction, whose god is their (Unbelievers) belly, and whose glory is in their (Unbelievers) shame, who set their (Unbelievers) mind on Earthly things.  For Our (Believers) Citizenship is in Heaven, from which We (Believers) also eagerly wait for The Savior, The Lord Jesus Christ, who will Transform Our (Believers) Lowly Body, that it may be CONFORMED to His (Jesus Christ’s) Glorious Body, according to The Working by which He (Jesus Christ) is Able even to Subdue All Things to Himself (Jesus Christ).

Fellow Believers, with all the talk of “The End of Times” and “The Rapture of The Church” these days, I have put together these verses from The Holy Bible, I pray YOU (Believers) STUDY The Holy Bible, Yourselves, to come to Your Own Conclusions.  Some Key words or phrases to consider are: “That Day”, “Caught Up Together”, “Gathering Together to Him”, and “The Falling Away”.  Each of them are referring to The Same Event, Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, Coming for Believers, as He (Jesus Christ) Promised.  The Holy Bible is clear, this event occurs before The Great Tribulation.  Fellow Believers, We will be spared living through The Darkest Days Mankind will EVER Experience!  Yes, worse than All Wars, Plagues, Diseases, Famines, Floods, etc. combined.  NOW is The Time to get right with God Almighty!  NOW is The Time to REPENT, For The Kingdom of Heaven (The Kingdom of God Almighty) IS At Hand!  NOW is The Time, to acknowledge God’s Amazing Grace AND accept God’s Free Gift of Salvation.  NOW is The Time, to accept Jesus Christ as Your Personal Lord and Savior!  NOW is The Time, to ask Your Family, Your Friends, Your Church Family, Your Co-Workers, Your Neighbors, if they are CERTAIN they have accepted Jesus Christ, as Your Personal Lord and Savior!  NOW is The Time, to Share The Gospel of Jesus Christ with ALL, who have Ears to hear AND Eyes to see, The Truth!  NOW IS The Time!
