The Rapture

Spread the love

1Thes. 4:15 “For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep.”

First, Paul says that those alive at the coming of the Lord will not proceed the believers that have already died (fallen asleep). Every Bride from the formation of the Church in the 1st century to the last Bride in this last Church Age will be there. Every brother and sister in Christ that are in fine linen clean and white… will go all together for the first time ever! I think that is worthy of a Selah! Try to stop and think about this!

This is the time to meet the Lord, when our faith becomes sight for He will come down from Heaven personally to receive His entire Bride, who has become His wife, to Himself. This is in direct fulfillment of the Jewish wedding model when the bridegroom came from his Father’s house to receive his bride and take her to the place he had prepared for her. Praised be the name of the Lord!
