Matthew 25 Rapture Blog

Song of Solomon 2:10 My beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away. 11 For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone; 12 The flowers appear….

From A Christian Love Story :: This is major !

Thus the Lord performed exactly in accordance with the first four feasts of Israel. He will do the same in the future, it is clear. We expect the Rapture of the Church on the fifth feast, the Feast of Trumpets (I Thess. 4: 16-17). We expect the return of the Lord to the earth for the start of the Kingdom on the Day of Atonement, when “all Israel will be saved” (Zech. 12:10, 13:1; Romans 11:26). And finally, the Lord will setup His Tabernacle in Jerusalem appropriately enough on the final feast, the Feast of Tabernacles. The tabernacles hark back to the shelters the Lord gave the children of Israel in the wilderness, and indeed the Lord’s Tabernacle will shelter us on this earth for the duration of the Kingdom. These final three feasts are explained in Leviticus 23:24, 27 and 34, respectively. Next “Paragraph” re-structured/edited by me: We say all of that above to show that the Lord, Who never omitted a Jewish feast, fulfilled each one even in:

1. His crucifixion = The symbol of Passover is the sacrifice of the lamb, and Jesus fulfilled it on the cross
2. Jesus Burial = The symbol of Unleavened Bread is the body of the Lord buried in the earth
3. His resurrection = First Fruits, which we now call “Easter”, came on Sunday (Lev. 23: 10-12), and indeed the Lord rose as the first fruits of those to be resurrected (I Cor. 15:22-23)
4. His sending of the Holy Spirit = The fourth feast is Pentecost, 50 days later (Lev. 23:15-16), and the Lord sent the Holy Spirit – in a great harvest Three thousand people were saved that day
5. The Rapture ! His return at the sound of the trumpet = We expect the Rapture of the Church on the fifth feast, the Feast of Trumpets (I Thess. 4: 16-17) (Rosh Hashana)
6. His second coming on the day when Israel atones = We expect the return of the Lord to the earth for the start of the Kingdom on The Day of Atonement, when “all Israel will be saved” (Zech. 12:10, 13:1; Romans 11:26)
7. And His establishment of His Kingdom on Tabernacles = And finally, the Lord will setup His Tabernacle in Jerusalem appropriately enough on the final feast, the Feast of Tabernacles.

The Rapture at The Feast of Trumpets – God willing ><>

Part II | Part III | Part IV | Part V | Part VI

The Marriage Supper of The Lamb — Revelation 19:9 – And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.

Psalm 16:11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

\o/ The Saints Are Happy In Heaven because they followed Christ. They rejoice with Him Forever…..

The Lord is my inheritance and my cup; He alone will give me my reward. The measuring line has marked a lovely place for me, my inheritance is my great delight.

The Rapture – A Crown Given to All Who Love Jesus Appearing!  ::: 2 Timothy4:7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: 8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.

The Bema Seat – We will receive a Reward or maybe Rewards and/or a Crown(s) — This judgment may determine our “Glory/Honor/Prestige/Status/Reigning Power/Domain” During the 1,000 Year Millennial Reign of Jesus — We may be judged on everything — Our Faithfulness and Obedience to God, in doing what God has said to do in this Life.  Examples ::: Resist Temptation, Obey, Meekness, Humility, Love, Mercy, Kindness, Fruits of The Spirit (Conduct/Behavior/Decisions) – Loving God with our whole heart, soul, mind and strength, Loving our Neighbor as our self — Evangelism, Parable of The Talents/Minas, Corporal Works of Mercy: Feeding The Poor, Clothing The Naked, Sheltering The Homeless, Visiting the Sick and Imprisoned. (Giving to Ministries that do The Corporal works of Mercy maybe just as good)

The 1,000 Year Millennial Kingdom or Millennial Reign of Jesus — We will be Kings and Priests if we are with Jesus when we leave this life, either by Death or Rapture.

Revelation 1:6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

1 Peter 2:9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation,….

The Millennial Reign is one of the best things to live for in this life, because for a 1,000 Years we will be Kings and Priests !  Depending on our Faithfulness in this life to Jesus, our Works at The Bema Seat may determine how much “Reigning Power” we will have during the Millennium. (King of maybe a town? King of a City? King of 3 cities or more? King of a State? King of a Country/Nation?)

The New Jerusalem – The “Glory” of Our Houses/Mansions could be determined possibly by how we have lived our life on earth in relation to Jesus/The Bible.

The Crown of Life — James 1:12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, (approved) he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.

Jesus Throne — (The Most Eminent of All The Blessings promised to the 7 Church’s) {To those who overcome} [resist temptation and choose/stay faithful and obey/Love Jesus] — Revelation 3:21 — To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.

New Glorified Spiritual Body ::: A post about Glory

Romans 8: 16….we are the children of God: 17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.

Eternity/The New Heaven/New Earth — God will wipe away all tears and the former things will not be remembered nor come to mind!

2 Corinthians 4:17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; 18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 :: 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. 18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
